On July 15, 2025, Hologic, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Hologic</u>" or the "<u>Company</u>"), together with certain of its subsidiaries, refinanced its term loan and revolving credit facility by entering into Refinancing Amendment No. 4 and Amendment to Pledge and Security Agreement (the "<u>Refinancing Amendment</u>") to its Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of October 3, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Refinancing Amendment, the "<u>Prior Credit Agreement</u>," and the Prior Credit Agreement, as amended by the Refinancing Amendment, the "<u>Amended Credit Agreement</u>"), among Hologic, certain of its subsidiaries party thereto, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and as collateral agent. The Amended Credit Agreement provides for, among other things (i) a $1.169 billion secured term loan (the "<u>Term Loan</u>") and a $1.250 billion secured revolving credit facility (the "<u>Revolver</u>" and, together with the Term Loan, the "<u>Amended Credit Facilities</u>"), (ii) a maturity date of July 15, 2030 (the "<u>Stated Maturity Date</u>") for the Term Loan and borrowings under the Revolver, representing an extension of the maturity date from the September 25, 2026 maturity date under the Prior Credit Agreement, and (iii) additional flexibility for the Company and its subsidiaries under certain covenants as compared to the corresponding covenants in the Prior Credit Agreement. All defined terms used in this Current Report on Form 8-K that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Amended Credit Agreement.

Hologic, Hologic GGO 4 Ltd, a company incorporated in England and Wales ("<u>Hologic U.K.</u>"), and Hologic UK Finance LTD, a company incorporated in England and Wales, remain as the borrowers (the "<u>Borrowers</u>") under the Amended Credit Agreement, and the Borrowers' obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement remain guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company (the "<u>Subsidiary Guarantors</u>"). The Hologic subsidiaries that are or become "Borrowers" under the Amended Credit Agreement are referred to as "<u>Designated Borrowers</u>."

The obligations of the Borrowers are secured by first-priority liens on, and a first-priority security interest in (in each case, subject to certain liens permitted under the Amended Credit Agreement), substantially all of the U.S. assets of Hologic and the Subsidiary Guarantors, including, with certain exceptions, all of the capital stock of substantially all of the domestic subsidiaries owned by the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and 65% of the capital stock of certain of the Company's first-tier foreign subsidiaries, under the terms of a pledge and security agreement with Bank of America, N.A., in its capacity as collateral agent, and other related agreements. These liens are subject to release during the term of the Amended Credit Facilities if the Company is able to achieve and maintain specified corporate or corporate family ratings and other conditions are met.

Under the Revolver, the Borrowers may borrow up to $1.250 billion, subject to the following sublimits:

• a sublimit, applicable to borrowings by Hologic U.K., equal to the lesser of (x) $250 million and (y) the aggregate revolving commitments;

• a sublimit, applicable to borrowings by certain subsidiaries of Hologic designated as Borrowers, equal to the lesser of (x) $250 million and (y) the aggregate revolving commitments (the " <u>Designated Borrower Sublimit</u> ");

• a letter of credit sublimit equal to the lesser of (x) $200 million and (y) the aggregate revolving commitments (the " <u>LC Sublimit</u> "); and

• a swing line sublimit equal to the lesser of (x) $100 million and (y) the aggregate USD revolving commitments.

------

All of the net proceeds of the Term Loan were used to repay the amounts outstanding under the term loan under the Prior Credit Agreement (the "<u>Refinancing</u>"). At the time of the Refinancing Amendment, there were no amounts outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement's revolving credit facility.

Borrowings under the Revolver may be made in certain alternative currencies pursuant to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company has the ability, subject to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, to designate any additional wholly owned foreign subsidiary of Hologic as a Designated Borrower to receive loans under the Designated Borrower Sublimit. The obligations of any Designated Borrower under the Designated Borrower Sublimit are guaranteed by Hologic and the Subsidiary Guarantors.

Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facilities, other than Swing Line Loans, bear interest, at the Company's option, at the Base Rate, at the Alternative Currency Daily Rate, at the Alternative Currency Term Rate, or as Term SOFR Loans, in each case plus the Applicable Rate.

The Applicable Rate with respect to the Base Rate, the Alternative Currency Daily Rate and the Alternative Currency Term Rate and for Daily SOFR Loans and Term SOFR Loans is subject to specified changes depending on the Total Net Leverage Ratio. The Term Loan borrowings initially bear interest at an annual rate equal to Term SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment for a one month interest period plus an Applicable Rate equal to 1.00%. Beginning on September 25, 2026, the SOFR Adjustment will be 0.00%, and 0.10% will be added to the Applicable Rate on and following September 25, 2026.

The Company is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee calculated on a daily basis as a specified per annum rate applicable as of such day multiplied by the undrawn committed amount available as of such day under the Revolver (taking into account any outstanding amounts under the LC Sublimit). The specified per annum rate in respect of the commitment fee is initially 0.15% per annum and, after September 27, 2025, is subject to adjustment to a maximum of 0.20% per annum based on the Total Net Leverage Ratio.

The Borrowers are also permitted to elect to establish additional incremental loans not to exceed the sum of (i) $1.5 billion and (ii) the maximum amount that would not cause the Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio to exceed 4.00 to 1.00, with certain exceptions for the incurrence of such incremental facilities by the Company's foreign subsidiaries.

The Company is required to make scheduled principal payments under the Term Loan in increasing amounts ranging from $2,922,500 per three-month period commencing with the three-month period ending on September 25, 2026, to $14,612,500 per three-month period commencing with the three-month period ending on September 28, 2029. The remaining balance of the Term Loan is due on the Stated Maturity Date. Any amounts outstanding under the Revolver are due on the Stated Maturity Date.

In addition, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company is required to make certain mandatory prepayments from the net proceeds of specified types of asset sales (subject to certain reinvestment rights), debt issuances and insurance recoveries (subject to certain reinvestment rights) ("<u>Mandatory Prepayments</u>"). Certain of the Mandatory Prepayments are subject to reduction or elimination if certain financial covenants are met. Mandatory Prepayments, if any, are required to be applied by the Company <u>first</u>, to the Term Loan, <u>second</u>, to any outstanding amount under any Swing Line Loans, <u>third</u>, to the Revolver, <u>fourth</u>, to prepay any outstanding reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit, and <u>fifth</u>, to cash collateralize any Letters of Credit. Subject to certain limitations, the Company may voluntarily prepay any of the Amended Credit Facilities without premium or penalty.

The Amended Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customarily applicable to senior secured credit facilities, including covenants restricting the ability of the Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors, subject to negotiated exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness and grant additional liens on their

------

assets, engage in mergers or acquisitions or dispose of assets, enter into sale-leaseback transactions, pay dividends or make other distributions, voluntarily prepay other indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliated persons, make investments, and change the nature of their businesses. In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement requires the Borrowers to maintain certain financial ratios. Certain of these covenants were modified under the Amended Credit Agreement to provide the Company with additional financial flexibility. The Amended Credit Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties and events of default, including payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross defaults and a change of control of the Company.

If an event of default under the Amended Credit Agreement occurs and is not cured within any applicable grace period or is not waived, the administrative agent under the Amended Credit Agreement would be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the Amended Credit Facilities. If the indebtedness under the Amended Credit Agreement were accelerated, the Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors may not have sufficient funds to pay such indebtedness. In that event, the lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement would be entitled to enforce their security interests in the collateral securing such indebtedness, which collateral includes substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors.

The above description of the Refinancing Amendment, including the Amended Credit Agreement, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Refinancing Amendment that is attached to this report as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

In the ordinary course of business, certain of the lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement and their affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, investment banking, commercial banking, cash management, foreign exchange or other financial services to the Company for which they have received compensation and may receive customary compensation in the future.

Each such Committed Loan Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i)<u>11:00 a.m. (i)</u> two Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars or of any conversion of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars to Base Rate Loans or Daily SOFR Loans, (ii) four Business Days (or five Business Days in the case of a Special Notice Currency) prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of Alternative Currency Loans or, in the case of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, any continuation, (iii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Daily SOFR Loans or of conversion of Base Rate Loans to Daily SOFR Loans or of conversion of Daily SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loans; *provided, however*, that if any Borrower wishes to request Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, three or six months in duration or Term SOFR Loans having an Interest Period other than one or three months in duration as provided in the definition of "<u>"</u> Interest Period,"<u>"</u> the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m<u>11:00 a.m</u>.

Not later than 11:00 a.m<u>11:00 a.m</u>., (i) three Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Term SOFR Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, or (ii) four Business Days (or five Business days in the case of a Special Notice Currency) prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Appropriate Lenders. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Alternative Currency Loans or Term SOFR Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.

requesting a Term Borrowing, a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing, a USD Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be converted, (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto, (vi) in the case of a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing, the currency of the Loans to be borrowed, and (vii) in the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing, the applicable Borrower. If the Company fails to specify a currency in a Committed Loan Notice requesting a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing, then the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans so requested shall be made in Dollars. If the Company fails to specify whether a Revolving Credit Borrowing denominated in Dollars is a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing or a USD Revolving Credit Borrowing, the applicable Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated *first*, to the USD Revolving Credit Facility to the full extent of the then unused USD Revolving Credit Commitments and *second*, to the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Facility to the full extent of the then unused Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments. If the Company fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or if the Company fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans; *provided, however*, that in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, such Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans shall be continued as Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans in their original currency with an Interest Period of one month. Any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Term SOFR Loans. If any Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) a Swing Line Loan may not be converted to a Term SOFR Loan**,** (y) no Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan may be converted into or continued as a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan and reborrowed in the other currency and (z) no Term Loan or USD Revolving Credit Loan may be converted into or continued as a Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the amount (and currency) of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans or continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, in each case as described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of a Term Borrowing or a Revolving Credit Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent's<u>Agent's</u> Office for the applicable currency not later than 1:00 p.m<u>1:00 p.m</u>., in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, in each case on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable

------

conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension on the Closing Date, Section 4.01 and if such Borrowing is a Credit Extension on the Restatement Date, Section 4.03), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Company or the other applicable Borrowers in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent by the date requested in the Committed Loan Notice either by (i)<u>(i)</u> crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii)<u>(ii)</u> wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the applicable Borrower; *provided, however*, that if, on the date a Committed Loan Notice with respect to a Revolving Credit Borrowing denominated in Dollars is given by the applicable Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and, second, shall be made available to the applicable Borrower as provided above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan or a Term SOFR Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan or Term SOFR Loan. During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be requested as, or converted to Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loans or Daily SOFR Loans or converted to or continued as Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans without the consent of the Required Lenders, and the Required Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Alternative Currency Rate Loans be, as determined by the applicable Borrower, prepaid, or redenominated into Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof, on the last day of the then current Interest Period or Interest Payment Date with respect thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be permitted to set the last day of each Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders of any change in Bank of America's<u>America's</u> prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) After giving effect to all Term Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect with respect to the Term Facility. After giving effect to all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all of the portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Company, the Administrative Agent, and such Lender.

All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof. All Letters of Credit outstanding under the Original Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Restatement Date shall remain outstanding upon this Agreement becoming effective and thereafter shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer have approved such expiry date; 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless (x) the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer have approved such expiry date or (y) such Letter of Credit is cash collateralized on terms and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer.

&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 L/C Issuer shall not 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;&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 the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Second Amendment Effective Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Second Amendment Effective Date and which the L/C Issuer 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $100,000, in the case of a commercial Letter of Credit, or $100,000, in the case of a standby 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than (x) Dollars or (y) an Alternative Currency;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E) the L/C Issuer does not, as of the issuance date of such requested Letter of Credit, issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(G) such 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The L/C Issuer shall not, at the request of the applicable Borrower, amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.

&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) The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to, at the request of the applicable Borrower, amend any Letter of Credit if the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Appropriate<u>applicable</u> Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A)<u>(A)</u> provided to the Administrative Agent in Article 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term "<u>"</u>**Administrative Agent**"<u>"</u> as used in Article 9 included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B)<u>(B)</u> as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of any Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application may be sent by email, facsimile, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the L/C Issuer, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to the L/C Issuer. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m<u>11:00 a.m</u>. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer 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. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) <u>(A)</u> the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B)<u>(B)</u> the amount and currency thereof; (C)<u>(C)</u> the expiry date thereof; (D)<u>(D)</u> the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E)<u>(E)</u> the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F)<u>(F)</u> the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G)<u>(G)</u> the purpose and nature (i.e., standby or commercial) of the requested Letter of Credit; (H)<u>(H)</u> such other

------

matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably require and (I) whether such Letter of Credit is a Multicurrency Letter of Credit or a USD Letter of Credit. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may reasonably require. Additionally, the applicable Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require.

&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) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the applicable Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Appropriate<u>applicable</u> Revolving Credit Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article 4 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer's<u>Issuer's</u> usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Multicurrency Letter of Credit, each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage *times* the amount of such Letter of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance of each USD Letter of Credit, each USD Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such USD Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage *times* the amount 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If any Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an "<u>"</u>**Auto-Extension Letter of Credit**"<u>"</u>); *provided* that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer 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>"</u>**Non-Extension Notice Date**"<u>"</u>) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, no Borrower shall be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of a Multicurrency Letter of Credit) and the USD Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of a

------

USD Letter of Credit) shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; *provided, however*, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A)<u>(A)</u> the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B)<u>(B)</u> it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1)<u>(1)</u> from the Administrative Agent that the Required Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of any Multicurrency Letter of Credit) or the Required USD Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of any USD Letter of Credit) have elected not to permit such extension or (2)<u>(2)</u> from the Administrative Agent, any Appropriate Lender or any Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) If any Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that permits the automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder (each, an "<u>"</u>**Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit**"<u>"</u>). Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, no Borrower shall be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer to permit such reinstatement. Once an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued, except as provided in the following sentence, the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of a Multicurrency Letter of Credit) and the USD Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of a USD Letter of Credit) shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit permits the L/C Issuer to decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of days after such drawing (the "<u>"</u>**Non-Reinstatement Deadline**"<u>"</u>), the L/C Issuer shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Reinstatement Deadline (A)<u>(A)</u> from the Administrative Agent that the Required Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of any Multicurrency Letter of Credit) or the Required USD Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of any USD Letter of Credit) have elected not to permit such reinstatement or (B)<u>(B)</u> from the Administrative Agent, any Appropriate Lender or any Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied (treating such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes of this clause) and, in each case, directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such reinstatement.

&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) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations</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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of a Multicurrency Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in such Alternative Currency, unless (A)<u>(A)</u> the L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B)<u>(B)</u> in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the applicable Borrower shall have notified the L/C Issuer promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the applicable Borrower will reimburse the L/C Issuer in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Multicurrency Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the L/C Issuer shall notify the applicable Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m<u>2:00 p.m</u>. on the <u>Business Day after the later of (1) the</u> date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars, or the Applicable Time on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency <u>and</u> <u>(2) (x) with respect to a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars, the date the applicable Borrower receives notice described in the immediately preceding sentence and</u><u> </u><u>(y) with respect to a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed</u> <u>in an Alternative Currency,</u> <u>the date after the day that the applicable Borrower receives notice described in the immediately preceding sentence</u> (each such date, an "<u>"</u>**Honor Date**"<u>"</u>), the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the applicable currency. In the event that (A) a drawing denominated in an Alternative Currency is to be reimbursed in Dollars pursuant to the second sentence in this Section 2.03(c)(i) and (B) the Dollar amount paid by the applicable Borrower, whether on or after the Honor Date, shall not be adequate on the date of that payment to purchase in accordance with normal banking procedures a sum denominated in the Alternative Currency equal to the drawing, the applicable Borrower agrees, as a separate and independent obligation, to indemnify the L/C Issuer for the loss resulting from its inability on that date to purchase the Alternative Currency in the full amount of the drawing. If the applicable Borrower fails to timely reimburse the L/C Issuer on the Honor Date, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Multicurrency Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) (the "<u>"</u> **Unreimbursed Amount**"<u>"</u>), and the amount of such Lender's<u>Lender's</u> Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Borrowing (in the case of any Multicurrency Letter of Credit) or a USD Borrowing (in the case of any USD Letter of Credit) of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the applicable Class of Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice<u>,</u>

------

<u>but subject to prior written confirmation of the Borrower Agent certifying to compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 4.02</u>). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; *provided* 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender (in the case of a Multicurrency Letter of Credit) and each USD Revolving Credit Lenders (in the case of a USD Letter of Credit) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the L/C Issuer, in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent's<u>Agent's</u> Office for Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m<u>1:00 p.m</u>. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan that is a Base Rate Loan to the applicable Borrower in such amount and each USD Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a USD Revolving Credit Loan that is a Base Rate Loan to the applicable Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer in Dollars.

&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) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each applicable Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Revolving Credit Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

&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) Until each applicable Revolving Credit Lender funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.

&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) Each applicable Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A)<u>(A)</u> any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B)<u>(B)</u> the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C)<u>(C)</u> any other

------

occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; *provided, however*, that each Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the applicable Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Revolving Credit Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loan or USD Revolving Credit Loan, as applicable, included in the relevant Revolving Credit Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Nothing in this Section 2.03 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment from its obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and the Borrowers shall retain any and all rights they may have against any such Revolving Credit Lender resulting from the failure of such Lender to make such Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c).

&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) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the applicable Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender (in the case of any Multicurrency Letter of Credit) and each USD Revolving Credit Lender (in the case of any USD Letter of Credit) shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Credit Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Loan Document Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Obligations Absolute</u>. The obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

&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) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

&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) 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), the L/C Issuer 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) waiver by the L/C Issuer of any requirement that exists for the L/C Issuer's<u>Issuer's</u> protection and not the protection of the Borrowers or any waiver by the L/C Issuer which does not in fact materially prejudice the Borrowers;

&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) honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any payment made by the L/C Issuer 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; 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;(ix) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower or any of its respective Subsidiaries.

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 any of the applicable Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> instructions or other irregularity, the applicable Borrower will promptly notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrowers shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Role of L/C Issuer</u>. Each Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i)<u>(i)</u> any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of all of the Required Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders, Required USD Revolving Credit Lenders, Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable; (ii)<u>(ii)</u> any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii)<u>(iii)</u> the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The applicable Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; *provided, however*, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude any applicable Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (ix) of Section 2.03(e); *provided, however*, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the applicable Borrower or its Subsidiaries may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the applicable Borrower or its Subsidiaries, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the applicable Borrower or its Subsidiaries which such Borrower or such Subsidiaries proves were caused by the L/C Issuer's<u>Issuer's</u> willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer's<u>Issuer's</u> willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit**.** In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing,

------

the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. The L/C Issuer may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication ("<u>"</u>**SWIFT**"<u>"</u>) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Applicability of ISP and UCP; Limitation of Liability</u>. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit and (ii) the rules of UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible to the applicable Borrower for, and the L/C Issuer's<u>Issuer's</u> rights and remedies against the applicable Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the L/C Issuer 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 the L/C Issuer 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 (BAFT-IFSA), 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;(h) <u>Letter of Credit Fees</u>. The applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (A) for the account of each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender in accordance, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.18, with its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage, in Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee (the "<u>"</u> **Multicurrency Letter of Credit Fee**"<u>"</u>) for each Multicurrency Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate for Revolving Credit Loans that are Term SOFR Loans *times* the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Multicurrency Letter of Credit and (B) for the account of each USD Revolving Credit Lender in accordance, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.18, with its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage, in Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee (the "<u>"</u> **USD Letter of Credit Fee**"<u>"</u>, and together with the Multicurrency Letter of Credit Fee, the "<u>"</u> **Letter of Credit Fee**"<u>"</u>) for each USD Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate for Revolving Credit Loans that are Term SOFR Loans *times* the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such USD Letter of Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.09. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the fifth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December<u>fiscal quarter</u>, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last day of such quarter. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained

------

herein, (1) upon the request of the Required Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Multicurrency Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate and (2) upon the request of the Required USD Revolving Credit Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all USD Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer</u>. The Company shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, a fronting fee**,** with respect to each Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum equal to 0.125%, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the fifth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December<u>fiscal quarter</u> in respect of the then-most recently-ended<u>recently ended</u> quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), computed as of the end of such quarter and commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.09. In addition, the Company shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <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 Company shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Company hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Company, and that the Company's<u>Company's</u> 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;(l) <u>Additional L/C Issuers</u>. The Company may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and such Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender, designate one or more additional Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lenders to act as an L/C Issuer under the terms of this Agreement (provided that there shall not be more than three (3) L/C Issuers at any one time), subject to Section 2.03(m). Any Lender designated as an L/C Issuer pursuant to this clause (l) shall be deemed to be an "<u>"</u>**L/C Issuer**"<u>"</u> (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other L/C Issuer(s) and such Lender.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) <u>L/C Issuer Reports to the Administrative Agent</u>. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section 2.03, 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) reasonably prior to the time that such L/C Issuer 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) on each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer 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;&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 L/C Issuer 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;&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 L/C Issuer; 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;(v) for so long as any Letter of Credit issued by an L/C Issuer is outstanding, such L/C Issuer shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) on the last Business Day of each calendar month, (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 L/C Issuer.

<u>Section 2.04.</u> Section 2.04. <u>Swing Line Loans</u>. <u>.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>The Swing Line</u>. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, to make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a "<u>"</u>**Swing Line Loan**"<u>"</u>) to the Borrowers from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period with respect to the USD Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of USD Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender's<u>Lender's</u> USD Revolving Credit Commitment; *provided, however*, that (x) after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i)<u>(i)</u> the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and (ii)<u>(ii)</u> the USD Revolving Credit Exposure of any USD Revolving Credit Lender shall not exceed such USD Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> USD Revolving Credit Commitment, (y) the Borrowers shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan, and (z) the Swing Line Lender shall not be under any obligation to make any Swing Line Loan if it shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that it has, or by such Credit Extension may have, Fronting Exposure. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow

------

under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. For the avoidance of doubt, Swing Line Loans made to the U.K. Borrower shall be made under the U.K. Borrower Sublimit, Swing Line Loans made to the Designated Borrowers shall be made under the Designated Borrower Sublimit and Swing Line Loans made to the Company shall be made under the Revolving Credit Facility. Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest only at a rate based on the Base Rate. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each USD Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such USD Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Borrowing Procedures</u>. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon any Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone or (B) by a Swing line<u>Line</u> Loan Notice; *provided* that any telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a Swing Line Loan Notice. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m<u>1:00 p.m</u>. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i)<u>(i)</u> the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum principal amount of $100,000, (ii)<u>(ii)</u> the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day and (iii) the applicable Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any USD Revolving Credit Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m<u>2:00 p.m</u>. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A)<u>(A)</u> directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B)<u>(B)</u> that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article 4 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m<u>3:00 p.m</u>. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrowers at its office by crediting the account of the applicable Borrower on the books of the Swing Line Lender in Same Day Funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Refinancing of Swing Line Loans</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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole discretion may request, on behalf of the applicable Borrower (each of which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each USD Revolving Credit Lender make a USD Revolving Credit Loan that is a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such USD Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding for the account of such Borrower. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion

------

of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the applicable Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each USD Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral of the applicable Borrower available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan) for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent's<u>Agent's</u> Office for Dollar-denominated payments not later than 1:00 p.m<u>1:00 p.m</u>. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each USD Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the applicable Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line 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;(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a USD Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the USD Revolving Credit Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each USD Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If any USD Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such USD Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such USD Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such USD Revolving Credit Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such USD Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> USD Revolving Credit Loan included in the relevant USD Revolving Credit Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any USD Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Each USD Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> obligation to make USD Revolving Credit Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A)<u>(A)</u> any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such USD Revolving Credit Lender may have against the

------

Swing Line Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B)<u>(B)</u> the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C)<u>(C)</u> any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; *provided, however*, that each USD Revolving Credit Lender's<u>Lender's</u> obligation to make USD Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of any Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans made for such Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> account, together with interest as provided herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Repayment of Participations</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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) At any time after any USD Revolving Credit Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such USD Revolving Credit Lender its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

repatriation to the United States (the Company hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of all applicable additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05 (if so required) to the extent provided herein or (B) to the extent that the Company has determined in good faith that repatriation of any or all of the Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition would have a material adverse tax cost consequence (taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation) with respect to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, the Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary,<u>;</u> *provided* that, in the case of this clause (B), on or before the date on which any Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(i) or 2.05(c)(ii), (x) the Company shall apply an amount equal to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds to such reinvestments or prepayments as if such Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds had been received by the Company rather than such Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds that would be calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary), or (y) such Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds shall be applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a Foreign Subsidiary, in each case, other than as mutually agreed by the Company and the Administrative Agent (it being understood and agreed that to the extent any amount is applied pursuant to clause (x) or (y) above, such payment shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements under Section 2.05(c)(i) and/or 2.05(c)(ii), as applicable)**.** Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (ix), to the extent the U.K. Borrower has any Loans outstanding under the U.K. Borrower Sublimit hereunder, any Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds of the U.K. Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries shall not be subject to this Section 2.05(c)(ix) and therefore, the U.K. Borrower shall be required to apply such Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds to its outstanding Loans to the extent the Company would have been required to prepay its Loans under this Section 2.05 as if the U.K. Borrower were the Company thereunder (subject, in the case of Net Asset Sale Proceeds and Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, to the applicable reinvestment rights set forth in Sections 2.05(c)(i) and 2.05(c)(ii), as applicable).

Subsidiaries shall not be subject to this Section 2.05(c)(ix) and therefore, such Designated Borrower shall be required to apply such Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds to its outstanding Loans to the extent the Company would have been required to prepay its Loans under this Section 2.05 as if such Designated Borrower were the Company thereunder (subject, in the case of Net Asset Sale Proceeds and Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, to the applicable reinvestment rights set forth in Sections 2.05(c)(i) and 2.05(c)(ii), as applicable).

<u>Section 2.09.</u> <u>Fees</u>*Fees*. In addition to certain fees described in subsections (h) and (i) of Section 2.03:

&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 Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent (x) for the account of each Multicurrency Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage, a commitment fee (the "<u>"</u>**Multicurrency Commitment Fee**"<u>"</u>) in Dollars calculated on a daily basis equal to the Applicable Rate as of such day *times* the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Multicurrency Revolving Commitments exceed the sum as of such day of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations with respect to Multicurrency Letters of Credit, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.18 and (y) for the account of each USD Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage, a commitment fee (the "<u>"</u>**USD Commitment Fee**"<u>"</u>, and together with the Multicurrency Commitment Fee, the "<u>"</u>**Commitment Fee**"<u>"</u>) in Dollars calculated on a daily basis equal to the Applicable Rate as of such day *times* the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate USD Revolving Commitments exceed the sum as of such day of (i) the Outstanding Amount of USD Revolving Credit Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations with respect to USD Letters of Credit, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.18. For the avoidance of doubt, the Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans shall not be counted towards or considered usage of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments for purposes of determining the Commitment Fee. The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period with respect to the applicable Facility, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in

------

Article 4 is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the fifth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December<u>fiscal quarter</u>, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Restatement<u>Fourth Amendment Effective</u> Date, and on the last day of the applicable Availability Period. The Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears on the last day of such quarter, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Other Fees</u>. (i) The Company shall pay to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts, in Dollars, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

&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) The Company shall pay to the Lenders, in Dollars, such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

<u>Section 2.10.</u> Section 2.10. <u>Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate.</u> (a) <u>(a)</u> All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Term SOFR) and for Alternative Currency Loans, shall be made on the basis of actual days elapsed in a 365-day year or 366-day year, as the case may be, or, in the case of interest in respect of Alternative Currency Loans as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid,; *provided* that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. With respect to all Alternative Currencies, the calculation of the applicable interest rate shall be determined in accordance with market practice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Company or for any other reason, the Company or the Lenders determine that (i)<u>(i)</u> the Total Net Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Company as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii)<u>(ii)</u> a proper calculation of the Total Net Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the applicable Borrowers shall retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or similar law in any other jurisdiction, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under

------

Section 2.03(c)(iii), 2.03(h) or 2.08(b) or under Article 8. The Company's<u>Company's</u> obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

<u>Section 2.11.</u> Section 2.11. <u>Evidence of Debt</u>. (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to each applicable Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to their respective Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender to a Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender's<u>Lender's</u> Loans to such Borrower in addition to such accounts or records<u>; *provided* that such Lender (or its applicable registered assign) shall be required to return such Note to the applicable Borrowers in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 10.06(b) and upon the occurrence of the Facilities Termination Date (or as promptly thereafter as practicable)</u>. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

<u>Section 2.12.</u> Section 2.12. <u>Payments Generally; Administrative</u> *Agent's*<u>Agent's</u> <u>Clawback</u>. <u>.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent's<u>Agent's</u> Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m<u>2:00 p.m</u>. on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent's<u>Agent's</u> Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates

------

specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage in respect of the applicable Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender's<u>Lender's</u> Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent (i) after 2:00 p.m<u>2:00 p.m</u>., in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) (i) <u>Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent</u>. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Alternative Currency Loans or Term SOFR Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Daily SOFR Loans, 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<u>Lender's</u> share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Daily SOFR Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower 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 Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A)<u>(A)</u> in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B)<u>(B)</u> in the case of a payment to be made by such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such 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<u>Lender's</u> Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by such Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent</u>. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that such Borrower will not make such

------

payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Appropriate Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Appropriate Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in Same Day 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 Overnight Rate.

With respect to any payment that the Administrative Agent makes for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer 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>"</u>**Rescindable Amount**"<u>"</u>): (1) any Borrower has not in fact made such payment; (2) the Administrative Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount so paid by a Borrower (whether or not then owed); or (3) the Administrative agent<u>Agent</u> has for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, 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 the L/C Issuer, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Company with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) 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;(c) <u>Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent</u>. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender to any Borrower as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article 2, and such funds are not made available to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article 4 are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Obligations of</u> <u>the</u> <u>Lenders Several.</u> The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Funding Source</u>. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Insufficient Funds</u>. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied, subject to Section 2.20, (i)<u>(i)</u> 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)<u>(ii)</u> second, toward payment of principal and L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and L/C Borrowings then due to such parties.

<u>Section 2.13.</u> Section 2.13. <u>Sharing of Payments by Lenders</u>. Subject to Section 2.20, if any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (a)<u>(a)</u> Loan Document Obligations due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i)<u>(i)</u> the amount of such Loan Document Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (ii)<u>(ii)</u> the aggregate amount of the Loan Document Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Loan Document Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (b)<u>(b)</u> Loan Document Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i)<u>(i)</u> the amount of such Loan Document Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (ii)<u>(ii)</u> the aggregate amount of the Loan Document Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payment on account of the Loan Document Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Loan Document Obligations then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be,<u>;</u> *provided* 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>(i)</u> (i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>(ii)</u> (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of any Borrower 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), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.17, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant.

------

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, and in all cases subject to Section 2.20, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such 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;(a) The Company may at any time, upon not less than 10 Business Days'' notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), designate any additional wholly-owned<u>wholly owned</u> Foreign Subsidiary of the Company (an "<u>"</u>**Applicant Borrower**"<u>"</u>) as a Designated Borrower to receive Revolving Credit Loans hereunder in Dollars or, in the case of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Loans, in any Alternative Currency in an aggregate Outstanding Amount not to exceed the Designated Borrower Sublimit, by delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver counterparts thereof to each Lender) a duly executed notice and agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit H (a "<u>"</u> **Designated Borrower Request and Assumption Agreement**"<u>"</u>). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Borrower becoming entitled to utilize the credit facilities provided for herein the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders shall have received such supporting Organizational Documents, board and<u>resolutions,</u> shareholder resolutions <u>(in respect of any Applicant Borrower incorporated under the laws of England and Wales)</u>, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as may be required by the Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, consistent with the documentation delivered on the Closing Date with respect to the U.K. Borrower (with such amendments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require), and Notes signed by such Applicant Borrowers to the extent any applicable Revolving Credit Lenders so require. If the Administrative Agent and the Required Revolving Credit Lenders agree that an Applicant Borrower shall be entitled to receive Revolving Credit Loans hereunder (it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent and the Required Revolving Credit Lenders shall not fail to so agree solely as a result of the jurisdiction of organization of any Applicant Borrower being the United Kingdom), then promptly following receipt of all such requested resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, the Administrative Agent shall send a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit I (a "<u>"</u>**Designated Borrower Notice**"<u>"</u>) to the Company and the Revolving Credit Lenders specifying the effective date upon which the Applicant Borrower shall constitute a Designated Borrower for purposes hereof, whereupon each of the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders agree to permit such Designated Borrower to receive the applicable Revolving Credit Loans hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and each of the parties agrees that such Designated Borrower otherwise shall be a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement; *provided* that (i) no Committed Loan Notice or Letter of Credit Application may be submitted by or on behalf of such Designated Borrower until the date five Business Days after such effective date and (ii) no Designated Borrower Request and Assumption Agreement shall become effective as to any Applicant Borrower if any Revolving Credit Lender under the

applicable Revolving Credit Facility shall be prohibited under applicable Law, regulation or existing internal "<u>"</u>know-your-customer"<u>"</u> policy, or shall not be licensed, to make the applicable Revolving Credit Loans or otherwise extend credit to such Applicant Borrower as provided herein, subject to the Company's<u>Company's</u> right to replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Obligations of the Designated Borrowers shall be several in nature.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The U.K. Borrower and each Subsidiary of the Company that becomes a "<u>"</u> **Designated Borrower**"<u>"</u> pursuant to this Section 2.14 hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including (i)<u>(i)</u> the giving and receipt of notices (including, without limitation, any notices relating to the service of process pursuant to Section 10.14(d)), (ii)<u>(ii)</u> the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto, and (iii)<u>(iii)</u> the receipt of the proceeds of any Loans made by the Lenders to the U.K. Borrower or any such Designated Borrower hereunder, but such appointment does not limit the right of each Designated Borrower to take these actions directly for its own account; *provided*, that in the event that the Administrative Agent shall receive conflicting instructions from the Company and the U.K. Borrower or a Designated Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall follow the instruction of the Company. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all Borrowers, or by each Borrower acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Company, whether or not any such other Borrower joins therein. Any notice, demand, consent, acknowledgement<u>acknowledgment</u> , direction, certification or other communication delivered to the Company in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Designated Borrower and the U.K. Borrower, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Company may from time to time, upon not less than five (5) Business Days'<u>'</u> notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), terminate a Designated Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> status as such,<u>;</u> *provided* that there are no outstanding Loans payable by such Designated Borrower, or other amounts payable by such Designated Borrower on account of any Loans made to it, as of the effective date of such termination. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such termination of a Designated Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> status. For the avoidance of doubt, the termination of the status of the Designated Borrower shall not, in and of itself, reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Designated Borrower Sublimit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Company may from time to time, upon not less than three (3) Business Days'<u>'</u> notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), terminate the U.K. Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> status as a Borrower,<u>;</u> *provided* that there are no outstanding Loans payable by the U.K. Borrower, or other amounts payable by the U.K. Borrower on account of any Loans made to it, as of the effective date of such termination. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such termination of the U.K. Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> status as a Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, the termination of the status of the U.K. Borrower shall not, in and of itself, reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments or the U.K. Borrower Sublimit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Borrowers may from time to time, pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.15, agree with one or more Lenders holding Loans and Commitments of any Class (an "<u>"</u> **Existing Class**"<u>"</u>) to extend the maturity date and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.15 (each such modification, an "<u>"</u>**Extension**"<u>"</u>) pursuant to one or more written offers (each an "<u>"</u>**Extension Offer**"<u>"</u>) made from time to time by the applicable Borrower to all Lenders under any Class that is proposed to be extended under this Section 2.15, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the relative principal amounts of the outstanding Loans and Commitments of each Lender in such Class) and on the same terms to each such Lender. In connection with each Extension, the applicable Borrower will provide notification to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Lenders of the applicable Class) no later than 30 days prior to the maturity date of the applicable Class to be extended of the requested new maturity date for the extended Loans or Commitments of such Class (each an "<u>"</u>**Extended Maturity Date**"<u>"</u>) and the due date for Lender responses. In connection with any Extension, each Lender of the applicable Class wishing to participate in such Extension shall, prior to such due date, provide the Administrative Agent with a written notice thereof in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any Lender that does not respond to an Extension Offer by the applicable due date shall be deemed to have rejected such Extension. In connection with any Extension, the applicable Borrower shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be reasonably established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.15.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) After giving effect to any Extension, the Term Loans, Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or USD Revolving Credit Commitments so extended shall cease to be a part of the Class that they were a part of immediately prior to the Extension and shall be a new Class hereunder; *provided* that at no time shall there be more than four different Classes of Term Loans and six different classes of Revolving Credit Commitments; *provided<u>,</u> further*, *that*, in the case of any Extension Amendment relating to a Class of Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Loans, (i)<u>(i)</u> all borrowings and all prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans of such Class shall continue to be made on a ratable basis among all Revolving Credit Lenders of such Class, based on the relative amounts of their Revolving Credit Commitments, until the repayment of the Revolving Credit Loans of such Class (and termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class) attributable to the non-extended Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class on the relevant maturity date, (ii)<u>(ii)</u> the allocation of the participation exposure with respect to any then-existing or subsequently issued or made Letter of Credit or Swing Line Loan as between the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of such new "<u>"</u> **Class**"<u>"</u> and the remaining Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a ratable basis in accordance with the relative amounts thereof until the maturity date relating to such non-extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments has occurred, (iii)<u>(iii)</u> no termination of Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments and no repayment of Loans under Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permitted unless such termination or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is

------

accompanied by at least a pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding pro rata permanent reduction), as applicable, of the Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments and Loans under Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments (or all Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class and related Loans under Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments shall have otherwise been terminated and repaid in full), (iv) no termination of Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments and no repayment of Loans under Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permitted unless such termination or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is accompanied by at least a pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding pro rata permanent reduction), as applicable, of the Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments and Loans under Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments (or all Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class and related Loans under Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments shall have otherwise been terminated and repaid in full), (v) with respect to Letters of Credit, the maturity date with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments may not be extended without the prior written consent of the L/C Issuer and (vi) with respect to Swing Line Loans, the maturity date with respect to the USD Revolving Credit Commitments may not be extended without the prior written consent of the Swing Line Lender. If the Total Multicurrency Revolving Credit Outstandings exceeds the Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitment as a result of the occurrence of the maturity date with respect to any Class of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments while an extended Class of Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments remains outstanding, the applicable Borrower shall make such payments as are necessary in order to eliminate such excess on such maturity date. If the Total USD Revolving Credit Outstandings exceeds the USD Revolving Credit Commitment as a result of the occurrence of the maturity date with respect to any Class of USD Revolving Credit Commitments while an extended Class of USD Revolving Credit Commitments remains outstanding, the applicable Borrower shall make such payments as are necessary in order to eliminate such excess on such maturity date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The consummation and effectiveness of each Extension shall be subject to the following:

&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) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time any Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders or at the time of 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Term Loans, Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or USD Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, of any Lender extended pursuant to any Extension (as applicable, "<u>"</u>**Extended Term Loans**"<u>"</u>, "<u>"</u> **Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments**"<u>"</u> or "<u>"</u>**Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments**"<u>"</u>) shall have the same terms as the Class of Term Loans, Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or USD Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment (as applicable, "<u>"</u> **Existing Term Loans**"<u>"</u>, "<u>"</u>**Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments**"<u>"</u> or "<u>"</u>**Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments**"<u>"</u>); except (A) (1)<u>(A) (1)</u> the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension shall be later than the Maturity Date of the Class of

Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment, (2)<u>(2)</u> the weighted average life to maturity of any Extended Term Loans of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the Class of Existing Term Loans subject to the related Extension Amendment and (3)<u>(3)</u> there shall be no scheduled amortization of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and the scheduled termination date of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall not be earlier than the scheduled termination date of the Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable; (B)<u>(B)</u> the Weighted Average Yield with respect to the Extended Term Loans, Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, may be higher or lower than the Weighted Average Yield for the Existing Term Loans, Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable; (C)<u>(C)</u> the revolving credit commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments may be higher or lower than the revolving credit commitment fee rate for Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (D)<u>(D)</u> no repayment of any Extended Term Loans shall be permitted unless such repayment is accompanied by an at least pro rata repayment of all earlier maturing Term Loans (including previously extended Term Loans) (or all earlier maturing Term Loans (including previously extended Term Loans) shall otherwise be or have been terminated and repaid in full); (E)<u>(E)</u> the Extended Term Loans, Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments may contain a "<u>"</u>most favored nation"<u>"</u> provision for the benefit of Lenders holding previously Extended Term Loans, previously Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or previously Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable; (F)<u>(F)</u> such Extended Term Loans, Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments will rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the Existing Term Loans, Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable; (G)<u>(G)</u> such Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be guaranteed by the Guaranty; and (H)<u>(H)</u> the other terms and conditions applicable to Extended Term Loans, Extended Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Extended USD Revolving Credit Commitments may be different than those with respect to the Existing Term Loans, Existing Multicurrency Revolving Credit Commitments or Existing USD Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, so long as such terms and conditions only apply after the Latest 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing and reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and all written communications by the Borrowers generally directed to the applicable Lenders under the applicable Class in connection therewith shall be in form and substance consistent with the foregoing;

------

&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) a minimum amount in respect of such Extension (to be determined in the applicable Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> discretion and specified in the relevant Extension Offer, but in no event less than $25,000,000, unless a lesser amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent) shall be satisfied; 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;(v) no Extension shall become effective unless, on the proposed effective date of such Extension, the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such Section to a Credit Date being deemed to be references to the Extension on the applicable date of such Extension) or waived by the Lenders whose Loans are being extended pursuant to such Extension, and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated the applicable date of such Extension and executed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the provisions of Section 2.13 and Section 10.01 will not apply to Extensions of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to Extension Offers made pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.15, including to any payment of interest or fees in respect of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, that have been extended pursuant to an Extension at a rate or rates different from those paid or payable in respect of Loans or Commitments of any other Class, in each case as is set forth in the relevant Extension Offer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) No Lender who rejects any request for an Extension shall be deemed a Non-Consenting Lender for purposes of Section 10.13; *provided, however*, that if so requested by any Borrower in an Extension Offer, the Required Lenders may approve an amendment to have such Lenders be deemed Non-Consenting Lenders and subject to the terms and conditions of Section 10.13.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments (collectively, "<u>"</u> **Extension Amendments**"<u>"</u>) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Company, in order to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.15, including any amendments necessary to establish new Classes of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, created pursuant to an Extension, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.15; *provided* that no such Extension Amendment shall effect any amendments that would require the consent of each affected Lender pursuant to Section 10.01 without compliance with the requirements thereof.

Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extension, (i) [reserved] and (ii) the applicable Borrower shall deliver board resolutions, secretary's<u>secretary's</u> certificates, officer's<u>officer's</u> certificates and other documents as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith and legal opinion(s) of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

that Lender is not or has ceased to be a 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 Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority.

A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

<u>If a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 3.01(f)(v), then such Lender shall be treated for the</u> <u>purposes of this Agreement</u> <u>(including by each Borrower) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent (</u><u>and the Administrative Agent</u><u>, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Borrower) of its status under this Section 3.01(f)(v).</u> <u>For the avoidance of doubt,</u> <u>an Assignment and Assumption shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 3.01(f)(v).</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>(g)</u> (f) <u>Treatment of Certain Refunds</u>. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or the L/C Issuer, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be. If any Recipient determines, in its sole<u>reasonable</u> discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to such Loan Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all

------

<u>reasonable</u> out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund),<u>;</u> *provided* that each Loan Party, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to such Loan Party pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax<u>after Tax</u> position <u>taking account of its Tax liabilities</u> than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan 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;<u>(h)</u> (g) <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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) All amounts expressed to be payable under a Loan Document by any Loan Party to a Recipient 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 paragraph (ii) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Recipient to any Loan Party under a Loan Document and such Recipient is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Loan Party must pay to such Recipient (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 such<u>subject to the relevant</u> Recipient must promptly provide<u>providing</u> 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Recipient (the "<u>"</u> **Supplier**"<u>"</u>) to any other Recipient (the "<u>"</u>**Receiving Party**"<u>"</u>) under a Loan Document, and any Loan Party other than the Receiving Party (the "<u>"</u>**Relevant Party**"<u>"</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 Receiving Party 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;&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 Receiving Party must (where this paragraph (i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Receiving Party receives <u>or obtains</u> from the relevant tax authority which the Receiving Party reasonably determines 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) (where the Receiving Party is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Receiving Party, pay to the Receiving Party an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Receiving Party reasonably determines 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Where a Loan Document requires any Loan Party to reimburse or indemnify a Recipient for any cost or expense, that Loan Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Recipient for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Recipient reasonably determines 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Any reference in this Section 3.01(g<u>h</u>) to any Loan Party shall, at any time when such Loan Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the Person who is treated as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under the grouping rules (as provided for in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC or as implemented by a European Member State, or equivalent provisions in any other 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) In relation to any supply made by a Recipient to any Loan Party under a Loan Document, if reasonably requested by such Recipient, that Loan Party must promptly provide such Recipient with details of that Loan Party's<u>Party's</u> VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Recipient's<u>Recipient's</u> 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 3.01(g<u>h</u>) shall be subject to Sections 2.20 and 2.21.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>(i)</u> (h) <u>Survival</u>. Each party's<u>party's</u> obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

<u>Section 3.02. Illegality</u>*Illegality*. If any Lender reasonably determines that any <u>Change in</u> Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted <u>after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date</u> that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to a Relevant Rate or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Relevant Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Company through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Alternative Currency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or Term SOFR Loans, make or maintain Daily SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans or Daily SOFR Loans, as applicable, shall be, in each case suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if

------

necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist <u>(which notice such Lender agrees to give promptly)</u>. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Borrower(s) shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay Alternative Currency Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, if applicable and such Loans are denominated in Dollars, convert all Term SOFR Loans or Daily SOFR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (or, to the extent such notice is applicable only to Term SOFR Loans, converted to Daily SOFR Loans) (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate), in each case, immediately, or, in the case of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans to such day, as applicable and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon Term SOFR Screen Rate the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Term SOFR component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Term SOFR Screen Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower(s) shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05 hereof.

<u>Section 3.03.</u> Section 3.03. <u>Inability to Determine Rates</u>. <u>.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If in connection with any request for an Alternative Currency Loan, Daily SOFR Loan or Term SOFR Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (i) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) no Successor Rate for the Relevant Rate has been determined in accordance with Section 3.03(b) and the circumstances under <u>Section 3.03(b)(i)</u>, <u>(ii)</u> or <u>(iii)</u> have occurred with respect to such Relevant Rate (as applicable) or (B) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Relevant Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency for any determination date(s) or any requested Interest Period, as applicable, with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan, Daily SOFR Loan or an Alternative Currency Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders reasonably determine that for any reason the Relevant Rate with respect to a proposed Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency for any requested Interest Period or date of determination with respect to a proposed Alternative Currency Loan, Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Alternative Currency Loan, Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan, as applicable, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Alternative Currency Loans, Term SOFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan in the affected currency or currencies, as applicable, or to convert Base Rate Loans to Daily SOFR Loans or Term SOFR Loans, shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Alternative Currency Loans, Term SOFR Loans, Daily SOFR Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) 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 clause (ii) of this Section 3.03(a), until the Administrative Agent, upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Company may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Alternative Currency Loans in the affected currency or currencies or Term SOFR Loans or Daily SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected Alternative Currency Rate Loans, Term SOFR Loans, Daily SOFR Loans, Interest Periods or determination date(s)), or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount specified therein and (ii) (A) any outstanding Daily SOFR Loans shall be deemed to have been converted to Base Rate Loans immediately, (B) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Loans shall be converted to Base Rate Loans (or, to the extent such notice is applicable only to Term SOFR Loans, converted to Daily SOFR Loans) at the end of the applicable Interest Period, (C) any outstanding affected Alternative Currency Loans, at the Company's<u>Company's</u> election, shall either (1) be converted into a Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such outstanding Alternative Currency Loan immediately, in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan or at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan or (2) be prepaid in full immediately, in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan, or at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan; *provided* that if no election is made by the Company (x) in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan, by the date that is three Business Days after receipt by the Company of such notice or (y) in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, by the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, the Company shall be deemed to have elected option (1) above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) 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 applicable Borrower(s) or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the applicable Borrower(s) 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Relevant Rate for an Agreed Currency because the Relevant Rate (or, to the extent there is more than one Relevant Rate for such Agreed Currency, all Relevant Rates) for such Agreed Currency or none of the tenors of such Relevant Rate (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) is 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Applicable Authority has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for an Agreed Currency (or, to the extent there is more than one Relevant Rate for such Agreed Currency, all Relevant Rates) (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) 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,<u>;</u> *provided* that, in each case, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that will continue to provide such representative tenor(s) of the Relevant Rate for such Agreed Currency (the latest date on which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for such Agreed Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) are no longer representative or available permanently or indefinitely) (such specific date, the "<u>"</u> **Scheduled Unavailability Date**"<u>"</u>), or

or if the events or circumstances of the type described in <u>Section 3.03(b)(i)</u>, <u>(ii)</u> or <u>(iii)</u> have occurred with respect to a Successor Rate then in effect, then, 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 applicable Borrower(s) may amend this Agreement to replace the Relevant Rate for an Agreed Currency in accordance with this Section 3.03 with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar syndicated credit facilities 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 syndicated credit facilities and denominated in such Alternative 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>"</u> **Successor Rate**"<u>"</u>), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m<u>5:00 p.m</u>. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the applicable Borrower(s) unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment. Such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; *provided* 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 (after consulting with the Company).

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

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 Alternative Currency Conforming Changes or USD Conforming Changes, as applicable, from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Alternative Currency Conforming Changes or USD Conforming Changes, as applicable, will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; *provided* that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Alternative Currency Conforming Changes or USD Conforming Changes, as applicable, to the Company and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that in no event shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender, participant or prospective Lender is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans or Commitments, or any disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution.

&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 Company and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender's<u>Lender's</u> 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 Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; *provided*, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender's<u>Lender's</u> 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 subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section. If any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note to the assigning Lender, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrowers shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender <u>(in accordance with and subject to Section 2.11)</u>, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Revolving Credit Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender. <u>Any</u> <u>assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section 10.06.</u>

The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's<u>Agent's</u> Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register in which it shall record the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "<u>"</u> **Register**"<u>"</u>). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers 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;(d) <u>Participations</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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or the Company or any of the Company's<u>Company's</u> Affiliates or Subsidiaries and, to the extent the list thereof has been made available to all Lenders, any Disqualified Institution) (each, a "<u>"</u>**Participant**"<u>"</u>) in all or a portion of such Lender's<u>Lender's</u> rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender's<u>Lender's</u> participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); *provided* that (ii) such Lender's<u>(ii) such Lender's</u> obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (iii)<u>(iii)</u> such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iv)<u>(iv)</u> the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's<u>Lender's</u> rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.04(c) without regard to the existence of any participation.

&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;<u>(ii)</u> (v) (ii) Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; *provided* that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in Section 10.01(b), (c), (d), or (i) that affects such Participant. The Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.01(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells

the participation) <u>and Section 3.01(f))</u>) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.06(b) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; *provided* that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections <u>3.01,</u> 3.06 and 10.13 as if it were an assignee under Section 10.06(b) and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01 or 3.04, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Company's<u>Company's</u> request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.06 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; *provided* that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, 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<u>Participant's</u> interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "<u>"</u>**Participant Register**"<u>"</u>); *provided* that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's<u>Participant's</u> interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except <u>to the Borrower as contemplated by this Section 10.06(d)(ii) or</u> to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the 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;(e) <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 (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank; *provided* that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 10.06(b), Bank of America may, (i)<u>(i)</u> upon 30 days'<u>'</u> notice to the Company and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (ii)<u>(ii)</u> upon 30 days'<u>'</u> notice to the Company, resign as Swing Line Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

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

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Obligation or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "<u>"</u> **QFC Credit Support**"<u>"</u>, and each such QFC, a "<u>"</u>**Supported QFC**"<u>"</u>), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "<u>"</u>**U.S. Special Resolution Regimes**"<u>"</u>) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a "<u>"</u> **Covered Party**"<u>"</u>) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

**<u>GUARANTY</u>**

<u>Section 11.01.</u> <u>Guaranty of the Obligations</u>*Guaranty of the Obligations*. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.02, the Guarantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or other applicable Debtor Relief Laws) (collectively, the "<u>"</u>**Guaranteed Obligations**"<u>"</u>).

<u>Section 11.02.</u> Section 11.02. <u>Contribution by Guarantors</u>. All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the "<u>"</u>**Contributing Guarantors**"<u>"</u>), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a "<u>"</u>**Funding Guarantor**"<u>"</u>) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor's<u>Guarantor's</u> Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. " <u>"</u>**Fair Share**"<u>"</u> means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a)<u>(a)</u> the ratio of (i)<u>(i)</u> the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii)<u>(ii)</u> the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by (b)<u>(b)</u> the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the obligations Guaranteed. " <u>"</u>**Fair Share Contribution Amount**"<u>"</u> means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; *provided*, solely for purposes of calculating the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 11.02, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing

------

Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. "<u>"</u> **Aggregate Payments**"<u>"</u> means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1)<u>(1)</u> the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including in respect of this Section 11.02), *minus* (2)<u>(2)</u> the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 11.02. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 11.02 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 11.02.

<u>Section 11.03.</u> Section 11.03. <u>Payment by Guarantors</u>. Subject to Section 11.02, the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Secured Party may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of any Borrower to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a) or other applicable Debtor Relief Laws), the Guarantors will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for any Borrower's<u>Borrower's</u> becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Debtor Relief Laws, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against such Borrower for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to the Secured Parties as aforesaid.

<u>Section 11.04.</u> Section 11.04. <u>Liability of Guarantors Absolute</u>. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectability. This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Administrative Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between any Borrower and any Secured Party with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Borrowers and the obligations of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of the Borrowers, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against any Borrower or any of such other guarantors and whether or not any Borrower is joined in any such action or actions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor's<u>Guarantor's</u> liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor's<u>Guarantor's</u> covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor's<u>Guarantor's</u> liability hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) any Secured Party, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor's<u>Guarantor's</u> liability hereunder, from time to time may (i)<u>(i)</u> renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii)<u>(ii)</u> settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii)<u>(iii)</u> request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv)<u>(iv)</u> release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v)<u>(v)</u> enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Secured Party in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Secured Party may have against any such security, in each case as such Secured Party in its discretion may determine consistent herewith or the applicable Hedge Agreement or Cash Management Agreement and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi)<u>(vi)</u> exercise any other rights available to it under the Loan Documents, any Hedge Agreements or any Cash Management Agreements, as applicable; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) this Guaranty and the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) <u>(i)</u> any failure or omission to assert or enforce or

------

agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Loan Documents, any Hedge Agreements, any Cash Management Agreements, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii)<u>(ii)</u> any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Loan Documents, any of the Hedge Agreements, <u>or</u> any of the Cash Management Agreements or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Loan Document, such Hedge Agreement, such Cash Management Agreement or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii)<u>(iii)</u> the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv)<u>(iv)</u> the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Loan Documents or any of the Hedge Agreements or Cash Management Agreements or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Secured Party might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v)<u>(v)</u> any Secured Party's<u>Party's</u> consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi)<u>(vi)</u> any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii)<u>(vii)</u> any defenses, set offs or counterclaims which any Borrower may allege or assert against any Secured Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii)<u>(viii)</u> any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

<u>Section 11.05.</u> Section 11.05. <u>Waivers by Guarantors</u>. Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of the Secured Parties: (a) <u>(a)</u> any right to require any Secured Party, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i)<u>(i)</u> proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii)<u>(ii)</u> proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii)<u>(iii)</u> proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Secured Party in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or (iv)<u>(iv)</u> pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; (b)<u>(b)</u> any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of any Borrower or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c)<u>(c)</u> any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d)<u>(d)</u> any defense based upon any Secured Party's<u>Party's</u> errors or omissions in the

------

administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i)<u>(e) (i)</u> any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor's<u>Guarantor's</u> obligations hereunder, (ii)<u>(ii)</u> the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor's<u>Guarantor's</u> liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii)<u>(iii)</u> any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims and (iv)<u>(iv)</u> promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f)<u>(f)</u> notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder, the Hedge Agreements, the Cash Management Agreements or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to any Borrower and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 11.04 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g)<u>(g)</u> any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof.

<u>Section 11.06.</u> Section 11.06. <u>Guarantors</u>*'*<u>'</u> <u>Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, Etc.</u> Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled<u>Facilities Termination Date</u>, each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including (i)<u>(i)</u> any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii)<u>(ii)</u> any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Secured Party now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower and (iii)<u>(iii)</u> any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled<u>canceled</u>, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations, including any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 11.02. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against any Borrower or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Secured Party may have against any Borrower, to all right, title and interest any Secured Party may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Secured Party may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been finally and indefeasibly paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.

------

<u>Section 11.07.</u> <u>Subordination of Other Obligations</u>*Subordination of Other Obligations*. Any Indebtedness of any Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the "<u>"</u> **Obligee Guarantor**"<u>"</u>) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties and shall, upon acceleration of the Obligations, forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

<u>Section 11.08.</u> <u>Continuing Guaranty</u>*Continuing Guaranty*. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall have terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled<u>the Facilities Termination Date</u>. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

<u>Section 11.09.</u> Section 11.09. <u>Authority of Guarantors or Borrowers</u>. It is not necessary for the enforcement of this Article 11 for any Secured Party to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or any Borrower or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

<u>Section 11.10.</u> Section 11.10. <u>Financial Condition of Loan Parties</u>. Any Credit Extension may be made to any Borrower or continued from time to time, and any Hedge Agreements or Cash Management Agreements may be entered into by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries from time to time, in each case without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of the Loan Parties at the time of any such grant or continuation or at the time such Hedge Agreement or such Cash Management Agreement is entered into, as the case may be. No Secured Party shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor's<u>Guarantor's</u> assessment, of the financial condition of any Loan Party. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from the Loan Parties on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries and their ability to perform their obligations under the Loan Documents, the Hedge Agreements and the Cash Management Agreements, as applicable, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of the Loan Parties and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Secured Party to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of the Loan Parties now known or hereafter known by any Secured Party.

------

<u>Section 11.11.</u> Section 11.11. <u>Bankruptcy, Etc.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of the Required Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding of or against the Loan Parties. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of the Loan Parties or by any defense which the Loan Parties may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and the Secured Parties that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve any Borrower of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person in any jurisdiction to pay the Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of the Administrative Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by any Borrower, the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Secured Party as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder.

<u>Section 11.12.</u> Section 11.12. <u>Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor</u>. If all of the Equity Interests of any Guarantor (other than the Company) or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Secured Party or any other Person effective as of the time of such sale.

<u>Section 11.13.</u> <u>Keepwell</u>*Keepwell*. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations that would otherwise constitute Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 11.13 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 11.13, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of the Commitments and the repayment,

------

satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations<u>Facilities Termination Date</u>. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 11.13 constitute, and this Section 11.13 shall be deemed to constitute, a "<u>"</u>keepwell, support, or other agreement"<u>"</u> for the benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Article 11 shall be subject to Section 2.20.

(a)</u> If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity <u>(subject to the Exclusion Principles)</u>, all the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent<u>a secured party</u> on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral)<u>, and</u> to collect, enforce or satisfy any Secured Obligations then owing, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and also may pursue any of the following separately, successively or simultaneously:

------

&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) require any Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it shall at its expense and promptly upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties;

&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) enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof with or without judicial process;

&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) prior to the disposition of the Collateral, store, process, repair or recondition the Collateral or otherwise prepare the Collateral for disposition in any manner to the extent the Collateral Agent deems appropriate; 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;(iv) without notice except as specified below or under the UCC, sell, assign, lease, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Collateral Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private (to the extent to the portion of the Collateral being privately sold is of a kind that is customarily sold on a recognized market or the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations) sale in accordance with the UCC and the Collateral Agent, as collateral agent for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale made in accordance with the UCC, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days' notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Grantor agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent to dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising

------

by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. If the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations, the Grantors shall be liable for the deficiency and the fees of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent, that the Collateral Agent has no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no default has occurred giving rise to the Secured Obligations becoming due and payable prior to their stated maturities. Nothing in this Section shall in any way limit the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Collateral Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral. The Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral.

<u>Section 9.02.</u> *Section 9.02 . Application of Proceeds*. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, all proceeds of Collateral received by the Collateral Agent in the event that an Event of Default shall have occurred, is continuing and has not otherwise been waived, and the maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement and in respect of any sale of, any collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied in full or in part by the Collateral Agent against the Secured Obligations in the order of priority set forth in Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement. 

<u>Section 9.03.</u> *Section 9.03 . Sales on Credit*. If Collateral Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, the Grantor will be credited only with payments actually made by purchaser and received by the Collateral Agent and applied to indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Collateral Agent may resell the Collateral and Grantor shall be credited with proceeds of the sale. 

<u>Section 9.04.</u> *Section 9.04 . Investment Related Property*. Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Investment Related Property included in the Collateral conducted without prior registration or qualification of such Investment Related Property included in the Collateral under the Securities Act and/or such state securities laws, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Investment Related Property included in the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor 

------

acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act) and, notwithstanding such circumstances, each Grantor agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Investment Related Property included in the Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would, or should, agree to so register it. If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Investment Related Property included in the Collateral, upon written request, each Grantor shall and shall cause each issuer of any Pledged Stock to be sold hereunder, each partnership and each limited liability company from time to time to furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may request in order to determine the number and nature of interest, shares or other instruments included in the Investment Related Property included in the Collateral which may be sold by the Collateral Agent in exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

<u>Section 9.06.</u> *Section 9.06* . *Intellectual Property*. (a)<u>(a)</u> Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided herein, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

&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) the Collateral Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to bring suit or otherwise commence any action or proceeding in the name of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent or otherwise, in the Collateral Agent's sole discretion, to enforce any Intellectual Property rights <u>included in the Collateral</u>, in which event such Grantor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents required by the Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and such Grantor shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent as provided in

------

 <u>Article 10</u> hereof in connection with the exercise of its rights under this Section, and, to the extent that the Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce any <u>such</u> Intellectual Property rights as provided in this Section, upon acceleration of the Obligations, **e**ach Grantor agrees to use commercially reasonable measures, whether by action, suit, proceeding or otherwise, to prevent the infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation of any of such Grantor's rights in the<u>such</u> Intellectual Property by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any action, suit or proceeding against any Person so infringing, misappropriating, diluting or otherwise violating as shall be necessary to prevent such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation;

&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) upon written demand from the Collateral Agent, for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, to exercise rights and remedies under <u>Article 9</u> hereof at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Grantor shall grant, assign, convey or otherwise transfer to the Collateral Agent or such Collateral Agent's designee all of such Grantor's right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property <u>included in the Collateral</u> and shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement, in each case, 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) each Grantor agrees that such an assignment and/or recording shall be applied to reduce the Secured Obligations outstanding only to the extent that the Collateral Agent (or any Secured Party) receives cash proceeds in respect of the sale of, or other realization upon, the Intellectual Property <u>included in the Collateral</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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>[Reserved]</u>.; 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;(v) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to notify, or require each Grantor to notify, any obligors with respect to amounts due or to become due to such Grantor in respect of the Intellectual Property <u>included in the Collateral</u>, of the existence of the security interest created herein, to direct such obligors to make payment of all such amounts directly to the Collateral Agent, and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor, to enforce collection of any such amounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done:

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) all amounts and proceeds (including checks and other instruments) received by Grantor in respect of amounts due to such Grantor in respect of the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith paid over or delivered to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash Collateral and applied as provided by <u>Section 9.07</u> hereof; 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Grantor shall not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any such amount or release wholly or partly any obligor with respect thereto or allow any credit or discount thereon.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If (i)<u>(i)</u> an Event of Default shall have occurred and, by reason of cure, waiver, modification, amendment or otherwise, no longer be continuing, (ii)<u>(ii)</u> no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii)<u>(iii)</u> an assignment or other transfer to the Collateral Agent of any rights, title and interests in and to the Intellectual Property <u>included in the Collateral</u> shall have been previously made and shall have become absolute and effective, and (iv)<u>(iv)</u> the Secured Obligations shall not have become immediately due and payable, upon the written request of any Grantor, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to such Grantor, at such Grantor's sole cost and expense, such assignments or other transfer as may be necessary to reassign to such Grantor any such rights, title and interests as may have been assigned to the Collateral Agent as aforesaid, subject to any disposition thereof that may have been made by the Collateral Agent; *provided*, after giving effect to such reassignment, the Collateral Agent's security interest granted pursuant hereto, as well as all other rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent granted hereunder, shall continue to be in full force and effect; and *provided further*, the rights, title and interests so reassigned shall be free and clear of any other Liens granted by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties.

<u>Section 9.07.</u> *Section 9.07 . Cash Proceeds; Deposit Accounts.* (a)<u>(a)</u> If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in addition to the rights of the Collateral Agent specified in <u>Section 6.05</u> with respect to payments of Receivables and solely after the Collateral Agent so directs the Grantors in writing, all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items (collectively, "**Cash Proceeds**"), shall be deemed to be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and, upon the written direction of the Collateral Agent, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required) and held by the Collateral Agent in the Collateral Account. Any Cash Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent (whether from a Grantor or otherwise) during the continuation of any Event(s) of Default may, in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, (i) may be applied by the Collateral Agent against the Secured Obligations then due and owing and/or (ii) if all of such Obligations then due and owing have been paid in full, be held by the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for the Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured) only for so long as it reasonably appears there may be additional Secured Obligations that arise.

**<u>ARTICLE 10</u>ARTICLE 10** 

**COLLATERAL AGENT** 

The provisions of <u>Article 9</u> <u>hereof</u> and Section 10.04(b) of the Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent, and shall be binding upon all Grantors and all Secured Parties, in connection with this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents, as if references therein to the Administrative Agent were to the Collateral Agent.

**<u>ARTICLE 11</u>ARTICLE 11** 

**CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST; TRANSFER OF LOANS** 

This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been made or notice has been given), the cancellation or termination of the Commitments and the cancellation, expiration, posting of backstop letters of credit or cash collateralization of all outstanding Letters of Credit satisfactory to the issuer(s) of such Letters of Credit<u>Facilities Termination Date</u>, be binding upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any Loans held by it and such assignee shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Lenders herein or otherwise, in each case, subject and pursuant to the provisions set forth in the Credit Agreement. Upon (x) the payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been made or notice has been given), the cancellation or termination of the Commitments and the cancellation, expiration, posting of backstop letters of credit or cash collateralization of all outstanding Letters of Credit satisfactory to the issuer(s) of such Letters of Credit<u>Facilities Termination Date</u> or (y) the occurrence of a Collateral Release Date and the Company's delivery of written notice to the Collateral Agent notifying the Collateral Agent that a Collateral Release Date has occurred (until the occurrence of a Collateral Reinstatement Date and delivery of written notice by Collateral Agent to Company of the same), the security interest granted hereby shall automatically terminate hereunder and of record and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. Upon any such termination the Collateral Agent shall, at the Grantors' expense, execute and deliver to the Grantors or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as the Grantors shall reasonably request, including financing statement amendments and/or termination statements to evidence such termination. Upon any disposition of property permitted by the Credit Agreement, the Liens granted herein on and with respect to such property shall be deemed to be automatically released and such property shall automatically revert to the applicable Grantor with no further action on the part of any Person. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the Collateral Agent shall, at the applicable Grantor's expense, execute and deliver or otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, including financing statement amendments to evidence such release in accordance with Section 9.10 of the Credit Agreement.

**<u>ARTICLE 12</u>ARTICLE 12** 

**STANDARD OF CARE; COLLATERAL AGENT MAY PERFORM** 

The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or otherwise. If any Grantor fails to timely perform any agreement contained herein while an Event of Default is continuing, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by each Grantor under Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement.

**<u>ARTICLE 13</u>ARTICLE 13** 

**MISCELLANEOUS** 

Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in accordance with Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement. No failure or delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Grantors and their respective successors and assigns to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement. No Grantor shall, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent given in accordance with the Credit Agreement, assign any right, duty or obligation hereunder. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between the Grantors and the Collateral Agent and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

------

Accordingly, the Loan Documents may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.

**THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIMS SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW OR TORT LAW ARISING OUT OF THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (OTHER THAN ANY MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF THE UCC RELATING TO THE LAW GOVERNING PERFECTION AND THE EFFECT OF PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST).** 

**SECTIONS 10.14(B), 10.14(C), 10.14(D) AND 10.15 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE AND SUCH INCORPORATION SHALL SURVIVE ANY TERMINATION OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT.** 

**<u>ARTICLE 14</u>ARTICLE 14** 

**AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT.** 

On the Restatement Date, the Existing Security Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety by this Agreement, and the Existing Security Agreement shall thereafter be and shall be deemed replaced and superseded in all respects by this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, whether executed and delivered in connection herewith or otherwise, do not constitute a novation or termination of the Obligations under the Existing Security Agreement or the other Loan Documents as in effect prior to the Restatement Date and which remain outstanding as of the Restatement Date, (ii) the Obligations under the Existing Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents are in all respects continuing (as amended and restated hereby and which are in all respects hereinafter subject to the terms herein) and (iii) without in any way limiting the grant of security pursuant to <u>Section 2</u> of this Agreement, the Liens and security interests as granted under the Existing Security Agreement and the other applicable Loan Documents securing payment of such Obligations are in all respects continuing and in full force and effect and are reaffirmed hereby. To the extent applicable, the Grantors hereby acknowledge, confirm and agree that any financing statements, filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office or other instruments similar in effect to the foregoing under applicable law covering all or any part of the Collateral previously filed in favor of the Collateral Agent under the Existing Security Agreement are in full force and effect as of the date hereof<u>Restatement Date</u> and each Grantor ratifies its authorization for the Collateral Agent to file in any relevant jurisdictions any such financing statement or other instrument relating to all or any part of the Collateral if filed prior to the date hereof<u>Restatement Date</u>.
