Section 1.08 Pro Forma Calculations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, financial ratios and tests, including the Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and compliance with covenants determined by reference to Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets, shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.08; *provided* that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Section 1.08, (A) when calculating any such ratio or test for purposes of the definition of "Applicable Rate" or the Financial Covenants set forth in Section 7.11 (other than for purposes of determining Pro Forma Compliance), the events described in this Section 1.08 that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period shall not be given *pro forma* effect and (B) when calculating any such ratio or test for purposes of the incurrence of any Indebtedness, cash and Cash Equivalents resulting from the incurrence of such Indebtedness shall be excluded from the pro forma calculation of any applicable ratio or test for purposes of determining net Indebtedness. In addition, whenever a financial ratio or test is to be calculated on a *pro forma* basis or Pro Forma Compliance, the reference to the "Test Period" for purposes of calculating such financial ratio or test shall be deemed to be a reference to, and shall be based on, the most recently ended Test Period for which internal financial statements of the Parent Borrower are available (as determined in good faith by the Administrative Borrower). For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the foregoing sentence shall not apply for purposes of calculating any such ratio or test for purposes of the definition of "Applicable Rate" or actual compliance (and not Pro Forma Compliance) with the Financial Covenants, which shall be based on the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) or (b), as applicable, for the relevant Test Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For purposes of calculating any financial ratio or test or compliance with any covenant determined by reference to Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets, Specified Transactions (with any incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith to be subject to clause (d) of this Section 1.08 (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility or line of credit)) that have been made (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) if applicable as described in clause (a) above, subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a *pro forma* basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA, Total Assets and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period (or, in the case of Total Assets, on the last day of the applicable Test Period). If since the beginning of any applicable Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.08, then such financial ratio or test (or Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets) shall be calculated to give *pro forma* effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.08.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Whenever *pro forma* effect is to be given to the Transactions, a Specified Transaction or the implementation of an operational initiative or operational change, the *pro forma* calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Administrative Borrower and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of "run-rate" cost savings, operating expense reductions, operating initiatives, other operating improvements and synergies projected by the Administrative Borrower in good faith to be realized as a result of specified actions taken, committed to be taken or expected to be taken (in the good faith determination of the Administrative Borrower) (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense reductions, operating initiatives, other operating improvements and synergies had been realized on the first day of such period and as if such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies were realized during the entirety of such period) and "**run-rate**" means the full recurring benefit for a period that is associated with any action taken, committed to be taken or with respect to which substantial steps have been taken or are expected to be taken (including any savings expected to result from the elimination of a public target's compliance costs with public company requirements) net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions, and any such adjustments shall be included in the initial *pro forma* calculations of such financial ratios or tests and during any subsequent Test Period in which the effects thereof are expected to be realized relating to the Transactions, such Specified Transaction or such implementation of an operational initiative or operational change; *provided* that (A) such amounts are reasonably identifiable and factually supportable in the good faith judgment of the Administrative Borrower, (B) except as set forth in the definition of Consolidated EBITDA, such actions are taken, committed to be taken or with respect to which substantial steps have been taken or are expected to be taken no later than twenty-four (24) months after the date of the Transactions, such Specified Transaction or implementation of such operational initiative or operational change, (C) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this clause (c) to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Consolidated EBITDA (or any other components thereof), whether through a *pro forma* adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period, (D) it is understood and agreed that, subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Section 1.08(c), amounts to be included in *pro forma* calculations pursuant to this Section 1.08(c) may be included in Test Periods in which the Specified Transaction to which such amounts relate to is no longer being given *pro forma* effect pursuant to Section 1.08(b) and (E) any increase in Consolidated EBITDA as a result of cost savings, operating expense reductions, operating initiatives, other operating improvements and synergies pursuant to this Section 1.08(c) (other than related to the Transactions) shall be subject to the limitation set forth in clause (a)(vii) of the definition of Consolidated EBITDA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In the event that (w) the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, amortization, retirement, discharge, defeasance or extinguishment) any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility or line of credit), (x) the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries issues, repurchases or redeems Disqualified Equity Interests, (y) any Restricted Subsidiary issues, repurchases or redeems Preferred Stock or (z) any Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries establishes or eliminates (or designates or undesignates) any Designated Revolving Commitments, in each case included in the calculations of any financial ratio or test, (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then such financial ratio or test shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, or such issuance or redemption of Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Stock, in each case to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period (except in the case of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (or similar ratio), in which case such incurrence, assumption, guarantee, redemption, repayment, retirement, discharge, defeasance or extinguishment of Indebtedness or such issuance, repurchase or redemption of Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Stock will be given effect, as if the same had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period) and for all purposes, such financial ratio or test shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to the full amount of any undrawn Designated Revolving Commitments as if such full amount of Indebtedness thereunder had been incurred thereunder throughout such period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given *pro forma* effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (or similar ratio) is made had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any interest hedging arrangements applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a Financial Officer of the Administrative Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, Term SOFR, or other rate, shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiaries may designate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) (I) In connection with the calculation of the Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for purposes of incurring Indebtedness (including Preferred Stock) or Disqualified Equity Interests under this Agreement, no effect (pro forma or otherwise) shall be given to any Indebtedness (or Preferred Stock) or Disqualified Equity Interests being incurred (or commitments obtained) on the same date (or on a such other subsequent date which otherwise require Pro Forma Effect to be given to such incurrence (or obtaining of commitments)) pursuant to any fixed dollar basket or basket based on Consolidated EBITDA; and (II) in connection with the calculation of the Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for purposes of incurring any Lien under this Agreement, no effect (pro forma or otherwise) shall be given to any Liens being incurred on the same date (or on a such other subsequent date which otherwise require Pro Forma Effect to be given to such incurrence) pursuant to any fixed dollar basket or basket based on Consolidated EBITDA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, when (a) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio or the Total Net Leverage Ratio, (b) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, (c) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires compliance with any representations and warranties set forth herein or (d) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA), in each case in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, the date of determination of such ratio or other provisions, determination of whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, determination of compliance with any representations or warranties or the availability under any baskets shall, at the option of the Administrative Borrower (the Administrative Borrower's election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an "**LCT Election**", which LCT Election may be in respect of one or more of clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) above), be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the "**LCT Test Date**"). If on a *pro forma* basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Stock and the use of proceeds thereof), with such ratios and other provisions calculated as if such Limited Condition Transaction or other transactions had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Test Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which internal financial statements are available (as determined in good faith by the Administrative Borrower), the Parent Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with the applicable ratios, default provisions or other provisions, such ratios, default provisions or other provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with on such date. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if, following the LCT Test Date, any of such ratios, default provisions or other provisions are exceeded or breached as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or other components of such ratio (including due to fluctuations of the Target of any Limited Condition Transaction, including its cash and Cash Equivalents or the amount of such Indebtedness)) or other provisions at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Transaction, such ratios, default provisions or other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been satisfied as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder and (ii) such ratios and compliance with such conditions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or related Specified Transactions. If the Administrative Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio, basket availability or compliance with any other provision hereunder on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earliest of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated and the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, basket or compliance with any other provision hereunder shall be calculated on a *pro forma* basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Stock, and the use of proceeds thereof) had been consummated on the LCT Test Date; *provided* that for purposes of any such calculation of the Fixed Charges Coverage Ratio, Fixed Charges will be calculated using an assumed interest rate for the Indebtedness to be incurred in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Borrower in good faith.

Section 1.09 Currency Generally.

For purposes of determining compliance with Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.05, 7.06 and 7.13 and the definition of Permitted Investments with respect to any amount of Indebtedness or Investment in a currency other than Dollars, no Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of changes in rates of currency exchange occurring after the time such Indebtedness or Investment is incurred (so long as such Indebtedness or Investment, at the time incurred, made or acquired, was permitted hereunder).

For purposes of determining the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Net Leverage Ratio or any other leverage-based ratio or test under this Agreement, the amount of Indebtedness shall reflect the currency translation effects, determined in accordance with GAAP, of Swap Contracts permitted hereunder for currency exchange risks with respect to the applicable currency in effect on the date of determination of the Dollar equivalent of such Indebtedness.

Section 1.10 Letters of Credit.

Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; *provided*, *however*, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any LC Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Revolving Credit Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment severally agrees to make loans denominated in Dollars from its applicable Lending Office to the Borrowers from time to time, on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding that will not (after giving effect to any concurrent use of the proceeds thereof to repay LC Disbursements) result in (i) such Lender's Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment or (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitments. Within the limits of each Revolving Credit Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.01(b), prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.01(b) without premium or penalty (subject to Section 3.05) during the Availability Period. Revolving Credit Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as further provided herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *2024 Incremental Term Borrowings*. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Amendment No. 3, each 2024 Incremental Term Lender severally agrees to make to the Parent Borrower on the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date one or more Term Borrowings of 2024 Incremental Term Loans denominated in Dollars in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such 2024 Incremental Term Lender's 2024 Incremental Term Commitment. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01(c) and repaid or prepaid may not be re-borrowed. 2024 Incremental Term Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as further provided herein.

Section 2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Term Borrowing, each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Term SOFR Loans shall be made upon the Administrative Borrower's irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (*provided* that the notices in respect of the initial Credit Extensions, or in connection with any Permitted Acquisition or other transaction permitted under this agreement, may be conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing Date or the occurrence of such Permitted Acquisition or other transaction, as applicable, so long as the Borrowers indemnify the Lenders for any amounts that would be payable under Section 3.05), which may be given by (A) telephone, or (B) a Committed Loan Notice; *provided* that any telephonic notice (which shall be accompanied by an electronic mail notice prior to funding) by the Administrative Borrower must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Committed Loan Notice no later than the date of funding, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Administrative Borrower. Each such Committed Loan Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (x) two (2) Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of Term SOFR Loans, any conversion of Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans or any Borrowing of, continuation of or conversion into Loans that are denominated in a currency other than Dollars pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(vi) below or (y) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans<u>; provided, however, if the Borrowers wish to request Term SOFR Loans having an Interest Period other than one, three or six months, such Committed Loan Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of Term SOFR Loans, any conversion of Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans</u>. Except as provided in Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 and except with respect to the conversion to Term SOFR Loans of amounts borrowed pursuant to Section 2.03(e) to finance the reimbursement of LC Disbursements and the continuation of any such Term SOFR Loans, each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000, or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof (or the entire remaining unused balance of Revolving Credit Commitments). Except as provided in Section 2.03(e), 2.04(a), 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Borrowers are requesting a Term Borrowing, a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other or a continuation of 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 Class and Type of Loans to be borrowed or the Type of Loans to which existing Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans are to be converted, (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto, (vi) with respect to Term SOFR Loans only, the currency of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (vii) the Parent Borrower or Subsidiary Borrower to which such Loan shall be made and (viii) wire instructions of the account(s) to which funds are to be disbursed (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the amount to be disbursed to any particular account may be less than the minimum or multiple limitations set forth above so long as the aggregate amount to be disbursed to all such accounts pursuant to such Borrowing meets such minimums and multiples). If the Administrative Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall made or continued as the same Type of Loan, which if a Term SOFR Loan shall have a one month Interest Period. Any such automatic continuation of Term SOFR 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 the Administrative Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of 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 (1) month.

&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 Lender of the amount of its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of the applicable Class of Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic continuation of Term SOFR Loans or continuation of Loans described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of each 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 Office not later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. The Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrowers in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account(s) of the Borrowers on the books of the Administrative Agent with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided by the Borrowers to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent; *provided* that if, on the date the Committed Loan Notice with respect to a Borrowing under any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments is given by the Administrative Borrower, there are LC Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of any such LC Borrowing, and second, to the Borrowers as provided above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Term SOFR Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Term SOFR Loan unless the Borrowers pay the amount due, if any, under Section 3.05 in connection therewith. During the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may require by notice to the Borrowers that no Loans may be converted to or continued as Term SOFR Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Term SOFR Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the Term SOFR by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of any change in the Administrative Agent's 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;(e) After giving effect to all Term Borrowings, all Revolving Credit Borrowings, conversions of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten (10) Interest Periods in effect unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing, or in the case of Base Rate Loans, prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date of such Borrowing, that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (b) above, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Overnight Rate plus any administrative, processing, or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the foregoing. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.02(g) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If the Borrowers 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 the Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) 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 Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Lender.

Section 2.03 Letters of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, any Issuing Bank, in reliance on the agreements of the Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in Section 2.03(d), agrees to issue trade and standby Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for the account of any Borrower, or the account of such Borrower for the benefit of any Restricted Subsidiary, in each case, on any Business Day during the applicable Availability Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Issuing Bank; *provided*, that no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the LC Exposure with respect to Letters of Credit would exceed the LC Sublimit, (ii) [reserved], or (iii) such Letter of Credit is to be issued in any currency other than Dollars. Additionally, no Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue or renew any Letter of Credit if the Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for the benefit of any Borrower or applicable Restricted Subsidiary, in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period (but not later than the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, unless Cash Collateralized or backstopped on terms reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent)); *provided*, *further*, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the LC Application or other agreement submitted by the Administrative Borrower to, or entered into by the applicable Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Any purported grant of a security interest in any LC Document shall be null and void.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Administrative Borrower shall hand deliver or fax (or transmit electronically if (i) Bank of America, N.A. is the applicable Issuing Bank or (ii) arrangements for doing so have been approved by any other applicable Issuing Bank) to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent) in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section 2.03), the amount and currency of such Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower with respect to such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Borrower also shall submit a LC Application on such Issuing Bank's standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (A) the LC Exposure with respect to Letters of Credit shall not exceed the LC Sublimit, (B) the Total Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the sum of the Total Revolving Credit Commitments at such time and (C) [reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) (A) with respect to any standby Letter of Credit, the date that is one (1) year after the date of issuance of such standby Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, the date that is one (1) year after the date of such renewal or extension) and (B) with respect to any trade Letter of Credit, the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of issuance of such trade Letter of Credit and (ii) the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date (unless other provisions or arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank shall have been made with respect to such Letter of Credit). If the Administrative Borrower so requests in any notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an "**Auto Renewal Letter of Credit**"); *provided*, that the Administrative Borrower shall be required to make a specific request to the applicable Issuing Bank for any such renewal. Once an Auto Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the earlier of (i) the date that is one (1) year from the date of such renewal (or such longer period as may be agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank three (3) Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date (unless other provisions or arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank shall have been made with respect to such Letter of Credit); *provided*, that the applicable Issuing Bank shall not permit any such renewal if such Issuing Bank has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 4.02 or otherwise).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of any Issuing Bank or the Revolving Credit Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender (with respect to each Letter of Credit), and each Revolving Credit Lender hereby acquires from the applicable Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, (A) each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share of each LC Disbursement with respect to a Letter of Credit made by such Issuing Bank, in Dollars, and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.03, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason in respect thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) in respect of Letters of Credit and such Revolving Credit Lender's obligations under Section 2.03(e) are absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the applicable Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Article IV, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the applicable Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other Lender or any reduction in or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement, in the same currency as the LC Disbursement, not later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day that the Administrative Borrower receives notice that such LC Disbursement is made (or, if the Administrative Borrower receives such notice after 12:00 noon, not later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Administrative Borrower receives such notice); *provided*, that (if the conditions of Sections 4.02(i) and (ii) are satisfied) the applicable Borrower shall have the absolute and unconditional right to require that such payment be financed with a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, in each case in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the applicable Borrower's obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Credit Borrowing. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due, or finance such payment in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence, the applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the applicable LC Disbursement and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the applicable Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the payment then due from the applicable Borrower by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders not later than 3:00 p.m. on the date such notice is received (or, if such Revolving Credit Lender shall have received such notice later than 1:00 p.m., not later than 10:00 a.m. on the immediately following Business Day), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the applicable Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Credit Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Credit Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Base Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Share of an LC Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, such Revolving Credit Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this Section 2.03(e) to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the Borrowers, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans and (ii) in the case of such Revolving Credit Lender, for the first such day, the Federal Funds Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Base Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Each Borrower's obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in Section 2.03(e) and each Revolving Credit Lender's obligations under paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 2.03 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (iv) any adverse change in the exchange rate to any Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or in the relevant currency markets generally, or (v) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.03, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, each Borrower's obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Credit Lenders or the Issuing Banks, or any of their respective Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided, that the provisions of this Section 2.03(f) shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Bank from liability to any Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to indirect, consequential, special and punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by such Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank's failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of any Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the applicable Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in material compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, in good faith either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. Each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower electronically of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; *provided*, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the applicable Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum equal to the Base Rate; provided, that, if the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement, including by requiring that such payment be financed with a Base Rate Loan pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.03, then Section 2.08(b) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.03 to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Credit Lender to the extent of such payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) An Issuing Bank may resign upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank (*provided*, that no consent of the replaced Issuing Bank will be required if it has no Letters of Credit or Reimbursement Obligations with respect thereto outstanding) and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any such resignation or replacement of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, in each case, accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.09(d). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term "Issuing Bank" shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the resigned or replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to renew existing Letters of Credit or issue additional Letters of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) If any Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) with respect to the Parent Borrower or any Borrower shall occur and be continuing or if the Loans have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.02 as a result of any Event of Default, on the Business Day that the Administrative Borrower receives notice from an Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50.0% of the total LC Exposure), in each case, demanding the deposit of Cash Collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the applicable Borrower, shall deliver Cash Collateral to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders, in an amount in cash equal to 102% of the applicable LC Exposure as of such date. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Letter of Credit obligations (including related fees and expenses) of the applicable Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made in Cash Equivalents at the option and reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the applicable Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be released by the Administrative Agent to be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and to pay all fees and expenses relating to Letters of Credit that were not otherwise paid when due and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the Reimbursement Obligations of the applicable Borrower for the applicable LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50.0% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of such Borrower under this Agreement. If any Borrower is required to provide an amount of Cash Collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default specified above, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower within two (2) Business Days after such Event of Default has been cured or waived (unless the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated and the Obligations have been accelerated, in each case in accordance with Section 8.02).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) If the Maturity Date of any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of which the Maturity Date shall not have occurred are then in effect and such Letter of Credit would otherwise be available under such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, such Letter of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make payments in respect thereof pursuant to Sections 2.03(d) and (e)) under (and ratably participated in by the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of which the Maturity Date shall not have occurred up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate amount of the unutilized Revolving Credit Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i), the applicable Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.03(j). For the avoidance of doubt, commencing on the Maturity Date of any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit under any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments that has not so then matured shall be as agreed in the relevant Extension Amendment with the applicable Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) [reserved]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) If any LC Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

&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 the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, each Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateralize for the benefit of each applicable Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.03(j) only such Borrower's obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender's LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.02 for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

&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 a Borrower Cash Collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender's LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, such Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.09(d) with respect to such Defaulting Lender's LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender's LC Exposure is Cash Collateralized except to the extent of such fees that became due and payable by such Borrower prior to the date such Lender became a Defaulting Lender (it being understood that any Cash Collateral provided pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be released promptly following the termination of the Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender);

Section 2.04 Swing Line Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, to make available loans in Dollars to the Borrowers (the "**Swing Line Loans**") from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swing Line Loans exceeding the Swing Line Sublimit or (ii) [reserved]; *provided*, further, that the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to make a Swing Line Loan to refinance an outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swing Line Loans. To request a Swing Line Loan, the Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request electronically in the form of a Swing Line Loan Notice, not later than 2:00 p.m. on the day of a proposed Swing Line Loan. Each such Swing Line Loan Notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swing Line Loan, which shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000 (and in integral multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof) unless the requested Swing Line Loan is used to finance reimbursement of LC Disbursements in accordance with the terms hereof in which case no such minimum amount shall apply. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swing Line Lender of any such Swing Line Loan Notice received from the Administrative Borrower. The Swing Line Lender shall make each Swing Line Loan available to the Borrowers by means of a credit to the account identified in the Swing Line Loan Notice (including, in the case of a Swing Line Loan made to finance the reimbursement of a LC Disbursement, by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank, and in the case of repayment of another Loan or fees or expenses as provided by Section 2.04(c), by remittance to the Administrative Agent to be distributed to the Revolving Credit Lenders) on the requested date of such Swing Line Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Settlement of Swing Line Loans among Revolving Credit Lenders and Administrative Agent shall take place on a date determined from time to time by Administrative Agent (but at least weekly, unless the settlement amount is less than $5,000,000), on a pro rata basis in accordance with the settlement report delivered by Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders. Between settlement dates, Administrative Agent may in its discretion apply payments on Revolving Credit Loans to Swing Line Loans, regardless of any designation by Administrative Borrower or any provision herein to the contrary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In addition, the Swing Line Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 4:00 p.m. on any Business Day require the Revolving Credit Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swing Line Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans in which Revolving Credit Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Credit Lender, specifying in such notice such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Line Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.12 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender (and Section 2.12 shall apply, *mutatis mutandis*, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swing Line Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower of any participations in any Swing Line Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph. Any amounts received by the Swing Line Lender from the Borrowers (or other party on behalf of any Borrower) in respect of a Swing Line Loan after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swing Line Lender, as their interests may appear; <u>provided</u> that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swing Line Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to any Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swing Line Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrowers of any default in the payment thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The Auction Agent shall promptly provide the relevant Borrower Party with a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received on or before the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. Such Borrower Party shall review all such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers and select the largest of the Offered Discounts specified by the relevant responding Term Lenders in the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers that is acceptable to the Borrower Party in its sole discretion (the "**Acceptable Discount**"), if any. If the Borrower Party elects, in its sole discretion, to accept any Offered Discount as the Acceptable Discount, then as soon as practicable after the determination of the Acceptable Discount, but in no event later than by the third Business Day after the date of receipt by such Borrower Party from the Auction Agent of a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers pursuant to the first sentence of this subsection (2) (the "**Acceptance Date**"), the Borrower Party shall submit an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice to the Auction Agent setting forth the Acceptable Discount. If the Auction Agent shall fail to receive an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice from the Borrower Party by the Acceptance Date, such Borrower Party shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the "**Discounted Prepayment Determination Date**"), the Auction Agent will determine (with the consent of such Borrower Party and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the aggregate principal amount and the Classes of Term Loans (the "**Acceptable Prepayment Amount**") to be prepaid by the relevant Borrower Party at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.05(a)(v)(D). If the Borrower Party elects to accept any Acceptable Discount, then the Borrower Party agrees to accept all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered Discount, up to and including the Acceptable Discount. Each Term Lender that has submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer with an Offered Discount that is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Offered Amount (subject to any required pro-rata reduction pursuant to the following sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Lender, a "**Qualifying Lender**"). The Borrower Party will prepay outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this subsection (D) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the Classes specified in such Lender's Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at the Acceptable Discount; *provided* that if the aggregate Offered Amount by all Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the Term Loans for those Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount (the "**Identified Qualifying Lenders**") shall be made pro rata among the Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each such Identified Qualifying Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with such Borrower Party and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the "**Solicited Discount Proration**"). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment Determination Date, the Auction Agent shall promptly notify (I) the relevant Borrower Party of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Acceptable Prepayment Amount comprising the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the Classes to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Acceptable Discount, the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all Term Loans and the Classes to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate principal amount and the Classes of such Term Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date, and (IV) if applicable, each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to such Borrower Party and Term Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to such Borrower Party shall be due and payable by such Borrower Party on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E) In connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the Borrower Parties and the Term Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the payment of customary, reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses from a Borrower Party in connection therewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(F) If any Term Loan is prepaid in accordance with paragraphs (B) through (D) above, a Borrower Party shall prepay such Term Loans on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date without premium or penalty (other than as required by Section 3.05 and except as provided in Section 2.05(a)(vi) below). The relevant Borrower Party shall make such prepayment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, at the Administrative Agent's Office in immediately available funds not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the relevant tranche or Class of Term Loans as the applicable Borrower Party shall so specify in the applicable offer. The Term Loans so prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(v) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, and shall be applied to the relevant Term Loans of such Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share or other applicable share under this Agreement. The aggregate principal amount of the Classes and installments of the relevant Term Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Classes of Term Loans prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment. In connection with each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(v), each Lender participating in any prepayment described in this Section 2.05(a)(v) acknowledges and agrees that in connection therewith, (1) the Borrowers or any Borrower Party then may have, and later may come into possession of, Excluded Information, (2) such Lender has independently, and without reliance on the Borrowers, any of their Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such prepayment notwithstanding such Lender's lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information, (3) none of the Borrowers, Borrower Parties or any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to make any representation that it is not in possession of Material Non-Public Information and all parties to the relevant transactions shall render customary "big boy" disclaimer letters, (4) none of the Borrowers, their Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the Borrowers, their Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information, and (5) the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(G) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Term Loan Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent with the provisions in this Section 2.05(a)(v), established by the Auction Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by the applicable Borrower 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(H) Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 2.05(a)(v), each notice or other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon the Auction Agent's (or its delegate's) actual receipt during normal business hours of such notice or communication; *provided* that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(I) Each of the Borrower Parties and the Term Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may perform any and all of its duties under this Section 2.05(a)(v) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Auction Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Auction Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate. The exculpatory provisions pursuant to this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the Auction Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 2.05(a)(v) as well as activities of the Auction 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(J) Each Borrower Party shall have the right, by written notice to the Auction Agent, to revoke in full (but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice therefor at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, Discount Range Prepayment Response Date or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date (and if such offer is revoked pursuant to the preceding clauses, any failure by such Borrower Party to make any prepayment to a Lender, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(v) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 8.01 or otherwise).

&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) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, after the Amendment No. 3<u>4</u> Effective Date and prior to the date that is the six month anniversary of the Amendment No. 3<u>4</u> Effective Date, any Borrower (x) voluntarily prepays, repays, refinances, substitutes or replaces any Term B Loans or any 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans pursuant to a Repricing Transaction or makes any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(iii) or (iv) that constitutes a Repricing Transaction, or (y) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Term Lenders, (I) in the case of clause (x), a prepayment fee of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term B Loans and the 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced and (II) in the case of clause (y), a fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Term B Loans and the 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment that is subject to such Repricing Transaction. Such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such Repricing 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;(b) *Mandatory*. (i) Commencing with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022<u>2025</u>, within five (5) Business Days after the applicable Compliance Certificate for such fiscal year has been delivered pursuant to Section 6.02(a) (such date, the "**ECF Payment Date**"), the Borrowers shall, subject to clause (b)(vii) of this Section 2.05, cause to be prepaid an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to (A) the Applicable ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow, if any, for the fiscal year covered by such financial statements <u>minus</u> (B) the sum of (1) all voluntary prepayments or repurchases in cash of (x) Term Loans or Incremental Equivalent Debt secured by any Applicable Lien or other Indebtedness constituting First Lien Obligations (other than Indebtedness described in clause (2)), or (y) any refinancing, replacement or extension of any of the foregoing (in each case, including any debt buyback conducted pursuant to a Dutch auction or open market purchase<u>purchases</u>), in each case, during such fiscal year (to the extent not deducted from Excess Cash Flow in any prior period or pursuant to this clause (B) in the prior year) or after such fiscal year-end and prior to the ECF Payment Date (limited in the case of any voluntary prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(v) or Section 10.07(l), and in the case of repurchases of Indebtedness made at a discount to par, to the discounted amount actually paid in cash in respect of the principal amount of Term Loans or other Indebtedness (as opposed to the face amount so prepaid or repurchased)), (2) all voluntary prepayments of ABL Revolving Loans, Revolving Credit Loans and other revolving loans constituting First Lien Obligations during such fiscal year (to the extent not deducted from Excess Cash Flow in any prior period or this clause (B) in the prior year) or after year-end and prior to the ECF Payment Date, to the extent the ABL Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolving Credit Commitments or revolving commitments in respect of such other revolving loans, as the case may be, are permanently reduced by the amount of such payments, (3) the amount of Investments (other than Investments in the Borrowers or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) made in cash during such period, and including, in each case, the payment of any related earnout or similar payment related to any such Investment during such fiscal year (to the extent not deducted from Excess Cash Flow in any prior period or this clause (B) in the prior year) or after year-end and prior to the ECF Payment Date and (4) the amount of Restricted Payments (other than Restricted Payments made in reliance on Section 7.06(a) and 7.06(b)(xviii)) paid in cash during such period to any Person that is not the Parent Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary (including, in each case, the payment of any related earnout or similar payment related to any such Restricted Investment) during such fiscal year (to the extent not deducted from Excess Cash Flow in any prior period or this clause (B) in the prior year) or after year-end and prior to the ECF Payment Date and, in the case of each of the immediately preceding clauses (B)(1) through (B)(4), except to the extent such payments are funded with the proceeds of long-term Indebtedness (other than revolving Indebtedness) of a Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; *provided* that a prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(i) in respect of any fiscal year shall only be required in the amount (if any) by which aggregate amount that would otherwise be due for such fiscal year exceeds $15,000,000; *provided*, *further*, *that* to the extent the sum of the amounts specified in clause (B) exceed the prepayments required to be made pursuant to clause (A), the full amount of any such excess shall carry over and be deducted from required payments in subsequent years until such time as no excess remains.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries Disposes of any property or assets (other than any Disposition of any property or assets permitted by Section 7.05(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) (except as set forth in the proviso thereof), (g), (h), (i), (k), (l), (m), (n), (o), (p), (q), (r), (s), (t), (u), (v), (w), (x), (z), (y) or (aa)) or (2) any Casualty Event occurs, which results in the receipt by any Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Net Proceeds, the Borrowers shall cause to be prepaid on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the date of the receipt by any Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Net Proceeds (or if the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary intends to use proceeds of any such non-excluded Disposition within the applicable Reinvestment Period or has contractually committed prior to the last day of such Reinvestment Period to use such proceeds, in each case in accordance with the first proviso in clause (a) of the definition of Net Proceeds, the Borrowers shall cause to be prepaid any such proceeds constituting Net Proceeds in accordance with such proviso on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of such Reinvestment Period), subject to clause (b)(vii) of this Section 2.05, an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of all such Net Proceeds received.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs or issues any Indebtedness, Disqualified Equity Interests or Preferred Stock from and after the Closing Date not permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.03, the Borrowers shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Proceeds received therefrom on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business Days after the receipt by such Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of such Net Proceeds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 incurs or issues any Refinancing Term Loans, Refinancing Revolving Loans or Refinancing Equivalent Debt to refinance any Class (or Classes) of Loans resulting in Net Proceeds (as opposed to such Refinancing Term Loans, Refinancing Revolving Loans or Refinancing Equivalent Debt arising out of an exchange of existing Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans for such Refinancing Term Loans, Refinancing Revolving Loans or Refinancing Equivalent Debt), the Borrowers shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate principal amount of such Class (or Classes) of Loans so refinanced in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Proceeds (other than any amounts applied to accrued and unpaid interest, tender premium, prepayment penalty or premium on the applicable Refinanced Debt or to defeasance costs and any fees and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with the issuance of such new Indebtedness) received therefrom on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business Days after the receipt by the Borrowers of such Net Proceeds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) If for any reason the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans and LC Obligations at any time exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, the Borrowers shall promptly prepay Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the LC Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; *provided* that the Borrowers shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the LC Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(v) unless after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans such aggregate Outstanding Amount exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect. In addition, (x) if for any reason the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans at any time exceeds the Swing Line Sublimit then in effect, the Borrowers shall promptly prepay Swing Line Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess (including pursuant to a Revolving Credit Borrowing) and (y) if for any reason the aggregate Outstanding Amount of LC Obligations at any time exceeds the LC Sublimit then in effect, the Borrowers shall promptly Cash Collateralize the LC Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b), (A) shall be applied either (x) ratably to each Class of Term Loans then outstanding, except that the Borrowers may direct that any proceeds of Refinancing Term Loans, Refinancing Revolving Loans or Refinancing Equivalent Debt shall be applied to the Class or Classes of Term Loans being refinanced as selected by the Borrowers or (y) as requested by the Borrowers in the notice delivered pursuant to clause (vii) below, to any Class or Classes of Term Loans with an earlier Maturity Date as compared with the remaining Classes of Term Loans then outstanding, (B) shall be applied, with respect to each such Class for which prepayments will be made, in a manner determined at the discretion of the Borrowers in the applicable notice and, if not specified, in direct order of maturity to repayments thereof required pursuant to Section 2.07(a) (for the avoidance of doubt, such application shall be unaffected by whether or not there are any Declined Proceeds resulting from such mandatory prepayment) and (C) shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share provided by this Agreement) of each such Class of Term Loans, subject to clause (vii) of this Section 2.05(b). Notwithstanding clause (A) above, any Incremental Amendment, Refinancing Amendment or Extension Amendment may provide (including on an optional basis as elected by the Borrowers) for a less than ratable application of prepayments to any Class of Term Loans established thereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if at the time that any such prepayment under Section 2.05(b)(i) or (b)(ii) would be required, any Borrower (or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) is required to prepay or offer to repurchase Indebtedness that is secured by Liens on a *pari passu* basis in respect of the Term Loan Priority Collateral with Liens securing the Obligations pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with Excess Cash Flow or the Net Proceeds of such Disposition or Casualty Event (such Indebtedness required to be offered to be so repurchased, "**Other Applicable Indebtedness**"), then the Borrowers may apply such Excess Cash Flow or Net Proceeds on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness required to be so prepaid at such time; *provided* that the portion of such Excess Cash Flow or Net Proceeds allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such Excess Cash Flow or Net Proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such Excess Cash Flow or such Net Proceeds shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans and to the repurchase or prepayment of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(i) or 2.05(b)(ii), as applicable, shall be reduced accordingly; *provided*, *further*, that to the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such indebtedness repurchased or prepaid, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof without giving effect to this sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, the Term B Loans and the 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans shall share ratably in each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) The Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made by it pursuant to clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 2.05(b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment (*provided* that in the case of clause (ii) or (iv) of this Section 2.05(b), the Administrative Borrower may rescind (or delay the date of prepayment identified in) such notice if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of all or any portion of the applicable Facility or other conditional event, which refinancing or other conditional event shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed). Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the aggregate amount of such prepayment to be made by the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the contents of the Administrative Borrower's prepayment notice and of such Appropriate Lender's Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for in this Agreement of the prepayment. Each Term Lender may reject all of its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for in this Agreement of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the "**Declined Proceeds**") of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 2.05(b) by providing written notice (each, a "**Rejection Notice**") to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. one Business Day after the date of such Lender's receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment. Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory repayment of Term Loans to be rejected by such Lender. If a Term Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. To the extent such non-declining Term Lenders elect to decline their Pro Rata Share of such Declined Proceeds, any Declined Proceeds remaining thereafter shall be retained by 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) *Foreign Dispositions and Foreign Excess Cash Flow*. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.05, (i) to the extent that any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Disposition by a Foreign Subsidiary ("**Foreign Disposition**"), the Net Proceeds of any Casualty Event from a Foreign Subsidiary (a "**Foreign Casualty Event**") or Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries are prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable local law (or, in the case of any Foreign Subsidiary that is not wholly-owned by a Borrower, by such Foreign Subsidiary's Organization Documents or other agreement (so long as such restrictions were not implemented for the purpose of avoiding mandatory prepayment requirements)) from being repatriated to the United States, an amount equal to the portion of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.05(b) so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law or applicable Organization Documents will not permit repatriation to the United States (each Borrower 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 or otherwise overcome or eliminate any such restrictions on repatriation even if such Borrower does not intend to actually repatriate such cash, so that an amount equal to the full amount of such Excess Cash Flow or Net Proceeds, as applicable, will otherwise be subject to repayment under this Section 2.05), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, an amount equal to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly applied (net of additional taxes that are or would be payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) to the extent provided herein and (ii) to the extent that such Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition or any Foreign Casualty Event or Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries would have adverse tax or regulatory consequences to the Borrowers or any of their direct or indirect shareholders or Subsidiaries (as determined in good faith by such Borrower) an amount equal to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.05(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require any Foreign Subsidiary to repatriate cash to the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) *Interest Funding Losses, Etc*. (i) Except to the extent otherwise agreed by each Lender so being prepaid, all prepayments of Loans (other than any Revolving Credit Loan that is a Base Rate Loan) shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but not including the date of such prepayment (which, in the case of prepayments pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(v)(F) shall be the accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the applicable Discounted Prepayment Effective Date), together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a Term SOFR Loan on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period therefor, any amounts owing in respect of such Term SOFR Loan pursuant to Section 3.05.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.05, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of Term SOFR Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.05 (but excluding prepayments required under Section 2.05(b)(iv)), prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, in lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 2.05 in respect of any such Term SOFR Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrowers may, in its sole discretion, irrevocably deposit an amount sufficient to make any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder together with accrued interest to the last day of such Interest Period into a Cash Collateral Account until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from any Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Section 2.05. Such deposit shall be deemed to be a prepayment of such Loans by the Borrowers for all purposes under this Agreement at the time of such prepayment.

Section 2.06 Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Optional*. The Borrowers may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the unused Commitments of any Class, or from time to time permanently reduce the unused Commitments of any Class, in each case without premium or penalty; *provided* that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent at least 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000, or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the entire amount thereof and (iii) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Commitments, the LC Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the amount of any such Revolving Credit Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the LC Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Borrower may rescind or postpone any notice of termination of any Commitments prior to the effectiveness of such termination if such termination would have resulted from a refinancing of all or a portion of the applicable Facility or other conditional event, which refinancing or other conditional event shall not be consummated or otherwise shall be delayed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Mandatory*. The <u>2025 Amendment</u> Term B Commitment of each <u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the funding of <u>2025 Amendment</u> Term B Loans to be made by it on the Closing<u>Amendment No. 4 Effective</u> Date. The Term Commitment of each Incremental Term Lender, Refinancing Term Lender or Lender under a Term Loan Extension Series shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the funding of Term Loans to be made by it on the date set forth in the corresponding Incremental Amendment, Refinancing Amendment or Extension Amendment. The Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender of a Class shall automatically and permanently terminate on the Maturity Date for such applicable Class of Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (x) the foregoing shall not release any Revolving Credit Lender from any liability it may have for its failure to fund Revolving Credit Loans, LC Advances or participations in Swing Line Loans that were required to be funded by it on or prior to such Maturity Date and (y) the foregoing will not release any Revolving Credit Lender from any obligation to fund its portion of LC Advances or participations in Swing Line Loans with respect to Letters of Credit issued or Swing Line Loans made prior to such Maturity Date, in each case, other than to the extent such participations have been reallocated pursuant to the terms hereof. The 2024 Incremental Term Commitment of each 2024 Incremental Term Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the funding of 2024 Incremental Term Loans to be made by it on the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees*. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Appropriate Lenders of any termination or reduction of unused portions of the LC Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit of the unused Commitments of any Class under this Section 2.06. Upon any reduction of unused Commitments of any Class, the Commitment of each Lender of such Class shall be reduced by such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the amount by which such Commitments are reduced (other than the termination of the Commitment of any Lender as provided in Section 3.07). All commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Commitments of any Facility shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

Section 2.07 Repayment of Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Term Loans*. The Borrowers shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Appropriate Lenders (A) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with June 30<u>December 31</u>, 2024<u>2025</u>, an aggregate principal amount of all Term B Loans and 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans equal to $1,627,877.24<u>1,695,000.00</u> (which payments shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments after the Amendment No. 3<u>4</u> Effective Date in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.05) and (B) on the Maturity Date for the Term B Loans and the 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans, the aggregate principal amount of all Term B Loans and the 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans outstanding on such date; *provided* that the amount of any such payment set forth above shall be adjusted to account for the addition of any Extended Term Loan or Incremental Term Loans following the Amendment No. 3<u>4</u> Effective Date to contemplate (A) the reduction in the aggregate principal amount of any <u>2025 Amendment</u> Term B Loans or 2024 Incremental Term Loans that were converted in connection with the incurrence of such Extended Term Loans, and (B) any increase to payments to the extent and as required pursuant to the terms of any applicable Incremental Amendment involving a Term Loan Increase to the Term B Loans or 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans, a Refinancing Amendment to the amount of Term B Loans or 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans or an Extension Amendment increasing the amount of Term B Loans or 2024 Incremental<u>2025 Amendment</u> Term Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Revolving Credit Loans*. The Borrowers shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Appropriate Lenders on the Maturity Date for any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made in respect of such Revolving Credit Commitments.

The Borrowers shall repay the aggregate principal amount of each Swing Line Loan on the earlier to occur of (i) the date five (5) Business Days after such Loan is made and (ii) the Latest Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Commitments.

Section 2.08 Interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b), (i) each Term SOFR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Term SOFR for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and (iii) each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Revolving Credit Loans made under the Initial Revolving Credit Commitments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) During the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), the Borrowers shall pay interest on past due amounts owing by it hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws; *provided* that no interest at the Default Rate shall accrue or be payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Accrued and unpaid interest on such amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon written demand.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

Section 2.09 Fees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Commitment Fee*. The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender under each Class of Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate for unused commitment fees (as set forth in the definition of "Applicable Rate") for such Class times the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect for such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments exceeds the sum of (A) the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans for such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any Swing Line Loans) and (B) the Outstanding Amount of LC Obligations for such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments; *provided* that any commitment fee accrued with respect to any of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrowers so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrowers prior to such time; and *provided*, *further*, that no commitment fee shall accrue on any of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. The commitment fee on each Class of Revolving Credit Commitments shall accrue at all times from the Amendment No. 2<u>4</u> Effective Date (or date of initial effectiveness, as applicable) until the Maturity Date for such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments (or such earlier date on which such class of Revolving Credit Commitments shall have expired or terminated), including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date during the first full fiscal quarter to occur after the Amendment No. 2<u>4</u> Effective Date (or date of initial effectiveness, as applicable), and on the Maturity Date for such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, 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;(b) *Agent Fees*. The Borrowers shall pay to the Agents 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 (except as expressly agreed between the Borrowers and the applicable Agent).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Closing Fees*. The Borrowers agree to pay on the Closing Date to each Lender party to this Agreement on the Closing Date, as a fee paid as consideration for undertaking to fund such Lender's Term Loan, a closing fee (the "**Closing Fee**") in an amount equal to 0.25% of the stated principal amount of such Lender's Term B Loan made on the Closing Date. Such Closing Fee will be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter and shall be netted against Term B Loans made by such Lender on the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Letter of Credit Fees*. (i) Subject to the limitations in Section 2.03, each applicable Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Revolving Credit Loans comprised of Term SOFR Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender's LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure with respect to any Letters of Credit. Each Borrower, severally but not jointly, agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank on account of such Borrower during the period from and including the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure attributable to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, as well as such Issuing Bank's standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Accrued participation fees and fronting fees under this paragraph (d) shall be payable in arrears in Dollars on the first day of each January, April, July and October of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate, commencing on Amendment No. 2 Effective Date; <u>provided</u>, that any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees.

All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Term SOFR) shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days, or three hundred sixty-six (366) days, as applicable, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. 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 (1) day. In computing interest on any Loan, the day such Loan is made or converted to a Loan of a different Type shall be included for purposes of calculating interest on a Loan of such different Type and the date such Loan is repaid or converted to a Loan of a different Type, as the case may be, shall be excluded. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.11 Evidence of Indebtedness.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of United States Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c) and Section 1.163-5(b) of the proposed United States Treasury Regulations, as agent for the Borrowers, in each case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be *prima facie* evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers 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 the 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, as set forth in the Register, 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 made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note payable to such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender's Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.11(a), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Sections 2.11(a), shall be *prima facie* evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, absent manifest error; *provided* that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 2.12 Payments Generally.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, 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 Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Appropriate Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender's applicable Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. 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 the Borrowers 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;(b) Unless the Borrowers or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the date, or in the case of any Base Rate Loans, prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date of such payment, any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder (in the case of the Borrowers, for the account of any Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder or, in the case of the Lenders, for the account of any Swing Line Lender, Issuing Bank or Borrowers hereunder), that the Borrowers or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds, then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if the Borrowers failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the "**Compensation Period**") at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. When such Lender makes payment to the Administrative Agent (together with all accrued interest thereon), then such payment amount (excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the Borrowers, and the Borrowers shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

With Respect to any payment that the Administrative Agent makes for the account of the Lenders 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 "**Rescindable Amount**") : (1) the Borrower has not in fact made such payment; (2) the Administrative Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount so paid by the Borrower (whether or not then owed); or (3) the Administrative agent has for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

A written notice (including documentation reasonably supporting such request) of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrowers with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.12(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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation 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 or purchase its 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;(e) 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in Section 8.03. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may (to the fullest extent permitted by mandatory provisions of applicable Law), but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender's Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of the sum of (a) the Outstanding Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and (b) the Outstanding Amount of all LC Obligations outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender.

Section 2.13 Sharing of Payments.

If, other than as provided elsewhere herein or required by court order, any Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of or interest on account of the Loans made by it, or payment in respect of the participations in LC Obligations and Swing Line Loans held by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them and/or such subparticipations in the participations in LC Obligations or Swing Line Loans held by them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of any principal of or interest on such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrowers or application of funds pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement as in effect from time to time (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant permitted hereunder, (C) transactions in connection with an open market<u>a</u> purchase or a Dutch auction contemplated hereunder, (D) in connection with a transaction pursuant to an Extension Amendment, Refinancing Amendment or Incremental Amendment or amendment in connection with Replacement Term Loans contemplated hereunder, (E) the application of Cash Collateral as provided herein (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (F) non-pro rata payments and repayments permitted pursuant to <u>Section 2.16(b)</u>. The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender was the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.13 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Borrower may extend the final maturity of Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments in connection with an Extension that is permitted under Section 2.16 without being obligated to effect such extensions on a pro rata basis among the Lenders (it being understood that no such extension (i) shall constitute a payment or prepayment of any Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, for purposes of this Section 2.13 or (ii) shall reduce the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due under Section 2.07(a), except that the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due to a Lender of Extended Term Loans may be reduced to the extent provided pursuant to the express terms of the respective Extension Request) without giving rise to any violation of this Section 2.13 or any other provision of this Agreement. Furthermore, the Borrower may take all actions contemplated by Section 2.16 in connection with any Extension (including modifying pricing, amortization and repayments or prepayments), and in each case such actions shall be permitted, and the differing payments contemplated therein shall be permitted without giving rise to any violation of this Section 2.13 or any other provision of this Agreement.

Section 2.14 Incremental Credit Extensions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Incremental Commitments*. The Borrowers may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent (an "**Incremental Loan Request**"), request (A) one or more new commitments which may be of the same Class as any outstanding Term Loans (a "**Term Loan Increase**") or a new Class of term loans (collectively with any Term Loan Increase, the "**Incremental Term Commitments**") and/or (B) the establishment of one or more new revolving credit commitments in Dollars (any such new commitments, collectively, the "**Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments**" and the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, collectively with any Incremental Term Commitments, the "**Incremental Commitments**"), whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of each such notice to the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Incremental Loans*. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Term Commitments of any Class are effected (including through any Term Loan Increase), subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall make a Loan to the Borrowers (an "Incremental Term Loan") in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Term Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class are provided, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender of such Class shall make its Commitment available to the Borrowers (when borrowed, an "Incremental Revolving Loan" and collectively with any Incremental Term Loan, an "Incremental Loan") in an amount equal to its Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Revolving Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, Incremental Term Loans having identical terms to any of the other Term Loans (other than original issue discount and/or upfront fees) may be treated as the same Class as any of such Term Loans for all purposes herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Incremental Loan Request*. Each Incremental Loan Request from the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments. Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments may be provided, by any existing Lender (but no existing Lender will have an obligation to make any Incremental Commitment, nor will the Borrowers have any obligation to approach any existing Lender to provide any Incremental Commitment) or by any Additional Lender (each such existing Lender or Additional Lender providing such Commitment or Loan, an "**Incremental Revolving Credit Lender**" or "**Incremental Term Lender**," as applicable, and, collectively, the "**Incremental Lenders**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Effectiveness of Incremental Amendment*. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment, and the Incremental Commitments thereunder, shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (the "**Incremental Facility Closing Date**") of each of the following conditions, together with any other conditions set forth in the Incremental Amendment:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Event of Default shall exist after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments; *provided*, that with respect to any Incremental Amendment the purpose of which is to finance any Permitted Acquisition or Investment, including any Limited Condition Transaction, the condition set forth in this clause (i) (other than any Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.01(a) or, with respect to the Parent Borrower, Section 8.01(f), which may only be waived with the consent of the Required Lenders), may be waived or omitted in full or in part by Incremental Lenders holding more than 50% of the applicable aggregate Incremental Commitments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) [reserved];

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) each Incremental Term Commitment shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 and shall be in an increment of $1,000,000 (*provided* that such amount may be less than $5,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in Section 2.14(d)(iv) permitted to be borrowed at such time) and each Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 and shall be in an increment of $1,000,000 (*provided* that such amount may be less than $5,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in Section 2.14(d)(iv) permitted to be borrowed at such time);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Term Loans, the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and Incremental Equivalent Debt incurred pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not exceed (A) the greater of (I) $252,000,000<u>463,000,000</u> and (II) 100% of Trailing Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA plus (B) an amount equal to the sum of (I) the aggregate principal amount of all voluntary prepayments (including through debt buybacks (whether through open market purchases or otherwise) and Dutch auctions) of (x) Term Loans, Permitted Ratio Debt or Incremental Equivalent Debt that constitutes First Lien Obligations and (y) to the extent incurred in reliance on clause (A) above, Incremental Equivalent Debt that constitutes Second Lien Obligations or that is unsecured and (II) the aggregate principal amount of permanent voluntary commitment reductions under the ABL Credit Agreement in connection with the termination of the ABL Credit Agreement or any other revolving facility the Indebtedness under which constitutes First Lien Obligations, in each case, made or effectuated after the Closing Date (provided that voluntary permanent commitment reductions with respect to the ABL Credit Agreement may only be utilized to incur Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and not Incremental Term Commitments), in each case except to the extent financed with proceeds of long-term Indebtedness (other than revolving Indebtedness) plus (C) an unlimited additional amount of Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Incremental Equivalent Debt so long as (x) in the case of Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or Incremental Equivalent Debt secured by any Applicable Lien, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio for the Test Period most recently ended calculated on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to any such incurrence, does not exceed 4.50 to 1.00 (in the case of an incurrence of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, such ratio determined only at the time the relevant Commitment is established and assuming such then incurred Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are fully drawn and calculating the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio without netting the cash proceeds from such Incremental Loans then proposed to be incurred), (y) in the case of Incremental Loans, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or Incremental Equivalent Debt secured by Liens on the Collateral (other than Applicable Liens), the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio for the Test Period most recently ended calculated on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to any such incurrence, does not exceed 5.75 to 1.00 (in the case of an incurrence of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, such ratio determined only at the time the relevant Commitment is established and assuming such then incurred Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are fully drawn and calculating the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio without netting the cash proceeds from such Incremental Loans then proposed to be incurred) and (z) in the case of Incremental Loans, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or Incremental Equivalent Debt that are (or is) unsecured, either (1) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Test Period most recently ended calculated on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to any such incurrence, is not less than 2.00 to 1.00 (in the case of an incurrence of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, such ratio determined only at the time the relevant Commitment is established and assuming such then incurred Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are fully drawn and calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio without netting the cash proceeds from such Incremental Loans then proposed to be incurred) or (2) if incurred in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or other Investment, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on a Pro Forma Basis does not decrease immediately after giving effect to such Permitted Acquisition, Investment or other Specified Transaction (the amount available under clauses (A), (B) and (C), the "Available Incremental Amount"); provided that (I) the Borrowers may elect to use clause (C) of the Available Incremental Amount prior to clause (A) or (B) and regardless of whether there is capacity under clause (A) or (B), and if clauses (A), (B) and (C) are available and the Borrowers do not make an election, the Borrowers will be deemed to have elected clause (C), (II) the Borrowers may reclassify utilizations among clauses (A), (B) and (C) of the Available Incremental Amount if, at the time of such reclassification, the Borrowers would be permitted to incur the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness being so reclassified, and (III) if amounts incurred under clause (A) or (B) of the Available Incremental Amount are incurred concurrently with the incurrence of Incremental Loans or Incremental Commitments and/or Incremental Equivalent Debt (in each case, including any unused commitments obtained) in reliance on clauses (A) or (B) of the Available Incremental Amount or any amounts pursuant to a fixed dollar basket in Section 7.03, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated without giving effect to such amounts incurred (or commitments obtained) in reliance on the foregoing clauses (A) or (B) or such fixed dollar basket in Section 7.03;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Required Terms*. The terms, provisions and documentation of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Commitments or the Incremental Revolving Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, of any Class shall be as agreed between the Borrowers and the applicable Incremental Lenders providing such Incremental Commitments, and except as otherwise set forth herein, to the extent the terms of any Incremental Term Loans are not identical to any Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, existing on the Incremental Facility Closing Date, the terms of such Incremental Term Loans shall either, (x) not be materially more restrictive to the Borrowers (as determined by the Administrative Borrower in good faith), when taken as a whole, than the terms of the <u>2025 Amendment</u> Term B Loans and the 2024 Incremental Term Loans, except for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the Latest Maturity Date in effect immediately prior to the incurrence of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Commitments or (y) be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being understood that (I) covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the Latest Maturity Date in effect immediately prior to the incurrence of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Commitments need not be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (II) to the extent that any Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant or other covenant is added for the benefit of any Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Commitments, no consent shall be required from the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders to the extent that such Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant or other covenant is also added for the benefit of the existing Term Loans); provided that in the case of a request to effect a Term Loan Increase, the terms, provisions and documentation of such Term Loan Increase shall be identical (other than with respect to upfront fees, OID or similar fees) (it being understood that, if necessary to consummate such Term Loan Increase which is intended to be fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the interest rate margins and rate floors on the existing Class of Term Loans may be automatically increased and any call protection provision may be made more favorable to the applicable existing Lenders) to the applicable Term Loans being increased as existing on the Incremental Facility Closing Date.

The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Loan Party, Agent or Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.14, including, without limitation, any amendments necessary in connection with a Term Loan Increase necessary to provide that such Incremental Loans and Incremental Commitments are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Borrowers will use the proceeds, if any, of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, unless it so agrees. To the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall have received (i) customary legal opinions (conformed as appropriate), good standing certificates, board resolutions and officers' certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date (conformed as appropriate) other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in Law, change in fact or change to counsel's form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents.

and (viii) such Incremental Equivalent Debt may participate on a pro rata basis or less than or greater than pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayments of other Classes of Term Loans; and may participate on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis (except for prepayments with respect to any Refinancing Indebtedness thereof and other than with any Class of Term Loans with an earlier Maturity Date as compared with such Incremental Equivalent Debt)) in any mandatory prepayments of Term Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

&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) *Refinancing Commitments*. The Borrowers may, at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent (a "**Refinancing Loan Request**"), request (A) (i) the establishment of one or more new Classes of term loans under this Agreement (any such new Class, "**New Refinancing Term Commitments**") or (ii) increases to one or more existing Classes of term loans under this Agreement (any such increase to an existing Class, collectively with New Refinancing Term Commitments, "**Refinancing Term Commitments**"), or (B)(i) the establishment of one or more new Classes of revolving credit commitments under this Agreement (any such new Class, "**New Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments**") or (ii) increases to one or more existing Classes of revolving credit commitments (any such increase to an existing Class, collectively with the New Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments, "**Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments**", and collectively with any Refinancing Term Commitments, "**Refinancing Commitments**"), in each case, established in exchange for, or to extend, renew, replace, repurchase, retire or refinance, in whole or in part, as selected by the Borrowers, any one or more then existing Class or Classes of Loans or Commitments (with respect to a particular Refinancing Commitment or Refinancing Loan, such existing Loans or Commitments, "**Refinanced Debt**"), whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of each such notice to each of the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Refinancing Loans*. Any Refinancing Term Loans made pursuant to New Refinancing Term Commitments or any New Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments made on a Refinancing Facility Closing Date shall be designated a separate Class of Refinancing Term Loans or Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. On any Refinancing Facility Closing Date on which any Refinancing Term Commitments of any Class are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.15, (i) each Refinancing Term Lender of such Class shall make a Term Loan to the Borrowers (a "**Refinancing Term Loan**") in an amount equal to its Refinancing Term Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Refinancing Term Lender of such Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Refinancing Term Commitment of such Class and the Refinancing Term Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto.

Each Refinancing Loan Request from the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Refinancing Term Loans or Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and identify the Refinanced Debt with respect thereto. Refinancing Term Loans may be made, and Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments may be provided, by any existing Lender (but no existing Lender will have an obligation to make any Refinancing Commitment, nor will the Borrowers have any obligation to approach any existing Lender to provide any Refinancing Commitment) or by any Additional Lender (each such existing Lender or Additional Lender providing such Commitment or Loan, a "**Refinancing Revolving Credit Lender**" or "**Refinancing Term Lender**," as applicable, and, collectively, "**Refinancing Lenders**"); *provided* that in the case of any Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitment which are Revolving Credit Commitments, the Administrative Agent shall have consented (not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed) to such Lender's or Additional Lender's providing such Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments to the extent such consent, if any, would be required under Section 10.07(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender.

The terms, provisions and documentation of the Refinancing Term Loans and Refinancing Term Commitments or the Refinancing Revolving Loans and Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, of any Class shall be as agreed between the Borrowers and the applicable Refinancing Lenders providing such Refinancing Commitments, and except as otherwise set forth herein, to the extent not identical to (or constituting a part of) any Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, each existing on the Refinancing Facility Closing Date, shall be consistent with clauses (i) and (ii) below, as applicable, and otherwise, at the option of the Borrowers, either (x) reflect market terms and conditions (taken as a whole) at the time of such refinancing (as determined by the Administrative Borrower in good faith) or (y) if not consistent with the terms of the corresponding Class under the Facilities, not be materially more restrictive to the Borrowers (as determined by the Administrative Borrower in good faith), when taken as a whole, than the terms of the applicable Class under the Facilities being refinanced or replaced (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date of the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments existing at the time of such refinancing). If necessary to consummate any such Refinancing Loans or Refinancing Commitments as fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with an existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, the interest rate margins and rate floors on the applicable existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments may be automatically increased and any call protection provision may be made more favorable to the applicable existing Lenders. In any event:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Refinancing Term Loans:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (B) as of the Refinancing Facility Closing Date, shall not have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Refinanced Debt; *provided* that (I) Refinancing Term Loans consisting of a customary bridge facility so long as the long-term Indebtedness into which such customary bridge facility is to be converted satisfies this criteria and (II) any Refinancing Term Loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed the then available Inside Maturity Basket may, in each case, have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Refinanced Debt;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (D) shall have fees determined by the Borrowers and the applicable arranger(s);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) shall not have a greater principal amount than the principal amount of the Refinanced Debt plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Refinanced Debt plus existing commitments unutilized under such Refinanced Debt to the extent permanently terminated at the time of incurrence of such new Indebtedness plus the amount of any tender premium or penalty or premium required to be paid under the terms of the instrument or documents governing such Refinanced Debt and any defeasance costs and any fees and expenses (including OID, upfront fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with the issuance of such Refinancing Term Loans plus other amounts permitted to be incurred under Sections 7.01 and 7.03, 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and Refinancing Revolving Loans:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) shall not have a final scheduled maturity date earlier than, or mandatory scheduled commitment reductions prior to, the Maturity Date with respect to the Refinanced Debt; *provided* that, any Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and Refinancing Revolving Loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed the then available Inside Maturity Basket may have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Refinanced Debt;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) shall provide that the borrowing and repayment (except for (1) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings), (2) repayments required upon the applicable Maturity Date of the Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and any other Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, and (3) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (in accordance with clause (E) below)) of Loans with respect to Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments after the associated Refinancing Facility Closing Date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Credit Commitments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (D) may include provisions for letter of credit and swing line subfacilities and may be available 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (E) shall provide that the permanent repayment of Revolving Credit Loans with respect to, and termination or reduction of, Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments after the associated Refinancing Facility Closing Date be made on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not greater than pro rata basis) with all other Revolving Credit Commitments, except that the Borrowers shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate Commitments (I) in respect of any such Class of Revolving Credit Loans on a greater than pro rata basis as compared to any other Class of Revolving Credit Loans with a later Maturity Date than such Class or (II) in connection with any refinancing thereof permitted by this Agreement;

Commitments in respect of Refinancing Term Loans and Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments shall become additional Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (a "**Refinancing Amendment**") to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrowers, each Refinancing Lender providing such Commitments, the Administrative Agent. The Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Loan Party, Agent or Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.15, including amendments as deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable judgment to effect any lien subordination and associated rights of the applicable Lenders to the extent any Refinancing Loans are to rank junior in right of security or to address technical issues relating to funding and payment and any amendments necessary in connection with any Refinancing Loans necessary to provide that such Refinancing Loans and Refinancing Commitments are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Borrowers will use the proceeds of the Refinancing Term Loans and Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments to extend, renew, replace, repurchase, retire or refinance, and shall permanently terminate applicable commitments under, substantially concurrently, the applicable Refinanced Debt.

&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) *Reallocation of Revolving Credit Exposure*. Upon any Refinancing Facility Closing Date on which Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments are effected through the establishment of a new Class of revolving credit commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15, if, on such date, there are any revolving loans under any Revolving Credit Facility then outstanding, such revolving loans shall be prepaid from the proceeds of a new Borrowing of the Incremental Revolving Loans under such new Class of Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments in such amounts as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to such Borrowing and all such related prepayments, all revolving credit loans under all Revolving Credit Facilities will be held by all Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facilities (including Lenders providing such Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments) ratably in accordance with their revolving credit commitments under all Revolving Credit Facilities (after giving effect to the establishment of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments). Upon any Refinancing Facility Closing Date on which Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments are effected through the increase to any existing Class of Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15, (x) if, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders under such Class shall be deemed to assign to each of the Refinancing Revolving Credit Lenders, and each of the Refinancing Revolving Credit Lenders shall purchase from each of the Revolving Credit Lenders under such Class, at par, such interests in the Refinancing Revolving Loans outstanding on such Refinancing Facility Closing Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Credit Loans under such Class will be held by existing Revolving Credit Lenders under such Class and Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments under such Class after giving effect to the addition of such Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments to the Revolving Credit Commitments under such Class; *provided* that regularly accruing interest and fees through the date of the applicable Refinancing Facility Closing Date (as well as amounts owing to any Lender pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 or similar provisions pursuant to the other Loan Documents) shall be retained by the respective Lenders to which such amounts were owing and shall not be subject to the assignments sold and purchased as otherwise required hereby and (y) each Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Credit Commitment and each Loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Credit Loan and (z) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and all matters relating thereto. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing and prepayment requirements in Section 2.02 and 2.05(a) of this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Refinancing Equivalent Debt.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) (1) shall not (other (I) any Refinancing Equivalent Debt consisting of a customary bridge facility so long as the long-term Indebtedness into which such customary bridge facility is to be converted satisfies this criteria and (II) any Refinancing Equivalent Debt in an aggregate amount not to exceed the then available Inside Maturity Basket) have a Maturity Date prior to the Maturity Date of the Refinanced Loan, (2) if in the form of term loans (other than (I) any Refinancing Equivalent Debt consisting of a customary bridge facility so long as the long-term Indebtedness into which such customary bridge facility is to be converted satisfies this criteria and (II) any Refinancing Equivalent Debt in an aggregate amount not to exceed the then available Inside Maturity Basket) have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Refinanced Loans, (3) (I) shall rank pari passu with, or junior in right of payment to, the Obligations under the then existing Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans and will either be secured solely by the same Collateral securing the Obligations or shall be unsecured and (II) to the extent (x) secured by any Applicable Lien, shall be subject to the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement and, if applicable, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and (y) secured by Liens on the Collateral (other than Applicable Liens), shall be subject to the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement or, in each case, to intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, (4) shall not be guaranteed by Subsidiaries other than Guarantors, (5) shall not have a greater principal amount than the principal amount of the Refinanced Loans plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Refinanced Loans plus existing commitments unutilized under such Refinanced Loans to the extent permanently terminated at the time of incurrence of such new Indebtedness plus the amount of any tender premium or penalty or premium required to be paid under the terms of the instrument or documents governing such Refinanced Loans and any defeasance costs and any fees and expenses (including OID, upfront fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with the issuance of such Refinancing Equivalent Debt plus other amounts permitted to be incurred under Section 7.03 and (7) except as otherwise set forth in this clause (h)(ii), shall (x) reflect market terms and conditions (taken as a whole) at the time of such refinancing (as determined by the Administrative Borrower in good faith) or (y) if not consistent with the terms of the corresponding Class under the Facilities, not be materially more restrictive to the Borrowers (as determined by the Administrative Borrower in good faith), when taken as a whole, than the terms of the applicable Class under the Facilities being refinanced or replaced (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date of the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments existing at the time of such refinancing),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) [reserved], and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) shall be incurred, and the proceeds thereof used, solely to repay, repurchase, retire or refinance substantially concurrently the Refinanced Loans and terminate all commitments thereunder.

The Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Term Loans of a given Class (each, an "**Existing Term Loan Tranche**") be amended to extend the scheduled Maturity Date(s) with respect to all or a portion of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche (any such Term Loans which have been so amended, "**Extended Term Loans**") and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.16. In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the Borrowers shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, a "**Term Loan Extension Request**") setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable, but excluding any arrangement, structuring or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not generally shared with all Extending Term Lenders (other than any transaction or similar fee payable to the applicable consenting Lenders in connection with such Extension Amendment)) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche and (y) be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Borrower) to the Extending Term Lenders than those applicable to the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Term Loan Extension Request (except if the existing Lenders receive the benefit of such favorable terms or for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date), including: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; *provided*, *however*, that at no time shall there be Classes of Term Loans hereunder (including Refinancing Term Loans and Extended Term Loans) which have more than five different Maturity Dates; (ii) the All-In Yield, pricing, optional redemptions and prepayments and AHYDO Payments with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, OID or otherwise) may be different than the All-In Yield, pricing, optional redemptions and prepayments and AHYDO Payments for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); and (iv) Extended Term Loans may have call protection as may be agreed by the Borrowers and the Lenders thereof; *provided* that (A) unless incurred in reliance upon the then available Inside Maturity Basket, in no event shall the Maturity Date of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the Maturity Date of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche, (B) unless incurred in reliance upon the then available Inside Maturity Basket, the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche, (C) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing, (D) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or less than or greater than a pro rata basis in any voluntary repayments or prepayments of principal of Term Loans hereunder and on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis except in the case of AHYDO Payments or a prepayment under Section 2.05(b)(iv) and Section 2.05(b)(vi)(A)(y)), in any mandatory repayments or prepayments of Term Loans hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Term Loan Extension Request and (E) any extension of such Extended Term Loans shall be subject to no Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or (f). Any Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a "**Term Loan Extension Series**") of Extended Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; *provided* that any Extended Term Loans amended from an Existing Term Loan Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Term Loan Extension Series with respect to such Existing Term Loan Tranche (in which case scheduled amortization with respect thereto shall be proportionately increased); *provided*, *further*, that if the Applicable Rate and Term SOFR or Base Rate floor (if any) for any such increase shall be higher than the Applicable Rate and Term SOFR or Base Rate floor (if any) for the Class being increased, then the Applicable Rate for the Class being increased shall be automatically increased as and to the extent necessary to eliminate such deficiency. Each request for a Term Loan Extension Series of Extended Term Loans proposed to be incurred under this Section 2.16 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000 (it being understood that the actual principal amount thereof provided by the applicable Lenders may be lower than such minimum amount) and the Borrowers may impose an Extension Minimum Condition with respect to any Term Loan Extension Request, which may be waived by the Borrowers in their sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Extension of Revolving Credit Commitments*. The Borrowers may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Class (each, an "**Existing Revolver Tranche**") be amended to extend the Maturity Date with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Revolving Credit Commitments (any such Revolving Credit Commitments which have been so amended, "**Extended Revolving Credit Commitments**" and any loans under such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, "**Extended Revolving Credit Loans**") and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.16. In order to establish any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrowers shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Revolver Tranche) (each, a "**Revolver Extension Request**") setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable, but excluding any arrangement, structuring or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not generally shared with all Extending Revolving Credit Lenders (other than any transaction or similar fee payable to the applicable consenting Lenders in connection with such Extension Amendment)) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche, and (y) be substantially identical to, or taken as a whole, no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Borrower) to the Extending Revolving Credit Lender, as the original Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings) unless the existing Lenders receive the benefit of such favorable terms or for covenants and other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date: (i) the Maturity Date of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be delayed to a later date than the Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Existing Revolver Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; *provided*, *however*, that at no time shall there be Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) which have more than five different Maturity Dates; (ii) the All-In Yield, pricing, optional redemption or prepayment terms, with respect to extensions of credit under the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, OID or otherwise) may be different than the All-In Yield, pricing, optional redemption or prepayment terms, for extensions of credit under the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Existing Revolver Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants (as determined by the Borrowers and Lenders extending) and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments); and (iv) all borrowings under the applicable Revolving Credit Commitments (*i.e.*, the Existing Revolver Tranche and the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Revolver Extension Series) and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (I) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings), (II) repayments required upon the Maturity Date of the non-extending Revolving Credit Commitments and (III) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of non-extended Revolving Credit Commitments); *provided*, *further*, that in no event shall the Maturity Date of any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Revolver Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date of any other Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder, and all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing and the effectiveness of any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be subject to no Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or (f). Any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments amended pursuant to any Revolver Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a "**Revolver Extension Series**") of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement; *provided* that any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments amended from an Existing Revolver Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Revolver Extension Series with respect to such Existing Revolver Tranche. Each request for a Revolver Extension Series of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments proposed to be incurred under this Section 2.16 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000 (it being understood that the actual principal amount thereof provided by the applicable Lenders may be lower than such minimum amount) and the Borrowers may impose an Extension Minimum Condition with respect to any Revolver Extension Request, which may be waived by the Borrowers in their sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Extension Request*. The Borrowers shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.16. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Tranche amended into Extended Term Loans or any of its Revolving Credit Commitments amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender holding a Loan under an Existing Term Loan Tranche (each, an "**Extending Term Lender**") wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Term Loans and any Revolving Credit Lender (each, an "**Extending Revolving Credit Lender**") wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (each, an "**Extension Election**") on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, which it has elected to request be amended into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, in respect of which applicable Term Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, requested to be extended pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be amended to Extended Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by the Administrative Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, included in each such Extension Election.

&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) *Extension Amendment*. Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, an "**Extension Amendment**") to this Agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Extending Term Lender or Extending Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, providing an Extended Term Loan or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, thereunder, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Sections 2.16(a) or (b) above, respectively (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender). The effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions (conformed as appropriate), good standing certificates, board resolutions and officers' certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date (conformed as appropriate) other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel's form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, incurred pursuant thereto, (ii) modify the scheduled repayments set forth in Section 2.07 with respect to any Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to an Extension Election to reflect a reduction in the principal amount of the Term Loans required to be paid thereunder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to the applicable Extension (with such amount to be applied ratably to reduce scheduled repayments of such Term Loans required pursuant to Section 2.07), (iii) modify the prepayments set forth in Section 2.05 to reflect the existence of the Extended Term Loans and the application of prepayments with respect thereto, (iv) address technical issues relating to funding and payments and (v) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.16, including any amendments necessary in connection with any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments necessary to provide that such Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Extension Amendment. If necessary to consummate any such Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments as fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with an existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, the interest rate margins and rate floors on the applicable existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments may be automatically increased and any call protection provision may be made more favorable to the applicable existing Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) No Prepayment. No conversion or extension of Loans or Commitments pursuant to any Extension Amendment in accordance with this Section 2.16 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory prepayment or repayment for purposes of this Agreement. This Section 2.16 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

Section 2.17 Defaulting Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Adjustments*. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by 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;(i) <u>Waivers and Amendments</u>. That Defaulting Lender's right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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>Reallocation of Payments</u>. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: *first*, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; *second*, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; *third*, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; *fourth*, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; *fifth*, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; *sixth*, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; *seventh*, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and *eighth*, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; *provided* that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or LC Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Borrowings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Certain Fees</u>. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.09(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit fees as provided in Section 2.03(m).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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>Reallocation of Pro Rata Share to Reduce Fronting Exposure</u>. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Non- Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.04, the "Pro Rata Share" of each Non-Defaulting Lender's Revolving Credit Loans and LC Obligations shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender under a Class of Revolving Credit Commitments to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Credit Commitment under such Class of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the sum of (A) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, (B) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided under this Agreement (immediately prior to giving effect to such applicable reallocation) of the LC Obligations and (C) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided under this Agreement (immediately prior to giving effect to such applicable reallocation) of the Swing Line Loans, in each case, under such Class of Revolving Credit Commitments of that Non-Defaulting Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Defaulting Lender Cure*. If the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders at par or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided under this Agreement (without giving effect to the reallocation of such Lender's participation pursuant to Section 2.17(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; *provided* that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and *provided*, *further*, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender's having been a Defaulting 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;(c) *Cash Collateralization*. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly upon the written request of the Administrative Agent (with respect to any or all Fronting Exposure) or the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender (solely with respect to such Person's Fronting Exposure at such time), the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral (or, in the case of Fronting Exposure with respect to Swing Line Loans, repay such Swing Line Loans) in an amount sufficient to cover all such Fronting Exposure that has not been reallocated pursuant to <u>Section 2.17(a)(iv)</u> (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). For purposes hereof, "**Cash Collateralize**" means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of (i) the relevant Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders, as collateral for the LC Obligations or (ii) the Swing Line Lender and the Revolving Credit Lenders, as collateral for the Swing Line Obligations, cash and Cash Equivalents (if reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as applicable) or deposit account balances ("**Cash Collateral**") pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as applicable (which documents are hereby consented to by the Revolving Credit Lenders). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings.

Section 2.18 Co-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;(a) Each Borrower accepts joint and several liability hereunder in consideration of the financial accommodation to be provided by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of each Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the obligations of each Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for the Obligations, regardless of which Borrower actually receives the Loans hereunder or the amount of the Obligations received or the manner in which the Administrative Agent or any Lender accounts for the Obligations on its books and records. Each Borrower's obligations with respect to Loans made to it, and each Borrower's obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder, with respect to Loans or LC Obligations made to and other Obligations owing by the Borrowers hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such obligations shall be primary obligations of each Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Borrower's obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder with respect to Loans made to, Letters of Credit issued on behalf of, and other Obligations owing by the Borrowers hereunder shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional irrespective of (A) the validity or enforceability, avoidance or subordination of the obligations of any other Borrower or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the obligations of any other Borrower, (B) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any other Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the same, (C) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the obligations of any other Borrower, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by any other Borrower and delivered to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (D) the failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the obligations of any other Borrower, (E) the Administrative Agent's or any Lender's election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, (F) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any other Borrower, as Debtor In Possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, (G) the disallowance of all or any portion of the Administrative Agent's or any Lender's claim(s) for the repayment of the obligations of any other Borrower under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or (H) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or of any other Borrower. With respect to each Borrower's obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder with respect to Loans made to the Borrowers hereunder, such Borrower waives, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which the Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against such Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to secure payment of the Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any 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;(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.

&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) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Borrower as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for the Borrowers, which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received prior written notice signed by all of the Borrowers that such appointment has been revoked and that another Borrower has been appointed in the place of the Administrative Borrower. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Borrower (i) to provide to the Administrative Agent and receive from the Administrative Agent all notices with respect to Loans obtained for the benefit of any Borrower and all other notices and instructions under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) to take such action as the Administrative Borrower deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Loans and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. It is understood that the handling of the Collateral of the Borrowers in a combined fashion, as more fully set forth herein and in the Collateral Documents, is done solely as an accommodation to the Borrowers in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of the Borrowers in the most efficient and economical manner and at their request, and that neither the Agents nor the Lenders shall incur liability to the Borrowers as a result hereof. Each of the Borrowers expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the handling of the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) After the Closing Date, the Administrative Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, designate any Restricted Subsidiary that is a wholly-owned Domestic Subsidiary that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a Borrower by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrower Joinder Agreement executed by such Subsidiary and the Administrative Borrower, together with any documentation and other information with respect to such additional Borrower required by regulatory authorities under applicable "know your customer" and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the PATRIOT Act requested by the Administrative Agent (and to the extent not theretofore delivered on the Closing Date or otherwise) and satisfied the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement (including without limitation the actions as specified in Section 6.11 with respect to newly formed Subsidiaries), and upon such delivery and satisfaction, such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents be a Borrower and a party to this Agreement. As soon as practicable upon receipt of a Borrower Joinder Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall furnish a copy thereof to each Lender.

**Article III.** **<u><br> TAXES, INCREASED COSTS PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY</u>**

Section 3.01 Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except as provided in this Section 3.01, all payments made by or on account of the Borrowers or Guarantors to or for the account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by any Law. If the Borrowers, any Guarantor or other applicable withholding agent shall be required by any Laws to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Agent or any Lender, (i) if the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax (as defined below), the sum payable by the Borrowers or any Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01), each of such Lender (or where any Agent receives the payments for its own account, such Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions, (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment (or, if receipts or evidence are not available within thirty (30) days, as soon as possible thereafter), if the Borrowers or any Guarantor is the applicable withholding agent, it shall furnish to such Agent or Lender (as the case may be) the original or a copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence acceptable to such Agent or Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In addition, the Borrowers agree to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary Taxes and any other excise, property, intangible or mortgage recording Taxes, imposed by any Governmental Authority, which arise from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document excluding, in each case, any such Tax imposed as a result of an Agent or Lender's Assignment and Assumption, grant of a participation, transfer or assignment to or designation of a new applicable Lending Office or other office for receiving payments under any Loan Document (collectively, "**Assignment Taxes**"), except for Assignment Taxes resulting from an assignment or participation that is requested or required in writing by the Borrowers (all such non-excluded taxes described in this Section 3.01(b) being hereinafter referred to as "**Other Taxes**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Borrowers and each Guarantor agree to promptly indemnify each Agent and each Lender for (i) the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes payable by such Agent or such Lender and (ii) any expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared in good faith and delivered by such Agent or Lender (or by an Agent on behalf of such Lender), accompanied by a written statement thereof setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Lender and Agent shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with any documentation prescribed by Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under the Loan Documents. Each such Lender and Agent shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly and on or before the date such documentation expires, becomes obsolete or inaccurate to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Unless the applicable withholding agent has received forms or other documents satisfactory to it indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Lender are not subject to withholding Tax or are subject to such Tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the applicable withholding agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable Law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (d), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this clause (d) that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver. Without limiting 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Each Lender that is a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement and at the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or Administrative Agent two properly completed and duly signed original copies (or, in the case of Revolving Credit Lenders, duly signed copies) of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Lender that is not a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms), claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (B) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (C) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit I</u> hereto (any such certificate a "**United States Tax Compliance Certificate**") and (B) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms), 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; (D) to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership, or is a Participant holding a participation granted by a participating Lender), two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Lender, accompanied by a properly completed and duly signed Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY or any other required information from each beneficial owner, as applicable (*provided* that, if such Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more beneficial owners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Lender on behalf of such beneficial owner(s)).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 Administrative Agent that is a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrowers two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms) with respect to fees received on its own behalf, certifying that such Administrative Agent is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. Each Administrative Agent that is not a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms) with respect to fees received on its own behalf and Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, and including required accompanying documentation with respect to payments to be received by it on behalf of the Lenders, certifying that it is a "U.S. branch" and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business within the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments (and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a resident for tax purposes in the United States with respect to such payments as contemplated by Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the United States Treasury Regulations).

&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) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Laws and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Laws and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from 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;(f) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.01(d) or (e) above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Any Lender or Agent claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.01 shall use its reasonable efforts to mitigate or reduce the additional amounts payable, which reasonable efforts may include a change in the jurisdiction of its Lending Office (or any other measures reasonably requested by the Borrowers) if such a change or other measures would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, result in any unreimbursed cost or expense or be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) If any Lender or Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by a Loan Party pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall promptly remit to such Loan Party an amount equal to the amount of such refund (but only to the extent of indemnification or additional amounts paid by the Loan Party under this Section 3.01(h) with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes) of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect to such refund net of any Taxes payable by any Agent or Lender on such interest); *provided* that the Loan Parties, upon the request of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, shall promptly return such refund (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant taxing authority) to such party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority. The Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall provide the Loan Party with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence reasonably available of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing authority. This Section shall not be construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) For the avoidance of doubt, a "Lender" shall, for purposes of this Section 3.01, include any Issuing Bank and any Swing Line Lender.

Section 3.02 Illegality.

If any Lender reasonably determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Term SOFR Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Term SOFR in each case after the Closing Date, then, on written notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans shall be 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 Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all applicable Term SOFR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate 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), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate with respect to any Base Rate Loans, 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. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment and conversion.

Section 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, after the Closing Date, the Required Lenders reasonably determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Term SOFR Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (ii) the Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended, 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 (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) [Reserved.]

&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) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) [Reserved.]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Upon (A) the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or (B) a determination by the Administrative
Agent that neither of the alternatives under clause (1) of the definition of Benchmark Replacement are available, the Benchmark Replacement
will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at
or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders
without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the
Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising
the Required Lenders (and any such objection shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased
to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant
to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such
Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing
of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark
until the Borrower's receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and,
failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate
Loans. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of Base Rate based upon the Benchmark will not be used in
any determination of Base Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative
Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective
without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders of (A) the
implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination,
decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.03(c), including any determination with
respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take
or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if
the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR), then the Administrative Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark
that is unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings and (B) the Administrative Agent
may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.

Section 3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Term SOFR Loan Reserves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any Lender reasonably determines that as a result of a Change in Law, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Term SOFR Loans, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (including any Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes or (ii) Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document that are excluded from the definition of Indemnified Taxes pursuant to clauses (i) through (vi) thereof), including by imposing, modifying or holding applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, and excluding for purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)), then from time to time within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender's holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of any such Lender's holding companies, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by it, or participations in or issuance of Letters of Credit by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding companies could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's holding companies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, as the case may be, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender's holding companies for any such reduction suffered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Term SOFR funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each applicable Term SOFR Loan of the Borrowers equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financing regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of any Term SOFR Loans of the Borrowers, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; *provided* that the Borrowers shall have received at least fifteen (15) days' prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

Section 3.05 Funding Losses.

Upon written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, which demand shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount, the Borrowers shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits or margin) actually incurred by it as a result of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Term SOFR Loan of the Borrowers on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; 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;(b) any failure by the Borrowers (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Term SOFR Loan of the Borrowers on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrowers;

including any loss or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits or margin) arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Term SOFR Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

Section 3.06 Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or issuing Letters of Credit hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material economic, legal or regulatory respect; *provided* that nothing in this Section 3.06(a) shall affect or postpone any Obligations of the Borrowers or the rights of the Lenders under this Article III.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrowers under Section 3.04, the Borrowers may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term SOFR Loans from one Interest Period to another Interest Period, or to convert Base Rate Loans into Term SOFR Loans, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.06(d) shall be applicable); *provided* that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

&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) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation; *provided* that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers of the event giving rise to such claim and of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue any Term SOFR Loan or to convert Base Rate Loans into Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.06(b) hereof, such Lender's applicable Term SOFR Loans shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such Term SOFR Loans (or, in the case of any immediate conversion required by Section 3.02, on such earlier date as required by Law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) to the extent that such Lender's Term SOFR Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender's applicable Term SOFR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; 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;(ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by such Lender as Term SOFR Loans shall be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans (if possible), and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into Term SOFR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If any Lender gives notice to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of any of such Lender's Term SOFR Loans pursuant to this Section 3.06 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Term SOFR Loans made by other Lenders under the applicable Facility are outstanding, if applicable, such Lender's Base Rate Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Term SOFR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding Term SOFR Loans under such Facility and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments for the applicable Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Any Agent or Lender claiming compensation under this Article III shall deliver a certificate to the Borrowers setting forth in reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder, which shall be conclusive on the absence of manifest error. In determining such amounts, such Agent or Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

Section 3.07 Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances.

If (i) any Lender ceases to make Term SOFR Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.02 or Section 3.04, (ii) the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, (iii) any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, (iv) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or (v) any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Borrowers the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (x) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.07), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, with respect to clause (iii) above, all of its interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, waiver and amendment) and the related Loan Documents to one or more Eligible Assignees (*provided* that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrowers to find a replacement Lender or other such Person) that shall assume such obligations (any of which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); *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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Borrowers or the Assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.07(b)(ii)(B) (unless otherwise waived 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) such Lender being replaced pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall (1) execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to all, or a portion as applicable, of such Lender's Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in LC Obligations and Swing Line Loans, and (2) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrowers or Administrative Agent (or a lost or destroyed note indemnity in lieu thereof); *provided* that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption or deliver such Notes shall not render such sale and purchase (and the corresponding assignment) invalid and such assignment may be recorded in the Register and the Notes shall be deemed to be canceled upon such failure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) upon such payment set forth in clauses (a) and (b) above and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrowers, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent cannot be replaced in its capacity as Administrative Agent other than in accordance with Section 9.06,

or (y) terminate the Commitment of such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and (a) in the case of a Lender (other than an Issuing Bank), repay all Obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date and (b) in the case of an Issuing Bank, repay all Obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Issuing Bank relating to the Loans and participations held by the Issuing Bank as of such termination date and Cash Collateralize, cancel or backstop, or provide for the deemed reissuance under another facility, on terms satisfactory to such Issuing Bank any Letters of Credit issued by it; *provided* that in the case of any such termination of the Commitment of a Non-Consenting Lender such termination shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting Lenders) to cause the adoption of the applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents and such termination shall, with respect to clause (iii) above, be in respect of all of its interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, waiver and amendment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in addition if a Non-Consenting Lender is being replaced in connection with any Extension Amendment, Refinancing Amendment, Permitted Repricing Amendment or amendment effecting a Replacement Term Loan, the Borrowers shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days' advance notice (which notice may be rescinded if the transaction contemplated in such notice is not consummated) to such Non-Consenting Lenders, in lieu of execution of an Assignment and Assumption as otherwise provided for in this clause (b), effect such assignment by purchasing any such Non-Consenting Lender's Loans (which shall be automatically cancelled upon consummation of such acquisition) and unfunded Commitments at par (allocated among the applicable Lenders in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrowers), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon (and, if applicable, any amounts payable pursuant to clause (e) of this Section, Section 3.05 and any amounts under Section 2.05(a)(vi) in connection with a Repricing Transaction). By receiving such purchase price, the applicable Lenders shall automatically be deemed to have assigned such Loans or Commitments pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Assumption, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith.

In the event that (i) the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent has requested that the Lenders consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or agree to any amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of each affected Lender or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Class or Classes of the Loans and/or Commitments and (iii) the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a consent, waiver or amendment involving all affected Lenders or all Lenders of a certain Class or Classes (including to the extent such Classes constitute all outstanding Classes), in lieu of the Required Lenders, the Required Class Lenders) have agreed (but solely to the extent required by Section 10.01) to such consent, waiver or amendment (including, in each case, by virtue of such Lender refusing to make or enter into an Extension Election pursuant to Section 2.16, a Refinancing Amendment pursuant to Section 2.15, a Permitted Repricing Amendment or an amendment effecting a Replacement Term Loan pursuant to Section 10.01), then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed a "**Non-Consenting Lender**."

In connection with any such replacement, if any such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Assumption reflecting such replacement within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption to such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption without any action on the part of the Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in addition if a Non-Consenting Lender is being replaced in connection with any Extension Amendment, Refinancing Amendment, Permitted Repricing Amendment or amendment effecting a Replacement Term Loan, the Administrative Borrower shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days' advance notice (which notice may be rescinded if the transaction contemplated in such notice is not consummated) to such Non-Consenting Lenders, in lieu of execution of an Assignment and Assumption as otherwise provided for in this clause (y), to effect such assignment by purchasing any such Non-Consenting Lender's Loans (which shall automatically be cancelled upon consummation of such acquisition) and unfunded Commitments at par (allocated among the applicable Lenders in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrowers), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest, premium and fees thereon (and, if applicable, any amounts payable pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraphs). By receiving such purchase price, the applicable Lenders shall automatically be deemed to have assigned such Loans or Commitments pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Assumption and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith.

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.

Section 3.08 Survival.

All of the Loan Parties' obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred or Disqualified Equity Interests issued to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness or Disqualified Equity Interests, as applicable, being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness or Disqualified Equity Interests in denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. The principal amount of any non-interest bearing Indebtedness or other discount security constituting Indebtedness at any date shall be the principal amount thereof that would be shown on the consolidated balance sheet of the Parent Borrower dated such date prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (x) no investments made by any Loan Party in any Non-Loan Party in the form of intercompany loans shall be evidenced by a promissory note unless such promissory note, to the extent required to be pledged thereunder, is pledged to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement and (y) any investments in the form of intercompany loans constituting indebtedness of any Loan Party owed to any Non-Loan Party shall be unsecured and subordinated to the Obligations on terms consistent with the subordination provisions of the Intercompany Note in each case, other than indebtedness owed by, or to, a Broker-Dealer Regulated Subsidiary.

&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) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by 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;(iii) require that the Borrowers Cash Collateralize the LC Obligations (in an amount equal to the then Outstanding Amount thereof); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents, any document evidencing Indebtedness in respect of which the Facilities have been designated as "designated senior debt" (or any comparable term) or applicable Law;

*provided* that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as a result of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrowers under any Debtor Relief Laws, the obligation of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the Issuing Banks to make LC Credit Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable and the obligation of the Borrowers to Cash Collateralize the LC Obligations as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the only Events of Default then having occurred and continuing are pursuant to a failure to observe any Financial Covenant or Section 7.14, the Administrative Agent shall only take the actions set forth in this Section 8.02 at the request of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders (as opposed to Required Lenders) or, for the purposes of clause (iii) above, Lenders holding a majority of the Revolving Credit Commitments and only with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments, LC Obligations, any Letters of Credit and LC Credit Extension.

Section 8.03 Application of Funds.

Except as may be otherwise provided in any applicable Incremental Amendment with respect to Obligations under the applicable Incremental Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.14 or in any applicable Refinancing Amendment with respect to Obligations under the applicable Refinancing Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.15 (in each case, which shall not be more favorable to the holders of such Loans than the allocation described below), after the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the LC Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.02), any amounts received on account of the Secured Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order (to the fullest extent permitted by mandatory provisions of applicable Law):

*First*, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than principal and interest, but including Attorney Costs payable under Section 10.04 and amounts payable under Article III payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such);

*Second*, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders (including Attorney Costs payable under Section 10.04 and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this clause *Second* payable to them;

*Third*, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and LC Borrowings, and any fees, premiums and scheduled periodic payments due under Cash Management Agreements or Secured Hedge Agreements, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause *Third* payable to them;

*Fourth*, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans and LC Borrowings (including to Cash Collateralize that portion of LC Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit), and any breakage, termination or other payments under Cash Management Agreements or Secured Hedge Agreements, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them;

*Fifth*, to the payment of all other Secured Obligations that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Secured Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date; and

*Last*, the balance, if any, after all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrowers or as otherwise required by Law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount received from any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Guarantor.

Subject to Section 2.03, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fourth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above and, if no Obligations remain outstanding, will be paid to the Borrowers.

**Article IX.** **<u><br> ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER AGENTS</u>**

Section 9.01 Appointment and Authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each of the Lenders and Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America, N.A to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article IX (other than this Section 9.01, Section 9.06 (solely with respect to the removal and consent rights of the Borrowers set forth therein), Section 9.09, Section 9.10 and Section 9.11) are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term "agent" herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the "collateral agent" under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Hedge Bank) and Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and Issuing Bank for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as "collateral agent" and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX and Article X (including the second paragraph of Section 10.05), as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the "collateral agent" under the Loan Documents as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to (i) execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral (including any Intercreditor Agreement and any amendment, supplement, modification or joinder with respect thereto) and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders and (ii) negotiate, enforce or settle any claim, action or proceeding affecting the Lenders in their capacity as such, at the direction of the Required Lenders, which negotiation, enforcement or settlement will be binding upon each Lender.

Section 9.02 Rights as a Lender.

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

Section 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 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;(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers, a Lender or an Issuing Bank; and

It is understood and agreed by each Secured Party that the Administrative Agent shall have no liability for any determinations made by it under Section 8.03, in each case except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). Each Secured Party also agrees that the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to), at any time and in its sole discretion, and with no liability resulting therefrom, petition a court of competent jurisdiction regarding any application of Collateral in accordance with the requirements hereof, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to wait for, and may conclusively rely on, any such determination.

Section 9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent.

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

Section 9.05 Delegation of Duties.

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

Section 9.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrowers upon thirty (30) days' written notice to the Borrowers and the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent or a Controlling Affiliate of the Administrative Agent is subject to an Agent-Related Distress Event, the Parent Borrower may remove the Administrative Agent from such role upon ten (10) days' written notice to the Lenders. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation or removal by the Parent Borrower, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Administrative Borrower at all times other than upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default under Sections 8.01(a) or, solely with respect to the Parent Borrower, 8.01(f), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation or removal, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above (including consent of the Administrative Borrower); *provided* that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation or removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice. The resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks under any of the Loan Documents, the resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security (including any collateral security subsequently delivered to the Administrative Agent) until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and Issuing Bank directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 9.06. Upon the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder and delivery of collateral security in the possession of the resigning or removed Administrative Agent to such successor Administrative Agent (to the extent that possession thereof perfect a Lien thereon under the UCC of any jurisdiction), such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning (or resigned) or removed Administrative Agent, and the resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 9.06). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the resigning Administrative Agent's resignation or the removed Administrative Agent's removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such resigning or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the resigning or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Any resignation by, or removal of, Bank of America, N.A. as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.06 shall also constitute its resignation or removal as Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender, in which case such resigning or removed Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender (x) shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit or extend any further Swing Line Loans hereunder and (y) shall maintain all of its rights as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it or Swing Line Loans extended by it, as applicable, prior to the date of such resignation or removal so long as such Letters of Credit, LC Obligations or Swing Line Loans remain outstanding and not otherwise Cash Collateralized in accordance with the terms herein. Upon the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender, (ii) the resigning or removed Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (iii) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the resigning or removed Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the resigning or removed Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.

Each Lender and Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 9.08 No Other Duties, Etc.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Administrative Agent, Bookrunner, Arranger, Syndication Agent or Documentation Agent listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder.

Section 9.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim; Credit Bidding..

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or LC Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Parent Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

&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) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03, 2.09, 10.04 and 10.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09, 10.04 and 10.05.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank or in any such proceeding.

The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar Laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable Laws. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid, (ii) to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in clauses (a) through (j) of Section 11.01 of this Agreement, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to assign the relevant Obligations to any such acquisition vehicle pro rata by the Lenders, as a result of which each of the Lenders shall be deemed to have received a pro rata portion of any Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by such an acquisition vehicle on account of the assignment of the Obligations to be credit bid, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (iv) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders pro rata and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Obligations that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action.

Section 9.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Collateral Documents which may be necessary to create, perfect and maintain perfected security interests in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents. Without limiting the provisions of Section 9.09, each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Hedge Bank) and Issuing Banks irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option, and in its sole discretion (other than releases described in <u>clauses (b)</u> and <u>(d)</u> below which shall not be optional or discretionary):

&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) to enter into and sign for and on behalf of the Lenders, as Secured Parties, the Collateral Documents (including any subordination or intercreditor agreements with respect to Indebtedness and Liens permitted under this Agreement to the extent the Administrative Agent is otherwise contemplated herein as being a party to such intercreditor or subordination agreement) for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured 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;(b) to automatically release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations and (B) the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit that are Cash Collateralized or back- stopped by a letter of credit in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank or a deemed reissuance under another facility as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank shall have been made)), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is Disposed or to be Disposed (to a Person that is not a Loan Party) as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (d) below or Section 11.09 or (v) if the property subject to such Lien constitutes Excluded Assets;

&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) to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(u) to the extent required by the holder of, or pursuant to the terms of any agreement governing, the obligations secured by such Liens; 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;(d) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement (including the Guaranty) if such Guarantor becomes a Released Guarantor in accordance with Section 11.09.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent's authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10. In each case as specified in this Section 9.10, the Administrative Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Borrowers' expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent's Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by the Borrowers or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

Section 9.11 Secured Hedge Agreements.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Guaranty or any Collateral Document, no Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 8.03, any Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guaranty or any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Secured Obligations arising under Cash Management Agreements or Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Secured Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Hedge Bank.

The Lenders and the Hedge Banks hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement or arrangement (including any subordination agreement or arrangement) permitted under this Agreement, and any amendment, modification, supplement or joinder with respect thereto, and the Lenders and the Hedge Banks acknowledge that any such intercreditor agreement is binding upon the Lenders and Hedge Banks.

Section 9.12 Withholding Tax Indemnity.

To the extent required by any applicable Laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall, within 10 days after written demand therefor, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Loan Parties pursuant to Section 3.01 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.12. The agreements in this Section 9.12 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the term "Lender" shall, for purposes of this <u>Section 9.12</u>, include any Issuing Bank and any Swing Line Lender.

Section 9.13 Indemnification by the Lenders.

The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Shares in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.13 from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Term Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) under or in connection with any of the foregoing; IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE, provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent arising from (a) such Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct or (b) claims made or legal proceedings commenced against such Agent by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such. The agreements in this Section 9.13 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Without limitation of any other provision in this Agreement, if at any time the Administrative Agent makes a payment hereunder in error to any Lender (the "**Credit Party**"), whether or not in respect of an Obligation due and owing by the Borrower at such time, where such payment is a Rescindable Amount, then in any such event, each Credit Party receiving a Rescindable Amount severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount received by such Credit Party in immediately available funds in the currency so received, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Rescindable Amount is received by 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. Each Credit Party irrevocably waives any and all defenses, including any "discharge for value" (under which a creditor might otherwise claim a right to retain funds mistakenly paid by a third party in respect of a debt owed by another) or similar defense to its obligation to return any Rescindable Amount. The Administrative Agent shall inform each Credit Party promptly upon determining that any payment made to such Credit Party comprised, in whole or in part, a Rescindable Amount.

**Article X.** **<u><br> MISCELLANEOUS</u>**

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders (it being understood that any Commitments or Loans held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Required Lenders or Required Class Lenders)), except that (x) the Commitment of any such Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, the rate of interest on any Loans of any Defaulting Lender may not be reduced and the principal amount of any of such Loans may not be forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each directly and adversely affected Lender that by its terms materially and adversely affects any Defaulting Lender to a greater extent than other affected Lenders (or, if there are no such affected Lenders (other than such affected Lenders which are Defaulting Lenders), Lenders of the same Class) shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Lender consent is required for the Administrative Agent to enter into or to effect any amendment, modification or supplement to any ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, any Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, any subordination agreement or other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement or in any document pertaining to any Indebtedness permitted hereby that is permitted to be secured by the Collateral, including any Incremental Loans, any Incremental Equivalent Debt, any Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt or any Permitted Junior Secured Refinancing Debt (i) that is for the purpose of adding the holders of such secured or subordinated Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Agreement (or, in each case, a Senior Representative with respect thereto), as parties thereto, as expressly contemplated by the terms of such ABL Intercreditor Agreement, First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, such Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, such subordination agreement or such other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement, as applicable (it being understood that any such amendment or supplement may make such other changes to the applicable intercreditor agreement as, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, are required to effectuate the foregoing and *provided* that such other changes are not adverse, in any material respect (taken as a whole), to the interests of the Lenders) or (ii) that is expressly contemplated by any ABL Intercreditor Agreement, any First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement, any subordination agreement or other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement or in any document pertaining to any Indebtedness permitted hereby that is permitted to be secured by the Collateral, including any Incremental Loans, any Incremental Equivalent Debt, any Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt or any Permitted Junior Secured Refinancing Debt; *provided, further*, that no such agreement shall directly and adversely amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans and LC Obligations and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and the Lenders providing the Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all or a portion of the outstanding Term Loans of any Class ("**Replaced Term Loans**") with one or more tranches of replacement term loans ("**Replacement Term Loans**") hereunder; *provided* that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Replaced Term Loans, plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Replaced Term Loans plus the amount of any tender premium or penalty or premium required to be paid under the terms of the instrument or documents governing such Replaced Term Loans and any defeasance costs and any fees and expenses (including OID, upfront fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with the issuance of such Replacement Term Loans (but nothing in this clause (a) shall limit the ability of the Borrowers to incur Incremental Loans of the same Class or of a different Class at the same time if such incurrence is otherwise permitted hereunder), (b) [reserved], (c) except to the extent incurred under the then available Inside Maturity Basket, the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replaced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and (d) all other terms (other than with respect to pricing, interest rate margins, fees, discounts, rate floors and prepayment or redemption terms) applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall either, at the option of the Borrowers, (i) reflect market terms and conditions (taken as a whole) at the time of incurrence of such Replacement Term Loans (as determined by the Administrative Borrower in good faith), (ii) if not otherwise consistent with the terms of such Replaced Term Loans, not be materially more restrictive to the Borrowers (as determined by the Administrative Borrower in good faith), when taken as a whole, than the terms of such Replaced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for (x) covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the Latest Maturity Date of the Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing or (y) subject to the immediately succeeding proviso, a Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant; *provided* that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any such terms of the Replacement Term Loans contain a Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant that is in effect prior to the applicable Latest Maturity Date, such Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant shall be included for the benefit of each Facility or (iii) be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (it being understood that any covenants or other provisions applicable to periods after the Latest Maturity Date need not be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). Each amendment to this Agreement providing for Replacement Term Loans may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers to effect the provisions of this paragraph, including any amendments necessary in connection with any Replacement Term Loans necessary to provide that such Replacement Term Loans are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with an existing Class of Term Loans, and for the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph shall supersede any other provisions in this Section 10.01 to the contrary. If necessary to consummate any such Replacement Term Loans as fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with an existing Class of Term Loans, the interest rate margins and rate floors on the applicable existing Class of Term Loans may be automatically increased and any call protection provision may be made more favorable to the applicable existing Lenders.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.01, the Guaranty, the Collateral Documents and related documents executed by the Loan Parties or the Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Administrative Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure any ambiguities or defects or (iii) to cause such Guaranty, Collateral Document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01, if the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower shall have jointly identified an ambiguity, mistake, obvious error (including, but not limited to, an incorrect cross-reference) or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any exhibit, schedule or other attachment to any Loan Document), then the Administrative Agent (acting in its sole discretion) and the Administrative Borrower or any other relevant Loan Party shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document. Notification of such amendment shall be made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders promptly upon such amendment becoming effective.

In case any Proceeding is instituted involving any Indemnitee for which indemnification is to be sought hereunder by such Indemnitee, then such Indemnitee will promptly notify the Parent Borrower of the commencement of any such Proceeding; *provided*, *however*, that the failure so to notify the Parent Borrower will not relieve the Borrowers from any liability to such Indemnitee pursuant to this <u>Section 10.05</u>. Each applicable Indemnitee (by accepting the benefits hereof) agrees to refund and return any and all amounts paid by or on behalf of the Borrowers (or any other Loan Party) to such Indemnitee, in each case, pursuant to the terms of this paragraph to the extent such Indemnitee is not entitled to the payment thereof pursuant to the terms of this paragraph, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement (except for direct (as opposed to indirect, special, punitive or consequential) damages resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct of, or material breach of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment, of any such Indemnitee), nor shall any Indemnitee, Related Indemnified Person, Loan Party or any Subsidiary have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date) (other than, in the case of any Loan Party, in respect of any such obligations, liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements, claims or expenses incurred or paid or required to be paid by an Indemnitee to a third party (including another Indemnitee)). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, any Subsidiary of any Loan Party, its directors, stockholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents are consummated. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be paid within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor (together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request). The agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the resignation of an Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.05 shall not apply to Taxes, except any Taxes that represent liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, prepayments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements arising from any non-Tax claims.

The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d).

Section 10.06 Payments Set Aside.

To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers is made to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and Issuing Bank severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, <u>plus</u> interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Parent Borrower may not (except as permitted by Section 7.04) assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (including to existing Lenders and their Affiliates) except (i) to an Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(b) (such an assignee, an "**Eligible Assignee**") and in the case of any Assignee that is the Parent Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries, Section 2.05(a)(v) or 10.07(l), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(e), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(g) or (i) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(h) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void); *provided*, *however*, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender may assign or, other than in the case of clause (iii) below, transfer by participation any of its rights or obligations hereunder to (i) any Person that is a Defaulting Lender, (ii) a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person), (iii) a Disqualified Institution (unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Borrower in its sole discretion and, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, without giving effect to any provision providing for deemed consent by the Administrative Borrower) or (iv) to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (except pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(v)or Section 10.07(l), as applicable). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.07(e) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees ("**Assignees**") all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except in connection with a proposed assignment to any Disqualified Institution, which consent by the Administrative Borrower may be withheld in its sole discretion) of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Administrative Borrower; *provided* that no consent of the Administrative Borrower shall be required for (i) an assignment of all or a portion of (a) the Term Loans or Term Commitments, to a Term Lender, an Affiliate of a Term Lender or an Approved Fund of a Term Lender and (b) the Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments to a Revolving Credit Lender, an Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Lender or an Approved Fund of a Revolving Credit Lender, (ii) other than with respect to any proposed assignment to a Disqualified Institution, if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or, solely with respect to the Parent Borrower, Section 8.01(f) has occurred and is continuing, to any Assignee or (iii) an assignment of all or a portion of the Loans pursuant to Section 10.07(l); *provided* that, other than with respect to any proposed assignment to a Disqualified Institution, the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment of the Term Loans unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having acknowledged receipt of a written notice thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Administrative Agent; *provided* that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment (i) of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (ii) of all or a portion of the Loans pursuant to Section 10.7(l);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) each applicable Issuing Bank at the time of such assignment; *provided* that no consent of the applicable Issuing Bank shall be required for any assignment not related to Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Exposure; 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;(D) the Swing Line Lender; *provided* that no consent of the Swing Line Lender shall be required for any assignment not related to Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Exposure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than an amount of $5,000,000 (in the case of each Revolving Credit Commitment) or $1,000,000 (in the case of a Term Loan), and shall be in increments of an amount of $1,000,000 (in the case of each Revolving Credit Commitment) or $1,000,000 (in the case of Term Loans), in excess thereof unless each of the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; *provided* that such assignments shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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 parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption either manually or via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (unless waived or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) other than in the case of assignments pursuant to Section 10.07(l), the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; 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;(D) the Assignee shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower the forms described in Sections 3.01(d) and 3.01(e) applicable to it.

This paragraph (b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis among such Facilities.

In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of 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 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 Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

The Administrative Agent shall not 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 or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant 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 disclosure of confidential information, to any ‎Disqualified Institution. The identity of Disqualified Institutions will not be posted or distributed to any Person by the Administrative Agent or Arranger, but may be communicated by the Administrative Agent to a Lender upon request therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, (1) other than in connection with an assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(l), the Eligible 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 (2) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits and subject to the obligations of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note, the Borrowers (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause (c) 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 Section 10.07(e).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent's Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and each notice of cancellation of any Loans delivered by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 10.07(l) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the Loans, LC Obligations (specifying the unreimbursed LC Disbursements), LC Borrowings and the amounts due under Section 2.03, owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "**Register**"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents 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, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, any Agent and any Lender (solely with respect to the information as it relates to such Lender), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 10.07(d) and Section 2.11 shall be construed so that all Loans are at all times maintained in "registered form" within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related Treasury regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or of such Treasury regulations).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any Lender may at any time sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person), a Defaulting Lender or a Disqualified Institution) (each, a "**Participant**") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender's participations in LC Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); *provided* that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. 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 the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; *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 clauses (a), (b), (c), (e), (f) and (j) of the first proviso to Section 10.01 that requires the affirmative vote of such Lender. Subject to Section 10.07(f), the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits and subject to the obligations of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender (subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to the limitations and requirements of those Sections applying to each Participant as if it were a Lender and provided that any documentation required to be provided under Section 3.01(d) shall be provided solely to the participating Lender) and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(c). To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender; *provided* that such Participant also shall 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 Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of each Participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "**Participant Register**"). 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. The portion of any Participant Register relating to any Participant or SPC requesting payment from the Borrowers or seeking to exercise its rights under Section 10.09 shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or any other Person only 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 and Section 1.163-5(b) of the proposed United States Treasury Regulations. 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;(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless (i) such entitlement to a greater payment results from a Change in Law after the sale of the participation to such Participant takes place or (ii) the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Administrative Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless such Participant complies with Sections 3.01(a), (d), (e), (f) and (h) as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(d) shall be delivered solely to the participating Lender and, at the time such participant has made a claim under Section 3.01, as necessary to substantiate a claim for additional amounts pursuant to Section 3.01).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, 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 or to any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; *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;(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a "**Granting Lender**") may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (other than a Disqualified Institution) identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower (an "**SPC**") the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; *provided* that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) such SPC and the applicable Loan or any applicable part thereof, shall be appropriately reflected in the Participant Register. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) an SPC shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and the limitations of such Sections), but neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement except, in the case of Section 3.01, to the extent that the grant to the SPC was made with the prior written consent of the Administrative Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; for the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Borrower shall have a reasonable basis for withholding consent if an exercise by an SPC immediately after the grant would result in materially increased indemnification obligation to the Borrowers at such time), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the Lender hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, without the consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, (1) any Lender may in accordance with applicable Law create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it and (2) any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee (other than a Disqualified Institution) for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; *provided* that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) Any Lender may, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Loans under this Agreement to the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary through (x) Dutch auctions or other offers to purchase open to all Lenders holding Term Loans of such class on a pro rata basis consistent with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(a)(v) or (y) notwithstanding Sections 2.12 and 2.13 or any other provision in this Agreement, open market purchase on a non-pro rata basis; *provided*, *further*, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) upon such assignment to any Restricted Subsidiary, such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have assigned or transferred the principal amount of such Term Loans, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the Parent Borrower; *provided* that any such contribution shall not increase any availability or amount permitted pursuant to any covenant under Article VII;

&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 the assignee is the Parent Borrower (including through contribution, assignments or transfers set forth in clause (i) above), (a) the principal amount of such Term Loans, along with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, so contributed, assigned or transferred to the Borrowers shall be deemed automatically cancelled and extinguished on the date of such contribution, assignment or transfer, (b) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of the remaining Lenders shall reflect such cancellation and extinguishing of the Term Loans then held by the Parent Borrower and (c) the Parent Borrower shall promptly provide notice to the Administrative Agent of such contribution, assignment or transfer of such Term Loans, and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notice, shall reflect the cancellation of the applicable Term Loans in the Register; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) purchases of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 10.07(l) shall not be funded with the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans or ABL Revolving Loans.

Each Lender participating in any assignment to the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (1) the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries then may have, and later may come into possession of Excluded Information, (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on, any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any other Agent-Related Persons, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such assignment notwithstanding such Lender's lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information, (3) none of the Administrative Agent or any other Agent-Related Persons shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the Administrative Agent and any other Agent-Related Persons, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information and (4) that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an entire Class of Loans or Commitments is refinanced or replaced in full with other Loans or Commitments hereunder, the Parent Borrower shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days' advance notice (which notice may be rescinded if the transactions contemplated by such Refinancing Amendment are not consummated) to each Lender holding any Class of Loans or Commitments being refinanced or replaced to consummate such refinancing or replacement of such Class by way of assignment by purchasing each such Lender's Loans or unfunded Commitments at par, accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon (including, if applicable, amounts payable pursuant to <u>Section 2.05(a)(vi)</u> if in connection with a Repricing Transaction or <u>Section 3.07(e)</u>) instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be refinanced or replaced. The assigned Loans and Commitments shall be amended immediately thereafter in accordance with <u>Section 10.01</u> to reflect the terms of any such refinancing or replacement. The assignee under any such assignment may be (but shall not be required to be) the Administrative Agent, any arranger of the new Loans or Commitments or any other Person designated by the Administrative Agent. By receiving the purchase price, the Lenders having the replaced or refinanced Class of Loans or Commitments shall automatically be deemed to have assigned such Loans or Commitments pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Assumption, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral.

Section 10.08 Confidentiality.

Each of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates' limited partners, lenders, investors, managed accounts, officers, directors, employees, legal counsel, independent auditors, professionals, service providers and other experts or agents, in each case other than Excluded Affiliates (collectively, "**Representatives**") who need to know such Information (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and agree to keep such Information confidential and the Agents and the Lenders shall be principally liable to the extent any confidentiality restrictions set forth herein are violated by one or more of its Representatives); (b) to the extent required or requested by any Governmental Authority or self-regulatory authority having or asserting jurisdiction over such Person (including any Governmental Authority regulating any Lender or its Affiliates), *provided* that the applicable Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will promptly notify the Administrative Borrower prior to any such disclosure by such Person (other than at the request of a regulatory authority as part of a regulatory examination) unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or order of any court or administrative agency or in any pending legal or administrative proceeding or similar legal process, *provided* that the applicable Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will notify the Administrative Borrower in advance of any such disclosure by such Person (except with respect to any routine audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or regulatory authority exercising routine examination or regulatory authority) unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Borrower), to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee or potential Lender invited to be an Additional Lender (except, in each case, to the extent the Administrative Borrower has declined to consent to such assignment), any pledgee referred to in Section 10.07(g), any actual or prospective direct or indirect counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations or any actual or potential insurer or reinsurer in connection with providing insurance, reinsurance or credit risk mitigation coverage; (f) with the written consent of the Administrative Borrower; (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08 or other obligation of confidentiality owed to the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates; (h) to any rating agency when required by it on a customary basis and after consultation with the Administrative Borrower (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries received by it from such Lender) or to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization; (i) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder, under any other Loan Document or the enforcement of its rights hereunder or thereunder; (j) to the extent that such information is independently developed by the applicable Agent or its Affiliates (other than any Excluded Affiliates) or the applicable Lender or its Affiliates in each case so long as not based on information obtained in a manner that would otherwise violate this Section 10.08, (k) for purposes of establishing a "due diligence" defense; or (l) to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Arranger and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement; *provided* that, in each case, no disclosure shall be made to any Disqualified Institution. In addition, the Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions; provided that such Person is advised and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.08.

<u>For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein prohibits any individual from communicating or disclosing information regarding suspected violations of laws, rules, or regulations to a governmental, regulatory, or self-regulatory authority without any notification to any Person.</u>

For purposes of this Section, "**Information**" means all information received from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof relating to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof, their respective businesses and their respective Affiliates and their Affiliates' directors, officers, employees, trustees, investments advisors or agents, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08.

The provisions of this paragraph shall not affect any Borrowers' obligations under the last paragraph of Section 6.02.

Section 10.09 Setoff.

In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates (and the Administrative Agent, in respect of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses payable hereunder) is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrowers, any such notice being waived by the Borrowers (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, after obtaining the written consent of the Administrative Agent, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding escrow, payroll, petty cash, trust and tax accounts) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates or the Administrative Agent to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness; *provided* that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; *provided* that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent and such Lender may have at Law.

Section 10.10 Interest Rate Limitation.

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

Section 10.11 Counterparts; Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents.

This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by facsimile, .pdf or other electronic means of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement and such other Loan Document. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by facsimile, .pdf or other electronic means be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; *provided* that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by facsimile, .pdf or other electronic means.

This Agreement and any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice, certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Amendment (each a "Communication"), including Communications required to be in writing, may, if agreed by the parties hereto, be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures, including, without limitation, facsimile and/or .pdf. Each of the Loan Parties hereto agrees that any Electronic Signature (including, without limitation, facsimile or .pdf) on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on them to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Loan Parties enforceable against them in accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered to the Agent. Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the Agent of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Agent may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record ("Electronic Copy"), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of the Agent's, business, and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Agent shall be under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Agent pursuant to procedures approved by them; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Loan Parties without further verification and (b) upon the request of the Agent any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed, original counterpart. For purposes hereof, "Electronic Record" and "Electronic Signature" shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time.

Section 10.12 Integration.

This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. Subject to Section 10.20 in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; *provided* that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

Section 10.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted, in any such case, not then due and payable) or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding (unless the Outstanding Amount of the LC Obligations related thereto has been Cash Collateralized or back-stopped by a letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank or such Letter of Credit has been deemed reissued under another agreement acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank).

Section 10.14 Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions; *provided* that the Lenders shall charge no fee in connection with any such amendment. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.14, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 10.22 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "**QFC Credit Support**", and each such QFC, a "**Supported QFC**"), 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.S. Special Resolution Regimes**") 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):

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.

The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that if the Borrowers or other Guarantor(s) shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

Section 11.02 Obligations Unconditional.

The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 11.01 shall constitute a guaranty of payment and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or Guarantor (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, to the extent permitted by Law, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted (including incurring any increase or decrease in the principal amount of the Guaranteed Obligations or the rate of interest or the fees thereon);

&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 maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or except as permitted pursuant to Section 11.09, any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

&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 Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; 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;(v) the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 11.09.

The Guarantors waive, to the extent permitted by Law, any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between the Borrowers and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by Secured Parties, and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrowers or against any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and permitted assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders, and their respective successors and permitted assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

Section 11.03 Reinstatement.

The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article XI shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

Section 11.04 Subrogation; Subordination.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall subordinate any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 11.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against the Borrowers or any other Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any Indebtedness of any Loan Party to any Non-Loan Party permitted pursuant to 7.03(b) or (d) shall be subordinated to such Loan Party's Secured Obligations in the manner set forth in the Intercompany Note evidencing such Indebtedness.

Section 11.05 Remedies.

The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.02 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 8.02) for purposes of Section 11.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrowers and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrowers) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 11.01.

Section 11.06 Instrument for the Payment of Money.

Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article XI constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor (other than the Borrowers) under Section 11.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 11.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the liability under this Guaranty and the right of contribution established in Section 11.10) that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, (i) any Guarantor that is a Restricted Subsidiary of a Loan Party ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of a Loan Party in a transaction permitted hereunder, (ii) any Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if the release of such Guarantor is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (any such Guarantor referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) a "**Released Guarantor**"), such Released Guarantor shall upon the consummation of the related transaction, change in status, request, approval, authorization or ratification be (in the case of clauses (i) and (iii)) automatically released and (in the case of clause (ii)) released by the Administrative Agent pursuant to appropriate documentation following a written request from the Administrative Borrower to the Administrative Agent requesting such release, in each case, from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 10.05 hereof) and the other Loan Documents, including its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Collateral Document and, in the case of a sale of any of the Equity Interests of the Released Guarantor to a Person that is not a Loan Party, the pledge of such Equity Interests to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents shall be automatically released, and, so long as the Borrowers shall have provided the Administrative Agent such certifications or documents as any Agent shall reasonably request, the Administrative Agent shall take such actions as are necessary to effect each release described in this Section 11.09 in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents; *provided*, that no such release shall occur, and no such Guarantor shall constitute a Released Guarantor, if (x) such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any other First Lien Obligations, any ABL Obligations, any Second Lien Obligations or any Junior Financing or (y) such Guarantor continues to constitute a Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower and becomes an Excluded Subsidiary under clause (a) of the definition thereof unless (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary under clause (a) of the definition thereof, (ii) after giving Pro Forma Effect to such release and the consummation of the transaction that causes such Person to become an Excluded Subsidiary under clause (a) of the definition thereof, the Borrowers and Restricted Subsidiaries shall be deemed to have made an Investment in, or a Restricted Payment in respect of, as applicable, such Person (as if such Person were then newly acquired or formed) and such Investment or Restricted Payment is permitted hereunder at such time and (iii) for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders only, the transaction causing such Guarantor to become a non-wholly owned Subsidiary is for a bona fide business purpose with a non-Affiliated third-party.

When all Commitments hereunder have terminated, and all Loans or other Obligations hereunder (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) have been paid or satisfied in full, and no Letter of Credit remains outstanding (except any Letter of Credit the Outstanding Amount of which the Obligations related thereto has been Cash Collateralized or for which a backstop letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank has been put in place or such Letter of Credit has been deemed reissued under another agreement reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank), this Agreement and the Guarantees made herein shall terminate with respect to all Obligations, except with respect to Obligations that expressly survive such repayment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Section 11.10 Right of Contribution.

Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor's right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 11.04. The provisions of this Section 11.10 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swing Line Lender and the Lenders, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swing Line Lender and the Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

Section 11.11 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 Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of any Swap Obligations (*provided*, *however*, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 11.11 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 11.11, or otherwise under this Agreement, 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 11.11 shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full and discharge of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 11.11 constitute, and this Section 11.11 shall be deemed to constitute, a "keepwell, support, or other agreement" for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 11.12 Independent Obligation.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor, any other party or the Borrowers, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor, any other party or the Borrowers and whether or not any other Guarantor, any other party or the Borrowers be joined in any such action or actions.
