#### EIGHTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
***THIS EIGHTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT***, dated as of July 22, 2016 is entered into by and among:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WestRock Financial, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("***Borrower***"),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WestRock Converting Company, a Georgia corporation ("***Converting***"), as initial Servicer (the Servicer together with Borrower, the "***Loan Parties***" and each, a "***Loan Party***"),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A., New York Branch ("***Rabobank***"), in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder or any successor administrative agent hereunder (together with its successors and assigns hereunder, the "***Administrative Agent***") and in its capacity as funding agent for the Co-Agents and the Lenders or any successor funding agent hereunder (together with its successors and assigns hereunder, the "***Funding Agent***" collectively with the Administrative Agent and the Co-Agents, the "***Agents***"), and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Lenders and the Co-Agents from time to time party hereto,

and amends and restates in its entirety that certain Seventh Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement dated as of June 29, 2015, as amended prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, by and among the Loan Parties, Nieuw Amsterdam Receivables Corporation, B.V., Rabobank, individually and as a Co-Agent, the other Lenders and the Co-Agents from time to time party thereto, and Rabobank, as Administrative Agent.

Each Unaffiliated Committed Lender shall, at the request of Borrower, make its Percentage of such Advance.

The Conduits may, in their absolute and sole discretion, make Advances to Borrower from time to time. In the event that any Conduit declines to make its Conduit Group's Percentage of any Advance, the applicable Conduit's Committed Lender(s) shall, at the request of Borrower, make such Conduit Group's Percentage of such Advance.

Royal Bank of Canada, a party to the Seventh Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement, shall no longer be a Lender and its Commitment shall be distributed among the Lenders party hereto in accordance with Schedule A hereto.

#### ARTICLE I. <br> THE ADVANCES
Section 1.1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Credit Facility</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Borrower may request Advances in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of the Aggregate Commitment and the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, the "***Borrowing Limit***"); 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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; upon receipt of a copy of each Borrowing Notice, (A) each Unaffiliated Committed Lender severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice, and (B) each Co-Agent belonging to a Conduit Group shall determine whether its Conduit, if any, will fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Conduit Group's Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice. In the event that a Co-Agent elects not to have its Conduit make any such Loan to Borrower, the applicable Co-Agent shall promptly notify the Funding Agent (who shall promptly notify the Borrower) and, unless Borrower cancels its Borrowing Notice as to all Lenders, (1) each Unaffiliated Committed Lender severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the requested Advance, (2) each of such Conduit's Committed Lenders severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of its Conduit Group's Percentage of such Loan and (3) each other Conduit shall fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the required Advance, ***provided that*** (x) at no time may the aggregate principal amount of any Conduit Group's Loans outstanding, exceed the lesser of (x) the aggregate amount of such Conduit's Committed Lenders' Commitments, and (y) such Conduit Group's Percentage of the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, such Conduit Group's "***Allocation Limit***"), and (y) at no time may the aggregate principal amount of any Unaffiliated Committed Lender's Loans outstanding exceed the lesser of (x) such Unaffiliated Committed Lender's Commitment and (y) its Percentage of the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, such Unaffiliated Committed Lender's "***Allocation Limit***").

Each Advance shall be made ratably amongst the Conduit Groups and the Unaffiliated Committed Lenders, collectively, in accordance with their respective Percentages. Each of the Advances, and all other Obligations of Borrower, shall be secured by the Collateral as provided in Article XIII. Subject to Sections 1.6(d) and (e), it is the intent of the Conduits, but not the Committed Lenders, to fund all Advances by the issuance of Commercial Paper. Borrower shall not make a request for more than six (6) Advances during any calendar month, and no more than six (6) Advances shall occur, during any calendar month. No more than two (2) Advances shall occur, during any calendar week.

------

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Borrower may, upon at least 10 Business Days' notice to the Funding Agent (who shall promptly provide such notice to the Co-Agents), terminate in whole or reduce in part, ratably among the Committed Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments, the unused portion of the Aggregate Commitment; ***provided that*** each partial reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $20,000,000 (or a larger integral multiple of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof) and shall reduce the Commitments of the Committed Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments.

Section 1.2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Increases</u>. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2nd) Business Day prior to a proposed borrowing, Borrower shall provide the Funding Agent with written notice of each Advance in the form set forth as Exhibit II-A hereto (each, a "***Borrowing Notice***"). The Funding Agent shall promptly provide each such Borrowing Notice to the Co-Agents. Each Borrowing Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2 hereof and, except as set forth below, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested increase in Aggregate Principal (which shall not be less than $5,000,000 or a larger integral multiple of $100,000) and the Borrowing Date and the requested Interest Rate and Interest Period for any portion to be funded by any Committed Lender. Upon receipt of a Borrowing Notice, (a) each Unaffiliated Committed Lender severally agrees to fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice, and (b) each Co-Agent shall determine whether its Conduit will fund a Loan in an amount equal to its Conduit Group's Percentage of the requested Advance specified in such Borrowing Notice. If a Conduit declines to make its Percentage of a proposed Advance, Borrower may cancel the Borrowing Notice as to all Lenders or, in the absence of such a cancellation, the Advance will be made by each Unaffiliated Committed Lender, each other Conduit and such Conduit's Committed Lenders. On the date of each Advance, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, each applicable Lender will cause the proceeds of its Loan comprising a portion of such Advance to be deposited to the Funding Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 2:30 p.m. (New York City time), an amount equal to (i) in the case of a Conduit or an Unaffiliated Committed Lender, its Percentage of the principal amount of the requested Advance or (ii) in the case of a Conduit's Committed Lender, each such Committed Lender's Pro Rata Share of its Conduit Group's Percentage of the principal amount of the requested Advance. The Funding Agent shall remit such funds (to the extent received in the Funding Account) to the Facility Account, no later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such date.

Section 1.3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Decreases</u>. Except as provided in Section 1.4, Borrower shall provide the Funding Agent with prior written notice by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) of any proposed reduction of Aggregate Principal in the form of Exhibit II-B hereto in conformity with the Required Notice Period (each, a "***Reduction Notice***"). The Funding Agent shall promptly provide each such Reduction Notice to the Co-Agents. Such Reduction Notice shall designate (i) the date (the "***Proposed Reduction Date***") upon which any such reduction of Aggregate Principal shall occur (which date shall give effect to the applicable Required Notice Period), and (ii) the amount of Aggregate Principal to be reduced which shall be applied ratably to the Loans of each of the Lenders in accordance with the principal amount (if any) thereof (the "***Aggregate Reduction***"). Borrower shall not make a request for more than one (1) Proposed Reduction Date, and no more than one (1) Aggregate Reduction shall occur, during any calendar week.

------

Section 1.4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Deemed Collections; Borrowing Limit</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If on any 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced as a result of any defective or rejected goods or services, any cash discount or any other adjustment by any Originator or any Affiliate thereof, 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;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff in respect of any claim by the Obligor thereof (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related or an unrelated transaction), or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced on account of the obligation of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof to pay to the related Obligor any rebate or refund, 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;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is less than the amount included in calculating the Net Pool Balance for purposes of any Monthly Report (for any reason other than receipt of Collections thereon or such Receivable becoming a Defaulted Receivable), 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;(v)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; any of the representations or warranties of Borrower set forth in Section 5.1(i), (j), (r), (s), (t) or (u) were not true when made with respect to any Receivable,

then, on such day, Borrower shall be deemed to have received a Collection of such Receivable (A) in the case of clauses (i)-(iv) above, in the amount of such reduction or cancellation or the difference between the actual Outstanding Balance and the amount included in calculating such Net Pool Balance, as applicable; and (B) in the case of clause (v) above, in the amount of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable, which Receivable shall then be released from the Collateral, and, effective as of the date on which the next succeeding Monthly Report is required to be delivered, the Borrowing Base shall be reduced by the amount of such Deemed Collection.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Borrower shall ensure that the Aggregate Principal at no time exceeds the Borrowing Limit. If at any time the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans from any Unaffiliated Committed Lender or from any Conduit Group exceeds its Allocation Limit, or the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding from any Conduit exceeds the Liquidity Commitments of its Conduit Group's Committed Lenders pursuant to its Liquidity Agreement divided by 102%, Borrower shall prepay such Loans by wire transfer to the Funding Agent (for prompt remittance to the applicable Co-Agent) received not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the next succeeding Settlement Date in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid (as allocated by the applicable Co-Agent), such that after giving effect to such payment the Aggregate Principal is less than or equal to the Borrowing Limit and each Conduit Group's and each Unaffiliated Committed Lender's respective Percentage of the Aggregate Principal is less than or equal to the applicable Allocation Limit.

------

Section 1.5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Payment Requirements</u>. All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Loan Party pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the day when due in immediately available funds, and if not received before 12:00 noon (New York City time) shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day. For the avoidance of doubt, the delivery times referenced in the preceding sentence shall only apply to the payment of amounts due and payable by the Loan Parties. If such amounts are payable to a Lender they shall be paid to the Funding Account, for the account of such Lender, until otherwise notified by the Funding Agent on behalf of such Lender. The Funding Agent shall promptly remit such funds to the applicable Payment Account. The fees of the Lenders shall be invoiced and paid on a monthly basis pursuant to Article II hereof. <u>For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Administrative Agent shall calculate all amounts payable to the Lenders in connection with principal and Interest on Term SOFR Loans and (ii) each applicable Lender with a CP Rate Loan outstanding shall provide the Administrative Agent an invoice with respect to principal and Interest on any CP Rate Loans funded and outstanding by such Lender.</u> All computations of CP Costs, Interest at the LIBO Rate<u>a rate based on Adjusted Term SOFR</u>, *per annum* fees calculated as part of any CP Costs, *per annum* fees hereunder and *per annum* fees under the Fee Letter shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. All computations of Interest at the Alternate Base Rate, the Adjusted Federal Funds Rate or the Default Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days, when appropriate) for the actual number of days elapsed.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; While it is the intent of each Conduit (but not of any Committed Lender) to fund and maintain each requested Advance through the issuance of Commercial Paper, the parties acknowledge that if any Conduit is unable, or determines that it is undesirable, to issue Commercial Paper to fund all or any portion of its Loans, or is unable to repay such Commercial Paper upon the maturity thereof, such Conduit shall put all or any portion of its Loans to the Committed Lenders in its Conduit Group at any time pursuant to its applicable Liquidity Agreement to finance or refinance the necessary portion of its Loans through a Liquidity Funding to the extent available. The Liquidity Fundings may be Alternate Base Rate Loans, Adjusted Federal Funds Rate Loans or LIBO Rate<u>Term SOFR</u> Loans, or a combination thereof, selected by Borrower in accordance with Article IV and agreed to by the applicable Co-Agent. Regardless of whether a Liquidity Funding constitutes the direct funding of a Loan, an assignment of a Loan made by a Conduit or the sale of one or more participations in a Loan made by a Conduit, each Committed Lender in such Conduit's Conduit Group participating in a Liquidity Funding shall have the rights of a "Lender" hereunder with the same force and effect as if it had directly made a Loan to Borrower in the amount of its Liquidity Funding.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Nothing herein shall be deemed to commit any Conduit to make Loans.

#### ARTICLE III. <br> CONDUIT FUNDING
Section 3.1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>CP Costs</u>. Borrower shall pay CP Costs with respect to the principal balance of each Conduit's Loans from time to time outstanding.

Section 3.2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Calculation of CP Costs</u>. Not later than the 3rd Business Day immediately preceding each Monthly Reporting Date, each Conduit shall calculate the aggregate amount of CP Costs applicable to its CP Rate Loans for the Calculation Period then most recently ended and shall notify the Funding Agent, who shall promptly notify Borrower of such aggregate amount, not later than the 2<sup>nd</sup> Business Day immediately preceding such Monthly Reporting Date.

Section 3.3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>CP Costs Payments</u>. (a) With respect to CP Rate Loans made by a Pooled Fund Conduit, on each Settlement Date, Borrower shall pay to the Funding Account for further remittance by the Funding Agent to each of the Co-Agents (for the benefit of its respective Conduit) an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and unpaid CP Costs in respect of the principal associated with all such CP Rate Loans of such Conduit for the calendar month then most recently ended and (b) with respect to CP Rate Loans made by a Conduit that is not a Pooled Fund Conduit, on each Settlement Date, Borrower shall pay to the Funding Account for further remittance by the Funding Agent to each of the Co-Agents (for the benefit of its respective Conduit) an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and unpaid CP Costs in respect of the principal associated with all such CP Rate Loans of such Conduit, in each case in accordance with Article II.

------

Section 3.4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Default Rate</u>. From and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, all Loans of the Conduits shall accrue Interest at the Default Rate.

#### ARTICLE IV. <br> COMMITTED LENDER FUNDING
Section 4.1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Committed Lender Funding</u>. Prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the outstanding principal balance of each Loan made by an Unaffiliated Committed Lender and each Liquidity Funding shall accrue interest for each day during its Interest Period at either the LIBO Rate<u>Adjusted Term SOFR</u>, the Adjusted Federal Funds Rate or the Alternate Base Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Until Borrower gives notice to the Funding Agent (who shall promptly forward such notice to the applicable Co-Agent) of another Interest Rate in accordance with Section 4.4, the initial Interest Rate for any Loan transferred to the Committed Lenders in its Conduit Group by the applicable Conduit pursuant to its Liquidity Agreement shall be the Adjusted Federal Funds Rate or Alternate Base Rate (unless the Default Rate is then applicable). If the applicable Committed Lenders in a Conduit Group acquire by assignment from the applicable Conduit any Loan pursuant to a Liquidity Agreement, each Loan so assigned shall each be deemed to have an Interest Period commencing on the date of any such assignment.

Section 4.2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Interest Payments</u>. On the Settlement Date for each Loan of an Unaffiliated Committed Lender and each Liquidity Funding, Borrower shall pay to the Funding Account for further remittance by the Funding Agent to the applicable Co-Agent (for the benefit of the related Committed Lenders) an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Interest on each such Loan or Liquidity Funding in accordance with Article II.

Section 4.3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Selection and Continuation of Interest Periods</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Borrower shall from time to time request Interest Periods for the Loans of each Unaffiliated Committed Lender and the Liquidity Fundings, ***provided that*** if at any time any such Loan of such Unaffiliated Committed Lender or Liquidity Funding is outstanding, Borrower shall always request Interest Periods such that at least one Interest Period shall end on the date specified in clause (A) of the definition of Settlement Date; and ***provided further***, that the decision as to whether a Conduit will utilize Liquidity Fundings shall reside with the applicable Co-Agent and not with 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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Borrower or the applicable Committed Lender (or, if applicable, such Committed Lender's Co-Agent), upon notice to and consent by the other received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the end of an Interest Period (the "***Terminating Tranche***") for any Loan of any Unaffiliated Committed Lender or Liquidity Funding, may, effective on the last day of the Terminating Tranche: (i) divide any such Loan or Liquidity Funding into multiple Loans or Liquidity Fundings, as the case may be, (ii) combine any such Loan of such Unaffiliated Committed Lender or Liquidity Funding with one or more other Loans of such Unaffiliated Committed Lender or Liquidity Fundings, as applicable, that have a Terminating Tranche ending on the same day as such Terminating Tranche or (iii) combine any such Loan of such Unaffiliated Committed Lender or Liquidity Funding with a new Loan or Liquidity Funding, as applicable, to be made by the Committed Lenders on the day such Terminating Tranche ends.

------

Section 4.4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Committed Lender Interest Rates</u>. Subject to Section 4.5, the initial Interest Rate for any Loan of each Unaffiliated Committed Lender and each Liquidity Funding shall be the LIBO Rate<u>Adjusted Term SOFR</u> (unless the Default Rate is then applicable). If, in such case, the LIBO Rate<u>Adjusted Term SOFR</u> is not available pursuant to Section 4.5, such Committed Lender may fund such Loan at Adjusted Federal Funds Rate or Alternate Base Rate. Borrower shall by 12:00 noon (New York City time): (i) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the LIBO Rate<u>Adjusted Term SOFR</u> is being requested as the Interest Rate and (ii) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the Alternate Base Rate or the Adjusted Federal Funds Rate is being requested as a new Interest Rate, give the Funding Agent irrevocable notice of the applicable Interest Rate for the Loan or Liquidity Funding associated with such Terminating Tranche. The Funding Agent shall promptly provide such notice to the applicable Co-Agent. The initial Interest Rate for any Loan transferred by a Conduit to the Committed Lenders in its Conduit Group pursuant to its Liquidity Agreement shall be the LIBO Rate<u>Adjusted Term SOFR</u> (unless the Default Rate is then applicable). If, in such event, the LIBO Rate<u>Adjusted Term SOFR</u> is not available pursuant to Section 4.5, such Committed Lenders may fund such Loan at Adjusted Federal Funds Rate or Alternate Base Rate.

<u>Section 4.5.</u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Benchmark Replacement Setting.</u>

Section 4.5. <u>Suspension of the Adjusted Federal Funds Rate and LIBO Rate</u>

(a) If any Committed Lender notifies the Funding Agent (who shall promptly provide such notice to the Borrower) that it has determined that funding at a LIBO Rate or the Adjusted Federal Funds Rate would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of any Governmental Authority, whether or not having the force of law, or any applicable provision of the related Liquidity Agreement, or that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match-fund its Loan or Liquidity Funding at a LIBO Rate are not available or (ii) a LIBO Rate or the Adjusted Federal Funds Rate does not accurately reflect the cost of acquiring or maintaining a Loan or Liquidity Funding at such rate, then such Committed Lender may suspend the availability of such LIBO Rate or the Adjusted Federal Funds Rate, as the case may be, for such Committed Lender and require Borrower to select (by notice to the Funding Agent) a different Interest Rate for such Loan or Liquidity Funding; ***provided, however***, that in no event may Borrower select the CP Rate for any Loan of a Committed Lender or any Liquidity Funding.

------

(b) If less than all of the Committed Lenders in a Conduit Group give a notice to Funding Agent (who shall promptly provide such notice to Borrower) pursuant to Section 4.5(a), each Committed Lender in such Conduit Group which gave such a notice shall be obliged, at the request of Borrower, the applicable Conduit or the applicable Co-Agent, to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to (i) another Committed Lender in such Conduit Group, or (ii) another funding entity nominated by Borrower or, if applicable, such Committed Lender's Co-Agent that is an Eligible Assignee willing to participate in this Agreement through the Scheduled Termination Date in the place of such notifying Committed Lender; ***provided that*** (i) the notifying Committed Lender receives payment in full, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement, of all Obligations owing to it (whether due or accrued), and (ii) the replacement Committed Lender otherwise satisfies the requirements of Section 12.1(b).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in <u>Section 14.1</u>, any<u>Any</u> such amendment <u>with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event</u> will become effective <u>(x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of "Benchmark Replacement", without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of "Benchmark Replacement",</u> at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5<sup>th</sup>) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Co-Agents<u>affected Lenders</u> and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Committed Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Committed Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Committed Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of LIBOR<u>a Benchmark</u> with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this <u>Section 4.5(</u><u>c</u><u>a</u><u>)</u> will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>(b)</u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)<u>Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.</u> In connection with the <u>use, administration, adoption or</u> implementation of a Benchmark Replacement <u>(or the Term SOFR Reference Rate)</u>, 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 Transaction 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 <u>or any other Transaction Document</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>(c)</u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)<u>Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations.</u> The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Co-Agents of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the<u>Lenders of (i) the</u> implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, <u>and</u> (iii<u>ii</u>) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period<u>in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 4.5(d)</u>. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or<u>, if applicable, any Lender (or group of</u> Lenders<u>)</u> pursuant to this <u>Section 4.5</u><u>,</u> 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 <u>or any selection</u>, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto<u>to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document</u>, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this <u>Section 4.5</u>.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>(d)</u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.</u> <u>Notwithstanding anything to the contrary</u><u> </u><u>herein or in any other Transaction Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.</u>

(f<u>e</u>)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Benchmark Unavailability Period.</u> Upon the Borrower's receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, <u>with respect to a given Benchmark, (i)</u> the Borrower may revoke any <u>pending</u> request for a LIBO Rate Loan or for a<u>borrowing of,</u> conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate<u>, Term SOFR</u> Loans<u>, in each case,</u> to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing<u>borrowing</u> of or conversion to Alternate Base Rate Loans. <u>in the amount specified therein. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to any Benchmark or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>(f)</u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Benchmark Calculations.</u> <u>The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of, or any other matter related to "Alternate Base Rate", "SOFR", "Term SOFR" or the "Term SOFR Reference Rate", any component definition thereof or rates referenced in the definition thereof or any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) the then-current Benchmark or any Benchmark Replacement, (ii) any alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 4.5, whether upon the</u> <u>occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event</u> <u>and (iii) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes, including without limitation, (A) whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as the Alternate Base Rate, the existing Benchmark or any subsequent Replacement Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability (including Term SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate or any other Benchmark), and (B) the impact or effect of such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate or Conforming Changes on any other financial products or agreements in effect or offered by or to the Borrower, the Servicer, any Originator, the Parent, the Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates). The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Alternate Base Rate or any Benchmark, in each case</u> <u>pursuant to the terms of</u> <u>this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, the Parent, the Servicer, the Guarantor, any Originator, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the Alternate Base Rate or any Benchmark, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower.</u>

------

Section 4.6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Default Rate</u>. From and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, all Loans of any Unaffiliated Committed Lender and all Liquidity Fundings shall accrue Interest at the Default Rate.

<u>Section 4.7.</u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Circumstances Affecting Term SOFR. Subject to Section 4.5, in connection with any Term SOFR Loan, a request therefor, a conversion to or a continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Adjusted Term SOFR for the applicable Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan on or</u> <u>prior to the first day of such Interest Period,</u> <u>(ii) the Required Committed Lenders shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that Adjusted Term SOFR does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans during the applicable Interest Period and</u> <u>the Required Committed Lenders have</u> <u>provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make Term SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue any Loan as a Term SOFR Loan, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (ii), at the instruction of the Required Committed Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or the affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Alternate Base Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 4.8. Subject to Section 4.5, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that "Term SOFR" cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Alternate Base Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of "Alternate Base Rate" until the Administrative Agent revokes such determination.</u>

<u>Section 4.8.</u>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Indemnity. The Borrower hereby indemnifies each of the Lenders against any loss, cost or expense (including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds or from any fees payable) which may arise, be attributable to or result due to or as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to make any payment when due of any amount due hereunder in connection with a Term SOFR Loan. A certificate of such Lender setting forth the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save for manifest error. All of the obligations of the Credit Parties under this Section 4.8 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Transaction Document.</u>

Immediately after giving effect to each Advance and each settlement on any Settlement Date hereunder, the Aggregate Principal is less than or equal to the Borrowing Limit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Accounting</u>.

Section 8.1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Designation of Servicer</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by such Person (the "***Servicer***") so designated from time to time in accordance with this Section 8.1. Converting is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. After the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Committed Lenders, may at any time designate as Servicer any Person to succeed Converting or any successor Servicer, ***provided that*** the Rating Agency Condition (if applicable) is satisfied.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Converting may at any time and from time to time delegate any or all of its duties and obligations as Servicer hereunder to one or more Persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as Converting remains the Servicer hereunder: (i) Converting shall be and remain liable to the Agents and the Lenders for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder and (ii) the Agents and the Lenders shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Converting in matters relating to the discharge by the Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder.

Section 8.2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Duties of Servicer</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Servicer will instruct all Obligors to pay all Collections directly to a Lock-Box or Collection Account. The Servicer shall effect a Collection Account Agreement with each bank party to a Collection Account at any time. The Servicer shall actively, and using all commercially reasonable efforts, monitor remittances received in each Lock-Box and Collection Account to determine if such amounts constitute Collections. In the case of any remittance received in any Lock-Box or Collection Account that shall have been determined, to the satisfaction of the Servicer, not to constitute Collections or other proceeds of the Receivables or the Related Security, the Servicer shall promptly (but in no event later than the second Business Day following identification of such amount in a Lock-Box or Collection Account) remove such amount from such Lock-Box or Collection Account and provide the Administrative Agent with written notice of such removal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all amounts on deposit in any Lock-Box or Collection Account shall be deemed to be Collections, unless removed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. From and after the date the Administrative Agent delivers to any Collection Bank a Collection Notice pursuant to Section 8.3, any Agent may request that the Servicer, and the Servicer thereupon promptly shall instruct all Obligors with respect to the Receivables, to remit all payments thereon to a new depositary account specified by the Administrative Agent and, at all times thereafter, Borrower and the Servicer shall not deposit or otherwise credit, and shall not permit any other Person to deposit or otherwise credit to such new depositary account any cash or payment item other than Collections.

The Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the account of Borrower and the Lenders their respective shares of the Collections in accordance with Article II. The Servicer shall, upon the request of any Agent, segregate, in a manner acceptable to the Agents, all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections from the general funds of the Servicer or Borrower prior to the remittance thereof in accordance with Article II. If the Servicer shall be required to segregate Collections pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the Administrative Agent such allocable share of Collections of Receivables set aside for the Lenders on the first Business Day following receipt by the Servicer of such Collections, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as the Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; ***provided, however***, that such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or Defaulted Receivable or limit the rights of the Agents or the Lenders under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, from and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Administrative Agent shall have the absolute and unlimited right to direct the Servicer to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Servicer shall hold in trust for Borrower and the Lenders all Records that (i) evidence or relate to the Receivables, the related Contracts and Related Security or (ii) are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Receivables and shall, as soon as practicable upon demand of the Administrative Agent following the occurrence of an Amortization Event, deliver or make available to the Administrative Agent all such Records, at a place selected by the Administrative Agent. The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following receipt thereof turn over to Borrower any cash collections or other cash proceeds received with respect to Debt not constituting Receivables or proceeds of Collateral. The Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of the Funding Agent (on behalf of any Lender), furnish to the Funding Agent (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts set aside for the Lenders pursuant to Article II. The Funding Agent shall promptly provide such calculation to such Lender.

Section 8.3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Collection Notices</u>. The Administrative Agent is authorized at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event to date and to deliver to the Collection Banks the Collection Notices. Borrower hereby transfers to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the exclusive ownership and control of each Lock-box and Collection Account; ***provided, however***, that Borrower shall retain the right to direct the disposition of funds from each of the Collection Accounts until the Administrative Agent (in accordance with Section 9.2 hereof) delivers the applicable Collection Notice. In case any authorized signatory of Borrower whose signature appears on a Collection Account Agreement shall cease to have such authority before the delivery of such notice, such Collection Notice shall nevertheless be valid as if such authority had remained in force. Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (i) at any time after delivery of the Collection Notices, to endorse Borrower's name on checks and other instruments representing Collections, (ii) at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to enforce the Receivables, the related Contracts and the Related Security, and (iii) at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to take such action as shall be necessary or desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments constituting Collections of Receivables to come into the possession of the Administrative Agent rather than Borrower.

Section 8.4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Responsibilities of Borrower</u>. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties of their rights hereunder shall not release the Servicer, any Originator or Borrower from any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Receivables or under the related Contracts. The Lenders shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Borrower. Moreover, the ultimate responsibility for the servicing of the Receivables shall be borne by Borrower.

Section 8.5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Monthly Reports</u>. (a) The Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Funding Agent, on each Monthly Reporting Date, a Monthly Report and an electronic file of the data contained therein. The Funding Agent shall forward such Monthly Report and electronic file to the Lenders.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Any Co-Agent may request that the Funding Agent obtain a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables from the Servicer. Upon receipt of such request from the Funding Agent, the Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Funding Agent a report containing such information. The Funding Agent shall deliver such report to the relevant Co-Agent.

Section 8.6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Servicing Fee</u>. As compensation for the Servicer's servicing activities on their behalf, Borrower shall pay the Servicer the Servicing Fee, which fee shall be paid from Collections in arrears on each Settlement Date in accordance with <u>Sections 2.2</u> and <u>2.3</u> herein.

#### ARTICLE IX. <br> AMORTIZATION EVENTS

As soon as practicable, but in no event more than 30 days after any payment of such Indemnified Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority, Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Co-Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or such Co-Agent, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Transaction Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Transaction Document (except any such taxes imposed as a result of a present or former connection between the Affected Entity and the jurisdiction imposing such tax that are imposed with respect to an assignment other than a connection arising from such Affected Entity having entered into this Agreement) (hereinafter referred to as "***Other Taxes***"). The Borrower shall not be required to make payment under this Section 10.2(b)(ii) to the extent paid under Section 10.1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If any Taxes are payable or paid by any Affected Entity (including Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to any amounts payable under this Section 10.2) or are required to be withheld, deducted or paid from or in respect of any sum payable under any Transaction Document to any Affected Entity, to the extent such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower shall also pay to such Affected Entity at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that such Affected Entity reasonably determines is necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in all taxes attributable solely and directly to income derived from the transaction effectuated by the Transaction Documents, including taxes imposed on or measured by net income) that such Affected Entity would have received if such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed. The Borrower shall not be required to make payment under this Section 10.2(b)(iii) to the extent paid under Section 10.1, 10.2(b)(i) or 10.2(b)(ii).

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.4 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were 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 any Transaction Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (c).

In addition, any Affected Entity, if reasonably requested by the Borrower, Servicer, or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, Servicer, or Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower, Servicer, or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Affected Entity is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 10.2(d)(i), (ii) or (iv) below) shall not be required if in the Affected Entity's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Affected Entity to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Affected Entity. Each Affected Entity agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower, Servicer, and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; any Affected Entity that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower, Servicer, and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Affected Entity becomes party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, Servicer, and Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Affected Entity is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; any Affected Entity (and its respective Co-Agent) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower, Servicer, and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Affected Entity becomes a Affected Entity under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, Servicer, and Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower, Servicer, or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

Solely for purposes of this clause (d), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If any Affected Entity receives a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts, in each case pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly repay such refund to Borrower (to the extent of amounts that have been paid by Borrower (or the Servicer, on its behalf) under this Section with respect to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) of such Affected Entity and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that Borrower (or the Servicer, on its behalf) upon the request of such Affected Entity, agrees to return such refund (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to such Affected Entity in the event such Affected Entity or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund. Nothing in this Section shall obligate any Affected Entity to apply for any such refund.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Servicer and the Borrower acknowledge that, in connection with the funding of the Loan, or any portion thereof, by a Conduit, the Administrative Agent may be required to obtain commercial paper ratings affirmation(s). Each of the Servicer and the Borrower agrees that it will (i) cooperate with the Administrative Agent and any rating agency involved in the issuance of such rating, (ii) amend and/or supplement the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents that define, employ or relate to the term **"*Borrowing Base*", *"Eligible Receivable," "Loss Reserve," "Dilution Reserve," "Interest Reserve," "Servicing Reserve," "Servicing Fee Rate," "Required Reserve"*** or ***"Required Reserve Factor Floor"***, or any defined term utilized in the definitions of such terms, in each case, as required by such rating agency in connection with the issuance of such rating (as so amended or supplemented, the "***Revised Documents***"), and (iii) take all actions required to ensure that (A) it is in compliance with all material provisions, representation, warranties and covenants of the Revised Documents applicable to it, (B) no Unmatured Amortization Event, Amortization Event, or any event that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute a Unmatured Amortization Event or Amortization Event exists under the Revised Documents and (C) all other requirements under the Revised Documents relating to the funding of the Loan or the ownership of any Receivable have been complied with. The Borrower shall pay in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent, all costs and expenses in connection with this Section 10.2, including, without limitation, the initial fees payable to such rating agency or agencies in connection with providing such rating and all ongoing fees payable to the rating agency or agencies for their continued monitoring of such rating.

In addition, such listing shall impose no duties on the Administrative Agent other than those expressly and specifically undertaken in accordance with this Article XI.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any Committed Lender may at any time and from time to time assign to one or more Persons (each, a "***Purchasing Committed Lender***") all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an assignment agreement substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit V hereto (an "***Assignment Agreement***") executed by such Purchasing Committed Lender and such selling Committed Lender; ***provided, however***, that any assignment of a Committed Lender's rights and obligations hereunder shall include a pro rata assignment of its rights and obligations under the applicable Liquidity Agreement (if any). The consent of the applicable Conduit shall be required prior to the effectiveness of any such assignment by a Committed Lender in such Conduit's Conduit Group. Prior to the occurrence of the Amortization Date as a result of an Amortization Event, each assignee of a Committed Lender must (i) be (x) an Eligible Assignee or (y) an assignee with respect to which Borrower has provided prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (ii) agree to deliver to the applicable Co-Agent, as the case may be, promptly following any request therefor by such Person, an enforceability opinion in form and substance satisfactory to such Person. Upon delivery of an executed Assignment Agreement to the applicable Co-Agent, such selling Committed Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder and, if applicable, under its Liquidity Agreement to the extent of such assignment. Thereafter the Purchasing Committed Lender shall for all purposes be a Committed Lender party to this Agreement and, if applicable, its Conduit Group's Liquidity Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Committed Lender hereunder and thereunder to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto and thereto and no further consent or action by Borrower, the Lenders or the Agents shall be required.

No Commitment of any Committed Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 12.1(d), performance by the Borrower of its obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified, as a result of the operation of this Section 12.1(d).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To the extent that any Committed Lender is a Defaulting Lender with respect to an Advance, the Borrower may deliver a notice to the Funding Agent specifying the date of such Advance, the identity of the Defaulting Lender and the portion of such Advance that the Defaulting Lender failed to fund, which notice shall be deemed to be an additional Borrowing Notice in respect of such unfunded portion of such Advance, and each Committed Lender (or its related Conduit, if applicable, and acting in its sole discretion) shall, to the extent of its remaining unfunded Commitment and subject to the continued fulfillment of all applicable conditions precedent set forth herein with respect to such Advance, fund its Percentage (recomputed by excluding the Commitment of Defaulting Lenders from the Aggregate Commitment) of such unfunded portion of such Advance not later than 2:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following the date of such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Until the Defaulting Lender Excess of a Defaulting Lender has been reduced to zero, any payment of the principal of any Loan to a Defaulting Lender shall, unless the Required Committed Lenders agree otherwise, be applied first (1) ratably, to the reduction of the Loans funding any defaulted portion of Advances pursuant to Section 12.1(d)(ii) and then (2) ratably to reduce the Loans of each of the Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with the principal amount (if any) thereof. Subject to the preceding sentence, any amount paid by or on behalf of the Borrower for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be applied to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority until such Defaulting Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender as provided below: <u>first</u>, to the funding of any portion of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; <u>second</u>, held in a segregated subaccount of the Collection Account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of Advances under this Agreement; and <u>third</u>, after the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations, to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such complete or partial replacement or to assist in finding an assignee. In connection with any such complete or partial assignment, such Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to effect such assignment, including an appropriate Assignment Agreement. No such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, (A) to the extent that the assignee is assuming all of the interests, rights and obligations of the Defaulting Lender, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable Percentage of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Borrower or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) the Loans made by such Defaulting Lender or members of such Defaulting Lender Group, as applicable, (B) to the extent that the assignee is assuming all of the interests, rights and obligations of the Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender or members of such Defaulting Lender Group, as applicable, shall have received payment of an amount equal to all of its Loans outstanding, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees (subject to <u>Section 12.1(d)(iv)</u>) and all other amounts, including any Breakage Costs, payable to it and its Affected Parties hereunder and the other Transaction Documents through (but excluding) the date of such assignment from the assignee or the Borrower, and (C) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law. 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.

If (i) the Funding Agent had been notified by the Borrower or the affected Committed Lender that a Committed Lender has failed to timely fund a Loan, (ii) if a Responsible Officer of the Funding Agent has actual knowledge or has written notice that such Committed Lender is the subject of an Event of Bankruptcy or has publicly announced that it does not intend to comply with its funding obligations under this Agreement or (iii) the Funding Agent had been notified by the Administrative Agent or the affected Committed Lender that a Committed Lender has failed timely to deliver the written confirmation contemplated by clause (a)(iii) of the definition of "Defaulting Lender", the Funding Agent shall promptly provide notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Co-Agents of such occurrence.

Commencing on the related Prepayment Date, any such Prepaid Lender's Commitment shall terminate and such Prepaid Lender shall either (i) assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to an Eligible Assignee willing to participate in this Agreement through the Scheduled Termination Date in the place of such Prepaid Lender or (ii) be entitled to payment of its Percentage (or Pro Rata Share of its Conduit Group's Percentage, as applicable) of the Borrower's Obligations in accordance with Section 2.2 or Section 2.3 as applicable. In the event that any such Prepaid Lender assigns its rights and obligations pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, such Prepaid Lender shall be entitled to receive payment in full, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement, of an amount equal to its Percentage (or Pro Rata Share of its Conduit Group's Percentage, as applicable) of the Borrower's Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, on and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, amounts owed to any such Prepaid Lender hereunder shall be applied ratably with amounts owed to Lenders that are not Prepaid Lenders in accordance with Section 2.3.

Section 12.2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Participations</u>. Any Committed Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business at any time sell to one or more Persons (each, a "***Participant***") participating interests in its Pro Rata Share of its Conduit Group's Percentage of Aggregate Commitment, its Loans, its Liquidity Commitment (if applicable) or any other interest of such Committed Lender hereunder or, if applicable, under its Liquidity Agreement. Notwithstanding any such sale by a Committed Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Committed Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and, if applicable, such Liquidity Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Committed Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder and, if applicable, under its Liquidity Agreement, and the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agents shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Committed Lender in connection with such Committed Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and, if applicable, its Liquidity Agreement. Each Committed Lender agrees that any agreement between such Committed Lender and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict such Committed Lender's right to agree to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to this Agreement, except for any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification described in Section 14.1(b)(i).

Section 12.3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Register</u>. The Administrative Agent (acting solely for this purpose as agent for the Borrower) shall maintain at its office referred to in Section 14.2 a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and register (the "***Register***") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Pro Rata Share of, outstanding principal amount of all Advances owing to and Interest of, each Lender from time to time, which Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No assignment under this Article XII shall be effective until the entries described in the preceding sentence have been made in the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Servicer, the Lenders, the Co-Agents, the Funding Agent and the Administrative Agent may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.

Section 12.4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Participant Register</u>. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of and stated interest on each Participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Transaction Documents (the "***Participant Register***"); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's<u>Participant's</u> interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Transaction Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

------

Section 12.5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Federal Reserve</u>. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including, without limitation, any Loan and any rights to payment of principal or interest thereon) under this Agreement (i) to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank, or (ii) to a collateral agent or a security trustee in connection with the funding by such Lender of the Loan, without notice to or consent of Borrower, Servicer or any Agent; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.

#### ARTICLE XIII. <br> SECURITY INTEREST
Section 13.1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Grant of Security Interest</u>. To secure the due and punctual payment of the Obligations, whether now or hereafter existing, due or to become due, direct or indirect, or absolute or contingent, including, without limitation, all Indemnified Amounts, in each case pro rata according to the respective amounts thereof, Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in, all of Borrower's right, title and interest, whether now owned and existing or hereafter arising in and to all of the Receivables, the Related Security, the Collections, any loans or advances made by Borrower to any Person and notes evidencing such loans or advances, and all proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, the "***Collateral***").

Each Loan Party irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, and appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact, to act on behalf of such Loan Party (i) to execute on behalf of Borrower as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Administrative Agent's sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interest of the Lenders in the Receivables and (ii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Receivables as a financing statement in such offices as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent's security interest in the Collateral, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. This appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

Forward Looking Statements: This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including but not limited to the statements on the slides entitled "Executing Our Strategy", "Adjusted Free Cash Flow", "Q2 FY23 Guidance", "Additional Guidance", and "Estimated Key Commodity Q2 FY23 Consumption Volumes" that give guidance or estimates for future periods. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, beliefs, plans or forecasts and are typically identified by words or phrases such as "may," "will," "could," "should," "would," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe," "target," "prospects," "potential" and "forecast," and other words, terms and phrases of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements involve estimates, expectations, projections, goals, forecasts, assumptions, risks and uncertainties. A forward-looking statement is not a guarantee of future performance, and actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statement. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, such as developments related to pricing cycles and volumes; economic, competitive and market conditions generally, including macroeconomic uncertainty, customer inventory rebalancing, the impact of inflation and increases in energy, raw materials, shipping, labor and capital equipment costs; reduced supply of raw materials, energy and transportation, including from supply chain disruptions and labor shortages; intense competition; results and impacts of acquisitions, including operational and financial effects from the acquisition of Gondi, S.A. de C.V. ("Grupo Gondi"), and divestitures as well as risks related to our joint ventures; business disruptions, including from public health crises such as a resurgence of COVID, the occurrence of severe weather or a natural disaster or other unanticipated problems, such as labor difficulties, equipment failure or unscheduled maintenance and repair; failure to respond to changing customer preferences; the amount and timing of capital expenditures, including installation costs, project development and implementation costs, and costs related to resolving disputes with third parties with which we work to manage and implement capital projects; risks related to international sales and operations; the production of faulty or contaminated products; the loss of certain customers; adverse legal, reputational, operational and financial effects resulting from cyber incidents and the effectiveness of business continuity plans during a ransomware or other cyber incident; work stoppages and other labor relations difficulties; inability to attract, motivate, train and retain qualified personnel; risks associated with sustainability and climate change, including our ability to achieve our environmental, social and governance targets and goals on announced timelines or at all; our inability to successfully identify and make performance and productivity improvements and risks associated with completing strategic projects on the anticipated timelines and realizing anticipated financial or operational improvements on announced timelines or at all, including with respect to our business systems transformation; risks related to our indebtedness; the scope, costs, timing and impact of any restructuring of our operations and corporate and tax structure; our desire or ability to repurchase company stock; and the scope, timing and outcome of any litigation, claims or other proceedings or dispute resolutions and the impact of any such litigation (including with respect to the Brazil tax liability matter). Such risks and other factors that may impact forward-looking statements are discussed in Item 1A "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, as well as the other risks discussed in our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The information contained herein speaks as of the date hereof, and the Company does not have or undertake any obligation to update or revise its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law. Non-GAAP Financial Measures: We report our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). However, management believes certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users with additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing our ongoing performance. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating our performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from similarly captioned measures presented by other companies. For additional information, see the Appendix. In addition, as explained in the Appendix, we are not providing a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable effort.

Adjusted Earnings Per Diluted Share We use the non-GAAP financial measure "Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share," also referred to as "Adjusted Earnings per Share" or "Adjusted EPS", because we believe this measure provides our management, board of directors, investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others with useful information to evaluate our performance since it excludes restructuring and other costs, business systems transformation costs, and other specific items that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating results. Our management and board of directors use this information to evaluate our performance relative to other periods. We believe the most directly comparable GAAP measure is Earnings per diluted share. Adjusted Operating Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow We use the non-GAAP financial measures "Adjusted Operating Cash Flow" and "Adjusted Free Cash Flow" because we believe these measures provide our management, board of directors, investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others with useful information to evaluate our performance relative to other periods because they exclude certain cash restructuring and other costs, net of tax and business systems transformation costs, net of tax that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing operating results. We believe Adjusted Free Cash Flow provides greater comparability across periods by excluding capital expenditures. We believe the most directly comparable GAAP measure is net cash provided by operating activities. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margins We use the non-GAAP financial measures "Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA" and "Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margins", along with other factors, to evaluate our performance against our peers. We believe that our management, board of directors, investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others use these measures to evaluate our performance relative to our peers. Management believes that the most directly comparable GAAP measure to "Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA" (formerly referred to as Adjusted Segment EBITDA) is "Net income attributable to common stockholders". It can also be derived by adding together each segment's "Adjusted EBITDA" plus "Non-allocated expenses". "Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margins" is calculated as "Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA" divided by Net Sales. Corrugated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Excluding Trade-Sales "Corrugated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Excluding Trade Sales" is computed by dividing "Corrugated Adjusted EBITDA" by corrugated segment sales, excluding trade-sales, which is reported segment sales less trade-sales. Leverage Ratio, Net Leverage Ratio, Total Funded Debt and Adjusted Total Funded Debt We use the non-GAAP financial measures "Leverage Ratio" and "Net Leverage Ratio" as measurements of our operating performance and to compare to our publicly disclosed target leverage ratio. We believe our management, board of directors, investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others use each measure to evaluate our available borrowing capacity – in the case of "Net Leverage Ratio", adjusted for cash and cash equivalents. We define Leverage Ratio as our Total Funded Debt divided by our credit agreement EBITDA, each of which term is defined in our revolving credit agreement, dated July 7, 2022. As of December 31, 2022, our leverage ratio was 2.47 times. While the Leverage Ratio under our credit agreement determines the credit spread on our debt, we are not subject to a leverage ratio cap. Our credit agreement is subject to a Debt to Capitalization Ratio, as defined therein. We define "Adjusted Total Funded Debt" as our Total Funded Debt less cash and cash equivalents. Net Leverage Ratio represents Adjusted Total Funded Debt divided by our credit agreement EBITDA. As of December 31, 2022, our Net Leverage Ratio was 2.35 times. Forward-looking Guidance We are not providing a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable effort. These items may include, but are not limited to, merger and acquisition-related expenses, restructuring expenses, asset impairments, litigation settlements, changes to contingent consideration and certain other gains or losses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period. In addition, we have not quantified future amounts to develop our Net Leverage Ratio target but have stated our commitment to an investment grade credit profile in order to generally maintain the target. This target does not reflect Company guidance. Non-GAAP Financial Measures 13
