Exhibit 4.5

 

FTAC OLYMPUS ACQUISITION CORP.

 

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

The following summary of the material
terms of the securities of FTAC Olympus Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“we,” “us,”
“our” or the “Company”), is not intended to be a complete summary of the rights and preferences of such
securities and is subject to and qualified by reference to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and
the warrant agreement, dated August 25, 2020, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Warrant
Agreement”), in each case incorporated by reference as exhibits to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2020 (the “Report”), and applicable Cayman Islands law. We urge you to read our amended and
restated memorandum and articles of association and the Warrant Agreement in their entirety for a complete description of the rights
and preferences of our securities.

 

We are a Cayman Islands exempted company
(company number 363173) and our affairs are governed by our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the Companies
Law and common law of the Cayman Islands. Pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, we are authorized
to issue 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value each, 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, $0.0001 par
value and 5,000,000 undesignated preference shares, $0.0001 par value each.

 

Units

 

Each unit consists of one Class A ordinary
share and one-third of one warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share
at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Warrants must be exercised for one whole Class A ordinary share. The
ordinary shares and warrants comprising the units begin separate trading on October 16, 2020.

 

Placement Units

 

The placement units (including the placement
shares, the placement warrants and Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants) will not be transferable
or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination (subject to limited exceptions) and the
placement warrants included therein will not be redeemable by us (subject to limited exceptions) so long as they are held by our
sponsor or its permitted transferees. Holders of our placement units are entitled to certain registration rights. If we do not
consummate an initial business combination by August 28, 2022, the proceeds from the sale of the private placement held in the
trust account will be used to fund the redemption of our public shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the
placement units (and the underlying securities) will expire worthless. Further, if we seek shareholder approval, we will complete
our initial business combination only if we receive an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, which requires the affirmative
vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the company. In such case, our initial holders,
sponsor and each member of our management team have agreed to vote their founder shares, placement shares and any public shares
purchased during or after the initial public offering in favor of our initial business combination. Otherwise, the placement units
are identical to the units sold in the initial public offering.

 

In order to fund working capital deficiencies
or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, our sponsor or an affiliate of our sponsor
or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. Up to $1,500,000 of such
loans may be convertible into units at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender at the time of the business combination.
The units would be identical to the placement units sold in the private placement.

 

Ordinary Shares

 

There are currently 97,055,470 ordinary shares
issued and outstanding, including:

 

		●	75,474,376 Class A ordinary shares underlying the
units sold in the initial public offering;

 

		●	2,170,000 Class A ordinary shares underlying the placement
units sold in the private placement; and

 

		●	19,411,094 Class B ordinary shares held by our initial
holders.

 

     

     

    

 

Class A ordinary shareholders and Class B
ordinary shareholders of record are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders and
vote together as a single class, except as required by law; provided, that holders of our Class B ordinary shares have the
right to appoint all of our directors prior to our initial business combination and holders of our Class A ordinary shares
will not be entitled to vote on the appointment of directors during such time. These provisions of our amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association may only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least 90% of our ordinary shares voting in
a general meeting. Unless specified in the Companies Law, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association or applicable
stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of our ordinary shares that are voted is required to approve any such
matter voted on by our shareholders (other than the appointment of directors), and the affirmative vote of a majority of our founder
shares is required to approve the appointment of directors. Approval of certain actions requires a special resolution under Cayman
Islands law and pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association; such actions include amending our
amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and approving a statutory merger or consolidation with another company.
Directors are appointed for a term of two years. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the appointment of directors, with
the result that the holders of more than 50% of the founder shares voted for the appointment of directors can appoint all of the
directors. Our shareholders are entitled to receive ratable dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of
funds legally available therefor.

 

Because our amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association authorize the issuance of up to 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, if we were to enter into
a business combination, we may (depending on the terms of such a business combination) be required to increase the number of ordinary
shares which we are authorized to issue at the same time as our shareholders vote on the business combination to the extent we
seek shareholder approval in connection with our initial business combination.

 

In accordance with NASDAQ corporate governance
requirements, we are not required to hold an annual general meeting until no later than one year after our first fiscal year end
following our listing on NASDAQ. There is no requirement under the Companies Law for us to hold annual or general meetings or appoint
directors. We may not hold an annual general meeting prior to the consummation of our initial business combination.

 

We will provide our Class A public shareholders
with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of our initial business combination
at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account as of two business
days prior to the consummation of our initial business combination, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable)
divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to the limitations described herein. The amount in the trust account
is approximately $10.00 per public share. The per-share amount we will distribute to investors who properly redeem their shares
will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions we will pay to the underwriters. Our initial holders, sponsor, officers
and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights
with respect to their founder shares and public shares in connection with the completion of our initial business combination.

 

Unlike many blank check companies that hold
shareholder votes and conduct proxy solicitations in conjunction with their initial business combinations and provide for related
redemptions of public shares for cash upon completion of such initial business combinations even when a vote is not required by
law, if a shareholder vote is not required by law and we do not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons,
we will, pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender
offer rules of the SEC, and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing our initial business combination. Our
amended and restated memorandum and articles of association require these tender offer documents to contain substantially the same
financial and other information about the initial business combination and the redemption rights as is required under the SEC’s
proxy rules. If, however, a shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or we decide to obtain shareholder approval
for business or other legal reasons, we will, like many blank check companies, offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy
solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If we seek shareholder approval, we will complete
our initial business combination only if we receive an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, which requires the affirmative
vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the company. However, the participation of our
sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates in privately-negotiated transactions, if any, could result in the approval
of our initial business combination even if a majority of our public shareholders vote, or indicate their intention to vote, against
such business combination. For purposes of seeking approval of the majority of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares, non-votes will
have no effect on the approval of our initial business combination once a quorum is obtained. We intend to give approximately 30 days
(but not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days) prior written notice of any such meeting, if required, at which a vote
shall be taken to approve our initial business combination.

 

    2

     

    

 

If we seek shareholder approval of our initial
business combination and we do not conduct redemptions in connection with our initial business combination pursuant to the tender
offer rules, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that a public shareholder, together with any
affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as
defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate
of 15% of the ordinary shares sold in the initial public offering, which we refer to as the “Excess Shares.” However,
we would not be restricting our shareholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including Excess Shares) for or against
our initial business combination. Our shareholders’ inability to redeem the Excess Shares will reduce their influence over
our ability to complete our initial business combination, and such shareholders could suffer a material loss in their investment
if they sell such Excess Shares on the open market. Additionally, such shareholders will not receive redemption distributions with
respect to the Excess Shares if we complete the business combination. And, as a result, such shareholders will continue to hold
that number of shares exceeding 15% and, in order to dispose such shares would be required to sell their shares in open market
transactions, potentially at a loss.

 

If we seek shareholder approval in connection
with our initial business combination, our initial holders, sponsor, officers and directors have agreed (and their permitted transferees
will agree), pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with us, to vote any founder shares held by them and any
public shares purchased during or after the initial public offering in favor of our initial business combination. Additionally,
each public shareholder may elect to redeem their public shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

 

Pursuant to our amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association, if we are unable to complete our initial business combination by August 28, 2022, we will (i) cease
all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but no more than ten business
days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in
cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes
payable and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding public shares,
which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further
liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such
redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in
each case to our obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable
law. Our initial holders, sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us, pursuant to which they
have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to their founder shares if we
fail to complete our initial business combination by August 28, 2022. However, if our initial holders, sponsor, officers or directors
acquire public shares after the initial public offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account
with respect to such public shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time period.

 

In the event of a liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of the company after a business combination, our shareholders are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining
available for distribution to them after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of shares, if any, having
preference over the ordinary shares. Our shareholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no sinking fund
provisions applicable to the ordinary shares, except that we will provide our shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their
public shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest
(which interest shall be net of taxes payable) upon the completion of our initial business combination, subject to the limitations
described herein.

Founder Shares

 

The founder shares are identical to the ordinary
shares included in the units sold in the initial public offering, and holders of founder shares have the same shareholder rights
as public shareholders, except that (i) holders of the founder shares have the right to vote on the appointment of directors
prior to our initial business combination, (ii) the founder shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described
in more detail below, and (iii) our initial holders, sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement
with us, pursuant to which they have agreed (A) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and
public shares in connection with the completion of our initial business combination and (B) to waive their rights to liquidating
distributions from the trust account with respect to their founder shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination
by August 28, 2022, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any public
shares they hold if we fail to complete our initial business combination within such time period and (iv) the founder shares
will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of our initial business combination, on a one-for-one basis,
subject to adjustment pursuant to certain anti-dilution rights, as described herein and in our amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association. If we submit our initial business combination to our public shareholders for a vote, our sponsor,
officers and directors have agreed (and their permitted transferees will agree), pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered
into with us, to vote any founder shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the initial public offering
in favor of our initial business combination.

 

The Class B ordinary shares will automatically
convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of our initial business combination on a one-for-one basis, subject
to adjustment for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like, and subject to further
adjustment as provided herein and in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. In the case that additional
Class A ordinary shares, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts sold in the
initial public offering and related to the closing of the business combination, the ratio at which Class B ordinary shares
shall convert into Class A ordinary shares will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding
Class B ordinary shares agree to waive such anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance)
so that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B ordinary shares will equal, in
the aggregate, 20% of the sum of all ordinary shares outstanding upon completion of the initial public offering and the private
placement plus all Class A ordinary shares and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with the
business combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial
business combination, and any private placement-equivalent shares and warrants underlying units issued to our sponsor or its
affiliates upon conversion of loans made to us). Holders of founder shares may also elect to convert their Class B ordinary
shares into an equal number of Class A ordinary shares, subject to adjustment as provided above, at any time. The term “equity-linked securities”
refers to any debt or equity securities that are convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A ordinary shares
issued in a financing transaction in connection with our initial business combination, including but not limited to a private placement
of equity or debt. Securities could be “deemed issued” for purposes of the conversion adjustment if such shares are
issuable upon the conversion or exercise of convertible securities, warrants or similar securities.

 

With certain limited exceptions, the founder
shares are not transferable, assignable or salable (except to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated
with our sponsor, each of whom will be subject to the same transfer restrictions) until (a) with respect to 25% of such shares,
until consummation of our initial business combination, (b) with respect to 25% of such shares, when the closing price of
our Class A ordinary shares (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations
and the like) exceeds $12.00 for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period following the consummation of our initial
business combination, (c) with respect to 25% of such shares, when the closing price of our Class A ordinary shares (as
adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) exceeds $13.50 for any
20 trading days within a 30-trading day period following the consummation of our initial business combination, and (d) with
respect to 25% of such shares, when the closing price of our Class A ordinary shares (as adjusted for share sub-divisions,
share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) exceeds $17.00 for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day
period following the consummation of our initial business combination or earlier, in any case, if, following a business combination,
we complete a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of our shareholders
having the right to exchange their ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.

Register of Members

 

Under Cayman Islands law, we must keep a
register of members and there shall be entered therein:

 

		●	the names and addresses of the members, a statement of
the shares held by each member, and of the amount paid or agreed to be considered as paid, on the shares of each member and the
voting rights of the shares of each member;

 

		●	the date on which the name of any person was entered on
the register as a member; and

 

		●	the date on which any person ceased to be a member.

 

Under Cayman Islands law, the register of
members of our company is prima facie evidence of the matters set out therein (i.e. the register of members will raise a presumption
of fact on the matters referred to above unless rebutted) and a member registered in the register of members shall be deemed as
a matter of Cayman Islands law to have legal title to the shares as set against its name in the register of members. However, there
are certain limited circumstances where an application may be made to a Cayman Islands court for a determination on whether the
register of members reflects the correct legal position. Further, the Cayman Islands court has the power to order that the register
of members maintained by a company should be rectified where it considers that the register of members does not reflect the correct
legal position. If an application for an order for rectification of the register of members were made in respect of our ordinary
shares, then the validity of such shares may be subject to re-examination by a Cayman Islands court.

 

Preference Shares

 

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles
of association provide that preference shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our Board of Directors will
be authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other
special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. Our Board
of Directors will be able to, without shareholder approval, issue preference shares with voting and other rights that could adversely
affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the ordinary shares and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability
of our Board of Directors to issue preference shares without shareholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring
or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of existing management. We have no preference shares outstanding at the
date hereof. Although we do not currently intend to issue any preference shares, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in
the future.

 

Redeemable Warrants

 

Public Shareholders’ Warrants

 

Each whole warrant entitles the registered
holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at
any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of the initial public offering or 30 days after the completion
of our initial business combination. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of our initial business combination,
at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

 

We will not be obligated to deliver any Class A
ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration
statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and
a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration.
No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and we will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking
to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities
laws of the state of the exercising holder, or an exemption is available. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately
preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such
warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for
the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely
for the Class A ordinary share underlying such unit.

 

    5

     

    

 

We have agreed that as soon as practicable,
but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of our initial business combination, we will use our best efforts
to file, and within 60 business days following our initial business combination to have declared effective, a registration statement
covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants. We will use our best efforts to cause the same
to become effective and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto,
until the expiration of the warrants in accordance with the provisions of the warrant agreement. No warrants will be exercisable
for cash unless we have an effective and current registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon
exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating to such Class A ordinary shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within
a specified period following the consummation of our initial business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there
is an effective registration statement and during any period when we shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement,
exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided
that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise
their warrants on a cashless basis.

 

Redemption of warrants for cash when the
price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00.    Once the warrants become exercisable,
we may call the warrants for redemption (except as described herein with respect to the placement warrants):

 

		●	in whole and not in part;

 

		●	at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

 

		●	upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice
of redemption to each warrant holder; and

 

		●	if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A
ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations,
recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior
to the date on which notice of the redemption is sent to the warrant holders.

 

If and when the warrants become redeemable
by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under
all applicable state securities laws.

 

We have established the last of the redemption
criterion discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant
exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption of the warrants, each warrant holder
will be entitled to exercise his, her or its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the Class A
ordinary shares may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations,
reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) as well as the $11.50 (for whole shares) warrant exercise price after the redemption
notice is issued.

 

Redemption of warrants for Class A
ordinary shares when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00.    Commencing
ninety days after the warrants become exercisable, we may redeem the outstanding warrants:

 

		●	in whole and not in part;

 

		●	at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’
prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless
basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to the table below, based on the redemption
date and the “fair market value” of our Class A ordinary shares (as defined below) except as otherwise described
below;

 

		●	if, and only if, the closing price of our Class A
ordinary shares equals or exceeds $10.00 per public share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, reorganizations,
reclassifications, recapitalizations and the like) on the trading day before we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders;

 

		●	if, and only if, the placement warrants are also concurrently
called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding public warrants, as described above; and

 

		●	if, and only if, there is an effective registration statement
covering the issuance of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating
thereto available throughout the 30-day period after written notice of redemption is sent.

 

    6

     

    

 

The numbers in the table below represent
the number of Class A ordinary shares that a warrant holder will receive upon exercise in connection with a redemption by
us pursuant to this redemption feature, based on the “fair market value” of our Class A ordinary shares on the
corresponding redemption date (assuming holders elect to exercise their warrants and such warrants are not redeemed for $0.10 per
warrant), determined based on volume weighted average price of our Class A ordinary shares as reported during the 10 trading
days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants, and
the number of months that the corresponding redemption date precedes the expiration date of the warrants, each as set forth in
the table below.

 

The share prices set forth in the column
headings of the table below will be adjusted as of any date on which the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant or
the exercise price of a warrant is adjusted as set forth under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments”
below. If the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant is adjusted, the adjusted share prices in the column headings
will equal the share prices immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
of shares deliverable upon exercise of a warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the number
of shares deliverable upon exercise of a warrant as so adjusted. The number of shares in the table below shall be adjusted in the
same manner and at the same time as the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant. If the exercise price of a warrant
is adjusted, (a) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the fifth paragraph under the heading “— Anti-dilution Adjustments”
below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted share price multiplied by a fraction, the numerator
of which is the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price as set forth under the heading “ — Anti-dilution Adjustments”
and the denominator of which is $10.00 and (b) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the second paragraph under the heading
“— Anti-dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted
share price less the decrease in the exercise price of a warrant pursuant to such exercise price adjustment.

The exact fair market value and redemption
date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case, if the fair market value is between two values in the table or the
redemption date is between two redemption dates in the table, the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued for each
warrant exercised will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of shares set forth for the higher
and lower fair market values and the earlier and later redemption dates, as applicable, based on a 365 or 366-day year, as
applicable. For example, if the volume weighted average price of our Class A ordinary shares during the 10 trading days immediately
following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the warrants is $11.00 per share, and at such time
there are 57 months until the expiration of the warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature,
exercise their warrants for 0.277 Class A ordinary shares for each whole warrant. For an example where the exact fair market
value and redemption date are not as set forth in the table above, if the volume weighted average price of our Class A ordinary
shares during the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the
warrants is $13.50 per share, and at such time there are 38 months until the expiration of the warrants, holders may choose
to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their warrants for 0.298 Class A ordinary shares for each whole warrant.
In no event will the warrants be exercisable on a cashless basis in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361
Class A ordinary shares per warrant (subject to adjustment). Finally, as reflected in the table above, if the warrants are
out of the money and about to expire, they cannot be exercised on a cashless basis in connection with a redemption by us pursuant
to this redemption feature, since they will not be exercisable for any Class A ordinary shares.

 

This redemption feature differs from the
typical warrant redemption features used in many other blank check offerings, which typically only provide for a redemption of
warrants for cash (other than the private placement warrants) when the trading price for the Class A ordinary shares exceeds
$18.00 per share for a specified period of time. This redemption feature is structured to allow for all of the outstanding warrants
to be redeemed when the Class A ordinary shares are trading at or above $10.00 per public share, which may be at a time when
the trading price of our Class A ordinary shares is below the exercise price of the warrants. We have established this redemption
feature to provide us with the flexibility to redeem the warrants without the warrants having to reach the $18.00 per share threshold
set forth above under “— Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00.”
Holders choosing to exercise their warrants in connection with a redemption pursuant to this feature will, in effect, receive a
number of shares for their warrants based on an option pricing model with a fixed volatility input. This redemption right provides
us with an additional mechanism by which to redeem all of the outstanding warrants, and therefore have certainty as to our capital
structure as the warrants would no longer be outstanding and would have been exercised or redeemed. We will be required to pay
the applicable redemption price to warrant holders if we choose to exercise this redemption right and it will allow us to quickly
proceed with a redemption of the warrants if we determine it is in our best interest to do so. As such, we would redeem the warrants
in this manner when we believe it is in our best interest to update our capital structure to remove the warrants and pay the redemption
price to the warrant holders.

 

As stated above, we can redeem the warrants
when the Class A ordinary shares are trading at a price starting at $10.00, which is below the exercise price of $11.50, because
it will provide certainty with respect to our capital structure and cash position while providing warrant holders with the opportunity
to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis for the applicable number of shares. If we choose to redeem the warrants when the
Class A ordinary shares are trading at a price below the exercise price of the warrants, this could result in the warrant
holders receiving fewer Class A ordinary shares than they would have received if they had chosen to wait to exercise their
warrants for Class A ordinary shares if and when such Class A ordinary shares were trading at a price higher than the
exercise price of $11.50.

 

No fractional Class A ordinary shares
will be issued upon exercise. If, upon exercise, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will
round down to the nearest whole number of the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued to the holder. If, at the time
of redemption, the warrants are exercisable for a security other than the Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the warrant
agreement (for instance, if we are not the surviving company in our initial business combination), the warrants may be exercised
for such security. At such time as the warrants become exercisable for a security other than the Class A ordinary shares,
the Company (or surviving company) will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register under the Securities Act the security
issuable upon the exercise of the warrants.

Redemption procedures and cashless exercise.    If
we call the warrants for redemption as described under “— Redemption of warrants for cash when the price per Class A
ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00,” our management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise
his, her or its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis” beginning on the third trading day prior to the date on which
notice of the redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants
on a “cashless basis,” our management will consider, among other factors, our cash position, the number of warrants
that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on our shareholders of issuing the maximum number of Class A ordinary shares
issuable upon the exercise of our warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would pay
the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the lesser of (A) the
quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied
by the excess of the “fair market value” (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair
market value and (B) 0.365. The “fair market value” will mean the average closing price of the Class A ordinary
shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the
holders of warrants. If our management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary
to calculate the number of Class A ordinary shares to be received upon exercise of the warrants, including the “fair
market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares to be issued and
thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption. We believe this feature is an attractive option to us if we do not
need the cash from the exercise of the warrants after our initial business combination. If we call our warrants for redemption
and our management team does not take advantage of this option, our sponsor and its permitted transferees would still be entitled
to exercise their placement warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other warrant
holders would have been required to use had all warrant holders been required to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, as
described in more detail below.

 

A holder of a warrant may notify us in writing
in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the
extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s
actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (as specified by the holder) of the Class A ordinary shares
issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

 

Anti-dilution Adjustments.    If
the number of issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares is increased by a capitalization payable in Class A ordinary
shares, or by a sub-division of Class A ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such capitalization,
sub-division or similar event, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased
in proportion to such increase in the issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares. A rights offering to holders of Class A
ordinary shares entitling holders to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed
a capitalization of a number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the product of (i) the number of Class A ordinary
shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are
convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares) multiplied by (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the
price per Class A ordinary share paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the fair market value. For these purposes
(i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares, in determining
the price payable for Class A ordinary shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights,
as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted
average price of Class A ordinary shares as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior
to the first date on which the Class A ordinary shares trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular
way, without the right to receive such rights.

In addition, if we, at any time while the
warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders
of Class A ordinary shares on account of such Class A ordinary shares (or other ordinary shares into which the warrants
are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) certain ordinary cash dividends/any cash dividends or cash distributions
which, when combined on a per share basis with all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Class A ordinary
shares during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution does not exceed $0.50
(as adjusted to appropriately reflect any other adjustments and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in
an adjustment to the exercise price or to the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant) but
only with respect to the amount of the aggregate cash dividends or cash distributions equal to or less than $0.50 per share, (c) to
satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Class A ordinary shares in connection with a proposed initial business combination,
(d) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Class A ordinary shares in connection with a shareholder vote
to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to
redeem 100% of our Class A ordinary shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by August 28, 2022, or (e) in
connection with the redemption of our public shares upon our failure to complete our initial business combination, then the warrant
exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the
fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each Class A ordinary share in respect of such event.

 

If the number of issued and outstanding Class A
ordinary shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share sub-divisions or reclassification of Class A
ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share sub-divisions,
reclassification or similar event, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased
in proportion to such decrease in issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares.

 

Whenever the number of Class A ordinary
shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted
by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will
be the number of Class A ordinary shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment,
and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of Class A ordinary shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.

 

In case of any reclassification or reorganization
of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such
Class A ordinary shares), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than
a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization
of our outstanding Class A ordinary shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of
the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the
holders of the warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions
specified in the warrants and in lieu of the Class A ordinary shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon
the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of Class A ordinary shares or other securities or property
(including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following
any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately
prior to such event. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of Class A ordinary shares in such a
transaction is payable in the form of Class A ordinary shares in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national
securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately
following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public
disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes value
(as defined in the warrant agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value
to holders of the warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the warrants pursuant to which
the holders of the warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the warrants.

 

The warrants were issued in registered form
under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement
provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective
provision or correct any mistake, but requires the approval by the holders of at least 65% of the then outstanding public warrants
to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders. You should review a copy of the warrant agreement
for a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants.

In addition, if (x) we issue additional
Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of our
initial business combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per ordinary share (with such issue
price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by us and in the case of any such issuance to our sponsors or their
affiliates, without taking into account any founder shares held by our initial shareholders or such affiliates, as applicable,
prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent
more than 50% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of our initial business combination
on the date of the completion of our initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume-weighted average
trading price of our Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day
on which we complete our initial business combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the
exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and
the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 and $18.00 per share redemption trigger prices described adjacent to “— Redemption
of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00” and “— Redemption of warrants
when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00” will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal
to 100% and 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, respectively.

 

The warrants may be exercised upon surrender
of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the
reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price
(or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised.
The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Class A ordinary shares and any voting rights until
they exercise their warrants and receive Class A ordinary shares. After the issuance of Class A ordinary shares upon
exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on
by shareholders.

 

Warrants may be exercised only for a whole
number of Class A ordinary shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of
the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the
nearest whole number the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued to the warrant holder.

 

Placement Warrants

 

Except as described below, the placement
warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants sold as part of the units in the initial public
offering. The placement warrants (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the placement warrants)
will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination (subject
to certain limited exceptions) and they will not be redeemable by us (subject to certain limited exceptions) so long as they are
held by our sponsor or its permitted transferees. Our sponsor, or its permitted transferees, has the option to exercise the placement
warrants on a cashless basis. If the placement warrants are held by holders other than our sponsor or its permitted transferees,
the placement warrants will be redeemable by us in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as
the warrants included in the units sold in the initial public offering. Any amendment to the terms of the placement warrants or
any provision of the warrant agreement with respect to the placement warrants will require a vote of holders of at least 65% of
the number of the then outstanding placement warrants.

 

Except as described above under “—
Public Shareholders’ Warrants — Redemption procedures and cashless exercise,” if holders of the placement warrants
elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering his, her or its warrants for that
number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A
ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “historical fair market value” (defined below)
over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the historical fair market value. The “historical fair market value”
will mean the average reported closing price of the Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading
day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the holders of warrants.

Certain Differences in Corporate Law

 

Cayman Islands companies are governed by
the Companies Law. The Companies Law is modeled on English Law but does not follow recent English Law statutory enactments, and
differs from laws applicable to United States corporations and their shareholders. Set forth below is a summary of the material
differences between the provisions of the Companies Law applicable to us and the laws applicable to companies incorporated in the
United States and their shareholders.

 

Mergers and Similar Arrangements.    In
certain circumstances, the Companies Law allows for mergers or consolidations between two Cayman Islands companies, or between
a Cayman Islands exempted company and a company incorporated in another jurisdiction (provided that is facilitated by the laws
of that other jurisdiction).

 

Where the merger or consolidation is between
two Cayman Islands companies, the directors of each company must approve a written plan of merger or consolidation containing certain
prescribed information. That plan or merger or consolidation must then be authorized by either (a) a special resolution (usually
a majority of 662/3% in value who attend and vote at a general meeting) of the shareholders of each company;
or (b) such other authorization, if any, as may be specified in such constituent company’s articles of association.
No shareholder resolution is required for a merger between a parent company (i.e., a company that owns at least 90% of the issued
shares of each class in a subsidiary company) and its subsidiary company. The consent of each holder of a fixed or floating security
interest of a constituent company must be obtained, unless the court waives such requirement. If the Cayman Islands Registrar of
Companies is satisfied that the requirements of the Companies Law (which includes certain other formalities) have been complied
with, the Registrar of Companies will register the plan of merger or consolidation.

 

Where the merger or consolidation involves
a foreign company, the procedure is similar, save that with respect to the foreign company, the directors of the Cayman Islands
exempted company are required to make a declaration to the effect that, having made due enquiry, they are of the opinion that the
requirements set out below have been met: (i) that the merger or consolidation is permitted or not prohibited by the constitutional
documents of the foreign company and by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the foreign company is incorporated, and that those
laws and any requirements of those constitutional documents have been or will be complied with; (ii) that no petition or other
similar proceeding has been filed and remains outstanding or order made or resolution adopted to wind up or liquidate the foreign
company in any jurisdictions; (iii) that no receiver, trustee, administrator or other similar person has been appointed in
any jurisdiction and is acting in respect of the foreign company, its affairs or its property or any part thereof; (iv) that
no scheme, order, compromise or other similar arrangement has been entered into or made in any jurisdiction whereby the rights
of creditors of the foreign company are and continue to be suspended or restricted.

 

Where the surviving company is the Cayman
Islands exempted company, the directors of the Cayman Islands exempted company are further required to make a declaration to the
effect that, having made due enquiry, they are of the opinion that the requirements set out below have been met: (i) that
the foreign company is able to pay its debts as they fall due and that the merger or consolidated is bona fide and not intended
to defraud unsecured creditors of the foreign company; (ii) that in respect of the transfer of any security interest granted
by the foreign company to the surviving or consolidated company (a) consent or approval to the transfer has been obtained,
released or waived; (b) the transfer is permitted by and has been approved in accordance with the constitutional documents
of the foreign company; and (c) the laws of the jurisdiction of the foreign company with respect to the transfer have been
or will be complied with; (iii) that the foreign company will, upon the merger or consolidation becoming effective, cease
to be incorporated, registered or exist under the laws of the relevant foreign jurisdiction; and (iv) that there is no other
reason why it would be against the public interest to permit the merger or consolidation.

 

Where the above procedures are adopted, the
Companies Law provides for a right of dissenting shareholders to be paid a payment of the fair value of his shares upon their dissenting
to the merger or consolidation if they follow a prescribed procedure. In essence, that procedure is as follows (a) the shareholder
must give his written objection to the merger or consolidation to the constituent company before the vote on the merger or consolidation,
including a statement that the shareholder proposes to demand payment for his shares if the merger or consolidation is authorized
by the vote; (b) within 20 days following the date on which the merger or consolidation is approved by the shareholders,
the constituent company must give written notice to each shareholder who made a written objection; (c) a shareholder must
within 20 days following receipt of such notice from the constituent company, give the constituent company a written notice
of his intention to dissent including, among other details, a demand for payment of the fair value of his shares; (d) within
seven days following the date of the expiration of the period set out in paragraph (b) above or seven days following the date
on which the plan of merger or consolidation is filed, whichever is later, the constituent company, the surviving company or the
consolidated company must make a written offer to each dissenting shareholder to purchase his shares at a price that the company
determines is the fair value and if the company and the shareholder agree the price within 30 days following the date on which
the offer was made, the company must pay the shareholder such amount; (e) if the company and the shareholder fail to agree
a price within such 30 day period, within 20 days following the date on which such 30 day period expires, the company
(and any dissenting shareholder) must file a petition with the Cayman Islands Grand Court to determine the fair value and such
petition must be accompanied by a list of the names and addresses of the dissenting shareholders with whom agreements as to the
fair value of their shares have not been reached by the company. At the hearing of that petition, the court has the power to determine
the fair value of the shares together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid by the company upon the amount determined
to be the fair value. Any dissenting shareholder whose name appears on the list filed by the company may participate fully in all
proceedings until the determination of fair value is reached. These rights of a dissenting shareholder are not be available in
certain circumstances, for example, to dissenters holding shares of any class in respect of which an open market exists on a recognized
stock exchange or recognized interdealer quotation system at the relevant date or where the consideration for such shares to be
contributed are shares of any company listed on a national securities exchange or shares of the surviving or consolidated company.

Moreover, Cayman Islands law also has separate
statutory provisions that facilitate the reconstruction or amalgamation of companies in certain circumstances, schemes of arrangement
will generally be more suited for complex mergers or other transactions involving widely held companies, commonly referred to in
the Cayman Islands as a “scheme of arrangement” which may be tantamount to a merger. In the event that a merger was
sought pursuant to a scheme of arrangement (the procedure of which are more rigorous and take longer to complete than the procedures
typically required to consummate a merger in the United States), the arrangement in question must be approved by a majority
in number of each class of shareholders and creditors with whom the arrangement is to be made and who must in addition represent
three-fourths in value of each such class of shareholders or creditors, as the case may be, that are present and voting either
in person or by proxy at an annual general meeting, or extraordinary general meeting summoned for that purpose. The convening of
the meetings and subsequently the terms of the arrangement must be sanctioned by the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands. While a
dissenting shareholder would have the right to express to the court the view that the transaction should not be approved, the court
can be expected to approve the arrangement if it satisfies itself that:

 

		●	we are not proposing to act illegally or beyond the scope
of our corporate authority and the statutory provisions as to majority vote have been complied with;

 

		●	the shareholders have been fairly represented at the meeting
in question;

 

		●	the arrangement is such as a businessman would reasonably
approve; and

 

		●	the arrangement is not one that would more properly be
sanctioned under some other provision of the Companies Law or that would amount to a “fraud on the minority.”

 

If a scheme of arrangement or takeover offer
(as described below) is approved, any dissenting shareholder would have no rights comparable to appraisal rights, which would otherwise
ordinarily be available to dissenting shareholders of United States corporations, providing rights to receive payment in cash
for the judicially determined value of the shares.

 

Squeeze-out Provisions.    When
a takeover offer is made and accepted by holders of 90% of the shares to whom the offer relates is made within four months, the
offeror may, within a two-month period, require the holders of the remaining shares to transfer such shares on the terms of
the offer. An objection can be made to the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands but this is unlikely to succeed unless there is evidence
of fraud, bad faith, collusion or inequitable treatment of the shareholders.

 

Further, transactions similar to a merger,
reconstruction and/or an amalgamation may in some circumstances be achieved through other means to these statutory provisions,
such as a share capital exchange, asset acquisition or control, through contractual arrangements, of an operating business.

Shareholders’ Suits.    Maples
and Calder, our Cayman Islands legal counsel, is not aware of any reported class action having been brought in a Cayman Islands
court. Derivative actions have been brought in the Cayman Islands courts, and the Cayman Islands courts have confirmed the availability
for such actions. In most cases, we will be the proper plaintiff in any claim based on a breach of duty owed to us, and a claim
against (for example) our officers or directors usually may not be brought by a shareholder. However, based both on Cayman Islands
authorities and on English authorities, which would in all likelihood be of persuasive authority and be applied by a court in the
Cayman Islands, exceptions to the foregoing principle apply in circumstances in which:

 

		●	a company is acting, or proposing to act, illegally or
beyond the scope of its authority;

 

		●	the act complained of, although not beyond the scope of
the authority, could be effected if duly authorized by more than the number of votes which have actually been obtained; or

 

		●	those who control the company are perpetrating a “fraud
on the minority.”

 

A shareholder may have a direct right of
action against us where the individual rights of that shareholder have been infringed or are about to be infringed.

 

Enforcement of Civil Liabilities.    The
Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws as compared to the United States and provides less protection to investors.
Additionally, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to sue before the Federal courts of the United States.

 

We have been advised by Maples and Calder,
our Cayman Islands legal counsel, that the courts of the Cayman Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize or enforce against us
judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of
the United States or any state; and (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against
us predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state, so far
as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement
in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman Islands will recognize and enforce
a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that
a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been
given provided certain conditions are met. For a foreign judgment to be enforced in the Cayman Islands, such judgment must be final
and conclusive and for a liquidated sum, and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent with a Cayman Islands
judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, and or be of a kind the enforcement
of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may
well be held to be contrary to public policy). A Cayman Islands Court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings
are being brought elsewhere.

 

Special Considerations for Exempted Companies.    We
are an exempted company with limited liability (meaning our public shareholders have no liability, as members of the Company, for
liabilities of the Company over and above the amount paid for their shares) under the Companies Law. The Companies Law distinguishes
between ordinary resident companies and exempted companies. Any company that is registered in the Cayman Islands but conducts business
mainly outside of the Cayman Islands may apply to be registered as an exempted company. The requirements for an exempted company
are essentially the same as for an ordinary company except for the exemptions and privileges listed below:

 

		●	annual reporting requirements are minimal and consist mainly
of a statement that the company has conducted its operations mainly outside of the Cayman Islands and has complied with the provisions
of the Companies Law;

 

		●	an exempted company’s register of members is not
open to inspection;

 

		●	an exempted company does not have to hold an annual general
meeting;

 

		●	an exempted company may issue negotiable or bearer shares
or shares with no par value;

 

		●	an exempted company may obtain an undertaking against the
imposition of any future taxation (such undertakings are usually given for 20 years in the first instance);

 

		●	an exempted company may register by way of continuation
in another jurisdiction and be deregistered in the Cayman Islands;

 

		●	an exempted company may register as a limited duration
company; and

 

		●	an exempted company may register as a segregated portfolio
company.

Our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association

 

Our amended and restated memorandum and articles
of association contain certain requirements and restrictions relating to the initial public offering that will apply to us until
the completion of our initial business combination. These provisions cannot be amended without a special resolution. As a matter
of Cayman Islands law, a resolution is deemed to be a special resolution where it has been approved by either (i) at least
two-thirds (or any higher threshold specified in a company’s articles of association) of a company’s shareholders
who attend and vote at a general meeting for which notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution
has been given; or (ii) if so authorized by a company’s articles of association, by a unanimous written resolution of
all of the company’s shareholders. Our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that special resolutions
must be approved either by at least two-thirds of our shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting for which notice
specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution has been given (i.e., the lowest threshold permissible
under Cayman Islands law), or by a unanimous written resolution of all of our shareholders.

 

Our sponsor will participate in any vote
to amend our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association and will have the discretion to vote in any manner it
chooses. Specifically, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide, among other things, that:

 

		●	if we are unable to complete our initial business combination
by August 28, 2022, we will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably
possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the public
shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including
interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided
by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights
as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as
promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and our Board
of Directors, liquidate and dissolve;

 

		●	prior to our initial business combination, we may not issue
additional ordinary shares that would entitle the holders thereof to (i) receive funds from the trust account or (ii) vote
on any initial business combination;

 

		●	although we do not intend to enter into a business combination
with a target business that is affiliated with our sponsor, our directors or our officers, we are not prohibited from doing so.
In the event we enter into such a transaction, we, or a committee of independent directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent
investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking
to acquire or an independent accounting firm, that such a business combination is fair to our company from a financial point of
view;

 

		●	if a shareholder vote on our initial business combination
is not required by law and we do not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, we will offer to redeem
our public shares pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act, and will file tender offer documents
with the SEC prior to completing our initial business combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information
about our initial business combination and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act;

 

		●	so long as we obtain and maintain a listing for our securities
on NASDAQ, our initial business combination must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair
market value of at least 80% of our assets held in the trust account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes
payable on the income earned on the trust account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial business combination;

 

    15

     

    

 

		●	If our shareholders approve an amendment to our amended
and restated memorandum and articles of association that would (i) modify the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem
100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination by August 28, 2022 or (ii) with respect
to the other provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, we will provide our
public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their ordinary shares upon such approval at a per-share price,
payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account, including interest (which interest shall
be net of taxes payable) divided by the number of then outstanding public shares; and

 

		●	we will not effectuate our initial business combination
with another blank check company or a similar company with nominal operations.

 

In addition, our amended and restated memorandum
and articles of association provide that we will only redeem our public shares so long as (after such redemption) our net tangible
assets will be at least $5,000,001 either prior to or upon consummation of our initial business combination, after payment of the
deferred underwriting commission.

 

The Companies Law permits a company incorporated
in the Cayman Islands to amend its memorandum and articles of association with the approval of the holders of at least two-thirds of
such company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares who attend and vote in a general meeting. A company’s articles
of association may specify that the approval of a higher majority is required but, provided the approval of the required majority
is obtained, any Cayman Islands exempted company may amend its memorandum and articles of association regardless of whether its
memorandum and articles of association provides otherwise. Accordingly, although we could amend any of the provisions relating
to our initial public offering, structure and business plan which are contained in our amended and restated memorandum and articles
of association, we view all of these provisions as binding obligations to our shareholders and neither we, nor our officers or
directors, will take any action to amend or waive any of these provisions unless we provide dissenting public shareholders with
the opportunity to redeem their public shares.

 

Anti-Money Laundering — Cayman Islands

 

In order to comply with legislation or regulations
aimed at the prevention of money laundering, we are required to adopt and maintain anti-money laundering procedures, and may
require subscribers to provide evidence to verify their identity, the identity of their beneficial owners/controllers and source
of funds. Where permitted, and subject to certain conditions, we may also delegate the maintenance of our anti-money laundering
procedures (including the acquisition of due diligence information) to a suitable person.

 

We reserve the right to request such information
as is necessary to verify the identity of a subscriber. In some cases the directors may be satisfied that no further information
is required since an exemption applies under the Anti-Money Laundering Regulations (2020 Revision) of the Cayman Islands,
as amended and revised from time to time (the “Regulations”) or any other applicable law. Depending on the circumstances
of each application, a detailed verification of identity might not be required where:

 

		(a)	the subscriber makes the payment for their investment from
an account held in the subscriber’s name at a recognized financial institution; or

 

		(b)	the subscriber is regulated by a recognized regulatory
authority and is based or incorporated in, or formed under the law of, a recognized jurisdiction; or

 

		(c)	the application is made through an intermediary which is
regulated by a recognized regulatory authority and is based in or incorporated in, or formed under the law of a recognized jurisdiction
and an assurance is provided in relation to the procedures undertaken on the underlying investors.

 

For the purposes of these exceptions, recognition
of a financial institution, regulatory authority or jurisdiction will be determined in accordance with the Regulations by reference
to those jurisdictions recognized by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority as having equivalent anti-money laundering regulations.

 

    16

     

    

 

In the event of delay or failure on the part
of the subscriber in producing any information required for verification purposes, we may refuse to accept the application, in
which case any funds received will be returned without interest to the account from which they were originally debited.

 

We also reserve the right to refuse to make
any payment to a shareholder if our directors or officers suspect or are advised that the payment to such shareholder might result
in a breach of applicable anti-money laundering or other laws or regulations by any person in any relevant jurisdiction, or
if such refusal is considered necessary or appropriate to ensure our compliance with any such laws or regulations in any applicable
jurisdiction.

 

If any person in the Cayman Islands knows
or suspects or has reasonable grounds for knowing or suspecting that another person is engaged in criminal conduct or money laundering
or is involved with terrorism or terrorist financing and property and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their
attention in the course of business in the regulated sector, or other trade, profession, business or employment, the person will
be required to report such knowledge or suspicion to (i) the Financial Reporting Authority (“FRA”) of the Cayman
Islands, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Law (2020 Revision) of the Cayman Islands if the disclosure relates to criminal conduct
or money laundering, or (ii) a police officer of the rank of constable or higher, or the FRA, pursuant to the Terrorism Law
(2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, if the disclosure relates to involvement with terrorism or terrorist financing and property.
Such a report shall not be treated as a breach of confidence or of any restriction upon the disclosure of information imposed by
any enactment or otherwise.

 

Cayman Islands Data Protection

 

We have certain duties under the Data Protection
Law, 2017 of the Cayman Islands (the “DPL”) based on internationally accepted principles of data privacy.

 

Privacy Notice

This privacy notice puts our shareholders
on notice that through your investment in the company you will provide us with certain personal information which constitutes personal
data within the meaning of the DPL (“personal data”).

 

In the following discussion, the “company”
refers to us and our affiliates and/or delegates, except where the context requires otherwise.

 

Investor Data

 

We will collect, use, disclose, retain and
secure personal data to the extent reasonably required only and within the parameters that could be reasonably expected during
the normal course of business. We will only process, disclose, transfer or retain personal data to the extent legitimately required
to conduct our activities of on an ongoing basis or to comply with legal and regulatory obligations to which we are subject. We
will only transfer personal data in accordance with the requirements of the DPL, and will apply appropriate technical and organizational
information security measures designed to protect against unauthorized or unlawful processing of the personal data and against
the accidental loss, destruction or damage to the personal data.

 

In our use of this personal data, we will
be characterized as a “data controller” for the purposes of the DPL, while our affiliates and service providers who
may receive this personal data from us in the conduct of our activities may either act as our “data processors” for
the purposes of the DPL or may process personal information for their own lawful purposes in connection with services provided
to us.

 

We may also obtain personal data from other
public sources. Personal data includes, without limitation, the following information relating to a shareholder and/or any individuals
connected with a shareholder as an investor: name, residential address, email address, contact details, corporate contact information,
signature, nationality, place of birth, date of birth, tax identification, credit history, correspondence records, passport number,
bank account details, source of funds details and details relating to the shareholder’s investment activity.

 

    17

     

    

 

Who this Affects

 

If you are a natural person, this will affect
you directly. If you are a corporate investor (including, for these purposes, legal arrangements such as trusts or exempted limited
partnerships) that provides us with personal data on individuals connected to you for any reason in relation your investment in
the Company, this will be relevant for those individuals and you should transmit the content of this Privacy Notice to such individuals
or otherwise advise them of its content.

 

How the Company May Use Your Personal Data

 

The company, as the data controller, may
collect, store and use personal data for lawful purposes, including, in particular:

 

		(i)	where this is necessary for the performance of our rights
and obligations under any purchase agreements;

 

		(ii)	where this is necessary for compliance with a legal and
regulatory obligation to which we are subject (such as compliance with anti-money laundering and FATCA/CRS requirements);
and/or

 

		(iii)	where this is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate
interests and such interests are not overridden by your interests, fundamental rights or freedoms.

 

Should we wish to use personal data for other
specific purposes (including, if applicable, any purpose that requires your consent), we will contact you.

 

Why We May Transfer Your Personal Data

 

In certain circumstances, we may be legally
obliged to share personal data and other information with respect to your shareholding with the relevant regulatory authorities
such as the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority or the Tax Information Authority. They, in turn, may exchange this information with
foreign authorities, including tax authorities.

 

We anticipate disclosing personal data to
persons who provide services to us and their respective affiliates (which may include certain entities located outside the US,
the Cayman Islands or the European Economic Area), who will process your personal data on our behalf.

 

The Data Protection Measures We Take

 

Any transfer of personal data by us or our
duly authorized affiliates and/or delegates outside of the Cayman Islands shall be in accordance with the requirements of the DPL.

 

We and our duly authorized affiliates and/or
delegates shall apply appropriate technical and organizational information security measures designed to protect against unauthorized
or unlawful processing of personal data, and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data.

 

We shall notify you of any personal data
breach that is reasonably likely to result in a risk to your interests, fundamental rights or freedoms or those data subjects to
whom the relevant personal data relates.

 

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of our Amended and Restated
Memorandum and Articles of Association

 

Our authorized but unissued ordinary shares
and preference shares are available for future issuances without shareholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate
purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized
but unissued and unreserved ordinary shares and preference shares could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain
control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

9.            Effect
of the Amendment. On and after the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, (i) each reference to the “Credit Agreement”
in any Loan Document shall be deemed to be a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement, (ii) the terms “Agreement”,
 “this Agreement”, “herein”, “hereinafter”, “hereto”, “hereof”, and
words of similar import, as used in the Amended Credit Agreement, shall, unless the context otherwise requires, mean the Amended
Credit Agreement, (iii) this Agreement shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Amended Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, all Loan Documents shall continue to be
in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this
Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of the
Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees
that the terms of this Amendment do not constitute a novation but, rather, an amendment of the terms of the Existing Credit Agreement.

 

10.           GOVERNING
LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON,
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY
LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

11.           Miscellaneous.
The provisions of Sections 9.11 and 9.15 of the Amended Credit Agreement are incorporated by reference herein and
made a part hereof.

 

12.           Severability.
In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or
obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

13.            Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of
which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and
the same contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other customary
means of electronic transmission (e.g., “.pdf”) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart
hereof. The words “execution,” “execute”, “signed,” “signature,” and words of like
import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including
without limitation amendments, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures on electronic platforms approved
by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity
or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the
extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act,
the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions
Act. Each of the parties represents and warrants to the other parties that it has the corporate capacity and authority to execute
the Agreement through electronic means and there are no restrictions for doing so in that party’s constitutive documents.

Section 1.03          Classification

Section 1.05          Divisions.

Section 1.06        Borrower
Representative. The Subsidiary Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Borrower as its representative. The Administrative

of conversion/continuation of any Loans pursuant to this Agreement or similar notices, giving instructions with respect to the
disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans, selecting interest rate options, requesting Letters of Credit, giving and receiving
all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect
of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or the Borrowers under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Borrower
hereby accepts such appointment. The Subsidiary Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant,
agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made
by the Subsidiary Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against the Subsidiary Borrower to the same extent as if the
same had been made directly by the Subsidiary Borrower.

 

Section 1.07        Interest
Rate; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, which is
derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing
banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct
Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions
to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”)
for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London
interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine
the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently
underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. In the event
that the London interbank offered rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances as set forth in Section 2.08(c),
such Section 2.08(c) provides a mechanism for determining the alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent
will notify the Administrative Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.08(c), in advance of any change to the reference rate upon
which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election,
Section 2.08(c) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly
notify the Administrative Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.08(c), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest
rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall
not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered
rate or other rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto,
or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented
pursuant to Section 2.08(c), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and
(ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.08(c), including without
limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be
similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Eurodollar Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did
the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability).

The Credits

 

Section 2.01          Commitments.

 

(a)            [Reserved].

 

(b)            Subject
to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, each Revolving Credit Lender
agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower(i) prior
to the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, the Administrative Borrower, and (ii) from and after the Fifth Amendment Effective
Date, the Borrowers, on a joint and several basis as between the Borrowers, at any time and from time to time on
or after the Original Closing Date, and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the
Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding
that will not result in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment.
Within the limits set forth in the preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the
BorrowerBorrowers
may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

 

(c)            Each
Lender having an Incremental Term Loan Commitment agrees, severally and not jointly, subject to the terms and conditions and relying
upon the representations and warranties set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement, to make

(d)            Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no more than seven (7) Classes of Loans and seven (7) Classes of Commitments
shall be outstanding at any one time.

 

Section 2.02          Loans.
(a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their
applicable Commitments (or, in the case of Swing Line Loans, ratably in accordance with their respective Swing Line Commitments);
provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender
of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any
other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(f) and
Swing Line Loans or as otherwise set forth herein, the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount
that is (i) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 or (ii) equal to the remaining available
balance of the applicable Commitments. Each Borrowing of Swing Line Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) an
integral multiple of $50,000 and not less than $100,000 or (ii) equal to the remaining available balance of the Swing Line
Commitment.

 

    	 	58	 

     

    

 

(b)            Subject
to Sections 2.02(f), 2.08 and 2.15, each Borrowing (other than a Borrowing of Swing Line Loans which
shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans) shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the BorrowerBorrowers
may request pursuant to Section 2.03. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic
or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect
the obligation of the BorrowerBorrowers
to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same
time; provided, however, that the BorrowerBorrowers
shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than ten (10) Eurodollar Borrowings
outstanding hereunder at any time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether
they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

 

(c)            Except
with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(f) and Swing Line Loans, each Lender shall make each Loan
to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in New
York City as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, and the Administrative Agent
shall promptly credit the amounts so received to an account designated by the Administrative
Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein
specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

 

(d)            Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that
such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above
and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, but is not required to, make available to the BorrowerBorrowers
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, such Lender and theeach
Borrower 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 BorrowerBorrowers
to but excluding the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the BorrowerBorrowers,
a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the
case of such Lender, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds (which
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding
amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

 

(e)            Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, theno
Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Revolving
Credit Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

 

    	 	59	 

     

    

 

(f)            If
the applicable Issuing Bank shall not have received from the BorrowerBorrowers
the payment required to be made by Section 2.24(e) within the time specified in such Section, such Issuing Bank
will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the L/C Disbursement and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving
Credit Lender of such L/C Disbursement and its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such
Revolving Credit Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on any day, not later than
10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage
of such L/C Disbursement (it being understood that (i) if the conditions precedent to Borrowing set forth in Sections 4.01(b) and
4.01(c) have been satisfied, such amount shall be deemed to constitute an ABR Revolving Loan of such Lender and, to
the extent of such payment, the obligations of the BorrowerBorrowers
in respect of such L/C Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced with the resulting ABR Revolving Credit Borrowing, and (ii) if
such conditions precedent to Borrowing have not been satisfied, then any such amount paid by any Revolving Credit Lender shall
not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the BorrowerBorrowers
from itstheir
obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement), and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to such Issuing Bank amounts so
received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to such Issuing Bank any amounts received
by it from the BorrowerBorrowers
pursuant to Section 2.24(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Credit Lender makes any payment pursuant to this
paragraph (f); any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative
Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made such payments and to such Issuing Bank, as their interests may appear.
If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative
Agent as provided above, such Lender and theeach
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 paragraph to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account
of such Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the BorrowerBorrowers,
a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(a), and (ii) in
the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Alternate Base
Rate.

set forth in Section 2.02. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested
Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in any such notice,
then the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders

Lender may request that Loans made by it hereunder be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns in the form of a Revolving Loan
Note or Term Loan Note, as applicable, or in such other form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the BorrowerBorrowers.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event any Lender shall request and receive such a promissory note,
the interests represented by such note shall at all times (including after any assignment of all or part of such interests pursuant
to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes payable to the payee named therein or its registered
assigns.

 

Section 2.05          Fees.
(a) The Borrower agreesBorrowers
agree to pay to each Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and
December in each year and on each date on which any Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated
as provided herein, (i) a commitment fee (a “Revolving Credit Commitment Fee”), initially equal
to 0.50% per annum on the daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment (reduced by the face amount of Letters of Credit
issued and outstanding) of such Lender during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Original Closing Date
or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender shall expire
or be terminated); provided, that on and after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the commitment fees shall be determined
in accordance with the pricing grid below.

 

    	 	61	 

     

    

 

	Total Leverage Ratio	X ≤ 2.75:1.00	> 2.75:1.00 X ≤ 4.25:1.00	X > 4.25:1.00
	Revolving Credit Commitment Fee 	0.25%	0.375%	0.50%

 

Each change in the Revolving Credit Commitment
Fee resulting from a change in the Total Leverage Ratio shall be effective on and after the date of delivery to the Administrative
Agent of the financial statements and certificates required by clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 5.04(a),
respectively, indicating such change until the date immediately preceding the next date of delivery of such financial statements
indicating another such change. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time during which the Administrative
Borrower has failed to deliver the financial statements and certificates required by clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of
Section 5.04(a), respectively, the Total Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than 4.25:1.00 for purposes of
determining the Revolving Credit Commitment Fee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.05
or elsewhere in this Agreement, if it is subsequently determined that the computation of the Total Leverage Ratio delivered to
the Administrative Agent is inaccurate for any reason and the result thereof is that the Lenders received Revolving Credit Commitment
Fees less than that which would have been applicable had the Total Leverage Ratio been accurately determined, then, for all purposes
of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Commitment Fee for any day occurring within the period covered by inaccurate computation
shall retroactively be deemed to be the relevant percentage as based upon the accurately determined Total Leverage Ratio for such
period, and any shortfall in the fees paid by the BorrowerBorrowers
for the relevant period pursuant to this Section 2.05 as a result of the miscalculation of the Total Leverage Ratio
shall be due and payable; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) other than while an Event of Default described
in paragraph (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, such shortfall shall
be due and payable five (5) Business Days following the determination described above (and, if such determination was made
by the Administrative Agent, notice by the Administrative Agent thereof to the Administrative
Borrower) and (y) if an Event of Default described in (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred
and is continuing, such shortfall shall be due and payable immediately upon the determination described above. The Revolving Credit
Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. For the purpose of calculating
any Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Fee, the outstanding Swing Line Loans during the period for which such Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment Fee is calculated shall be deemed to be zero.

 

(b)            The
Administrative Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent, for its own account, a non-refundable agency fee as set forth in the Fee Letter (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

 

(c)            The
Borrower agreesBorrowers
agree to pay (i) to each Revolving Credit Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day
of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such
Lender shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee (an “L/C Participation Fee”) calculated on such
Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the daily aggregate L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed
L/C Disbursements) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Original Closing Date or ending with the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired and the Revolving
Credit Commitments of all Lenders shall have been terminated) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin from time to
time used to determine the interest rate on Revolving Credit Borrowings comprised of Eurodollar Loans pursuant to Section 2.06,
and (ii) to each Issuing Bank with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (A) a fronting fee as
negotiated with such Issuing Bank, (1) on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each of March, June, September and
December, commencing on the last Business Day of June, 2015 and (2) on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and (B) the
standard fronting, issuance and drawing fees specified from time to time by such Issuing Bank (collectively, the “Issuing
Bank Fees”). All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number
of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

 

    	 	62	 

     

    

 

(d)            The
Administrative Borrower agrees to pay on the Original
Closing Date such closing fees as may be agreed in respect of the Credit Facilities between the Administrative
Borrower and the Arrangers (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement) pursuant to a letter agreement dated as of the Original
Closing Date, which closing fees will be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Original Closing Date and non-refundable
and non-creditable thereafter.

 

(e)            All
Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate,
among the Lenders, except that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of
the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

 

Section 2.06     Interest
on Loans. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including
any Swing Line Loans) shall bear interest (in the case of ABR Loans bearing interest based upon the Prime Rate, computed on the
basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and in all other cases, computed on the
basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days at all times and calculated from and including the date of such
Borrowing to but excluding the date of repayment or conversion thereof), at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base
Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

 

(b)            Subject
to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on
the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar
Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

 

(c)            Interest
on each Loan shall be payable by the Borrowers on
the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The applicable Alternate Base
Rate or Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be
determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

Section 2.07          Default
Interest. If any Event of Default under Article VII has occurred and is continuing, then, from the date of
such Event of Default and for so long as such Event of Default is continuing, to the extent permitted by law, all amounts not paid
when due under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall bear interest (after as well as before judgment), payable by
the Borrowers on demand, (a) in the case of principal, at the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan pursuant
to Section 2.06 plus 2.00% per annum and (b) in all other cases, at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of
the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when determined by reference to the Prime
Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times) equal to the rate that would be applicable to an ABR Loan plus 2.00% per annum
(such 2.00% rate referred to in clauses (a) and (b), the “Default Rate”).

 

Section 2.08          Alternate
Rate of Interest.

 

(a)            In
the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for
a Eurodollar Borrowing the Administrative Agent shall have determined that Dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans
comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market, or that the rates at which such Dollar deposits
are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the majority of Lenders of making or maintaining Eurodollar
Loans during such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar Rate,
the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or fax notice of such determination to the Administrative
Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised
the Administrative
Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by thea
Borrower for a Eurodollar Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.10 shall be deemed to be a
request for an ABR Borrowing. Each determination by the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.08 shall be
conclusive absent manifest error.

 

    	 	63	 

     

    

 

(b)            If
on or before the first day of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing (i) the Administrative Agent determines in
good faith that, for any reason, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate (including without
limitation, the unavailability of matching deposits in the applicable currency) or (ii) such rate will not accurately reflect
the cost to the Lenders of funding Eurodollar Borrowings for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give written
notice (in reasonable detail) of such determination and of the basis therefor to the Administrative
Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Administrative
Borrower and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist (which the Administrative Agent shall
do promptly after the Administrative Agent determines that such circumstances do not exist), (A) the obligations of the Lenders
to make, continue or convert Revolving Loans as or into such Eurodollar Loans, or to convert ABR Borrowings into such Eurodollar
Borrowings, shall be suspended and (B) each Eurodollar Borrowing will automatically on the last day of the then existing Interest
Period therefor, convert into an ABR Borrowing.

 

(c) If
at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the
circumstances set forth in clause (b)(i) above have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the
circumstances set forth in clause (b)(i) above have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Rate
or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific
date after which the LIBO Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent
and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the
then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and
shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this
Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable
Margin). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.08, such amendment shall become effective without any further
action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five
(5) Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from
the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be
determined in accordance with this clause (c) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the
first sentence of this Section 2.08(c) only to the extent the LIBO Rate for the applicable currency and such Interest
Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any requests for the conversion of any Borrowing
of Revolving Loans to, or continuation of any Borrowing of Revolving Loans as, a Eurodollar Loan shall be ineffective, (y) if
any Notice of Borrowing requests a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing of ABR Loans; provided
that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this
Agreement.

 

    	 	64	 

     

    

 

(c)            (i) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as
applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the
then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of
the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace
such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark
settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document
and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark
Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes
hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) 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.

 

(ii)            In
connection with the implementation 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 or any other Loan Document.

 

(iii)            The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark
Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (B) the implementation
of any Benchmark Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (D) the removal
or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (iv) below and (E) the commencement or conclusion of
any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if
applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.08(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 or any selection, 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 to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case,
as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.08(c).

 

(iv)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, 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 or USD LIBOR) and either (1) 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 (2) 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 or
will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for
any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that
was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for
a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will
no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition
of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

 

    	 	65	 

     

    

 

(v)            Upon
the Administrative Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Administrative
Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans to be made, converted
or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Administrative Borrower will be deemed to have converted
any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at
any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of 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 Alternate
Base Rate.

 

Section 2.09     Termination
and Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Revolving Credit Commitments shall automatically terminate on the applicable
Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The Swing Line Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Original Revolving Credit Maturity
Date (unless the Swing Line Lender elects to extend the maturity of its Swing Line Commitment). The L/C Commitment shall automatically
terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) the date five (5) Business
Days prior to the Original Revolving Credit Maturity Date (unless the applicable Issuing Bank elects to extend the maturity of
its L/C Commitment).

 

(b)            Upon
at least three (3) Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or fax notice to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative
Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Revolving Credit
Commitments, the Term Loan Commitments or the Swing Line Commitment; provided, however, that (i) each partial
reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum amount of $1,000,000,
(ii) each partial reduction of the Swing Line Commitment shall be in an integral multiple of $250,000 and in a minimum amount
of $1,000,000 and (iii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate
Revolving Credit Exposure at the time; provided further, that if such notice states that the reduction or termination is
contingent upon the successful issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.01 to be issued or incurred
or any other specified event (including, but not limited to, the occurrence of any Asset Sale or Change of Control), then the Administrative
Borrower may, if the specified condition is not satisfied, (x) revoke such notice and/or (y) extend the reduction date
by not more than five (5) Business Days, in the case of each of clauses (x) and (y), by providing notice to the Administrative
Agent on or prior to the specified date.

 

(c)            Each
reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Term Loan Commitments hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in
accordance with their respective applicable Commitments. The BorrowerBorrowers
shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of each termination or reduction,
the Commitment Fees on the amount of the Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued to but excluding the date of such termination
or reduction.

 

Section 2.10          Conversion
and Continuation of Borrowings. The Administrative
Borrower shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (a) not
later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three (3) Business Days prior to conversion, to convert any Eurodollar
Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing, (b) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three (3) Business Days prior
to conversion or continuation, to convert any ABR Borrowing into a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing
as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, and (c) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three
(3) Business Days prior to conversion, to convert the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing to another
permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

 

    	 	66	 

     

    

 

(i)            each
conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the
Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing;

 

(ii)            if
less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing
shall satisfy the limitations specified in Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) regarding the principal amount
and maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type;

 

(iii)           each
conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent by recording for the account of such Lender the new Loan
of such Lender resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent
principal amount, and accrued interest on any Eurodollar Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the BorrowerBorrowers
at the time of conversion;

 

(iv)           if
any Eurodollar Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16;

 

(v)            any
portion of a Borrowing maturing or required to be repaid in less than one month may not be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar
Borrowing;

 

(vi)           any
portion of a Eurodollar Borrowing that cannot be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing by reason of the immediately
preceding clause shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing;

 

(vii)          no
Interest Period may be selected for any Eurodollar Term Borrowing that would end later than the applicable Term Loan Repayment
Date occurring on or after the first day of such Interest Period if, after giving effect to such selection, the aggregate outstanding
amount of the Eurodollar Term Borrowings comprised of Term Loans, as applicable, with Interest Periods ending on or prior to the
applicable date would not be at least equal to the principal amount of applicable Term Borrowings to be paid on such date;

 

(viii)         upon
notice to the Administrative Borrower from the Administrative
Agent given at the request of the Required Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default,
no outstanding Loan may be converted into, or continued as, a Eurodollar Loan; and

 

(ix)           this
Section shall not apply to Swing Line Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

 

    	 	67	 

     

    

 

Each notice pursuant
to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount
of the Borrowing that the Borrower requestsBorrowers
request be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar
Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be
a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period
with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as
a Eurodollar Borrowing, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders
of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued
Borrowing. If the Administrative Borrower shall not
have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period
(and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing
shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be converted
to an ABR Borrowing.

 

Section 2.11          Repayment
of Term Borrowings. (a) The BorrowerBorrowers
shall pay to the Administrative Agent,

 

(i)             for

equal to the amount set forth for such date in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement, together in each case
with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment; and

 

(ii)            for
the account of the Lenders with Refinancing Term Loans, on each Refinancing Term Loan Repayment Date, a principal amount of the

equal to the amount set forth for such date in the applicable Refinancing Amendment, together in each case with accrued and unpaid
interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

 

(b)            To
the extent not previously paid, all Other Term Loans, Extended Term Loans and Refinancing Term Loans and shall be due and payable
on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date, respectively, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be
paid to but excluding the date of payment.

repayments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to Section 2.16.

 

Section 2.12          Voluntary
Prepayment. (a) The BorrowerBorrowers
shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon at least three (3) Business

Day prior to the date of prepayment in the case of ABR Loans, to the Administrative Agent before 12:00 (noon), New York City time;
provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000
and not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) at the Administrative
Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12(a), such
prepayment shall not, so long as no Event of Default then exists, be applied to any Revolving Loan of a Defaulting Lender. Prepayments
of Term Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.12(a) shall be applied to the remaining scheduled amortization payments
relating to such Term Loans as elected by the Administrative
Borrower.

 

    	 	68	 

     

    

 

(b)            Each
notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid,
shall be irrevocable and shall commit the BorrowerBorrowers
to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein; provided, however,
that if such notices states that the prepayment is contingent upon the successful issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness permitted
by Section 6.01 to be issued or incurred or any other specified event (including, but not limited to, the occurrence
of any Asset Sale or Change of Control), then the Administrative
Borrower may, if the specified condition is not satisfied, (x) revoke such notice and/or (y) extend the
prepayment date by not more than five (5) Business Days (in the case of each of clauses (x) and (y), by providing notice

and replace or cause to be canceled (or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank
with respect to) all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. If, after giving effect to any partial reduction
of the Revolving Credit Commitments or at any other time, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving
Credit Commitment, then the BorrowerBorrowers
shall, on the date of such reduction or at such other time, repay or prepay Revolving Loans and, after the Revolving Loans shall
have been repaid or prepaid in full, replace or cause to be canceled (or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent and each Issuing Bank with respect to) Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank in an amount sufficient to eliminate
such excess.

 

(b)            Not
later than the fifth Business Day following the receipt by the Administrative
Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (or by any other Person on account of an Asset Sale by the Administrative
Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary) of Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Asset Sale in excess of $5,000,000 in any fiscal
year of the BorrowerBorrowers,
the BorrowerBorrowers
shall apply 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received with respect thereto to prepay outstanding Loans and/or cash collateralize outstanding
Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.13(f); provided that if at the time that any such prepayment
would be required, the Borrower isBorrowers
are required to offer to repurchase Permitted Pari Passu Refinancing Debt that is senior secured loans (or any Permitted
Refinancing Debt thereof that is in the form of senior secured loans and which are secured on a pari passu basis with the Obligations)
pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with the net proceeds of such Asset Sale (such Permitted
Pari Passu Refinancing Debt (or such Permitted Refinancing Debt thereof), “Other Applicable Indebtedness”),
then the BorrowerBorrowers
may apply the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Sale on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of the Loans, outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Other Applicable Indebtedness
at such time; provided further that the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness
shall not exceed the amount required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the
remaining amount, if any, of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be allocated to the Loans and Letters of Credit in accordance with the
terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Loans, to the cash collateralization of Letters of Credit and to the repurchase or prepayment
of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Loans and cash collateralization of Letters of Credit that
would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.13(b) shall be reduced accordingly. 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 five (5) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Loans
in accordance with the terms hereof.

for money borrowed by the Administrative
Borrower or any such Restricted Subsidiary (other than any cash proceeds from the issuance of Indebtedness for
money borrowed permitted pursuant to Section 6.01 (other than the incurrence of Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01(m)(x))),

any fiscal year of the BorrowerBorrowers,
the BorrowerBorrowers
shall not later than the fifth Business Day following the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by the Administrative
Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding Loans and/or
cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.13(f); provided that if at the
time that any such prepayment would be required, the Borrower isBorrowers
are required to offer to repurchase Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof with the net proceeds
from such Casualty Event Receipt, then the BorrowerBorrowers
may apply the Net Cash Proceeds from such Casualty Event Receipt on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of the Loans, outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the
Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided further that the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds allocated to the
Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant

Credit in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Loans, to the cash collateralization of Letters of Credit
and to the repurchase or prepayment of Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Loans and cash collateralization
of Letters of Credit that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.13(d) shall be reduced
accordingly. 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 five (5) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied

pro rata among the Term Loans (if any), in each case, being applied to the remaining scheduled amortization payments relating to
such Term Loans in direct order of maturity, (ii) second, to Revolving Loans and, (iii) third, to cash collateralize
outstanding Letters of Credit (in an amount equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount) on a pro rata basis, in each case, with no
corresponding permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments (except in the case of any mandatory prepayment made under
Section 2.13(c) in connection with Indebtedness incurred under Section 6.01(m)(x), in which case the
Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanently reduced by the amount of such debt incurred).

 

(g)            The
Administrative
Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section 2.13,
(i) a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Administrative
Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and (ii) to the
extent practicable, at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice of such prepayment (other than prepayments of ABR
Revolving Loans that are not made in connection with the termination or permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments).
Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each

(i)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.13, (i) in the case of any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans,
Term Loan Lenders may waive by written notice to the Administrative
Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which such mandatory prepayment would otherwise be required to be
made hereunder the right to receive the amount of such mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans, (ii) if any Term Loan Lender
or Term Loan Lenders elect to waive the right to receive the amount of such mandatory prepayment, all of the amount that otherwise
would have been applied to mandatorily prepay the Term Loans of such Lender or Lenders shall be offered by the BorrowerBorrowers
to the remaining non-waiving Term Loan Lender or Term Loan Lenders on a pro rata basis, based on the respective principal amounts
of their outstanding Term Loans, (iii) if and to the extent any such non-waiving Term Loan Lender does not elect by written
notice to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative
Agent within three Business Days following the date on which the offer is made pursuant to clause (ii) above to accept
such offer, such Term Loan Lender shall be deemed to have rejected such offer, (iv) any amounts not applied to the prepayment
of Term Loans pursuant to clause (ii) or clause (iii) above shall be applied instead on the fourth Business
Day following the date on which the offer is made to Term Loan Lenders pursuant to clause (ii) above to the prepayment
of outstanding Revolving Loans (but without any corresponding reduction in Revolving Credit Commitments) and (v) to the extent
there are any prepayment amounts remaining after the foregoing application, such amounts shall be paid promptly by the Administrative
Agent to the Administrative Borrower (any amounts
returned to the Administrative Borrower pursuant to
this clause (v), “Declined Amounts”).

 

Section 2.14          Reserve
Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in
Law affecting any Lender or Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company,
if any, shall (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any Lender or any Issuing Bank (except
any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar Rate), (ii) subject the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to any Taxes in connection with this Agreement or any Loan, Letter of Credit or Commitment
made hereunder or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or change the basis of taxation payments
in respect thereof (except, in each case, (A) for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnified pursuant to Section 2.20,
(B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection
Income Taxes) or (iii) impose on such Lender or such Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting
this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, and the result of any
of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost (other than Taxes) to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of making or maintaining
any Eurodollar Loan or increase the cost (other than Taxes) to any Lender or any Issuing Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter
of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such
Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the BorrowerBorrowers
will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

 

    	 	71	 

     

    

 

(b)            If
any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding any capital or liquidity requirements has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the
capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the
Loans made or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by such Lender pursuant hereto or the Letters of Credit issued by
such Issuing Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such
Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s
or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with
respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the BorrowerBorrowers
shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

 

(c)            A
certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount or amounts necessary
to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or
(b) above shall be delivered to the Administrative
Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The BorrowerBorrowers
shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 10 days
after its receipt of the same.

 

(d)            Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any
increased costs incurred or reduction suffered in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital shall not constitute
a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the BorrowerBorrowers
shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Lender or any Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) above
with respect to increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date such Lender or such Issuing
Bank, as applicable, notifies the Administrative Borrower
of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention
to claim compensation therefor; provided further that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or
reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period.

 

Section 2.15          Change
in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful
for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect
to any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Administrative
Borrower and to the Administrative Agent:

 

(i)            such
Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder
(or be continued for additional Interest Periods) and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar
Loans, whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing (or to convert an ABR Borrowing to a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue
a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or
a request to continue an ABR Loan as such or to convert a Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration
shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

 

(ii)            such
Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar
Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below.

 

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clause
(i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to
repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead
be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans.

 

    	 	72	 

     

    

 

(b)            For
purposes of this Section 2.15, a notice to the Administrative
Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last
day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date
of receipt by the Administrative
Borrower.

 

Section 2.16          Breakage.
TheEach
Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss (other than a loss of applicable margin or profits) or expense that such
Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its
obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the
principal of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar
Loan to an ABR Loan, or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other than on the
last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (iii) any Eurodollar Loan to be made by such Lender (including any
Eurodollar Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice
of such Loan shall have been given by theany
Borrower hereunder (any of the events referred to in this clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”)
or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment required to be made hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event,
such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining
funds for the Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage Event to
the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest
likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such
period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of any amount or amounts which such Lender
is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Administrative
Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

Section 2.17          Pro
Rata Treatment. Except as provided with respect to Swing Line Loans, subject to the express provisions of this Agreement
which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders, and as required
under Section 2.15, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest
on the Loans, each payment of the Revolving Credit Commitment Fees, each reduction of the applicable Class of Commitments
and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata
among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been
terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans). For purposes of determining the available
Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding Swing Line Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the
Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall have not have made any Swing Line Loans) pro rata
in accordance with such respective Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion
of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of
such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole Dollar amount.

 

    	 	73	 

     

    

 

Section 2.18          Sharing.
Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against theany
Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code
or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any
Loan or L/C Disbursement as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements
shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of any other
Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such
other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans and L/C Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate
unpaid principal amount of the Loans and L/C Exposure and participations in Loans and L/C Exposure held by each Lender shall be
in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure then outstanding as the principal
amount of its Loans and L/C Exposure prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was
to the principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim
or other event; provided, however, that (i) if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made
pursuant to this Section 2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or
purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored
without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall not be construed to apply to any payment
made by the BorrowerBorrowers
pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or 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, other than to theany
Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall
apply), other than as permitted pursuant to Section 9.04. TheEach
Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in
a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or
counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the BorrowerBorrowers
to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to the BorrowerBorrowers
in the amount of such participation.

 

Section 2.19          Payments.
(a) TheEach
Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other
amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date when due
in immediately available Dollars, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may,
in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes
of calculating the amounts due hereunder. Each such payment (other than Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the
applicable Issuing Bank) shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 745 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York 10019.
The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender any payments received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of
such Lender.

 

(b)            Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or
other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business
Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in
the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

 

(c)            Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Administrative
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the applicable
Issuing Bank hereunder that the BorrowerBorrowers
will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower hasBorrowers
have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute
to the Lenders or applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower
hasBorrowers have not in fact
made such payment, then each of the Lenders or applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative
Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, 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 Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight
or short term funds (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error).

 

    	 	74	 

     

    

 

(d)            If
a payment (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively,
a “Improper Payment”)) is made by the Administrative Agent (or its Affiliates) in error (as determined by the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and whether known to the recipient or not) or if a Lender, Issuing Bank, Loan
Party or another recipient of funds is not otherwise entitled to receive such funds at such time of such Improper Payment or from
such Person in accordance with the Loan Documents (each such Lender, Issuing Bank, Loan Party or other recipient, as applicable,
an “Improper Recipient”), then such Improper Recipient shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative
Agent the portion of such Improper Payment that was made in error (or otherwise not intended (as determined by the Administrative
Agent in its sole discretion) to be received) in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and
including the date such Improper Payment was made available by the Administrative Agent (or its Affiliate) to such Improper Recipient
to the date such Improper Payment is repaid to the Administrative Agent (or its Affiliate) in same day funds at (i) in the
case of any Improper Recipient that is a Loan Party (or its Affiliates), at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when determined by reference to the Prime Rate and over
a year of 360 days at all other times) equal to the rate that would be applicable to an ABR Loan, and (ii) in the case of
any other Improper Recipient, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to
represent its cost of overnight or short term funds and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest
error). Each Improper Recipient hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and any other party hereto that is not an Improper Recipient
(or its Affiliate), as applicable, to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Improper Recipient under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Improper Payments due to the Administrative Agent or any other party hereto,
as applicable. Each Improper Recipient and other party hereto shall not assert any right or claim to the Improper Payment, and
hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim
by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Improper Payments received, including without limitation waiver of defense based
on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine or any other claim of entitlement to any portion of an Improper Payment
that the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, determines was made in error.

 

(e)            Each
Improper Recipient hereby further agrees that if it receives an Improper Payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates)
(x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment or other communication
sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Improper Payment (a “Payment Notice”),
(y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, or (z) that such Improper Recipient otherwise becomes aware
was transmitted, or received, in error or mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, an error shall be deemed to have been made
with respect to such Improper Payment. Each Improper Recipient hereby agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly notify
the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event
later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Improper Payment (or
portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made.

 

    	 	75	 

     

    

 

(f)            The
Administrative Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that the receipt by any Lender or Issuing Bank of an Improper Payment
shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed to such Lender or Issuing Bank by the Administrative
Borrower or any other Loan Party.

 

Section 2.20          Taxes.
(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document
shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes except as required by any applicable Law; provided
that, if any Taxes are required by any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding
Agent) to be withheld or deducted from such payments, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions
or withholdings and shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
Law, and (ii) if any Taxes required to be withheld or deducted are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, then the sum payable
by such Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after making such required deductions or withholdings (including such
deductions and withholdings of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.20)
the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been
made.

 

(b)            Without
limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent
timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

 

(c)            Without
duplication of Sections 2.20(a) or (b) above, theeach
Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect
to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the BorrowerBorrowers
hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to
amounts payable under this Section 2.20) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether
or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Recipient shall not be indemnified for any Indemnified Taxes hereunder unless
the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall make written demand on the
Administrative Borrower for reimbursement of such Indemnified Taxes no later than 180 days after the earlier of
(i) the date on which the relevant Governmental Authority makes written demand upon the Recipient for payment of such Indemnified
Taxes, and (ii) the date on which the Recipient has made payment of such Indemnified Taxes. A certificate as to the amount
of such payment or liability delivered to the Administrative
Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on behalf of
itself, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(d)            As
soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by theany
Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Administrative
Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative 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.

 

(e)            (i) Any
Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative
Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.
In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Administrative
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested
by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative
Agent as will enable the BorrowerBorrowers
or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender 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 2.20(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required
if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. If any form or certification
previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.20(e) or Section 2.20(g) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate
in any respect with respect to a Recipient, such Recipient shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration,
obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Administrative
Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification
if it is legally eligible to do so.

(C) any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative

U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable
law to permit the BorrowerBorrowers

Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or
1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to the Administrative
Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by
the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative

of this clause (D) and paragraph (g), hereof, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date
of this Agreement.

 

(f)            If
the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines, in its discretion, exercised in good faith, that it has received
a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by an indemnifying party or with respect to which an indemnifying party
has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20, it shall pay over such refund to the indemnifying party
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the indemnifying party under this Section 2.20
with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative
Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant
Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the indemnifying party, upon the request of the Administrative
Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the indemnifying party (plus any interest, penalties
or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank
in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.20(f), in no event will the Administrative Agent, any Lender
or any Issuing Bank be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph to the extent the payment
of such amount would place the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in a less favorable net after-Tax position
than it would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.
Nothing in this Section 2.20(f) shall be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing
Bank to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to theany
Borrower or any other Person.

payments to be received on its own behalf) and IRS Form W-8IMY (for all other payments), establishing that the BorrowerBorrowers
can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States, including
Taxes imposed under FATCA.

 

(h)           For
purposes of this Section 2.20, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable Law”
includes FATCA.

 

Section 2.21   Assignment
of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. (a) In the event (i) any Lender or any Issuing
Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or any Issuing Bank
delivers a notice described in Section 2.15, (iii) theany
Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of
any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20, (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment,
waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by the Administrative
Borrower that requires the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby and such amendment, waiver
or other modification is consented to by the Required Lenders, or (v) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, in each
case, the Administrative Borrower may, at its sole
expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)(v)),
upon notice to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or such
Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04),
all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20,
its rights pursuant to Section 9.05 in respect of the period in which it was a Lender (and its rights in respect of
any outstanding Letter of Credit issued by such Lender)) and obligations under this Agreement (or, in the case of clause (iv) above,
all of its interests, rights and obligation with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related
consent, amendment, waiver or other modification) to an Eligible Assignee (which Eligible Assignee (x) may be an Affiliated
Lender only if Section 9.04(k) is complied with and (y) may not be the Administrative
Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof) that shall assume such assigned obligations and, with respect to clause (iv) above,
shall consent to such requested amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents (which assignee may be another Lender,
if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or
regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) the Administrative
Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being
assigned, of each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender), which consents shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed,
and (z) the Borrower orBorrowers
or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender or the affected Issuing Bank in immediately available funds
an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or L/C
Disbursements of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, respectively, plus all Fees and other amounts accrued for the account of such
Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder with respect thereto (including any amounts under Sections 2.14, 2.16
and 2.20; provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted
in such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section 2.14, notice under Section 2.15,
entitlement to receive amounts pursuant to Section 2.20 or being a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, cease to
cause such Lender or such Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in
return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.15, or cease to result in amounts being
payable under Section 2.20, or cease to cause such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be (including
as a result of any action taken by such Lender or such Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (b) below), or if such
Lender or such Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.14 in respect of such
circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.15 or shall waive its right to further payments
under Section 2.20 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent
or other modification, as the case may be, or shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender, then such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall
not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the
event that a Lender that is being replaced pursuant to this Section 2.21(a) does not execute an Assignment and
Acceptance Agreement (or an Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance Agreement) within one (1) Business Day after being
requested to do so, such assignment shall be deemed to have occurred on such Business Day without such Lender’s execution
of such documentation but after satisfaction of the other conditions set forth herein.

 

    	 	79	 

     

    

 

(b)            If
(i) any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall request compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or any
Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15 or (iii) theany
Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of
any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20, then such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall use reasonable
efforts (which shall not require such Lender or such Issuing Bank to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense
or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed
by it to be significant) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the Administrative
Borrower or (y) to assign its rights and delegate and transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches
or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14
or enable it to withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.15 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20,
as the case may be, in the future. The BorrowerBorrowers
hereby agreesagree
to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or any Issuing Bank in connection with any such filing or assignment,
delegation and transfer.

 

Section 2.22     Defaulting
Lender. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting
Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

 

(i)            Waivers
and Amendments. Such 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 the definition of Required Lenders and in Section 9.08.

 

    	 	80	 

     

    

 

(ii)           Defaulting
Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account
of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received
by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.06 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 such Defaulting
Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting
Lender to the Issuing Banks and Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, on a pro rata basis to cash collateralize each Issuing
Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.22(d) and to
pay to the Swing Line Lender its Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender; fourth, as the Administrative
Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting
Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth,
if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Administrative
Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential
future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’
and Swing Line Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of
Credit and Swing Line Loans, if any and as applicable, issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.22(d) (in
the case of Letters of Credit); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks as a result
of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Issuing Bank against such Defaulting Lender
as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default
or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the BorrowerBorrowers
as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by theany
Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement;
and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that
if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting
Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued
at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely
to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis
prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as
all Loans and L/C Exposure are held by the Lenders of the applicable Class pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under
the applicable Class without giving effect to Section 2.22(a)(iv). 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 2.22(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each
Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

 

(iii)          Certain
Fees. (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender
is a Defaulting Lender (and the BorrowerBorrowers
shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

 

(B)            Each
Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive L/C Participation Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender
only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash
collateral pursuant to Section 2.22(d).

 

(C)            With
respect to any L/C Participation Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above,
the BorrowerBorrowers
shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with
respect to such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit that have been reallocated
to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank the amount of any such
fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure to such
Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

 

    	 	81	 

     

    

 

(iv)          Reallocation
of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Swing Line Loans and Letters
of Credit shall be reallocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective
Pro Rata Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such
reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any such Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject to Section 2.28, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or
release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender,
including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such
reallocation.

 

(v)           Cash
Collateral and Repayment of Swing Line Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot,
or can only partially, be effected, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, cash collateralize any Issuing Bank’s
Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.22(d) and repay any Swing Line Lender’s
Fronting Exposure by repaying the Swing Line Loans such that such Fronting Exposure is reduced to zero.

 

(b)            Defaulting
Lender Cure. If the Administrative Borrower,
the Administrative Agent, each Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer 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 at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions
as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters
of Credit to be held pro rata by the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with the Revolving Credit Commitments (without giving
effect to Section 2.22(a)(iv)), whereupon such 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 theany
Borrower 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 Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or
release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

 

(c)            New
Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) no Swing Line Lender shall
be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any
Letter of Credit except in accordance with Section 2.24(a), in each case unless it is satisfied that the related exposure
will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders or (in the case of Letters of Credit) cash
collateral will be provided by the BorrowerBorrowers
in accordance with Section 2.24(j), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit
or newly made Swing Line Loan shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.22(a)(iv) (and
Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).

 

(d)           Cash
Collateral. (i) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Business Day following
the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the BorrowerBorrowers
shall cash collateralize such Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving
effect to Section 2.22(a)(iv) and any cash collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less
than the Minimum Collateral Amount.

 

    	 	82	 

     

    

 

(ii)            TheEach
Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent,
for the benefit of each Issuing Bank, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash collateral as
security for the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant
to Section 2.24(j). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that cash collateral is subject to any right
or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank as herein provided, or that the total amount of
such cash collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the BorrowerBorrowers
will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional cash collateral in
an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

 

(iii)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, cash collateral provided under this Section 2.22 in respect of
Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect
of Letters of Credit (including, as to cash collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation)
for which the cash collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for
herein.

 

(iv)          Cash
collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be
required to be held as cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.22 following (i) the elimination of the applicable
Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination
by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank that there exists excess cash collateral; provided that, subject to this
Section 2.22 the Person providing cash collateral and such Issuing Bank may agree that cash collateral shall be held
to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; and provided, further that to the extent that
such cash collateral was provided by the BorrowerBorrowers,
such cash collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

 

Section 2.23    Swing
Line Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make Swing Line
Loans to the BorrowerBorrowers,
on a joint and several basis as between the Borrowers, from time to time prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (x) the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding Swing Line Loans exceeding the total Swing Line Commitment, (y) the outstanding Swing Line Loans of
the Swing Line Lender exceeding the Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Commitment or (z) the Aggregate Revolving Credit
Exposure exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to
make a Swing Line Loan to refinance an outstanding Swing Line Borrowing. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the BorrowerBorrowers
may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swing Line Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.23
or elsewhere in this Agreement, in the event that a Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swing Line Lender shall
be required to issue or extend any Swing Line Loan, unless any Fronting Exposure in respect thereof, after giving effect to the
extension of such Swing Line Loan, may be reallocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with Section 2.22(a)(iv) or,
if such reallocation is not available in accordance with such Section, the Swing Line Lender has entered into arrangements satisfactory
to it, in its sole discretion, and the BorrowerBorrowers
to eliminate the Swing Line Lender’s risk with respect to the participation in Swing Line Loans by all such Defaulting Lenders,
which may include prepaying such Swing Line Loans while any Fronting Exposure exists in relation thereto.

 

    	 	83	 

     

    

 

(b)            To
request a Swing Line Borrowing, the Administrative
Borrower shall notify the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of such request by not later than 1:00 p.m., New
York City time on the day of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing by delivering a Swing Line Borrowing Request. Each such notice and
Swing Line Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the requested date (which shall be a Business Day),
(ii) the amount of the requested Swing Line Borrowing, (iii) the term of such Swing Line Loan and (iv) the location
and number of the applicable Borrower’s account
to which funds are to be disbursed. The Swing Line Lender shall make each Swing Line Loan in accordance with Section 2.02
on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of
the applicable Borrower.

 

(c)            Immediately
upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to such Revolving
Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swing Line Loan. The Swing Line Lender shall deliver the Swing Line Borrowing
Request to the Administrative Agent which shall promptly deliver such Swing Line Borrowing Request to each Revolving Credit Lender.
Each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice of the Swing Line Borrowing Request,
to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage
of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its respective 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 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 2.02 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply,
mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the 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 (c), and thereafter payments
by the BorrowerBorrowers
in respect of such Swing Line Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swing Line Lender. Any amounts received
by a Swing Line Lender from theany
Borrower (or any other party on behalf of theany
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 remitted promptly to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be remitted
promptly 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; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid
to the Swing Line Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded
to the BorrowerBorrowers
for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swing Line Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the BorrowerBorrowers
of any default in the payment thereof otherwise expressly provided herein.

 

(d)            At
any time after any Revolving Credit Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line
Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit
Lender its Pro Rata Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender. If any payment received by
the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned to theany
Borrower by the Swing Line Lender under any circumstances (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line
Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Pro Rata Percentage thereof on demand
of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at
a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of
the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and
the termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.24     Letters
of Credit. (a) General. The Administrative
Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (which may be at the request of another Loan Party), in a form reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time on or prior to the date
immediately preceding the termination of the L/C Commitment in accordance with Section 2.09(a). This Section shall
not be construed to impose an obligation upon any Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.24 or elsewhere
in this Agreement, in the event that a Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue
or extend any Letter of Credit, as applicable, unless any Fronting Exposure in respect thereof, after giving effect to the issuance
of such Letter of Credit, may be reallocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with Section 2.22(a)(iv) or,
if such reallocation is not available in accordance with such Section, each Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements satisfactory
to it, in its sole discretion, and the Administrative
Borrower to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit by all such Defaulting
Lenders, which may include by cash collateralizing (in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount) each such Defaulting
Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each Letter of Credit issued or outstanding while such Defaulting Lender remains a Defaulting
Lender.

 

(b)            Notice
of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions.  (i) In order to request the issuance

Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (not later than 1:00 p.m. (New
York City time) at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent
may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case
may be) an L/C Extension Notice together with such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit application form (if any), appropriately
completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Administrative
Borrower and including agreed-upon draft language for such Letter of Credit reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank,
or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, 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) below),
the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, the documents to be presented by such beneficiary
in case of any drawing thereunder, the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing
thereunder, the nature of the proposed amendment (in the case of an amendment), any Letter of Credit application form required
by the applicable Issuing Bank and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such 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
theeach
Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (x) the
Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment and (y) the aggregate face amount
of Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank shall not exceed its L/C Commitment.

 

    	 	85	 

     

    

 

(ii)           No
Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

 

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

 

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

 

(C)            except
as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less
than $10,000;

 

(D)            such
Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars; or

 

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

 

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

 

(c)            Expiration
Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of the date one year after the
date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date, unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided, however, that a Letter
of Credit may, upon the request of the Administrative
Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of
12 months or less (but not beyond the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date) unless
the applicable Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days (or such longer period as may be specified in
such Letter of Credit and as agreed by the Issuing Bank) prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit
will not be renewed.

 

(d)            Participations.
By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders,
such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each such Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a
participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be
drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of
the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing
Bank and not reimbursed by the BorrowerBorrowers
(or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due as provided
in Section 2.02(f). Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations
pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance
whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made
without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

 

    	 	86	 

     

    

 

(e)            Reimbursement.
If any Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on
the immediately following Business Day after theany
Borrower shall have received notice from such Issuing Bank that payment of such draft will be made; provided that if the
Issuing Bank notifies theany
Borrower of such L/C Disbursement prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of such L/C Disbursement, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on
such date.

 

(f)            Obligations
Absolute. TheEach
Borrower’s obligations to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) above 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 any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;

 

(ii)           any
amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

 

(iii)          the
existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that theany
Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, theany
Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any
Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection
with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

 

(iv)          any
draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect
or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

 

(v)           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; and

 

(vi)          any
other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the applicable Issuing Bank, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any
other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for
the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of theany
Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

 

    	 	87	 

     

    

 

Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of the BorrowerBorrowers
hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Issuing
Bank. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse such Issuing Bank from liability to the BorrowerBorrowers
to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the BorrowerBorrowers
to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the BorrowerBorrowers
that are determined in a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Issuing
Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter
of Credit comply with the terms thereof. It is further understood and agreed that the applicable Issuing Bank may accept documents
that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information
to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, (i) such Issuing Bank’s
exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including
reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder
equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient
in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document
presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or
untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such
Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Issuing Bank.

 

(g)            Disbursement
Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting
to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification,
confirmed by fax, to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative
Borrower of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided
that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower
of itsBorrowers of their obligation
to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

 

(h)            Interim
Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank,
then, unless the BorrowerBorrowers
shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of such
Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement, to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment
by the BorrowerBorrowers
or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in Section 2.02(f), at the rate per annum
that would apply to such amount if such amount were an ABR Revolving Loan.

 

(i)            Resignation
or Removal of an Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to
the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Administrative
Borrower, and may be removed at any time by the Administrative
Borrower by notice to such Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders, in each case, irrespective
of the appointment of a successor Issuing Bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender
that shall agree to serve as a successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests,
rights and obligations of such retiring or removed Issuing Bank (other than with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such retiring
or removed Issuing Bank). At the time such removal or resignation shall become effective, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees due to such Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii). The acceptance of any
appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor,
in a form satisfactory to the Administrative Borrower
and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have
all the rights and obligations of such previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents other than with
respect to Letters of Credit issued by such retiring Issuing Bank and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents
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 removal of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the
retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal,
but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j)            Cash
Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall, on the Business Day itthe
Administrative Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations
in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit
of the amount to be deposited, deposit in an account with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders,
an amount in cash equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash will become
effective immediately, and such deposit will become immediately payable in immediately available funds, without demand or notice
of any kind, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in paragraph (g) or (h) of Article VII.
Such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. The Collateral
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 in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option and
sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments
shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Administrative Agent to
reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction
of the reimbursement obligations of the BorrowerBorrowers
for the L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent
of Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate
undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit), be applied to satisfy the Obligations. If the Borrower
isBorrowers are required to provide
an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied
as aforesaid) shall be returned to the applicable
Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

 

(k)            Additional
Issuing Banks. The Administrative Borrower
may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement,
subject to reporting requirements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with respect to issuances, amendments, extensions
and terminations of Letters of Credit by such additional issuing bank. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this
paragraph (k) shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters
of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply
to such Issuing Bank and such Lender. Upon the appointment of an additional Issuing Bank, the BorrowerBorrowers,
the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks may amend this Agreement without the consent of any other party hereto to change
the L/C Commitments of the Issuing Banks.

Section 2.25     Incremental
Facilities. (a) The BorrowerBorrowers
(on a joint and several basis as between the Borrowers) may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from
time to time, request Incremental Loan Commitments from one or more Incremental Term Lenders or Incremental Revolving Lenders,
as applicable, all of which must be Eligible Assignees (which Eligible Assignee may not be the Administrative
Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof but may, solely in the case of Incremental Term Loan Commitments, be an Affiliated Lender or an
Affiliate that becomes an Affiliated Lender as a result of such transaction (but only if Section 9.04(k) is complied
with)), so long as at the time such Incremental Loan Commitments become effective and, in the case of Incremental Term Loans, at
the time any Incremental Loans in respect thereof are incurred (after giving effect on a pro forma basis to the incurrence of such
Incremental Term Loans, and in each case assuming for the purpose of this calculation that the proceeds of such Incremental Term
Loans are not treated as Unrestricted Cash for such purpose and assuming for such purpose that any such Incremental Revolving Loan
Commitments are fully drawn in the form of Loans and that the proceeds thereof are not treated as Unrestricted Cash for such purpose),
the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Loan Commitments and (without duplication) Incremental Loans does not exceed
the Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount. Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Loan Commitments
being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $2,500,000 and a minimum amount of $10,000,000, such lesser amount equal
to the remaining Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount or such other amounts as the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree to),
(ii) the date (an “Increased Amount Date”) on which such Incremental Loan Commitments are requested
to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice
(or such other number of days as the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree to)) and (iii) whether such Incremental Term
Loan Commitments are commitments to make term loans with terms different from any other then existing Term Loans (“Other
Term Loans”).

 

(b)            The
BorrowerBorrowers
may seek Incremental Loan Commitments from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate
in its sole discretion) or any other bank, financial institution or other institutional lender or investor (each of which must
be an Eligible Assignee) that agrees to provide any portion of Incremental Loan Commitments (each, an “Additional Incremental
Lender”) (provided that (i) the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Bank shall
have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such Lender’s or Additional Incremental Lender’s
making such Incremental Loan Commitments to the extent such consent, if any, would be required under Section 9.04(b) for
an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Incremental Lender, (ii) an Affiliated
Lender may provide Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Term Loans only if Section 9.04(k) is complied
with, but may not provide Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments or Incremental Revolving Loans and (iii) the Administrative
Borrower and its Subsidiaries may not make Incremental Loan Commitments or Incremental Loans). The BorrowerBorrowers
and each Incremental Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement
and/or Incremental Revolving Loan Assumption Agreement, as applicable, and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent
shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Loan Commitment of each Incremental Lender. The terms and provisions of the
Incremental Revolving Loans shall be identical to those of the Revolving Loans. All Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments shall
be documented solely as an increase to the Revolving Credit Commitments and all Incremental Revolving Loans shall be identical
to all Revolving Loans, other than in respect of any arrangement, commitment or upfront fees payable to any Incremental Revolving
Lenders or any arranger appointed in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Incremental Term Loans (x) shall
be secured on a pari passu basis with the Revolving Loans, (y) shall not be guaranteed by any person that is not a
Guarantor and (z) shall not be secured by any assets which do not constitute Collateral, (ii) the final maturity date
of any Incremental Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Revolving Maturity date, (iii) such Incremental Term Loans do not
mature or have scheduled amortization or payments of principal (other than, in any case, amortization at a rate of no more than
1% per annum) prior to the date that is the Latest Maturity Date at the time such Incremental Term Loans are incurred, (iv) no
Incremental Term Loans shall have the benefit of any financial maintenance covenant more restrictive than the covenant set forth
in Section 6.10 hereof unless the Revolving Loans have the benefit of such financial maintenance covenant on the same terms,
(v) the definitive documentation for such Incremental Term Loans shall not include other covenants, (excluding interest rate,
original issue discounts, fees and prepayment premiums) taken as a whole, that are materially more onerous to the BorrowerBorrowers
and the Guarantors than the covenants for the Revolving Loans provided for in this Agreement, taken as a whole, unless the Revolving
Loans have the benefit of such covenants on the same terms and (vi) the other terms and conditions applicable to such Incremental
Term Loans (other than provisions related to maturity, amortization, interest margins, fees or prepayments) may not differ from
those with respect to the Revolving Loans, as applicable, unless such terms and conditions are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan Assumption
Agreement or Incremental Revolving Loan Assumption Agreement, as applicable. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon
the effectiveness of any Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Incremental Revolving Loan Assumption Agreement, as applicable,
this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the
Incremental Loan Commitment and the Incremental Loans evidenced thereby, and the Administrative Agent and the BorrowerBorrowers
may revise this Agreement to evidence such amendments.

 

    	 	90	 

     

    

 

(c)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no Incremental Loan Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.25 unless on the date of
such effectiveness, (i) the Administrative Borrower
is in Financial Covenant Compliance (after giving effect on a pro forma basis to the incurrence of any such Incremental Term Loans,
and in each case assuming for the purpose of this calculation that the proceeds of such Incremental Term Loans are not treated
as Unrestricted Cash for such purpose and assuming for such purpose that any such Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments are fully
drawn in the form of Loans and that the proceeds thereof are not treated as Unrestricted Cash for such purpose), (ii) the
conditions set forth in Sections 4.01(b) and 4.01(c) shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall
have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Administrative
Borrower; provided that, if the proceeds of any Incremental Term Loan Commitments are being used to finance a Permitted
Acquisition or Permitted Drop-Down Acquisition, (x) the reference in Section 4.01(b) to the accuracy of the
representations and warranties shall refer to the accuracy of only the representations and warranties that would constitute Specified
Representations and the representations and warranties in the relevant acquisition agreement the failure of which to be true shall
permit the buyer not to consummate the Permitted Acquisition or Permitted Drop-Down Acquisition, (y) Section 4.01(c) shall
be limited to there being no Default or Event of Default under paragraph (b), (c), (g) or (h) of
Article VII having occurred and continuing after giving effect to such Incremental Loan Commitments and (z) the
date of determination for purposes of testing Financial Covenant Compliance under clause (i) above shall be deemed
to be the date on which the definitive agreements for such Permitted Acquisition or Permitted Drop-Down Acquisition are entered
into, (iii) except as otherwise specified in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement and/or Incremental
Revolving Loan Assumption Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing
certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent with those delivered on the Original Closing Date
under Section 4.02, (iv) the Administrative Agent and each applicable Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender)
shall have received all fees and expenses owed under this Agreement (including in respect of such Incremental Loan Commitments);
and (v) the BorrowerBorrowers
shall have satisfied all Mortgage Modification Requirements.

 

(d)            Each
of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Administrative
Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Revolving Loans, when originally
made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Revolving Loans, on a pro rata basis. This may be accomplished by requiring
each outstanding Eurodollar Borrowing to be converted into an ABR Borrowing on the date of each Incremental Revolving Loan, or
by allocating a portion of each Incremental Revolving Loan to each outstanding Eurodollar Borrowing on a pro rata basis. Any conversion
of Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans required by the preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 2.16. If any Incremental
Revolving Loan is to be allocated to an existing Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing, then the interest rate thereon for
such Interest Period and the other economic consequences thereof shall be as set forth in the applicable Incremental Revolving
Loan Assumption Agreement.

 

    	 	91	 

     

    

 

(e)            On
any Increased Amount Date on which Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing
terms and conditions, (i) each of the existing Revolving Credit Lenders shall assign to each of the Incremental Revolving
Lenders, and each of the Incremental Revolving Lenders shall purchase from each of the existing Revolving Credit Lenders, at the
principal amount thereof, such interests in the outstanding Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line
Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date that will result in, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases,
such Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans being held by existing Revolving Credit Lenders
and Incremental Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to the addition
of such Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments to the Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) each Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment
shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Credit Commitment and each Loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes,
a Revolving Loan and have the same terms as any existing Revolving Loan and (iii) each Incremental Revolving Lender shall
become a Lender with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments and all matters relating thereto.

 

(f)            The
proceeds of any Incremental Loans shall be used for the purposes specified in the introductory statement to this Agreement.

 

Section 2.26     Extension
Amendments. (a) The BorrowerBorrowers
(on a joint and several basis as between the Borrowers) may at any time and from time to time request that all or
a portion of any of the Commitments or the Loans (including any Extended Loans), existing at the time of such request (any such
Commitment, an “Existing Commitment” and any such existing outstanding Loans, the “Existing
Loans”) be converted to extend, in the case of Commitments, the termination date thereof and, in the case of Loans,
the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion thereof (any such Existing Commitment
which has been so extended, an “Extended Commitment” and any such Existing Loan whose scheduled maturity
date(s) has or have been so extended, in the case of a Term Loan, an “Extended Term Loan”, in the
case of a Revolving Loan, an “Extended Revolving Loan” and collectively, the “Extended Loans”)
and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.26. In order to establish any Extended Commitment, the
Administrative Borrower shall provide a notice to
the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Commitment)
(an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Commitment to be established,
which terms (other than as provided in clause (c) below) shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Commitment
from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Commitment”) except (x) all or any of
the final maturity/termination dates of such Extended Commitment shall be delayed to later dates than the final maturity/termination
dates of the Specified Existing Commitment, (y) (A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Commitment may
be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Specified Existing Commitment and/or (B) additional fees may be payable
to the Lenders providing such Extended Commitment in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins contemplated by the preceding
clause (A) and (z) the commitment fee, if any, with respect to the Extended Commitment may be higher or lower
than the commitment fee, if any, for the Specified Existing Commitment, in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Extension
Amendment; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.26 or otherwise, (1) no
Extended Commitment shall be secured by or receive the benefit of any collateral, credit support or security that does not secure
or support the Existing Commitments, (2) the repayment (other than in connection with a permanent voluntary prepayment or
a repayment at the final scheduled maturity of any Term Loans that have not become Extended Term Loans) and the mandatory prepayment
of any Extended Term Loans shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other outstanding Term Loans and Other Term Loans; provided,

(b)            The
Administrative Borrower shall provide the applicable
Extension Request at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Class of Existing

into Extended Loans shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the
date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Specified Existing Commitment and/or Existing Loans that it has elected
to convert into an Extended Commitment or Extended Loans, as the case may be. In the event that the aggregate amount of the Specified
Existing Commitment and/or Existing Loans subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Commitments and/or Extended
Loans requested pursuant to the Extension Request, the Specified Existing Commitment and/or Existing Loans subject to Extension
Elections shall be converted to Extended Commitments and/or Extended Loans on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Specified
Existing Commitments and/or Existing Loans included in each such Extension Election.

 

(c)            Extended
Commitments and Extended Loans shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”)
to this Agreement (which may include amendments to provisions related to maturity, amortization, interest margins, fees or prepayments

shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Commitments and/or Extended
Loans established thereby) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, and the Extending Lenders. No Extension Amendment
shall provide for any tranche of Extended Commitments or tranche of Extended Loans in an aggregate principal amount that is less
than $50,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent; provided,
further, that (x) no Extension Amendment may provide for any Extended Commitment or Extended Loans to be secured by
any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that does not also secure the Existing Commitments or Existing Loans and (y) the
other terms and conditions applicable to such Extended Loans or Extended Commitments (other than provisions related to maturity,
amortization, interest margins, fees or prepayments (which may provide for a less than ratable amount of any mandatory prepayment
vis-à-vis the Existing Loans and Existing Commitments but not a more than ratable amount of any mandatory prepayment vis-à-vis
the Existing Loans and Existing Commitments) may not differ from those with respect to the Existing Loans or Existing Commitments,
as applicable, unless such terms and conditions only apply after the Latest Maturity Date or, if more favorable to the Extending
Lenders than the corresponding terms are to the Lenders under the Specified Existing Commitments, may apply to such Specified Existing
Commitments and the Loans related thereto. It is understood and agreed that each Lender has consented for all purposes requiring
its consent, and shall at the effective time thereof be deemed to consent to each amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents authorized by this Section 2.26 and the arrangements described above in connection therewith. In connection
with any Extension Amendment, if requested by the Administrative Agent, the BorrowerBorrowers
shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as to the enforceability of such Extension
Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, the security interests in respect of the Extended Loans and Extended Commitments
and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby and that the existing security interest of the Collateral
Agent shall not be adversely affected thereby.

(d)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) on any date on which any Existing Commitment is converted to extend
the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with clause (a) above (an “Extension Date”),
in the case of the Specified Existing Commitment of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such Specified Existing
Commitment shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Commitment so converted by
such Lender on such date, and such Extended Commitments shall be established as a separate Commitment and Class from the Specified
Existing Commitment and from any other Existing Commitments (together with any other Extended Commitment so established on such
date) and (B) if, on any Extension Date, any Revolving Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under this Agreement,
such Loans (and any related participations) shall be deemed to be allocated as Existing Loans (and related participations) and
Extended Revolving Loans (and related participations) in the same proportion as such Extending Lender’s applicable Specified
Existing Commitments bear to the applicable Extended Commitments so converted by such Lender on such date.

 

(e)            If,
in connection with any proposed Extension Amendment, any Lender declines to consent to the applicable extension on the terms and
by the deadline set forth in the applicable Extension Request (each such Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”)
then the Administrative Borrower may, upon notice
to the Administrative and the Non-Extending Lender, replace such Non-Extending Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender
shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 9.04 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to
be paid by the BorrowerBorrowers
in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided, that neither
the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the BorrowerBorrowers
to obtain a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide Loans
and/or a commitment on the terms set forth in such Extension Amendment; and provided, further, that all obligations
of the BorrowerBorrowers
owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full at par by the assignee
Lender to such Non-Extending Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance. In connection with any such replacement under
this Section 2.26, if the Non-Extending Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed
Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (x) the date
on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (y) the
date as of which all obligations of the BorrowerBorrowers
owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full in cash by the assignee
Lender to such Non-Extending Lender, then such Non-Extending Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment
and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Administrative
Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation
on behalf of such Non-Extending Lender.

 

    	 	94

Section 2.26 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.17, Section 2.18 or Section 9.08
to the contrary.

Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Article VII, for purposes of determining whether an Event of Default has occurred
under the Financial Covenants, any equity contribution (in the form of preferred, common or subordinated equity other than Disqualified

are required to be delivered for that fiscal quarter will, at the request of the Administrative
Borrower, be included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA solely for the purposes of determining compliance with the Financial
Covenants at the end of such fiscal quarter and any subsequent period that includes such fiscal quarter (any such equity contribution,
a “Specified Equity Contribution”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (a) there shall
be no pro forma reduction in Indebtedness with the proceeds of any Specified Equity Contribution for purposes of determining compliance
with the Financial Covenants for the fiscal quarter in respect of which such Specified Equity Contribution is made, (b) the
amounts of any Specified Equity Contribution shall not exceed the Cure Amount, (c) Specified Equity Contributions shall be

no more than five (5) Specified Equity Contributions (in the aggregate) may be made during the term of this Agreement. “Cure
Amount” shall mean an amount which, if added to Consolidated EBITDA for the Applicable Period in respect of which
a Financial Covenants default occurred, would cause the Financial Covenants for such Applicable Period to be satisfied and shall
not be any more than the amount so required (it being understood and agreed that for the purposes of calculating such amount, no
effect shall be given to any prepayment of Loans with such proceeds or to any other reduction of Total Debt on account of the receipt
of such proceeds).

 

Article VIII

 

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent; Etc.

 

Each Lender and each
Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent are referred to collectively as the “Agents”) its agent hereunder and under the Loan Documents
and authorizes the Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the
terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this
Article VIII are solely for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and the BorrowerBorrowers
shall have no 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
or Collateral Agent, as applicable, 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Agents are hereby expressly authorized to (i) execute any and all documents (including releases and the Security Documents
(which Security Documents shall contain indemnity and expense reimbursement provisions for the benefit of the Collateral Agent
that are no more onerous to the Lenders than the provisions contained in the Security Documents as of the Fourth Amendment Effective
Date and shall be binding on the Lenders)) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto,
as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents 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.

 

    	 	132	 

     

    

 

The Person serving
as the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral 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 an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders”
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as an Agent hereunder
in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the
financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Administrative
Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof (subject to securities law and other requirements of law) as if it were not
an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

 

Neither Agent shall
have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) neither Agent shall
be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) neither
Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and
powers expressly contemplated hereby or under any Loan Document that such Agent is instructed in writing to exercise by the Required
Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided for herein
or in the other Loan Documents); provided that neither Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or
the opinion of its counsel, (i) may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable
law or (ii) may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification
or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law, and (c) except as expressly set forth
in the Loan Documents, neither Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information
relating to the Administrative Borrower or any of
the Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent or any
of its Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it 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 such Agent
shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents)
or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default
or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by the Administrative
Borrower or a Lender, and neither Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement,
warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any
certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default
or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement,
instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan
Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

 

Each 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)
reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each Agent
may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and reasonably 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 any Issuing Bank, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank
unless such Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the making of such
Loan or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may
be counsel for the Loan Parties), 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.

Each 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 it. Each 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 the preceding paragraphs shall apply to
any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities
in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities as well as activities as Agent. Neither Agent shall 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 such Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

 

Either Agent may resign
at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative
Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Administrative
Borrower, to appoint a successor which shall be any financial institution with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate
of any such financial institution, that has a combined capital and surplus and undivided profits of not less than $500,000,000.
If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days
after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing
Banks, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a financial institution with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of
any such financial institution. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence by the
30th day after the date such notice of resignation was given by such Agent, such Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become
effective (and such Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder) and the Lenders shall thereafter perform
all the duties of such Agent hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint
a successor Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as the case may be. Any such resignation by such Agent hereunder shall
also constitute, to the extent applicable, its resignation as a Swing Line Lender and as an Issuing Bank, in which case such resigning
Agent (x) shall not be required to extend any further Swing Line Loans or issue any further Letters of Credit 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. Upon the acceptance of its appointment
as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (if not already
discharged therefrom as provided above). The fees payable by the BorrowerBorrowers
to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Administrative
Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and
Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 acting as Agent.

 

Each Lender and each
Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents 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 each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance
upon the Agents 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
or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

 

    	 	134	 

     

    

 

Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Loan Document, each of the Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents
and the Co-Documentation Agents are named as such for recognition purposes only, and in their respective capacities as such shall
have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; it being understood
and agreed that each of the Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents and the Co-Documentation Agents shall be entitled to all indemnification
and reimbursement rights in favor of the Agents provided herein and in the other Loan Documents, including under Section 9.05
hereunder. Without limitation of the foregoing, none of the Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents and the Co-Documentation Agents
in their respective capacities as such shall, by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, have any fiduciary relationship
in respect of any Lender, theany
Borrower, any other Loan Party, or any other Person.

 

In case of the pendency
of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Administrative
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, each Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable
as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether such Agent shall have made any demand on the Loan
Parties) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (a) to file and
prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans 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, the Issuing Banks and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Lenders and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and Agents under Section 9.05)
allowed in such judicial proceeding and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on
any such claims and to distribute the same and, in either case, any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator
or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each other
Secured Party to make such payments to such Agent and, in the event that such Agent shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to such Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of such Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due such Agent under Section 9.05.

 

    	 	135	 

     

    

 

The Secured Parties
irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (i) to release any Lien on any property granted
to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (x) upon termination of all Commitments and payment in full of
all Obligations (other than contingent reimbursement and indemnification obligations to the extent no unsatisfied claim with respect
thereto has been asserted), the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit that have been
cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank or as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the
applicable Issuing Bank have been made) and the termination of (and making of all payments due by the Loan Parties in connection
with) all Secured Hedging Agreements (or the making of other arrangements reasonably acceptable to the applicable Qualified Counterparty),
(y) that is (i) owned by, or is an Equity Interest in, a Restricted Subsidiary that (A) is converted into an Unrestricted
Subsidiary in accordance with the terms hereof or (B) ceases to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary as a result of a transaction
permitted hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof (provided that, the release of any Lien pursuant to this subclause
(B) on the property of or Equity Interests in any Person that was a Restricted Subsidiary on the Fourth Amendment Effective
Date shall only be permitted if at the time such Person ceases to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary (1) no Event of Default
pursuant to paragraphs (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing or would otherwise result
therefrom, (2) both immediately before and after the time on which the definitive documentation for the transaction pursuant
to which such Person shall cease to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary was entered and giving pro forma effect thereto, no Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or result therefrom and (3) after giving pro forma effect to such
release and the consummation of the transaction that causes such Person to cease to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary, the
Administrative Borrower is deemed to have made a new
Investment in such Person (which such Person shall, for purposes of determining the permissibility of such Investment, be deemed
not to be a Loan Party) in an amount equal to the portion of the fair market value of the net assets of such Person attributable
to theany
Borrower’s or any other Loan Party’s equity interest therein and such Investment is permitted pursuant to Section 6.04)
or (ii) sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted under the Loan
Documents, in each case to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Administrative
Borrower (other than sales to Affiliates as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof),
or (z) subject to Section 9.08, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders or all
Lenders (as applicable); (ii) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any
Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(i); and (iii) release
any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Security Documents if such Person
ceases to be a Guarantor as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder (including the sale or other disposition of the Equity
Interests of any Person, the conversion of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor into an Unrestricted Subsidiary or if such
Guarantor ceases to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary pursuant to a transaction permitted hereunder in accordance with the
terms hereof); provided that, such release pursuant to this clause (iii) of any Person that was a Guarantor
on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date Guarantor as a result of such Person ceasing to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary shall
only be permitted if at the time such Person ceases to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary (1) no Event of Default pursuant
to paragraphs (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing or would otherwise result therefrom,
(2) both immediately before and after the time on which the definitive documentation for the transaction pursuant to which
such Person shall cease to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary was entered and giving pro forma effect thereto, no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or result therefrom and (3) after giving pro forma effect to such release
and the consummation of the transaction that causes such Person to cease to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary, the Administrative
Borrower is deemed to have made a new Investment in such Person for purposes of Section 6.04 in an amount equal to
the portion of the fair market value of the net assets of such Person attributable to theany
Borrower’s or any other Loan Party’s equity interest therein and such Investment is permitted pursuant to Section 6.04.
Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority
to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property pursuant to this paragraph or to release any Guarantor
from the obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Security Document. The Collateral 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 Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate
prepared by theany
Borrower in connection therewith, nor shall the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor
or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

 

Anything contained
in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the BorrowerBorrowers,
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any
right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, it being understood
and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative
Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof
and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit
of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement
action by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including, without
limitation, pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), the Collateral
Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or
otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition
and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their
respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from the Required Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and
making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition,
to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral
Agent at such sale or other disposition.

 

    	 	136	 

     

    

 

 

To the extent required
by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable
withholding Tax. If any payment has been made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding Tax
being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the IRS or any other
Governmental Authority, or the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly
withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly
executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption
from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent
fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax, or otherwise, including any penalties or
interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred,
whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the IRS or such other Governmental Authority.

similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). The Platform is provided “as is”
and “as available.” The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and their respective Related Parties do not warrant
the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any
kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent or any of their respective Related Parties in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event

Borrower or any of its SubsidiariesSubsidiary,

or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of theany

TheEach
Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent will make available to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank materials
and/or information provided by or on behalf of theany
Borrower hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on the
Platform and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to
receive Material Non-Public Information with respect to theany
Borrower, its Subsidiariesany
Subsidiary or any of their securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). TheEach
Borrower hereby agrees that (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and
conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently
on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the BorrowerBorrowers
shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, Lenders, and Issuing Banks to treat such Borrower
Materials as not containing any Material Non-Public Information with respect to theany
Borrower, its Subsidiariesany
Subsidiary or any of their securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws (provided,
however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.16);
(y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform
designated as “Public Investor;” and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to
treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform
not marked as “Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Borrower Materials shall be marked “PUBLIC”,
unless the Administrative Borrower notifies the Administrative
Agent promptly that any such document contains Material Non-Public Information: (1) the Loan Documents and (2) notification
of changes in the terms of the Loan Documents.

 

Each Public Lender
agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private
Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public
Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United
States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Communications that are not made available through the “Public
Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain Material Non-Public Information with respect to theany
Borrower, its Subsidiariesany
Subsidiary or any of their securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws.

 

The Administrative
Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute
effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that
receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform
shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees
to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s
e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to
such e-mail address.

 

Nothing herein shall
prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to give any notice or other
communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

Subsidiary or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance
with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws) and all applicable
tax forms;

 

(vi)          no
such assignment shall be made (A) to the Administrative
Borrower or any of the Administrative Borrower’s
Affiliates or Subsidiaries (other than an assignment to (x) an Affiliated Lender pursuant to paragraph (k) of
this Section 9.04 or (y) theany
Borrower pursuant to paragraph (l) of this Section 9.04) or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of
its Subsidiaries, or to any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described
in this clause (B);

 

(vii)         no
such assignment shall be made to a natural Person; and

 

(viii)        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 sub-participations, 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

each other Lender hereunder and the BorrowerBorrowers
and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in
accordance with its Pro Rata Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations
of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph,
then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance
occurs.

by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective
date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance or an Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable, the assignee
thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance or
an Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement,
and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance or an Affiliated
Lender Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Acceptance or an Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable, covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to
the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20, and 9.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring
prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement
that does not comply with this paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 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 paragraph (f) of
this Section 9.04.

 

(c)           By
executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed
to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that
it is the legal and Beneficial Owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its relevant
Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its relevant Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which

applicable, (ii) except as set forth in clause (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty
and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this
Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other
Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Administrative
Borrower or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by the Administrative
Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document
furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee legally authorized
to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance or Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable; (iv) such assignee
confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to
in Section 3.05(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 5.04 and such other documents and information
as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance or Affiliated
Lender Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such
assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and

(d)           The
Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the BorrowerBorrowers
(such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment
and Acceptance and each Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans 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 BorrowerBorrowers,
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded
in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to
the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative
Borrower, any Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent and any Lender (solely with respect to any entry related to such Lender’s
Loans and Commitments, and only at the office of the Administrative Agent), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
prior notice.

 

(e)           Upon
its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance or Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable,
executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an administrative questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the
assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above,
if applicable, and the written consent of the Administrative Agent and, if required, the Administrative
Borrower and each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such
Assignment and Acceptance or Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance, as applicable, and (ii) record the information contained
therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (e).

 

(f)            Any
Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, theany
Borrower, any Issuing Bank, any other Lender, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person
(other than a natural Person or theany
Borrower or an Affiliate or Subsidiary) (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 the 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 BorrowerBorrowers,
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection
with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible
for the indemnity under Section 9.05(c) regardless of the sale by it of any participations. 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 the
obligations of the BorrowerBorrowers
relating to the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement;
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant,
agree to any amendment, modification or waiver decreasing any fees payable to such Participant or the amount of principal of or
the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans in which such Participant has an interest, extending any scheduled principal
payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest or fees on the Loans or Commitments in which such Participant has an interest,
increasing or extending the Commitments in which such Participant has an interest or releasing all or substantially all of the
Collateral or any Guarantor (other than in connection with the disposition of such Guarantor in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05).
TheEach
Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20 (subject
to the requirements and limitations set forth therein, including the requirements under Section 2.20(e) (it being
understood that the documentation under Section 2.20(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the
same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section 9.04; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.21
as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and (B) shall not be entitled
to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.14, 2.16 or 2.20, with respect to any participation, than
its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment
results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation or unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with the Administrative
Borrower’s prior written consent. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits
of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18
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 BorrowerBorrowers
(such agency being solely for tax purposes), maintain at one or more of its offices a register on which it enters the name and
address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or
other rights or obligations under the Loan Documents (each such register, a “Participant Register”);
provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of any Participant Register (including
the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any Loans or other rights or obligations
under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan or other
right or obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in
a 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.

 

    	 	143	 

     

    

 

(g)           Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, any Participant or sub-participant of a Participant that (i) is a Farm Credit Lender, (ii) has
purchased a participation or a sub-participation, as applicable, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, (iii) has been designated
as a “Voting Participant” (a “Voting Participant”) in a notice (a “Voting Participant
Notice”) sent by the relevant Lender or Voting Participant (including any existing Voting Participant) to the Administrative
Agent and the Administrative Borrower and (iv) receives,
prior to becoming a Voting Participant, the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Administrative
Borrower (each such consent to be required only to the extent and under the circumstances it would be required if such Voting Participant
were to become a Lender pursuant to an assignment in accordance with Section 9.04(b) and only if such Participant
or sub-participant of a Participant is not an existing Voting Participant), shall, for so long as such Farm Credit Lender owns
such participation or sub-participation and notwithstanding any sub-participation by such Farm Credit Lender to an entity that
is not a Voting Participant, be entitled to vote as if such Voting Participant were a Lender on all matters subject to a vote by
the Lenders and the voting rights of the selling Lender or Voting Participant (including any existing Voting Participant) shall
be correspondingly reduced, on a dollar-for-dollar basis; provided, however, that if such Voting Participant has at any time failed
to fund any portion of its participation or sub-participation when required to do so, then until such time as all amounts of its
participation or sub-participation required to have been funded have been funded, such Voting Participant shall not be entitled
to exercise its voting rights pursuant to the terms of this Section 9.04(g), and the voting rights of the selling Lender
or Voting Participant shall not be correspondingly reduced by the amount of such Voting Participant’s participation or sub-participation
(but shall be subject to the provisions applicable to Defaulting Lenders). To be effective, each Voting Participant Notice must,
with respect to each Voting Participant, (A) state the full name, as well as all contact information required to be included
by a prospective Lender in an Assignment and Assumption and (B) state the Dollar amount of the participation purchased by
such Voting Participant. Any selling Lender (including any existing Voting Participant) and any selling or purchasing Voting Participant
shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative
Borrower within three (3) Business Days of any termination, reduction or increase of the amount of such participation or sub-participation.
The BorrowerBorrowers
and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on information contained in Voting Participant Notices and
all other notices delivered pursuant hereto. The voting rights of each Voting Participant are solely for the benefit of such Voting
Participant and shall not inure to any assignee, participant or sub-participant of such Voting Participant that is not a Farm Credit
Lender.

 

    	 	144	 

     

    

 

(h)           Any
Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant
to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating
to the BorrowerBorrowers
or the Subsidiaries furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the BorrowerBorrowers
or the Subsidiaries; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of Information or other information designated by the Administrative
Borrower as confidential, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby
such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such confidential
information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.16.

 

(i)            Any
Lender may at any time pledge or assign or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to
secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other
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.

 

(j)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose
funding vehicle (an “SPV”) the option to provide to the BorrowerBorrowers
all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the BorrowerBorrowers
pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make
any Loan and (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan,
the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder
shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender.
Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement
(all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). TheEach
Borrower agrees that each SPV shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16, and 2.20 (subject
to the requirements and limitations set forth therein, including the requirements under Section 2.20(e)) to the same
extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.04(b); provided
that such SPV (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.21 as if it were an assignee under Section 9.04(b) and
(B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.14, 2.16, and 2.20 than its
Granting Lender would have been entitled to receive, unless the grant of such option to the SPV is made with the Administrative
Borrower’s prior written consent. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall
survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all
outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in
instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under any Debtor
Relief Law. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPV may (i) 
without notice to, or the prior written consent of, theany
Borrower andor
the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans
to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Administrative
Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding
or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any
rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. Each
Granting Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the BorrowerBorrowers
(such agency being solely for tax purposes), maintain at one or more of its offices a register on which it enters the name and
address of each SPV and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each SPV’s interest in the Loans or other rights or
obligations under the Loan Documents (each such register, an “SPV Register”); provided that no
Granting Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of any SPV Register (including the identity of any SPV
or any information relating to an SPV’s interest in any Loans or other rights or obligations under any Loan Document) to
any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan or other right or obligation is in
registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in an SPV Register shall be conclusive
absent manifest error.

(k)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its Term Loans and Term Loan Commitments under this Agreement to an Eligible
Assignee who is or will become, after such assignment is completed, an Affiliated Lender, and any Eligible Assignee that is or
will become, after such transaction is consummated, an Affiliated Lender may make Term Loans or Term Loan Commitments or purchase

attended solely by Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent;

exceed 25% of the then outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Term Loan Commitments;

 

(iii)          no
Affiliated Lender shall be required to make any representation that it is not in possession of any Material Non-Public Information

Lenders that are not Public Lenders that may be material to a Lender’s decision to participate in such purchase or assignment
as long as such Affiliated Lender shall, prior to such assignment or purchase, identify itself as an Affiliated Lender;

 

(iv)          all
assignments by and to Affiliated Lenders shall be documented with an Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance;

 

(v)           upon
request by the Administrative Agent in connection with any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.08, theeach
Borrower hereby agrees to deliver a schedule of all Affiliated Lenders within three (3) Business Days after written request
therefor;

 

(vi)          the
Administrative Agent shall have no obligation or liability to monitor or review any Affiliated Lender’s compliance with this
Section 9.04(k) and each Affiliated Lender hereby agrees not to make or bring any claim, in its capacity as Lender,
against the Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any Lender with respect to the duties and obligations of such Persons under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

 

    	 	146	 

     

    

 

(vii)         notwithstanding
anything in Section 9.08 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining
whether the Required Lenders have (1) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other
action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (2) otherwise acted
on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (3) directed or required any Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or
refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, all Affiliated Lenders shall be deemed to have voted
in the same proportion as non-Affiliated Lenders voting on such matter for purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders
have taken any actions; provided that (x) such Affiliated Lender shall be permitted to vote if such amendment, waiver
or modification disproportionately affects such Affiliated Lender in its capacity as Lender as compared to other Lenders; (y) no
amendment, modification or waiver shall deprive any Affiliated Lender of its share of any payments which the Lenders are entitled
to share on a pro rata basis; and (z) such Affiliated Lender shall be permitted to vote if such amendment, modification or
waiver would increase its commitment, extend or postpone the final maturity or scheduled date of amortization of its Loans, reduce
the principal, interest or fees applicable to its Loans or release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees or release
Liens on all or substantially all of the Collateral; and

 

(viii)        notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, each Affiliated Lender hereby agrees that, if a proceeding
under any Debtor Relief Law shall be commenced by or against theany
Borrower or any other Loan Party at a time when such Lender is an Affiliated Lender, such Affiliated Lender irrevocably authorizes
and empowers the Administrative Agent to vote on behalf of such Affiliated Lender with respect to the Loans held by such Affiliated
Lender in the same proportion as non-Affiliated Lenders voting on such matter; provided that such Affiliated Lender shall be entitled
to vote in accordance with its sole discretion (and not in accordance with the direction of the Administrative Agent) in connection
with any plan of reorganization to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat any Obligations held by such Affiliated
Lender in a manner that is less favorable in any material respect to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar
Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of the BorrowerBorrowers.

 

(l)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04 or any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender shall
have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its Term Loans to the Administrative

amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the
case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swing
Line Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based
upon its share of the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time
(in each case, determined as if no Lender were a Defaulting Lender).

 

(d)           To
the extent permitted by applicable Law, each party hereto agrees that it shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against
any other party hereto or any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages
(as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement
or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

 

(e)           The
provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of
the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration
of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent,
any Lender or any Issuing Bank. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor.

Section 9.06       Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their
respective Affiliates who is owed Obligations is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent prohibited
by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and
other indebtedness at any time owing by such Person to or for the credit or the account of theany
Borrower or any other Loan Party against any of and all the obligations of theany
Borrower or any other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective
of whether or not such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document and although such obligations of thesuch
Borrower or such other Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or
such Issuing Bank different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such 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 2.22
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 Agents, 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. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.06
are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective
Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Administrative
Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give
such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

 

Section 9.07       Applicable
Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT
OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY (OTHER THAN LETTERS OF CREDIT
AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE
OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF
THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES
DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT, OR IF NO SUCH LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE RULES OF THE “INTERNATIONAL STANDBY

Section 9.08      Waivers;
Amendments. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank
in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single
or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power,
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and
are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall
be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance
and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other
or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b)           Neither
this Agreement, any other Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter) nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended
or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the applicable Loan Party or Loan Parties
party thereto and the Required Lenders (or, as applicable, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent upon the direction
of the Required Lenders); provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount
of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment or mandatory prepayment of any principal,
interest or fees on any Loan or any date for reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, or forgive, waive or excuse any such payment
or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest (other than the Default Rate) or fees on any Commitment, Loan or L/C Disbursement,
without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby (for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood
that only the consent of the BorrowerBorrowers
and the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive, amend or modify any financial covenant hereunder (or any defined term used
therein) even if the effect of such waiver, amendment or modification would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan, Letter
of Credit or L/C Disbursement or to reduce any fee payable hereunder, in each case, to the extent such interest or fee is not yet
accrued, due and payable), (ii) increase or extend the Commitment or decrease the amount of or extend the date for payment
of any Fees or fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the pro rata

in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05), or release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the prior
written consent of each Lender, (iv) amend the provisions of Section 7.2 of the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement in a manner that directly and adversely affects any Qualified Counterparty, without the prior written consent of such
Qualified Counterparty, (v) change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the
rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of one Class differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans
of any other Class without the prior written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and
unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class, (vi) modify the protections afforded to an SPV pursuant to the provisions
of Section 9.04(j) without the written consent of such SPV, (vii) reduce the percentage contained in the
definition of the term “Required Lenders” without the prior written consent of each Lender (it being understood that
with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination
of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Commitments on the Original Closing Date), or (viii) impose
any additional restrictions on any Lender’s ability to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder (including any amendment
to Section 9.04) without the prior written consent of the Lenders adversely affected thereby; provided, however,
that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to consent to any such amendment,
modification or waiver, other than any such amendment, modification or waiver which affects the rights or obligations of a Defaulting
Lender differently than the rights or obligations of the other Lenders or increases or extends the Commitment of, or forgives or
decreases the principal amount of, or extends the maturity of any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any
interest on any Loan of, such Defaulting Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise
affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Swing Line Lender, or any Issuing Bank hereunder

Line Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent and the BorrowerBorrowers
may amend any Loan Document to (1) cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency or (2) make any change
that would provide an additional right or benefit to the Lenders or any Issuing Bank (and which is not adverse to any Lender or
any Issuing Bank), so long as, in each case, such changes shall not be materially adverse to the Lenders and the Lenders shall
have received at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have
received, within five (5) Business Days following the date of such notice to the Lenders, written notice from (x) the
Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment or (y) if affected by such amendment, any Issuing
Bank or the Swing Line Lender stating that it objects to such amendment and (ii) the Administrative Agent, the BorrowerBorrowers,
the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Banks may amend this Agreement in accordance with Sections 2.24(k), 2.25 and
2.26 and (iii) the Fee Letter may be amended by the parties thereto in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, any such amendments shall become effective without any further consent of any other party to
such Loan Document.

(d)           In
addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the
BorrowerBorrowers

not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and (e) all
other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing
such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for
covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the Latest Maturity Date.

 

Section 9.09       Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan
or participation in any L/C Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such
Loan or participation in such L/C Disbursement under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall
exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received
or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in
respect of such Loan or participation hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the
Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or participation
but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.09 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges
payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate
therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment,
shall have been received by such Lender.

illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein

import in any Loan Documents, Assignment and Acceptance or Affiliated Lender Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include
electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent
and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the
New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions

irrevocable, without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the
obligations hereunder or thereunder or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto

be available to or be asserted by the other Borrower or any other Person against any Secured Party or (iii) any other circumstance

to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the other Borrower for the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document,
or of such Borrower under this Section 9.21, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. Each Borrower, jointly and severally,
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with
the other Borrower, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including any Obligations arising under
this Section 9.21), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations
of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.

 

(b)           Each
Borrower agrees that it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under this Agreement,
by any payments made hereunder or otherwise, until the prior payment in full in cash of all of the obligations hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the permanent termination of all Commitments.
Any amount paid to any Borrower on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the payment in full in cash of all of the obligations
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the permanent termination
of all Commitments shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid to the Administrative
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and credited and applied against the obligations of the Borrowers, whether matured
or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect. In furtherance of the foregoing, for so long as any obligations
of any Borrower hereunder, any Letters of Credit or any Commitments remain outstanding hereunder or under the other Loan Documents,
each Borrower shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against the other Borrower (or any of its successors
or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts in respect of payments made
in respect of the obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents of such other Borrower to any Secured Party.

(c)           The
provisions of this Section 9.21 are made for the benefit of the Agents, the other Secured Parties and their respective successors
and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may
arise and without requirement on the part of any Agent, any other Secured Party or any of their respective successors or assigns
first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any Borrower or to exhaust any remedies
available to it or them against any Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations
hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 9.21 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations
shall have been paid in full in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof,
made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Agent or any other Secured
Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 9.21
will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

 

(d)           Except
as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability,
notice of any Loans or Letters of Credit made or issued under or pursuant to this Agreement, notice of the occurrence of any Default,
Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by any
Agent or any other Secured Party under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages
and, generally, to the extent permitted by Law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this
Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension
or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations,
the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by any Agent or any other Secured
Party at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant,
condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by any Agent or any other Secured Party in respect
of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any
security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of
any Agent or any other Secured Party with respect to the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective Obligations,
including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully
with applicable Laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 9.21 afford grounds for
terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 9.21,
it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of
each Borrower under this Section 9.21 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance.
The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 9.21 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding
up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any Borrower, any Agent or any
other Secured Parties.

Section 9.22     Acknowledgement
Regarding Any Supported QFCs. (a) To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise,
for Hedging Agreements 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 set forth in the following paragraph
(b) 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).

 

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

Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative
