in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies, as are requested by such Borrower up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to such Lender’s Commitment minus
such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the sum of the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, provided that the sum of the outstanding amount of the Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested)
plus the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment at such time; and provided, further, that (a) (in the case of any such requested Revolving Credit
Loan that is a Barnes Switzerland Loan) the outstanding principal amount of the Barnes Switzerland Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) shall not exceed the Barnes Switzerland Sublimit and (b) (in the case of any such requested
Loan denominated in Alternative Currencies) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies (after giving effect to all amounts requested) shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit. The Loans shall be
made pro rata in accordance with each Lender’s Commitment Percentage. Each request for a Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation 
  

 -22- 

 and warranty by BGI or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, that the conditions set forth in §11 and §12, in
the case of the initial Loans to be made on the Closing Date, and §12, in the case of all other Loans, have been satisfied on the date of such request. Each Base Rate Loan shall be denominated in Dollars. Each Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be
denominated in Dollars or in an Alternative Currency. 
 2.2. Facility Fee. BGI agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for
the accounts of the Lenders in accordance with the Lenders’ respective Commitment Percentages a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) in Dollars calculated at the rate per annum related to the then current Applicable Margin, as set
forth in the definition “Applicable Margin” in §1.1 hereof, on the Total Commitment in effect from time to time from the Closing Date to the Loan Maturity Date. The Facility Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of
each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter commencing on the first such date following the date hereof, with a final payment on the Loan Maturity Date or any earlier date on which the Commitments shall terminate.

 2.3. Reduction of Total Commitment. BGI shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business
Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent to reduce by $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or to terminate entirely the Total Commitment, whereupon the Commitments of the Lenders shall be reduced pro
rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages of the amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be, terminated. Promptly after receiving any notice of BGI delivered pursuant to this §2.3, the Administrative Agent
will notify the Lenders of the substance thereof. The amount of any such Total Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Alternative Currency Sublimit or the Letter of Credit Sublimit, unless the Total Commitment is reduced to a level below
the Alternative Currency Sublimit or the Letter of Credit Sublimit, as applicable, unless otherwise specified by BGI. Upon the effective date of any such reduction or termination, BGI shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the respective accounts
of the Lenders the full amount of any Facility Fee then accrued on the amount of the reduction. No reduction or termination of the Commitments may be reinstated. 
 2.3.1. Increase of Total Commitment. Unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, BGI may request,
with prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent if with respect to a new lender, that the Total Commitment be increased, provided that the Total Commitment shall not,
except with the consent of the Required Lenders, in any event exceed $600,000,000 hereunder, and provided, further, that (i) any Lender which is a party to this Revolving Credit Agreement prior to such increase shall have the
first option to increase its Commitment hereunder, but no Lender shall have any obligation to do so, (ii) in the event that it becomes necessary to include a new Lender to provide additional funding under this §2.3.1, such new Lender must
be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and BGI, and (iii) the Lenders’ Commitment Percentages shall be correspondingly adjusted, as necessary, to reflect any increase in the Total Commitment and Schedule 1 shall
be amended to reflect such adjustments. Each increase in the Total Commitment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. 
 2.4. The Revolving Credit Notes. The Loans (other than those Swing Line Loans advanced by the Swing Line Lender under §2.6.2) shall be
evidenced by separate promissory notes of BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (each a “Note”), dated as of the Closing Date (or such other date on which
a Lender may become a party hereto in accordance with §15 hereof) and completed with appropriate insertions. One Note shall be payable to the order of each Lender in a principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment or, if less, the
outstanding amount of all Loans made by such Lender, plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth below. BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make or cause 
  

 -23- 

 to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal
on such Lender’s Note, an appropriate notation on such Lender’s Note Record reflecting the making of such Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Loans set forth on such Lender’s Note
Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to such Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on such Lender’s Note Record shall not limit or
otherwise affect the obligations of BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, hereunder or under any Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Note when due. 
 2.5. Interest on Loans. Except as otherwise provided in §5.10, 
 (a) Each Loan which is a Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the
last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the Base Rate. 
 (b) Each Loan which is a
Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate determined for such
Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans as in effect from time to time plus (in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan of any Lender which is lent from a Eurocurrency Lending Office in the
United Kingdom or a Participating Member State) the Mandatory Cost. 
 BGI promises to pay or, solely in the case of the Barnes Switzerland
Loans, Barnes Switzerland promises to pay, interest on the Loans, as applicable, on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto. 
 2.6. Requests for Loans. 
 2.6.1. General. BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the
case may be, shall give to the Administrative Agent written notice in the form of Exhibit B hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in a writing in the form of Exhibit B hereto) of each Loan requested hereunder
(a “Loan Request”) no less than (a) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date of any Base Rate Loan, (b) three (3) Eurocurrency Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date of any Eurocurrency Rate
Loan denominated in Dollars, and (c) four (4) Eurocurrency Business Days (or five Business Days in the case of Special Notice Currency) prior to the proposed Drawdown Date of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in Alternative
Currencies. Each such notice shall specify (i) the principal amount of the Loan requested, (ii) the proposed Drawdown Date of such Loan, (iii) the Interest Period for such Loan, (iv) the Type of such Loan, and (v) the
currency of such Loan to be borrowed. If such Borrower fails to specify a currency in a Loan Request, then the Loan so requested shall be made in Dollars. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the
Lenders thereof. Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, and shall obligate such Borrower to accept the Loan requested from the Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Each Loan Request
shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, and after giving effect to all Loans, all conversions of Loans from one Type to another as provided in §2.7.1, and all continuations of Loans
as the same Type as provided in §2.7.2, there shall not be more than ten (10) Interest Periods in effect with respect to the Loans. 
 2.6.2. Swing Line. Notwithstanding the notice and minimum amount requirements set forth in §2.6.1 but otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Credit 
  

 -24- 

 Agreement, the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole discretion and without conferring with the Lenders,
make Loans in Dollars to BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, on a same day basis in a minimum aggregate amount of $100,000 and in an aggregate amount not exceeding $15,000,000 (a) by entry of credits to the applicable operating
account of BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be (the “Operating Accounts”) with the Administrative Agent or such other account which BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, has designated as such to
the Administrative Agent by not less than three (3) Business Days notice, to cover checks or other charges which BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, has drawn or made against such account or (b) in an amount as otherwise
requested by BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be (such Loans made pursuant to this §2.6.2, “Swing Line Loans”). Each of the Borrowers hereby requests and authorizes the Swing Line Lender to make from
time to time such Swing Line Loans by means of appropriate entries of such credits sufficient to cover checks and other charges then presented for payment from the appropriate Operating Account or as otherwise so requested. Each of the Borrowers
acknowledges and agrees that the making of such Swing Line Loans shall, in each case, be subject in all respects to the provisions of this Credit Agreement as if they were Loans covered by a Loan Request including, without limitation, the
limitations set forth in §2.1 and the requirements that the applicable provisions of §11 (in the case of Loans made on the Closing Date) and §12 be satisfied. All actions taken by the Swing Line Lender pursuant to the provisions of
this §2.6.2 shall be conclusive and binding on BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, and the Lenders absent the Swing Line Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Swing Line Loans made pursuant to this §2.6.2
shall be Base Rate Loans until converted in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and, prior to a Settlement, such interest shall be for the account of the Swing Line Lender. 
 2.7. Conversion Options. 
 2.7.1. Conversion to Different Type of Loan. The applicable Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any outstanding Loan to a Loan of another Type, provided that (a) with respect to
any such conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in Dollars to a Base Rate Loan, the applicable Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Eurocurrency Business Days prior written notice of such election;
(b) with respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in Dollars, the applicable Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Eurocurrency Business Days prior written notice
of such election; (c) with respect to any such conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan denominated in Alternative Currencies, the applicable Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least four (4) Eurocurrency Business Days (or five
Eurocurrency Business Days in the case of a Special Notice Currency) prior written notice of such election; (d) with respect to any such conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan, such conversion shall only be made on the
last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto and (e) no Loan may be converted into a Eurocurrency Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. On the date on which such conversion is being made each
Lender shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of such Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its Eurocurrency Lending Office, as the case may be. All or any part of outstanding Loans of any Type may be
converted into a Loan of another Type as provided herein, provided that any partial conversion shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each Conversion Request relating to
the conversion of a Loan to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be irrevocable by the Borrowers. No Loan may be converted into a Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Loan and reborrowed in
the other currency. 
  

 -25- 

 2.7.2. Continuation of Type of Loan. Any Loan of any Type may be continued
as a Loan of the same Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the applicable Borrower with the notice provisions contained in §2.7.1; provided that no Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be continued
as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event
of Default of which officers of the Administrative Agent active upon the Borrowers’ account have actual knowledge. In the event that the applicable Borrower fails to provide any such notice with respect to the continuation of any Eurocurrency
Rate Loan as such, then such Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly when any such
automatic conversion contemplated by this §2.7 is scheduled to occur. No Loan may be continued as a Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Loan and reborrowed in the other
currency. 
 2.7.3. Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Any conversion to or from Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in such
amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all Eurocurrency Rate Loans having the same Interest Period shall not be less than $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof. 
 2.8. Funds for Loan. 
 2.8.1. Funding Procedures. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (Boston time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Loans denominated in
Dollars and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Loans in an Alternative Currency, each of the Lenders will make available to the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s Office,
in Same Day Funds, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of the requested Loans for the applicable currency. Upon receipt from each Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §§11
and 12 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Administrative Agent will make available to BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, the aggregate amount of such Loans made available to
the Administrative Agent by the Lenders. The failure or refusal of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the requested Loans shall not
relieve any other Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such other Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any requested Loans. 
 2.8.2. Advances by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, unless notified to the contrary by any Lender prior
to a Drawdown Date or the Applicable Time, as the case may be, assume that such Lender has made available to the Administrative Agent on such Drawdown Date or Applicable Time, as the case may be, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment
Percentage of the Loans to be made on such Drawdown Date or Applicable Time, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent may (but it shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland,
as the case may be, a corresponding amount. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent such amount on a date after such Drawdown Date or Applicable Time, as the case may be, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its
Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is paid by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in
effect. A statement of the Administrative Agent submitted to such Lender with respect to 
  

 -26- 

 any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing
to the Administrative Agent by such Lender. If the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Loans is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days following such Drawdown Date or
Applicable Time, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from the applicable Borrower on demand, with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to the Loans made on such Drawdown Date or
Applicable Time, as the case may be. The obligations of any Lender under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement. 
 2.9. Settlements. 
 2.9.1. General. On each Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall, not later than 11:00 a.m. (Boston time), give telephonic or facsimile notice (a) to (i) the Lenders and (ii) BGI and/or Barnes
Switzerland, as the case may be, of the respective outstanding amount of Loans made by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders from the immediately preceding Settlement Date through the close of business on the prior day and the amount of
any Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made (following the giving of notice pursuant to §2.6.1(b)) on such date pursuant to a Loan Request and (b) to the Lenders of the amount (a “Settlement Amount”) that each Lender (a
“Settling Lender”) shall pay to effect a Settlement of any Loan. A statement of the Administrative Agent submitted to the Lenders and BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, or to the Lenders with respect to any
amounts owing under this §2.9, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing. Each Settling Lender shall, not later than 3:00 p.m. (Boston time) on such Settlement Date, effect a wire transfer of immediately available
funds to the Administrative Agent in the amount of the Settlement Amount for such Settling Lender. All funds advanced by any Lender as a Settling Lender pursuant to this §2.9 shall for all purposes be treated as a Loan made by such Settling
Lender to BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, and all funds received by any Lender pursuant to this §2.9 shall for all purposes be treated as repayment of amounts owed with respect to Loans made by such Lender. In the event that
any bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or similar cases or proceedings in which any of the Borrowers is a debtor prevent a Settling Lender from making any Loan to effect a Settlement as contemplated hereby, such Settling Lender
will make such dispositions and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such Loans, either by way of purchase of participations, distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each
Lender’s share of the outstanding Loans being equal, as nearly as may be, to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the outstanding amount of the Loans. 
 2.9.2. Failure to Make Funds Available. The Administrative Agent may, unless notified to the contrary by any Settling Lender
prior to a Settlement Date, assume that such Settling Lender has made or will make available to the Administrative Agent on such Settlement Date the amount of such Settling Lender’s Settlement Amount, and the Administrative Agent may (but it
shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, a corresponding amount. If any Settling Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent such amount on a date after
such Settlement Date, such Settling Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is paid by such
Settling Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A statement of the Administrative Agent submitted to such Settling Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this §2.9.2 shall be
prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing to the Administrative Agent by such Settling Lender. If such Settling Lender’s Settlement Amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by 
  

 -27- 

 such Settling Lender within three (3) Business Days following such Settlement Date, the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount from BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, on demand, with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to the Loans as of such Settlement Date. The obligations of any
Settling Lender under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement. 
 2.9.3. No Effect on Other Lenders. The failure or refusal of any Settling Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Settlement Date the amount of such Settling
Lender’s Settlement Amount shall not (a) relieve any other Settling Lender from its several obligations hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such other Settling Lender’s Settlement Amount or
(b) impose upon any Lender, other than the Settling Lender so failing or refusing, any liability with respect to such failure or refusal or otherwise increase the Commitment of such other Lender. 
 3. REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS. 
 3.1. Maturity. BGI promises to pay and, solely in the case of the Barnes Switzerland Loans, Barnes Switzerland promises to pay, on the Loan Maturity Date, and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the Loan Maturity
Date, all of the Loans outstanding on such date, together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that BGI and/or Barnes Switzerland, as the case may be, shall repay each Swing Line Loan on the earlier to occur of
(i) the date ten (10) Business Days after such Loan is made and (ii) the Loan Maturity Date. 
 3.2. Mandatory
Repayments of Loans. If at any time (a) the sum of the outstanding amount of the Loans, the Maximum Drawing Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations exceeds the Total Commitment at such time or (b) the sum of the outstanding
amount of all Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies exceeds the Alternative Currency Sublimit at such time, then BGI shall immediately pay or (solely in the case of the Barnes Switzerland Loans) shall cause Barnes Switzerland to pay the amount
of such excess to the Administrative Agent for the respective accounts of the Lenders for application: first, to any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations; second, to the Loans; and third, to provide to the Administrative Agent cash collateral for
Reimbursement Obligations as contemplated by §4.2(b) and (c). Each payment of any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations or prepayment of Loans shall be allocated among the Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to each Reimbursement
Obligation or (as the case may be) the respective unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Note, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior payments or repayments not exactly in proportion. For the avoidance of doubt, any
payments by Barnes Switzerland shall be applied solely to the Barnes Switzerland Loans or Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit issued for the account of Barnes Switzerland. 
 3.3. Optional Repayments of Loans. BGI shall have the right, at its election, to repay the outstanding amount of the Loans, as a whole or
in part, and Barnes Switzerland shall have the right, at its election, to repay the outstanding amount of the Barnes Switzerland Loans, as a whole or in part, in each case at any time without penalty or premium, provided that, subject to
compliance with §5.9, any full or partial prepayment of the outstanding amount of any Eurocurrency Rate Loans pursuant to this §3.3 may be made on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto. The applicable
Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m., Boston time, (i) at least one (1) Business Day prior written notice of any proposed prepayment pursuant to this §3.3 of Base Rate Loans, (ii) at least three
(3) Eurocurrency Business Days notice of any proposed prepayment pursuant to this §3.3 of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, and (iii) at least four (4) Eurocurrency Business Days (or five, in the case of prepayment
of Loans denominated in Special Notice Currencies) written notice of 
  

 -28- 

 any proposed prepayment pursuant to this §3.3 of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, in
each case specifying the proposed date of prepayment of Loans and the principal amount to be prepaid. Each such partial prepayment of the Loans shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000, shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest
on the principal prepaid to the date of prepayment and shall be applied, in the absence of instruction by the applicable Borrower, first to the principal of Base Rate Loans and then to the principal of Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Each partial
prepayment shall be allocated among the Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Note, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior repayments not exactly
in proportion. 
 4. LETTERS OF CREDIT. 
 4.1. Letter of Credit Commitments. 
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof and the execution and delivery by the applicable Borrower of a letter of credit application on the Administrative Agent’s customary form (a “Letter of Credit Application”), the Issuing Bank on behalf
of the Lenders and in reliance upon the agreement of the Lenders set forth in §4.1.4 and upon the representations and warranties of the applicable Borrower contained herein, agrees, in its individual capacity, to issue, extend and renew for the
account of the applicable Borrower one or more standby or documentary letters of credit denominated in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies (individually, a “Letter of Credit”), in such form as may be
requested from time to time by the applicable Borrower and agreed to by the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that, after giving effect to such request, (a) the sum of the aggregate Maximum Drawing
Amount and all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit at any one time and (b) (i) in the case of BGI, the sum of (I) the Maximum Drawing Amount on all Letters of Credit, (II) all Unpaid
Reimbursement Obligations, and (III) the amount of all Loans outstanding shall not exceed the Total Commitment at such time, and (ii) in the case of Barnes Switzerland, the sum of (I) the Maximum Drawing Amount on all Letters of Credit,
(II) all Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, (III) the amount of all Loans outstanding shall not exceed the Total Commitment at such time, and (IV) the amount of all Barnes Switzerland Loans outstanding shall not exceed the Barnes Switzerland Sublimit
at such time. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof. 
 (b) The Issuing Bank shall not issue any Letter of Credit, if: 
 (i) Subject to §4.1(c), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of
issuance or last extension; or 
 (ii) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of
Credit Expiration Date. 
 (c) The Issuing Bank shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

 (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or
restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank
shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain 
  

 -29- 

 from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose
upon the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank
any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the date hereof and which the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; 
 (ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate (A) any Laws or (B) one or more policies of the Issuing Bank, provided that such policies have been disclosed to the Borrowers prior to the
request for the issuance of such Letter of Credit; 
 (iii) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the
Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit is in an initial face amount less than $100,000; 
 (iv) except as otherwise agreed by the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars or an Alternative Currency; 
 (v) the Issuing Bank does not as of the issuance date of such requested Letter of Credit issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency; 
 (vi) such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or

 (vii) a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund under §4.3 exists or any Lender which has a Revolving Credit
Commitment has failed to fund any portion of any participations in Letter of Credit Obligations required to be funded by it hereunder, unless the Issuing Bank has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the applicable Borrower or such Lender to
eliminate the Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to such Lender. 
 4.2. Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit;
Auto-Extension Letters of Credit. 
 (a) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon
the request of the applicable Borrower delivered to the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower.
Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank may agree in a
particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in
form and detail satisfactory to the Issuing Bank: (i) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (ii) the amount and currency thereof; (iii) the expiry date thereof; (iv) the
name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (v) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (vi) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing
thereunder; and (vii) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the
Issuing Bank (w) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (x) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (y) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (z) such other matters as the 
  

 -30- 

 Issuing Bank may require. Additionally, the applicable Borrower shall furnish to the Issuing Bank and the
Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent may require. 
 (b) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application at the address set forth in §16.6 for receiving Letter of Credit
Applications and related correspondence, the Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the applicable Borrower
and, if not, the Issuing Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuing Bank has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the
requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions in §12 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Bank shall, on the requested
date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business
practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Issuing Bank a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal
to the product of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit. 
 (c) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Bank will also deliver to the applicable Borrower and the
Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 
 (d) If any Borrower so requests in any
applicable Letter of Credit Application, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided
that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the
beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Bank, no Borrower
shall be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Bank to permit the
extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Bank has determined that it
would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (b) or (c) of §4.1 or otherwise), or
(B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to
permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the applicable Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in §12 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuing Bank not to
permit such extension. 
 (e) The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders, on a quarterly basis, of all Letters of Credit
outstanding. 
  

 -31- 

 4.3. Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. 
 (a) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank
shall notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank in such Alternative Currency, unless
(i) the Issuing Bank (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (ii) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the applicable Borrower shall have
notified the Issuing Bank promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the applicable Borrower will reimburse the Issuing Bank in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated
in an Alternative Currency, the Issuing Bank shall notify the applicable Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the Issuing
Bank under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars, or the Applicable Time on the date of any payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency (each such date, an “Honor Date”),
the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the applicable currency. If the applicable Borrower fails to so reimburse the Issuing Bank by such
time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated
in an Alternative Currency), and the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage thereof. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan to be disbursed on the Honor
Date in an amount equal to the Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in §2.6 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Total
Commitment and the conditions set forth in §12 (other than the delivery of a Loan Request). Any notice given by the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this §4.3(a) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in
writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 
 (b) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to §4.3(a) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank, in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s Office for
Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the
provisions of 4.3(c), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan to the applicable Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to
the Issuing Bank in Dollars. 
 (c) With respect to any Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation that is not fully refinanced by a
Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan because the conditions set forth in §12 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Issuing Bank a Letter of Credit Borrowing in
the amount of the Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation that is not so refinanced, which Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate set forth for Base Rate Loans in
§6.11. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank pursuant to §4.3(b) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall
constitute a Letter of Credit Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this §4.3. 
  

 -32- 

 (d) Until each Lender funds its Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan or Letter
of Credit Advance pursuant to this §4.3 to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the Issuing
Bank. 
 (e) Each Lender’s obligation to make a Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan or Letter of Credit
Advances to reimburse the Issuing Bank for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this §4.3, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim,
recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (iii) any other occurrence,
event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make a Revolving Credit Loan which is a Base Rate Loan pursuant to this §4.3 is subject to the conditions
set forth in §12 (other than delivery by the applicable Borrower of a Loan Request). No such making of a Letter of Credit Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the
amount of any payment made by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 
 (f)
If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this §4.3 by the time specified in Section
§4.3(b), the Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such
payment is immediately available to the Issuing Bank at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Issuing Bank in
connection with the foregoing. A certificate of the Issuing Bank submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 4.4. Repayment of Participations. 
 (a) At any time after the Issuing Bank has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s Letter of Credit Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with
§4.3, if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the Issuing Bank any payment in respect of the related Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation or interest thereon (whether directly from the applicable Borrower or otherwise, including
proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Commitment Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of
time during which such Lender’s Letter of Credit Advance was outstanding) in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank pursuant to §4.3(a) is required to be
returned in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Issuing Bank in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank
its Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to
time in effect. The obligations of Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement. 
  

 -33- 

 4.5. Obligations Absolute. 
 The obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each Letter of Credit
Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: 
 (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document; 
 (b) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that any Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time
against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Credit Agreement, the
transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 
 (c) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate
in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; 
 (d) any payment by the Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the Issuing
Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee
of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; 
 (e) any
adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to any Borrower or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or 
 (f) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that
might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower or any Subsidiary. 
 The applicable Borrower shall
promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the applicable Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the applicable Borrower will
immediately notify the Issuing Bank. The applicable Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
 4.6. Role of Issuing Bank. 
 Each Lender and each of the Borrowers agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly
required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any of
their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Issuing Bank shall be liable to any Lender for 
  

 -34- 

 (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of Lenders or the Required
Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of
Credit or Issuer Document. Each Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to,
and shall not, preclude such Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective
Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Issuing Bank, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (a) through (e) of §4.5; provided, however, that anything in
such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the applicable Borrower may have a claim against the Issuing Bank, and the Issuing Bank may be liable to the applicable Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to
consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by such Borrower which such Borrower proves were caused by the Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Issuing Bank’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after
the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the 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 the Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument
transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 
 4.7. Cash Collateral. 
 Upon
the request of the Administrative Agent, (i) if the Issuing Bank has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in a Letter of Credit Borrowing and an Event of Default exists, or
(ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the applicable Borrower shall, in each case, immediately cash collateralize the then outstanding amount of all Letter of
Credit Obligations. 
 4.8. Applicability of ISP. 
 Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall
apply to each standby Letter of Credit. 
 4.9. Letter of Credit Amounts. 
 Unless otherwise specified herein the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the Maximum Drawing Amount of such Letter of Credit
in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the Maximum Drawing Amount
thereof, the Maximum Drawing Amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum drawing amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum drawing amount is in effect at such time.

 4.10. Letter of Credit Fee. The applicable Borrower shall pay a fee (the “Letter of Credit
Fee”) equal to the Applicable Margin on the Maximum Drawing Amount of the Letters of Credit (other than Performance Letters of Credit), in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, to be shared pro
rata by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment 
  

 -35- 

 Percentages. The applicable Borrower shall pay a fee equal to one-half of the Applicable Margin on the Maximum Drawing
Amount of the Performance Letters of Credit (the “Performance Letter of Credit Fee”, collectively with the Letter of Credit Fee, the “Letter of Credit Fees”) to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, to be shared pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. The Letter of Credit Fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of
each calendar quarter for the quarter just ended, with the first such payment commencing on the first such date following the date hereof, and on the Loan Maturity Date. In addition, an issuing fee (the “Issuance Fee”) equal
to one eighth percent (1/8%) of the Maximum Drawing Amount with respect to each Letter of Credit shall be payable by the applicable Borrower to the Issuing Bank for its account and the applicable Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Bank any
amendment, negotiation or document examination and other administrative fees charged by the Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit as in effect from time to time. 
 5. CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS. 
 5.1. Administrative Agent’s
Fee. BGI shall pay to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Agent’s fee (the “Administrative Agent’s Fee”) as set forth in the Fee Letter. 
 5.2. Funds for Payments. 
 5.2.1. Payments to Administrative Agent. Except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations,
Fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the respective accounts of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, at the
Administrative Agent’s Office or at such other place that the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate, in each case at or about 11:00 a.m. (Boston, Massachusetts, time or other local time at the place of payment) and in Same Day
Funds. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified
herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Credit Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any
required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. 
 5.2.2. No Offset, etc. All payments by the Borrowers hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made
without recoupment, setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes unless the applicable Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such Taxes are imposed with respect to any amount
payable by a Borrower hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the applicable Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders or (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent, on the date on which such amount
is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders or the Administrative Agent
would have received on such due date had no such Taxes been imposed. The Borrowers will deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with 
  

 -36- 

 respect to payments made by either Borrower hereunder or under such other Loan Document. Each Borrower
shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section paid by the
Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on
behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 5.2.3. Non-U.S. Lenders.
Each Lender and the Administrative Agent that is not a U.S. Person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code for federal income tax purposes (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) hereby agrees that, if and to the extent it is
legally able to do so, it shall, prior to the date of the first payment by the Borrowers hereunder to be made to such Lender or the Administrative Agent or for such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s account, deliver to the Borrowers
and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, such certificates, documents or other evidence, as and when required by the Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto, including (a) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is a
“bank” for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, two (2) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI and any other certificate or statement of exemption required by Treasury Regulations,
or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender or the Administrative Agent establishing that with respect to payments of principal, interest or fees hereunder it is (i) not subject
to United States federal withholding tax under the Code because such payment is effectively connected with the conduct by such Lender or Administrative Agent of a trade or business in the United States or (ii) totally exempt or partially exempt
from United States federal withholding tax under a provision of an applicable tax treaty and (b) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a certificate in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and BGI and to the effect that (i) such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not subject to regulatory or other legal
requirements as a bank in any jurisdiction, and has not been treated as a bank for purposes of any tax, securities law or other filing or submission made to any governmental authority, any application made to a rating agency or qualification for any
exemption from any tax, securities law or other legal requirements, (ii) is not a ten (10) percent shareholder for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code and (iii) is not a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest
from a related person for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, together with a properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9, as applicable (or successor forms). Each Lender or the Administrative Agent agrees that it
shall, promptly upon a change of its lending office or the selection of any additional lending office, to the extent the forms previously delivered by it pursuant to this section are no longer effective, and promptly upon BGI’s or the
Administrative Agent’s reasonable request after the occurrence of any other event (including the passage of time) requiring the delivery of a Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8 or W-9 in addition to or in replacement of the forms previously
delivered, deliver to BGI and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent it is properly entitled to do so, a properly completed and executed Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8 or W-9, as applicable (or any successor forms
thereto). The Borrowers shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to any Non-U.S. Lender in respect of United States federal withholding tax pursuant to §5.2.2 above to the extent that the obligation to pay such additional
amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Non-U.S. Lender to comply with the provisions of this §5.2.3; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to pay additional
amounts 
  

 -37- 

 pursuant to §5.2.2 in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or
governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in interpretation, administration or application thereof, a Non-U.S. Lender that was previously entitled to receive all payments under this Credit Agreement and the Notes without deduction or
withholding or with reduced withholding of any United States federal income taxes is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender is not subject to
withholding or that such Lender is subject to reduced withholding, as the case may be. 
 5.3. Computations. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, all computations of interest, and, the Facility Fee, the Letter of Credit Fees or other fees shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed, except that computations based on the
Base Rate (except to the extent derived from the Federal Funds Rate) shall be based on a 365 or 366, as applicable, day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed, and computations of interest in respect of Loans denominated in Alternative
Currencies as to which market practices differ from the foregoing, shall be made in accordance with such market practice. Whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due
date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension; provided that for any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Loan if such next succeeding Business Day
falls in the next succeeding calendar month or after the Loan Maturity Date, it shall be deemed to end on the next preceding Business Day. 
 5.4. Inability to Determine Eurocurrency Rate. In the event, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent shall determine or be notified by the Required
Lenders that (a) adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate that would otherwise determine the rate of interest to be applicable to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan (whether in Dollars or an Alternative
Currency) during any Interest Period or (b) the Eurocurrency Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable opinion, adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of
making or maintaining their Eurocurrency Rate Loans during such period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders) to the Borrowers and the
Lenders. In such event (i) any Loan Request or Conversion Request with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for Base Rate Loans, (ii) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan will
automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period relating thereto, become a Base Rate Loan, and (iii) the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended
until the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Administrative Agent or, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the
Required Lenders, shall so notify the Borrowers and the Lenders. 
 5.5. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions
herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or directive or the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative
Currency), such Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrowers and the other Lenders and thereupon (a) the commitment of such Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies, or, in the
case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in Dollars, to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be prepaid or, if applicable and
such Loans are denominated in Dollars, converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by 
  

 -38- 

 law. The Borrowers hereby agree promptly to pay the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, upon demand by
such Lender, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this §5.5, including any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds
obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Eurocurrency Rate Loans hereunder. 
 5.6. Additional Costs, etc. If any
present or future applicable law, which expression, as used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations thereof by any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body or official charged with the
administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or the Administrative Agent by any central bank or other fiscal,
monetary or other authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall: 
 (a) subject any Lender or the Administrative
Agent to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Letters of Credit, such Lender’s Commitment or the Loans (other than taxes based upon
or measured by the income or profits of such Lender or the Administrative Agent), or 
 (b) materially change the basis of
taxation (except for changes in taxes on income or profits) of payments to any Lender of the principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable to any Lender or the Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents, or 
 (c) impose or increase or render applicable (other than to the extent specifically provided for
elsewhere in this Credit Agreement) any special deposit, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans
by, or letters of credit issued by, or commitments of an office of any Lender(except (A) any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurocurrency Rate and (B) the requirements of the Bank of England and the Financial Services Authority or the
European Central Bank reflected in the Mandatory Cost, other than as set forth below), or 
 (d) result in the failure of the
Mandatory Cost, as calculated hereunder, to represent the cost to any Lender of complying with the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank in relation to its making, funding or
maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Loans, or 
 (e) impose on any Lender or the Administrative Agent any other conditions or
requirements with respect to this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any Letters of Credit, the Loans, such Lender’s Commitment, or any class of loans, letters of credit or commitments of which any of the Loans or such Lender’s
Commitment forms a part, and the result of any of the foregoing is 
 (i) to increase the cost to any Lender of making,
funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans or such Lender’s Commitment or any Letter of Credit, or 
 (ii) to reduce the amount of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligation or other amount payable to such Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s Commitment, any Letter of Credit or any of the Loans,
or 
  

 -39- 

 (iii) to require such Lender or the Administrative Agent to make any payment or to forego
any interest or Reimbursement Obligation or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or Reimbursement Obligation or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed
received by such Lender or the Administrative Agent from either of the Borrowers hereunder, 
 then, and in each such case, BGI will, and, solely in the case
of amounts arising from the Barnes Switzerland Loans, Barnes Switzerland will, within 30 days of demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may
arise, pay to such Lender or the Administrative Agent such additional amounts as will be sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Administrative Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or Reimbursement Obligation
or other sum. 
 5.7. Capital Adequacy. If after the date hereof any Lender or the Administrative Agent determines that
(a) the adoption of or change in any law, governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) regarding capital requirements for banks or bank holding companies or any change in the
interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority with appropriate jurisdiction, or (b) compliance by such Lender or the Administrative Agent or any corporation controlling such Lender or the Administrative Agent with any law,
governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such entity regarding capital adequacy, has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s
commitment with respect to any Loans to a level below that which such Lender or the Administrative Agent could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s
then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent to be material, then such Lender or the
Administrative Agent may notify the Borrowers of such fact in writing. To the extent that the amount of such reduction in the return on capital is not reflected in the Base Rate, BGI agrees to pay or, solely in the case of the Barnes Switzerland
Loans, Barnes Switzerland agrees to pay, such Lender or (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent for the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is determined within 30 days of presentation by such Lender or
(as the case may be) the Administrative Agent of a certificate in accordance with §5.8 hereof. Each Lender shall allocate such cost increases among its customers in good faith and on an equitable basis. 
 5.8. Certificate. A certificate setting forth any additional amounts payable pursuant to §§5.6 or 5.7 showing the calculation in
reasonable detail, submitted by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, that such amounts are due and owing. The Lender or the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower
within 180 days after it becomes aware of the imposition of such additional amount or amounts; provided that if such Lender or the Administrative Agent fails to so notify such Borrower within such 180 day period, such Lender or the
Administrative Agent shall not be entitled to claim any additional amount or amounts pursuant to this subsection for any period ending on a date which is prior to 180 days before such notification. 
 5.9. Indemnity for Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from and against
any loss, cost or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by such Borrower in payment of the principal amount of or any interest on any Eurocurrency Rate Loans as and when due and payable, including any
such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its Eurocurrency Rate Loans, (b) default by such Borrower in making a borrowing or conversion after such Borrower
has given (or is deemed to have given) a Loan Request or a Conversion 
  

 -40- 

 Request relating thereto in accordance with §2.6 or §2.7 or (c) the making of any payment of a
Eurocurrency Rate Loan or the making of any conversion of any such Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect thereto (but excluding loss of margin), including interest or fees payable
by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain any such Loans. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any payment pursuant to this §5.9, it shall notify the applicable Borrower within 60 days of the event by reason of
which it has become so entitled and shall provide such Borrower with a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this section, showing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail. Such Borrower shall promptly pay all such amounts
upon receipt of Lender’s certificate. 
 5.10. Interest After Default. 
 5.10.1. Overdue Amounts. Overdue principal and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) interest on the Loans and all
other overdue amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall bear interest compounded monthly and payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) above the rate of interest then applicable thereto (or,
if no rate of interest is then applicable thereto, the Base Rate), including any Applicable Margin and any Mandatory Cost, until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment). 
 5.10.2. Amounts Not Overdue. During the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default the principal of the Loans not
overdue shall, until such Default or Event of Default has been cured or remedied or such Default or Event of Default has been waived by the Required Lenders pursuant to §16.12, bear interest compounded monthly and payable on demand at a rate
per annum equal to two percent (2%) above the rate of interest then applicable thereto (or, if no rate of interest is then applicable thereto, the Base Rate), including any Applicable Margin and any Mandatory Cost. 
 5.11. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) (a) makes demand upon the Borrowers for (or
if the Borrowers are otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to §§5.6 or 5.7, (b) is unable to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans as a result of a condition described in §5.5 or (c) defaults in its obligation to
make Loans in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement or purchase any Letter of Credit Participation, the Borrowers may, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, within ninety (90) days of
receipt of such demand, notice (or the occurrence of such other event causing the Borrowers to be required to pay such compensation or causing §5.5 to be applicable), or default, as the case may be, by notice (a “Replacement
Notice”) in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender (i) request the Affected Lender to cooperate with the Borrowers in obtaining a replacement Lender satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers
(the “Replacement Lender”); (ii) request the non-Affected Lenders to acquire and assume all of the Affected Lender’s Loans and Commitment as provided herein, but none of such Lenders shall be under an obligation to
do so; or (iii) designate a Replacement Lender approved by the Administrative Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If any satisfactory Replacement Lender shall be obtained, and/or if any one or more of the
non-Affected Lenders shall agree to acquire and assume all of the Affected Lender’s Loans and Commitment, then such Affected Lender shall assign, in accordance with §15, all of its Commitment, Loans, Letter of Credit Participations, Notes
and other rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents to such Replacement Lender or non-Affected Lenders, as the case may be, in exchange for payment of the principal amount so assigned and all interest and fees
accrued on the amount so assigned, plus all other Obligations then due and payable to the Affected Lender; provided, however, that (A) such assignment shall be without recourse, representation or warranty and shall be on terms and
conditions reasonably satisfactory to such Affected Lender and such Replacement Lender and/or non-Affected Lenders, as the case may be, and (B) prior to 
  

 -41- 

 any such assignment, the applicable Borrower shall have paid to such Affected Lender all amounts properly demanded and
unreimbursed under §§5.6 and 5.7. Upon the effective date of such assignment, the Borrowers shall issue replacement Notes to such Replacement Lender and/or non-Affected Lenders, as the case may be, and such institution shall become a
“Lender” for all purposes under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 6. GUARANTORS. 
 6.1. Guaranty by Subsidiaries.  
 (a) BGI shall cause each of the Significant Subsidiaries (excluding any foreign Subsidiaries) to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, (i) a
Guaranty in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto, and (ii) any other instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require, together with legal opinions in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent to be delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders opining as to authorization, validity and enforceability of such Guaranties. 
 (b) To the extent any of BGI’s Subsidiaries agrees to provide a guaranty to any of the lenders under the Existing Senior Debt or
other Indebtedness permitted hereunder, BGI, if requested by the Administrative Agent with 60 days prior written notice, but in no event later than the grant of such other guaranty, will cause each Subsidiary (excluding any foreign Subsidiaries)
that has agreed to guaranty such other Indebtedness to become a Guarantor in accordance with (a) above. 
 6.2. Guaranty by

businesses now conducted by them and in similar or related businesses; provided that nothing in this §8.6 shall prevent any of the Borrowers from discontinuing the operation and maintenance of any of its properties or any of those of its
Subsidiaries if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of such Borrower, desirable in the conduct of its or their business and will not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 8.7. Insurance. Each of the Borrowers will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain with financially sound and reputable
insurers insurance with respect to its properties and business against such casualties and contingencies as shall be in accordance with the general practices of businesses engaged in similar activities in similar geographic areas and in amounts,

aside on its books adequate reserves or otherwise made appropriate provisions therefor as required by GAAP with respect thereto; and provided further that each such Borrower and each Subsidiary will pay all such taxes, assessments,
charges, levies or claims forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any Lien that may have attached as security therefor.

any of their Subsidiaries may fulfill any of its obligations hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents to which such Borrower or such Subsidiary is a party, such Borrower will, or (as the case may be) will cause such Subsidiary to, immediately

 -63- 

 13.2. Termination of Commitments. If any one or more of the Events of Default specified in

Administrative Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations to issue, extend or renew Letters of Credit. If any other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or if on any Drawdown Date or other date for issuing, extending or
renewing any Letter of Credit the conditions precedent to the making of the Loans to be made on such Drawdown Date or (as the case may be) to issuing, extending or renewing such Letter of Credit on such other date are not satisfied, the
Administrative Agent may and, upon the request of the Required Lenders, shall, by notice to the Borrowers, terminate the unused portion of the credit hereunder, and upon such notice being given such unused portion of the credit hereunder shall
terminate immediately and each of the Lenders shall be relieved of all further obligations to make Loans and the Administrative Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations to issue, extend or renew Letters of Credit. No termination of the

Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the Lenders shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans pursuant to §13.1, each Lender, if owed any amount with respect to the Loans or the Reimbursement
Obligations, may, with the consent of the Required Lenders but not otherwise, proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or
agreement contained in this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any instrument pursuant to which the Obligations to such Lender are evidenced, including as permitted by applicable law the obtaining of the ex parte
appointment of a receiver, and, if such amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, proceed to enforce the payment thereof or any other legal or equitable right of such Lender. No remedy herein conferred upon any Lender or the
Administrative Agent or the holder of any Note or purchaser of any Letter of Credit Participation is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law. 
 14. THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT. 
 14.1. Authorization. 
 (a) Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent
hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and
thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Administrative Agent.

 (b) The relationship between the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders is that of an independent contractor. The use
of the term “Administrative Agent” is for convenience only and is used to describe, as a form of convention, the independent contractual relationship between the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders. Nothing contained
in this Credit Agreement nor the other Loan Documents shall be construed to create an agency, trust or other fiduciary relationship between the Administrative Agent and any of the Lenders; 
 (c) As an independent contractor empowered by the Lenders to exercise certain rights and perform certain duties and responsibilities
hereunder and under the other Loan 
  

 -64- 

 Documents, the Administrative Agent is nevertheless a “representative” of the Lenders,
as that term is defined in Article 1 of the Uniform Commercial Code, for purposes of actions for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent with respect to all collateral security and guaranties contemplated by the Loan Documents. Such
actions include the designation of the Administrative Agent as “secured party”, “mortgagee” or the like on all financing statements and other documents and instruments, whether recorded or otherwise, relating
to the attachment, perfection, priority or enforcement of any security interests, mortgages or deeds of trust in collateral security intended to secure the payment or performance of any of the Obligations, all for the benefit of the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent. 
 (d) The Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued
by it and the documents associated therewith, and the Issuing Bank shall have all the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this §14 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Bank in
connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this
§14 included the Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions (and including any affiliates of the Issuing Bank and the officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys-in-fact of the Issuing Bank and any affiliates), and
(ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Issuing Bank. 
 (e) The Lenders authorize the Administrative
Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Lenders agree to be bound by the terms thereof. 
 (f) The provisions of this §14 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and none of
the Borrowers nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 
 14.2. Employees and
Administrative Agents. The Administrative Agent may exercise its powers and execute its duties by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights
and duties under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may reasonably determine, and all reasonable fees and expenses
of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrowers. 
 14.3. No Liability. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its
shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent or employee thereof, shall be liable for any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good
faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that the Administrative Agent or such
other Person, as the case may be, may be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability to any Lender for relying upon, any writing,
communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to
have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. With respect to the
Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so

  

 -65- 

 requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense
which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, is contrary to any Loan
Document or applicable law; provided further that, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action (other than an action expressly required by this Credit Agreement to be taken by it under such circumstances) that, in
its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected, as against the Lenders, in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Credit Agreement
or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant
thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. Except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information
relating to the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have
knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers or a Lender. 
 14.4. No Representations. 
 14.4.1. General. The Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of this Credit Agreement, the Notes, the Letters of Credit, any of the other Loan Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement, or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to
constitute, collateral security for the Notes, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties
or representations made herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of any of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the
performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or to inspect any of the properties, books or records of any of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries. The Administrative Agent shall not be bound to
ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by any of the Borrowers or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. The Administrative Agent has not made nor does it
now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to the Lenders, with respect to the credit worthiness or financial conditions of any of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Credit Agreement. 
 14.4.2. Closing Documentation, etc. For purposes of determining compliance with the
conditions set forth in §11, each Lender that has executed this Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted, or to be satisfied with, each document and matter either sent, or made available, by the Administrative
Agent or the Arranger to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Lender, unless an officer of the Administrative Agent or the
Arranger acting upon any Borrower’s account shall have received notice from such Lender not less than three days prior to the Closing Date specifying such Lender’s objection thereto and such objection shall not have been withdrawn by
notice to the Administrative Agent or the Arranger to such effect on or prior to the Closing Date. 
  

 -66- 

 14.5. Payments. 
 14.5.1. Payments to Administrative Agent. A payment by any of the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent hereunder or any of
the other Loan Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such Lender. The Administrative Agent agrees promptly to distribute to each Lender such Lender’s pro rata share of payments received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. 
 14.5.2. Distribution by Administrative Agent. If in the opinion of the Administrative Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the
other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making distribution until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge
that any amount received and distributed by the Administrative Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Administrative Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to
be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court. 
 14.5.3.
Delinquent Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any Lender that fails (a) to make available to the Administrative Agent its pro rata
share of any Loan or to purchase any Letter of Credit Participation or (b) to comply with the provisions of §16.1 with respect to making dispositions and arrangements with the other Lenders, where such Lender’s share of any payment
received, whether by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its pro rata share of such payments due and payable to all of the Lenders, in each case as, when and to the full extent required by the provisions of this Credit Agreement,
shall be deemed delinquent (a “Delinquent Lender”) and shall be deemed a Delinquent Lender until such time as such delinquency is satisfied. A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments due to it
from any of the Borrowers, whether on account of outstanding Loans, Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining nondelinquent Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their respective pro rata
shares of all outstanding Loans and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations. The Delinquent Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to distribute such payments to the nondelinquent Lenders in proportion to their respective pro rata
shares of all outstanding Loans and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations. A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have satisfied in full a delinquency when and if, as a result of application of the assigned payments to all outstanding Loans and Unpaid
Reimbursement Obligations of the nondelinquent Lenders, the Lenders’ respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Loans and Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations have returned to those in effect immediately prior to such delinquency
and without giving effect to the nonpayment causing such delinquency. 
 14.6. Holders of Notes. The Administrative Agent may
deem and treat the payee of any Note or the purchaser of any Letter of Credit Participation as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a
subsequent holder, assignee or transferee. 
 14.7. Indemnity. To the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers, the Lenders
ratably agree hereby to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including any of the officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys-in-fact of any thereof) (each an “Indemnified Party”)
from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for which such Indemnified Party has not been reimbursed by the 
  

 -67- 

 Borrowers as required by §16.3), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this
Credit Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or such Indemnified Party’s actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall
be directly caused by such Indemnified Party’s willful misconduct or gross negligence, or, in the absence of instruction or concurrence of the Required Lenders, breach of contract. 
 14.8. Administrative Agent as Lender; Etc.. In its individual capacity, Bank of America shall have the same obligations and the same
rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Notes and as the purchaser of any Letter of Credit Participations, as it would have were it not also the Administrative Agent. None
of the Documentation Agents or Syndication Agents shall have any obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents other than as a Lender hereunder. 
 14.9. Resignation. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the
Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United
States. Provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Administrative Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required
Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint
a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall
nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (x) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral
security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative
Agent is appointed) and (y) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Bank directly, until such time as the Required
Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this §14.9. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already
discharged therefrom as provided above in this §14.9). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor.
After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article 14 and §14.9 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents
and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 14.10. Notification of Defaults and Events of Default. Each Lender hereby agrees that, upon learning of the existence of a Default or an
Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees that upon receipt of any notice under this §14.10 it shall promptly notify the other Lenders of the existence of such Default or
Event of Default. 
 14.11. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. 
  

 -68- 

 (a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial, administrative or like proceeding or any assignment for the benefit of creditors relative to any of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent
(irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan, Reimbursement Obligation or Unpaid Reimbursement Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent
shall have made any demand on any of the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding, under any such assignment or otherwise: 
 (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, Reimbursement
Obligations or Unpaid Reimbursement Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under the terms of
this Credit Agreement) allowed in such proceeding or under any such assignment; and 
 (ii) to collect and receive any monies
or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 (b) Any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding or under any such assignment is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative
Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, nevertheless to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its
agents and counsel due the Administrative Agent under the terms of the Credit Agreement, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under the terms of this Credit Agreement. 
 (c) Nothing contained herein shall authorize the Administrative Agent to consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations owed to such Lender or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding or under
any such assignment. 
 15. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION. 
 15.1. General Conditions and Conditions to Assignment. 
 The provisions of this Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that none of the Borrowers may assign
or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except:

 (a) any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under
this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it and its risk associated with Letters of Credit); provided that: 
  

 -69- 

 (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning
Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose
includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers, otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); 
 (ii) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for recording in the Register (as hereinafter
defined), an Assignment and Assumption, substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto (an “Assignment and Assumption”), together with any Notes subject to such assignment, a processing and
recordation fee (the “Assignment Fee”) in the amount of $2,500 for each assignment, or as otherwise set forth in Schedule 15.1, and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, provided however that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive the Assignment Fee in the case of any assignment; 
 (iii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Credit Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (iii) shall not apply to rights in respect of Loans made pursuant to §2.6.2; and 
 (iv) (A) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender,
unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee) and (B) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in the case of any
assignment to an Eligible Assignee who would impose costs or burdens on the Borrowers under §§5.2.2, 5.2.3, 5.5, 5.6, and/or 5.7 not applicable to the assigning Lender (or in the aggregate greater than any such costs or burdens imposed by
the assigning Lender), such assignment must be approved by the Borrowers (each such approval, whether referred to in clause (A) or (B), not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 
 Subject to the approvals pursuant to §15.1(a)(iv), upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Assumption, which effective date shall be at least five (5) Business Days after the execution thereof, (y) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and
Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, and (z) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of its interest being assigned by such Assignment and Assumption (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all
of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto), be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement, but, notwithstanding such assignment, shall continue to
be entitled to the benefits of (i) §§5.2.2, 5.6, 5.7 and 5.9 and (ii) §16.3 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights

participating interest in any of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations to a Participant, and such Participant is any Borrower or an Affiliate of any Borrower, then such transferor Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the sale of
such participation. A transferor Lender shall have no right to vote as a Lender hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for purposes of granting consents or waivers or for purposes of agreeing to amendments or modifications to any of the
Loan Documents or for purposes of making requests to the Administrative Agent pursuant to §13.1 or §13.2 to the extent that such participation is beneficially owned by any Borrower or any Affiliate of any Borrower, and the determination of
the Required Lenders shall for all purposes of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents be made without regard to the interest of such transferor Lender in the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations to the extent of such participation.

holders of obligations owed or securities issued by such fund as security for such obligations or securities or any institutional custodian for such fund or for such lender. Any foreclosure or similar action by any Person in respect of such pledge
or assignment shall be subject to the other provisions of this §15. No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, provide any voting
rights hereunder to the pledgee thereof, or affect any rights or obligations of the Borrowers or Administrative Agent hereunder. 
 15.8.

(30) days’ notice to the Borrowers and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Bank and/or (ii) upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrowers, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Bank or
Swing Line Lender, the Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrowers to appoint any such successor shall
affect the resignation of Bank of America as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as Issuing Bank, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters
of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all Unpaid

REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH LENDER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR SUCH AGENT WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AND THE LENDERS HAVE
BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BECAUSE OF, AMONG OTHER THINGS, SUCH BORROWER’S WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED HEREIN. 
 16.12. Consents, Amendments, Waivers, Etc. Any consent or approval required or permitted by this Credit Agreement to be given by the
Lenders may be given, and any term of this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may be amended, and the performance or observance by any of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries
of any terms of this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or such other instrument or the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively)
with, but only with, the written consent of the Borrowers and the written consent of the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, modification or waiver shall: 
 (a) without the written consent of the Borrowers and each Lender directly affected thereby: 
 (i) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or reduce the rate of interest on the Notes or the
amount of the Facility Fee or Letter of Credit Fees or eliminate indemnity rights in favor of such Lender; 
 (ii) increase
the amount of such Lender’s Commitment or extend the expiration date of such Lender’s Commitment; 
 (iii) postpone
or extend the Loan Maturity Date or any other regularly scheduled dates for payments of principal of, or interest on, the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations or any Fees or other amounts payable to such Lender, or extend the termination of any
Letters of Credit for which such Lender has a Letter of Credit Participation beyond the Loan Maturity Date; 
 (b) without the
written consent of all of the Lenders, release any of the Significant Subsidiaries from its guaranty obligations under the Guaranty to which it is a party (it being understood that this limitation shall not apply to any release related to
transactions permitted by §9.5), release BGI from its guaranty obligations under the BGI Guaranty, amend or waive this §16.12 or the definition of Required Lenders (it being understood that the addition of one or more additional credit
facilities, the allowance of the credit extensions, interest and fees thereunder to share ratably or on a subordinated basis with the Loans, Letters of Credit, interest and Fees in the 

  

 -80- 

 
benefits of the Loan Documents and the inclusion of the holders of such facilities in the determination of Required Lenders shall require only the approval
of the Required Lenders); 
 (c) without the written consent of each Lender, amend §1.5 or the definition of
“Alternative Currency”; and 
 (d) without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, amend or waive §14,
the amount or time of payment of the Administrative Agent’s Fee or any Letter of Credit Fees payable for the Administrative Agent’s account or any other provision applicable to the Administrative Agent. 
 No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing or delay or omission
on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. No notice to or demand upon the Borrowers shall entitle the Borrowers to other or further notice or
demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 16.13. Severability. The provisions of this Credit Agreement are severable and if
any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall
not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision of this Credit Agreement in any jurisdiction. 
 16.14. USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act
(Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address
of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Act. 
 16.15. Liability for the Obligations. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, BGI covenants and agrees that all Obligations with respect to all Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and any other Obligations payable to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall constitute the obligations of BGI
individually. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of any other Loan Document, Barnes Switzerland shall have
no liability for any Obligations other than the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, or for any other liability or obligation of BGI. 
 16.16.
Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which
in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any
such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated
in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Credit Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so
due in the Judgment Currency, the 
  

 -81- 

 Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment
Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent from any Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such
judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such
currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law). 
 17. TRANSITIONAL ARRANGEMENTS. 
 17.1. Existing Credit Agreement Superseded.
This Credit Agreement shall on the Closing Date supersede the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety, except as provided in this §17. On the Closing Date, the rights and obligations of the parties evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement
shall be evidenced by the Credit Agreement and all outstanding letters of credit issued by Bank of America for the account of BGI prior to the Closing Date (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) shall, for the
purposes of this Credit Agreement, be Letters of Credit. 
 17.2. Return and Cancellation of Notes. Upon receipt by any Lender
of its Notes hereunder on the Closing Date, any “Notes” of BGI held by such Lender pursuant to and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be no longer outstanding. As soon as reasonably practicable after its
receipt of its Notes hereunder on the Closing Date, each Lender will promptly return to BGI, marked “Substituted” or “Cancelled”, as the case may be, any notes of BGI held by such Lender pursuant to the Existing
Credit Agreement. 
 17.3. Interest and Fees Under Superseded Agreement. All interest and fees and expenses, if any, including
outstanding commitment fees, owing or accruing under or in respect of the Existing Credit Agreement through the Closing Date shall be calculated as of the Closing Date (prorated in the case of any fractional periods), and shall be paid as of the
Closing Date. Commencing on the Closing Date and all periods going forward, the Facility Fee shall be payable by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in accordance with §2.2.

 (a) prior to or on the Loan Maturity Date the principal amount of
                     [DOLLARS ($             )] or, if
less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans advanced by the Lender to the Borrower pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of June 23, 2006 (as amended and in effect from time to time,
the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the Lender, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and other parties thereto; 
 (b) the principal outstanding hereunder from time to time at the times provided in the Credit Agreement; and 
 (c) interest on the principal balance hereof from time to time outstanding from the Closing Date under the Credit Agreement through and
including the maturity date hereof at the times and at the rate provided in the Credit Agreement. 
 [This Third Amended and Restated
Revolving Credit Note (this “Note”) constitutes the amendment and restatement in its entirety of the Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note, dated as of January 11, 2006, issued by the Borrower to the Lender in the

 This Note evidences borrowings under and has been issued by the
Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. The Lender and any holder hereof is entitled to the benefits of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and may enforce the agreements of the Borrower contained therein, and
any holder hereof may exercise the respective remedies provided for thereby or otherwise available in respect thereof, all in accordance with the respective terms thereof. All capitalized terms used in this Note and not otherwise defined herein
shall have the same meanings herein as in the Credit Agreement. 
 The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Lender to make or cause to be
made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment of principal of this Note, an appropriate notation on the grid attached to this Note, or the continuation of such grid, or any
other similar record, including computer records, reflecting the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans set forth on the grid attached to this
Note, or the continuation of such grid, or any other similar record, including computer records, maintained by the Lender with respect to any Revolving Credit Loans shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing
and unpaid to the Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on any such grid, continuation or other record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under the Credit
Agreement to make payments of principal of and interest on this Note when due. 
 The Borrower has the right in certain circumstances and the
obligation under certain other circumstances to prepay the whole or part of the principal of this Note on the terms and conditions specified in the Credit Agreement. 
 If any one or more of the Events of Default shall occur, the entire unpaid principal amount of this Note and all of the unpaid interest accrued thereon may become or be declared due and payable in the manner and with
the effect provided in the Credit Agreement. 
 No delay or omission on the part of the Lender or any holder hereof in exercising any right
hereunder shall operate as a waiver of such right or of any other rights of the Lender or such holder, nor shall any delay, omission or waiver on any one occasion be deemed a bar or waiver of the same or any other right on any further occasion.

 The Borrower and every endorser and guarantor of this Note or the obligation represented hereby waives presentment, demand, notice,
protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note, and assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any
substitution, exchange or release of collateral and to the addition or release of any other party or person primarily or secondarily liable. 
 THIS NOTE AND THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWER HEREUNDER SHALL, PURSUANT TO NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW §5-1401, BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE BORROWER CONSENTS AND AGREES
THAT ANY SUIT FOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THIS NOTE MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR ANY FEDERAL COURT SITTING

 THEREIN AND CONSENTS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURT AND THE SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH SUIT BEING
MADE UPON THE BORROWER BY MAIL AT THE ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN §16.6 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT OR ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH SUIT IS BROUGHT IN

 Exhibit E 
 FORM OF 
 GUARANTY 
 GUARANTY, dated as of [                 ,
20    ], by [            ], a[an] [            ] (the
“Guarantor”) in favor of (i) BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as administrative agent (hereinafter, in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for itself and the other lending institutions (hereinafter,
collectively, the “Lenders”) which are or may become parties to a THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT dated as of June 23, 2006 (as amended and in effect from time to time, the
“Credit Agreement”), by and among Barnes Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (“BGI”), Barnes Group Switzerland GmbH, Nevis Branch, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Switzerland
(“Barnes Switzerland”, and together with BGI, collectively referred to herein as the “Company”), the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent, with KeyBank National Association and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as
co-syndication agents (the “Syndication Agents”) and LaSalle Bank National Association and The Governor and Company of The Bank of Ireland, as co-documentation agents (the “Documentation Agents”) and
(ii) each of the Lenders. 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Guarantor are members of a group of related corporations, the success of any
one of which is dependent in part on the success of the other members of such group; 
 WHEREAS, the Guarantor expects to receive
substantial direct and indirect benefits from the extensions of credit to the Company by the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement (which benefits are hereby acknowledged); and 
 WHEREAS, the Guarantor wishes to guaranty the Company’s obligations to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under or in respect of the
Credit Agreement as provided herein; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the Guarantor hereby agrees with the Lenders and the Administrative Agent as
follows: 
 1. Definitions. The term “Obligations” and all other capitalized terms used herein without
definition shall have the respective meanings provided therefor in the Credit Agreement. 
 2. Guaranty of Payment and
Performance. The Guarantor hereby guarantees to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent the full and punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by required pre-payment, by acceleration or otherwise), as well as the performance,
of all of the Obligations including all such which would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay pursuant to § 362(a) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code and the operation of §§ 502(b) and 506(b) of the Federal Bankruptcy
Code. This Guaranty is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guaranty of the full and punctual payment and performance of all of the Obligations and not of their collectibility only and is in no way conditioned upon any requirement that the
Administrative Agent or any Lender first attempt to collect any of the Obligations from the Company or resort to any collateral security or other means of obtaining payment. Should the Company default in the payment or performance of any of the
Obligations, the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder with respect to such Obligations in default shall, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, become immediately due and payable to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and
the Administrative Agent, without demand or notice of any nature, all of which are expressly waived by the Guarantor. Payments by the Guarantor hereunder may be required by the Administrative Agent on any number of occasions. All payments by the
Guarantor hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, in the manner and at the place of payment specified therefor in the Credit Agreement, for the account of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. 

 3. Guarantor’s Agreement to Pay Enforcement Costs, etc. The Guarantor further agrees,
as the principal obligor and not as a guarantor only, to pay, in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent, on demand, all costs and expenses (including court costs and legal expenses) incurred or expended by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in
connection with the Obligations, this Guaranty and the enforcement thereof, together with interest on amounts recoverable under this §3 from the time when such amounts become due until payment, whether before or after judgment, at the rate of
interest for overdue principal set forth in the Credit Agreement, provided that if such interest exceeds the maximum amount permitted to be paid under applicable law, then such interest shall be reduced to such maximum permitted amount.

 4. Waivers by Guarantor; Bank’s Freedom to Act. The Guarantor agrees that the Obligations will be paid and performed
strictly in accordance with their respective terms, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect thereto.
The Guarantor waives promptness, diligences, presentment, demand, protest, notice of acceptance, notice of any Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium
law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of the Company or any other entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the Obligations, and all suretyship
defenses generally. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor agrees to the provisions of any instrument evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any Obligation and agrees that the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company
or any other entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the Obligations; (ii) any extensions, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or renewals of any Obligation; (iii) any change in the time, place or
manner of payment of any of the Obligations or any rescissions, waivers, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or other amendments or modifications of any of the terms or provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan
Documents or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Obligations, (iv) the addition, substitution or release of any entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable for any Obligation;
(v) the adequacy of any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against any collateral security or other means of obtaining repayment of any of the Obligations; (vi) the impairment of any collateral securing any of the
Obligations, including without limitation the failure to perfect or preserve any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Lender might have in such collateral security or the substitution, exchange, surrender, release, loss or destruction of any
such collateral security; or (vii) any other act or omission which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise operate as a release or discharge of the Guarantor, all of which may be done without notice to
the Guarantor. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A) any “one action” or “anti-deficiency” law which would otherwise prevent the
Administrative Agent or any Lender from bringing any action, including any claim for a deficiency, or exercising any other right or remedy (including any right of set-off), against the Guarantor before or after the Administrative Agent’s or
such Lender’s commencement or completion of any foreclosure action, whether judicially, by exercise of power of sale or otherwise, or (B) any other law which in any other way would otherwise require any election of remedies by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender. 
 5. Unenforceability of Obligations Against Company. If for any reason the Company has no
legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Obligations, or if any of the Obligations have become irrecoverable from the Company by reason of the Company’s insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization or by other
operation of law or for any other reason, this Guaranty shall 
  

 -2- 

 nevertheless be binding on the Guarantor to the same extent as if the Guarantor at all times had been the principal
obligor on all such Obligations. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, or for any other reason, all such amounts otherwise subject
to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any Obligation shall be immediately due and payable by the
Guarantor. 
 6. Subrogation; Subordination. 
 6.1. Waiver of Rights Against Company. Until the final payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, the
Guarantor shall not exercise and hereby waives any rights against the Company arising as a result of payment by the Guarantor hereunder, by way of subrogation, reimbursement, restitution, contribution or otherwise, and will not prove any claim in
competition with the Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect of any payment hereunder in any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization case or proceedings of any nature; the Guarantor will not claim any setoff, recoupment or counterclaim
against the Company in respect of any liability of the Guarantor to the Company; and the Guarantor waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security which may be held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender. 

6.2. Subordination. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any indebtedness of the Company for money borrowed or
credit received now or hereafter owed to the Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of the Obligations. The Guarantor agrees that, while any default in the payment or performance of any of the Obligations exists, the
Guarantor will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of the Company to the Guarantor until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or such default ceases to exist. If, notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, the Guarantor shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness while any Obligations are still outstanding, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by the Guarantor as trustee for the Lenders and
the Administrative Agent and be paid over to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on account of the Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under the other
provisions of this Guaranty. 
 6.3. Provisions Supplemental. The provisions of this §6 shall be
supplemental to and not in derogation of any rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under any separate subordination agreement which the Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time enter into with the
Guarantor for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. 
 7. Setoff. Regardless of the adequacy of any
collateral security or other means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Guarantor (any such notice being
expressly waived by the Guarantor) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply such deposits and other sums against the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender
shall have made any demand under this Guaranty and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured. 
 8. Further
Assurances. The Guarantor agrees that it will from time to time, at the request of the Administrative Agent, do all such things and execute all such documents as the Administrative 
  

 -3- 

 Agent may consider necessary or desirable to give full effect to this Guaranty and to perfect and preserve the rights and
powers of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereunder. The Guarantor acknowledges and confirms that the Guarantor itself has established its own adequate means of obtaining from the Company on a continuing basis all information desired by the
Guarantor concerning the financial condition of the Company and that the Guarantor will look to the Company and not to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Guarantor to keep adequately informed of changes in the Company’s
financial condition. 
 9. Termination; Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the
Administrative Agent is given written notice of the Guarantor’s intention to discontinue this Guaranty, notwithstanding any intermediate or temporary payment or settlement of the whole or any part of the Obligations. No such notice shall be
effective unless received and acknowledged by an officer of the Administrative Agent at the address of the Administrative Agent for notices set forth in §16.6 of the Credit Agreement. No such notice shall affect any rights of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender hereunder, including without limitation the rights set forth in §§4 and 6, with respect to any Obligations incurred or accrued prior to the receipt of such notice or any Obligations incurred or accrued pursuant to any
contract or commitment in existence prior to such receipt. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, notwithstanding any such notice, if at any time any payment made or value received with respect to any Obligation is rescinded
or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made or value received. 
 10. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit
of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, each Lender may assign or otherwise transfer the Credit Agreement, the Note, the
other Loan Documents or any other agreement or note held by it evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Obligations, or sell participations in any interest therein, to any other entity or other person, and such other entity
or other person shall thereupon become vested, to the extent set forth in the agreement evidencing such assignment, transfer or participation, with all the rights in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein, all in accordance with §15 of
the Credit Agreement. The Guarantor may not assign any of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantor may assign its Obligations to the surviving entity in its merger with another domestic Subsidiary in accordance with
§9.5 of the Credit Agreement, provided that no Event of Default exists and is continuing under the Credit Agreement. 
 11.
Joinder Agreement and Affirmation. To the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, the Guarantor will cause each Subsidiary [(excluding any foreign Subsidiaries)] assigned any of the Guarantor’s
Obligations in accordance with §10, to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, (a) a Joinder Agreement and Affirmation in the form of Exhibit I attached
hereto, and (b) any other instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require, together with legal opinions in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to be delivered to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders opining as to authorization, validity and enforceability of such Guaranty. 
 12. Amendments and Waivers.
No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty nor consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders.
No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right 
  

 - 4 - 

 hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. 
 13. Notices. All notices and other communications
called for hereunder shall be made in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly made or given when delivered by hand or mailed first class, postage prepaid, or, in the case of telegraphic or
telexed notice, when transmitted, answer back received, addressed as follows: if to the Guarantor, at the address set forth beneath its signature hereto, and if to the Administrative Agent, at the address for notices to the Administrative Agent set
forth in §16.6 of the Credit Agreement, or at such address as either party may designate in writing to the other. 
 14. Governing
Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. THIS GUARANTY SHALL, PURSUANT TO NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW §5-1401, BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The Guarantor agrees that any suit for the
enforcement of this Guaranty may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or any federal court sitting therein and consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such court and to service of process in any such suit being made upon the
Guarantor by mail at the address specified by reference in §13. The Guarantor hereby waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such suit or any such court or that such suit was brought in an inconvenient court.

 15. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE GUARANTOR AND EACH OF THE BENEFICIARIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT
TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF SUCH RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS. Except as prohibited by law, the Guarantor hereby waives any right which
it may have to claim or recover in any litigation referred to in the preceding sentence any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages. The Guarantor (i) certifies that
neither the Administrative Agent or any Lender nor any representative, agent or attorney of the Administrative Agent or any Lender has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Administrative Agent or any Lender would not, in the event of
litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers and (ii) acknowledges that, in entering into the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders are relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications contained in this §15. 
 16. Miscellaneous.
This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement of the Guarantor with respect to the matters set forth herein. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or any other agreement, and this
Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guaranty of or collateral security for any of the Obligations. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more sections of this Guaranty shall not affect the validity or enforceability of its
remaining provisions. Captions are for the ease of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of the relevant provisions. The meanings of all defined terms used in this Guaranty shall be equally applicable to the singular and plural forms of
the terms defined.

Obligation; (v) the adequacy of any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against any collateral security or other means of obtaining repayment of any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations; (vi) the impairment of any
collateral securing any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, including without limitation the failure to perfect or preserve any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Lender might have in such collateral security or the substitution,
exchange, surrender, release, loss or destruction of any such collateral security; or (vii) any other act or omission which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise operate as a release or discharge of
the Guarantor, all of which may be done without notice to the Guarantor. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A) any “one action” or
“anti-deficiency” law which would otherwise prevent the Administrative Agent or any Lender from bringing any action, including any claim for a deficiency, or exercising any other right or remedy (including any right of set-off), against
the Guarantor before or after the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s commencement or completion of any foreclosure action, whether judicially, by exercise of power of sale or otherwise, or (B) any other law 
  

 - 2 - 

 which in any other way would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

 5. Unenforceability of Barnes Switzerland Obligations Against Company. If for any reason the Company has no legal existence
or is under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, or if any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations have become irrecoverable from the Company by reason of the Company’s insolvency, bankruptcy or
reorganization or by other operation of law or for any other reason, this BGI Guaranty shall nevertheless be binding on the Guarantor to the same extent as if the Guarantor at all times had been the principal obligor on all such Barnes Switzerland
Obligations. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, or for any other reason, all such amounts otherwise subject
to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any Barnes Switzerland Obligation shall be immediately due and
payable by the Guarantor. 
 6. Subrogation; Subordination. 
 6.1. Waiver of Rights Against Company. Until the final payment and performance in full of all of the Barnes Switzerland
Obligations, the Guarantor shall not exercise and hereby waives any rights against the Company arising as a result of payment by the Guarantor hereunder, by way of subrogation, reimbursement, restitution, contribution or otherwise, and will not
prove any claim in competition with the Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect of any payment hereunder in any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization case or proceedings of any nature; the Guarantor will not claim any setoff, recoupment or
counterclaim against the Company in respect of any liability of the Guarantor to the Company; and the Guarantor waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security which may be held by the Administrative Agent or any
Lender. 
 6.2. Subordination. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any indebtedness of the Company
for money borrowed or credit received now or hereafter owed to the Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations. The Guarantor agrees that, while any default in the payment or performance
of any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations exists, the Guarantor will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of the Company to the Guarantor until all of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations shall have been paid in
full or such default ceases to exist. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Guarantor shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness while any Barnes Switzerland Obligations are still outstanding, such
amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by the Guarantor as trustee for the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and be paid over to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on account of the
Barnes Switzerland Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under the other provisions of this BGI Guaranty. 
 6.3. Provisions Supplemental. The provisions of this §6 shall be supplemental to and not in derogation of any rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under any separate
subordination agreement which the Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time enter into with the Guarantor for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. 
  

 - 3 - 

 7. Setoff. Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral security or other means of
obtaining payment of any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Guarantor (any such notice being expressly waived by the
Guarantor) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply such deposits and other sums against the obligations of the Guarantor under this BGI Guaranty, whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any
demand under this BGI Guaranty and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured. 
 8. Further Assurances. The
Guarantor agrees that it will from time to time, at the request of the Administrative Agent, do all such things and execute all such documents as the Administrative Agent may consider necessary or desirable to give full effect to this BGI Guaranty
and to perfect and preserve the rights and powers of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereunder. The Guarantor acknowledges and confirms that the Guarantor itself has established its own adequate means of obtaining from the Company on a
continuing basis all information desired by the Guarantor concerning the financial condition of the Company and that the Guarantor will look to the Company and not to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Guarantor to keep
adequately informed of changes in the Company’s financial condition. 
 9. Termination; Reinstatement. This BGI Guaranty
shall remain in full force and effect until the Administrative Agent is given written notice of the Guarantor’s intention to discontinue this BGI Guaranty, notwithstanding any intermediate or temporary payment or settlement of the whole or any
part of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations. No such notice shall be effective unless received and acknowledged by an officer of the Administrative Agent at the address of the Administrative Agent for notices set forth in §16.6 of the Credit
Agreement. No such notice shall affect any rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder, including without limitation the rights set forth in §§4 and 6, with respect to any Barnes Switzerland Obligations incurred or accrued
prior to the receipt of such notice or any Barnes Switzerland Obligations incurred or accrued pursuant to any contract or commitment in existence prior to such receipt. This BGI Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated,
notwithstanding any such notice, if at any time any payment made or value received with respect to any Barnes Switzerland Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy
or reorganization of the Company, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made or value received. 
 10. Successors and
Assigns. This BGI Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing sentence, each Lender may assign or otherwise transfer the Credit Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or note held by it evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection
with the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, or sell participations in any interest therein, to any other entity or other person, and such other entity or other person shall thereupon become vested, to the extent set forth in the agreement evidencing
such assignment, transfer or participation, with all the rights in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein, all in accordance with §15 of the Credit Agreement. The Guarantor may not assign any of its obligations hereunder. 
 11. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this BGI Guaranty nor consent to any departure by the Guarantor
therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. 
  

 - 4 - 

 12. Notices. All notices and other communications called for hereunder shall be made in
writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly made or given when delivered by hand or mailed first class, postage prepaid, or, in the case of telegraphic or telexed notice, when transmitted, answer
back received, addressed as follows: if to the Guarantor, at the address set forth beneath its signature hereto, and if to the Administrative Agent, at the address for notices to the Administrative Agent set forth in §16.6 of the Credit
Agreement, or at such address as either party may designate in writing to the other. 
 13. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.
THIS BGI GUARANTY SHALL, PURSUANT TO NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW §5-1401, BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The Guarantor agrees that any suit for the enforcement of this BGI Guaranty may
be brought in the courts of the State of New York or any federal court sitting therein and consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such court and to service of process in any such suit being made upon the Guarantor by mail at the address
specified by reference in §12. The Guarantor hereby waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such suit or any such court or that such suit was brought in an inconvenient court. 
 14. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE GUARANTOR AND EACH OF THE BENEFICIARIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY
ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS BGI GUARANTY, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF SUCH RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS. Except as prohibited by law, the Guarantor hereby waives any right
which it may have to claim or recover in any litigation referred to in the preceding sentence any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages. The Guarantor (i) certifies
that neither the Administrative Agent or any Lender nor any representative, agent or attorney of the Administrative Agent or any Lender has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Administrative Agent or any Lender would not, in the event of
litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers and (ii) acknowledges that, in entering into the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders are relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications contained in this §14. 
 15. Miscellaneous.
This BGI Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement of the Guarantor with respect to the matters set forth herein. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or any other agreement, and
this BGI Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guaranty of or collateral security for any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more sections of this BGI Guaranty shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of its remaining provisions. Captions are for the ease of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of the relevant provisions. The meanings of all defined terms used in this BGI Guaranty shall be equally applicable to the
singular and plural forms of the terms defined.

 Schedule 1-A 
 Mandatory Cost Formulae 
 1. The Mandatory Cost (to the extent applicable) is an addition to
the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with: 
 (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial
Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions); or 
 (b) the requirements of the
European Central Bank. 
 2. On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Administrative Agent shall
calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the
Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum. The Administrative Agent will, at the request of either of the
Borrowers or any Lender, deliver to such Borrower or such Lender as the case may be, a statement setting forth the calculation of any Mandatory Cost. 
 3. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Eurocurrency Lending Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent. This percentage will be
certified by such Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of such Lender’s participation in all Loans made from such Eurocurrency Lending Office) of complying
with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of Loans made from that Eurocurrency Lending Office. 
 4. The
Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Eurocurrency Lending Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows: 
 (a) in relation to any Loan in Sterling: 
  

			
	 AB+C(B-D)+E x 0.01
  
	 	per cent per annum
	100 - (A+C)	 

 (b) in relation to any Loan in any currency other than Sterling: 
  

			
	 E x 0.01
  
	 	per cent per annum
	300	 

 Where: 
 “A” is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with
the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements. 

 “B” is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin, the Mandatory Cost and
any interest charged on overdue amounts pursuant to §5.10) payable for the relevant Interest Period of such Loan. 
 “C” is
the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England. 
 “D” is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits. 
 “E” is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the
average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000. 
 5. For the purposes of this Schedule: 
 (a)
“Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England; 
 (b) “Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in
force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits; 
 (c) “Fee Tariffs” means the fee
tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and 
 (d) “Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules. 
 6. In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5% will be included in the formula as
5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. 
 7. If requested by the Administrative Agent
or either Borrower, each Lender with a Eurocurrency Lending Office in the United Kingdom or a Participating Member State shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Administrative Agent and such
Borrower, the rate of charge payable by such Lender to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by such Lender as being the
average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to such Lender for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of such Lender. 
 8. Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following
information in writing on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender: 
 (a) the jurisdiction of the Eurocurrency Lending Office out of
which it is making available its participation in the relevant Loan; and 

 (b) any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

 Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this
paragraph. 
 9. The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Lender for the purpose of E
above shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each
Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Eurocurrency Lending Office in the same jurisdiction as its Eurocurrency Lending
Office. 
 10. The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any Person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which
over- or under-compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects. 
 11. The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the
Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above. 
 12. Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and
binding on all parties hereto. 
 13. The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with BGI and the Lenders, determine
and notify to all parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or
the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto. 

 Schedule 15.1 
 Assignment Fee 
 The Administrative Agent will charge a processing and recordation fee (an “Assignment
Fee”) in the amount of $2,500 for each assignment; provided, however, that in the event of two or more concurrent assignments to members of the same Assignee Group (which may be effected by a suballocation of an assigned
amount among members of such Assignee Group) or two or more concurrent assignments by members of the same Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group), the Assignment Fee will be $2,500
plus the amount set forth below: 
  

				
	 Transaction:
	  	Assignment Fee:
	First four concurrent assignments or suballocations to members of an Assignee Group (or from members of an Assignee Group, as applicable)	  	 	-0-
		
	Each additional concurrent assignment or suballocation to a member of such Assignee Group (or from a member of such Assignee Group, as applicable)	  	$	500

 For purposes hereof, “Assignee Group” means two or more Eligible Assignees that are Affiliates of one
another or two or more Approved Funds managed by the same investment advisor.Guaranty of the Company, dated June 23, 2006

 Exhibit 4.1(ii) 
 BGI GUARANTY 
 BGI GUARANTY, dated as of June 23, 2006, by BARNES GROUP
INC., a Delaware Corporation (“BGI” and the “Guarantor”) in favor of (i) BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as Administrative Agent (hereinafter, in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”)
for itself and the other lending institutions (hereinafter, collectively, the “Lenders”) which are or may become parties to a THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT dated as of June 23, 2006 (as amended
and in effect from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among BGI, Barnes Group Switzerland GmbH, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Switzerland (“Barnes Switzerland”, and the
“Company”), the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent, with KeyBank National Association and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as co-syndication agents (the “Syndication Agents”) and LaSalle Bank National Association and
The Governor and Company of The Bank of Ireland as co-documentation agents (the “Documentation Agents”) and (ii) each of the Lenders. 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Guarantor are members of a group of related corporations, the success of any one of which is dependent in part on the success of the other members of such group; 
 WHEREAS, the Guarantor expects to receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the extensions of credit to the Company by the Lenders
pursuant to the Credit Agreement (which benefits are hereby acknowledged); and 
 WHEREAS, the Guarantor wishes to guaranty the
Company’s obligations to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under or in respect of the Credit Agreement as provided herein; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the Guarantor hereby agrees with the Lenders and the Administrative Agent as follows: 
 1.
Definitions. The term “Barnes Switzerland Obligations” and all other capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings provided therefor in the Credit Agreement. 
 2. Guaranty of Payment and Performance. The Guarantor hereby guarantees to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent the full and punctual payment
when due (whether at stated maturity, by required pre-payment, by acceleration or otherwise), as well as the performance, of all of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations including all such which would become due but for the operation of the automatic
stay pursuant to § 362(a) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code and the operation of §§ 502(b) and 506(b) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. This BGI Guaranty is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guaranty of the full and punctual
payment and performance of all of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations and not of their collectibility only and is in no way conditioned upon any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender first attempt to collect any of the Barnes
Switzerland Obligations from the Company or resort to any collateral security or other means of obtaining payment. Should the Company default in the payment or performance of any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder with respect to such Barnes Switzerland Obligations in default shall, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, become immediately due and payable to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent, without demand or notice of any nature, all of which are expressly waived by the Guarantor. Payments by the Guarantor hereunder may be required by the Administrative Agent on any number of occasions. All payments by the Guarantor hereunder
shall be made to the Administrative Agent, in the manner and at the place of payment specified therefor in the Credit Agreement, for the account of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. 

 -2- 
  

 3. Guarantor’s Agreement to Pay Enforcement Costs, etc. The Guarantor further agrees,
as the principal obligor and not as a guarantor only, to pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, in Dollars, all costs and expenses (including court costs and legal expenses) incurred or expended by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in
connection with the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, this BGI Guaranty and the enforcement thereof, together with interest on amounts recoverable under this §3 from the time when such amounts become due until payment, whether before or after
judgment, at the rate of interest for overdue principal set forth in the Credit Agreement, provided that if such interest exceeds the maximum amount permitted to be paid under applicable law, then such interest shall be reduced to such
maximum permitted amount. 
 4. Waivers by Guarantor; Bank’s Freedom to Act. The Guarantor agrees that the Barnes
Switzerland Obligations will be paid and performed strictly in accordance with their respective terms, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect thereto. The Guarantor waives promptness, diligences, presentment, demand, protest, notice of acceptance, notice of any Barnes Switzerland Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind, all
defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of the Company or any other entity or other person primarily or
secondarily liable with respect to any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, and all suretyship defenses generally. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor agrees to the provisions of any instrument evidencing, securing or
otherwise executed in connection with any Barnes Switzerland Obligation and agrees that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations;
(ii) any extensions, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or renewals of any Barnes Switzerland Obligation; (iii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations or any rescissions,
waivers, compromise, refinancing, consolidation or other amendments or modifications of any of the terms or provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise
executed in connection with any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, (iv) the addition, substitution or release of any entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable for any Barnes Switzerland Obligation; (v) the adequacy of any
rights which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against any collateral security or other means of obtaining repayment of any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations; (vi) the impairment of any collateral securing any of the Barnes
Switzerland Obligations, including without limitation the failure to perfect or preserve any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Lender might have in such collateral security or the substitution, exchange, surrender, release, loss or
destruction of any such collateral security; or (vii) any other act or omission which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise operate as a release or discharge of the Guarantor, all of which may be done
without notice to the Guarantor. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A) any “one action” or “anti-deficiency” law which would
otherwise prevent the Administrative Agent or any Lender from bringing any action, including any claim for a deficiency, or exercising any other right or remedy (including any right of set-off), against the Guarantor before or after the
Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s commencement or completion of any foreclosure action, whether judicially, by exercise of power of sale or otherwise, or (B) any other law which in any other way would otherwise require any
election of remedies by the Administrative Agent or any Lender. 
 5. Unenforceability of Barnes Switzerland Obligations Against Company. If
for any reason the Company has no legal existence or is under no legal obligation to discharge any of the Barnes 

 -3- 
  

 
Switzerland Obligations, or if any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations have become irrecoverable from the Company by reason of the Company’s
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization or by other operation of law or for any other reason, this BGI Guaranty shall nevertheless be binding on the Guarantor to the same extent as if the Guarantor at all times had been the principal obligor on all
such Barnes Switzerland Obligations. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, or for any other reason, all such
amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any Barnes Switzerland Obligation shall
be immediately due and payable by the Guarantor. 
 6. Subrogation; Subordination. 
 6.1. Waiver of Rights Against Company. Until the final payment and performance in full of all of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, the
Guarantor shall not exercise and hereby waives any rights against the Company arising as a result of payment by the Guarantor hereunder, by way of subrogation, reimbursement, restitution, contribution or otherwise, and will not prove any claim in
competition with the Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect of any payment hereunder in any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization case or proceedings of any nature; the Guarantor will not claim any setoff, recoupment or counterclaim
against the Company in respect of any liability of the Guarantor to the Company; and the Guarantor waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security which may be held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender. 

6.2. Subordination. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any indebtedness of the Company for money borrowed or credit received
now or hereafter owed to the Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations. The Guarantor agrees that, while any default in the payment or performance of any of the Barnes Switzerland
Obligations exists, the Guarantor will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of the Company to the Guarantor until all of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations shall have been paid in full or such default ceases to
exist. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Guarantor shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness while any Barnes Switzerland Obligations are still outstanding, such amounts shall be collected, enforced
and received by the Guarantor as trustee for the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and be paid over to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on account of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations without
affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under the other provisions of this BGI Guaranty. 
 6.3. Provisions
Supplemental. The provisions of this §6 shall be supplemental to and not in derogation of any rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under any separate subordination agreement which the Administrative Agent may
at any time and from time to time enter into with the Guarantor for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. 
 7.
Setoff. Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral security or other means of obtaining payment of any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders is hereby authorized at any time and from
time to time, without notice to the Guarantor (any such notice being expressly waived by the Guarantor) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply such deposits and other sums against the obligations of the Guarantor under this
BGI Guaranty, whether 

 -4- 
  

 
or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under this BGI Guaranty and although such obligations may be contingent or
unmatured. 
 8. Further Assurances. The Guarantor agrees that it will from time to time, at the request of the Administrative
Agent, do all such things and execute all such documents as the Administrative Agent may consider necessary or desirable to give full effect to this BGI Guaranty and to perfect and preserve the rights and powers of the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent hereunder. The Guarantor acknowledges and confirms that the Guarantor itself has established its own adequate means of obtaining from the Company on a continuing basis all information desired by the Guarantor concerning the financial condition
of the Company and that the Guarantor will look to the Company and not to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Guarantor to keep adequately informed of changes in the Company’s financial condition. 
 9. Termination; Reinstatement. This BGI Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the Administrative Agent is given written
notice of the Guarantor’s intention to discontinue this BGI Guaranty, notwithstanding any intermediate or temporary payment or settlement of the whole or any part of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations. No such notice shall be effective unless
received and acknowledged by an officer of the Administrative Agent at the address of the Administrative Agent for notices set forth in §16.6 of the Credit Agreement. No such notice shall affect any rights of the Administrative Agent or any
Lender hereunder, including without limitation the rights set forth in §§4 and 6, with respect to any Barnes Switzerland Obligations incurred or accrued prior to the receipt of such notice or any Barnes Switzerland Obligations incurred or
accrued pursuant to any contract or commitment in existence prior to such receipt. This BGI Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, notwithstanding any such notice, if at any time any payment made or value received with respect to
any Barnes Switzerland Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made or
value received. 
 10. Successors and Assigns. This BGI Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantor, its successors and
assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, each Lender may assign or otherwise transfer the
Credit Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or note held by it evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Barnes Switzerland Obligations, or sell participations in any interest therein,
to any other entity or other person, and such other entity or other person shall thereupon become vested, to the extent set forth in the agreement evidencing such assignment, transfer or participation, with all the rights in respect thereof granted
to such Lender herein, all in accordance with §15 of the Credit Agreement. The Guarantor may not assign any of its obligations hereunder. 
 11. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this BGI Guaranty nor consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the
Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. 
 12.
Notices. All notices and other communications called for hereunder shall be made in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly made or given when delivered by hand or mailed first class,
postage prepaid, or, in the case of telegraphic or telexed notice, when transmitted, answer back received, addressed as follows: if to the Guarantor, at the 

 -5- 
  

 
address set forth beneath its signature hereto, and if to the Administrative Agent, at the address for notices to the Administrative Agent set forth in
§16.6 of the Credit Agreement, or at such address as either party may designate in writing to the other. 
 13. Governing Law;
Consent to Jurisdiction. THIS BGI GUARANTY SHALL, PURSUANT TO NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW §5-1401, BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. The Guarantor agrees that any suit for the
enforcement of this BGI Guaranty may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or any federal court sitting therein and consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such court and to service of process in any such suit being made upon the
Guarantor by mail at the address specified by reference in §12. The Guarantor hereby waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such suit or any such court or that such suit was brought in an inconvenient court.

 14. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE GUARANTOR AND EACH OF THE BENEFICIARIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH
RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS BGI GUARANTY, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY OF SUCH RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS. Except as prohibited by law, the Guarantor hereby waives
any right which it may have to claim or recover in any litigation referred to in the preceding sentence any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages. The Guarantor
(i) certifies that neither the Administrative Agent or any Lender nor any representative, agent or attorney of the Administrative Agent or any Lender has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the Administrative Agent or any Lender would
not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers and (ii) acknowledges that, in entering into the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party, the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders are relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications contained in this §14. 
 15.
Miscellaneous. This BGI Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement of the Guarantor with respect to the matters set forth herein. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or
any other agreement, and this BGI Guaranty shall be in addition to any other guaranty of or collateral security for any of the Barnes Switzerland Obligations. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one or more sections of this BGI Guaranty shall
not affect the validity or enforceability of its remaining provisions. Captions are for the ease of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of the relevant provisions. The meanings of all defined terms used in this BGI Guaranty shall be
equally applicable to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined.
