Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and any Note evidencing such Loan, the Type of such Loan and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and
payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 2.8(b) shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the
Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 (e) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will promptly execute and deliver
to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower evidencing any Term Loans of such Lender, substantially in the forms of Exhibit G (a “US Term Note”), with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount; provided,
that delivery of Notes shall not be a condition precedent to the occurrence of the Closing Date or the making of the Loans on the Closing Date and the obligations of the Borrower in respect of the Term Loans shall be enforceable in accordance with
the Loan Documents whether or not evidenced by any Note. 
 2.9 Fees, etc. 
 (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Arrangers the fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by Holdings and the Arrangers.

 (b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates from time to time agreed to in writing
by Holdings and the Administrative Agent. 
 2.10 [Reserved]. 
 2.11 Optional Prepayments. 

 27 
  

 (a) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without
premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days prior thereto in the case of Eurodollar Loans and at least one Business Day prior thereto in the case of Base Rate Loans, which notice
shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, and whether such prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans; provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.21. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in
such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Term Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple
thereof 
 (b) Each optional prepayment in respect of the Term Loans on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date shall be
accompanied by a prepayment premium equal to (i) if such prepayment is made prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, 102% of the principal amount of such prepayment and (ii) if such prepayment is made on or after the first
anniversary of the Closing Date and on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, 101% of the principal amount of such prepayment. Any prepayment of the Loans upon the refinancing thereof (whether with proceeds of equity or Indebtedness
or otherwise) or upon the occurrence of a Change of Control shall be deemed to be an optional prepayment. 
 2.12 Mandatory Prepayments
and Commitment Reductions. 
 (a) If any Capital Stock shall be issued (other than a Permitted Issuance), by Holdings or the Borrower,
then, on the date of such issuance, the Term Loans shall be prepaid by an amount equal to 100% of the amount of the Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance. The provisions of this Section 2.12 do not constitute consent to the issuance of any equity
securities by any entity whose equity securities are pledged pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. 
 (b) If any Indebtedness
shall be incurred by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor (excluding any Indebtedness incurred in accordance with Section 7.2), then on the date of such issuance or incurrence, the Term Loans shall be prepaid by an amount equal to
the amount of the Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance or incurrence. The provisions of this Section 2.12 do not constitute consent to the incurrence of any Indebtedness by Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

 (c) If on any date Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or
Recovery Event which yields Net Cash Proceeds (valued at the initial principal amount thereof in the case of non-cash proceeds consisting of notes or other debt securities and valued at fair market value in the case of other non-cash proceeds) in
excess of $5,000,000 (“Threshold”), then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, on the date of receipt by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor of such Net Cash Proceeds, the Term Loans
shall be prepaid by an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales that may be excluded from the foregoing 

 28 
  

 
requirement pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not exceed $35,000,000 at any time and (ii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date the Term Loans
shall be prepaid by an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event. The provisions set forth in this Section do not constitute consent to the consummation of any Disposition permitted by
Section 7.5. 
 (d) If, for any fiscal year of Holdings commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008, there shall be
Excess Cash Flow, then, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, the Term Loans shall be prepaid by an amount equal to the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow. Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow
Application Date”) no later than five days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are
required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the date such financial statements are actually delivered. 
 (e) Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 2.12 to the contrary, no mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans shall be required prior to the Discharge of First Lien Obligations, so long as all Net Cash Proceeds and Excess Cash Flow are applied as set forth in the
First Lien Credit Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date. 
 2.13 Conversion and Continuation Options. 
 (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business
Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may be made only on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Base
Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no
Base Rate Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have, determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such
conversions or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of the Facility. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

 (b) The Borrower may elect to continue any Eurodollar Loan as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect
thereto by giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such
Loans, provided that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have, determined in its or their sole discretion not
to permit such continuations or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of the Facility, and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as
described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Loans shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any
such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 

 29 
  

 2.14 Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and optional prepayments of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving
effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten Eurodollar Tranches shall be
outstanding under this Agreement at any one time. 
 2.15 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. 
 (a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar
Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day. 
 (b) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for each day
on which it is outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day. 
 (c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest, to the extent legally permitted, at a
rate per annum that is equal to (x) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2.0%, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any
Loan or any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to
Base Rate Loans under the Facility plus 2.0%, in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment) or waived. 
 (d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this
Section shall be payable from time to time on demand. 
 2.16 Computation of Interest and Fees. 
 (a) Interest, fees and commissions payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that,
with respect to Base Rate Loans on which interest is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative
Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements
shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each
such change in interest rate. 

 30 
  

 (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the
Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.15(a). 
 2.17 Inability to Determine Interest Rate.
If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination
shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or

 (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or
to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, 
 the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is
given (x) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (y) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans
shall be continued as Base Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the
Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans to Eurodollar Loans. 
 2.18 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. 
 (a) The borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder
shall be made pro rata according to the respective Term Loan Percentages of the relevant Lenders. Each payment (other than prepayments) in respect of principal or interest in respect of Term Loans and each payment in respect of fees or
expenses payable hereunder shall be applied to the amounts pro rata according to the amounts then due and owing to the Lenders. 
 (b) Each payment (including each prepayment) of the Term Loans outstanding shall be allocated among the Term Loan Lenders holding Term Loans pro rata based on the principal amount of such Term Loans held by such Term Loan Lenders, and shall
be applied to the remaining outstanding principal of the Term Loans. Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed. 
 (c) [Reserved]. 

 31 
  

 (d) The application of any payment of Loans (including optional and mandatory prepayments) shall be made,
first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Each payment of the Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount paid. 
 (e) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be
made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Lenders, at the Payment Office, in Dollars and in immediately
available funds. Any payment made by the Borrower after 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been on the next following Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders
promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.
If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into
another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the
then applicable rate during such extension. 
 (f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to
a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative
Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor,
such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the
Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not
made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base
Rate Loans, on demand, from the Borrower. 
 (g) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to
the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent
may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower
within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest 

 32 
  

 
thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower. 
 2.19 Requirements of Law. 
 (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the Closing Date: 
 (i) shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except
for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.20 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender); 
 (ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit
by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate hereunder; or 
 (iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans, or to reduce
any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender on an after-tax basis for such increased cost or
reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify the Borrower in a certificate providing reasonable detail (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the
event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 
 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any
Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the
force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the Closing Date shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level
below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed
by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a certificate providing reasonable detail of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled
and a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction on an after-tax basis. 

 33 
  

 (c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender
to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and
all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 The Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased
costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the adoption of change in any Requirement of Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to
claim compensation therefore. 
 2.20 Taxes. 
 (a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future
income, profits, gains, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld, deducted or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes
and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between such Arranger, such Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental
Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from such Arranger’s, such Agent’s or such Lender’s having executed, delivered or performed
its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or any
Other Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from any amounts payable to any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the amounts so payable to such Arranger, such Agent or such Lender shall be increased
to the extent necessary to yield to such Arranger, such Agent or such Lender (after deduction, withholding or payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document at
the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement or under another Loan Document (as appropriate); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Arranger, any Agent or any
Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Arranger’s, such Agent’s or such Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (d) of this Section or (ii) that are United
States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Arranger, such Agent or such Lender (solely at the time of the initial assignment, other than any Lender that becomes a Lender pursuant to section 2.24) at the time such Arranger, such
Agent or such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that such Arranger’s, such Agent’s or such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the
Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this paragraph (a). The Borrower or Guarantor shall make any required withholding or deduction and pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant tax authority or other
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law. 

 34 
  

 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by or on behalf of the Borrower, as
promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Arranger, Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing
payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower
shall indemnify the Arrangers, the Agents and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this Section shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 (d) Each Lender (or Transferee)
that is not a citizen or resident of the United States of America, a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States of America (or any jurisdiction thereof), or any estate or trust that is
subject to federal income taxation regardless of the source of its income (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall
have been purchased) two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with
respect to payments of “portfolio interest” a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit I to the effect that such Lender is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of U.S. taxes under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the
Code and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the
Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (and in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant
purchases the related participation). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Administrative Agent (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such
purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver. 
 (e) [Reserved]. 
 (f) [Reserved].

 35 
  

 (g) In order to prevent US backup withholding, each Lender that is a “United States person”
within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, on or before the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, two copies of the Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or any successor or other
form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service. 
 (h) [Reserved]. 
 (i) [Reserved]. 
 (j) [Reserved].

 (k) If an Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as
to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made,
or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent or such Lender and without interest (other
than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of such Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties,
interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Agent or such Lender in the event such Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to
require any Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 
 2.21 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each US Term Lender for, and to hold each US Term Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that
such US Term Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment or conversion of
Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so
prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or
continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over
(ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurodollar market. A
certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans
and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

 36 
  

 2.22 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in
any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar
Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be canceled and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate
Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then
current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.21. 
 2.23 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.19, 2.20(a) and (b) or 2.22 with respect to such Lender, it will, if
requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event;
provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, will not cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer any unreimbursed costs and expenses or legal or regulatory disadvantage. 
 2.24 Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests
reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.19 or 2.20 or gives a notice of illegality pursuant to Section 2.22, (b) defaults in its obligation to make Loans hereunder, with a replacement financial institution or
(c) fails to approve an amendment or waiver to this Agreement requiring the consent of all Lenders, which amendment or waiver is approved by the Required Lenders; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any
Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) with respect to clause (a) above, prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under
Section 2.23 so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.19 or 2.20 or to eliminate the illegality referred to in such notice of illegality given pursuant to Section 2.22, (iv) the

Documents, the Acquisition Documentation, the First Lien Documentation and the Revolving Loan Agreement to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to borrow hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate or other action

or the Revolving Loan Agreement except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.4, which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, other than any

 39 
  

 
enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 
 4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Acquisition Documentation, the
borrowings hereunder and under the First Lien Credit Agreement and the use of the proceeds thereof will not (i) violate any Governing Documents, (ii) violate any Requirement of Law or any material Contractual Obligation of Holdings, the

Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or the Borrower, or threatened by or against Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) which
would in any material respect impair the enforceability of the Loan Documents, taken as a whole, or (b) that has a reasonable chance of being adversely determined and, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 4.7 No Default. Neither Holdings, the Borrower nor any of their respective Subsidiaries is in default under or with
respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 4.8 Ownership of Property; Liens. Each of the Loan Parties owns, legally and beneficially, and has good and insurable title in fee simple to all
of its owned Real Estate, or a valid leasehold interest in, or good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, or a right to use, all its other tangible Property material to its business, and none of such Property is subject to any Lien except for
Permitted Liens (including any minor defects in title which do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such Property for its intended purpose). None of the Pledged Stock is subject to any Lien
except for Permitted Liens. 
 4.9 Intellectual Property. Each of the Loan Parties owns, or is licensed to use, the Intellectual
Property used in the conduct of its business as currently conducted. No material claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any Intellectual Property by a Loan Party or the validity or effectiveness of
any Intellectual Property owned by a Loan Party, nor does Holdings or the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim. To the knowledge of the Loan Parties, the use of Intellectual Property by the Loan Parties does not infringe on the rights
of any Person in any material respect. 
 4.10 Taxes. Each of Holdings, the Borrower and each of their respective Subsidiaries has
filed or caused to be filed all Federal, state, provincial and other material tax 

 40 
  

 
returns that are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its
Property and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its Property by any Governmental Authority in any jurisdiction (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP or other applicable accounting standard have been provided on the books of Holdings, the Borrower or their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be). 
 4.11 Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loans will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin
stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and from time to time hereafter in effect or for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board. If requested by any Lender or
the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1 referred to in Regulation U. 
 4.12 Labor Matters. There are no strikes, stoppages or slowdowns or other labor disputes against Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective
Subsidiaries pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or the Borrower, threatened (other than employee grievances arising in the ordinary course of business) that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Hours worked by and payment made to employees of Holdings, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters
that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or adversely affect any of the Collateral. All payments due from Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries on account of
employee health and welfare insurance that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect if not paid have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of Holdings, the Borrower or the relevant
Subsidiary. 
 4.13 Pension and Benefit Plans. ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding
deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan
has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. On and after the
effectiveness of the Pension Act, each Plan that is subject to Title IV of ERISA has satisfied the minimum funding standards (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) applicable to such Plan, and there has
been no determination that any such Plan is, or is expected to be, in “at risk” status (within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA). The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to
fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. Neither the
Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither the Borrower nor any

 41 
  

 
Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any material liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw
completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent or in endangered or critical status,
within the meaning of Section 432 of the Code or Section 305 of ERISA or Title IV of ERISA. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity is or is reason ably expected to be subject to any material liability with respect to any
“employee benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA). All Non-U.S. Plans are operated in material compliance with all applicable foreign laws, each Loan Party which contributes to a Non-U.S. Plan has paid all required
contributions to such Non-U.S. Plan as they fall due, and no action or omission has been or is expected to be taken by any Loan Party nor has any event occurred in relation to a Non-U.S. Plan which has or is reasonably likely to result in liability
to any Loan Party to an Governmental Authority. 
 4.14 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an
“investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No Loan Party is subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law
(other than Regulation X of the Board) which limits its ability to incur Indebtedness. 
 4.15 Subsidiaries. 
 (a) The Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 4.15 constitute all the Subsidiaries of Holdings as of the Closing Date. Schedule 4.15 sets forth as of the
Closing Date and after giving effect to the Acquisition, the exact legal name (as reflected on the certificate of incorporation (or formation) and jurisdiction of incorporation (or formation) of each Subsidiary of Holdings and, as to each such
Subsidiary, the percentage and number of each class of Capital Stock owned by each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries. 
 (b) There are no
outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Subsidiary of Holdings.

 4.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Term Loans made on the Closing Date shall be applied by the Borrower first, to the extent
the proceeds of the First Lien Loans are not sufficient therefor, to refinance the Existing Indebtedness and pay costs and expenses of the Transactions, second, to the extent the proceeds of the First Lien Loans are not sufficient therefor, to pay
the consideration for the Acquisition, and third, to pay a portion of the Equity Investment. 
 4.17 Environmental Matters. Other than
exceptions to any of the following that could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: 
 (a) Holdings, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries: (i) are, and within the period of all applicable statutes of limitation have been, in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws;
(ii) hold all Environmental Permits (each of which is in 

 42 
  

 
full force and effect) required for any of their operations or for any property owned, leased, or otherwise operated by any of them; and (iii) are, and
within the period of all applicable statutes of limitation have been, in compliance with all of their Environmental Permits. 
 (b) Materials of Environmental Concern are not present at, on, under, in, or about any Real Estate, or other property now or formerly owned, leased or operated by Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or at any
other location (including, without limitation, any location to which Materials of Environmental Concern have been sent for re-use or recycling or for treatment, storage, or disposal) which could reasonably be expected to (i) give rise to
liability of Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries under any applicable Environmental Law or otherwise result in costs to Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or (ii) interfere with Holdings,
the Borrower’s, the Cayman Borrower’s or any of their respective Subsidiaries’ continued operations. 
 (c)
There is no judicial, administrative, or arbitral proceeding (including any notice of violation or alleged violation) under or relating to any Environmental Law to which Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries is, or to the
knowledge of Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries will be, named as a party that is pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries, threatened. 
 (d) Neither Holdings, the Borrower nor any of their respective Subsidiaries has received any written request for information, or been
notified that it is a potentially responsible party under or relating to the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act or any similar Environmental Law, or with respect to any Materials of Environmental Concern.

 (e) Neither Holdings, the Borrower nor any of their respective Subsidiaries has entered into or agreed to any consent
decree, order, or settlement or other agreement, or is subject to any judgment, decree, or order or other agreement, in any judicial, administrative, arbitral, or other forum for dispute resolution, relating to compliance with or liability under any
Environmental Law. 
 (f) Neither Holdings, the Borrower nor any of their respective Subsidiaries has assumed or retained, by
contract or operation of law, any liabilities of any kind, fixed or contingent, known or unknown, under any Environmental Law or with respect to any Material of Environmental Concern. 
 4.18 Accuracy of Information, etc. No written statement or information (other than the projections and pro forma financial
information) contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Confidential Information Memorandum or any other document, certificate or statement furnished to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Agents or the Lenders or any of
them, by or on behalf of any Loan Party for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, taken as a whole, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so
furnished (or, in the case of 

 43 
  

 
the Confidential Information Memorandum, as of the date of this Agreement), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading. The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by
management of Holdings and the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or
periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount. 
 4.19
Security Documents. 
 (a) The Security Documents are, or as applicable, will be on execution, effective to create in favor of the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a valid security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds and products thereof. In the case of the Pledged Stock described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or in
any Foreign Security Agreement, when stock certificates representing such Pledged Stock are delivered to the Administrative Agent in the case of the Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or the Foreign Security Agreements,
when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19(a)-1 (which financing statements may be filed by the Administrative Agent at any time) and such other filings and actions as are specified on Schedule
3 to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement have been completed (all of which filings may be filed by the Administrative Agent at any time), the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the Foreign Security Agreements shall constitute a fully
perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds and products thereof, as security for the US Obligations, in each case constituting a First Priority Lien. Schedule
4.19(a)-2 lists each UCC Financing Statement that (i) names any Loan Party as debtor and (ii) will be terminated on or prior to the Closing Date; and on or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower will have delivered to the Administrative
Agent, or caused to be filed, duly completed UCC and other termination statements, signed by the relevant secured party, in respect of each such UCC Financing Statement. 
 (b) Each of the Mortgages is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties a valid Lien on the Mortgaged Properties described therein and proceeds and products
thereof; and when the Mortgages are registered or filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19(b) (in the case of Mortgages to be executed and delivered on the Closing Date) or in the recording office designated by the Borrower (in the case of
any Mortgage to be executed and delivered pursuant to Section 6.10(b)), each Mortgage shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Mortgaged Properties described
therein and the proceeds and products thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each case constituting First Priority Liens. 
 4.20 Solvency. Each Loan Party is, and after giving effect to the Transactions will be, and will continue to be Solvent. 
 4.21 [Reserved]. 

 44 
  

 4.22 Regulation H. No Mortgage encumbers improved real property which is located in an area that
has been identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (except any Mortgaged Properties as to
which such flood insurance as required by Regulation H has been obtained and is in full force and effect as required by this Agreement). 
 4.23 Insurance. Each of Holdings, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is insured, in accordance with Section 5.3 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and
risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which it is engaged; and none of Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing
insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers at a cost that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.24 Patriot Act, etc. To the extent applicable, each Loan Party that is subject to the Patriot Act (or that would require any Lender to be
subject to the Patriot Act) is in compliance, in all material respects, with the (i) Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B,
Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, and (ii) Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA Patriot Act of 2001). No
part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official
capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended. 
 4.25 Acquisition Documentation. The Acquisition Documentation listed on Schedule 4.25 attached hereto constitute all of the material
agreements, instruments and undertakings to which Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries is bound or by which such Person or any of its property or assets is bound or affected relating to, or arising out of, the Acquisition
(including, without limitation, any agreements, instruments or undertakings assumed pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement). None of such material agreements, instruments or undertakings have been amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, and all
such material agreements, instruments and undertakings are in full force and effect as of the date hereof. As of the date hereof, no party to any Acquisition Documentation is in default thereunder and no party thereto, or any other Person, has the
right to terminate any Acquisition Documentation.

 (a) Amend, supplement or otherwise modify (whether pursuant to a waiver granted by or to such Person or otherwise) the terms and conditions of the
indemnities and licenses furnished to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the Acquisition Documentation such that after giving effect thereto such indemnities or licenses shall be materially less favorable to the interests of the Loan
Parties with respect thereto, except to the 

 71 
  

 
extent that such amendment, supplement or modification could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (b) otherwise amend,
supplement or otherwise modify or fail to enforce the terms and conditions of the Acquisition Documentation except to the extent that any such amendment, supplement or modification or failure to enforce could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. 
 7.17 Limitation on Activities of Holdings. In the case of Holdings, (a) conduct, transact or
otherwise engage in, or commit to conduct, transact or otherwise engage in, any business or operations, or own, lease, manage or otherwise operate any properties or assets (including cash and cash equivalents), other than the ownership of shares of

or suffer to exist any Indebtedness or other liabilities or financial obligations except as expressly permitted hereby. Nothing in this Section 7.17 shall be construed to restrict Holdings from receiving capital contributions from persons who

any Loan Party herein or in any other Loan Document or that is contained in any certificate, document or financial or other statement furnished by it at any time under or in connection with this Agreement or any such other Loan Document shall prove
to have been inaccurate in any material respect on or as of the date made or deemed made or furnished; or 
 (c) any Loan
Party shall default in the observance or performance of any agreement contained in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 6.4(a) (with respect to Holdings and the Borrower only), Section 6.7(a) or Section 7, or in Sections 5.4(a),
5.6, 5.8 and 5.9 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, or any corresponding covenant contained in any Foreign Security Agreement; or

permit the holder or beneficiary of such Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or beneficiary) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity or to become subject
to a mandatory offer to purchase by the obligor thereunder or (in the case of any such Indebtedness constituting a Guarantee Obligation) to become payable; provided, that a default, event or condition described in clause (i), (ii) or

(e) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to (1) the First Lien Loans, any Permitted First Lien Refinancing Indebtedness, or the loans under the Revolving Loan Agreement, in each case regardless of the principal amount thereof
or (2) any Indebtedness the outstanding principal amount of which exceeds in the aggregate $16,500,000; provided, further, that with respect to any default in the observance or performance of any agreement or condition contained
in Section 7 of the First Lien Credit Agreement, such event shall only constitute an Event of Default if the failure to observe or perform such agreement or condition shall also constitute an Event of Default hereunder; or 
 (f) (i) Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall commence any application, case, proceeding or other

or any failure by any Plan that is subject to Title IV of ERISA to satisfy the minimum funding standards (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA), whether or not waived, shall exist with respect to any Plan,
or any Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan shall arise on the assets of the Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity, (iii) a Reportable Event shall occur with respect to, or proceedings shall commence to have a trustee appointed, or a
trustee shall be appointed, to administer or to terminate, any Single Employer Plan, which Reportable Event or commencement of proceedings or appointment of a trustee is, in the reasonable opinion of the Required Lenders, likely to result in the
termination of such Plan for purposes of Title IV of ERISA, (iv) any Single Employer Plan shall terminate for purposes of Title IV of ERISA, (v) on and after the effectiveness of the Pension Act, there is a determination that any Plan that
is subject to Title IV of ERISA is, or is expected to be, in “at risk” status (within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA); (vi) the Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity shall, or in the reasonable opinion of the Required Lenders
shall be likely to, incur any liability in connection with a withdrawal from, or the Insolvency or Reorganization of, a Multiemployer Plan; (vii) the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any Commonly Controlled Entity shall be

the amount set forth on Schedule 8(g)(i) with respect to such fiscal year, (viii) the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any Commonly Controlled Entity shall be required to make during any fiscal year of the Borrower
contributions to any defined benefit pension plan subject to Title IV of ERISA (including any Multiemployer Plan) that, in the aggregate, exceed the amount set forth on Schedule 8(g)(ii) with respect to such fiscal year; or (ix) any other
similar event or condition shall occur or exist with respect to a Plan; and in each case in clauses (i) through (ix) above, such event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, if any, could, in the sole judgment of
the Required Lenders, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or 
 (i) one or more judgments or decrees
shall be entered against any Loan Party involving for the Loan Parties taken as a whole a liability (not paid or fully covered by insurance as to which the relevant insurance company has acknowledged coverage) of $16,500,000 or more in the aggregate
at any one time, and all such judgments or decrees shall not have been vacated, discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal within 30 days from the entry thereof; or 

 74 
  

 (j) any of the Security Documents executed as required by this Agreement shall cease, for
any reason (other than by reason of the express release thereof pursuant to Section 10.15 or failure of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to take any action within its sole control), to be in full force and effect, or any Loan Party
or any Affiliate of any Loan Party shall so assert, or any Lien created by any of the Security Documents shall cease to be enforceable and of the same effect and priority purported to be created thereby; or 
 (k) the guarantee contained in Section 2 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement executed as required by this Agreement shall

 SECTION 9. THE AGENTS; THE ARRANGER 
 9.1
Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Agents as the agents of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in such capacity, to take such
action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any
fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Agent. 

 75 
  

 9.2 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
 9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Arrangers, any Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except
to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any
manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document
referred to or provided for in, or received by the Arrangers or the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of
the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. 
 9.4 Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex
or teletype message, statement, order 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,
without limitation, counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. The Agents may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been
transferred in accordance with Section 10.6 and all actions required by such Section in connection with such transfer shall have been taken. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement) as it deems
appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders
specified by this Agreement), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 
 9.5 Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless
such Agent shall have received notice from a Lender, Holdings or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing 

 76 
  

 
such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall receive
such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so
specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but
shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. 
 9.6 Non-Reliance on the Arrangers, the Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Arrangers, any of the Agents
nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, partners, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any
review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Arrangers, any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents and the Arrangers that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Arrangers, any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property,
financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Arrangers, any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates.
Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Arranger and no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other
information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Arrangers or Agents or any of
its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, partners, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 
 9.7
Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Arranger and each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by Holdings, the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Holdings or the Borrower to do so), ratably
according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans
shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), for, and to save each Arranger and each Agent harmless from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against such Arranger or such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this 

 77 
  

 
Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, the Acquisition Documentation, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Arranger or such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from
such Arranger’s or such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 9.8 Arrangers and Agents in their Individual Capacities. Each Arranger and each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from
and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Arranger or such Agent were not an Arranger or an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, each Arranger and each Agent shall have the same rights and
powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Arranger or an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Arranger and the Agent in
their individual capacities. 
 9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon
10 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor
agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or Section 8(f) with respect to the Borrower shall exist and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such
appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the
parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 10 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring
Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a
successor agent as provided for above. The Syndication Agent may, at any time, by notice to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, resign as Syndication Agent hereunder, whereupon the duties, rights, obligations and responsibilities of the
Syndication Agent hereunder shall automatically be assumed by, and inure to the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, without any further act by the Arrangers, any Agent or any Lender. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, the
provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 9.10 Authorization to Release Liens and Guarantees. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any
release of Liens or guarantee obligations contemplated by Section 10.15. 

 78 
  

 9.11 The Arrangers; the Syndication Agent. The Arrangers and the Syndication Agent, in their
respective capacities as such, shall have no duties or responsibilities, and shall incur no liability, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 9.12 Withholding Tax. 
 (a) To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent
may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the forms or other documentation required by Section 2.20 are not delivered to the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative
Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender not providing such forms or other documentation, a maximum amount of the applicable withholding tax. 
 (b) If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or any other taxing jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the
account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of,
withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest,
together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses. 
 (c) If any Lender
sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers its rights under this Agreement, the purchaser, assignee, participant or transferee, as applicable, shall comply and be bound by the terms of Sections 2.20 and 9.12; provided that
with respect to any Participant, as set forth in Section 10.6(b), such Participant shall only be required to comply with the requirements of Sections 2.20 and 9.12 if such Participant seeks to obtain the benefits of Section 2.20.

 SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS 
 10.1
Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter), nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 10.1. The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or (with the written consent of the Required Lenders) the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from
time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents (including amendments and restatements hereof or thereof) for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as may be specified in the instrument of waiver, any of the requirements of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall: 

 79 
  

 (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any
Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest (other than the waiver of default interest) or fee payable hereunder or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof,
or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Commitment of any Lender, in each case without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 
 (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section or reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders,
consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release from their guarantee obligations the
Subsidiary Guarantors constituting all or substantially all of the value of the guarantees under the Security Documents, in each case without the consent of all Lenders; 
 (iii) [Reserved]; 
 (iv) [Reserved]; 
 (v) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 or any other provision affecting the
rights, duties and obligations of any Arranger or any Agent without the consent of the Arranger or Agent directly affected thereby; 
 (vi) [Reserved]; 
 (vii) amend, modify or waive the pro rata provisions of Section 2.18 without the consent of
each Lender directly affected thereby; 
 (viii) [Reserved]; 
 (ix) impose restrictions on assignments and participations that are more restrictive than, or additional to, those set forth in
Section 10.6 
 Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon
the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Arrangers, the Agents and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Arrangers and the Agents shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent
thereon. Any such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification shall be effected by a written instrument signed by the parties required to sign pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section; provided, that delivery of an executed
signature page of any such instrument by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to each relevant Loan
Document (x) to add one 

 80 
  

 
or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued
interest and fees in respect thereof (collectively, the “Additional Extensions of Credit”) to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the accrued interest and fees in
respect thereof and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall permit the Additional Extensions of Credit
to share ratably with or with preference to the Loans in the application of mandatory prepayments without the consent of the Required Lenders. 
 In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the
refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder, provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such
Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans,
(c) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization
for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the applicable Term Loans) and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders
providing such Replacement Term Loans than those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect
immediately prior to such refinancing.

 10.5 Payment of Expenses. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Arrangers and the Agents for all their
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (other than fees payable to syndicate members) and the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification
to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the
reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the charges of Intralinks, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender, the Arrangers and the Agents for all their costs and expenses incurred in connection
with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel to each

each Lender, each Arranger, each Agent, their respective affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, trustees, employees, affiliates, shareholders, attorneys and other advisors, agents and controlling persons (each, an
“Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the use of
proceeds of the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of Holdings, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Properties or the use by unauthorized persons of
information or other materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems that are intercepted by such persons and the fees and disbursements and other charges of legal counsel in connection with claims,
actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against the Borrower hereunder (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation under this
Section 10.5 to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized persons of Information or other materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems
that are intercepted by such persons or for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with the Facilities. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the 

 83 
  

 
extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its
Subsidiaries so to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to
Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than (i) with respect to amounts incurred prior to the Closing Date, on the Closing
Date to the extent invoiced and (ii) with respect to all other amounts, 30 days after written demand thereof, in each case accompanied by a customary invoice. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be submitted to the
address of the Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of the Loans
and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. 
 (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Holdings, the Borrower, the Lenders, the Arrangers, the Agents, all future holders
of the Loans and their respective successors and assigns, except that none of Holdings or the Borrower may assign or transfer any of their respective rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Arrangers, the
Agents and each Lender. 
 (b) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, in
accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any
other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Borrower and
the Agents shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In no event shall any Participant under any such participation
have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would require the consent of all
Lenders pursuant to Section 10.1. The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Loans are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
each Participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating
interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, provided that, in purchasing such participating interest, such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in
Section 10.7(a) as fully as if such Participant were a Lender hereunder. The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19, 2.20 and 2.21 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and
the Loans outstanding from 

 84 
  

 
time to time as if such Participant were a Lender; provided that, in the case of Section 2.20, such Participant shall have complied with the
requirements of said Section and Section 9.12, and provided, further, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive
in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred. 
 (c)
Any Lender (an “Assignor”) may, in accordance with applicable law and upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time and from time to time assign to any Lender or any affiliate, Related Fund or Control Investment
Affiliate thereof or, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (provided that no such consent need be obtained by the Administrative Agent or its affiliates), to an additional bank,
financial institution or other entity who regularly are engaged in extending or purchasing commercial loans (an “Assignee”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance,
substantially in the form of Exhibit E (an “Assignment and Acceptance”), executed by such Assignee and such Assignor and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided that no
such assignment to an Assignee (other than any Lender or any affiliate thereof) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of less than $1,000,000 (other than in the case of an assignment of all of a Lender’s interests under this Agreement),
unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (except during the continuance of an Event of Default, no consent of the Borrower shall be required). Any such assignment need not be ratable as among the Facilities. Upon such
execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and
Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with Commitments and/or Loans as set forth therein, and (y) the Assignor thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of an Assignor’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Assignor shall cease to be a party hereto, except as to Section 2.19, 2.20,
2.21, 9.12 and 10.5 in respect of the period prior to such effective date). For purposes of the minimum assignment amounts set forth in this paragraph, multiple assignments by two or more Related Funds shall be aggregated. 
 (d) The Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrower, maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2 a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries
in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, each Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loans and any Notes evidencing such Loans recorded
therein for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide).
Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment
and Acceptance; thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal 

 85 
  

 
amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee, and the old Notes shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked
“canceled”. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 (e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an Assignor and an Assignee (and, in any case where the consent of any
other Person is required by Section 10.6(c), by each such other Person) together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (treating multiple, simultaneous assignments by or to two or more Related
Funds as a single assignment) (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable in the case of an Assignee which is already a Lender or is an affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender or a Person under common management with a
Lender), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such
acceptance and recordation to the Borrower. On or prior to such effective date, the Borrower, at its own expense, upon request, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (in exchange for applicable Term Notes of the assigning Lender)
applicable Term Notes to the order of such Assignee in an amount equal to the applicable Term Loans assumed or acquired by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the Assignor has retained Term Loans upon request, new Term Notes to the
order of the Assignor in an amount equal to the applicable Term Loans retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the Closing Date and shall otherwise be in the form of the Note or Notes replaced thereby. 
 (f) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section concerning assignments of Loans and Notes
relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests in Loans and Notes, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve
Bank in accordance with applicable law. 
 (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting
Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower the option to provide the Borrower all
or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and
(ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall
utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this
Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year
and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United 

 86 
  

 
States or any state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.6(g), any SPC may (A) with notice to, but
without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender, or with the prior written consent of the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans, and
(B) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC; provided that
non-public information with respect to the Borrower may be disclosed only with the Borrower’s consent which will not be unreasonably withheld. This paragraph (g) may not be amended without the written consent of any SPC with Loans
outstanding at the time of such proposed amendment. 
 10.7 Adjustments; Set-off. 
 (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under the Facility, and
except to the extent certain Collateral secures only the Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect
thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise) or any proceeds from Collateral (whether pursuant to the exercise of the rights of any Secured
Party under the Security Documents or under law or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral or proceeds of Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender,
such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to such Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be
necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment, benefits of such collateral or proceeds from Collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment,
benefits or proceeds is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 
 (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Holdings or the
Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Holdings and the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case
whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Each Lender agrees to notify promptly the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 

 87 
  

 10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement
on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement or of a Lender Addendum by facsimile transmission
shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
any other jurisdiction. 
 10.10 Integration. This Agreement, the Fee Letter and the other Loan Documents represent the entire
agreement of Holdings, the Borrower the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Arrangers, any Agent or any Lender

Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; 

 88 
  

 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any
other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 
 (e) waives, to the maximum
extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon request of the Borrower in connection with any
Disposition of Property by it or its Subsidiaries permitted by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Specified Hedge Agreement)
take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in any Collateral being Disposed of in such Disposition, and to release any guarantee obligations under any Loan Document of any Person being Disposed of in such Disposition, to
the extent necessary to permit consummation of such Disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents; provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release
(or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent), a written request for release identifying the relevant Collateral being Disposed of in such Disposition and the terms of such Disposition in reasonable detail, including the date
thereof, the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that the proceeds of such

such Accounting Change with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating Holdings’ and the Borrower’s financial condition shall be the same after such Accounting Change as if such Accounting Change had not been made. Until such time
