for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by a Working Capital Loan in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.5,
the Swing Line Lender irrevocably agrees to grant to each Working Capital Facility Lender, and, to induce the Swing Line Lender
to make Swing Line Loans hereunder, each Working Capital Facility Lender irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase from the Swing
Line Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such Working Capital Facility Lender’s own account and risk
on the date such Working Capital Facility Loan was to have been made, an undivided participation interest in the then-outstanding
Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to its Working Capital Facility Commitment Percentage of such Swing Line Loans that were to
have been repaid with such Working Capital Facility Loans (the “Swing Line Participation Amount”). Each Working
Capital Facility Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender in immediately available
funds such Working Capital Facility Lenders’ Swing Line Participation Amount, and upon receipt thereof, the Administrative
Agent shall promptly distribute such funds to the Swing Line Lender in like funds received.

 

    	-44-

    	 

    

 

 

(c)          If
any Working Capital Facility Lender failed to timely pay to the Administrative Agent all or a portion of its Swing Line Participation
Amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.5(b), such overdue amounts shall bear interest payable by such Working
Capital Facility Lender at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder until such overdue amounts are paid in full.

 

(d)          Each
Working Capital Facility Lender’s obligation to make Working Capital Facility Loans referred to in Section 2.5(a)
and to purchase participation interests pursuant to Section 2.5(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not
be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other
right which such Working Capital Facility Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Borrower, or any other Person for
any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default, (iii) any failure to satisfy any condition precedent
to the applicable extension of credit set forth in Section 6, (iv) any adverse change in the condition (financial or
otherwise) of any Loan Party, (v) any breach of this Agreement or any Loan Document by any Loan Party or any other Lender or (vi)
any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

 

(e)          Whenever,
at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any Working Capital Facility Lender its Swing Line Participation Amount,
the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account thereof (whether directly from a Borrower, the Borrowers’ Agent or
otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Swing Line Lender) or any payment of interest on account thereof,
the Swing Line Lender shall distribute to such Working Capital Facility Lender its Working Capital Facility Commitment Percentage
of such payments and promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof; provided, however, that in the event that
any such payment received by the Swing Line Lender shall be required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender, such Working Capital
Facility Lender shall return to the Swing Line Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Line Lender to it
in like funds received and promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof.

 

2.6           Commitment
Fees. Subject to Section 4.18(b)(i), the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each Lender under each Facility a commitment fee for the period from and including the first day of the Commitment Period for such
Facility to but not including the applicable Commitment Termination Date for such Facility, computed at the Applicable Commitment
Fee Rate for such Facility on the average daily amount of the Available Commitment of such Lender under such Facility during the
period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on the fifteenth day after the last Business Day of each March,
June, September and December (or, if such day is not on a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) and on the applicable
Commitment Termination Date for such Facility or such earlier date as all of the Commitments under such Facility shall terminate
as provided herein, commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the date hereof.

 

SECTION
3.          LETTERS OF CREDIt

 

3.1           Letters
of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender severally agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters
of Credit”) for the account of any Borrower for use by any Borrower or any other Loan Party from time to time during
the Working Capital Facility Commitment Period; provided that, after giving effect to any Letter of Credit requested by
the Borrowers’ Agent on behalf of a Borrower:

 

    	-45-

    	 

    

 

(i)          each
of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 shall be satisfied or waived; and 

 

(ii)         Section 3.3
shall not be contravened by any Loan Party at any time.

 

3.2           Procedure
for the Issuance and Amendments of Letters of Credit.

 

(a)          Procedure
for the Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrowers’ Agent may from time to time request the issuance of a Letter of
Credit from an Issuing Lender by delivering to the Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit and the Administrative Agent a Letter
of Credit Request, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may reasonably
request (consistent with requests made by such Issuing Lender from other similarly situated account parties). Such Letter of Credit
Request shall specify:

 

(i)          the
maximum amount of such Letter of Credit and the account party therefor;

 

(ii)         if
such Letter of Credit is a Performance Letter of Credit, or a Trade Letter of Credit;

 

(iii)        the
requested date on which such Letter of Credit is to be issued;

 

(iv)        the
purpose and nature of the proposed Letter of Credit;

 

(v)         the
name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit;

 

(vi)        the
expiration or termination date of the Letter of Credit;

 

(vii)       the
documents to be presented by such beneficiary in the case of a drawing or demand for payment thereunder; and

 

(viii)      the
delivery instructions for such Letter of Credit, and

 

(ix)         the
applicable Borrower on whose behalf such requested Letter of Credit is to be issued.

 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, no Issuing Lender shall be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter
of Credit, the aggregate outstanding L/C Obligations attributed to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender exceeds such
Issuing Lender’s Issuance Cap.

 

If requested by the Issuing Lender, the
Borrowers’ Agent also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection
with any request for a Letter of Credit. To the extent that any material provision of any such application is inconsistent with
the provisions of this Section 3 or adds events of default, grants of security, or remedies not already contained in the
Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 3 and this Agreement shall apply and such provision shall not be given effect.

 

    	-46-

    	 

    

 

(b)          Procedure
for Amendments of Letters of Credit. The Borrowers’ Agent may from time to time request an amendment (including any extension)
to any outstanding Letter of Credit by delivering to the Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit and the Administrative Agent a
Letter of Credit Request which shall specify:

 

(i)          the
Letter of Credit to be amended;

 

(ii)         the
requested date of the proposed amendment;

 

(iii)        the
nature of the proposed amendment; and

 

(iv)        the
delivery instructions for such amendment.

 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, no Issuing Lender shall be obligated to extend any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to the extension of such
Letter of Credit, the aggregate outstanding L/C Obligations attributed to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender exceeds
such Issuing Lender’s Issuance Cap.

 

(c)          Timing
of Letter of Credit Requests. A Letter of Credit Request must be received by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative
Agent by no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the Business Day before the date such Letter of Credit is to be
issued or amended, or such other time as previously agreed between the Issuing Lender thereof and the Borrowers’ Agent. Upon
the issuance of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to an outstanding Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent and the Working
Capital Facility Lenders shall be entitled to assume that the Letter of Credit Request and certificates, documents and other papers
and information reasonably requested by the Issuing Lender in connection therewith were completed and delivered to the satisfaction
of such Issuing Lender.

 

(d)          Validation
Procedure. Upon receipt of a Letter of Credit Request by an Issuing Lender, such Issuing Lender will confirm with the Administrative
Agent (in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Request and, if not, such Issuing
Lender will provide the Administrative Agent, with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by such Issuing Lender of confirmation from the
Administrative Agent that the requested Letter of Credit or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.2,
such Issuing Lender shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of a Borrower or enter into the applicable
amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s usual and customary business practices.

 

3.3           General
Terms of Letters of Credit. (a)  Each Letter of Credit is to be denominated only in United States Dollars.

 

(b)          Each
Letter of Credit shall, subject to Section 3.3(d), expire no later than one year after the date of issuance (or extension);
provided that (i) at any time, the aggregate face of amount of all Letters of Credit issued with an expiration date after
the Working Capital Facility Commitment Termination Date applicable thereto shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sub-Limit; (ii)
all Letters of Credit with an expiration date after the Working Capital Facility Commitment Termination Date shall be returned
and cancelled (with the beneficiary’s consent) or Cash Collateralized at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Working
Capital Facility Commitment Termination Date applicable thereto and (iii) no such Letter of Credit may be issued with an expiration
date after the date that is nine months after the Working Capital Facility Commitment Termination Date.

 

    	-47-

    	 

    

 

(c)          Upon
request by the Borrowers’ Agent in the applicable Letter of Credit Request, the relevant Issuing Lender may, in its sole
and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Auto-Renewal
Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise agreed upon by the applicable Issuing Lender at its sole discretion, the Borrowers’
Agent shall make a specific request to such Issuing Lender for any renewal of an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit, such prior notice
to be delivered to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration
or termination date of such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit (the date of the delivery of such notice, the “Renewal Notice
Date”); provided that, unless otherwise agreed upon by the applicable Issuing Lender at its sole discretion, the
Borrowers’ Agent shall provide to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent written notice of its intent
to not renew such an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration or termination date of
such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit (the date of the delivery of such notice, the “Non-Renewal Notice Date”).
Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued (or is permitted to be outstanding hereunder in the case of an outstanding
Letter of Credit that is an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit), the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but the Lenders may
not require) such Issuing Lender to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to a date not later than nine (9) months
after the Working Capital Facility Commitment Termination Date; provided, however, that no Issuing Lender shall permit
any renewal of an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit if (A) such Issuing Lender has determined that it would have no obligation at such
time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 3.3
or 6.2 or otherwise), (B) after giving effect to any such renewal, the earlier of the (x) expiration date of such Auto-Renewal
Letter of Credit and (y) the next occurring Non-Renewal Notice Date of such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit would occur after the
Working Capital Facility Commitment Termination Date, or (C) it has received notice in writing on or before the date that is two
(2) Business Days before the Renewal Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrowers’ Agent that one
or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.3 or 6.2 is not then satisfied. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to permit the renewal of any Auto-Renewal
Letter of Credit at any time if any of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.2 is not then satisfied.

 

(d)          If
any Issuing Lender shall issue, extend or amend any Letter of Credit without obtaining prior confirmation of the Administrative
Agent (as provided in Section 3.3(d)), or if any Issuing Lender shall permit the extension or renewal of an Auto-Renewal
Letter of Credit without giving timely prior notice to the Administrative Agent, or when such extension or renewal is not permitted
hereunder (as provided in sub-section (c) above), such Letter of Credit (A) shall for all purposes be deemed to have been
issued by such Issuing Lender solely for its own account and risk and (B) shall not be considered a Letter of Credit outstanding
under this Agreement, and no Lender shall be deemed to have any participation therein, effective as of the date of such issuance,
amendment, extension or renewal, as the case may be, unless the Required Lenders expressly consent thereto; provided, however,
that to be considered a Letter of Credit outstanding under this Agreement, the consent of all Lenders shall be required to the
extent that any such issuance, amendment, extension or renewal is not then permitted hereunder by reason of the provisions of this
Section 3.3.

 

(e)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, an Issuing Lender is under no obligation to issue or provide any Letter of Credit (including any
renewal of an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit) or renew, extend or amend any Letter of Credit unless consented to by such Issuing
Lender and the Collateral Agent, if:

 

    	-48-

    	 

    

 

(i)          Any
order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing
Lender from issuing, renewing, extending or amending such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to such Issuing
Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over
such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance, renewal, extension or amending
of a Letter of Credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to
such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (in the case of an amendment of a Letter of Credit, for which
such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing
Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Lender in good
faith deems material to it; or

 

(ii)         such
Letter of Credit or the requested amendment is not in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Lender thereof or
the issuance of such Letter of Credit shall violate any applicable policies of such Issuing Lender.

 

(f)          Within
one (1) Business Day after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with
respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender thereof will also deliver to the Borrowers’ Agent and the
Administrative Agent, a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

 

(g)          Each
Letter of Credit shall be subject to the International Standby Practices (“ISP98”) International Chamber of
Commerce Publication No. 590 or Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits No. 600 (“UCP 600”), as
applicable, and to the extent not inconsistent with ISP 98 or UCP 600, the Laws of the State of New York.

 

3.4           Fees,
Commissions and Other Charges.

 

(a)          Letter
of Credit Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Issuing Lender and the
L/C Participants a letter of credit commission, with respect to each outstanding Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to the Applicable
L/C Fee Rate times the average daily maximum amount of such Letter of Credit; provided that such letter of credit commission
shall not be in an amount less than $1,500 for the period during which such Letter of Credit is outstanding, and, in each case,
such commission shall be payable to the L/C Participants and the Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit to be shared ratably among
them in accordance with the average daily amount of their respective Working Capital Facility Commitment Percentages. Such commission
shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date.

 

(b)          Fronting
Fee. In addition to the fees and commissions in Sections 3.4(a) and (c), the Borrowers shall pay each relevant
Issuing Lender an amount equal to 0.20% per annum times the face amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender.
Such fee shall be nonrefundable and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date.

 

(c)          Other
Charges. In addition to the foregoing fees and commissions, the Borrowers shall pay or reimburse each Issuing Lender of any
Letter of Credit for such normal and customary costs, expenses and fees as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Lender in issuing,
effecting payment under, amending, processing, negotiating or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. The applicable Borrower
shall pay each relevant Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit (i) a fee of no less than $1,500 for any issuance of a Letter of
Credit by such Issuing Lender and (ii) a fee of $500 for any amendment of a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender (which
fees shall be in addition to any fee payable under the preceding sentence for such issuance or amendment).

 

    	-49-

    	 

    

 

(d)          Distribution
of Fees. The Administrative Agent shall, within two (2) Business Days following its receipt thereof, distribute to the relevant
Issuing Lenders and the L/C Participants all fees and commissions received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts
pursuant to this Section 3.4.

 

3.5           L/C
Participations. (a)  Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and,
to induce the Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase
and hereby accepts and purchases from each such Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C Participant’s
own account and risk, an undivided interest in such Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued
or provided by such Issuing Lender hereunder and the amounts paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder equal to such L/C Participant’s
Working Capital Facility Commitment Percentage.

 

(b)          Each
L/C Participant’s obligation to accept and purchase for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk, an undivided participation
interest in an Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued or provided by such Issuing Lender
hereunder and the amounts paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder equal to such L/C Participant’s Working Capital Facility
Commitment Percentage thereof shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without
limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such L/C Participant may have against any Issuing
Lender, any Borrower, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event
of Default, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party, (iv) any breach of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document by any Loan Party or any other Lender or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

 

(c)          The
obligations of the L/C Participants to purchase participations in the obligations of the Issuing Lenders under outstanding Letters
of Credit pursuant to Section 3.5 shall survive the Working Capital Facility Commitment Termination Date with respect
to Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized pursuant to Section 3.3(b) until the earliest of (i) the expiration
date for such Letters of Credit and all drawings thereunder having been repaid in full, (ii) the date the entire amount available
under such Letters of Credit are drawn and such drawings are repaid and no further drawings are permitted under such Letters of
Credit, and (iii) the date that is nine (9) months after the Working Capital Facility Commitment Termination Date applicable to
such Letters of Credit; provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.5(c) , with respect
to any Letter of Credit having an expiration date following the Working Capital Facility Commitment Termination Date applicable
thereto (such a Letter of Credit, a “Post-Termination LOC”), in no event shall the obligations of the L/C Participants
to purchase participations in the obligations of an Issuing Lender under a Post-Termination LOC pursuant to Section 3.5(a)
expire or terminate prior to the Business Day following the expiration, cancellation or termination of the last remaining outstanding
Post-Termination LOC and the payment in full of all drawings, if any, thereunder.

 

(d)          If
for any reason any Unreimbursed Amount cannot be refinanced by an L/C Reimbursement Loan in accordance with Section 3.6(c),
each L/C Participant shall, on or before the deadline for such Working Capital Facility Loan to have been made, pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender in immediately available funds such L/C Participant’s Working Capital
Facility Commitment Percentage of such Unreimbursed Amount, and upon receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute
such funds to the applicable Issuing Lender in like funds received.

 

(e)          If
any L/C Participant fails to timely pay to the Administrative Agent all or a portion of its Working Capital Facility Commitment
Percentage of any Unreimbursed Amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 3.5(d), such overdue amounts shall bear
interest payable by such L/C Participant at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder until such overdue amounts
are paid in full.

 

    	-50-

    	 

    

 

(f)          Whenever,
at any time after any Issuing Lender has received from any L/C Participant its Working Capital Facility Commitment Percentage of
any Unreimbursed Amount, such Issuing Lender receives any payment on account thereof (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise,
including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing
Lender shall distribute to such L/C Participant its Working Capital Facility Commitment Percentage of such payments and promptly
notify the Administrative Agent thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such
Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender
the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it in like funds received and promptly notify the Administrative
Agent thereof.

 

3.6           Reimbursement
Obligations of the Borrowers. (a)  Upon receipt by the relevant Issuing Lender from the beneficiary of any Letter
of Credit of any notice of a drawing or demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify
the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent thereof. If the Borrowers’ Agent receives notice (confirmed by telephone)
from such Issuing Lender of a drawing or demand for payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time),
on any Business Day, the Borrowers shall reimburse such Issuing Lender on such Business Day for the Unreimbursed Amount of such
Letter of Credit. If the Borrowers’ Agent receives notice (confirmed by telephone) from such Issuing Lender of a drawing
or demand for payment under a Letter of Credit at or after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), on any Business Day, the Borrowers
shall so reimburse such Issuing Lender on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day upon which such notice was received
by the Borrowers’ Agent. Such reimbursement shall be made directly to such Issuing Lender in an amount in United Stated Dollars
equal to (i) the amount so paid and (ii) any Non-Excluded Taxes and any reasonable fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred
by such Issuing Lender at its Applicable Lending Office in immediately available funds (such amount that has not been reimbursed
by the Borrowers being, the “Unreimbursed Amount”).

 

(b)          If
the Borrowers fail to fully reimburse any Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(a) at the time and on the due date
specified in such Section (the “Reimbursement Date”), such Issuing Lender shall so notify the Administrative
Agent (with a copy to the Borrowers’ Agent), which notice shall be provided on a Business Day, and specify in such notice
the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount. On the next Business Day following receipt of such notice from such Issuing Lender, the
Administrative Agent shall notify each L/C Participant of the Reimbursement Date, the Unreimbursed Amount, and the amount of such
L/C Participant’s Working Capital Facility Commitment Percentage thereof.

 

(c)          If
there shall be any Unreimbursed Amounts owing to any Issuing Lender on or after such Unreimbursed Amounts were due pursuant to
Section 3.6(a), the relevant Issuing Lender may request on behalf of the Borrowers (which hereby irrevocably authorize
such Issuing Lender to act on their behalf solely in this regard), that each Working Capital Facility Lender make a Working Capital
Facility Loan (which initially shall be a Base Rate Loan) in an amount equal to such Working Capital Facility Lender’s Working
Capital Facility Commitment Percentage of the outstanding amount of such Unreimbursed Amount (an “L/C Reimbursement Loan”).
In accordance with Section 2.4(c), unless any of the conditions contained in Section 6.2 shall not have been
satisfied or waived (in which event the procedures set forth in Section 3.5 shall apply), each Working Capital Facility
Lender shall make the proceeds of its Working Capital Facility Loan available to the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m.
(New York City time) in funds immediately available on the second Business Day following the date such request is made. The proceeds
of such Working Capital Facility Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the applicable Issuing Lender.

 

    	-51-

    	 

    

 

(d)          With
respect to Unreimbursed Amounts that are not paid on the date due, interest shall be payable on any and all Unreimbursed Amounts
from the date such amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, demand or otherwise) until payment in full
(either in cash or upon the making of a Working Capital Facility Loan) at the applicable rate which would be payable on any outstanding
Working Capital Facility Loans which were then overdue pursuant to Section 4.2(c).

 

3.7           Obligations
Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional
and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective
of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii)
any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any
statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event
or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section,
constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder.
Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Lenders, nor any of their Related Persons, shall have any liability
or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure
to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error,
omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating
to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical
terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall
not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as
opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers
to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by the applicable Issuing Lender’s failure
to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.
The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable
Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised
care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree
that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter
of Credit, the Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility
for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such
documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

 

3.8           Role
of the Issuing Lenders. (a)  The responsibility of any Issuing Lender to any Borrower in connection with any draft
presented for payment under any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of such Borrower shall, in addition to any payment obligation
expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered
by or on behalf of the beneficiary under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such
Letter of Credit. In addition, each Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing or demand for payment under any
Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit shall not have any responsibility to inquire as to the validity or
accuracy of any document presented in connection with such drawing or demand for payment or the authority of the Person executing
or delivering the same.

 

    	-52-

    	 

    

 

(b)          No
Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Lender shall be liable
to any Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith in respect of any Letter of Credit at the request or
with the approval or deemed approved of the Required Lenders; (ii) any action taken or omitted in respect of any Letter of Credit
in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability
of any Letter of Credit or any document delivered in connection with the issuance or payment of such Letter of Credit.

 

(c)          Each
Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter
of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude such Borrower from
pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against such beneficiary or transferee. No Agent-Related Person, nor any of the
respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuing Lenders shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters
described in Section 3.7 ; provided, however, that anything in such Section or elsewhere herein
to the contrary notwithstanding, a Borrower may have a claim against any Issuing Lender and such Issuing Lender may be liable to
a Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by
such Borrower which such Borrower proved were caused by such Issuing Lender’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of
Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of documents strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter
of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing: (i) any Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear
on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the
contrary; and (ii) no Issuing Lender shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning
or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in
part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

 

3.9           Letter
of Credit Request. To the extent that any material provision of any Letter of Credit Request related to any Letter of Credit
is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply.

 

3.10         Existing
Letters of Credit. On the Closing Date, without further action by any party hereto, subject to the terms of this Section 3.10,
(a) each Existing Letter of Credit shall become a Letter of Credit hereunder and subject to the terms hereof and (b) each Issuing
Lender that has issued an Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have granted each L/C Participant, and each L/C Participant
shall be deemed to have acquired from such Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions of Section 3.5 hereof, for such
L/C Participant’s own account and risk, an undivided participation interest in such Issuing Lender’s obligations and
rights under each such Existing Letter of Credit equal to such L/C Participant’s Commitment Percentage of (x) the outstanding
amount available to be drawn under such Existing Letter of Credit and (y) the aggregate amount of any outstanding reimbursement
obligations in respect thereof.

 

SECTION
4.          GENERAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

 

4.1           Increase,
Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a)  The Borrowers’ Agent shall have the right, from time to time,
upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Working Capital Facility
Commitments and Acquisition Facility Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the Commitments on a ratable basis; provided,
that no such termination or reduction of the relevant Commitments shall be permitted to the extent that, after giving effect thereto
and to any prepayments of the Loans and Cash Collateralization of the Letters of Credit made on or before the effective date thereof,
(i) the Total Working Capital Facility Extensions of Credit would exceed the Working Capital Total Commitment or (ii) the
Total Acquisition Facility Extensions of Credit would exceed the Acquisition Facility Commitment then in effect. Any such reduction
shall be in an amount equal to $500,000 or a whole multiple thereof and shall reduce permanently and ratably the applicable relevant
Commitment then in effect.

 

    	-53-

    	 

    

 

(b)          At
any time during the Increase Period, (x) the aggregate Working Capital Facility Commitments may be increased to an amount
not to exceed the Working Capital Facility Maximum Amount (a “Working Capital Facility Increase”) and (y) the
aggregate Acquisition Facility Commitments may be increased to an amount not to exceed the Working Capital Facility Maximum Amount
(an “Acquisition Facility Increase”, a Working Capital Facility Increase and an Acquisition Facility Increase,
each being a “Facility Increase”) pursuant to the following procedure; provided that the aggregate Facility
Increases made on and after the Closing Date shall not exceed the Maximum Facility Increase Amount:

 

(i)          Not
more than thirty (30) days and not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the proposed effective date of any Facility Increase with
respect to any Facility, the Borrowers’ Agent may make a written request for such Facility Increase to the Administrative
Agent (a “Facility Increase Request”), who shall forward a copy of any such request to (x) each of the
Lenders under such Facility identified in such Facility Increase Request and (y) such additional Persons (subject to the approval
of the Collateral Agent, the Swing Line Lender and each Issuing Lenders, such approvals not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed
or conditioned) as requested by the Borrowers’ Agent (such additional Persons, the “New Lenders”). Each
request by the Borrowers’ Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall specify a proposed effective date of
such increase (the “Requested Increase Effective Date”), the aggregate amount of such requested increase (the
“Requested Increase Amount”), and shall constitute an invitation to each of the Lenders and the New Lenders
identified in the applicable Facility Increase Request to accept or increase Commitments (as applicable) under such Facility.

 

(ii)         Each
Lender and each New Lender identified in the applicable Facility Increase Request, acting in its sole discretion and with no obligations
to increase or accept Commitment under such Facility pursuant to this Section 4.1(b), shall by written notice to the
Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent advise the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent whether or not
such Lender or New Lender (as applicable) agrees to all or any portion of such Commitment or increase in its Commitments (as applicable)
under such Facility within ten (10) days after the Borrowers’ Agent’s request. Any such Lender or New Lender may accept
all of the Commitments or increase in its Commitment offered to it pursuant to the applicable Facility Increase Request, or decline
to accept any of such Commitment or Commitment increase (as applicable) under such Facility. If any such Lender or New Lender (as
applicable) shall not have responded affirmatively within such ten (10) day period, such Lender or New Lender (as applicable) shall
be deemed to have rejected the Borrowers’ Agent’s request for an increase in such Commitment in full. Promptly following
the conclusion of such ten (10) day period, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers’ Agent of the results of
the request for the applicable Facility Increase.

 

    	-54-

    	 

    

 

(iii)        If
the aggregate amount of the increases in the Commitments under any Facility which the Lenders under such Facility have accepted
in accordance with Section 4.1(b)(ii) shall be less than the Requested Increase Amount, the Collateral Agent may offer
to such additional Persons (including the Lenders under such Facility and additional New Lenders), as may be agreed by the Borrowers’
Agent and the Collateral Agent, the opportunity to make available such amount of new Commitments under such Facility as may be
required so that the aggregate increases in the Commitments under such Facility by the existing Lenders thereunder together with
such new Commitments by the New Lenders shall equal the Requested Increase Amount (the aggregate Facility Increase provided by
such existing Lenders and the New Lenders, the “Increase Amount”). Such Increase Amount shall be in an amount
equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof. The effectiveness of all such increases in the Commitments under such Facility
are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (A) each Lender that so elects to increase its Commitment under
such Facility (each an “Increasing Lender”), each New Lender, the Collateral Agent, the Borrowers’ Agent,
and the Borrowers shall have executed and delivered an agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L
(an “Increase and New Lender Agreement”); (B) (i) with respect to the Working Capital Facility, aggregate
Working Capital Facility Commitment after giving effect to such increases shall not exceed the Working Capital Facility Maximum
Amount, and (ii) with respect to the Acquisition Facility, the aggregate Acquisition Facility Commitments after giving effect
to such increase shall not exceed the Acquisition Facility Maximum Amount; (C) any fees and other amounts (including, without
limitation, pursuant to Section 11.6) payable by the Borrowers in connection with such increase and accession shall
have been paid; (D) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such increase in the
Commitments; (E) delivery of an Availability Certification dated as of the date of such increase; and (F) the Collateral
Agent shall have received in respect of the Mortgaged Properties (1) such amendments to the Mortgage and Security Agreements as
are in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, in each case, executed and delivered by a Responsible
Person of the relevant Loan Party to the extent necessary to reflect the increase in the Working Capital Facility or the Acquisition
Facility, as applicable and (2) to the extent required by applicable Law, a standard flood hazard determination for each Mortgaged
Property, and with respect to any Mortgaged Property that is located in a special flood hazard area, evidence of flood insurance
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

 

(iv)        On
any Requested Increase Effective Date with respect to any Facility, (A) each Increasing Lender or New Lender thereof shall
make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine
for the benefit of the other Lenders under such Facility as being required in order to cause (after giving effect to such increase
and the use of such amounts to make payments to the other Lenders under such Facility) each Lender’s portion of the outstanding
Loans of all Lenders under such Facility to equal its Commitment Percentage of such Loans, (B) the Borrowers shall be deemed
to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Loans of all the Lenders under such Facility to equal its Commitment Percentage of
such outstanding Loans as of the date of the applicable Facility Increase (with such reborrowing to consist of the Types of Loans,
with related Interest Periods, if applicable, specified in a notice delivered by the Borrowers’ Agent in accordance with
the requirements of Section 4.3) and (C) the participations in Letters of Credit shall be adjusted to reflect changes
in the Working Capital Facility Commitment Percentages. The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (B) of the immediately
preceding sentence in respect of each Eurodollar Loan shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrowers pursuant to the provisions
of Section 4.14 if the deemed payment occurs other than on the last day of the related Interest Periods.

 

(v)         Upon
the Requested Increase Effective Date with respect to any Facility, Schedule 1.0 of the Increase and New Lender Agreement,
which shall reflect the Commitments and the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders under such Facility at such time, shall be deemed
to supersede Schedule 1.0 hereto without any further action or consent of any party. The Administrative Agent shall
cause a copy of such revised Schedule 1.0 to be available to the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders.

 

4.2           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 for such Eurodollar Loan determined for such day plus the Applicable
Margin.

 

(b)          Each
Base Rate Loan (including Swing Line Loans) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable
Margin.

 

    	-55-

    	 

    

 

(c)          (i)
If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), all outstanding Obligations (whether or not overdue) (to the extent legally permitted)
shall bear interest 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 2.00%, (y) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the
rate applicable to Base Rate Loans plus 2.00%, and (z) in the case of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement
Obligation or any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder, such amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to
the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans plus 2.00%, in each case, from the date of such nonpayment until such amount
is paid in full (after as well as before judgment).

 

(d)          Interest
shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date or on the applicable date with respect to interest payable pursuant to
Section 4.2(c) above.

 

4.3           Conversion
and Continuation Options. (a)  The Borrowers’ Agent may elect from time to time to Convert Eurodollar Loans
to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least two (2) Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election
in the form attached hereto as Annex II (the “Continuation/Conversion Notice”), such Continuation/Conversion
Notice specifying the amount and the date such Conversion is to be made; provided that any such Conversion of Eurodollar
Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrowers’ Agent may elect from time
to time to Convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice of such election (in
the form of a Continuation/Conversion Notice) prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at its New York office, three (3) Business
Days before the date of such election. Any such notice of Conversion to Eurodollar Loans shall specify the amount to be Converted,
the date of such Conversion and the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such
notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Loans or Base
Rate Loans may be Converted as provided herein; provided that (i) no Base Rate Loan may be Converted into a Eurodollar
Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have reasonably
determined that such a Conversion is not appropriate and (ii) no Base Rate Loan may be Converted into a Eurodollar Loan after the
date that is one (1) month prior to the Commitment Termination Date.

 

(b)          Any
Eurodollar Loans may be Continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrowers’
Agent giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (in the form of a Continuation/Conversion Notice) prior to 1:00 p.m.
(New York City time), at its New York office, in each case, three (3) Business Days before the date such Eurodollar Loans are to
be Continued, 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. If the Borrowers’ Agent fails to give timely notice
requesting a Continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be Converted to Base Rate Loans. Any automatic Conversion to Base Rate
Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Loans.

 

(c)          During
the existence of an Event of Default, no Loan may be requested as, Converted to or Continued as Eurodollar Loans if the Required
Lenders have reasonably determined that such a request, Conversion or Continuation is not appropriate.

 

4.4           Minimum
Amounts of Tranches; Maximum Number of Tranches. (a)  All borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans
hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so
that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Tranche shall be
equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.

 

    	-56-

    	 

    

 

(b)          No
more than fifteen (15) Tranches of Eurodollar Loans shall be outstanding at any one time; provided that for each Facility Increase
in an aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000, two (2) additional Tranches of Eurodollar Loans may be outstanding (up to a maximum
of twenty (20) Tranches of Eurodollar Loans) at any one time. 

 

4.5           Repayment
of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a)  Each Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the appropriate Lender or to the relevant Issuing Lender, as applicable, the then unpaid principal amount of each Acquisition
Facility Loan and each Working Capital Facility Loan on the Maturity Date therefor. Each Borrower hereby further agrees to pay
interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations of such Borrower from time to time outstanding
from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 4.2.

 

(b)          Each
Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice a record or records setting forth all of the indebtedness of each Borrower
to such Lender resulting from each Loan or other Extension of Credit of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

 

(c)          The
Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall maintain the Register required by Section 11.7(d), and shall
include a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan and a copy of the Note, if any,
evidencing such Loan, the Type thereof and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest
or fee due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the amount of such Lender’s
share of any Unreimbursed Amount and (iv) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers
and each Lender’s share thereof.

 

(d)          The
entries made in the Register and the records of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 4.5(b) shall, to the extent
permitted by applicable Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of each Borrower therein recorded
(absent manifest error); 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 any Borrower to repay
(with applicable interest) the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder made to the Borrowers by such Lender in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(e)          Any
Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrowers will execute and deliver to such
Lender a promissory note evidencing the Working Capital Facility Loans, the Swing Line Loans or the Acquisition Facility Loans,
as applicable, of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1, A-2, or A-3, as applicable, with
appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (individually, a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”).

 

    	-57-

    	 

    

 

4.6           Optional
Prepayments. Any Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans made to it, in whole or in part, without premium
or penalty, upon notice from the Borrowers’ Agent in the form attached hereto as Annex III (the “Notice of Prepayment”)
delivered to the Administrative Agent (x) no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least three (3) Business Days prior
to the proposed prepayment date in the case of Eurodollar Loans, (y) no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed
prepayment date in the case of Base Rate Loans, and (z) not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed prepayment
date in the case of Swing Line Loans, in each case, which notice shall specify (x) the date and amount of prepayment, (y) which
Loans shall be prepaid and (z) whether the prepayment is of Base Rate Loans, Eurodollar Loans or a combination thereof, and, if
of a combination thereof, the amount allocable to each; provided that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than
the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or the Borrowers’ Agent revokes any notice of prepayment previously
delivered pursuant to this Section 4.6 after the date/time specified above, such Borrower shall also pay any amounts
owing pursuant to Section 4.14. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
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 any amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.14. Partial prepayments pursuant to this Section 4.6
shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple thereof. If any Borrower shall make any prepayment of
a Swing Line Loan after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day following the making of such Swing Line Loan
and the Swing Line Lender shall have requested from the Lenders Refunded Swing Line Loans in accordance with Section 2.5(a)
on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Administrative Agent shall apply such prepayment in the following order: first,
to any other Swing Line Loans of the Borrowers outstanding at such time, and second, to any outstanding Working Capital
Facility Loans that are Base Rate Loans of such Borrower. If the amount of such prepayment is greater than the outstanding amount
of such Swing Line Loans and such Working Capital Facility Loans that are Base Rate Loans at the time such prepayment is made,
the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit the excess to the applicable Borrower.

 

4.7           Mandatory
Prepayments. (a)  If on any date, the Total Working Capital Facility Extensions of Credit exceed the Borrowing Base,
then (i) the Borrowers’ Agent shall specify, at its sole discretion, one or more of the Working Capital Facility Loans, or
the Swing Line Loans of a Borrower or the Borrowers to be prepaid and such Borrower or the Borrowers shall prepay such Loan or
Loans, and/or (ii) if no Working Capital Facility Loans or Swing Line Loans are then outstanding, the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize,
replace or decrease (if the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit agrees to such decrease) the amount of outstanding Letters of
Credit by an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess, no later than three (3) Business Days immediately following such date.

 

(b)          If
on any date (i) the Total Acquisition Facility Extensions of Credit shall exceed the aggregate Acquisition Facility Commitments,
(ii) the Total Working Capital Facility Extensions of Credit shall exceed the aggregate Working Capital Facility Commitments, and/or
(iii) any extension of credit under this Agreement shall result in any Applicable Sub-Limit being exceeded, then (A) the Borrowers’
Agent shall specify, at its sole discretion, one or more Loans of a Borrower or Borrowers to be prepaid and such Borrower or Borrowers
shall prepay such Loans and (B) if no Loans are then outstanding, the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize, replace or decrease (if
the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit agrees to such decrease) the amount of outstanding Letters of Credit by an amount sufficient
to eliminate such excess, no later than three (3) Business Days immediately following such date.

 

(c)          Unless
the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree, if on any date any Borrower or any Guarantor shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any
individual Asset Sale or Recovery Event, then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof within three
(3) Business Days thereafter, 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on such third Business Day toward the prepayment
of the relevant Loans (provided, however, that the Borrowers’ Agent shall specify, at its sole discretion,
the Loan or Loans of the Borrowers to be so prepaid) and Cash Collateralization of the relevant Letters of Credit in accordance
with and Section 4.7(d);

 

    	-58-

    	 

    

 

(d)          The
Borrowers’ Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent by written notice of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment
of a Eurodollar Loan, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time), three (3) Business Days before the date of the prepayment,
(ii) in the case of prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of the prepayment
and (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swing Line Loan, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of prepayment.
Each such notice shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Loan or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in
the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the required amount of such prepayment. Promptly following
receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swing Line Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each prepayment of an extension of credit shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the
prepaid extension of credit and otherwise in accordance with this Section 4.7(d). Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued
interest to the extent required by Section 4.2.

 

(e)          Any
prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.7, and the rights of the Lenders in respect thereof, are subject to
the provisions of Section 4.9.

 

(f)          For
the avoidance of doubt, no amounts prepaid under this Section 4.7 shall permanently reduce any Commitments.

 

4.8           Computation
of Interest and Fees. (a)  All fees and interest on Base Rate Loans that are calculated using clause (c) of
the definition of “Base Rate” and Eurodollar Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual
days elapsed. Interest on Base Rate Loans (other than Base Rate Loans that are calculated using clause (c) of the definition
of “Base Rate”) shall be calculated on the basis of a 365/366-day year, as the case may be, for the actual days elapsed.
The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrowers’ Agent and the Lenders of each determination of
each Eurodollar Rate for any Eurodollar Loans outstanding. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in
the Base Rate 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 Borrowers’ Agent and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each
such change in interest rate.

 

(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 Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the
Borrowers’ Agent, deliver to the Borrowers’ Agent a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent
in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 4.2(a).

 

4.9           Pro
Rata Treatment and Payments. (a)  Other than as expressly set forth herein, each borrowing by any Borrower from the
Lenders hereunder and any reduction of the Commitments under any Facility shall be made pro rata according to the respective
Commitment Percentages, as applicable, of the Lenders under such Facility. Other than as expressly set forth herein, each payment
(including each prepayment) by any Borrower on account of principal of and interest and fees on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations
under any Facility shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans and Reimbursement
Obligations under such Facility, respectively, then held by the Lenders.

 

    	-59-

    	 

    

 

(b)          All
payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder on account of principal of Loans (other than Base Rate Loans
on any day other than the Maturity Date of such Loans) shall be accompanied by a payment in an amount equal to all accrued and
unpaid interest on such Loans. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of
principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 p.m.
(New York City time) on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders at the Administrative
Agent’s office specified in Section 11.2 in United States Dollars in immediately available funds. The Administrative
Agent shall distribute such payments to the appropriate Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment
hereunder (other than payments on Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment obligation
shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable
at the then applicable rate during such extension. 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.

 

(c)          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 Commitment Percentage 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 Borrowers 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 Section 4.9 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error. If such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such
Lender within three (3) Business Days of 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 Borrowers (without duplication of
the interest otherwise applicable thereto).

 

(d)          Subject
to Section 4.18, the application of any payment of Loans (including optional and mandatory prepayments), along with the
application of any proceeds obtained upon the exercise of remedies by the Agents for the Lenders hereunder or under any Loan Document,
shall be made to each Lender based upon its Commitment Percentage, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurodollar
Loans. Each payment of the Eurodollar Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount
paid.

 

4.10         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 or the Administrative Agent 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 date hereof:

 

(i)          does
or shall subject any Lender or the Administrative Agent to any Tax or increased Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, any Loan or any Letter of Credit made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments
to such Lender or the Administrative Agent in respect thereof (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to (x) any
U.S. federal withholding Tax or Other Taxes, as to which Section 4.11 shall govern, or (y) any Tax imposed on or measured
by a Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s net income (to the extent it does not change the basis of taxation), including
without limitation any changes in the rate of net income Taxes (or franchise Taxes in lieu thereof) imposed on a Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as applicable);

 

(ii)         does
or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge 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 which is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar
Rate; or

(iii)        does
or shall impose on such Lender or the Administrative Agent any other condition, cost or expense (provided, however,
that the foregoing shall not apply to (x) any U.S. federal withholding Tax or Other Taxes, as to which Section 4.11 shall
govern, or (y) any Tax imposed on or measured by a Lender’s net income (to the extent it does not change the basis of taxation),
including any changes in the rate of net income Taxes (or franchise Taxes in lieu thereof) imposed on a Lender); and the result
of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or the Administrative Agent of making, Converting into, Continuing
or maintaining this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any Loan or issuing, providing and maintaining any Letter of Credit or
holding an interest in any Issuing Lender’s obligations thereunder, or to reduce any amount receivable by the Lender or the
Administrative Agent in respect thereof, then the Lender or the Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to designate
a different Applicable Lending Office for funding or booking Loans or issuing Letters of Credit if, in the judgment of such Lender
or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, such designation (x) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section
4.10 or eliminate the need to provide the notice specified in clause (c) of this Section 4.10 and (y) would not subject
such Lender or the Administrative Agent to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such
Lender or the Administrative Agent; then, in any such case, and to the extent that such cost is not fully compensated for by an
adjustment to the Eurodollar Rate, the Base Rate or any fee on a Letter of Credit or mitigated pursuant to a change in such Lender’s
Applicable Lending Office, the Borrowers shall promptly, after receiving notice as specified in clause (c) of this Section 4.10,
pay such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or
the Administrative Agent for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable on a net after-Tax basis

 

(b)          If
any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity
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 or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority
made subsequent to the date hereof 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 and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, the
Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction
on a net after-Tax basis.

 

(c)          If
any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.10, it shall promptly notify
the Borrowers’ Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.
A certificate prepared in good faith as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.10 submitted by
such Lender to the Borrowers’ Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error. The agreements in this Section 4.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans,
Reimbursement Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder. No Lender shall be entitled to claim any additional amounts
pursuant to Section 4.10(a) and (b) for circumstances which occurred more than 180 days prior to the date such Lender
makes a request for payment hereunder.

(d)          It
is agreed and understood that, for all purposes under this Agreement (including for purposes of this Section 4.10 and Section
4.11) that (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements
or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith on in implementation thereof and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines,
requirements or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or
any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III,
shall in each case be deemed to be an adoption or change in a Requirement of Law made subsequent to the date hereof, regardless
of the date enacted, adopted, implemented or issued.

 

4.11         Taxes.
(a)  Any and all payments by or on behalf of each Loan Party or any Agent under or in respect of this Agreement or any
other Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party shall, unless otherwise required by law, be made free and clear of, and
without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges
or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or
hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or other Governmental Authority (collectively,
“Taxes”). If any Loan Party or the Agent shall be required under any Requirement of Law to deduct or withhold
any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under or in respect of this Agreement, the Loans, the Letters of Credit or any
of the other Loan Documents to any Agent or Lender (including for purposes of this Section 4.11 and Section 4.10
any assignee, successor or participant), as determined in good faith by the applicable Loan Party or Agent, (i) such Loan Party
or Agent shall make all such deductions and withholdings in respect of Taxes, (ii) such Loan Party or Agent shall pay the full
amount deducted or withheld in respect of Taxes to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance
with any Requirement of Law, and (iii) in the case of any Non-Excluded Taxes, the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased
as may be necessary so that after such Loan Party or Agent has made all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions
and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 4.11) such Lender or Agent receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made or required in respect of Non-Excluded
Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement the term “Non-Excluded Taxes” are Taxes other than, (i) in the case of
a Lender or Agent, Taxes that are imposed on it by the jurisdiction (or political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which
such Lender or Agent is organized or has its applicable lending office, unless such Taxes are imposed solely as a result of such
Lender or Agent having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payments under, or enforced, this Agreement,
the Loans, the Letters of Credit or any of the other Loan Documents, in which case such Taxes will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes,
(ii) net income, franchise or branch profit taxes imposed on a Lender or an Agent (A) by the jurisdiction (or political subdivision
thereof) under the laws of which such Lender or Agent is organized or has its principal office or applicable lending office or
(B) that are Other Connection Taxes, (iii) any U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed on any payment under the law as of the Closing
Date, (iv) any Tax imposed on a Transferee (other than an assignee pursuant to a request by the Borrowers’ Agent under Section
4.17) or successor Agent to the extent that, under applicable Law in effect on the date of the transfer to such Transferee
or such successor Agent, the amount of such Tax exceeds the Non-Excluded Taxes, if any, that were imposed on payments to the transferring
Lender or predecessor Agent, or (v) any U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed under FATCA. For the avoidance of doubt, the exclusions
described in the preceding sentence will apply to the same effect to direct or indirect beneficial owners of a Lender that is fiscally
transparent.

 

(b)          In
addition, each Loan Party hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, property or value-added
taxes, or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made under or in respect of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, any performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement
or any other Loan Document (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

 

    	-62-

    	 

    

(c)          Each
Loan Party hereby agrees to indemnify each Lender that is not fiscally transparent and, in the case of a Lender that is fiscally
transparent, its direct or indirect beneficial owners for which such Loan Party has received proof of such ownership and entitlement
to the benefits of this Section 4.11 (subject to the same conditions for, and exclusions from indemnification as are applicable
to a Lender that is not fiscally transparent), and each Agent for, and to hold each harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded
Taxes and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.11
imposed on or paid by such Lender or Agent, and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising
therefrom or with respect thereto. The indemnity by the Loan Parties provided for in this Section 4.11(c) shall apply
and be made whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly
or legally asserted. Amounts payable by any Loan Party under the indemnity set forth in this Section 4.11(c) shall
be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which the Lender or Agent makes written demand therefor.

 

(d)          Within
thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the applicable Loan Party (or any Person making such payment on behalf
of the Loan Parties) shall furnish to Lender and/or Agent for its own account a certified copy of the original official receipt
evidencing payment thereof or, if unavailable, such evidence as is reasonably satisfactory to such Lender or Agent. A certificate
as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),
or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(e)          For
purposes of this Section 4.11(e), the terms “United States” and “United States person”
shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Code. Each Lender (including for avoidance of doubt any assignee,
successor or participant) or Agent (including for the avoidance of doubt any successor) (i) that is not incorporated under the
laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia or (ii) whose name does not include “Incorporated”,
“Inc.”, “Corporation”, “Corp.”, “P.C.”, “N.A.”, “National Association”,
“insurance company”, or “assurance company” (in the case of a Lender, a “Non-Exempt Lender”)
and (in the case of an Agent, a “Non-Exempt Agent”) shall at or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of
a Transferee of a Lender or a successor to an Agent, on or prior to the date such Person becomes a Transferee or Agent, deliver
or cause to be delivered to each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers’ Agent original copies of the following properly
completed and duly executed documents:

 

(i)          in
the case of a Non-Exempt Lender or Non-Exempt Agent that is not a United States person or is a foreign disregarded entity for U.S.
federal income tax purposes that is entitled to provide such form, a complete and executed (x) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8BEN with Part II completed in which Lender claims the benefits of a tax treaty with the United States providing for a zero or
reduced rate of withholding (or any successor forms thereto), including all appropriate attachments or (y) U.S. Internal Revenue
Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms thereto); or

 

(ii)         in
the case of a Non-Exempt Lender or Non-Exempt Agent that is an individual, (x) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms thereto) and a certificate substantially in the form of the applicable Exhibit D-1,
D-2, D-3 or D-4 (a “Section 4.11 Certificate”) or (y) a complete and executed U.S.
Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto); or

 

(iii)        in
the case of a Non-Exempt Lender or Non-Exempt Agent that is organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or
the District of Columbia, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto); or

 

    	-63-

    	 

    

 

(iv)        in
the case of a Non-Exempt Lender or Non-Exempt Agent that (x) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof,
or the District of Columbia and (y) is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a complete and executed U.S.
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms thereto) and a Section 4.11 Certificate; or

 

(v)         in
the case of a Non-Exempt Lender or Non-Exempt Agent that (A) is treated as a partnership or other non-corporate entity and (B)
is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, (x)(i) a complete and executed
U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and
(ii) a Section 4.11 Certificate, and (y) if the Non-Exempt Lender or Non-Exempt Agent is not a withholding foreign partnership
or withholding foreign trust, without duplication, with respect to each of its beneficial owners and the beneficial owners of such
beneficial owners looking through chains of owners to individuals or entities that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal
income tax purposes (all such owners, “beneficial owners”), the documents that would be provided by each such
beneficial owner pursuant to this Section 4.11(e) if each such beneficial owner were a Lender; or

 

(vi)        in
the case of a Non-Exempt Lender or Non-Exempt Agent that is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the document that
would be provided by its beneficial owner pursuant to this Section 4.11(e) if such beneficial owner were the Lender;
or

 

(vii)       in
the case of a Non-Exempt Lender or Non-Exempt Agent that (A) is not a United States person and (B) is acting in the capacity of
an “intermediary” (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), (x)(i) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or
any successor form thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 4.11 Certificate, and (y)
if the intermediary is a “non-qualified intermediary” (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), from each person upon
whose behalf the “non-qualified intermediary” is acting the documents that would be provided by such person pursuant
to this Section 4.11(e) if each such person were a Lender.

 

Each Lender that is not a Non-Exempt Lender
or Non-Exempt Agent shall, at or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Transferee, on or prior to the date such Person
becomes a Transferee, deliver to each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers’ Agent a complete and executed U.S. Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto). If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject
to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements
of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall
deliver to the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times
reasonably requested by the Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law
(including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested
by the Borrowers’ Agent or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative
Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations
under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph, “FATCA”
shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

 

Each Person required to deliver any forms,
certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal withholding tax matters pursuant to Section 4.11(e)
hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Person of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever
a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material
respect, that such Person, to the extent it is entitled to do so, shall promptly (x) deliver to each of the Administrative Agent
and the Borrowers’ Agent new originals of any forms or other certifications required under this Section 4.11(e),
properly completed and duly executed by such Person, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption required in
order to confirm or establish that such Person is entitled to an exemption or reduction in the amount of United States federal
income tax required to be withheld from payments to such Person under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or (y) notify
the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers’ Agent of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence
in which case such Person shall not be required to deliver any such form or certificate pursuant to this Section 4.11(e).

 

    	-64-

    	 

    

 

(f)          For
any period with respect to which Lender has failed to provide Borrower with the appropriate form, certificate or other document
described in Section 4.11(e), if required (other than if such failure is due to a change in any Requirement of Law,
or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally
was required to be provided by such Lender, such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under Section
4.11(a) or (c) with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided,
however, that should a Lender become subject to Non-Excluded Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate
or other document required hereunder, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts as such Lender shall reasonably request
to assist such Lender in recovering such Non-Excluded Taxes.

 

(g)          Without
prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Loan Parties hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Loan Parties
contained in this Section 4.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing
contained in Section 4.10 or this Section 4.11 shall require any Agent or Lender to make available any of its
tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

 

4.12         Lending
Offices. Loans of each Type made by any Lender shall be made and maintained at such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office
for Loans of such Type.

 

4.13         Credit
Utilization Reporting. (a)  Within five (5) Business Days after the end of each calendar month, each Issuing Lender
shall deliver a report to the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form of Annex IV (a “Credit Utilization Summary”
and, collectively, the “Credit Utilization Summaries”), setting forth, for each Letter of Credit issued or provided
by such Issuing Lender, (i) the amount available to be drawn or utilized under such Letters of Credit as of the end of such calendar
month and (ii) the amount of any drawings, payments or reductions of such Letters of Credit during such month, in each case, on
an aggregate and per Letter of Credit basis. Upon receiving notice from a Borrower or the beneficiary under a Letter of Credit
issued or provided by such Issuing Lender of a reduction or termination of such Letter of Credit, each Issuing Lender shall notify
the Administrative Agent thereof.

 

(b)          Within
five (5) Business Days after receiving each Credit Utilization Summary from the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall
deliver to each Lender (i) the Credit Utilization Summaries of all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit and Loans, (ii) the
information referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 4.13(a), on an aggregate basis, and (iii) for each
Type of Loan, (A) the amount outstanding under such Loans as of the last day of such calendar month and (B) the amount of any payments
of such Loans during such month.

 

4.14         Indemnity.
The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any actual loss or expense
(other than, in the case of expenses, any administrative, processing or similar fee in respect thereof exceeding $100 for each
affected Lender for each relevant event) which such Lender sustains or incurs as a result of (a) default by any Borrower
in making a borrowing of, Conversion into or Continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrowers’ Agent has given a notice
requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrowers in making any prepayment
of a Eurodollar Loan after the Borrowers’ Agent has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect
thereto. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations
and all other amounts payable hereunder.

4.15         Inability
to Determine Interest Rate. (a)  If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

 

(i)          the
Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers) that, by reason
of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the relevant Eurodollar
Rate for such Interest Period; or

 

(ii)         the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the relevant Eurodollar Rate determined or to be
determined for such Interest Period, as applicable, will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or
maintaining their affected Eurodollar Loans during such Interest Period;

 

then the Administrative Agent shall give
written notice thereof to the Borrowers’ Agent and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter.

 

(b)          If
such notice is given with respect to the Eurodollar Rate applicable to Eurodollar Loans, (x) any such Eurodollar Loan requested
to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as a Base Rate Loan, (y) any Base Rate Loans that were to have
been Converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall not be so Converted and shall continue as Base
Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be Converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Base Rate Loans.
Until such notice has been revoked by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or Continued as such,
nor shall the Borrowers’ Agent have the right to Convert Loans into such Type.

 

(c)          The
Administrative Agent shall promptly revoke (i) any such notice pursuant to clause (a) above if the Administrative Agent determines
that adequate and reasonable means exist for ascertaining the relevant Eurodollar Rate for the applicable Interest Period and (ii)
any such notice pursuant to clause (b) above upon receipt of notice from the requisite Lenders necessary to give such notice
in clause (b) that the relevant circumstances described in such clause (b) have ceased to exist.

 

4.16         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 suspended to the extent necessary for such Lender to avoid any such unlawful action until
such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent that it is lawful to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement
and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be Converted automatically to available and
lawful Interest Periods, if any, or Base Rate Loans, at the option of the Borrowers’ Agent, 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 Borrowers
shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 4.14.

4.17         Replacement
of Lenders. If (a)(i)(A) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to or indemnify any Lender pursuant to Section 4.11
or (B) any Lender requests compensation under Section 4.10, and (ii) in the case of Section 4.11, a Lender has
declined to designate a different Applicable Lending Office, (b) any Lender invokes Section 4.16, (c) any Lender becomes
a Defaulting Lender, or (d) any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver or other modification that, pursuant
to the terms of Section 11.1, requires the consent of all the Lenders, or all affected Lenders, and with respect to
which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then, in each case, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Borrowers’ Agent may, at its sole cost and expense, upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions
and obligations contained in Section 11.7), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant
to Sections 4.10 and 4.11) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (or all of its interests,
rights and obligations in respect of the Loans or Commitments that are the subject of the related amendment, waiver or other modification)
to an assignee that shall assume such obligations and become a Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents; provided that (i) the transferring Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to (A) the outstanding
principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, and accrued fees payable to it hereunder, from the Assignee and (B) any additional
amounts (including indemnity payments) payable to it hereunder from the Borrowers and (ii) in the case of a transferring Lender
that is also an Issuing Lender, the Letters of Credit issued by such transferring Lender shall have been cash collateralized or
backed by a letter of credit or other credit support from a non-Defaulting Lender or other bank reasonably acceptable to the transferring
Lender, in each case, on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to such transferring Lender; provided, further,
that, if, upon such demand by the Borrowers’ Agent, such Lender elects to waive its request for additional compensation pursuant
to Sections 4.10 or 4.11, or consents to the proposed amendment, waiver or other modification, the demand by the
Borrowers’ Agent for such Lender to so assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall thereupon be deemed
withdrawn. Nothing in this Section 4.17 shall affect or postpone any of the rights of any Lender or any of the Obligations
of the Borrowers under any of the foregoing provisions of Sections 4.10, 4.11 or 4.16 in any manner. Each
Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to
execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment
of such Lender’s interest hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 4.17.

 

4.18         Defaulting
Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if at any time a Lender becomes a Defaulting
Lender, the following provisions shall apply so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

 

(a)          If
any Defaulting Lender (or a Lender who would be a Defaulting Lender but for the expiration of the relevant grace period) as a result
of the exercise of a set-off shall have received a payment in respect of its Loans or its participation interests in Swing Line
Loans, or Letters of Credit which results in its Extensions of Credit under any Facility being less than its Commitment Percentage
of the Total Extensions of Credit under such Facility, then payments (including principal, interest and fees) to such Defaulting
Lender will be suspended until such time as all amounts due and owing to the Lenders under such Facility have been equalized in
accordance with such Lenders’ Commitment Percentages of the Total Extensions of Credit under such Facility. Further, if at
any time prior to the acceleration or maturity of the Obligations under any Facility with respect to which a Defaulting Lender
is a Lender at such time, the Administrative Agent shall receive any payment in respect of principal of a Loan or a reimbursement
of a Letter of Credit under such Facility, the Administrative Agent shall apply such payment first to the Loans and participations
in Letters of Credit and, if applicable, Swing Line Loans, under such Facility and for which such Defaulting Lender shall have
failed to fund its pro rata share until such time as such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund such Loans and/or participations
are paid in full or each Lender under such Facility is owed its Commitment Percentage of the Total Extensions of Credit under such
Facility. After acceleration or maturity of the Obligations under any Facility to which a Defaulting Lender is a Lender, subject
to the first sentence of this Section 4.18(a), all principal will be paid ratably as provided in Section 4.9(a).

(b)          Notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall
apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

 

(i)          fees
shall cease to accrue on the Available Commitments of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.6.

 

(ii)         with
respect to the obligation of a Lender to fund its pro rata of portion of an Acquisition Facility Loan or a Working Capital
Facility Loan pursuant to Section 2.4(c), all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion
of such requested Loan shall be reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders under such Facility in accordance with each Non-Defaulting
Lender’s Commitment Percentage (calculated without regard to any Defaulting Lender’s Commitments under such Facility)
but only to the extent that (x) the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Available Commitments under such Facility is greater
than zero, (y) the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied at such time and (z) each such Non-Defaulting Lender’s
Available Commitment under such Facility is greater than zero

 

(iii)        with
respect to any L/C Participation Obligation or Refunded Swing Line Loan, Swing Line Participation (collectively, “Participation
Obligations”) of such Defaulting Lender that exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or thereafter:

 

(A)         all
or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion of all Participation Obligation under each Facility to which
such Defaulting Lender is a Lender shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders under such Facility in accordance with
their respective Commitment Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment under such Facility)
but only to the extent that (x) the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Available Commitments under such Facility is greater
than zero, (y) the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied at such time and (z) each such Non-Defaulting Lender’s
Available Commitment under such Facility is greater than zero;

 

(B)         if
the reallocation described in clause (ii)(A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, then the Borrowers shall
within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent (1) Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s
portion of the Letters of Credit under the applicable Facility (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause
(ii)(A) above) for so long as such Letters of Credit are outstanding and (2) after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant
to clause (ii)(A) above, if such Defaulting Lender is a Working Capital Facility Lender, repay the non-reallocated amount
of each Swing Line Loan for so long as such Refunded Swing Line Loan and Swing Line Participation are outstanding;

 

(C)         if
the Participation Obligations of the Non-Defaulting Lenders under the relevant Facility are reallocated pursuant to clause (ii)(A)
above or Cash Collateralized or repaid pursuant to clause (ii)(B), then the fees payable to the Lenders under such Facility
pursuant to Section 2.6 shall be adjusted or reduced, as applicable, in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders’
Commitment Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment under such Facility); and

 

    	-68-

    	 

    

 

(D)         if
any Defaulting Lender’s portion of the Participation Obligations under any Facility is neither Cash Collateralized nor reallocated
pursuant to this Section 4.18(b)(ii), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies hereunder of the Lenders and Issuing
Lenders under such Facility and, in the case of the Working Capital Facility, the Swing Line Lender, all commitment and commission
fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s
Commitment under such Facility that was utilized by the Participation Obligations under such Facility) and letter of credit fees
payable under Section 3.5(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s portion of the Letters of Credit under such
Facility shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders under such Facility and, in the case of the Working Capital Facility, and the
Swing Line Lender, pro rata, until such Participation Obligations are Cash Collateralized, reallocated and/or repaid in
full.

 

(c)          So
long as any Lender under the Working Capital Facility is a Defaulting Lender, (i) no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue,
amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the exposure of the L/C Participants in respect of such Letter
of Credit will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders under the Working Capital Facility and/or Cash
Collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 4.18(b), and participating interests in any such
newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders under the Working Capital Facility in
a manner consistent with Section 3.5 (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein), and (ii) the Swing Line Lender
shall not be required to advance any Swing Line Loan, unless it is satisfied that the remaining Working Capital Facility Lenders’
exposure in respect of such Swing Line Loan will be 100% covered by the Working Capital Facility Commitments of the Non-Defaulting
Lenders under the Working Capital Facility.

 

(d)          So
long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall not be a Qualified Counterparty with respect to any Commodity
OTC Agreements or Financial Hedging Agreements, or a Qualified Cash Management Bank with respect to a Cash Management Bank Agreement,
entered into while such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

 

(e)          In
the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers’ Agent and each Issuing Lender under a Facility in which a Defaulting
Lender is a Lender, and, in the case of the Working Capital Facility, and the Swing Line Lender, each agrees that a Defaulting
Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Participation Obligations
under such Facility shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment under such Facility,
and on such date each Lender under such Facility shall purchase at par such of the Loans, funded Participation Obligations and
Commitments under such Facility as the Collateral Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such
Loans, funded Participation Obligations and Commitments in accordance with its Commitment Percentage with respect to such Facility.

the legal right, to execute, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to borrow hereunder and has taken

Notes and to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. Except for (a) the
filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and equivalent filings for foreign jurisdictions and the taking of applicable
actions referred to in Section 5.16 and (b) the filings or other actions listed on Schedule 5.4 (and including,

made or taken and are in full force and effect), no consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect
of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person, to which any Borrower or other Loan Party is subject, is required in connection
with the borrowings hereunder or with the execution, delivery, validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents to which the Loan
Parties are a party (except for any reports required to be filed by the Borrowers’ Agent with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange

on behalf of such Loan Party. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which it is a party when executed and
delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance
with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar
laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding
in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

 

5.5           No
Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which any of the Loan Parties is a party, the borrowings
hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof (i) will not violate any Requirement of Law, in each case to the extent applicable
to or binding upon such Loan Party or its Properties, (ii) will not violate a material Contractual Obligation of any of the Loan
Parties, except where such violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) will not result
in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any such Requirement
of Law or Contractual Obligation (other than Liens created by the Security Documents in favor of the Collateral Agent and Liens
permitted by Section 8.3).

 

5.6           No

5.7           No
Default. No Loan Party is in default under or with respect to any Contractual Obligation in any respect, which could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

5.8           Ownership
of Property; Liens. Except for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently
conducted or to utilize such properties and assets for their intended purposes and except where the failure to have such title
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Loan Party has defensible title in fee simple to, or
a valid leasehold interest in, all its real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its tangible personal
property, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 8.3.

 

    	-71-

    	 

    

 

5.9           Intellectual
Property. Each Loan Party owns, is licensed to use or has a common law or contractual right to access and use, all material
trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents, technology, know-how and processes necessary for the conduct of its business as currently
conducted (the “Intellectual Property”) except for those the failure to own or license which could not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.9, no claim has been asserted nor is pending
by any Person challenging or questioning the use by any such Loan Party of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness
of any such Intellectual Property, nor does any Loan Party know of any valid basis for any such claim, except any claim that could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The use of such Intellectual Property by the Loan Parties does not
infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such claims and infringements that, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.10         No
Burdensome Restrictions. No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation of any Loan Party has or could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.11         Taxes.
(a)  Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed all material Tax returns required
to be filed and has timely paid all material Taxes due and payable by it or imposed with respect to any of its property and all
other material fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than any Taxes
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 have been provided on the books of the Loan Parties).

 

(b)          There

5.12         Federal
Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying”
any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U, or for any purpose

or the Collateral Agent, the Borrowers will furnish to the Collateral 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 said Regulation U.

 

    	-72-

    	 

    

 

5.13         ERISA.
Neither a Reportable Event nor a failure to satisfy the minimum funding requirements of Section 412 or 430 of the Code has occurred
during the six-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made or is reasonably expected to occur
with respect to any Single Employer Plan, no Plan is reasonably expected to be in “at risk” status within the meaning
of Section 430 of the Code and each Plan (including, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, a Multiemployer Plan or a multiemployer
welfare plan maintained pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement) has complied in all respects with the applicable provisions
of ERISA, the Code and the constituent documents of such Plan, except in each of the foregoing cases for circumstances that, in
the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has
occurred during such six-year period or is reasonably expected to occur (other than a termination described in Section 4041(b)
of ERISA), and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen during such six-year period or is reasonably expected to arise.
Except to the extent that any such excess could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, 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. Except to the extent that such liability could not reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Loan Parties nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal
from any Multiemployer Plan, and the Loan Parties would not become subject to any liability under ERISA if a Loan Party or any
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. To the knowledge of the Loan Parties, no such Multiemployer Plan
is in Reorganization, Insolvent or terminating or is reasonably expected to be in Reorganization, become Insolvent or be terminated
or is, or is reasonably expected to be in endangered, seriously endangered or critical status, in each case within the meaning
of Section 432 of the Code. Except to the extent that any such excess could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, the present value (determined using actuarial and other assumptions which are reasonable in respect of the benefits provided
and the employees participating) of the aggregate liabilities of the Loan Parties and each Commonly Controlled Entity for the provision
of post-retirement benefits to their current and former employees under Plans which are welfare benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(1)
of ERISA) do not, in the aggregate, exceed the total assets under all such Plans allocable to such benefits except as disclosed
in the financial statements of the Loan Parties. Neither the Loan Parties nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has engaged in a prohibited
transaction under Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code in connection with any Plan that would subject
any Loan Party to liability under ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. There is no other circumstance which may give rise to a liability in relation to any Plan that could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

5.14         Investment
Company Act; Other Regulations. None of the Loan Parties is required to register as an “investment company”, or
a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940. The Loan Parties are not subject to regulation under any federal or state statute or regulation (other than Regulation X
of the Board) which limits their ability to incur Indebtedness.

 

5.15         Subsidiaries.
Schedule 5.15 sets forth as of the Closing Date the names of all direct or indirect Subsidiaries of the Borrowers, their
respective forms of organization, their respective jurisdictions of organization, the total number of issued and outstanding shares
or other interests of Capital Stock thereof, the classes and number of issued and outstanding shares or other interests of Capital
Stock of each such class, and with respect to the Borrowers (other than the Borrowers’ Agent), the name of each holder of
Capital Stock thereof and the number of shares or other interests of such Capital Stock held by each such holder and the percentage
of all outstanding shares or other interests of such class of Capital Stock held by such holders.

 

5.16         Security
Documents. (a)  The provisions of the Security Documents are effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent
for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties a legal, valid and enforceable Lien in all right, title and interest of each Loan
Party party thereto in the “Collateral” described therein, subject to any Liens permitted by Section 8.3.

 

(b)          When
proper financing statements or other applicable filings listed in Schedule 5.16 have been filed in the offices in the
jurisdictions listed in Schedule 5.16, the security interest granted under the Security Agreement shall constitute a perfected
first Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Borrowers and those Loan Parties party thereto in
the portion of the “Collateral” described therein that consists of assets included in the Borrowing Base hereunder,
which can be perfected by such filing, subject to any Permitted Borrowing Base Liens.

 

    	-73-

    	 

    

 

(c)          When
an Account Control Agreement has been entered into with respect to each Pledged Account, the Security Agreement shall constitute
a Perfected First Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Party party thereto in the portion
of the “Collateral” described therein that consists of Pledged Accounts, prior and superior in right to any other Person,
subject to any Permitted Cash Management Liens.

 

5.17         Accuracy
and Completeness of Information. All written factual information, reports and other papers and data with respect to the Loan
Parties (other than the Projections (as defined below) and information of a general economic or industry-specific nature) furnished
pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and all factual statements and representations made in writing, to the
Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers, or the Lenders by any Loan Party were, at the time the same were so furnished or made, when taken
together with all such other factual written information, reports and other papers and data previously so furnished and all such
other factual statements and representations previously so made in writing, complete and correct in all material respects, to the
extent necessary to give the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers, and the Lenders true and accurate knowledge of the subject matter
thereof in all material respects, and did not, as of the date so furnished or made, contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of
the circumstances in which the same were made. The financial estimates, projected financial information and other forward-looking
statements (the “Projections”) contained in the materials referenced above were based upon good faith estimates and
assumptions believed by the Loan Parties to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers,
and the Lenders that such Projections are not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered
by such Projections may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount. No representation or warranty
is made with respect to information of a general economic or industry-specific nature.

 

5.18         Labor
Relations. No Loan Party is engaged in any unfair labor practice which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there is (a) no unfair labor practice
complaint pending or, to the best knowledge of each Loan Party, threatened against a Loan Party before the National Labor Relations
Board and no grievance or arbitration proceeding arising out of or under a collective bargaining agreement is so pending or, to
the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened, (b) no strike, labor dispute, slowdown or stoppage pending or threatened against
a Loan Party, and (c) no union representation question existing with respect to the employees of a Loan Party and, no union
organizing activities are taking place with respect to any thereof.

 

5.19         Insurance.
As of the Closing Date, each Loan Party has, with respect to its properties and business, insurance covering the risks, in the
amounts, with deductibles or other retention amounts, and with the carriers listed in the Disclosure Letter, which insurance meets
the requirements of Section 7.5 hereof as of the Closing Date.

 

5.20         Solvency.
(a)  As of the Closing Date, and each other Borrowing Date, immediately after giving effect to Loans and Letters of
Credit to be made, issued or provided on such date, (i) the amount of the “present fair saleable value” of the
assets of each Borrower and of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will, as of such time, exceed
the amount of all “liabilities of each Borrower and of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole,
contingent or otherwise”, such quoted terms are determined in accordance with applicable federal and state Laws governing
determinations of the insolvency of debtors, (ii) the present fair saleable value of the assets of each Borrower and of the
Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay
the liabilities of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, on their respective debts as such debts become absolute
and matured, (iii) each Borrower and of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will not have
an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to conduct their respective businesses, and (iv) each Borrower and of
the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be able to pay their respective debts as they mature.
For purposes of this Section 5.20, “debt” means “liability on a claim”, “claim”
means any (x) right to payment, whether or not such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent,
matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured or unsecured, and (y) right to an equitable remedy for
breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a right to payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced
to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured or unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured.

5.21         Use
of Letters of Credit and Proceeds of Loans. (a)  The proceeds of (i) the Working Capital Facility Loans shall
be used only (A) to finance the Loan Parties’ purchase, storage and sale of Eligible Commodities, (B) for hedging
related to the purchase, storage and sale of Eligible Commodities, (C) to finance the carrying of accounts receivable, (D)
for the payment of contractual margin calls (with respect to exchange-traded contracts, over-the-counter contracts and

Agents and any other Secured Parties, and for the general working capital purposes of the Loan Parties, (F) to refinance
all or a portion of the Existing Credit Facilities, and (G) for other general corporate purposes; and (ii) the

5.22         Environmental
Matters. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.22:

 

(a)          To
each Loan Party’s knowledge, the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by the Loan Parties (the “Properties”)
do not contain, and have not previously contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations which (i) constitute
or constituted a violation of, or (ii) could give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law except in either case insofar
as such violation or liability, or any aggregation thereof, is not reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)          To
each Loan Party’s knowledge, (i) except where the failure to be in compliance could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, the Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance, and have, for the lesser of the
last five years or for the duration of their ownership, lease, or operation by Loan Parties, been in compliance in all material
respects with all applicable Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits, and (ii) there is no contamination at, under or about
the Properties or violation of any Environmental Law or Environmental Permit with respect to the Properties or the business at
the Properties operated by Loan Parties (the “Business”) which could materially interfere with the continued
operation of the Properties or materially impair the fair saleable value thereof. All Environmental Permits necessary in connection
with the ownership and operation of each Loan Party’s business have been obtained and are in full force and effect, except
where any such failure to obtain and maintain in full force and effect (individually or in the aggregate) has not had and is not
reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

    	-75-

    	 

    

 

(c)          No
Loan Party has received any written notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability pursuant
to Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits with regard to any of the Properties or the Business, nor do the Loan Parties have

Materials of Environmental Concern been generated, treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any of the Properties in violation
of, or in a manner that could give rise to liability under, any applicable Environmental Law, except insofar as any such violation
or liability referred to in this paragraph, or any aggregation thereof, is not reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.

 

(e)          No
judicial proceeding or governmental or administrative action is pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened, under

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.

terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding

Document or otherwise exist against any Agent.

 

10.2         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.

 

10.3         Exculpatory
Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or
Affiliates (each, an “Agent-Related Person”) 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 for
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 Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or

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. In no event shall the Agents be responsible or liable for special, indirect,
punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective
of whether such Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

 

    	-99-

    	 

    

 

10.4         Reliance
by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Note, writing,
resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, 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 Borrowers or any other Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent with reasonable
care. The Agents may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a notice of
assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with such Agent. 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 such greater percentage of Lenders as shall be required therefor under Section
11.1) as it deems appropriate or as otherwise required by Section 11.1 or it shall first be indemnified to
its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action. 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 such greater
percentage of Lenders as shall be required therefor under Section 11.1) and such request and any action taken or
failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans and all other
Obligations.

 

10.5         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 has received notice from a Lender, or the Borrowers’ Agent or any other Loan Party
referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice
thereof to the Lenders. The Agents shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be
reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until an Agent shall have received such
directions, such 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.

 

10.6         Non-Reliance
on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that none of the Agents nor any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates has made any representations or
warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrowers or any
Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents
to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon 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 Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and made its own
decision to extend credit to the Borrowers hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will,
independently and without reliance upon 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 Borrowers
and other Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by
the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, 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 the Borrowers or any other Loan
Party which may come into the possession of such Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall have any duty
to monitor the Collateral used to calculate the Borrowing Base or the reporting requirements or the contents of reports
delivered by the Borrowers’ Agent. Each Lender assumes the responsibility of keeping itself informed at all times.

10.7         Indemnification.
The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent and each other Agent-Related Person on an after-Tax basis in its capacity as such
(to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably
according to their respective Commitment Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought, from and
against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment
of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and the cash collateralization of the L/C Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by
or asserted against such Agent or such Agent-Related Person in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this
Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents 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 Agent under or in connection with any of
the foregoing (including the fees and expenses of such Agent’s or such Agent-Related Person’s counsel); 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 resulting solely from such Agent’s or such Agent-Related
Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 10.7 shall survive the
payment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all amounts payable hereunder and the cash collateralization of the L/C
Obligations.

 

10.8         Agents
in Their Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates may make loans and other extensions of
credit to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties
and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
With respect to the Loans and other extensions of credit made by it hereunder, 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
Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

 

10.9         Successor
Agents. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent,
as applicable, upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrowers’ Agent and the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent
or the Collateral Agent shall resign as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint BMO Harris Bank N.A. as the replacement Agent in such
capacity; provided that the Credit Exposure Percentage of BMO Harris Bank with respect to the Facilities at such time
is not less than 35%, unless BMO Harris Bank N.A. is not willing to serve in such capacity, in which case the Required
Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders (unless no Lender is willing to act as such Agent, in which case such Agent may
be any Person approved by the Required Lenders) a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the
Lenders, which successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be approved by the Borrowers’ Agent (which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default),
whereupon such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the term “Administrative Agent” or
“Collateral Agent”, as applicable, shall mean such successor Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent
effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s rights,
powers and duties as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be terminated, without any other or
further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, or any of the parties
to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans or other Obligations. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s or
Collateral Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If no successor Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days
following a retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s, as applicable, notice of resignation, the
retiring Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective
and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of such Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for
above.

10.10         Collateral
Matters. (a) The Collateral Agent is authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice
to or further consent from the Lenders, from time to time to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Loan
Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and Liens upon the Collateral
granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

 

(b)          The
Lenders, and each Qualified Counterparty and each Qualified Cash Management Bank (pursuant to the terms of the applicable Hedging
Agreement Qualification Notification and/or by accepting the grant by the Loan Parties of the security interest in the Collateral
pursuant to the Security Documents), irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release
any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments, and payment in
full of all Loans and all other Obligations known to the Collateral Agent and payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
(except indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made and of which no Responsible Person of any Loan Party has knowledge
or any obligations owed under a Commodity OTC Agreement with a Qualified Counterparty, any Financial Hedging Agreement with a Qualified
Counterparty or any Cash Management Bank Agreement with a Qualified Cash Management Bank); (ii) constituting property sold or to
be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition permitted hereunder; (iii) constituting
property in which the Loan Parties owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; (iv) constituting
property leased to any Loan Party under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement
or is about to expire and which has not been, and is not intended by the Borrowers to be, renewed or extended; (v) consisting of
an instrument evidencing Indebtedness or other debt instrument, if the indebtedness evidenced thereby has been paid in full; or
(vi) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the portion of the Lenders required by Section 11.1. Upon request
by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular
types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.10; provided that the absence of any such confirmation
for whatever reason shall not affect the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Section 10.10.

 

(c)          The
Collateral 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. The Collateral Agent shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in fact selected by it with reasonable care.

10.11         Force
Majeure. The Agents shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or
responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of the Agents (including but not limited to any act
or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, any act of God or war, civil unrest, local
or national disturbance or disaster, any act of terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or
facsimile or other wire or communication facility).

purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights and
obligations of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties party thereto hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive or consent to any
departure from, prospectively, concurrently or retrospectively, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, 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 or consent and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall:

Lender’s Commitment, in each case without the additional written consent of each Lender affected thereby, or

 

(ii)         increase
any percentage in the definition of “Borrowing Base” or otherwise amend or modify the definition of “Borrowing
Base” or any direct or indirect component definition thereof that has the effect of increasing the Borrowing Base Availability,
in each case without the written consent of the Supermajority Lenders; or

 

(iii)        amend,
modify or waive any provision of this Section 11.1 or change the percentage specified in the definition of Required

provision affecting the rights, duties or obligations of any Issuing Lenders, without the additional written consent of any Issuing
Lender directly affected thereby.

 

Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder
(and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected
with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender
may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the
consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely relative
to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 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 Agents
and all future holders of the Loans and other Obligations. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agents
shall be restored to their former positions 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.

(c)          Reliance
by Agents and Lenders. The Agents and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic
notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrowers’ Agent even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified
herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof,

(d)          Intralinks.
Each Loan Party and Lender hereby acknowledges that the Administrative Agent will make information available to the Secured Parties

to the Administrative Agent for purposes of compliance with any provision of this Agreement or for dissemination to any other party
hereto shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent in electronic form capable of being posted to the Platform. With respect
to the Platform, the parties agree and acknowledge the following:

 

(i)          Each
Loan Party understands that the distribution of materials and other communications through an electronic medium is not necessarily

with such electronic distribution, except to the extent caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the applicable
Agent, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

 

(ii) The
Platform is provided “as is” and “as available”. Neither the Administrative Agent, any other Agent nor
any of their respective Affiliates warrants the accuracy or completeness of the information contained on the Platform or the adequacy
of the Platform and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the information contained on the Platform. No
warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects is made by the Administrative Agent, any other

11.3         No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender,
any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights,
remedies, powers and privileges herein and in the other Loan Documents provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any
rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

 

11.4         Survival
of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made herein, in the other Loan Documents and in any
document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other Extensions of Credit hereunder.

 

11.5         Release
of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations. (a)  Upon any sale or other transfer of any Collateral that is
permitted under the Loan Documents by any Loan Party or a sale of all of the assets of, or all of the Capital Stock of, a
Subsidiary in a transaction that is permitted under the Loan Documents (other than a sale, transfer or other disposition to
another Loan Party), or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby
in any Collateral pursuant to Section 10.10 hereof, the security interest in such Collateral shall automatically
terminate and Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall execute and a deliver a termination or
satisfaction of any Mortgage and Security Agreement affecting such Collateral, in proper form for recording.

 

(b)          Upon
any sale or other transfer of all of the Capital Stock of any Loan Party that is permitted or consented to under the Loan Documents
(other than a sale or transfer to another Loan Party), the Guaranty of such Loan Party shall automatically be released and terminated.

 

(c)          Upon
termination of the Commitments and payment in full of the Loans and all other Obligations payable under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document (except indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made and of which no Responsible Person of any Loan
Party has knowledge) and the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit, the pledge and security interest granted pursuant
to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall automatically terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the
applicable Loan Party. Upon any such termination or pursuant to any termination or release as described in Section 11.5(a),

11.6         Payment
of Costs and Expenses. The Borrowers agree (a) to pay or reimburse each Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers for all
its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation,
negotiation, execution, delivery and administration 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 and
documented fees and disbursements of one counsel to the Agents and the Joint Lead Arrangers (including the fees and expenses
of Mayer Brown LLP), (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender, the Swing Line Lender, each Issuing Lender, each Agent and the
Joint Lead Arrangers, for all its documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation
of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, the
documented fees and disbursements of counsel to each Lender, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Swing Line Lender and each Issuing
Lender and of counsel to the Agents, (c) to pay or reimburse the Agents and the Joint Lead Arrangers for its documented
costs and expenses incurred in connection with inspections performed pursuant to Section 7.9, and any other due
diligence performed in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the reasonable and documented
fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agents (including the fees and expenses of Mayer Brown LLP), (d) to pay,
indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Swing Line Lender, the Issuing Lenders, each Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers harmless
from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in
paying, stamp, excise and other similar taxes (except to the extent the Borrowers have otherwise indemnified such Person for
such taxes under Section 4.11(b)), if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the
execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment,
supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent (including the determination of whether or not any such waiver or
consent is required) under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and
(e) on a net after-Tax basis, to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Issuing Lenders and the Agents, and each
of their respective officers, employees, directors, trustees, agents, advisors, affiliates, partners and controlling persons
(each, an “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 other than
Taxes (as to which Section 4.10 and Section 4.11 shall govern) 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 violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any
Environmental Law applicable to the operations of the Borrowers and any of its Subsidiaries, or any of the Properties,
including the fees and expenses of such Indemnitee’s counsel (all the foregoing in this clause (e), collectively,
the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that the Borrowers shall have no obligation hereunder to
any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are (x) found by a final,
non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (unless settled by final binding mediation or final
determination by another form of alternative dispute resolution chosen by the parties) to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by any Loan Party against an
Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such
Loan Party has obtained a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (unless settled by
final binding mediation or final determination by another form of alternative dispute resolution chosen by the parties) in
its favor on such claim. The agreements in this Section 11.6 shall survive repayment of the Loans, Reimbursement
Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder. This Section 11.6 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other
than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

 

11.7         Successors
and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a)  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Agents and their respective successors and assigns, except as otherwise provided in Section
8.4, that no Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior
written consent of each Lender (and any purported such assignment or transfer by such Borrower without such consent of each
Lender shall be null and void).

 

    	-107-

    	 

    

 

(b)          Any
Lender may, in accordance with applicable Law, at any time sell to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities
(individually, a “Participant” and, collectively, the “Participants”) participating interests
in any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation owing to such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (a “Participation”). 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, Reimbursement Obligation or other interest for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent 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, except with respect to Sections
4.10 and 4.11, under which the Participant has certain rights with respect thereto. In no event shall any Participant
under any such Participation have any right to approve any amendment to 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 reduce
the principal of, or the stated rate of interest on, the Loans, Reimbursement Obligation or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone
the date of the final maturity of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, in each case to the extent subject to such Participation
(and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrowers may exercise any rights granted to it in Section 4.17 with respect to the
Lender that sold a Participation to such Participant to the extent that the direction by such Participant to such Lender to not
consent to any such amendment would cause the applicable Lender to be subject to the provisions of Section 4.17). The Borrowers
agree that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due or unpaid during an Event of Default, 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 11.8(a) as fully as if it were a Lender hereunder. The
Borrowers also agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of, and bound by the obligations imposed on the Lenders
in, Sections 4.10, 4.11 and 4.14 with respect to its Participation in the Commitments and the Loans and
other extensions of credit hereunder outstanding from time to time as if it were a Lender.

 

    	-108-

    	 

    

 

(c)          Any
Lender may, in accordance with applicable Law, at any time and from time to time assign to any Lender or any Subsidiary, Affiliate
or Approved Fund thereof, or, with the consent of the Collateral Agent, and, in the case of an assignment of the Working Capital
Facility Commitment, the Issuing Lenders, and Swing Line Lender, and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, the Borrowers’ Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to any other Person (the
“Assignee”), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit F, appropriately completed (an “Assignment
and Acceptance”), executed by such Assignee, such assigning Lender (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then
a Lender or any Subsidiary, Affiliate or Approved Fund thereof, by the Collateral Agent, and in the case of an Assignment of the
Working Capital Facility Commitment, the Issuing Lenders, and Swing Line Lender, and, so long as no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing and the Borrowers’ Agent is not deemed to consent to such assignment, the Borrowers’
Agent) and attaching the Assignee’s relevant tax forms, administrative details and wiring instructions, and delivered to
the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided that (i) each such assignment to an Assignee
(other than any Lender) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof
(other than in the case of (A) an assignment of all of a Lender’s interests under this Agreement or (B) an assignment to
another Lender, a Subsidiary, an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of such assigning Lender), unless otherwise agreed by the Collateral
Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers’ Agent (such amount to
be aggregated in respect of assignments by to any Lender and the affiliates or Approved Funds thereof), (ii) in the case of an
assignment by a Lender to a Bank CLO managed by such Lender or an affiliate of such Lender, unless such assignment to such Bank
CLO has been consented to by the Collateral Agent, and in the case of an Assignment of the Working Capital Facility Commitment,
the Issuing Lenders, and the Swing Line Lender, and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Borrowers’ Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the assigning Lender shall retain the sole
right to approve any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that
the Assignment and Acceptance between such Lender and such Bank CLO may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent
of such Bank CLO, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby
pursuant to Section 11.2, and (iii) each Assignee shall comply with the provisions of Section 4.11(e) and (iv) each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations
under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitments assigned, and each Lender assigning all or a portion of its rights
and obligations must do so on a pro rata basis among the two separate 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 as set forth therein, and (y) the assigning Lender 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 or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such assigning
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding any provision of this paragraph (c) and paragraph (e) of this Section 11.7,
(x) the consent of the Borrowers’ Agent shall not be required, and, unless requested by the Assignee and/or the assigning
Lender, new Notes shall not be required to be executed and delivered by the Borrowers’ Agent, for any assignment which occurs
at any time when any of the events described in Section 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing and (y) the Borrowers’
Agent shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment that requires such consent pursuant to the terms thereof unless it shall
object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof.
Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.7
shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a Participation in such rights and obligations in accordance
with Section 11.7(b).

 

(d)          The
Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall maintain at the address of the Administrative Agent referred to in Section 11.2
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 (including all Assignees and successors) and the Commitments of, and principal amounts
of the Loans and other Obligations owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries made in the Register shall, to the extent
permitted by applicable Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrowers therein recorded
(absent manifest error), and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may (and, in the case of any Loan or other
Obligation hereunder not evidenced by a Note, shall) treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a
Loan or other Obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding
any notice to the contrary; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register,
or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans
and other extensions of credit hereunder made to the Borrowers by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any
assignment of any Loan or other Obligation hereunder, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate
entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers’
Agent or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The parties intend for the Loans
or other Obligations to be in registered form for tax purposes and this provision shall be construed in accordance with that intent.

(e)          Upon
its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee (and, in the case of an Assignee that
is not then a Lender (or any Subsidiary, Affiliate or Approved Fund thereof), by the Administrative Agent, and in the case of an
assignment of the Working Capital Facility Commitment, the Issuing Lenders, and the Swing Line Lender and, so long as no Default
or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers’ Agent), together with payment to the Administrative Agent
by the assigning Lender of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (other than in the case of an assignment to a Lender or
an Affiliate of a Lender or any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank), 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 applicable Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders
and the Borrowers’ Agent.

 

(f)          The
Borrowers authorize each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective
Transferee in each case, any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrowers, the other
Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers or
the other Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers or
other Loan Parties in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrowers, the other the Loan Parties and their
Subsidiaries or Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement; provided that such Transferee or prospective Transferee
shall have agreed to be bound by the provisions of Section 11.16 hereof.

 

(g)          For
avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 11.7 concerning assignments
of Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not
prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, (i) any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any
Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable Law and (ii) any pledge or assignment by a Lender which
is a fund to its trustee for the benefit of such trustee and/or its investors to secure its obligations under any indenture or
Governing Documents to which it is a party; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release
a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

 

11.8         Adjustments;
Set-off. (a) If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or
part of its Loans or Reimbursement Obligations with regards to either Facility, or interest thereon, 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 9.1(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or
collateral received by any other Lender under such Facility, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans or
Reimbursement Obligations under such Facility, or interest thereon, except to the extent specifically provided hereunder,
such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders under such Facility a participating interest in such
portion of each such other Lender’s Loans or Reimbursement Obligations under such Facility, or shall provide such other
Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited
Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders under such
Facility; except that with respect to any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender by virtue of such Lender failing to fund its
Commitment Percentage of any Loan or Participation Obligation, such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata share of the
excess payment shall be allocated to the Lender (or the Lenders, pro rata) that funded such Defaulting
Lender’s Commitment Percentage thereof; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess
payment or benefits 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; provided further, that to
the extent prohibited by applicable law as described in the definition of “Excluded Swap Obligation,” no amounts
received from, or set off with respect to, any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor.
Each Borrower agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Loans or Reimbursement Obligations
may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully
as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

 

    	-110-

    	 

    

 

(b)          In
addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the
Borrowers, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable Law, during the existence
of an Event of Default, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrowers 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 Borrowers. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the Borrowers’
Agent and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure
to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off or application.

 

11.9         Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts
(including by facsimile transmission or electronic mail transmission in portable document format of signature pages hereto),
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 by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail in portable document format 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 Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent.

 

11.10         Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement which 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.

 

11.11         Integration.
This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties relative to subject matter hereof not

(c)          agrees
that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail

(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

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.

 

11.14         Acknowledgements.

(c)          no
joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby

officers, employees, representatives, agents or auditors (collectively, “Representatives”) to keep
confidential) all information that such Lender Party receives from or on behalf of the Loan Parties other than information
that is identified by any of the Loan Parties as being non-confidential information (all such information that is not so

shall prevent any Lender Party from (A) disclosing, subject to the terms and requirements of this Section 11.16,
such information to a Subsidiary or an Affiliate or its Representatives, (B) disclosing Confidential Information in

    	-112-

    	 

    

 

(b)          Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 11.16 to the contrary, any Confidential Information may be disclosed by any Lender Party (the
affected Lender Party being the “Disclosing Party”) if the Disclosing Party is compelled by judicial process
or is required by Law or regulation or is requested to do so by any examiner or any other regulatory authority or recognized self-regulatory
organization including, without limitation, the New York Stock Exchange, the Federal Reserve Board, the New York State Banking
Department and the Securities & Exchange Commission, in each case having or asserting jurisdiction over the Disclosing Party.

 

(c)          The
obligations of each Lender Party and its Representatives under this Section 11.16 with respect to Confidential Information
shall not apply to (i) any Confidential Information which, as of the date of disclosure by such Lender Party or its Representatives,
is in the public domain or subsequently comes into the public domain other than as a result of a breach of the obligations of such
Lender Party or its Representatives hereunder, or (ii) any Confidential Information that was or becomes available to such Lender
Party or its Representatives from a person or source that is or was not, to the knowledge of such Lender Party or its Representatives,

(d)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, any Lender Party may disclose Confidential Information to those Representatives of its Trading
Business, solely to the extent (i) such disclosure is (A) advisable, in the good faith discretion of such Lender Party, to assist
such Lender Party in protecting and enforcing its rights under any Loan Document and other credit facilities which such Lender
Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates has with the applicable Loan Party (or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) and
(B) relevant to such assistance, (ii) such Representatives have been advised of, and agree to, the confidential nature, and restrictions
on use, of such Confidential Information and need to know same in connection with providing such assistance, and (iii) such Confidential
Information is not used for any purpose other than that set forth in this Section 11.16.

 

11.17         Specified
Laws. Each Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby
notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Specified Laws, it is required to obtain, verify and record
information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the names and addresses of the Borrowers and other
information that will allow such Lender, the Administrative Agent, or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to identify the
Borrowers in accordance with the Specified Laws.

 

11.18         Additional
Borrowers. At any time and from time-to-time after the Closing Date, the Borrowers’ Agent may request that any of
its Subsidiaries become a borrower under this Agreement (each Subsidiary which becomes a borrower pursuant to the terms of
this Section 11.18, an “Additional Borrower”). Such Subsidiary shall become an Additional
Borrower with effect on and from the date on which the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers’ Agent that each of
the following has been satisfied (which date shall be within ten (10) Business Days after each Lender has received the
documents referred to in Section 11.18(d):

 

(a)          the
Administrative Agent receives a duly completed and executed Joinder Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit P;

 

    	-113-

    	 

    

 

(b)          the
Borrowers’ Agent confirms that no Default or Event of Default is continuing or would occur as a result of that Subsidiary
becoming an Additional Borrower and each of the representations and warranties relating to the Additional Borrower and the Loan
Parties is true and not misleading in any material respect (except that any representation and warranty that is qualified by “materiality”
or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be true and correct in all respects as so qualified) as if made on date of
accession of Additional Borrower;

 

(c)          the
Subsidiary is incorporated, organized or formed in the United States of America or another jurisdiction approved by the Required
Lenders;

 

(d)          the
Collateral Agent shall have received the results of a recent search by a Person reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent,
of the Uniform Commercial Code (if relevant), judgment and tax Lien filings, and all customary searches for financing transactions
of this nature in all applicable jurisdictions, which may have been filed with respect to personal property of such Additional
Borrower, and the results of such search shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent;

 

(e)          each
Lender shall have received all of the documents referred to in Section 6.1(p) with respect to that Additional Borrower
and has confirmed to the Collateral Agent that such documents are in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Lender;

 

(f)          such
Additional Borrower becomes a Grantor; and

 

(g)          Additional
Borrower appoints the Borrowers’ Agent to act on its behalf as the agent for such Additional Borrower hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Borrowers’ Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers
as are delegated to the Borrowers’ Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto, and the Borrowers’ Agent accepts such appointment (which appointment shall not be terminated or revoked
without the consent of the Collateral Agent and the Required Lenders).

11.19         Joint
and Several Liability. Upon entry into this Agreement by an Additional Borrower, all Loans, upon funding, shall be deemed
to be jointly funded to and received by the Borrower Parties. Each Borrower Party jointly and severally agrees to pay, and
shall be jointly and severally liable under this Agreement for, all Obligations, regardless of the manner or amount in which
proceeds of Loans are used, allocated, shared, or disbursed by or among the Borrower Parties themselves, or the manner in
which an Agent and/or any Lender accounts for such Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records. Each
Borrower Party shall be liable for all amounts due to an Agent and/or any Lender under this Agreement, regardless of which
Borrower Party actually receives Loans or other Extensions of Credit hereunder or the amount of such Loans and Extensions of
Credit received or the manner in which such Agent and/or such Lender accounts for such Loans or other Extensions of Credit on
its books and records. Each Borrower Party’s Obligations with respect to Loans and other Extensions of Credit made to
it, and such Borrower Party’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower Party
hereunder, with respect to Loans and other Extensions of Credit made to the other Borrower Parties hereunder, shall be
separate and distinct obligations, but all such Obligations shall be primary obligations of such Borrower Party. The Borrower
Parties acknowledge and expressly agree with the Agents and each Lender that the joint and several liability of each Borrower
Party is required solely as a condition to, and is given solely as inducement for and in consideration of, credit or
accommodations extended or to be extended under the Loan Documents to any or all of the other Borrower Parties and is not
required or given as a condition of Extensions of Credit to such Borrower Party. Each Borrower Party’s obligations
under this Agreement shall be separate and distinct obligations. Each Borrower Party’s obligations under this Agreement
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, be unconditional irrespective of (i) the validity or
enforceability, avoidance, or subordination of the Obligations of any other Borrower Party or of any Note or other document
evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of any other Borrower Party, (ii) the absence of any attempt to collect the
Obligations from any other Borrower Party, any Guarantor, or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action
to enforce the same, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance, or granting of any indulgence by an Agent and/or any
Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations of any other Borrower Party or any
Guarantor, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by any other Borrower Party or any Guarantor
and delivered to an Agent and/or any Lender, (iv) the failure by an Agent and/or any Lender to take any steps to perfect and
maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations of any other
Borrower Party or any Guarantor, (v) an Agent’s and/or any Lender’s election, in any proceeding instituted under
the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (vi) any borrowing or grant of a
security interest by any other Borrower Party, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (vii)
the disallowance of all or any portion of an Agent’s and/or any Lender’s claim(s) for the repayment of the
Obligations of any other Borrower Party under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (viii) any other circumstances
which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or of any other Borrower Party. With respect
to any Borrower Party’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrower Parties
hereunder with respect to Loans or other Extensions of Credit made to any of the other Borrower Parties hereunder,
such Borrower Party waives, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement shall have been terminated,
any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which an Agent and/or any Lender now has or may hereafter have
against any other Borrower Party, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of,
and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to an Agent and/or any Lender to secure payment of the
Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower Party to an Agent and/or any Lender. Upon any Event of Default, the Agents
may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower Party to collect and recover the full amount, or any
portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower Party or any other Person, or against any
security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower Party consents and agrees that the Agents shall be under no
obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower Party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.
Each Borrower Party further acknowledges that credit extended to each Borrower Party hereunder will directly or indirectly
benefit each other Borrower Party.

 

11.20         Contribution
and Indemnification among the Borrowers. Each Borrower Party is obligated to repay the Obligations as joint and several
obligor under this Agreement. To the extent that any Borrower Party shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several
obligor, repay any of the Obligations constituting Loans made to another Borrower Party hereunder or other Obligations
incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower Party (an “Accommodation Payment”), then the
Borrower Party making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be
reimbursed by, each of the other Borrower Parties in an amount, for each of such other Borrower Parties, equal to a fraction
of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower Party’s Allocable Amount (as
defined below) and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrower Parties. As of any
date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Borrower Party shall be equal to the maximum amount of
liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower Party hereunder without (a) rendering such
Borrower Party “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2
of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance
Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Borrower Party with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the
meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c)
leaving such Borrower Party unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the
Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All rights and claims of
contribution, indemnification, and reimbursement under this Section 11.20 shall be subordinate in right of payment to
the prior payment in full of the Obligations. The provisions of this Section 11.20 shall, to the extent expressly
inconsistent with any provision in any Loan Document, supersede such inconsistent provision.

11.21         Express
Waivers by Borrower Parties in Respect of Cross Guaranties and Cross Collateralization. Each Borrower Party agrees as
follows:

 

(a)          Each
Borrower Party hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of this Agreement; (ii) notice of the making of any Loans, the issuance
of any Letter of Credit or any other financial accommodations made or extended under the Loan Documents or the creation or existence
of any Obligations; (iii) notice of the amount of the Obligations, subject, however, to such Borrower Party’s right to make
inquiry of the Administrative Agent to ascertain the amount of the Obligations at any reasonable time; (iv) notice of any adverse
change in the financial condition of any other Borrower Party or of any other fact that might increase such Borrower Party’s
risk with respect to such other Borrower Party under the Loan Documents; (v) notice of presentment for payment, demand, protest,
and notice thereof as to any promissory notes or other instruments among the Loan Documents; and (vi) all other notices (except
if such notice is specifically required to be given to such Borrower Party hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents to
which such Borrower Party is a party) and demands to which such Borrower Party might otherwise be entitled;

 

(b)          Each
Borrower Party hereby waives the right by statute or otherwise to require an Agent or any other Secured Party to institute suit
against any other Borrower Party or to exhaust any rights and remedies which an Agent or any other Secured Party has or may have
against any other Borrower Party. Each Borrower Party further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense
of any other Borrower Party (other than the defense that the Obligations shall have been fully and finally performed and paid)
or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any such Borrower Party in respect thereof;

 

(c)          Each
Borrower Party hereby waives and agrees not to assert against an Agent or any Lender: (i) any defense (legal or equitable), set-off,
counterclaim, or claim which such Borrower Party may now or at any time hereafter have against any other Borrower Party or any
other party liable under the Loan Documents; (ii) any defense, set-off, counterclaim, or claim of any kind or nature available
to any other Borrower Party against an Agent or any Lender, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection,
sufficiency, validity, or enforceability of the Obligations or any security therefor; (iii) any right or defense arising by reason
of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by an Agent or any Lender under any applicable law; and (iv) the benefit
of any statute of limitations affecting any other Borrower Party’s liability hereunder;

 

(d)          Each
Borrower Party consents and agrees that, without notice to or by such Borrower Party and without affecting or impairing the obligations
of such Borrower Party hereunder, the Agents may (subject to any requirement for consent of any of the Lenders to the extent required
by this Agreement), by action or inaction: (i) compromise, settle, extend the duration or the time for the payment of, or discharge
the performance of, or may refuse to or otherwise not enforce the Loan Documents; (ii) release all or any one or more parties to
any one or more of the Loan Documents or grant other indulgences to any other Borrower Party in respect thereof; (iii) amend or
modify in any manner and at any time (or from time to time) any of the Loan Documents; or (iv) release or substitute any Person
liable for payment of the Obligations, or enforce, exchange, release, or waive any security for the Obligations or any Guaranty
of the Obligations.

 

(e)          Each
Borrower Party represents and warrants to the Agents and the Lenders that, as of the date of entry of any Additional Borrower into
this Agreement, such Borrower Party is currently informed of the financial condition of all other Borrower Parties and all other
circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Borrower
Party further represents and warrants that, as of the date of entry of such Borrower Party into this Agreement, such Borrower Party
has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Each Borrower Party agrees that none of the Agents or
any Lender has any responsibility to inform any Borrower Party of the financial condition of any other Borrower Party or of any
other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.

11.22         Limitation
on Obligations of Borrower Parties. In the event that in any action or proceeding involving any state or foreign corporate
law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Law affecting the rights of creditors generally,
the obligations of any Borrower, including for the obligations of any other Borrower Party, under this Agreement shall be held
or determined to be void, avoidable, invalid or unenforceable (including because of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code
or any applicable state or federal Law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then, notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement to the contrary, the amount of such liability of a Borrower Party shall, without any further action by any Loan
Party, Agent or Lender, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable (such highest
amount determined hereunder being the relevant Borrower’s “Maximum Liability”); provided that nothing
contained in this Section 11.22 shall limit the liability of any Borrower Party to repay Loans made directly or indirectly
to or for the benefit of that Borrower Party or any Subsidiary of that Borrower Party (including Loans advanced to any other Borrower
Party and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower Party or any of its Subsidiaries),
Obligations relating to Letters of Credit issued for the direct or indirect benefit of such Borrower Party or any of its Subsidiaries,
and all interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations under the Loan Documents with respect thereto, for which such Borrower
Party shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder. This Section 11.22 with respect to the Maximum Liability of
each Borrower Party is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Agents and the Lenders to the maximum extent not subject
to avoidance under applicable Law, and no Loan Party nor any other person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section
11.22 with respect to such Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Borrower Party
hereunder shall not be rendered void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable under applicable Law.

Exhibit 10.1

 

 

AMENDED AND RESTATED

CHANGE IN CONTROL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

 

This Agreement is made and entered into as of _______________, 2013  (the "Effective Date") between Stock Yards Bank & Trust Company, a Kentucky banking corporation with its principal office located at 1040 East Main Street, Louisville, Kentucky 40206 (the "Bank") and ___________ ("Executive").

 

Recitals

 

	
A.

	
The Bank is a wholly owned subsidiary of S.Y. Bancorp, Inc., a Kentucky corporation and bank holding company ("SY Bancorp").

 

	
B.

	
SY Bancorp, as the sole shareholder of the Bank, considers the establishment and maintenance of a sound and vital management team to be essential to protecting and enhancing the best interests of the Bank, SY Bancorp, and SY Bancorp's shareholders.

 

	
C.

	
SY Bancorp and the Bank recognize that, as is the case with many publicly held bank holding companies, the possibility exists that an unsolicited tender offer or takeover bid and a consequent change in control of SY Bancorp may occur, and thus, that as a practical matter, a change in control of the Bank may occur, and that such a possibility is unsettling and distracting to key executives of the Bank.

 

	
D.

	
SY Bancorp and the Bank have concluded that it is in the best interests of SY Bancorp, its shareholders and the Bank to take reasonable steps to help assure certain key executives of the Bank that, notwithstanding an unsolicited tender offer or takeover bid, or an actual change in control, they will be treated fairly and with concern for their welfare.

 

	
E.

	
SY Bancorp and the Bank have also concluded that it is important that, should SY Bancorp receive takeover or acquisition proposals from third parties, that it be able to call upon the key executives of the Bank for their candid assessment and advice concerning whether such proposals are in the best interests of SY Bancorp, its shareholders and the Bank, free of the influences caused by the uncertainties and risks of their own personal employment situations.

 

	
F.

	
For the foregoing reasons the Board of Directors of SY Bancorp and of the Bank have approved the Bank's entering into change in control severance agreements with key executives of the Bank.

 

	
G.

	
Executive has been selected by the Bank's Board of Directors as a key executive and Executive and the Bank entered into a similar agreement 2010 (the "Prior Agreement"), which this Agreement amends and restates in its entirety.

Agreements

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the Bank and Executive agree as follows:

 

1.           TERM OF AGREEMENT.  This Agreement (other than Section 6 hereof, which shall apply beginning at the Effective Date) shall apply only to termination of employment of the Executive during a period commencing 6 months before a Change in Control Announcement, and terminating on the 1st anniversary of that date if no Change in Control has then occurred, or, if a Change in Control has occurred, then on the 2nd anniversary of the Change in Control (the "Change in Control Window") unless it is earlier terminated in accordance with the next sentence (the "Term").   The Bank may amend or terminate this Agreement upon 12 months written notice to the Executive, but if a Change in Control or Change in Control Announcement occurs within the 12 month period after the Bank has given notice of termination or modification of this Agreement, the Agreement (without regard to such modifications, except to the extent that Executive consented thereto as evidenced by Executive's signature on an amended or restated Agreement) shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect for the entire Change in Control Window.

 

2.           SEVERANCE PAYMENT IN VARIOUS EVENTS

 

2.1           Termination by Bank Before Change in Control or for Cause.  The Bank may terminate Executive's employment and this Agreement (subject to survival of the covenants in Section 6) at any time prior to a Change in Control Window for any or no reason, and may terminate Executive' employment for Cause, even during a Change in Control Window.  If Executive's employment is terminated for Cause or prior to a Change in Control Window, Executive shall not be entitled to any payments or benefits except for (1) unpaid salary already earned by Executive and (2) benefits in which he has already become vested by such termination of employment, and which are payable upon such termination of employment under the terms and practices of the plans or arrangements under which such benefits are provided.

 

2.2           Resignation; Death; Disability Terminations.  Executive may terminate Executive's employment and this Agreement (subject to survival of the covenants in Section 6) at any time, including during a Change in Control Window.  If Executive's employment hereunder terminates because of Executive's resignation as an employee of Bank (other than as described in Section 2.3), his death, or his Permanent Disability, then Executive shall not be entitled to any payments or benefits hereunder except for (1) unpaid salary already earned by Executive and (2) benefits in which he has already become vested before such termination of employment, and which are payable upon such termination of employment under the terms and practices of the plans or arrangements under which such benefits are provided.  In the case of death, any such amounts shall be paid to Executive's estate (or, where applicable or the context requires, the surviving members of Executive's family or Executive's beneficiaries).

 

2.3           Constructive (Good Reason) Termination.  For all purposes of this Agreement, Executive's resignation from Executive's employment with Bank shall be deemed not to constitute a resignation, and instead to be treated as a termination of Executive's employment by Bank other than for Cause, if such resignation occurs upon written notice from Executive setting forth the (i) specific subsection of the Good Reason definition on which the resignation is based, and (ii) related facts in support of that reason, and (iii) the date of the Termination of Employment, which shall not be less than 14 days nor more than 60 days after the giving of such notice. 

 

  

2

  

 

2.4           Bank Termination After Change in Control Window Begins.  If a Change in Control is consummated during the Term and (i) if Termination of Employment of Executive by the Bank is other than for Cause (or deemed so terminated due to constructive termination in accordance with Section 2.3) during the Change in Control Window, and (ii) if, and only if, Executive signs a written release of the Bank and all of its then-current and former directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents, members, and affiliated companies from any and all claims, in such form as is determined by Bank, which release is not revoked if allowed by its terms, then Bank shall make a Severance Payment as provided in Sections 2.5-2.8 below.

 

2.5           Amount of Severance Payment.  The Severance Payment shall equal three times the sum of (i) Executive's highest monthly base salary as in effect at any time in the 6 month period immediately prior to Termination, plus (ii) Executive's Historical Bonus, subject to the maximum payment provisions of Section 2.7 below.  In addition to the cash payment, the Bank shall provide all pay and benefits to which Executive has already become vested before Termination of Employment, and which are payable upon such Termination of Employment under the terms and practices of the plans or arrangements under which such benefits are provided.  Such Severance Payment shall be in lieu of any other severance payment provided for by the Bank in accordance with its standard of practice and operations at the time of payment of this Severance Payment.

 

2.6           Payment Timing.  The Severance Payment shall be made in a lump sum cash payment 60 days after the later of (i) Executive's Termination of Employment or, (ii) in the case of a Termination which occurred prior to the consummation of the Change in Control, the date of the Change in Control of Bank.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the case of an Executive who is a "specified employee" at the time a payment or reimbursement hereunder on account of Termination of Employment, within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(i) (or any successor thereto) using the prior calendar year as the determination period,  which payment or reimbursement is not exempt from Section 409A of the Code, the portion of the payment that constitutes "deferred compensation" (within the meaning of Code Section 409A) shall be made at the later of the date provided in the preceding sentence and six months after the Executive's Termination of Employment.  If the Bank concludes that some or all of a Severance Payment to Executive must be delayed pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Bank shall nonetheless certify to Executive in writing, within the 60 day period for payment described in the first sentence of this Section, the amount (and calculations in support) of the Severance Payment so due and the date it will be paid hereunder.

 

2.7           Reduction of Amounts Payable.  If the amount payable hereunder,  either alone or together with any other payments or benefits received or to be received by Executive in connection with a Change in Control (collectively, the "Aggregate Payments"), would cause Bank to forfeit, pursuant to Section 280G(a) of the Code, its deduction for any or all of the amounts payable hereunder, and subject the Executive to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code (or any successor thereto), the following provisions shall apply:

 

  

3

  

 

(i)           If the net amount that would be retained by Executive after all taxes on the Aggregate Payments are paid would be greater than the net amount that would be retained by Executive after all taxes are paid if the Aggregate Payments were limited to the largest amount that would result in no portion of the Aggregate Payments being subject to such excise tax, Executive shall be entitled to receive the Aggregate Payments.

 

(ii)           If, however, the net amount that would be retained by Executive after all taxes were paid would be greater if the Aggregate Payments were limited to the largest amount that would result in no portion of the Aggregate Payments being subject to such excise tax (generally, pursuant to Code Section 280G, 2.99 times the Executive's "base amount" as defined in that Code section and regulations hereunder), the Aggregate Payments to which Executive is entitled shall be reduced to such largest amount.

 

Executive shall have a right to select an independent certified public accountant, benefits consultant or similar expert to audit the Bank's calculation of the Section 280G deductible amount, and the Severance Payment hereunder, at the Bank's expense.  If such audit reveals that the calculations performed by the Bank were in error or have resulted in the payment to Executive of an amount less than that to which he is entitled hereunder, the Bank shall immediately rectify such underpayment.

 

2.8           Tax Withholding.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement that may be read to the contrary, Bank shall have the right (without notice to Executive) to withhold from any amounts otherwise payable to or accrued by Executive under this Agreement, a sum which Bank determines is sufficient to satisfy all federal, state, and local withholding tax requirements that may apply with respect to such amounts.  In addition, any reference to a cash payment under this Agreement shall be deemed to include a payment by check or a credit to a bank account of Executive.

 

2.9           Health Plan Access.  So long as legally possible (even if to do so requires plan amendment), the Executive shall be entitled to continue his participation in the Bank's medical plans for active employees for a period of 36 months following any severance for which a Severance Payment is due hereunder, with the cost for such access and coverage paid by Executive on an after-tax basis at the rate payable by any former employee under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 2005 (COBRA), and his rights to continue coverage under and for the period provided under COBRA to begin after the end of this contractual continuation period.

 

3.           BANK REGULATORY PROVISION.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the parties agree this Agreement shall be terminated or not observed, if and to the extent it violates bank regulatory rules involving the subject matter hereof, including but not limited to the following:

 

(a)           If Executive is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Bank's affairs by a notice served under section 8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1818(e)(3) and (g)(1)) of similar succeeding law or authority, the Bank's obligations under the Agreement shall be suspended as of the date of service unless stayed by appropriate proceedings.  If the charges in the notice are dismissed, the Bank may, in its discretion, (i) pay Executive all or part of the compensation withheld while its contract obligations were suspended or (ii) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations which were suspended.

 

  

4

  

 

(b)           If Executive is removed and/or permanently prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Bank's affairs by an order issued under 8(e)(4) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1818(e)(4) and (g)(1)) or similar succeeding law or authority, all obligations of the Bank under the Agreement shall terminate as of the effective date of the order, but vested rights of the contracting parties shall not be affected.

 

(c)           If the Bank is in default (as defined in section 3(x)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act or succeeding law or authority), all obligations under the Agreement shall terminate as of the date of default, but this Section 3(c) shall not affect any vested rights of the contracting parties.

 

(d)           All obligations under the Agreement shall be terminated, except to the extent determined that continuation of the contract is necessary for the continued operation of the Bank, by the Chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or his or her designee, or by the action or direction of the Board of Directors of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"):

 

 (i)           at the time the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation enters into an agreement to provide assistance to or on behalf of the Bank under the authority contained in section 13(c) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act; or

 

(ii)           at the time the FDIC approves a supervisory merger to resolve problems related to operation of the Bank or when the Bank is determined by the FDIC to be in an unsafe or unsound condition.

 

4.           FEES COSTS AND DISPUTES.  The Bank agrees to pay or reimburse all reasonable legal fees, costs, and expenses arising out of or in any way related to or incurred by Executive in connection with enforcing any right or benefit provided in this Agreement, or in interpreting this Agreement or calculating the amounts required to be paid to Executive under this Agreement, or in contesting or disputing any termination of Executive's employment hereunder purportedly for Cause or other action taken by the Bank hereunder.  Such amounts shall be paid promptly after demand is made by Executive and Executive's provision to the Bank of reasonably satisfactory evidence of such fees and expenses, but shall in no event be paid or payable on or after the last day of Executive's taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. If the Executive is a specified employee and such payment is "deferred compensation" both as provided in Section 2.6 hereof, such payments shall not be made before the date that is six months after the date of the Executive's Termination of Employment. Executive shall also remain covered, to the full extent applicable to other former officers or directors of the Bank or SY Bancorp, under any indemnity for acts in such capacity under the Bank's or SY Bancorp's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, and such rights shall not be waived in the release required by Section 2.4. The Executive shall have the right and option to elect (in lieu of litigation) to have any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement settled by arbitration, conducted before a panel of three arbitrators sitting in a location selected by the Executive within 50 miles from the location of Executive's job with the Bank, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. The Executive's election to arbitrate, as herein provided, and the decision of the arbitrators in that proceeding, shall be binding on the Bank and Executive.

 

  

5

  

 

5.           MITIGATION.  Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in its Agreement, whether by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment provided for herein be reduced by any compensation earned or received by Executive as a result of his employment by another employer following his termination hereunder.

 

6.           COVENANTS.  Notwithstanding the terms and provisions of any other agreement by and between the Bank and Executive, even if it provides for negation of covenants from Executive to the Bank in the event of a Change in Control, in exchange for this Agreement, the Executive agrees to adhere to the following covenants during his employment and after its Termination for any reason.

 

6.1           Not To Compete.  For a period of 18 months following the receipt of the Severance Payment as contemplated herein, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, either for Executive or for any other person, entity or company, solicit business or individual patronage for the purpose of providing services which are identical or similar to services then provided by the Bank within a radius of 50 miles from any of the Bank's offices.

6.2           Non-Solicitation of Customers or Employees.  Executive agrees that, during the 18-month period following any Termination of Executive's employment (whether such termination is covered by this Agreement or otherwise), Executive shall not, without the express written consent of Bank, directly or indirectly, either for Executive or for any other person, entity or company, (i) solicit the business enjoyed by the Bank with any person or business that was a Customer; or  (ii) approach or solicit any person who was employed at the Bank as of the date of Executive's termination and with whom the Executive had material contact during the Executive's employment with the Bank, with a view to hiring such employee, persuading such employee to leave the employment of Bank, or actually hire an employee of the Bank for any other entity.

 

6.3           Cooperation With Litigation.  Executive agrees to cooperate with Bank, during the term of this Agreement and thereafter (including after Executive's Termination of Employment hereunder for any reason), by making Executive reasonably available to testify on behalf of Bank or any affiliated company in any action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, and to assist Bank or any affiliated company in any such action, suit, or proceeding by providing information to and meeting and consulting with Bank, any affiliated company, or any of their counsel or representatives upon reasonable request, provided that such cooperation and assistance shall not materially interfere with Executive's then current professional activities and that Bank shall agree to reimburse Executive for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Executive in connection with providing such cooperation and assistance.

 

  

6

  

 

6.4           Bank's Confidential Information.  Executive agrees that, during the term of this Agreement and at any time thereafter, he shall not directly or indirectly, without the express written consent of Bank, disclose, divulge, discuss, copy, or otherwise use or suffer to be used in any manner, in competition with or contrary to the interests of Bank or any affiliated companies, the customer lists, proprietary organizational methods, products, business plans or strategies, or other trade secrets of Bank or any affiliated companies, it being acknowledged by Executive that all such information regarding the business of Bank and affiliated companies compiled or obtained by, or furnished to, Executive while Executive shall have been employed by or associated with Bank is confidential information and Bank's exclusive property. Confidential information shall not include any information (A) which becomes publicly known through no fault or act of the Executive; (B) is lawfully received by the Executive from a third party after a Termination of Employment without a similar restriction regarding confidentiality and use and without a breach of this Agreement or (C) which is independently developed by the Executive and entirely unrelated to the business of providing banking or banking related services.

 

6.5           Advice to Future Employers.  If Executive, in the future, seeks or is offered employment by any other company, firm, or person, he shall provide a copy of this Section 6 to the prospective employer prior to accepting employment with that prospective employer.

 

6.6           Remedies. In the event of a breach or a threatened breach by Executive of any provision of Section 6 of this Agreement, the Bank shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Executive from the commission of such breach, and to recover its attorneys' fees, costs and expenses related to the breach or threatened breach.  Nothing herein contained shall be construed as prohibiting the Bank from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of money damages.  These covenants and disclosures shall each be construed as independent of any other provisions in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by Executive against the Bank, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Bank of such covenants and agreements.

 

6.7           Reasonableness of Restrictions.  Executive has carefully considered the nature and extent of the restrictions upon him and the rights and remedies conferred upon Bank under the provisions of this Section 6, and hereby acknowledges and agrees that the same are reasonable in time and territory, are designed to prevent disruption of relationships which are valuable to Bank, do not stifle the inherent skill and experience of Executive, would not operate as a bar to Executive's sole means of support, are fully required to protect the legitimate interests of Bank, and do not confer a benefit upon Bank disproportionate to the detriment to Executive which is caused by the provisions of this Section 6.

 

6.8           Severable Provisions.  The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and, if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement and any partially unenforceable provision of this Agreement, to the extent enforceable in any jurisdiction, shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable hereunder.  If any provision of this Agreement, including any provision of Section 6, is invalid in part or in whole, it will be deemed to have been amended, whether as to time, area covered or otherwise, as and to the extent required for its validity under applicable law and, as so amended, will be enforceable.

 

  

7

  

 

7.           NOTICES.  Any notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for by this Agreement shall be sufficient if in writing and if sent by registered or certified mail to Executive at the last address he has filed in writing with the Bank or, in the case of the Bank, at its principal executive offices.

 

8.           GOVERNING LAW.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

 

9.           AMENDMENT; SUPERSEDES PRIOR AGREEMENT.  This Agreement supersedes and replaces in its entirety the Prior Agreement, which shall hereafter be void and of no force and effect.  This Agreement may be amended or cancelled by the Bank as provided in Section 1 hereof, or by mutual agreement of the parties in writing without the consent of any other person.

 

10.          SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Bank and its successors and assigns; including but not limited to any successor to the Bank, direct or indirect, resulting from purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise.  This Agreement shall also be binding upon Executive and shall inure to the benefit of Executive, his personal or legal representatives, successors, heirs and assigns. No interest of the Executive, or any right to receive any payment or distribution hereunder, will be subject in an manner to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment, garnishment or other alienation or encumbrance of any kind, nor may such interest or right to receive a payment or distribution be taken, voluntarily or involuntarily, for the satisfaction of the obligation or debts of, or other claims against, the Executive, including claims for alimony, support, separate maintenance, and claims in bankruptcy proceedings.  All rights under this Agreement of the Executive will at all times be entirely unfunded, and no provision will at any time be made with respect to segregating any assets of the Bank or any affiliate for payment of any amounts due hereunder. The Executive will have only the rights of general unsecured creditor of the Bank.

11.7           "Good Reason" means a resignation at Executive's initiative (but not a Termination for Cause, or due to death or Disability) following a Change in Control and the occurrence of any of the following triggering events, provided (A) such resignation occurs within 90 days after a triggering event and within the Change in Control Window, and (B) Executive first notifies the Board (via its chairman) in writing that he considers Good Reason to have occurred and gives the Bank at least 30 days to reverse or rectify the change:

 

(i)           without his express written consent, Executive's responsibilities or authority are materially diminished from those in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control Window, including but not limited to a requirement that Executive report to a lower level officer than previously required (or, if not previously reporting to any officer, to an officer or to a non-public company board, rather than directly to the board of a publicly-traded company);

 

(ii)          without his express written consent, Executive is removed or not reelected to any office or board position at either the SY Bancorp or the Bank which he held immediately prior to the Change in Control Window, without simultaneous election to a board position at a similar level in a post-Change in Control affiliated group;

 

(ii)          a reduction by the Bank in Executive's base salary as in effect prior to the beginning of a Change in Control Window, other than via a salary reduction for Bank personnel generally of not more than 10%;

(iv)         the failure by the Bank to continue in effect (or ceasing Executive's participation in or reducing Executive's benefits from) any material fringe benefit, deferred benefit or compensation plan, pension plan, profit sharing plan, life insurance plan, major medical or hospitalization plan or disability plan or paid time off or vacation program in which Executive is participating when the Change in Control Window begins, without substituting plans providing the Executive with substantially similar or greater benefits in the aggregate.

 

11.8           "Historical Bonus" means the highest annual cash bonus paid to the Executive in the year in which the Termination of Employment occurs or the two immediately preceding calendar years, including cash bonuses that are deferred pursuant to any deferral election by Executive under a tax-qualified or non-qualified retirement or deferral plan maintained by the Bank.

11.10           "Termination of Employment" or "Termination" means the date the Bank reasonably anticipates that (i) Executive will not perform any further services for the Bank, SY Bancorp, or any other entity considered a single employer with the Bank under Section 414(b) or (c) of the Code (inserting 50% threshold for ownership in each place where 80% now appears therein) (the "Employer Group"), or (ii) the level of bona fide services Executive will perform for the Employer Group after that date will permanently decrease to less than 20% of the average level of bona fide services performed over the previous 36 months (or if shorter, over the duration of service).   For this purpose, service performed as an employee or as an independent contractor is counted, except that service as a member of the Board of an Employer Group entity is not counted unless benefits under this Agreement are aggregated with benefits under any other Employer Group plan or agreement in which Executive also participates as a director.  An Executive will not be treated as having a Termination of Employment while on military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence if the leave does not exceed six months or, if longer, the period during which Executive has a reemployment right under statute or contract.  If a bona fide leave of absence extends beyond six months, Executive will be considered to have a Termination of Employment on the first day after the end of such six month period, or on the day after Executive's statutory or contractual reemployment right lapses, if later.  The Company will determine when Executive's Termination of Employment occurs based on all relevant facts and circumstances, in accordance with the definition of separation from service in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h).

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Bank and Executive have entered into this Agreement as of the Effective Date, but actually on the dates set forth below.
