been delivered pursuant to Section 9.6(a)(i) with respect to any fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, in each case, only to the extent that each of the Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Conditions (provided such
Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Conditions shall only be applicable if the Revolving Obligations are outstanding) has been satisfied in the determination of the Revolving Agent, the Borrowers shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate principal amount of
the Term Loan equal to (i) 50% of Excess Cash Flow minus (ii) the sum of all payments of principal of the Term Loan during such fiscal year, if any, covered by such financial statements. In the event that the Borrowers satisfy all
of the Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Conditions other than attaining the Excess Availability thresholds, then Borrowers may make and Lenders may accept an Excess Cash Flow Prepayment in an amount not to exceed (i) thirty-five (35%) percent
of Excess Cash Flow for any such fiscal year minus (ii) the sum of all payments of principal of the Term Loan during the fiscal year so long as (1) after giving effect to such Excess Cash Flow Prepayment, the average Excess
Availability for the consecutive thirty (30) calendar day period ending on the day prior to such payment shall be equal to or greater than $25,000,000, (2) on the date of such Excess Cash Flow Prepayment and after giving effect thereto,
Excess Availability shall be equal to or greater than $25,000,000 and (3) Agent shall have received a Pro Forma Compliance Certificate demonstrating that, upon giving effect on a Pro Forma Basis to such Excess Cash Flow Prepayment, Excess
Availability shall be equal to or greater than $25,000,000 for each of the first thirty (30) days after giving effect to such payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that any Excess Cash Flow Prepayment in respect
of a fiscal year is not permitted to be made due to the failure of the Borrowers to satisfy any of the Excess Availability thresholds set forth in the Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Conditions and any of the Revolving Obligations are outstanding, such
Excess Cash Flow Prepayment may be made and accepted after the applicable Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Period expires but prior to start of the next fiscal year, provided, that, all of the following conditions are satisfied at the time
of any such payment, as determined by Revolving Agent, (A) after giving effect to any such Excess Cash Flow Prepayment, the average Excess Availability for the consecutive ninety (90) calendar day period ending on the day prior to such
payment is equal to or greater than $30,000,000, (B) on the date of any such Excess Cash Flow Prepayment and after giving effect thereto, the Excess Availability is equal to or greater than $30,000,000, (C) Agent shall have received a Pro
Forma Compliance Certificate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) demonstrating that, upon giving effect on a Pro Forma Basis (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) to such Excess Cash Flow Prepayment (1) the Fixed Charge
Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) for Parent and its Subsidiaries is equal to or greater than 1.00 to 1.00 and (2) Excess Availability shall be equal to or greater than $30,000,000 for each of the first thirty
(30) days after giving effect to such payment, and (D) on the date of any such Excess Cash Flow Prepayment and after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default (each as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) shall have
occurred and be continuing under the Revolving Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent the Revolving Obligations are outstanding and a 

  
 26 

 
payment under this Section 2.2(a) is not made due to the failure of the Borrowers to satisfy the Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Conditions, it shall not constitute an Event of Default.

 (b) As promptly as reasonably practicable, but in any event within five (5) Business Days (or ten
(10) Business Days to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are deposited by Borrowers in an account with Agent (or a bank or other depositary institution reasonably acceptable to Required Lenders), which account shall be subject to a Deposit
Account Control Agreement and constitute First Priority Term Loan Collateral) following the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds of the sale or issuance by any Borrower or Guarantor of Capital Stock pursuant to Section 9.7(b)(ii) in excess of the
Equity/Debt Threshold Amount, the Borrowers shall cause 50% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such sale or issuance to be applied to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the
Revolving Obligations are outstanding, the Borrowers shall not be obligated to make the mandatory prepayment set forth in this subsection (b) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default arising under Sections 10.1(a)(i),
10.1(a)(ii) (caused by the failure to comply with Section 9.3, 10.1(g) or 10.1(i)) or an Event of Default. 

(c) As promptly as reasonably practicable, but in any event within five (5) Business Days (or ten (10) Business
Days in the event such Net Cash Proceeds are immediately deposited by Borrowers in an account in accordance with the provisions of clause (iii) hereunder) of the date of receipt by any Borrower or Guarantor of Net Cash Proceeds with respect to
any Extraordinary Receipts, Borrowers shall cause 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to be applied to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan; provided that other than such Net Cash Proceeds of a casualty loss with respect to
property insurance or a condemnation event (unless otherwise agreed to by the Required Lenders), Borrowers may in lieu of such prepayment apply such Net Cash Proceeds to the costs of replacement of the assets that are the subject of such
Extraordinary Receipt or the costs of purchase or construction of other assets useful in the business of Borrowers and Guarantors so long as (i) Borrowers shall have given Agent prior written notice of Borrowers’ intention to apply such
Extraordinary Receipt to the costs of replacement of the properties or assets that are the subject of such Extraordinary Receipts or the cost of purchase or construction of other assets useful in the business of Borrowers and Guarantors and that
would constitute First Priority Term Loan Collateral, (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from such replacement, purchase, or construction, (iii) immediately following receipt of such
Net Cash Proceeds and prior to such replacement, purchase, or construction, the applicable Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $500,000 shall have been deposited and maintained by Borrowers or Guarantors in an account with Agent (or a bank or other
depositary institution reasonably acceptable to Required Lenders), which account shall be subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement and constitute First Priority Term Loan Collateral, (iv) the Borrowers or Guarantor complete (or enter into
a legally binding agreement to complete) such replacement, purchase, or construction within 365 days after the initial receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, and (v) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds applied to such replacement, purchase, or
construction shall not exceed $5,000,000 over the term of this Agreement, unless and to the extent that such 365 day period shall have expired without such replacement, purchase or construction (or commitment to replace, purchase or construct) being
made or completed, in which case, any unutilized amounts remaining shall immediately be applied to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan. Nothing in the foregoing 

  
 27 

 
shall be construed to constitute consent by Agent or by any Lender to any transaction not expressly permitted or prohibited by the terms this Agreement. 

(d) As promptly as reasonably practicable, but in any event within five (5) Business Days (or ten (10) Business
Days to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are immediately deposited by Borrowers in an account in accordance with the provisions of clause (iii) hereunder) of the date of receipt by any Borrower or Guarantor of $500,000 or more of aggregate Net
Cash Proceeds with respect to any and all sales or dispositions of assets constituting First Priority Term Loan Collateral (other than any such transactions permitted by Sections 9.7(b)(i),(ii), (iii) and (iv)), the Borrowers shall cause 100%
of the Net Cash Proceeds of such sale or disposition to be applied to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan, together with the applicable Redemption Premium, if any; provided that, so long as (i) Borrowers shall have
given Agent prior written notice of Borrowers’ intention to apply such Net Cash Proceeds to the costs of replacement of the properties or assets that are the subject of such sale or disposition or the costs of purchase or construction of other
assets useful in the business of Borrowers or Guarantors and that would constitute First Priority Term Loan Collateral, (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from such replacement, purchase,
or construction, (iii) immediately following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds and prior to such replacement, purchase, or construction, the applicable Net Cash Proceeds shall be deposited and maintained by Borrowers in an account with Agent
(or a bank or other depositary institution reasonably acceptable to Required Lenders), which account shall be subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement and constitute First Priority Term Loan Collateral, (iv) the Borrowers or Guarantors
complete (or enter into a legally binding agreement to complete) such replacement, purchase, or construction within 365 days after the initial receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, and (v) the amount of Net Cash Proceeds applied to such
replacement, purchase, or construction shall not exceed $5,000,000 in any calendar year, then Borrowers may in lieu of such prepayment apply such Net Cash Proceeds to the costs of replacement of the assets that are the subject of such sale or
disposition or the costs of purchase or construction of other assets useful in the business of the Borrowers or Guarantors unless and to the extent that such 365 day period shall have expired without such replacement, purchase, or construction (or
commitment to replace, purchase or construct) being made or completed, in which case, any unutilized amounts remaining shall be applied to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan, together with the applicable Redemption Premium, if
any. 
 2.3 Optional Prepayments. 

(a) The Borrowers may, upon delivery of a prepayment notice to the Agent, at any time voluntarily prepay the Term Loan, in
whole or in part, at par plus any applicable Redemption Premium; provided, that, (1) such notice must be received by the Agent not later than 12:00 noon (New York, New York time) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of such
prepayment of the Term Loan; and (2) any prepayment of the Term Loan shall be in a principal amount of at least $2,000,000 or a whole multiple of $200,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then
outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. The Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such
notice is given by the Administrative Borrower, the Borrowers shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on 

  
 28 

 
the date specified therein (unless such prepayment is in connection with a refinancing or acquisition, in which case such prepayment notice shall be revocable if such refinancing or acquisition
is not consummated). Each prepayment of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share. 
 2.4 Redemption Premium. For avoidance of doubt, any payment of principal of the Term Loan, whether mandatory or optional (including without limitation after an Event of Default or acceleration),
shall be subject to the applicable Redemption Premium at the time of such payment, unless such payment is being made pursuant to any of Section 2.1, Section 2.2(a), Section 2.2(b) or Section 2.2(c), in which case the Redemption
Premium shall not apply. 
 2.5 Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Financing Agreements to the contrary, each Borrower, jointly
and severally, in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Agent and Lenders under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration
of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other
Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction
among them. Borrowers shall be liable for all amounts due to Agent and Lenders under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives the proceeds of the Term Loan hereunder or the amount of such Term Loan received or the manner in
which Agent or any Lender accounts for such Term Loan on its books and records. The Obligations of Borrowers with respect to any portion of the Term Loan made to one of them, and the Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability
of one of the Borrowers hereunder, with respect to any portion of the Term Loan made to the other of the Borrowers hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such other Obligations shall be primary obligations of all Borrowers.

 (b) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the
Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event, the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation. 

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to the extent permitted by law, each Borrower (in its capacity as a
joint and several obligor in respect of the obligations of the other Borrower) hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of occurrence of any Event of Default (except to the extent notice is expressly required to
be given pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by Agent or any Lender under or in respect of any of the
obligations hereunder, any requirement of diligence and, generally, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements. Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of,
any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of 

  
 29 

 
any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by Agent or any Lender at any time or times in respect of any default by
the other Borrowers in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by Agent or any Lender in respect of any of the obligations hereunder, and the taking,
addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of such obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of the other Borrowers. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, each Borrower (in its capacity as a joint and several obligor in respect of the obligations of the other Borrower) assents to any other action or delay in acting or any failure to act on the part of Agent or any Lender, including, without
limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.5 hereof, afford grounds for
terminating, discharging or relieving such Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its obligations under this Section 2.5, it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the
obligations of such Borrower under this Section 2.5 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.5 shall not be diminished or rendered
unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any Borrower or a Lender. The joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder shall continue in full force and
effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, membership, constitution or place of formation of any Borrower or any of the Lenders. 

(d) The provisions of this Section 2.5 are made for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and their respective
successors and assigns, and subject to Section 12.3 hereof, may be enforced by them from time to time against any Borrower as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of Agent or any Lender first to marshal any
of its claims or to exercise any of its rights against the other Borrowers or to exhaust any remedies available to it against the other Borrowers or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or
to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 2.5 shall remain in effect until all the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied (other than indemnities and contingent Obligations which have not yet
accrued). If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or
otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.5 hereof will forthwith be reinstated and in effect as though such payment had not been made. 
 (e) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Financing Agreements, to the extent the obligations of a Borrower shall be adjudicated to be invalid or
unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of such Borrower hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that
is permissible under applicable law (whether federal or state and including, without limitation, the Bankruptcy Code of the United States). 

  
 30 

 (f) With respect to the Obligations arising as a result of the joint and
several liability of Borrowers hereunder with respect to the Term Loan made to the other Borrowers hereunder, each of Borrowers waives, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full (other than indemnities and contingent Obligations which have
not yet accrued) and this Agreement shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower, 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 Agent or any Lender. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to Agent or Lenders
hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in
cash of the Obligations. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as the same is continuing, Agent and Lenders may proceed directly and at once, without notice (to the extent notice is waivable under applicable law), against
(i) with respect to Obligations of Borrowers, either or both of them or (ii) with respect to Obligations of any Borrower, to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the applicable Obligations, without first proceeding
against the other applicable Borrowers or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that Agent and Lenders shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of
Borrower(s) or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. 
 SECTION 3. INTEREST AND FEES 

3.1 Interest. 
 (a) Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan at the Interest Rate. All interest accruing hereunder on and after the date of
any Event of Default or termination hereof shall be payable on demand. 
 (b) Unless otherwise requested by
Administrative Borrower, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have elected a three (3) month Interest Period for the Term Loan. Administrative Borrower may from time to time elect a new
Interest Period to be applicable to the Term Loan after the termination of the prior Interest Period. Such request from Administrative Borrower shall specify the Interest Period to be applicable to the Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions
contained herein, so long as the Agent receives (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of the preceding Interest Period written notice of such election, the new Interest Period with respect to the Term Loan shall commence on the day on which
the preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires, provided, that, (1) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (2) no party hereto shall have sent any notice of termination of this Agreement, and (3) Agent
and each Lender shall have determined that the Interest Period or Adjusted Eurodollar Rate can be readily determined as of the date of the request by such Borrower. 

(c) Intentionally Omitted. 

  
 31 

 (d) Interest shall be payable by Borrowers to Agent in cash, for the account
of Agent and Lenders as applicable, monthly in arrears not later than the first Business Day of each calendar month; provided that the Administrative Borrower may elect at its option by delivery of at least 5 Business Days prior notice to the
Agent by Administrative Borrower of such election, to pay interest due hereunder in an amount equal to 1.0% per annum in kind, on each interest payment date by capitalizing such interest and adding the same to the then outstanding principal
amount of the Term Loan (such capitalized interest, collectively, shall be referred to as “PIK Interest”). Once capitalized, PIK Interest shall constitute principal under the Term Loan for all purposes of this Agreement. Interest shall be
calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. In no event shall charges constituting interest payable by Borrowers to Agent and Lenders exceed the maximum amount or the rate permitted under any
applicable law or regulation, and if any such part or provision of this Agreement is in contravention of any such law or regulation, such part or provision shall be deemed amended to conform thereto. 

3.2 Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Agent the other fees and amounts set forth in the Fee Letters in the amounts and at the times
specified therein or as has otherwise been agreed by or on behalf of Borrowers and Agent. 
 3.3 Changes in Laws and
Increased Costs of Loans. 
 (a) If after the date hereof, either (i) any change in, or in the
interpretation of, any law or regulation is introduced, including, without limitation, with respect to reserve requirements, applicable to any Lender or any banking or financial institution from whom any Lender borrows funds or obtains credit (a
“Funding Bank”), or (ii) a Funding Bank or any Lender complies with any future guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or (iii) a Funding Bank, any Lender determines that the adoption after the
date hereof of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof has or would have the effect described below, or a Funding Bank, any Lender complies with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority,
central bank or comparable agency, and in the case of any event set forth in this clause (iii), such adoption, change or compliance has or would have the direct or indirect effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s capital as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Funding Bank’s or Lender’s policies with respect to capital
adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, and the result of any of the foregoing events described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) is or results in an increase in the cost to any Lender of maintaining such Lender’s
portion of the Term Loan (other than any increased cost described in Section 6.5), then Borrowers and Guarantors shall from time to time upon demand by Agent pay to Agent additional amounts sufficient to indemnify such Lender against such
increased cost on an after-tax basis (without duplication of any amounts received by Agent or Lenders in connection with Section 6.5 hereof) (after taking into account applicable deductions and credits in respect of the amount indemnified). A
certificate as to the amount of such increased cost shall be submitted to Administrative Borrower by Agent or the applicable Lender and shall be conclusive, absent 

  
 32 

 
manifest error. In the event of a conflict between this Section 3.3(a) and Section 6.5 the terms and provisions of Section 6.5 shall control and govern. 

(b) Borrowers and Guarantors shall indemnify Agent and each Lender and to hold Agent and each Lender harmless from any
loss or expense which Agent or such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by any Borrower in making a borrowing of, or extension of the Term Loan after such Borrower (or Administrative Borrower on behalf of such Borrower)
has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) default by any Borrower in making any prepayment of the Term Loan after such Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement, and (iii) the making of a prepayment of the Term Loan on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. With respect to the Term Loan, such indemnification may include an amount equal to the
excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not extended, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to extend to the last day of the applicable Interest Period in
each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Term Loan provided for herein over (B) the amount of interest (as determined by such Agent or such Lender) which would have accrued to Agent or such Lender on such amount by placing such
amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurodollar market. This covenant shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations. 

SECTION 4. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

anything to the contrary in this Section 4, execution of this Agreement by the Lenders shall be deemed to be confirmation to the Agent from such Lender that the conditions precedent have been satisfied and the Agent shall be entitled to rely on
such confirmation. Further notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4, with respect to the conditions precedent set forth herein, the Agent shall not be responsible for determining the satisfaction of such conditions precedent.

 SECTION 5. GRANT AND PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST

Borrower and Guarantor, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or existing, and wherever located (together with all other collateral security for the Obligations at any time granted to or held or acquired by Agent or any Lender, collectively, the

 (a) all Accounts; 
 (b) all general intangibles, including, without
limitation, all Intellectual Property; 
 (c) all goods, including, without limitation, Inventory and Equipment;

(g) all documents; 
 (h) all deposit accounts; 

  
 36 

 (i) all letters of credit, banker’s acceptances and similar instruments
and including all letter-of-credit rights; 
 (j) all supporting obligations and all present and future liens,
security interests, rights, remedies, title and interest in, to and in respect of Receivables and other Collateral, including (i) rights and remedies under or relating to guaranties, contracts of suretyship, letters of credit and credit and
other insurance related to the Collateral, (ii) rights of stoppage in transit, replevin, repossession, reclamation and other rights and remedies of an unpaid vendor, lien or secured party, (iii) goods described in invoices, documents,

any kind or nature of any or all of the other Collateral. 
 5.2 Perfection of Security Interests. 

(a) Each Borrower and Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes Agent (or its agent) to file at any time and
from time to time such financing statements with respect to the Collateral naming Agent or its designee as the secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may reasonably require,
and including any other information with respect to such Borrower or Guarantor or otherwise required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of such jurisdiction as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may reasonably
determine, together with any amendment and continuations with respect thereto, which authorization shall apply to all financing statements filed on or after the date hereof. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby authorizes Agent to adopt on behalf of
such Borrower and Guarantor any symbol required for authenticating any electronic filing. In the event that the description of the collateral in any financing statement naming Agent or its designee as the secured party and any Borrower or Guarantor
as debtor includes assets and properties of such Borrower or Guarantor that do not at any time constitute Collateral, whether hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements 

  
 37 

 
or otherwise, the filing of such financing statement shall nonetheless be deemed authorized by such Borrower or Guarantor to the extent of the Collateral included in such description and it shall
not render the financing statement ineffective as to any of the Collateral or otherwise affect the financing statement as it applies to any of the Collateral. So long as any Obligations are outstanding, without the Required Lenders’ prior
consent, in no event shall any Borrower or Guarantor at any time file, or permit or cause to be filed, any correction statement or termination statement with respect to any financing statement (or amendment or continuation with respect thereto)
naming Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor. 
 (b) Each Borrower and
Guarantor does not have any chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic) or instruments as of the date hereof, except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall receive any
chattel paper or instrument for obligations in excess of $2,000,000 in any one case or $2,000,000 in the aggregate that constitutes Collateral after the date hereof, the applicable Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in
writing. Promptly upon the receipt thereof by or on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor (including by any agent or representative), such Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Agent, all tangible chattel paper and
instruments that such Borrower or Guarantor has or may at any time acquire, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may from time to time reasonably
specify, in each case except as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may otherwise agree. At Agent’s option, each Borrower and Guarantor shall, or Agent may at any time an Event of Default exists on behalf of any Borrower or
Guarantor, cause the original of any such instrument or chattel paper to be conspicuously marked in a form and manner reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders with the following legend referring to chattel paper or instruments as applicable:
“This [chattel paper][instrument] is subject to the security interest of The Bank of New York Mellon and any sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance of this [chattel paper][instrument] violates the rights of such secured party.”

 (c) In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall at any time hold or acquire an interest in any
electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record” (as such term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as
in effect in any relevant jurisdiction), such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon Agent’s (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) request, such Borrower or Guarantor shall take, or cause
to be taken, such actions as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may reasonably request to give Agent control of such electronic chattel paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC and control of such transferable record under
Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as in effect in such jurisdiction. 

(d) Each Borrower and Guarantor does not have any deposit accounts as of the date hereof, except as set forth in the
Perfection Certificate. Borrowers and Guarantors shall not, directly or indirectly, after the date hereof open, establish or maintain any deposit account unless each of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) Agent shall have received not
less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the intention of any Borrower or 

  
 38 

 
Guarantor to open or establish such account which notice shall specify in reasonable detail and specificity reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders the name of the account, the owner of the
account, the name and address of the bank at which such account is to be opened or established, the individual at such bank with whom such Borrower or Guarantor is dealing and the purpose of the account, (ii) the bank where such account is
opened or maintained shall be reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders, and (iii) on or before the opening of such deposit account, such Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver to Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement with respect to such
deposit account duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Borrower or Guarantor and the bank at which such deposit account is opened and maintained. The terms of this subsection (d) shall not apply to deposit accounts specifically and
exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s salaried employees in the ordinary course of business. 

(e) No Borrower or Guarantor owns or holds, directly or indirectly, beneficially or as record owner or both, any
investment property, as of the date hereof, or has any investment account, securities account, commodity account or other similar account with any bank or other financial institution or other securities intermediary or commodity intermediary as of
the date hereof, in each case except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate. 
 (i) In the event that any
Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall at any time after the date hereof hold or acquire any certificated securities constituting Collateral, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to Agent,
accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may from time to time reasonably specify. If any securities, now or hereafter acquired by any Borrower or
Guarantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Borrower or Guarantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, such Borrower or Guarantor shall immediately notify Agent thereof and shall as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required
Lenders) may reasonably specify, either (A) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Borrower or Guarantor or such nominee, or (B) arrange for Agent to become
the registered owner of such securities. 
 (ii) Borrowers and Guarantors shall not, directly or indirectly,
after the date hereof open, establish or maintain any investment account, securities account, commodity account or any other similar account (other than a deposit account) with any securities intermediary or commodity intermediary unless each of the
following conditions is satisfied: (A) Agent shall have received not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the intention of such Borrower or Guarantor to open or establish such account which notice shall specify in
reasonable detail and specificity reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders the name of the account, the owner of the account, the name and address of the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary at which such account is to be opened or
established, the individual at such intermediary with whom such Borrower or Guarantor is dealing and the purpose of the account, (B) the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary (as the case may be) where such account is opened or
maintained shall be acceptable to the Required Lenders, and (C) on or before the opening of such investment account, securities account or other similar account with a securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, such Borrower or
Guarantor shall as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may specify either 

  
 39 

 
(i) execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered to Agent, an Investment Property Control Agreement with respect thereto duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Borrower or
Guarantor and such securities intermediary or commodity intermediary or (ii) arrange for Agent to become the entitlement holder with respect to such investment property on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders.

 (f) Borrowers and Guarantors are not the beneficiary or otherwise entitled to any right to payment under any
letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument as of the date hereof, except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall receive any right to payment under
any letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or any similar instrument, whether as beneficiary thereof or otherwise after the date hereof (except with respect to any letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument in support of a
financed Capital Expenditure permitted under Section 9.18 hereof) involving an amount in excess of $1,000,000 in any one case or $2,000,000 in the aggregate that constitute Collateral, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent
thereof in writing. Such Borrower or Guarantor shall immediately, as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may specify, (i) deliver, or cause to be delivered to Agent, with respect to any such letter of credit, banker’s
acceptance or similar instrument, the written agreement of the issuer and any other nominated person obligated to make any payment in respect thereof (including any confirming or negotiating bank), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Required Lenders, consenting to the assignment of the proceeds of the letter of credit to Agent by such Borrower or Guarantor and agreeing to make all payments thereon directly to Agent or as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required
Lenders) may otherwise direct or (ii) cause Agent to become, at Borrowers’ expense, the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument (as the case may be). 

(g) Borrowers and Guarantors do not have any commercial tort claims as of the date hereof, except as set forth in the
Perfection Certificate. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall at any time after the date hereof have any commercial tort claims involving a claim in excess of $2,000,000 (or commercial tort claims in the aggregate in excess of
$5,000,000), that arise in connection with or are related to any other Collateral, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing, which notice shall (i) set forth in reasonable detail the basis for and nature of such
commercial tort claim and (ii) include the express grant by such Borrower or Guarantor to Agent of a security interest in such commercial tort claim (and the proceeds thereof). In the event that such notice does not include such grant of a
security interest, the sending thereof by such Borrower or Guarantor to Agent shall be deemed to constitute such grant to Agent. Upon the sending of such notice, any commercial tort claim described therein shall constitute part of the Collateral and
shall be deemed included therein. Without limiting the authorization of Agent provided in Section 5.2(a) hereof or otherwise arising by the execution by such Borrower or Guarantor of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements,
Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized from time to time and at any time to file such financing statements naming Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, or any amendments to any financing statements,
covering any such commercial tort claim as Collateral. In addition, each Borrower and Guarantor shall promptly upon Agent’s (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) request, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered,
to Agent such other agreements, documents and 

  
 40 

 
instruments as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may reasonably require in connection with such commercial tort claim. 

(h) Borrowers and Guarantors do not have any goods, documents of title or other Collateral having an aggregate value in
excess of $1,000,000 (which as to documents of title for this purpose shall be deemed to refer to the value of the goods covered by such document of title) in the custody, control or possession of a third party as of or after the date hereof, except
as set forth in the Perfection Certificate and except for goods located in the United States in transit to a location of a Borrower or Guarantor permitted herein in the ordinary course of business of such Borrower or Guarantor in the possession of
the carrier transporting such goods. In the event that any goods, documents of title or other Collateral are at any time after the date hereof having a value in excess of $250,000 in any one case in the custody, control or possession of any other
person not referred to in the Perfection Certificate or such carriers, Borrowers and Guarantors shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. 
 (i) Borrowers and Guarantors shall take any other actions reasonably requested by Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) from time to time to cause the attachment, perfection and priority
of, and the ability of Agent to enforce, the security interest of Agent in any and all of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (i) executing, delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments relating
thereto under the UCC or other applicable law, to the extent, if any, that any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s signature thereon is required therefor, (ii) causing Agent’s name to be noted as secured party on any certificate of title
for a titled good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Agent to enforce, the security interest of Agent in such Collateral, (iii) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or
treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Agent to enforce, the security interest of Agent in such Collateral, (iv) obtaining the
consents and approvals of any Governmental Authority or third party, including, without limitation, any consent of any licensor, lessor or other person obligated on Collateral, and taking all actions required by any earlier versions of the UCC or by
other law, as applicable in any relevant jurisdiction. 
 5.3 Exclusions from Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in Section 5.1 above, the types or items of Collateral described in such Section shall not include the Capital Stock of any existing or hereafter organized or acquired direct or indirect Foreign Subsidiary that is a
“controlled foreign corporation” (as such term is defined in Section 957(a) of the Code or a successor provision thereof) in excess of sixty-five (65%) percent of all the issued and outstanding shares of Capital Stock of such
Subsidiary entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.956-2). 
 SECTION 6. COLLECTION AND
ADMINISTRATION 
 6.1 Borrowers’ Term Loan Account. Agent shall maintain one or more loan account(s) on its
books in which shall be recorded (a) the Term Loan and other Obligations and the Collateral, (b) all payments made by or on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor and (c) all other appropriate debits and credits as provided in this
Agreement, including fees, charges, costs, 

  
 41 

 
expenses and interest. All entries in the loan account(s) shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary practices as in effect from time to time. 

6.2 Intentionally Deleted. 
 6.3 Collection of Accounts. 
 (a) Borrowers and Guarantors
shall establish and maintain, at their expense, blocked accounts or lockboxes and related blocked accounts (in either case, “Blocked Accounts”), as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may reasonably specify, with such
banks as are reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders into which (i) Borrowers and Guarantors shall promptly deposit and direct their respective account debtors to directly remit all payments on Receivables and all payments constituting
proceeds of Inventory in the identical form in which such payments are made, whether by cash, check or other manner, or (ii) Borrowers and Guarantors shall promptly deposit all payments on all Collateral (other than Receivables) in the
identical form in which such payments are made, whether by cash, check or other manner. Within sixty (60) Business Days after the Closing Date, Borrowers and Guarantors shall each deliver, or cause to be delivered to Agent, a Deposit Account
Control Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by each bank where a Blocked Account is maintained as provided in Section 5.2 hereof. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent or Revolving Agent, as
applicable, may deliver a Control Notice to the depository bank at which the Blocked Account is maintained. Each Borrower and Guarantor agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default all payments made to such
Blocked Accounts or other funds received and collected by Revolving Agent or any Revolving Lender, whether in respect of the Receivables, as proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral or otherwise shall be treated as payments to Revolving Agent and
Revolving Lenders in respect of the Revolving Obligations and therefore shall constitute the property of Revolving Agent and Revolving Lenders to the extent of the then outstanding Revolving Obligations; provided, that, after the
payment in full of the Indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Agreement (except for contingent indemnification obligations) and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all payments made to such Blocked Accounts or
other funds received and collected by Agent or any Lender, whether in respect of the Receivables, as proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral or otherwise shall be treated as payments to Agent and Lenders in respect of the Obligations and therefore
shall constitute the property of Agent and Lenders to the extent of the then outstanding Obligations. 
 (b) Each
Borrower and Guarantor and their respective employees, agents and Subsidiaries shall, acting as trustee for Agent, receive, as the property of Agent, any monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or
other Collateral which come into their possession or under their control and immediately upon receipt thereof, shall deposit or cause the same to be deposited in the Blocked Accounts, or remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to
Agent. Borrowers agree to reimburse Agent on demand for any amounts owed or paid to any bank or other financial institution at which a Blocked Account or any other deposit account or investment account is established or any other bank, financial
institution or other person involved in the transfer of funds to or from the Blocked Accounts arising out of Agent’s payments to or indemnification of such bank, financial institution or other person other than resulting from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of 

  
 42 

 
Agent. The obligations of Borrowers to reimburse Agent for such amounts pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

6.4 Payments. 
 (a) All Obligations shall be payable to the Agent Payment Account as provided in Section 13.1 hereof or such other place as Agent may designate in writing to Administrative Borrower from time to
time. 
 (b) Subject to the other terms and conditions contained herein, Agent shall apply payments received or
collected from any Borrower or Guarantor or for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor (including the monetary proceeds of collections or of realization upon any Collateral) as follows: first, to the payment in full of any fees, indemnities
or expense reimbursements then due to Agent from any Borrower or Guarantor; second, ratably, to the payment in full of any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to Lenders from any Borrower or Guarantor; third, ratably,
to the payment in full of interest due in respect of the Term Loan; fourth, to the payment in full of principal in respect of the Term Loan; fifth, to pay or prepay any other Obligations whether or not then due, in such order and
manner as Administrative Borrower requests; and seventh, to the extent any proceeds remain, to the Administrative Borrower or such other Person that may be legally entitled thereto. 

(c) At Agent’s option, all principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses and other charges provided for in this
Agreement or the other Financing Agreements may be charged directly to the loan account(s) of any Borrower maintained by Agent. If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of Collateral applied to the payment of, any of the Obligations, Agent,
or any Lender is required to surrender or return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and continue and this Agreement shall continue in
full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Agent or such Lender. Borrowers and Guarantors shall be liable to pay to Agent, and do hereby indemnify and hold Agent and Lenders harmless for the amount of any payments
or proceeds surrendered or returned. This Section 6.4 shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section 6.4 shall survive the
payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 
 6.5 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any of the Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without deduction
or withholding for or on account of, any setoff, counterclaim, defense, duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, charges, withholdings, liabilities, restrictions or conditions of any kind, excluding (i) in the case of each Lender, and
Agent (A) taxes measured by the income of, and franchise taxes (or similar taxes) imposed on, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Lender or Agent
(as the case may be) is organized or in which such Lender’s or the Agent’s principal lending office is located or, in the case of each Lender, in which its applicable lending office is located, (B) any branch profits tax imposed by
the United States of America, and (C) any withholding taxes payable either with respect to 

  
 43 

 
payments under the Financing Agreements under laws (including any statute, treaty or regulation) in effect on the date hereof (or, in the case of an Eligible Transferee, the date of the
Assignment and Acceptance) applicable to such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) or as a result of such Lender’s or Agent’s failure or inability to comply with Section 6.5(h) hereof, provided, that withholding taxes payable as a
result of any change in such laws occurring after the date hereof (or the date of such Assignment and Acceptance) shall not be excluded pursuant to this clause (i)(C); (ii) in the case of each Lender, taxes measured by its income, and franchise
taxes (or other similar taxes) imposed on it as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any taxing authority thereof or therein (other than a connection
arising solely from such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payment under, or enforced its rights or remedies under this Agreement or any Financing Agreement); and (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender
(other than an assignee pursuant to a request by the Borrower under Section 13.6 hereof) any withholding tax that either would be imposed on amounts payable to such Foreign Lender at the time such Foreign Lender becomes a party hereto or
designates a new lending office or is attributable to such Foreign Lender’s failure or inability (other than as a result of a change in law subsequent to the date of it becomes a Lender) to comply with Section 6.5(g) hereof, except to the
extent that such Foreign Lender (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time of designation of a new lending office (or Assignment), to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such withholding tax pursuant to
Section 6.5(b) below; (iv) any taxes imposed on any “withholdable payment” payable to such recipient to satisfy the applicable requirements as set forth in FATCA after December 31, 2012, and (v) any interest, additions
to taxes or penalties with respect to any of the foregoing excluded taxes in (i) through (iv) (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as
“Taxes”). 
 (b) If any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any sum
payable in respect of the Obligations to any Lender or Agent (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section 6.5), such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the relevant Borrower or Guarantor shall make such deductions, (iii) the
relevant Borrower or Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) within ten (10) days after the date of such payment (or, if receipts or
evidence are not available within ten (10) days, as soon as possible thereafter), the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent for its account or for the account of any Lender (as the case may be) the original or a certified copy of a receipt
evidencing payment thereof, or in the event that the same is not available using commercially reasonable business efforts, such other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. 

(c) In addition, each Borrower and Guarantor agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other
excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any applicable foreign jurisdiction, and all liabilities with respect thereto, in each case arising from any payment made hereunder or
under any of the other Financing Agreements or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements 

  
 44 

 
excluding, however, such amounts imposed as a result of assignment other than an assignment pursuant to Section 6.5(j) hereof (collectively, “Other Taxes”). 

(d) Each Borrower and Guarantor shall indemnify, jointly and severally, each Lender and Agent for the full amount of Taxes
and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 6.5) paid by such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including for penalties, interest and expenses)
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) makes
written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Administrative Borrower by a Lender or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower or Guarantor, such Borrower or
Guarantor shall furnish to Agent, at its address referred to herein, a copy (or if reasonably available, a certified copy) of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 

(f) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreements of any Borrower or Guarantor hereunder or under any of the
other Financing Agreements, the agreements and obligations of such Borrower or Guarantor contained in this Section 6.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations. 

(g) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the Code, or any treaty
to which the United States is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements shall deliver to Administrative Borrower (with a copy to Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as
reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Agent (in such number of copies as is reasonably requested by the recipient), whichever of the following is applicable: (i) duly completed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W 8BEN,
Form W-8EXP or W-8IMY (with the appropriate attachments thereto), as appropriate, claiming exemption from, or a reduction to, withholding tax under an income tax treaty or the Code, or any successor form, (ii) duly completed copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W 8ECI claiming exemption from withholding because the income is effectively connection with a U.S. trade or business, or any successor form, (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate of the Lender to the effect that such Lender is not a (1) “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) “10
percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) “controlled foreign corporation” described and Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) duly completed copies of the
relevant form described in clause (i) claiming exemption from withholding under the portfolio interest exemption, or any successor form or (iv) any other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by applicable law as a basis for
claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit a Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to
be made. Unless Administrative Borrower and Agent have received, prior to the date that any payment is due pursuant to this Agreement or 

  
 45 

 
any Financing Agreement, forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements to or for a Foreign Lender are not subject
to United States withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, Borrowers or Agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable requirements of law from such payments to or for a Foreign
Lender at the applicable statutory rate. 
 (h) Any Lender that is a “United States person,” as defined
in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Administrative Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on the date the earlier of the first date on which payment is required to be made to such Lender under
this Agreement or within five (5) Business Days of the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower) duly completed copies of IRS Form W 9, or any successor
form that such Lender is entitled to provide at such time in order to comply with United States backup withholding requirements, if required to avoid the application of backup withholding under the Code. 

(i) If a payment made to a Lender under any Financing Agreement would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax
imposed by FATCA if such Lender fails 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 Administrative Borrower
and the Agent (1) a certification signed by a Responsible Officer of such Lender, and (2) other documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower and the Agent sufficient for the Agent and the Administrative Borrower to
comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such applicable reporting requirements. 
 (j) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 6.5 hereof shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions)
to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that would be payable or may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole
determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender; provided, that nothing in this Section 6.5(j) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to
Section 6.5(b) or otherwise. The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or Agent in connection with any change pursuant to this Section 6.5(j). 

(k) If Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes
as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 6.5, it shall pay to the Administrative Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the
extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 6.5 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Agent or such Lender, as the case
may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrowers, upon the request of Agent, or such Lender, agree to repay the

  
 46 

 
amount paid over to the Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Agent or such Lender in the event Agent or such Lender is
required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes) to the Borrowers or any other
Person. 
 6.6 Intentionally Deleted. 
 6.7 Use of Proceeds. Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Term Loan hereunder only for: (a) the payment in full of Administrative Borrower’s existing Indebtedness pursuant to the
Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of December 8, 2006 by and among the Administrative Borrower and Sankaty Advisors, LLC, as agent and the other parties thereto, as amended (the “Existing Note Purchase Agreement”) including all
accrued and unpaid interest, fees and other payment obligations thereunder, (b) the payment in full of the Accrued Management Fees, (c) costs, expenses and fees in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of
this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, (d) the payment of the broker’s fee due to Challenger Capital Group Ltd. in an amount equal to $787,500, (e) the payment of the fees permitted under Section 9.12(b)(iii)(B) and

purposes of any such Borrower not otherwise prohibited by the terms hereof (including permitted investments, payment of dividends and repayment of certain Indebtedness, in each case, to the extent expressly permitted in this Agreement). None of the
proceeds will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin security or for the purposes of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin security or for
any other purpose which might cause the Term Loan to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as amended. 

6.8 Appointment of Administrative Borrower as Agent for Requesting the Term Loan and Receipts of Loans and Statements. 

(a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Administrative Borrower as its agent and attorney-in-fact to
request and receive the proceeds of the Term Loan pursuant to this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements from Agent or any Lender in the name or on behalf of such Borrower. 

(b) Administrative Borrower hereby accepts the appointment by Borrowers to act as the agent and attorney-in-fact of
Borrowers pursuant to this Section 6.8. Administrative Borrower shall ensure that the disbursement of the proceeds of the Term Loan to each Borrower requested by or paid to or for the account of Parent, shall be paid to or for the account of
such Borrower. 
 (c) Each Borrower and other Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes
Administrative Borrower as its agent to receive statements on account and all other notices from Agent and Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements.

  
 47 

 (d) Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking
by or on behalf of any other Borrower or any Guarantor by Administrative Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower
or Guarantor to the same extent as if made directly by such Borrower or Guarantor. 
 (e) No purported
termination of the appointment of Administrative Borrower as agent as aforesaid shall be effective, except after ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Agent. 
 6.9 Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed by the applicable Lenders: (a) the making of the Term Loan shall be made among the
Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Term Loan and (b) each payment on account of any Obligations to or for the account of one or more of Lenders in respect of any Obligations due on a particular day shall be allocated among
the Lenders entitled to such payments based on their respective Pro Rata Shares of the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan and shall be distributed accordingly. 
 6.10 Sharing of Payments, Etc. 
 (a) If any Lender
(including Agent) shall obtain from any Borrower or Guarantor payment of any principal of or interest on the Term Loan owing to it or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements through the exercise of
any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received more than its Pro Rata Share of the principal of the
Term Loan or more than its share of such other amounts then due hereunder or thereunder by any Borrower or Guarantor to such Lender than the percentage thereof received by any other Lender, it shall promptly pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders,
the amount of such excess and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or
preserving such excess payment) in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares or as otherwise agreed by Lenders. To such end all Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participation sold or otherwise) if
such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. 
 (b) Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender
to exercise any right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaims or similar rights or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other Indebtedness or obligation of
any Borrower or Guarantor. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, assign such rights
to Agent for the benefit of Lenders and, in any event, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of Lenders entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

 6.11 Intentionally Deleted.

 6.12 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligation
of each Lender hereunder is several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligation or commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and no action taken by the Lenders
pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders to be a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt,
and subject to Section 12.3 hereof, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose. 
 6.13 Intentionally Deleted. 
 6.14 Promissory Notes. Each Lender may at any time request that the portion of the Term Loan made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such
Lender a promissory note, substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, payable to the order of such Lender. Thereafter, that portion of the Term Loan evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after
assignment pursuant to Section 13.7) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein. 
 SECTION 7. COLLATERAL REPORTING AND COVENANTS

copies of any documents or any other deliverables required to be delivered to the Revolving Agent pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Revolving Credit Agreement substantially simultaneously upon delivering such documents or other deliverables to the
Revolving Agent. On and after the payment in full of the Revolving Obligations, Borrowers shall provide Agent with the following documents in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders: 

(i) Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may request such documents more frequently at any time a

indicating the amount of cash (and the deposit accounts in which such cash is held) of Borrowers as of the end of preceding week or day, as applicable, and 
 (ii) such other reports as to the Collateral as Agent or Required Lenders shall reasonably request from time to time with respect to such information not

  
 49 

 
otherwise specified above (and if such request is for a report to be on a periodic basis after the initial request therefor, such frequency to be agreed to by Administrative Borrower and Agent);
and 
 (iii) at any time a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, on a monthly basis

(b) All of the documents, reports and schedules provided by or on behalf of any Borrower to Agent hereunder for Accounts
payable in any currency other than US Dollars shall set forth the US Dollar Equivalent for the amount of the Eligible Account included in any such documents, reports or schedules. For purposes hereof, Agent may, at its option, provide to
Administrative Borrower, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date any such documents, reports or schedules are required to be provided by Borrowers to Agent hereunder, the Exchange Rates required to set forth the US Dollar Equivalent
in such documents, reports and schedules and in the event Agent does not do so, Borrowers shall use such rates of exchange with respect to the applicable currencies as Borrowers use for such purpose in the ordinary course of business consistent with
current practices as of the date hereof and shall identify such rates of exchange in any such documents, reports and schedules. 

7.2 Accounts Covenants. 
 (a) Borrowers shall provide Agent substantially simultaneously with the delivery to the Revolving Agent of any notification of (to the extent not otherwise reflected in the most recent Borrowing Base
Certificate provided to Revolving Agent): (i) any material delay in any Borrower’s performance of any of its material obligations to any account debtor or the assertion of any material claims, offsets, defenses or counterclaims by any
account debtor, or any material disputes with account debtors, in each case, known to any Responsible Officer, or any settlement, adjustment or compromise thereof, (ii) all material adverse information actually known to any Responsible Officer
relating to the financial condition of any account debtor with respect to the Accounts of any Borrower or Guarantor and (iii) any event or circumstance which, to the best of any Responsible Officer’s knowledge, would cause the Revolving
Agent to consider any then existing Accounts as no longer constituting Eligible Accounts. So long as no Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers and Guarantors shall settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset,
counterclaim or dispute with any account debtor. At any time that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall, at its option, have the exclusive right to settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset, counterclaim or
dispute with account debtors or grant any credits, discounts or allowances.

business in accordance with practices and policies previously or hereafter disclosed to Agent, (iv) there shall be no setoffs, deductions, contras, defenses, counterclaims or disputes existing or asserted with respect to Accounts of any

desirable), shall have the right, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Receivables or other Collateral, by mail, telephone, facsimile transmission or otherwise, in Agent’s
name or in the name of a nominee of Agent.

to Agent and Lenders and upon which Agent and Lenders are expressly permitted to rely (each such appraisal being referred to as an “Inventory Appraisal”), in any twelve (12) month period; (e) Borrowers and Guarantors shall
produce, use, store and maintain the Inventory with all reasonable care and caution and in accordance with applicable standards of any insurance and in

the Inventory or other Collateral constitutes farm products or the proceeds thereof; (g) as between Agent and Lenders, on the one hand, and Borrowers and Guarantors, on the other hand, each Borrower and Guarantor assumes all responsibility and
liability arising from or relating to the production, use, sale or other disposition of the Inventory; (h) Borrowers and Guarantors shall not sell Inventory to any customer on approval, or any other basis which entitles the customer to return

7.4 Equipment and Real Property Covenants. With respect to the Equipment and Real Property: (a) upon Agent’s (acting at
the direction of the Required Lenders) reasonable request, Borrowers and Guarantors shall, at their expense, at any time or times as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may reasonably request after an Event of Default has

 7.5 Power of Attorney. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Agent (and all persons designated by Agent) as such Borrower’s and Guarantor’s true and

Administrative Borrower: (a) cure any default by any Borrower or Guarantor under any material agreement with a third party if (i) such Borrower or Guarantor is not disputing such default or are not proceeding to cure the same and

verifying and auditing the Collateral and all of each Borrower’s and Guarantor’s books and records, including the Records, and (b) each Borrower and Guarantor shall promptly furnish to Agent such copies of such books and records or

 SECTION 8. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 Each Borrower and
Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders the following (which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement): 
 8.1 Corporate Existence, Power and Authority. Each Borrower and Guarantor is a corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership or trust duly organized and in good standing under the
laws of its jurisdiction of organization and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, limited partnership or trust and in good standing in all states or other jurisdictions where the nature and extent of the business transacted by it or the
ownership of assets makes such qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which the failure to so qualify has 

  
 54 

 
not or would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and the transactions
contemplated hereunder and thereunder (a) are all within each Borrower’s and Guarantor’s corporate or limited liability company or limited partnership powers, (b) have been duly authorized, (c) are not in contravention of
applicable laws in any material respect or the terms of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation, bylaws, operating agreement, limited partnership agreement, or other organizational
documentation, or any indenture, agreement or undertaking to which any Borrower or Guarantor is a party or by which any Borrower or Guarantor or its property are bound and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of, or require or give
rise to any obligation to grant, any lien, security interest, charge or other encumbrance upon any property of any Borrower or Guarantor except as permitted thereunder or hereunder. This Agreement and the other Financing Agreements to which any
Borrower or Guarantor is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of such Borrower and Guarantor enforceable in accordance with their respective terms. 
 8.2 Name; State of Organization; Chief Executive Office; Collateral Locations. 
 (a) The exact legal name of each Borrower and Guarantor is as set forth on the signature page of this Agreement and in the Perfection Certificate. No Borrower or Guarantor has, during the five years prior
to the date of this Agreement, been known by or used any other corporate or fictitious name or been a party to any merger or consolidation, or acquired all or substantially all of the assets of any Person, or acquired any of its property or assets
out of the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in the Perfection Certificate. 
 (b) Each Borrower
and Guarantor is an organization of the type and organized in the jurisdiction set forth in the Perfection Certificate. The Perfection Certificate accurately sets forth the organizational identification number of each Borrower and Guarantor or
accurately states that such Borrower or Guarantor has none and accurately sets forth the federal employer identification number of each Borrower and Guarantor. 
 (c) The chief executive office and mailing address of each Borrower and Guarantor and each Borrower’s and Guarantor’s Records concerning Accounts are located only at the address identified as
such in Schedule 8.2 and its only other places of business and the only other locations of Collateral, if any, are the addresses set forth in Schedule 8.2, subject to the rights of any Borrower or Guarantor to establish new locations in accordance
with Section 9.2 below. Schedule 8.2 correctly identifies any of such locations which are not owned by a Borrower or Guarantor and sets forth the owners and/or operators thereof. 

8.3 Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Change. All financial statements relating to any Borrower or Guarantor which have
been or may hereafter be delivered by any Borrower or Guarantor to Agent and Lenders have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (except as to any interim financial statements, to the extent such statements are subject to normal year-end adjustments
and do not include any notes) and fairly present in all material respects the financial condition and the results of operation of such Borrower and Guarantor as at the dates and for the periods set forth therein. Except as disclosed in any interim
financial statements furnished by Borrowers and Guarantors to Agent prior to the date of this Agreement, there has 

  
 55 

 
been no act, condition or event which has had or is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect since the date of the most recent audited financial statements of any Borrower or Guarantor
furnished by any Borrower or Guarantor to Agent prior to the date of this Agreement. The projections dated April 2010 for the fiscal years ending 2010 through 2014 that have been delivered to the Required Lenders or any projections hereafter
delivered to Agent have been prepared in light of the past operations of the businesses of Borrowers and Guarantors and are based upon estimates and assumptions stated therein, all of which Borrowers and Guarantors have determined to be reasonable
and fair in light of the then current conditions and current facts and reflect the good faith and reasonable estimates of Borrowers and Guarantors of the future financial performance of Parent and its Subsidiaries and of the other information
projected therein for the periods set forth therein, it being understood that actual results may vary from such forecasts and that such variations may be material. 
 8.4 Priority of Liens; Title to Properties. The security interests and liens granted to Agent under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements constitute valid and perfected first priority
liens and security interests in and upon the Collateral subject only to the liens indicated on Schedule 8.4 and the other liens permitted under Section 9.8 hereof. Each Borrower and Guarantor has good and marketable fee simple title to or valid
leasehold interests in all of its Real Property and good, valid and merchantable title to all of its other properties and assets subject to no liens, mortgages, pledges, security interests, encumbrances or charges of any kind, except those granted

 10.2 Remedies. 
 (a) At any time an Event of Default exists
or has occurred and is continuing, Agent and Lenders shall have all rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, the UCC and other applicable law, all of which rights and remedies may be exercised without notice to
or consent by any Borrower or Guarantor, except as such notice or consent is expressly provided for hereunder or required by applicable law. All rights, 

  
 88 

 
remedies and powers granted to Agent and Lenders hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements, the UCC or other applicable law, are cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable, in the
Required Lenders’ discretion, alternatively, successively, or concurrently on any one or more occasions, and shall include, without limitation, the right to apply to a court of equity for an injunction to restrain a breach or threatened breach
by any Borrower or Guarantor of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Subject to Section 12 hereof, Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may, at any time or times, proceed directly against any Borrower or
Guarantor to collect the Obligations without prior recourse to the Collateral. 
 (b) Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may, upon notice to Administrative Borrower, accelerate the payment of all Obligations
(including the Redemption Premium, if applicable) and demand immediate payment thereof to Agent for itself and the benefit of Lenders (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 10.1(g) and
10.1(h), all Obligations (including the Redemption Premium, if applicable) shall automatically become immediately due and payable). 
 (c) Without limiting the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, the Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may, in its discretion
(i) with or without judicial process or the aid or assistance of others, enter upon any premises on or in which any of the Collateral may be located and take possession of the Collateral or complete processing, manufacturing and repair of all
or any portion of the Collateral, (ii) require any Borrower or Guarantor, at Borrowers’ expense, to assemble and make available to Agent any part or all of the Collateral at any place and time designated by Agent, (iii) collect,
foreclose, receive, appropriate, setoff and realize upon any and all Collateral, (iv) remove any or all of the Collateral from any premises on or in which the same may be located for the purpose of effecting the sale, foreclosure or other
disposition thereof or for any other purpose, (v) sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral (including entering into contracts with respect thereto, public or private sales at any exchange,
broker’s board, at any office of Agent or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may deem reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with the Agent (acting at the direction
of the Required Lenders) having the right to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral at any such public sale, all of the foregoing being free from any right or equity of redemption of any Borrower or Guarantor, which right or equity of
redemption is hereby expressly waived and released by Borrowers and Guarantors and/or (vi) terminate this Agreement. If any of the Collateral is sold or leased by Agent upon credit terms or for future delivery, the Obligations shall not be
reduced as a result thereof until payment therefor is finally collected by Agent. If notice of disposition of Collateral is required by law, ten (10) days’ prior notice by Agent to Administrative Borrower designating the time and place of
any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice thereof and to the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrowers and Guarantors waive any
other notice. In the event Agent institutes an action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of prejudgment remedy, each Borrower and Guarantor waives the posting of any bond which might otherwise be required.

  
 89 

 (d) At any time or times that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and
is continuing, the Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may, in its discretion, enforce the rights of any Borrower or Guarantor against any account debtor, secondary obligor or other obligor in respect of any of the Accounts or
other Receivables. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may, in its good faith discretion, at such time or times (i) notify any or all account debtors, secondary obligors
or other obligors in respect thereof that the Receivables have been assigned to Agent and that Agent has a security interest therein and Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may direct any or all account debtors, secondary
obligors and other obligors to make payment of Receivables directly to Agent, (ii) extend the time of payment of, compromise, settle or adjust for cash, credit, return of merchandise or otherwise, and upon any terms or conditions, any and all
Receivables or other obligations included in the Collateral and thereby discharge or release the account debtor or any secondary obligors or other obligors in respect thereof without affecting any of the Obligations, (iii) demand, collect or
enforce payment of any Receivables or such other obligations, but without any duty to do so, and Agent and Lenders shall not be liable for any failure to collect or enforce the payment thereof nor for the negligence of its agents or attorneys with
respect thereto and (iv) take whatever other action Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may deem necessary or desirable for the protection of its interests and the interests of Lenders. At any time that an Event of Default
exists or has occurred and is continuing, at Agent’s (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) request, all invoices and statements sent to any account debtor shall state that the Accounts and such other obligations have been assigned
to Agent and are payable directly and only to Agent and Borrowers and Guarantors shall deliver to Agent such originals of documents evidencing the sale and delivery of goods or the performance of services giving rise to any Accounts as Agent (acting
at the direction of the Required Lenders) may require. In the event any account debtor returns Inventory when an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers shall, upon Agent’s (acting at the direction of the Required
Lenders) request, hold the returned Inventory in trust for Agent, segregate all returned Inventory from all of its other property, dispose of the returned Inventory solely according to Agent’s instructions, and not issue any credits, discounts
or allowances with respect thereto without Agent’s prior written consent. 
 (e) To the extent that
applicable law imposes duties on Agent or any Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner (which duties cannot be waived under such law), each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially
unreasonable for Agent or any Lender (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Agent or any Lender to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other
finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain consents of any Governmental Authority or other third
party for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors, secondary obligors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or
encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection
specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or 

  
 90 

 
media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as any Borrower or Guarantor, for
expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to
dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of
assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Agent or Lenders against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to
provide to Agent or Lenders a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other
professionals to assist Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Agent or any
Lender would not be commercially unreasonable in the exercise by Agent or any Lender of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Agent or any Lender shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not
being indicated in this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to any Borrower or Guarantor or to impose any duties on Agent or Lenders that would not have been granted
or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section. 
 (f) For the purpose of
enabling Agent to exercise the rights and remedies hereunder, each Borrower and Guarantor hereby grants to Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and
for so long as the same is continuing) without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Borrower or Guarantor, to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the trademarks, service-marks, trade names, business names, trade styles, designs,
logos and other source of business identifiers and other Intellectual Property and general intangibles now owned or hereafter acquired by any Borrower or Guarantor, wherever the same maybe located, including in such license reasonable access to all
media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. 
 (g) At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may apply the Net Cash Proceeds of Collateral actually received by
Agent from any sale, lease, foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral to payment of the Obligations, in whole or in part and in accordance with the terms hereof, whether or not then due or may hold such proceeds as cash collateral for the
Obligations. Borrowers and Guarantors shall remain liable to Agent and Lenders for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and all costs and expenses of collection or enforcement, including attorneys’
fees and expenses.

of law or other rule of law that would cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York. 
 (b) Borrowers, Guarantors, Agent, and each Lender, each irrevocably consent and submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County and the United

arising under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or the
transactions related hereto or thereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, and agree that any dispute with respect to any such matters shall be heard only in the courts
described above (except that Agent and Lenders shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding against any Borrower or Guarantor or its or their property in the courts of any other jurisdiction which Agent deems necessary or appropriate in
order to realize on the Collateral or to otherwise enforce its rights against any Borrower or Guarantor or its or their property). 
 (c) Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process may be made by certified mail (return receipt requested)
directed to its address set forth herein and service so made shall be deemed to be completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so deposited in the U.S. mails, or, at Agent’s option, by service upon any Borrower or Guarantor (or
Administrative Borrower on behalf of such Borrower or Guarantor) in any other manner provided under the rules of any such courts. Within thirty (30) days after such service, such Borrower or Guarantor shall appear in answer to such process,

(d) BORROWERS, GUARANTORS, AGENT, AND LENDERS EACH HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION
OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING
AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN 

  
 92 

 
CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. BORROWERS, GUARANTORS, AGENT, AND LENDERS EACH HEREBY AGREE AND CONSENT THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL
WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT ANY BORROWER, ANY GUARANTOR, AGENT, OR ANY LENDER MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY. 
 (e) Agent and Secured Parties shall not have any liability to any Borrower or Guarantor (whether in
tort, contract, equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by such Borrower or Guarantor in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event
occurring in connection herewith, unless it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Agent, and such Lender, that the losses were the result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Each Borrower and Guarantor: (i) certifies that neither Agent, any Lender, nor any representative, agent or attorney acting for or on behalf of Agent or any Lender has represented, expressly or otherwise, that Agent and Lenders
would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce any of the waivers provided for in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and (ii) acknowledges that in entering into this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements,
Agent and Lenders are relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications set forth in this Section 11.1 and elsewhere herein and therein.

chattel paper, included in or evidencing any of the Obligations or the Collateral, and any and all other demands and notices of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, the Collateral and this Agreement, except such as are
expressly provided for herein. No notice to or demand on any Borrower or Guarantor which Agent or any Lender may elect to give shall entitle such Borrower or Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other
circumstances. 
 11.3 Amendments and Waivers. 

(a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Financing Agreement nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, waived,
discharged or terminated unless such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by Agent and the Required Lenders or, at Agent’s option, by Agent with the authorization or consent of the Required Lenders, and as to
amendments, waivers, discharges or terminations to any of the Financing Agreements (other than with respect to any provision of Section 12 hereof), by any Borrower and such amendment, waiver, discharger or termination shall be effective and
binding as to all Lenders only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; except, that, no such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination shall: 

(i) reduce the interest rate or any fees or extend the time of payment of principal, interest or any fees or reduce the
principal amount of the Term Loan 

  
 93 

 
without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (other than the waiver of any default interest), 

(ii) release all or substantially all Collateral (except as expressly required hereunder or under any of the other
Financing Agreements or applicable law and except as permitted under Section 12.11(b) hereof), or alter the order of application of proceeds set forth in Section 6.4 without the consent of Agent and all of Lenders, 

(iii) change the definition of Required Lenders, without the consent of Agent and all Lenders, 

(iv) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower or Guarantor of any of their rights and obligations under this
Agreement, without the consent of Agent and all of Lenders,

 (vi) increase the Commitment of any
Lender over the amount thereof then in effect or provided hereunder, in each case without the consent of the Lender affected thereby. 
 (b) Agent and Lenders shall not, by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have expressly or impliedly waived any of its or their rights, powers and/or remedies unless such waiver shall be in
writing and signed as provided herein. Any such waiver shall be enforceable only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver by Agent or any Lender of any right, power and/or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to
or waiver of any such right, power and/or remedy which Agent or any Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.3(a) above, (i) in connection with any amendment, waiver, discharge or termination, in the event that any Lender whose consent
thereto is required shall fail to consent or fail to consent in a timely manner (such Lender being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), but the consent of any other Lenders to such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination
that is required are obtained, if any, or (ii) if any Lender claims any additional amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.5 (such Lender being referred to herein as an “Increased Cost Lender” and any Non-Consenting Lender or
Increased Cost Lender being referred to herein as an “Affected Lender”), then Administrative Borrower shall have the right upon notice to Agent, but not the obligation, at any time thereafter, and upon the exercise by Administrative
Borrower of such right, such Affected Lender shall have the obligation, to sell, assign and transfer to such Eligible Transferee as Administrative Borrower may specify (which shall be satisfactory to the Required Lenders), the portion of the Term
Loan of such Affected Lender and all rights and interests of such Affected Lender pursuant thereto. Agent shall provide the Affected Lender with prior written notice of Administrative Borrower’s intent to exercise its right under this Section,
which notice shall specify the date on which such purchase and sale shall occur. Such purchase and sale shall be pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Acceptance (whether or not executed by the

  
 94 

 
Affected Lender), except that on the date of such purchase and sale, such Eligible Transferee shall pay to the Affected Lender (except as such Eligible Transferee and such Affected Lender may
otherwise agree) the amount equal to: (i) the principal amount of the portion of the Term Loan held by the Affected Lender outstanding as of the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the effective date of such purchase and
sale, plus (ii) amounts accrued and unpaid in respect of interest and fees payable to the Affected Lender to the effective date of the purchase (but in no event shall the Affected Lender be deemed entitled to any early termination fee). Such
purchase and sale shall be effective on the date of the payment of such amount to the Affected Lender. 
 (c) The
consent of Agent shall be required for any amendment, waiver or consent affecting the rights or duties of Agent hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.3(a)
above, (i) in the event that the Required Lenders shall agree that any items otherwise required to be delivered to Agent as a condition of the Term Loan hereunder may be delivered after the date hereof, the Required Lenders may, in their
discretion, agree to extend the date for delivery of such items or take such other action as the Required Lenders may deem appropriate as a result of the failure to receive such items as the Required Lenders may determine or may waive any Event of
Default as a result of the failure to receive such items, in each case without the consent of Agent and (ii) the Required Lenders may consent to any change in the type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or other legal structure of
any Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries and amend the terms hereof or of any of the other Financing Agreements as may be necessary or desirable to reflect any such change, in each case without the approval of Agent. 

11.4 Waiver of Counterclaims. Each Borrower and Guarantor waives all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs or
counterclaims of any nature (other then compulsory counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or thereto. 

11.5 Indemnification. Each Borrower and Guarantor shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold Agent, and each Lender and
their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, advisors and counsel and their respective Affiliates (each such person being an “Indemnitee”), harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any of them in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding commenced or threatened related to the negotiation,
preparation, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of this Agreement, any other Financing Agreements, or any undertaking or proceeding related to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission, event or
transaction related or attendant thereto (but without duplication to any indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 6.5 herein), including amounts paid in settlement, court costs, and the reasonable documented fees and expenses of one
primary counsel and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction except that Borrowers and Guarantors shall not have any obligation under this Section 11.5 to indemnify an Indemnitee with respect to a matter covered hereby resulting from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction (but without limiting the obligations of Borrowers or Guarantors as to any other Indemnitee).
To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in 

  
 95 

 
this Section 11.5 may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrowers and Guarantors shall pay the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay under applicable law
to Agent and Lenders in satisfaction of indemnified matters under this Section 11.5. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower or Guarantor shall assert, and each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives, any claim against any
Indemnitee, on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any of the other Financing Agreements or
any undertaking or transaction contemplated hereby. No Indemnitee referred to above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications,
electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or the transaction contemplated hereby or thereby. All amounts due under this Section 11.5 shall be payable upon
demand. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement. 
 11.6 Currency Indemnity. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, it becomes necessary to
convert into the currency of such jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount due under this Agreement or under any of the other Financing Agreements in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”),
then conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate at which such Agent is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment Currency prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. In the event that
there is a change in the rate of Exchange Rate prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by such Agent of the amount due, Borrowers will, on the date of receipt by such Agent, pay such
additional amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by such Agent on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of
exchange prevailing on the date of receipt by such Agent is the amount then due under this Agreement or such other of the Financing Agreements in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due which such Agent is able to purchase is less than
the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, Borrowers and Guarantors shall, indemnify and save Agent and each Lender harmless from and against loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. The indemnity contained herein shall
constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence
granted by any Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or under any
judgment or order. 
 SECTION 12. THE AGENT 
 12.1 Appointment, Powers and Immunities. Each Secured Party irrevocably designates, appoints and authorizes The Bank of New York Mellon to act as Agent hereunder and under the other Financing
Agreements with such powers as are specifically delegated to 

  
 96 

 
Agent by the terms of this Agreement and of the other Financing Agreements, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any terms hereof or in the other
Financing Agreements, the Agent’s duties hereunder and under any other Financing Agreements are administrative only and it may, but shall not be required under any circumstances to exercise discretion in the performance of its duties hereunder
or under the other Financing Agreements. Agent (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Financing Agreements, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other
Financing Agreement be a trustee or fiduciary for any Secured Party, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements with reference to the Agent is not
intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law; instead, such term us used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an
administrative relationship between independent contracting parties; (b) shall not be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing
Agreements, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or
sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by any Borrower or any Guarantor or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or
thereunder; (c) shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or the exercise of any of its rights or powers; (d) not be responsible or
liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Financing Agreements arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without
limitation, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; business interruptions; loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communication services;
accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority and governmental action; (e) shall not be required to qualify in any jurisdiction in which it is not presently qualified; (f) shall not be responsible for (i) perfecting,
maintaining, monitoring, preserving or protecting the security interest or lien granted under this Agreement or other Financing Agreements, (ii) the filing, re-filing, recording, re-recording or continuing of any document, financing statement,
mortgage, assignment, notice, instrument of further assurance or other instrument in any public office at any time or times or (iii) providing, maintaining, monitoring or preserving insurance on or the payment of taxes with respect to any of
the Collateral and (g) shall not be responsible to Secured Parties for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein
or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Agent may employ agents and attorneys in fact and
shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys in fact selected by it in good faith. Agent may deem and treat the payee of any note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until the
assignment thereof pursuant to an agreement (if and to the extent permitted herein) in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Lenders shall have been delivered to and acknowledged by Agent. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no
Lender shall assert, and each Lender hereby 

  
 97 

 
waives, any claim against Agent, on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with,
or as a result of, this Agreement, any of the other Financing Agreements or any undertaking or transaction contemplated hereby. 

12.2 Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any
thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent
accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of Lenders as is
required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Agents and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Lenders. 
 12.3 Events of Default. 
 (a) Agent shall not be deemed to
have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default or other failure of a condition precedent to the Term Loan hereunder, unless and until Agent has received written notice from a Lender, or Borrower specifying such Event
of Default or any unfulfilled condition precedent, and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default or Failure of Condition”. In the event that Agent receives such a Notice of Default or Failure of Condition, Agent shall give prompt
notice thereof to the Lenders. Agent shall (subject to Section 12.7) take such action with respect to any such Event of Default or failure of condition precedent as shall be directed by the Required Lenders to the extent provided for herein;
provided, that, unless and until Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to or by reason of such Event of Default or
failure of condition precedent, as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of Lenders. 
 (b) Except with
the prior written consent of Agent, no Secured Party may assert or exercise any enforcement right or remedy in respect of the Term Loan or any other Obligation, as against any Borrower or Guarantor or any of the Collateral or other property of any
Borrower or Guarantor or otherwise under any of the Financing Agreements. 
 12.4 Intentionally Deleted. 

12.5 Indemnification. Lenders agree to indemnify Agent, in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, for any and all claims of any
kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Financing
Agreement or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the costs and expenses that Agent is obligated to pay hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms
hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, provided, that, no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent it arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified as determined
by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The 

  
 98 

 
foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement. 
 12.6 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Secured Party agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on Agent or any other Secured Party, and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of Borrowers and Guarantors and has made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Secured Party,
and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Agent shall not be
required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by any Borrower or Guarantor of any term or provision of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein
or to inspect the properties or books of any Borrower or Guarantor. Agent will use reasonable efforts to provide Lenders with any information received by Agent from any Borrower or Guarantor which is required to be provided to Lenders or deemed to
be requested by Lenders hereunder and with a copy of any Notice of Default or Failure of Condition received by Agent from any Borrower or any Lender; provided, that, Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so,
except to the extent that such failure is attributable to Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Except for notices, reports and other documents
expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Agent or deemed requested by Lenders hereunder, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any other credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial
condition or business of any Borrower or Guarantor that may come into the possession of Agent. 
 12.7 Failure to Act.
Except for action expressly required of Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements, Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its
satisfaction from Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 12.5 hereof against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. 

12.8 Intentionally Deleted. 
 12.9 Concerning the Collateral and the Related Financing Agreements. 
 (a) Each Secured Party authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements. Each Secured Party agrees that any action taken by Agent or Required Lenders (or such
greater percentage as may be required hereunder) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements and the exercise by Agent or Required Lenders of their respective powers set forth therein or herein, together with
such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all Secured Parties. 
 (b)
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender (i) consents to the subordination of Agent’s liens in and on Revolving Debt Priority Collateral as 

  
 99 

 
provided for in the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) authorizes and directs Agent to enter into on behalf of such Lender and such Lender will be bound (as a Lender) by the terms and conditions
of the Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) agrees that it will be bound by and take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 12.10 Field Audit, Examination Reports and other Information; Disclaimer by Lenders. By signing this Agreement, each Lender: 

(a) is deemed to have requested that Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field
audit or examination report and report with respect to the Borrowing Base received by Agent (each field audit or examination report and report with respect to the Borrowing Base being referred to herein as a “Report” and collectively,
“Reports”), appraisals with respect to the Collateral and financial statements with respect to Parent and its Subsidiaries received by Agent; 
 (b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent (i) does not make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, appraisal or financial statement or (ii) shall not be liable
for any information contained in any Report, appraisal or financial statement; 
 (c) expressly agrees and
acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that Agent or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Borrowers and Guarantors and will rely significantly upon
Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ books and records, as well as on representations of Borrowers’ and Guarantors’ personnel; and 
 (d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use in accordance with the terms of Section 13.5 hereof, and not to distribute or use any Report in any other manner.

 12.11 Collateral Matters. 
 (a) Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion to release any security interest in, mortgage or lien upon, any of the Collateral (i) upon the payment and
satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than indemnities and contingent Obligations which have not yet accrued) and delivery of cash collateral to the extent required under Section 13.1 below, or (ii) constituting property being sold
or disposed of if Administrative Borrower or any Borrower or Guarantor certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 9.7 hereof (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further
inquiry), or (iii) constituting property in which any Borrower or Guarantor did not own an interest at the time the security interest, mortgage or lien was granted or at any time thereafter, if Administrative Borrower or any Borrower or
Guarantor certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 9.7 hereof (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), or (iv) having a value in the aggregate in any
twelve (12) month period of less than $10,000,000, if Administrative Borrower or any Borrower or Guarantor certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 9.7 hereof (and Agent may rely conclusively on

  
 100

 
any such certificate, without further inquiry), and to the extent Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may release its security interest in and lien upon any such Collateral
pursuant to the sale or other disposition thereof, such sale or other disposition shall be deemed consented to by Lenders, or (v) if required or permitted under the terms of any of the other Financing Agreements, including any intercreditor
agreements, if Administrative Borrower or any Borrower or Guarantor certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 9.7 hereof (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further
inquiry), or (vi) subject to Section 11.3(a)(iv), approved, authorized or ratified in writing by Required Lenders. Except as provided above, Agent will not release any security interest in, mortgage or lien upon, any of the Collateral
without the prior written authorization of all of Lenders. Upon request by Agent at any time, Lenders will promptly confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 12.11.

 (b) Without any manner limiting Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or
consent by the Required Lenders, each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Agent, the authority to release Collateral conferred upon Agent under this Section 12.11. Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders
to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the security interest, mortgage or liens granted to Agent upon any Collateral to the extent set forth above; provided, that, (i) Agent shall not be required
to execute any such document on terms which, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligations or entail any consequence other than the release of such security interest, mortgage or liens without recourse or
warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any security interest, mortgage or lien upon (or obligations of any Borrower or Guarantor in respect of) the Collateral retained by such
Borrower or Guarantor. 
 (c) Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Secured Party or any other Person
to investigate, confirm or assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Borrower or Guarantor or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable
in respect of the Term Loan hereunder, or whether any particular reserves are appropriate, or that the liens and security interests granted to Agent pursuant hereto or any of the Financing Agreements or otherwise have been properly or sufficiently
or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights,
authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Agreements, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, subject to the other
terms and conditions contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as a Secured Party and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any
other Secured Party. 
 (d) Any releases shall be at Borrower’s expense and shall be without representation,
warranty, by Agent, or recourse to Agent, whether express, implied or statutory. 

  
 101

 12.12 Agency for Perfection. Each Secured Party hereby appoints Agent and each other
Secured Party as agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral of Agent in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession (or where the security
interest of a secured party with possession has priority over the security interest of another secured party) and Agent and each Secured Party hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of any such Collateral for the benefit of Agent as secured
party. Should any Secured Party obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Secured Party shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) request therefor shall deliver such Collateral
to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions. 
 12.13 Successor Agent. Agent may resign as Agent upon thirty
(30) days’ notice to Lenders and Parent, and Agent shall resign upon the request of the Required Lenders; provided that a substitute Agent has been appointed in accordance with the terms of this Section 12.13. If Agent resigns under
this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for Lenders which successor agent shall be subject to the approval of Administrative Borrower if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, provided, that, (a) such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and (b) unless Agent shall have received written notice from Administrative Borrower that Administrative Borrower does
not approve such successor agent within three (3) Business Days after receipt by Administrative Borrower of the notice from Agent that it is resigning, Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have given such approval. If no successor agent
is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Parent, a successor agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance by the Lender so selected of its appointment as successor
agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all of the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” as used herein and in the other Financing Agreements shall mean such successor agent and the retiring
Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 12 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted by it
while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days after the date of a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall
nonetheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. 

12.14 Other Agent Designations. Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may at any time and from time to time
determine that a Lender may, in addition, be a “Co-Agent,” “Syndication Agent,” “Documentation Agent” or similar designation hereunder and enter into an agreement with such Lender to have it so identified for purposes
of this Agreement. Any such designation shall be effective upon written notice by Agent to Administrative Borrower of any such designation. Any Lender that is so designated as a Co-Agent, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent or such similar
designation by Agent shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Lenders so identified shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender and no Lender shall be deemed to have relied, nor shall any Lender rely, on a Lender so 

  
 102

 
identified as a Co-Agent, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent or such similar designation in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 

SECTION 13. TERM OF AGREEMENT; MISCELLANEOUS 
 13.1 Term. 
 (a) This Agreement and the other Financing
Agreements shall become effective as of the date set forth on the first page hereof and shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on September 6, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”), unless sooner terminated pursuant to the
terms hereof. In addition, Borrowers may terminate this Agreement at any time upon five (5) days prior written notice to Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable) and Agent (at the direction of Required Lenders) shall, terminate this Agreement
at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing. Upon the Maturity Date or any other effective date of termination of the Financing Agreements, Borrowers shall pay to Agent all outstanding and unpaid Obligations and shall
furnish cash collateral to Agent (or at Agent’s option, a letter of credit issued for the account of Borrowers and at Borrowers’ expense, in form and substance satisfactory to the Required Lenders, by an issuer acceptable to the Required
Lenders and payable to Agent as beneficiary) in such amounts as Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) determines are reasonably necessary to secure Agent and Lenders from loss, cost, damage or expense, including reasonable
documented attorneys’ fees and expenses, in connection with any contingent Obligations, including checks or other payments provisionally credited to the Obligations and/or as to which Agent or any Lender has not yet received final and
indefeasible payment (and including any contingent liability of Agent to any bank at which deposit accounts of Borrowers and Guarantors are maintained under any Deposit Account Control Agreement). Such payments in respect of the Obligations and cash
collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in Federal funds to the Agent Payment Account or such other bank account of Agent, as Agent may, in its discretion, designate in writing to Administrative Borrower for such purpose. Interest shall be due
until and including the next Business Day, if the amounts so paid by Borrowers to the Agent Payment Account or other bank account designated by Agent are received in such bank account later than 2:00 p.m. 

(b) The termination of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements shall not relieve or discharge any Borrower
or Guarantor of its respective duties, obligations and covenants under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements until all Obligations (other than indemnities and contingent Obligations which have not yet accrued) have been fully and
finally discharged and paid, and Agent’s continuing security interest in the Collateral and the rights and remedies of Agent and Lenders hereunder, under the other Financing Agreements and applicable law, shall remain in effect until all such
Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and paid, other than the contingent Obligations for which Agent has received cash collateral, or at its option, a letter of credit, in accordance with Section 13.1(a) above. Accordingly, each
Borrower and Guarantor waives any rights it may have under the UCC to demand the filing of termination statements with respect to the Collateral and Agent shall not be required to send such termination statements to Borrowers or Guarantors, or to
file them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations (other than indemnities and contingent Obligations which have not yet accrued) paid and satisfied in full
in immediately available funds. 

  
 103

 13.2 Interpretative Provisions.

and shall not be deemed to be continuing if it has been so waived or cured. 
 (g) All references to the term
“good faith” used herein when applicable to Agent or any Lender shall mean, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the UCC, honesty in fact in the conduct or transaction concerned and observance of reasonable
commercial standards of fair dealing based on how a lender with similar rights providing a credit facility of the type set forth herein would act in similar circumstances at the time with the information then available to it. All references to the

delivered to the Lenders; provided, that, in the event of any change in GAAP after the date hereof that affects the covenants in Section 9 hereof, Administrative Borrower may by notice to Agent, or Agent may, and at the request of
Required Lenders shall, by notice to Administrative Borrower require that such covenants be calculated in accordance with GAAP as in effect, and as applied by Parent and its Subsidiaries, immediately before the applicable change in GAAP became
effective, until either the notice from the applicable party is withdrawn or such covenant is amended in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Borrower, Agent and the Required Lenders. Administrative Borrower shall deliver to Agent and upon
Agent’s (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) request, to each Lender at the same time as the delivery of any financial statements given in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6 hereof (i) a description in
reasonable detail of any material change in the application of accounting principles employed in the preparation of such financial statements from those applied in the most recently preceding monthly, quarterly or annual financial statements and
(ii) a reasonable estimate of the effect on the financial statements on account of such changes in application. Notwithstanding the above, all calculations of the financial covenants in Section 9 shall be made on a Pro Forma Basis.

Agreement, and (ii) references to any statute or regulation are to be construed as including all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing, recodifying, supplementing or interpreting the statute or regulation.

 (l) The captions and headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the
interpretation of this Agreement. 
 (m) Unless otherwise indicated herein, all references to time of day refer
to Eastern Standard Time or Eastern daylight saving time, as in effect in New York City on such day. For purposes of the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and
including” and the words “to” and “until” each means “to and including”; provided, that, with respect to a computation of fees or interest payable to Agent or any Lender, such period shall in any
event consist of at least one full day. 

  
 105

 (n) This Agreement and other Financing Agreements may use several different
limitations, tests or measurements to regulate the same or similar matters. All such limitations, tests and measurements are cumulative and shall each be performed in accordance with their terms. 

(o) This Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are the result of negotiations among and have been reviewed by
counsel to Agent and the other parties, and are the products of all parties. Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements shall not be construed against Agent or Lenders merely because of Agent’s or any Lender’s

 13.5 Confidentiality. 

(a) Agent and each Lender shall use all reasonable efforts to keep confidential, in accordance with its customary
procedures for handling confidential information and safe and sound lending practices, any non-public information supplied to it by any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement which is clearly and conspicuously marked as confidential at the time such
information is furnished by such Borrower to Agent, such Lender, provided, that, nothing contained herein shall limit the disclosure of any such information: (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation, subpoena or
court order, (ii) to bank examiners and other regulators, auditors and/or accountants of Agent or such Lender, (iii) to any Lender or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant) or to any Affiliate of any Lender so long as such
Lender, Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant), or Affiliate shall have been instructed to treat such information as confidential in accordance with this Section 13.5, or (iv) to counsel for Agent, any Lender or Participant (or
prospective Lender or Participant). 
 (b) In the event that Agent or any Lender receives a request or demand to
disclose any confidential information pursuant to any subpoena or court order, Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law or if permitted by applicable law, to the extent Agent or such Lender
determines in good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Agent or such Lender, Agent or such Lender will promptly notify Administrative Borrower of such request so that Administrative Borrower may seek a protective order or other
appropriate relief or remedy and (ii) if disclosure of such information is required, disclose such information and, subject to reimbursement by Borrowers of Agent’s or such Lender’s expenses, cooperate with Administrative Borrower in
the reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the disclosed information which Administrative Borrower so designates, to the extent permitted by applicable law or
if permitted by applicable law, to the extent Agent or such Lender determines in good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Agent or such Lender. 

(c) In no event shall this Section 13.5 or any other provision of this Agreement, any of the other Financing
Agreements or applicable law be deemed: (i) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that has been or is made public by any Borrower, Guarantor or any third party or otherwise becomes generally available to the public other than as a
result of a disclosure in violation hereof, (ii) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that was or becomes available to Agent or any Lender (or any Affiliate of any Lender) on a non-confidential basis from a person other than a
Borrower or Guarantor, (iii) to require Agent or any Lender to return any materials furnished by a Borrower or Guarantor to Agent or a Lender or prevent Agent or a Lender from responding to routine informational requests in accordance with the
Code of Ethics for the Exchange of Credit Information promulgated by The Robert Morris Associates or other applicable industry standards relating to the exchange of credit information, or (iv) to notify any Person of a request or demand to
disclose any confidential information pursuant to any request by any member of the Federal Reserve supervisory staff or otherwise, it being understood that such prior notice is not permitted by the Federal Reserve. The obligations of Agent and
Lenders under this Section 13.5 shall supersede and replace the obligations of Agent and Lenders under any confidentiality letter signed prior to the date hereof or any other arrangements concerning the confidentiality of information provided
by any Borrower or Guarantor to Agent or any Lender. In addition, Agent and Lenders may disclose information 

  
 108

 
relating to this credit facility to Gold Sheets and other publications, with such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications and that the
Lenders may otherwise use the corporate name and logo of Borrowers and Guarantors or deal terms in “tombstones” or other advertisements, public statements or marketing materials. 

13.6 Successors. This Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and any other document referred to herein or therein shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Agent, Secured Parties, Borrowers, Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign its rights under this Agreement, the other Financing
Agreements and any other document referred to herein or therein without the prior written consent of Agent and Lenders. Any such purported assignment without such express prior written consent shall be void. No Secured Party may assign its rights
and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent, except as provided in Section 13.7 below. The terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are for the purpose of defining the
relative rights and obligations of Borrowers, Guarantors, Agent and Secured Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and there shall be no third party beneficiaries of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of
the other Financing Agreements. 
 13.7 Assignments; Participations. 

(a) Each Lender may, with the prior written consent of Agent, assign all or, if less than all, a portion equal to at least

effect to such transfer or assignment, DDJ Lenders shall, in the aggregate, hold at least 50.1% (or such lesser percentage as agreed to by the Administrative Borrower in its reasonable discretion) of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the
Term Loan. 
 (b) Agent shall maintain a register of the names and addresses of Lenders, their Commitments and
the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Term Loan (the “Register”). Agent shall also maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and shall modify the Register to give effect to each
Assignment and Acceptance. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and any Borrowers, Guarantors, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Administrative Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

  
 109

 (c) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after

Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and thereunder and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance,
relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement.

genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements furnished pursuant hereto, (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial
condition of any Borrower, Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries or the performance or observance by any Borrower or Guarantor of any of the Obligations; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other
Financing Agreements, together with such other documents and information it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such assignee will, independently and without

Agreements, (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements as are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof and
thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Financing
Agreements are required to be performed by it as a Lender. Agent and Lenders may furnish any information concerning any Borrower or Guarantor in the possession of Agent or any Lender from time to time to assignees and Participants. 

(e) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and

Agreements shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and Borrowers, Guarantors, the other Lenders and Agent shall continue to deal solely and

Financing Agreements (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant relating

  
 110

 
thereto) and all amounts payable by any Borrower or Guarantor hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation. 

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its portion of the Term Loan hereunder to
a Federal Reserve Bank or another lender in support of borrowings made by such Lenders from such Federal Reserve Bank or another lender; provided, that, no such pledge shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (g) Borrowers and Guarantors shall assist Agent
or any Lender permitted to sell assignments or participations under this Section 13.7 in whatever manner reasonably necessary in order to enable or effect any such assignment or participation, including (but not limited to) the execution and
delivery of any and all agreements, notes and other documents and instruments as shall be requested and the delivery of informational materials, appraisals or other documents for, and the participation of relevant management in meetings and
conference calls with, potential Lenders or Participants. Borrowers shall certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy, in all material respects, of all descriptions of Borrowers and Guarantors and their affairs provided, prepared or reviewed
by any Borrower or Guarantor that are contained in any selling materials and all other information provided by it and included in such materials. 
 13.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, any supplements hereto or thereto, and any instruments or documents delivered or to be delivered in connection herewith or
therewith represents the entire agreement and understanding concerning the subject matter hereof and thereof between the parties hereto, and supersede all other prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, representations,
warranties, commitments, proposals, offers and contracts concerning the subject matter hereof, whether oral or written. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any schedule or exhibit hereto, the terms of this
Agreement shall govern.

who opens an account and/or enters into a business relationship with it, which information includes the name and address of Borrowers and Guarantors and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such person in accordance with the Act
and any other applicable law. Borrowers and Guarantors are hereby advised that the Term Loan is subject to satisfactory results of such verification. 
 13.10 Counterparts, Etc. This Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall have the same force and effect as the
delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement or any of such other Financing Agreements. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of any such agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall also
deliver an original executed 

  
 111

 
counterpart, but the failure to do so shall not affect the validity, enforceability or binding effect of such agreement. 
 13.11 Intercreditor Agreement. Until such time that the Revolving Obligations have been discharged, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the exercise of any right or remedy by
the Agent or the Lenders hereunder with respect to any Collateral and any requirement for Borrowers and Guarantors to deliver, endorse, remit, assign, notate or give control of any Collateral to or in favor of Agent or Lenders is subject to the

                     (the “Assignor”) and
                     (the “Assignee”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H: 
 WHEREAS, The Bank of New York Mellon, in its capacity as agent pursuant to the Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined) acting for and on behalf of the financial institutions which are parties thereto as
lenders (together with its successors and assigns, in such capacity, “Agent”), and the financial institutions which are parties to the Loan Agreement as lenders (individually, each a “Lender” and collectively,
“Lenders”) have entered into financing arrangements pursuant to which the Lenders have made a Term Loan (as defined in the Loan Agreement) to Latrobe Steel Company, a Pennsylvania corporation (“Latrobe”), Specialty Steel Supply,
Inc., a Texas corporation (“SSS”), and OH&R Special Steels Company, a Delaware corporation (“OH&R”, and together with Latrobe and SSS, each individually a “Borrower” and collectively, “Borrowers”) as
set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement, dated July 30, 2010, by and among Borrowers, certain of their affiliates, Agent and Lenders (as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated
or replaced, the “Loan Agreement”), and the other agreements, documents and instruments referred to therein or at any time executed and/or delivered in connection therewith or related thereto (all of the foregoing, together with the Loan
Agreement, as the same now exist or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced, being collectively referred to herein as the “Financing Agreements”); 

WHEREAS, Assignor wishes to assign to Assignee [part of the] [all] rights and obligations of Assignor with respect to the portion of the
Term Loan owned by the Assignor under the Loan Agreement in an amount equal to $             (the “Assigned Amount”) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
herein and Assignee wishes to accept assignment of such rights and to assume such obligations from Assignor on such terms and subject to such conditions; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

amount of the Term Loan will be $            . 
 (d) After giving effect to the assignment and assumption set forth herein, on the Effective Date Assignor’s principal amount of the Term Loan will be
$             (as such amount may be further reduced by any other assignments by Assignor on or after the date hereof). 

2. Payments. 
 (a) As consideration for the sale, assignment and transfer contemplated in Section 1 hereof, Assignee shall pay to Assignor on the Effective Date in immediately available funds an amount equal to
$            , representing Assignee’s Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of the Term Loan. 

(b) Assignee shall pay to Agent the processing fee in the amount specified in Section 13.7(a) of the Loan Agreement.

 3. Reallocation of Payments. Any interest, fees and other payments accrued to the Effective Date with respect to the
Assigned Amount of the Term Loan shall be for the account of Assignor. Any interest, fees and other payments accrued on and after the Effective Date with respect to the Assigned Amount of the Term Loan shall be for the account of Assignee. Each of
Assignor and Assignee agrees that it will hold in trust for the other party any interest, fees and other amounts which it may receive to which the other party is entitled pursuant to the preceding sentence and pay to the other party any such amounts
which it may receive promptly upon receipt.

such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit and legal decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Agreement.

law and treaties no tax will be required to be withheld by Assignee, Agent or Borrowers with respect to any payments to be made to Assignee hereunder or under any of the Financing Agreements, (b) agrees to furnish (if it is organized under the
laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any State thereof) to Agent and Borrowers prior to the time that Agent or Borrowers are required to make any payment of principal, interest or fees hereunder, duplicate executed originals of

“Borrower” and collectively, “Borrowers”. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Loan and Security Agreement, dated July 30, 2010, by and among The Bank of New

I hereby certify to you, on behalf of the Borrowers and the Guarantors, and without assuming any personal liability, pursuant to
Section 9.6 of the Loan Agreement as follows:

caused to be made under my supervision, a review in reasonable detail of the transactions and the financial condition of Borrowers and Guarantors, during the immediately preceding fiscal month.

knowledge of the existence and continuance on the date hereof, of any condition or event which constitutes a Default or an Event of Default, except as set forth on Schedule I attached hereto. Described on Schedule I attached hereto are the
exceptions, if any, to this Section 2 listing, in detail, the nature of the condition or event, the period during which it has existed and the action which any Borrower or Guarantor has taken, is taking, or proposes to take with respect to such
condition or event. 
 3. Based on the review described in Section 1 above, no Borrower or Guarantor has at any time during
or at the end of such fiscal month, except as specifically described on Schedule II attached hereto or as permitted by the Loan Agreement, done any of the following: 

(a) Changed its respective corporate name, or transacted business under any trade name, style, or fictitious name, other

 (c) Materially changed the terms upon which it sells goods (including sales on consignment) or provides
services in a manner that is materially adverse to the rights of the Lenders or the Agent under the Financing Agreements, nor has any vendor or trade supplier to any Borrower or Guarantor during or at the end of such period materially adversely
changed the terms upon which it supplies goods to any Borrower or Guarantor in each case, except as set forth on Schedule III attached hereto. 
 4. Attached hereto as Schedule IV are the calculations used in determining, as of the end of such fiscal month or fiscal quarter, as applicable, whether Borrowers and Guarantors are in compliance with the

Tax Returns 
  

	1.	The Internal Revenue Service notified the Company on January 5, 2010 that its federal income tax returns for the period ended September 30, 2007 have been

Litigation 
  

	1.	Douglas Hodczak, James Crossan, Thomas Magdic and Joseph Litvik v. Latrobe Specialty Steel Company, United States District Court for the Western District of
Pennsylvania Civil Action No. 08-649. 

 This is a purported collective (class) action case, alleging
age-based discrimination in employment by Latrobe. The claim arises from Latrobe’s termination of four employees for violating the Electronic Communications Policy. Latrobe filed dispositive motions, which were denied without prejudice as
premature. Latrobe has successfully obtained dismissal of plaintiff’s disparate impact claim through voluntary dismissal, leaving only a purported collective (class) action disparate treatment, age discrimination claim. To date, plaintiffs have
taken no steps to conditionally certify a class. Latrobe is currently engaging in discovery and continues to defend the matter aggressively.

RESULTED FROM THE ACTIVE OR PASSIVE OR THE SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF HICKS HOLDINGS OPERATING LLC OR ANY OTHER INDEMNIFIED PERSON IDENTIFIED HEREIN, SO LONG AS SUCH CLAIMS, LIABILITIES, LOSSES, DAMAGES OR EXPENSES ARE NOT A

MONITORING AND OVERSIGHT AGREEMENT 
 This MONITORING AND OVERSIGHT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into effective as of December 8, 2006, among Latrobe Steel Company, a Pennsylvania corporation (together
with its successors, the “Company”), Toolrock Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors, “Holdings” and together with the Company, the “Clients”) and Hicks Holdings
Operating LLC (together with its successors, “Monitor”). 
 WHEREAS, the Clients have requested that Monitor
render, and Monitor agrees to render, financial oversight and monitoring services to the Clients as requested from time to time by the board of directors of Holdings. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the services to be rendered by Monitor to the Clients, and to evidence the obligations of the Clients to Monitor and the mutual covenants herein contained, the Clients
hereby jointly and severally agree with Monitor as follows: 
 1. Retention. The Clients hereby acknowledge that they
have retained Monitor to, and Monitor acknowledges that, subject to reasonable advance notice in order to accommodate scheduling, Monitor will, provide financial oversight and monitoring services to the Clients as requested by the board of directors
of Holdings during the term of this Agreement. 
 2. Term. The term of this Agreement shall continue until the earlier to
occur of (i) the tenth anniversary of the date hereof or (ii) the date on which Hicks Holdings LLC or its successors and their respective affiliates shall cease to own beneficially, directly or indirectly, any securities of any of the
Clients or their respective successors. 

 3. Compensation. 

(a) As compensation for Monitor’s services to the Clients under this Agreement, the Clients hereby irrevocably agree, jointly and
severally, to pay to Monitor an annual fee of $500,000 (the “Monitoring Fee”), prorated on a daily basis for any partial calendar year during the term of this Agreement. The Monitoring Fee shall be payable in equal quarterly
installments on each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 during the term of this Agreement (each a “Payment Date”), beginning with the first Payment Date following the date hereof. All payments
shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account described on Exhibit A hereto (or such other account as Monitor may hereafter designate in writing). 

(b) Reference is made to that certain Monitoring and Oversight Agreement, of even date herewith, by and among Watermill Management
Company, LLC (“Watermill”), the Company and Holdings (the “Watermill M&O Agreement”). To the extent that the Clients are prohibited in any period from paying the entire Monitoring Fee due to Monitor and the entire
“Monitoring Fee” (as such term is defined in the Watermill M&O Agreement, together with the Monitoring Fee, the “Fees”) due to Watermill, the amounts of such Fees actually paid to each of Monitor and Watermill in such period
shall be reduced in proportion to the relative amounts otherwise due to each of them. The amount of any such reduction in Fees paid shall instead be paid in the next subsequent period in which the Clients are not prohibited from making such payment
(together with the amount of any Fees otherwise due in such subsequent period). 
 (c) All past due payments in respect of the
Monitoring Fee shall bear interest at the lesser of the highest rate of interest which may be charged under applicable law or the prime commercial lending rate per annum of JPMorgan Chase Bank or its successors (which rate is a reference rate and is
not necessarily its lowest or best rate of interest actually charged to any customer) (the “Prime Rate”) as in effect from time to time, plus five percent (5.0%), from the due date of such payment to and including the date on which
payment is made to Monitor in full, including such interest accrued thereon. 
 4. Reimbursement of Expenses. In addition
to the compensation to be paid pursuant to Section 3 hereof, the Clients agree, jointly and severally, to pay or reimburse Monitor for all “Reimbursable Expenses,” which shall consist of all reasonable disbursements and out-of-pocket
expenses (including, without limitation, costs of travel, postage, deliveries, fees and disbursements of counsel, communications, etc., but excluding allocated overhead) incurred by Monitor or its affiliates for the account of any Client or in
connection with the performance by Monitor of the services contemplated by Section 1 hereof. Promptly (but not more than 10 days) after request by or notice from Monitor, the applicable Client shall pay Monitor, by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to the account described on Exhibit A hereto (or such other account as Monitor may hereafter designate in writing), the Reimbursable Expenses for which Monitor has provided such Client invoices or reasonably detailed
descriptions. All past due payments in respect of the Reimbursable Expenses shall bear interest at the lesser of the highest rate of interest which may be charged under applicable law or the Prime Rate

  
 2 

 
plus 5.0% from the Payment Date to and including the date on which such Reimbursable Expenses plus accrued interest thereon are fully paid to Monitor. 

5. Indemnification. The Clients jointly and severally shall indemnify and hold harmless each of Monitor, its affiliates, and their
respective directors, officers, controlling persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), if any, agents and employees (Monitor,
its affiliates, and such other specified persons being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Persons,” and individually as an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses,
damages and expenses incurred by any Indemnified Person (including those arising out of an Indemnified Person’s negligence and reasonable fees and disbursements of the respective Indemnified Person’s counsel) which (A) are related to
or arise out of (i) actions taken or omitted to be taken (including, without limitation, any untrue statements made or any statements omitted to be made) by any of the Clients or (ii) actions taken or omitted to be taken by an Indemnified
Person with any Client’s consent or in conformity with any Client’s instructions or any Client’s actions or omissions or (B) are otherwise related to or arise out of Monitor’s engagement, and will reimburse each Indemnified
Person for all reasonable costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of any Indemnified Person’s counsel, as they are incurred, in connection with investigating, preparing for, defending or appealing
any action, formal or informal claim, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding, whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation, caused by or arising out of or in connection with Monitor’s acting pursuant to Monitor’s
engagement, whether or not any Indemnified Person is named as a party thereto and whether or not any liability results therefrom. None of the Clients will, however, be responsible for any claims, liabilities, losses, damages or expenses pursuant to
clause (B) of the preceding sentence to the extent they have resulted from Monitor’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Clients also agree that neither Monitor nor any other Indemnified Person shall have any liability
to any Client for or in connection with such engagement except for any such liability for claims, liabilities, losses, damages or expenses incurred by any Client to the extent they have resulted from Monitor’s bad faith, gross negligence or
willful misconduct. The Clients further agree that neither of them will, without the prior written consent of Monitor, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in
respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such claim, action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional
release of Monitor and each other Indemnified Person hereunder from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding. EACH CLIENT HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL BE APPLICABLE TO ANY CLAIMS, LIABILITIES,
LOSSES, DAMAGES OR EXPENSES THAT HAVE RESULTED FROM OR ARE ALLEGED TO HAVE RESULTED FROM THE ACTIVE OR PASSIVE OR THE SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF MONITOR OR ANY OTHER INDEMNIFIED PERSON, SO LONG AS SUCH CLAIMS, LIABILITIES,
LOSSES, DAMAGES OR EXPENSES 

  
 3 

 
ARE NOT A RESULT OF BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF MONITOR OR SUCH OTHER INDEMNIFIED PERSON, AS APPLICABLE. 
 The foregoing right to indemnity shall be in addition to any rights that Monitor and/or any other Indemnified Person may have at common law or otherwise and shall remain in full force and effect following
the completion or any termination of the engagement. Each Client hereby consents to personal jurisdiction and to service and venue in any court in which any claim which is subject to this Agreement is brought against Monitor or any other Indemnified
Person. 
 It is understood that, in connection with Monitor’s engagement, Monitor may also be engaged to act for a Client
or Clients in one or more additional capacities, and that the terms of this engagement or any such additional engagement(s) may be embodied in one or more separate written agreements. This indemnification shall apply to the engagement specified in
the first paragraph hereof as well as to any such additional engagement(s) (whether written or oral) and any modification of said engagement or such additional engagement(s) and shall remain in full force and effect following the completion or
termination of said engagement or such additional engagements. 
 Each of the Clients further understands and agrees that if
Monitor is asked to furnish any Client a financial opinion letter or act for any Client in any other formal capacity, such further action may be subject to a separate agreement containing provisions and terms to be mutually agreed upon. 

6. Confidential Information. Monitor agrees not to divulge any confidential information, secret processes or trade secrets
disclosed by any Client or any of its subsidiaries to Monitor in connection with the performance of the services hereunder, unless such Client consents to the divulging thereof or such information, secret processes or trade secrets are publicly
available or otherwise available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 6 to Monitor without restriction or breach of any confidentiality agreement or unless required by any governmental authority or in response to any valid legal
process. 
 7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of
the State of Texas, excluding any choice-of- law provisions thereof. Each of the parties hereby (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States Federal District Court for the Northern District of Texas, sitting in
Dallas County, Texas, the United States of America, in the event such court has jurisdiction or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, to any district court sitting in Dallas County, Texas, the United States of America, for the purpose of any
suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including any claims by any Indemnified Persons for indemnity pursuant to Section 5 hereof, (b) waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action, or
proceeding, any claim that (i) it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such court or of any other court to which proceedings in such court may be appealed, (ii) such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient
forum, or (iii) the venue of such suit, action, or proceeding is improper and (c) expressly waives any requirement for the posting of a bond by the party bringing 

  
 4 

 
such suit, action, or proceeding. Each of the parties consents to process being served in any such suit, action, or proceeding by mailing, certified mail, return receipt requested, a copy thereof
to such party at the address in effect for notices hereunder, and agrees that such services shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing in this Section 7 shall affect or limit any right to serve process
in any other manner permitted by law. 
 8. Assignment. This Agreement and all provisions contained herein shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned
(other than with respect to the rights of Monitor, which may be assigned to any one or more of its principals or affiliates) by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties. 

9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and the signature of any party to any counterpart shall be deemed a signature to, and may be appended to, any other counterpart. 

10. Other Understandings. All discussions, understanding and agreements heretofore made between any of the parties hereto with
respect to the subject matter hereof are merged in this Agreement, which alone fully and completely expresses the Agreement of the parties hereto. All calculations of Monitoring Fee and Reimbursable Expenses shall be made by Monitor and, in the
absence of mathematical error, shall be presumed correct.
