 THE CREDITS 
 Section 2.01. Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not at any time result in (A) such Lender’s Exposure
exceeding its Commitment or (B) the Total Outstanding Amount exceeding the Total Commitment then in effect. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow
Loans. 
 (b) The Commitments of the Lenders are several, i.e., the failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by
it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder, and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as and when required hereunder. 

Section 2.02. Revolving Loans. (a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same
Interest Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments, as the Borrower may request (subject to Section 2.14) in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any
domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan. Any exercise of such option shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation to repay such Loan as provided herein. 

(b) At the beginning of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, the aggregate amount of such Borrowing shall be an integral
multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000. When each Base Rate Borrowing is made, the aggregate amount of such Borrowing shall be an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000; provided that a Base Rate Borrowing
may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Commitments. Borrowings of more than one Interest Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of four
(4) Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Borrower will not be entitled

Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing; 

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 

  
 - 27 -

 (v) the location
and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.06. 
 If no election as to the Interest Type of a Borrowing is specified, the requested Borrowing will be a Base Rate Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to a requested Eurodollar Borrowing is
specified, the Borrower will be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly after it receives a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender as to the
details of such Borrowing Request and the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made pursuant thereto. 
 Section 2.04.
Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period, in each case in an amount that
(i) is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000, (ii) will not result in the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Loans exceeding $15,000,000 and (iii) will not result in the Total
Outstanding Amount exceeding the Total Commitment then in effect; provided that the Swingline Lender will not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the
terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. 
 (b) To request a
Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or email transmission), not later than 3:00 p.m., Prevailing Eastern Time, on the proposed date of borrowing. Each such notice
shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Borrower.
The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the Borrower’s general deposit account with the Swingline Lender by 5:00 p.m., Prevailing Eastern Time, on the requested date of such
Swingline Loan. Each Swingline Loan shall bear interest at the rate specified in Section 2.13(c). 
 (c) The Borrower
unconditionally promises to pay to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the thirtieth day after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that, unless the Swingline
Lender otherwise expressly agrees in writing, on each day that a Borrowing of Loans is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans that are outstanding on such day. 

  
 - 28 -

 (d) The Borrower will have the right at any time to prepay any Swingline Loan in full or in
part in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. The Borrower shall notify the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent, by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or email transmission), of the date and
amount of any such prepayment not later than noon, Prevailing Eastern Time, on the date of prepayment. Each such prepayment shall be made directly to the Swingline Lender and shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount prepaid.

 (e) The Swingline Lender may, by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 p.m., Prevailing Eastern
Time, on any Business Day, require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Lenders will
participate. Promptly after it receives such notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender as to the details thereof and such Lender’s Percentage of such aggregate amount of Swingline Loans. Each Lender agrees, upon receipt of such
notification, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Percentage of such aggregate amount of Swingline Loans. Each Lender’s obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant
to this subsection is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the Commitments, and each payment by a Lender to
acquire such participations shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this subsection by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as
provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06(b) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders under this subsection), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay
to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in Swingline Loans acquired pursuant to this subsection, and thereafter payments in respect of such
Swingline Loans shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or any other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after the
Swingline Lender receives the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly remit any such amounts received by it to the Lenders that shall have made payments pursuant to
this subsection and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this subsection will not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof. 

Section 2.05. Optional Increase in Commitments. At any time prior to the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the
Revolving Availability Termination Date, if no Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or would result after giving effect thereto), the Borrower, may, if it so elects, increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments (each such increase to
be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000), either by designating a financial institution not theretofore a Lender to become a Lender (such designation to be effective only with the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and only if such financial institution accepts a Commitment in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of
$5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000), or by agreeing with an existing Lender that such Lender’s Commitment shall be increased. Upon execution and delivery by the Borrower and such Lender or other financial institution of an instrument (a
“Commitment Acceptance”) in form reasonably 

  
 - 29 -

 
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, such existing Lender shall have a Commitment as therein set forth or such other financial institution shall become a Lender with a Commitment as
therein set forth and with all the rights and obligations of a Lender with such a Commitment hereunder, and any such other financial institution shall be deemed to be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents without
any amendment hereto or thereto and without the consent of any other party (other than those required above in this Section 2.05); provided: 
 (a) that the Borrower shall provide prompt notice of such increase to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly notify the Lenders; 

(b) that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a copy of the Commitment Acceptance; 

(c) that the amount of such increase, together with all other increases in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this
Section 2.05 since the date of this Agreement, does not exceed $50,000,000; 
 (d) that, before and after giving effect to
such increase, the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in Article 3 of this Agreement shall be true and correct; and 
 (e) that the Administrative Agent shall have received such evidence (including an opinion of Borrower’s counsel) as it may reasonably request to confirm the Borrower’s due authorization of the
transactions contemplated by this Section 2.05 and the validity and enforceability of the obligations of the Borrower resulting therefrom. 
 On the date of any such increase, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that the conditions set forth in clauses (a) through (e) above have
been satisfied. 
 Upon any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.05: 

(x) within five (5) Business Days, in the case of any Base Rate Borrowings then outstanding, and at the end of the
then current Interest Period with respect thereto, in the case of any Eurodollar Borrowings then outstanding, the Borrower shall prepay such Borrowing in its entirety and, to the extent the Borrower elects to do so and subject to the conditions
specified in Article 4, the Borrower shall reborrow Loans from the Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments after giving effect to such increase, until such time as all outstanding Loans are held by the Lenders in such proportion; and

 (y) each existing Lender whose Commitment has not increased pursuant to this Section 2.05 (each, a
“Non-increasing Lender”) shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have sold to each Lender whose Commitment has been assumed or increased under this Section 2.05 (each, an “Increased Commitment
Lender”), and each Increased Commitment Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have purchased from each Non-Increasing Lender, a participation (on the terms specified

  
 - 30 -

 
in Section 2.04(e) respectively) in each Swingline Loan in which such Non-Increasing Lender has acquired a participation in an amount equal to such Increased Commitment Lender’s
Percentage thereof, until such time as all Swingline Exposures are held by the Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments after giving effect to such increase. 
 Section 2.06. Funding of Loans. (a) Each Lender making a Loan hereunder shall wire the principal amount thereof in immediately available funds, by 1:00 p.m., Prevailing Eastern Time, on
the proposed date of such Loan, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the
amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in Cleveland, Ohio and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Loans made to finance the
repayment of a Swingline Loan as provided in Section 2.04(c) will be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Swingline Lender. 
 (b) Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from a Lender before the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative
Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.06(a) and may, in reliance on such assumption, make a corresponding amount available to the Borrower. In such
event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the day such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate
and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such Lender pays such
amount to the Administrative Agent, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 

Section 2.07. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing of Loans initially shall be of the Interest Type specified in the
applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Interest Type or, in
the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, to continue such Borrowing for one or more additional Interest Periods, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in
which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. 

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof by telephone by the time that
a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting that a Borrowing of the Interest Type resulting from such election be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election
shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, telecopy or email transmission to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. 

  
 - 31 -

 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election shall specify the following information in
compliance with Section 2.02 and subsection (e) of this Section: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such
Interest Election applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses
(iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of
the election made pursuant to such Interest Election, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the
resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting
Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of “Interest Period”. 

If an Interest Election requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, the Borrower will be deemed to have
selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d) Promptly after it receives an Interest Election, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender as to the details thereof and such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) if the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing before the end of an Interest Period applicable thereto, such Borrowing (unless repaid) will be
converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of such Interest Period. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so
notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) each Eurodollar Borrowing (unless repaid) will be converted to a
Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto on the date of such notice. 
 Section 2.08.
Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments will terminate on the Revolving Availability Termination Date. 
 (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate the Commitments in whole or from time to time reduce the Commitments in part; provided that (i) the amount of each reduction (as distinct from
termination in whole) of the Commitments shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000, (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayment
of Loans pursuant to Section 2.10, the total Exposures would exceed the total Commitments and (iii) the Borrower shall not reduce (as distinct from terminate in whole) the Commitments if, after giving effect thereto, the outstanding
Commitments would be less than $50,000,000. 

  
 - 32 -

 (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or
reduce the Commitments under Section 2.08(b), at least five (5) Business Days before the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly after it receives any such notice,
the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section will be irrevocable; provided that any such notice terminating the Commitments may state that it is
conditioned on the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or before the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any
termination or reduction of the Commitments will be permanent and will be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. 
 Section 2.09. Payment at Maturity; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent on the Maturity Date, for the account of each Lender, the
then unpaid principal amount of such Lender’s Loans. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice
an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time. 

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

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and
deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such
promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory
note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 
 Section 2.10. Optional and Mandatory
Prepayments. (a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower will have the right at any time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, but subject to the provisions of this Section and Section 2.16;
provided that the aggregate amount of each such prepayment shall be an integral multiple of $50,000 and not less than $250,000. 

  
 - 33 -

 (b) Mandatory Prepayments. If at any date the Total Outstanding Amount exceeds the
lesser of (i) the Total Commitment and (ii) the aggregate Collateral Value of the Eligible Collateral then held by the Administrative Agent, in each case determined as of such date, then not later than the next succeeding Business Day, the
Borrower shall be required to either (A) deposit with the Administrative Agent additional Eligible Collateral having a Collateral Value equal to such excess or (B) prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such excess, in either case until
the Total Outstanding Amount does not exceed the lesser of the Total Commitment and the aggregate Collateral Value of the Eligible Collateral then held by the Administrative Agent. 

(c) Allocation of Prepayments. Before any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall select the
Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(f). 
 (d) Partial Prepayments. Each partial prepayment of a Borrowing shall be in an amount such that the remaining unpaid amount of such Borrowing would be permitted under Section 2.02(b) for a
Borrowing of the same Interest Type, except as needed to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each partial prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in such Borrowing. 

(e) Accrued Interest. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by
Section 2.11 or Section 2.13. 
 (f) Notice of Prepayments. Except with respect to a prepayment under
Section 2.10(b), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or email transmission) of any prepayment of any Borrowing hereunder (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than noon,
Prevailing Eastern Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment and (ii) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than noon, Prevailing Eastern Time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable
and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a
notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08(c), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in
accordance with Section 2.08(c). Promptly after it receives any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. 
 Section 2.11. [Reserved].  
 Section 2.12. Fees.
(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee, which shall accrue during the Revolving Availability Period at the Applicable Rate on the average daily amount of the Commitment of such
Lender, whether used or unused, during the period from and including the Effective Date to the date on 

  
 - 34 -

 which such Commitment terminates. Such facility fee shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of
each calendar quarter in respect of the quarter then ending and on the earlier date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated or assigned in whole. 
 (b) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

(c) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (to the extent applicable, for its own account, for the account of the Arranger and
for the account of each Lender) on the Effective Date such fees as are specified in the fee letter between the Borrower and the Arranger dated March 8, 2013. 
 (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and will be payable for the actual number of days elapsed and shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available
funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of facility fees and utilization fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 

Section 2.13. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each Base Rate Borrowing shall bear interest for each day at the
Alternate Base Rate, plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest for each
Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (c)
Each Swingline Loan shall bear interest for each day at the rate per annum equal to (i) the rate determined by the Swingline Lender to be its cost of funds in respect of such Swingline Loan, plus (ii) plus the Applicable Rate for
Eurodollar Borrowings then in effect. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if any principal of or interest on any Loan
or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to
(A) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, two percent (2%) plus the rate that otherwise would be applicable to such Loan as provided in the provisions of this Section or (B) in the case of any other amount, two percent
(2%) plus the Alternate Base Rate, plus the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans; and (ii) upon notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and continuing for so long as an
Event of Default exists (but without duplication of the interest accruing pursuant to clause (i), above), interest on the Loans shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) plus the rate
that otherwise would be applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding subsections of this Section. 
 (e) Interest accrued
on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.13(d) shall be payable on demand, (ii) upon
any repayment of any Loan 

  
 - 35 -

 
(except a prepayment of a Base Rate Loan before the end of the Revolving Availability Period), interest accrued on the principal amount repaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment and
(iii) upon any conversion of a Eurodollar Loan before the end of the current Interest Period therefor, interest accrued on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(f) All interest hereunder will be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the
Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate will be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case will be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including
the first day but excluding the last day). Each applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and its determination thereof will be conclusive absent manifest error. 

Section 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If before the beginning of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

 (a) Reuters is no longer quoting rates for BBA LIBOR (as defined in the definition of LIBO Rate) and there is
no substitute or successor thereto as provided in Section 1.01, and if deposits in dollars in the applicable amounts are not being offered by KeyBank National Association in the London interbank market for such Interest Period; or 

(b) Lenders having 50% or more of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be included in such Borrowing advise the
Administrative Agent that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, after giving effect to Section 2.15, will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period;

 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable
thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation
of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing will be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing will be made as a Base Rate Borrowing. 
 Section 2.15. Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. (a) If any Change in Law shall: 
 (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any
such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or 
 (ii) subject any Lender to any Tax of any
kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of any payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.17 and the imposition of,
or any change to, the rate of any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender); or 

  
 - 36 -

 (iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other
condition affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans) or to increase the cost to such Lender or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender hereunder
(whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it for such additional cost incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing
the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s
holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time
following receipt of the certificate referred to in subsection (c) of this Section, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.

 (c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate it or its holding company, as the
case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be rebuttably presumed to be correct. Each such certificate shall contain a representation and warranty on the part of the
Lender to the effect that such Lender has complied with its obligations pursuant to Section 2.20 hereof in an effort to eliminate or reduce such amount. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
10 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Failure or delay by any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section will not
constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower will not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased cost or reduction incurred more than 180 days before it notifies
the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased cost or reduction and of its intention to claim compensation therefor. However, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then the 180-day
period referred to above will be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 (e) Within four (4) months
following the date such certificate is furnished claiming compensation by any such Lender (an “Affected Lender”, which term shall also include a Lender making a demand under Section 2.17), the Borrower may replace the Affected
Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.15. 

  
 - 37 -

 Section 2.16. Break Funding Payments. If (a) any principal of any
Eurodollar Loan is repaid on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) any Eurodollar Loan is converted on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period
applicable thereto, (c) the Borrower fails to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(f) and is revoked
in accordance therewith), or (d) any Eurodollar Loan is assigned on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then the Borrower shall
compensate each Lender for its loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost and expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of
(i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the end
of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have begun on the date of such failure), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such
principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the beginning of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any
Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due
on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 Section 2.17. Taxes. (a) All payments by the
Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that, if the Borrower shall be required to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such
payments, then (i) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, and (iii) to the
extent that the deduction or withholding is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable will be increased as necessary so that, after all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section) are made, each relevant Lender Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. 

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law.

 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender Party, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full
amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Lender Party with respect to any payment by or obligation of the Borrower under the Loan Documents (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to
amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (unless such penalties, interest or expenses arise by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Lender), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment delivered to the Borrower by a Lender Party on its
own behalf, or by the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Lender Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. If the Borrower has indemnified any Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.17(c),

  
 - 38 -

 
such Lender Party shall take such steps as the Borrower shall reasonably request (at the Borrower’s expense) to assist the Borrower in recovering the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and any
penalties or interest attributable thereto; provided that no Lender Party shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 2.17(c) unless, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender Party, such action (i) would not
subject such Lender Party to any unreimbursed cost or expense and (ii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender Party. 
 (d) As soon as practicable after the Borrower pays any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy
of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e) The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times
prescribed by applicable Law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit payments to be made hereunder or under any other Loan
Document without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign Lender shall to the extent requested by the Borrower (i) furnish either (a) two (2) accurate and complete
originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN (or successor form) (b) two (2) accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI (or successor form) or (c) two (2) accurate and
complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8IMY and all requisite supporting documentation, certifying, in each case, to such Foreign Lender’s legal entitlement to an exemption or reduction from U.S. federal withholding
Tax with respect to all interest payments hereunder, and (ii) to the extent it may lawfully do so at such times, upon reasonable request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide a new Form W-8BEN (or successor form), Form W-8ECI (or
successor form) or Form W-8IMY (or successor form) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form to reconfirm any complete exemption from, or any entitlement to a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding Tax with respect to any
interest payment hereunder; provided that any Foreign Lender that is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code and is claiming the “portfolio interest exemption” under
Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code shall also furnish a “Non-Bank Certificate” in the form from time to time specified by, as applicable, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower if it is furnishing a Form W-8BEN. If a
payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in
Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation
prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.
Solely for purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement; provided that a Foreign Lender’s breach of this Section 2.17(e) shall affect
the rights only of the breaching Foreign Lender, and not the rights of any other Foreign Lender, under Section 2.17(a). 

  
 - 39 -

 (f) The Administrative Agent and each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall furnish two
accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9 (or successor form). 
 (g) The provisions of
this Section 2.17 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and repayment of the Loans. 
 (h) Within four
(4) months following the date the Administrative Agent or a Lender shall make a written demand for Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.17, the Borrower may replace the Affected Lender pursuant to the provisions of
Section 9.15. 
 Section 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-Offs. (a) The
Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under the Loan Documents (whether of principal, interest or fees, or amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17(c) or otherwise) before the time expressly required under the
relevant Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, before noon, Prevailing Eastern Time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amount received after such time on
any day may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices
at 127 Public Square, 6th Floor, Cleveland, Ohio 44114 (or such other address as may from time to time be designated by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower in writing), except payments to be made directly to the Swingline Lender as expressly
provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The
Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly after receipt thereof. Unless otherwise specified herein, if any payment under any Loan Document shall be
due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, if such payment accrues interest, interest thereon will be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan
Document shall be made in dollars. 
 (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative
Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal then due hereunder, ratably among the Lenders in accordance with the amounts of principal then due. 

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or
interest on any of its Loans or any of its participations in Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater 

  
 - 40 -

 
proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such
greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in
accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment
giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this subsection shall not apply to (A) any payment made
by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the
assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection shall apply). The Borrower consents to the
foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to
such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 (d)
Unless, before the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of one or more Lender Parties hereunder, the Administrative Agent receives from the Borrower notice that the Borrower will not make such payment, the
Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance on such assumption, distribute to each relevant Lender Party the amount due to it. In such event, if the Borrower has
not in fact made such payment, each Lender Party severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender Party with interest thereon, for each day from and including the day such amount is
distributed to it to but excluding the day it repays the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

 (e) If any Lender fails to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(e), 2.06(b), 2.18(d) or
9.03(c), the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations
under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 Section 2.19. Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 

(i) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this
Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders. 

  
 - 41 -

 (ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by
the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 7 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.09 shall
be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to
the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such
Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and
released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, including the Swingline Lender, as
a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default
exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its
obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (1) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect
of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (2) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Article 4 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all
Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Swingline Exposure are held by the Lenders pro rata in
accordance with their Percentages without giving effect to Section 2.19(a)(iv), below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall
be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (iii)
(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any facility fee under Section 2.12(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have
been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 
 (B) With respect to any facility fee under
Section 2.12(a) not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) above, the Borrower shall (1) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with
respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Swingline Exposure that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (2) pay to the Swingline Lender the amount of any such fee otherwise
payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (3) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. 

  
 - 42 -

 (iv) All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in
Swingline Exposure shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) the conditions set
forth in Article 4 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are
satisfied at such time), and (B) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any
claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such
reallocation. 
 (v) If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be
effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure. 

(b) If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender,
the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice, and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of
outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance
with their Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.19(a) above), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by
or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will
constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 (c) New Swingline Loans. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting
Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan. 
 Section 2.20. Lender’s Obligation to Mitigate . If any
Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall
use all commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or eliminate the amount of such compensation or additional amount, including without limitation, by designating a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or by assigning
its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates; provided that no Lender shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 2.20 unless, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such
designation or assignment or other action (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and
(iii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

 ARTICLE 3 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 The Borrower represents and warrants to the
Lender Parties that: 
 Section 3.01. Organization; Powers. The Borrower and each of its Material Subsidiaries is
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where failures to do so, in the aggregate,
could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required. 

Section 3.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Financing Transactions to be entered into by the Borrower are within its
corporate, limited liability company or similar company powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company (or similar) action and, if required, stockholder or other equity holder action. This Agreement has
been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which the Borrower is to be a party, when executed and delivered by the Borrower, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Borrower, in each case enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable Debtor Relief Laws and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at Law. 

Section 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Financing Transactions (a) do not require any consent or
approval of, registration or filing with, or other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (b) will not violate any applicable Law or the charter, by-laws, limited
liability company agreement or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any order of any Governmental Authority or any exchange under which the Parent’s Equity Interests are traded, (c) will not violate or result in a default
under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any of its properties, or give rise to a right thereunder to require the Borrower to make any payment, where such default or payment reasonably can be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any property of the Borrower (except for Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents). 

Section 3.04. Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Change. Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.04 hereto: 

(a) The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders (i) the audited Consolidated balance sheet of the Parent as of
December 31, 2012 and the related Consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the Fiscal Year then ended, reported on by Ernst & Young LLP, independent public accountants, and (ii) the unaudited Consolidated balance sheet
of the Parent as 

  
 - 44 -

 
of March 31, 2013 and the related Consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the Fiscal Quarter then ended and for the portion of the Fiscal Year then ended, all certified by the
Parent’s chief financial officer. Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the Consolidated financial position of the Parent as of such dates and its Consolidated results of operations and cash flows for such periods
in accordance with GAAP, subject to normal year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the case of the statements referred to in clause (ii) above and show all material Debt and other liabilities, direct or contingent, of the Parent
and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof. None of the Parent or any of its Material Subsidiaries has on the date hereof any material contingent liabilities, material liabilities for Taxes, material unusual forward or long-term commitments or
material unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments, except as referred to or reflected or provided for in said balance sheets as at said dates. 
 (b) Since December 31, 2012 (or, after the Effective Date, since the last day of the Fiscal Year in respect of which the Borrower has delivered audited Consolidated financial statements of the Parent
pursuant to Section 5.01(a)), there has been no material adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, financial condition, prospects, contingent liabilities or material agreements of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as
a whole. 
 (c) The Borrower has heretofore furnished to each of the Lenders the annual Statutory Statement of the Borrower and
each other Insurance Subsidiary of the Parent for the Fiscal Year thereof ended December 31, 2012, and the quarterly Statutory Statement of the Borrower and each other Insurance Subsidiary of the Parent for the partial year ended March 31,
2013, in each case as filed with the Applicable Insurance Regulatory Authority. All such Statutory Statements present fairly in all material respects the financial condition of the Borrower and each other Insurance Subsidiary of the Parent as at,
and the results of operations for, the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2012, and partial year ended March 31, 2013, in accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Applicable Insurance Regulatory Authority.
Since December 31, 2012, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, operations, business or prospects taken as a whole of any Material Insurance Subsidiary of the Parent from that set forth in its respective Statutory
Statement as at December 31, 2012. 
 Section 3.05. Insurance Licenses. Schedule 3.05 lists, as of the
Effective Date, all of the jurisdictions in which the Borrower and each other Material Insurance Subsidiary holds active licenses (including, without limitation, licenses or certificates of authority from Applicable Insurance Regulatory
Authorities), permits or authorizations to transact insurance and reinsurance business or to act as an insurance agent or broker (collectively, the “Licenses”). The Borrower and each other Material Insurance Subsidiary is in
compliance in all material respects with each License held by it. No License (to the extent material) is the subject of a proceeding for suspension or revocation or any similar proceedings, there is no sustainable basis for such a suspension or
revocation, and to the knowledge of the Borrower no such suspension or revocation has been threatened by any Applicable Insurance Regulatory Authority except in any such case where such proceedings, suspension or revocation would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 - 45 -

 Section 3.06. Borrower’s Subsidiaries. As of the Effective Date, the
Borrower has no Subsidiaries, other than those set forth on Schedule 3.06. Schedule 3.06 accurately identifies the jurisdiction under the Laws of which each such Subsidiary is formed and whether such Subsidiary is or is not, as the case may be, a
Material Subsidiary as of the Effective Date. 
 Section 3.07. Litigation. Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.07,
there is no action, suit, arbitration proceeding or other proceeding, inquiry or investigation, at Law or in equity, before or by any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against the Parent or any Material Subsidiary of the Parent or of
which the Parent or any Material Subsidiary of the Parent has otherwise received notice or which, to the knowledge of the Parent, is threatened against the Parent or any Material Subsidiary of the Parent (i) as to which, but after giving effect
to any applicable insurance claim reserve, there is a possibility of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that involves any of the Loan Documents or the
Financing Transactions or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
 Section 3.08. Compliance with Laws and Agreements; Foreign
Asset Control Regulations. (a) The Borrower is in compliance with all Laws applicable to it or its property (including (i) all Environmental Laws, (ii) ERISA, (iii) applicable Laws dealing with intellectual property, and
(iv) the Fair Labor Standards Act and other applicable Law dealing with such matters) and all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding on it or its property, except where failures to do so, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) No Default has occurred and is continuing. 

(c) Without limiting the generality of paragraph (a) above, the Borrower and each Material Insurance Subsidiary is in compliance, in
all material respects, with each Applicable Insurance Code and other requirements applicable to it of its Applicable Insurance Regulatory Authority. 
 Section 3.09. Investment Company Status. The Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 Section 3.10. Taxes. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries are
members of an affiliated group of corporations filing consolidated returns for Federal income Tax purposes, of which the Parent is the “common parent” (within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Internal Revenue Code) of such group.
The Parent, the Borrower and its Material Subsidiaries have filed all Federal income Tax returns and all other material Tax returns that are required to be filed by them and have paid all Taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any
assessment received by the Parent, the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and its Material Subsidiaries in respect of Taxes and other governmental charges are, in the opinion
of the Borrower, adequate. Neither the Parent nor the Borrower has given or been requested to give a waiver of the statute of limitations relating to the payment of any Federal, state, local and foreign Taxes or other impositions.

 Section 3.11. Debt Agreements and Liens. 

(a) Part A of Schedule 3.11 is a complete and correct list of each credit agreement, loan agreement, indenture, purchase agreement,
guarantee, letter of credit or other arrangement providing for or otherwise relating to any Debt or any extension of credit (or commitment for any extension of credit) to, or Guarantee by, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, outstanding on the
date hereof the aggregate principal or face amount of which equals or exceeds (or may equal or exceed) $5,000,000, and the aggregate principal or face amount outstanding or that may become outstanding under each such arrangement is correctly
described in Part A of said Schedule 3.11. 
 (b) Part B of Schedule 3.11 is a complete and correct list of each Lien securing
Debt of any Person outstanding on the date hereof the aggregate principal or face amount of which equals or exceeds (or may equal or exceed) $5,000,000 and covering any property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and the aggregate Debt
secured (or that may be secured) by each such Lien and the Property covered by each such Lien is correctly described in Part B of said Schedule 3.11. 
 Section 3.12. Environmental Matters. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has obtained all environmental, health and safety permits, licenses and other authorizations required under all
Environmental Laws to carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except to the extent failure to have any such permit, license or authorization would not (either individually or in the aggregate) reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of such permits, licenses and authorizations is in full force and effect, and each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in compliance with the terms and conditions thereof, and is also in compliance with all
other limitations, restrictions, conditions, standards, prohibitions, requirements, obligations, schedules and timetables contained in any applicable Environmental Law or in any regulation, code, plan, order, decree, judgment, injunction, notice or
demand letter issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder, except to the extent failure to comply therewith would not (either individually or in the aggregate) have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 3.13. Capitalization. One hundred percent (100%) of issued and outstanding Equity Interests of the Borrower are
owned by the Parent. As of the date hereof and as of the Effective Date, (i) there are no outstanding Equity Rights with respect to the Borrower (other than such Equity Rights as may be owned by the Parent) and (ii) there are no
outstanding obligations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem, or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, nor are there any outstanding obligations of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries to make payments to any Person, such as “phantom stock” payments, where the amount thereof is calculated with reference to the fair market value or equity value of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. 

Section 3.14. No Reliance. The Borrower has made, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, its own decision to enter into this Agreement and has made (and will continue to make), independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender,
and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate (or shall deem appropriate at the time), its own legal, credit and Tax analysis of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

  
 - 47 -

 Section 3.15. ERISA. Compliance by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries with the
provisions hereof and Loans contemplated hereby will not involve any Prohibited Transaction within the meaning of ERISA or section 4975 of the Code or any breach of any other comparable foreign Law. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries,
(i) has fulfilled all obligations under minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Plan that is not a Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, (ii) has satisfied all respective contribution obligations in
respect of each Multiemployer Plan and each Multiple Employer Plan, (iii) is in compliance in all respects with all other applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Plan, and (iv) has not incurred any liability under
the Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Plan, any Multiemployer Plan, any Multiple Employer Plan or any trust established thereunder, except (with respect to any matter specified in any of the above clauses), for such matters as, individually or
in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Plan or trust created thereunder has been terminated, and there have been no ERISA Events, with respect to any Plan or trust created thereunder or with respect
to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, which termination or ERISA Event would reasonably be expected to give rise to a liability of the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate in respect thereof which, individually or in the aggregate, would
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.15 hereto, neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is at the date hereof, or has been at any time within the five years preceding the date hereof, an
employer required to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, or a “contributing sponsor” (as such term is defined in section 4001 of ERISA) in any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan. Each Plan that is
intended to be so qualified under section 401(a) of the Code in fact is so qualified, except for any failure of qualification which individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the
Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has any liability (contingent or otherwise) for the payment of post-retirement health or life insurance benefits, except (A) as has been disclosed prior to the date hereof to the Lenders in writing or on any
financial statements of the Borrower or the Parent or any ERISA Affiliate provided to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or (B) for such contingent liabilities that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 3.16. Regulation U. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is
engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U), or extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or
carrying any such margin stock. No proceeds of any Loan will be used directly or indirectly to purchase or carry any margin stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock. 

Section 3.17. Disclosure. The Borrower has disclosed to the Lenders all agreements, instruments and corporate or other
restrictions to which it is subject, and all other matters known to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. All of the reports, financial statements, certificates and other
written information (other than projected financial information) that have been made available by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Arranger, the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or delivered hereunder or thereunder, are complete and correct in all material respects and do not contain any untrue statement 

  
 - 48 -

 of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained
therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good
faith based on assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time. 
 Section 3.18. Solvency. Immediately after the
Financing Transactions to occur on the Effective Date are consummated and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of each Loan made on the Effective Date and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of each Loan made on
any other date, (a) the fair value of the assets of the Borrower, at a fair valuation, will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; (b) the Borrower will be able to pay its debts and liabilities,
subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (c) the Borrower will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now
conducted and proposed to be conducted after the Effective Date. 
 Section 3.19. Anti-Terrorism Requirements.

 (a) Neither the Borrower nor any Affiliate of the Borrower, is in violation in any material respect of any Anti-Terrorism Law
or engages in or conspires to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law. 

(b) Neither the Borrower, nor any Affiliate of the Borrower or their respective agents acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection
with the Loans or other transactions hereunder, is any of the following (each a “Blocked Person”): 

(i) a Person that is listed in the annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order
No. 13224; 
 (ii) a Person owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, any Person that is listed
in the annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order No. 13224; 
 (iii) a
Person with which any Lender is prohibited from dealing or otherwise engaging in any transaction by any Anti-Terrorism Law; 
 (iv) a Person that commits, threatens or conspires to commit or supports “terrorism” as defined in the Executive Order No. 13224; 

(v) a Person that is named as a “specially designated national” on the most current list published by the U.S.
Treasury Department Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”) at its official website or any replacement website or other replacement official publication of such list, or

benefiting in any capacity in connection with the Loans or other transactions hereunder, (i) conducts any business or engages in making or receiving any contribution of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any Blocked Person, or
(ii) deals in, or otherwise engages in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to the Executive Order No. 13224. 
 (d) The Borrower is and will remain in full compliance with all Laws applicable to it ensuring that no person who owns a controlling interest in or otherwise controls the Borrower is or shall be
(A) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Person List maintained by OFAC, and/or any other similar lists maintained by OFAC pursuant to any authorizing Law or (B) a person designated under Section 1(b), (c) or

in agreements relating to the sale of a Subsidiary pending such sale, provided that such restrictions and conditions apply only to the Subsidiary that is to be sold and such sale is permitted hereunder, (iv) clause (a) of this
Section shall not apply to restrictions or conditions imposed by any agreement relating to secured Debt permitted by this Agreement if such restrictions or conditions apply only to the property securing such Debt and (v) clause (a) of this
Section shall not apply to customary provisions in leases and other contracts restricting the assignment thereof so long as such provisions apply only to the property that is the subject of such lease or contract.

consent of the Administrative Agent (with the approval of the Required Lenders, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), amend, modify, supplement or waive any of its rights under the Intercompany Pooling Arrangement if, after giving effect
to such modification, supplement or waiver (and any sale or transfer of assets and assignment and assumption of liabilities effected pursuant thereto), (i) the Borrower and its Insurance Subsidiaries would have, in the aggregate, less than a

 ARTICLE 8 
 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

Section 8.01. Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender Party irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and
authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender Party hereby agrees to the provisions set forth in Section 6.7 of the Pledge and Security Agreement of even date herewith between the Borrower, as pledgor, and
the Administrative Agent, as secured party, as if fully restated herein. 
 Section 8.02. Rights and Powers as a Lender.
The Administrative Agent shall, in its capacity as a Lender, have the same rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and
its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. 

Section 8.03. Limited Duties and Responsibilities. (a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations
except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred
and is continuing, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly

  
 - 68 -

 
contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (iii) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, or be liable for any failure to disclose, any
information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken
by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder
or in connection therewith, (C) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (D) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan
Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (E) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent. 
 (b) To the extent that the Borrower is authorized to withdraw or otherwise obtain the release of
collateral upon and subject to the terms and conditions of Section 4.1 of the Pledge and Security Agreement of even date herewith between the Borrower, as pledgor, and the Administrative Agent, as secured party, and executed and delivered
pursuant to Section 4.01(k) or an equivalent provision of any other Security Document, the Administrative Agent is authorized to release such collateral without the consent or approval of any Lender. 

Section 8.04. Authority to Rely on Certain Writings, Statements and Advice. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
rely on, and shall not incur any liability for relying on, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The
Administrative Agent also may rely on any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel
(who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

Section 8.05. Sub-Agents and Related Parties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its
rights and powers by or through one or more sub-agents appointed by it. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory
provisions of the preceding Sections of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to activities in connection with the syndication of the credit
facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent hereunder. 

  
 - 69 -

 Section 8.06. Resignation; Successor Agent. (a) Subject to the appointment
and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this Section, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time (and, upon the request of the Required Lenders, will so resign) by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (which shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent; provided that the consent the Borrower shall not be
required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring
Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank or
financial institution, or an Affiliate of any such bank or financial institution. 
 (b) If the Person serving as Administrative
Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person, remove such Person as the Administrative
Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor to the Administrative Agent. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as
shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. 

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders hereunder, the
retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or
through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon acceptance of its appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor, and without duplication, unless otherwise
agreed by the Borrower and such successor Administrative Agent. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect
for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as an Administrative
Agent hereunder. 

  
 - 70 -

 Section 8.07. Credit Decisions by Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender
also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions
in taking or not taking action under or based on this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 Section 8.08. Agent’s Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account fees in the amounts and at the times previously agreed upon by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent. 
 Section 8.09 Arranger; Other Titles, Etc. None of the Lead Arranger, the Sole Book Runner,
any syndication agent or any documentation agent in their capacities as such shall have any duties or responsibilities or incur any liability under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents. 

Section 8.10 No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each of the Lenders acknowledges and
agrees that neither such Lender nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or
other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other
anti-terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Borrower, its Affiliates or its agents, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or
contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification procedures, (2) any record keeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other
Laws. 
 ARTICLE 9 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 9.01. Notices. Except in the case of notices
and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone, all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail
or sent by telecopy, as follows: 
 (a) if to the Borrower, to it at 518 East Broad Street, Columbus, Ohio 43215, Attention of
General Counsel (Facsimile No. (614) 719-0740); 
 (b) if to the Administrative Agent or to the Swingline Lender, to KeyBank
National Association, Agency Services, 127 Public Square, Cleveland, Ohio 44114, Attention of Kathy Koenig, Senior Service Officer (Facsimile No. (216) 370-6113); and 

  
 - 71 -

 (c) if to any other Lender, to it at its address (or facsimile number) set forth in its
Administrative Questionnaire. 
 Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications
hereunder by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement will be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.

 Section 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by any Lender Party in exercising any right or
power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Lender Parties under the Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No
waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by subsection (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Lender Party had notice
or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
 (b) No Loan Document or provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except,
in the case of this Agreement, by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the parties thereto
with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall: 
 (i) increase the
Commitment of any Lender without its written consent; 
 (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce
the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fee payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender Party directly affected thereby; 
 (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan, or the required date of any mandatory payment of principal (including without limitation pursuant to Section 2.10(b), or any date for the payment of any
interest or fee payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender Party directly affected thereby; 

(iv) change the definition of “Percentage” or change Section 2.18(b) or 2.18(c) in a manner that would
alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; 
 (v) change any provision of this Section or the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of
Lenders required to take any action thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; 

  
 - 72 -

 (vi) increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments by an amount in excess
of $50,000,000, or amend Section 2.05(c) to permit increases in the aggregate Commitments in excess of an aggregate amount equal to $50,000,000, in each case during the term of this Agreement, without the written consent of the Administrative
Agent and each Lender (it being understood that an increase in the Commitment of any Lender is subject to clause (i) above); or 
 (vii) except for releases permitted under Section 8.03(b), release any material collateral under any Security Document without the written consent of each Lender; and 

provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Swingline
Lender without its prior written consent; and provided further that neither a reduction or termination of Commitments pursuant to Section 2.08, nor an increase in Commitments pursuant to Section 2.05, constitutes an amendment,
waiver or modification for purposes of this Section 9.02. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation
to, from time to time promulgate revised, replacement Schedules 2.01 (which, upon such promulgation, absent manifest error, shall become Schedule 2.01 hereto) to reflect changes in the parties constituting the Lenders and their respective
Commitments pursuant to Assignments, Section 2.08 and Section 2.05, in each instance without the necessity of the agreement of the Borrower and the Required Lenders. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Lender does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of such Lender and that
has been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower may replace such non-consenting Lender in accordance with Section 9.15; provided that such amendment, waiver, consent or release can be effected as a result of the assignment
contemplated by such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be made pursuant to this paragraph). 
 Section 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Arranger, the Administrative
Agent and their respective Affiliates, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Squire Sanders (US) LLP, special counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit
facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and
(ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Lender Party, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Lender Party, in connection with the replacement of any Lender pursuant to Section 9.15, the
enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents (including its rights under this Section) or the Loans, including all such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in
respect of the Loans. 

  
 - 73 -

 (b) The Borrower shall indemnify each of the Lender Parties and their respective Related
Parties (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel
for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Financing Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom,
(iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or
proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that (i) such indemnity shall not be available to any Indemnitee to
the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct; (ii) such indemnity shall not be available to any Indemnitee for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses arising out of a proceeding in which such Indemnitee and the Borrower are adverse parties to the extent that
the Borrower prevails on the merits, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (it being understood that nothing in this Agreement shall preclude a claim or suit by the Borrower against any Indemnitee for such Indemnitee’s failure to
perform any of its obligations to the Borrower under the Loan Documents); (iii) the Borrower shall not, in connection with any such proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction and in the absence of conflicts of interest, be
liable for the fees and expenses of more than one law firm at any one time for the Indemnitees (which law firm shall be selected (x) by mutual agreement of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower or (y) if no such agreement has been
reached following the Administrative Agent’s good faith consultation with the Borrower with respect thereto, by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion); (iv) each Indemnitee shall give the Borrower (x) prompt notice of any
such action brought against such Indemnitee in connection with a claim for which it is entitled to indemnity under this Section and (y) an opportunity to consult from time to time with such Indemnitee regarding defensive measures and potential
settlement; and (v) the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay the amount of any settlement entered into without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender
under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable
unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based on its share of the sum of the total Exposures and unused Commitments at the time.

  
 - 74 -

 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and it 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 or any
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Financing Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
 (e) All
amounts due under this Section shall be payable within five Business Days after written demand therefor. 
 Section 9.04.
Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement,
expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (except the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly provided herein, the Related Parties of the Lender Parties) any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Any Lender may assign to one or more
assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of any Commitment it has at the time and any Loans at the time owing to it); provided that: 

(i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate, each of the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its Swingline Exposure, and the Swingline Lender) must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consents
shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after
having received notice thereof; 
 (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 
 (iii) unless each of the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date on which the relevant Assignment is delivered to the Administrative
Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, and the remaining Commitment or Loans, if any, of the assigning Lender shall not be less than $5,000,000; provided that this clause (iii) shall not apply to an assignment to a Lender or a Lender
Affiliate or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans; 

(iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment, together with a
processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that only one such fee shall be due in respect of a simultaneous assignment to more than one Lender Affiliate; and 

  
 - 75 -

 (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent a completed Administrative Questionnaire; 
 and provided further that any consent of the Borrower
otherwise required under this subsection shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to subsection (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall,
to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender
shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection
shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (e) of this Section. 

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in Cleveland, Ohio
a copy of each Assignment delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, their respective Commitments and the principal amounts of the Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time
to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and the parties hereto may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender for all
purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any party hereto at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed
Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), any processing and recordation fee referred to in, and payable pursuant to, subsection (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment
required by subsection (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been
recorded in the Register as provided in this subsection. 
 (e) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or any other
Lender Party, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the
Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations
and (iii) the Borrower and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a
Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan

Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver
described in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (f) of this Section, each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15,
2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 9.09 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. 
 (f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold
to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of
Section 2.17 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender. 

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure
obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or
assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, (i) no such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or any
agent or representative thereof, (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) a natural
Person; and (ii) no such assignment shall be made, or participation sold, by a Lender except in accordance with this Section 9.04. 
 (i) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set
forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of
participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting
Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (i) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each
other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Swingline Loans in accordance with its Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a
Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

 Section 9.05. USA PATRIOT Act. (a) Each Lender and the Administrative Agent
(for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and
Affiliates, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries and Affiliates in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. 
 (b) Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender
that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA PATRIOT Act and the applicable regulations because it is both
(i) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United States or foreign country, and (ii) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository
institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of
the USA PATRIOT Act and the applicable regulations: (1) within ten (10) days after the Effective Date, and (2) as such other times as are required under the USA PATRIOT Act. 

Section 9.06. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower in the Loan Documents
and in certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and
the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Lender Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any
credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any principal of or accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable hereunder is outstanding and unpaid or any Commitment has not expired or
terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article 8 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the Financing Transactions, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination
of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 
 Section 9.07. Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any
and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement (i) will become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have signed this
Agreement and received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto and (ii) thereafter will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

 Section 9.08. Severability. If any provision of any Loan Document is invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction then, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, (i) such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent (but only to the extent) of such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability, (ii) the other provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Lender Parties in order to carry out the intentions of the parties
thereto as nearly as may be possible and (iii) the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any such provision in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 Section 9.09. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each
of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency)
at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such
obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the
event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.19 and,
pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the
Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Debt and other obligations hereunder owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section
are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or Affiliates may have. Each Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application;
provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 

Section 9.10. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in
accordance with and governed by the Law of the State of Ohio. 
 (b) Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits,
for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Ohio sitting in Cuyahoga County and of the United States District Court of the Northern District of Ohio, and any relevant appellate court, in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and
determined in such Ohio state 

  
 - 79 -

 
court or, to the extent permitted by Law, in such Federal court. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Nothing in any Loan Document shall affect any right that any Lender Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document against the
Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c) Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to
the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document in any court referred to in subsection
(b) of this Section. Each party hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court. 

(d) Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in any
Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law. 

Section 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT
MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 Section 9.12. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the
construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
 Section 9.13. Confidentiality.
Each Lender Party agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants,
legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent
requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or rules of any stock exchange or similar self-regulated entity or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this
Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document or the enforcement of any right thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any actual or prospective 

  
 - 80 -

 
assignee of or Participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction
relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information either (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes
available to any Lender Party on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its
business, other than any such information that is available to any Lender Party on a nonconfidential basis before disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such
information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, effective from the
date of commencement of discussions concerning the transactions contemplated hereby, the parties hereto and each of their employees, representatives or other agents may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the Tax
treatment and Tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other Tax analyses) that have been provided to them relating to such Tax treatment and Tax structure. 

Section 9.14. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate
applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable Law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum
Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged or otherwise received by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable Law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect
thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the
interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such Lender shall have received such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal
Funds Effective Rate to the date of payment. 
 Section 9.15. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if
any circumstance exists under Section 9.02 that gives the Borrower the right to replace a non-consenting Lender as a party hereto, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent,
require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.04), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the
related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that: 

(a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 9.04(b)(iv);

 (b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans,
accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any 

  
 - 81 -

 
amounts under Section 2.12(a) and any Swingline Exposure funded by such Lender pursuant to Section 2.04 hereof) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and
accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 
 (c) in the case of any such
assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and 

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws. 
 A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such
assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Credit Agreement in respect of a portion of its Commitment thereunder in an amount equal to $                     (the “Assigned
Amount”), together with a corresponding portion of each of its outstanding Loans and its Swingline Exposure, and the Assignee proposes to accept such assignment and assume the corresponding obligations of the Assignor under the Credit

 2.3 Pledgor’s Rights. 

(a) Voting Rights. 
 (i) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Pledgor in writing that its rights under this Section 2.3 are being
suspended during the continuance of such Event of Default, the Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise all voting and other rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral; provided, however, that the no vote shall be cast, right exercised or other
action taken that would be in any material respect inconsistent with, or would reasonably be expected to result in an Event of Default. 
 (ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, after the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Pledgor of the suspension of its rights under this Section 2.3
during the continuation of such Event of Default, then, all voting and other rights of the Pledgor with respect to the Pledged Collateral that the Pledgor would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise
shall cease, and all such rights shall be vested in the Administrative Agent which shall thereupon have the sole right to exercise such rights while such Event of Default is continuing. 

(b) Distributions. 
 (i) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest, and other distributions (other than distributions
of principal) paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged Collateral. 
 (ii) Upon the occurrence and during
the continuation of an Event of Default, all rights of the Pledgor to the dividends, interest, principal and other distributions shall cease and all such rights shall be vested in the Administrative Agent which shall thereupon have the sole right to
receive such distributions while such Event of Default is continuing. 
 (c) Turnover. All distributions and other
amounts which are received by the Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other funds of the Pledgor and shall

other Secured Party or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, affiliates or agents be obligated in any manner to (a) perform any of the obligations of the Pledgor under or pursuant to any agreement to which the Pledgor is a
party; (b) make any payment or inquire as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment or performance with respect to any Pledged Collateral; (c) present or file any claim or collect the payment of any amounts or take any action to enforce

expense, to the extent reasonable, from time to time to take any action and to execute any instrument which may be reasonably necessary to enforce its rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, authority to receive, endorse and
collect all instruments made payable to the Pledgor representing any distribution, interest payment or other payment in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof to be paid over to the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 2.3(b) and to give full discharge for the same. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
in this Section 2.5(a) to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any of the rights as attorney-in-fact provided for in this Section 2.5(a) unless and until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
and the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Pledgor of the occurrence of such Event of Default.

hereby ratifies all that said attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof, in each case pursuant to the powers granted hereunder. The Pledgor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have no fiduciary
duties to the Pledgor in acting pursuant to this power-of-attorney and the Pledgor hereby waives any claims or rights of a beneficiary of a fiduciary relationship hereunder. 
 2.6 Administrative Agent May Perform. If the Pledgor fails to perform any agreement contained herein after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default for which the
Administrative Agent has provided notice to the Pledgor, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Administrative Agent, including the reasonable
fees and expenses of its counsel, incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Loan Parties under Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement.

(a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Pledged Collateral, whether or not the Administrative Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters
or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Pledged Collateral.

 2.8 Security Interest Absolute. All rights and security interests of the
Administrative Agent purported to be granted hereunder, and all obligations of the Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: 
 (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

collateral, or any release, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure from, any guaranty, for all or any of the Secured Obligations;

other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Pledgor or any third-party pledgor (other than the defense of payment).

extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which the Pledgor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Pledgor agrees that at least ten
(10) days’ notice to the Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of
Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be
made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Pledgor hereby waives any claims against the Administrative Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Pledged Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was
less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree so long as such process is commercially
reasonable. 
 (b) The Pledgor recognizes that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative
Agent may elect to sell all or any part of the Pledged Collateral to one or more purchasers in privately negotiated transactions in which the purchasers will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Collateral for their own
account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable than those obtainable through a public sale (including, without
limitation, a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), and the Pledgor agrees that the Administrative Agent has no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay sale
of any Pledged Collateral to permit the issuer thereof to register the Pledged Collateral for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. If the Administrative Agent determines to exercise its right to
sell any or all of the Pledged Collateral, upon written request the Pledgor shall, from time to time, furnish to the Administrative Agent all such information as is necessary in order to determine the number of shares and other instruments included
in the Pledged Collateral which may be sold by the Administrative Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and rules of the Securities Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

 (c) Without limiting the generality of paragraphs (a) and (b) above, upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent is entitled (i) to direct KBCM or any other Securities Intermediary to transfer all of the Pledged Collateral to an account in the Administrative Agent’s sole name with the Pledgor hereby
agreeing never to contest or challenge such direction of the Administrative Agent with KBCM or such other Securities Intermediary but to raise any dispute with respect to such direction only with the Administrative Agent; (ii) to direct any
party liable for any payment under any of the Pledged Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; (iii) to ask or demand for,
collect, receive payment of and receipt for any and all property, funds, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any of the Pledged Collateral; (iv) to sign and endorse the Pledgor’s name
to any instrument, statement, certificate, assignment, or other documentation with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral; (v) to commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent
jurisdiction to collect or 

  
 11 

 take possession of or control over the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof and to enforce any other right
in respect of any Pledged Collateral; (vi) to defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against the Pledgor with respect to any Pledged Collateral; (vii) to settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action or proceeding described in
clause (vi) above and, in connection therewith, to give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; (viii) generally, to sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with
any of the Pledged Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and to do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and the Pledgor’s expense, at any time, or from time
to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Pledged Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and
effectively as the Pledgor might do; and (ix) thereupon apply the Pledged Collateral to the Secured Obligations. 
 5.3
Purchase of Pledged Collateral. To the extent permitted by Law, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders (or certain of them) may be a purchaser of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof or any right or interest therein at any
sale thereof, whether pursuant to foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise hereunder and the Administrative Agent may apply the purchase price to the payment of the Secured Obligations. Any purchaser of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral
shall, upon any such purchase, acquire good title to the Pledged Collateral so purchased, free of the security interests created by this Agreement. 
 5.4 Application of Proceeds. The Administrative Agent shall apply any proceeds from time to time held by it and the net proceeds of any collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or
sale with respect to the Pledged Collateral in accordance with Section 7.02 of the Credit Agreement. 
 SECTION 6.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
 6.1 Notices. Unless otherwise specifically herein provided, all notices required or
permitted under the terms and provisions hereof shall be in writing and any such notice shall be given in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement (and, in the case of notices to the Pledgor, addressed to the
Pledgor’s address as set forth in Section 3.4). 
 6.2 Continuing Security Interest. This Agreement
shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral until the release thereof pursuant to Section 6.9. 

  
 12 

 6.3 Reinstatement. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as
the case may be, if at any time any amount received by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder or pursuant hereto is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party upon the
occurrence of any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership, liquidation or other similar arrangement affecting the Pledgor or any Subsidiary thereof or upon the appointment of any
intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar official for, the Pledgor or any Subsidiary thereof or any substantial part of the assets of the Pledgor or any Subsidiary thereof, or upon the entry of an order by any court avoiding the payment
of such amount, or otherwise (including pursuant to a settlement entered into by a Secured Party in its discretion), all as though such payments had not been made. 
 6.4 Independent Security. The security provided for in this Agreement shall be in addition to and shall be independent of every other security which the Administrative Agent or the other Secured
Parties may at any time hold for any of the Secured Obligations hereby secured, whether or not under the Security Documents. The execution of any other Security Document shall not modify or supersede the security interest or any rights or
obligations contained in this Agreement and shall not in any way affect, impair or invalidate the effectiveness and validity of this Agreement or any term or condition hereof. The Pledgor hereby waives its right to plead or claim in any court that
the execution of any other Security Document is a cause for extinguishing, invalidating, impairing or modifying the effectiveness and validity of this Agreement or any term or condition contained herein. The Administrative Agent shall be at liberty
to accept further security from the Pledgor or from any third party and/or release such security without notifying the Pledgor and without affecting in any way the obligations of the Pledgor under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall
determine if any security conferred upon the Secured Parties under the Security Documents shall be enforced by the Administrative Agent, as well as the sequence of securities to be so enforced. 

6.5 Amendments. No waiver, amendment, modification or termination of any provision of this Agreement, or consent to any departure
by the Pledgor therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the prior written consent of each of the parties hereto, and none of the Pledged Collateral shall be released without the written consent of the Administrative Agent upon and subject
to the provisions of Section 4.1 hereof. Any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. 
 6.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Pledgor its successors, transferees and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured
Parties and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. The Pledgor shall not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the written consent of the Administrative Agent. 

  
 13 

 6.7 Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent has been appointed to act as the
Administrative Agent hereunder by the Secured Parties. The Administrative Agent, in its capacity as the agent for the Secured Parties shall be obligated, and shall have the sole and exclusive right hereunder, to make demands, to give notices, to
exercise or refrain from exercising any rights or remedies, and to take or refrain from taking any action on behalf of the Secured Parties (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of Pledged Collateral in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement), in accordance with this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In furtherance of the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.7, each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits
hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Pledged Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.7 The Administrative Agent may resign in accordance with Section 8.06 of the Credit Agreement. After the Administrative
Agent’s resignation thereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Administrative Agent hereunder.
The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Secured Parties in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise any
such powers. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or
agents shall be responsible to the Pledgor for any act or failure to act hereunder. 
 6.8 Survival. All agreements,
statements, representations and warranties made by the Pledgor herein or in any certificate or other instrument delivered by the Pledgor or on its behalf under this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Administrative Agent
and the other Secured Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties or made on their behalf. 

6.9 Continuing Security Interest; Transfer of Loans. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged
Collateral and shall remain in full force and effect until the date on which all of the Commitments are terminated and all Loans and other Secured Obligations (other than unasserted indemnity obligations) have been paid in full. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, but subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document, any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any Loans held by it to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with
all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Lenders herein or otherwise. Upon the date on which all of the Commitments are terminated and all Loans and other Secured Obligations (other than unasserted indemnity obligations) have been paid in
full, the security interest granted hereby shall terminate hereunder and of record and all rights to the Pledged Collateral shall revert to the Pledgor. Upon any such termination, or any release of Pledged Collateral pursuant to Section 4.1
above, the Administrative Agent shall, at the Pledgor’s expense, execute and deliver to the Pledgor such documents as the Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination (including UCC termination statements on form UCC-3) and
will duly assign, transfer and deliver to the Pledgor any Pledged Collateral as may be in the possession or control of the Administrative Agent. 

  
 14 

 6.10 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the
Administrative Agent in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder and no course of dealing between any of the parties hereto shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege
hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies
which the Administrative Agent would otherwise have. 
 6.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. 

6.12 Headings Descriptive. The headings of the several sections and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience
only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement. 
 6.13
Severability. In case any provision contained in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of
such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 6.14
Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF OHIO (WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF LAWS OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF
OHIO (OTHER THAN ANY MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF THE UCC RELATING TO THE LAW GOVERNING PERFECTION AND THE EFFECT OF PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTERESTS GRANTED THEREUNDER).

may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents against the Pledgor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (b) The Pledgor
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, in any Ohio State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Cuyahoga County. The Pledgor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (c) The Pledgor irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 6.1. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to
serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
 (d) The Pledgor shall maintain an agent to receive service of process at
all times until the Termination Date as provided in Section 9.10(e) of the Credit Agreement. 
 6.16 Waiver of Jury

THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT, THE SECURED PARTIES AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.16. 
 6.17 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any other
agreement executed in connection herewith (including the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents), is intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement as to the matters covered hereby and is intended as a complete and exclusive
statement of the terms and conditions thereof. Accordingly, this Agreement may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten or oral agreements between the parties.

  
 16 

 6.18 Waiver of Defenses. 

(a) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Pledgor hereby waives: (i) any defense of a statute of limitations;
(ii) any defense based on the legal disability of any Person or any discharge or limitation of the liability of any Person to the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties, whether consensual or arising by operation of law;
(iii) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind (other than as expressly provided by the Loan Documents); and (iv) any defense based upon or arising out of any defense which any Person may have to the payment or performance of
any part of the Secured Obligations (other than the defense of payment). 
 (b) The Pledgor hereby waives, to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law (i) all rights under any law limiting remedies, including recovery of a deficiency, under an obligation secured by a mortgage or deed of trust on real property if the real property is sold under a power of sale
contained in the mortgage, and all defenses based on any loss whether as a result of any such sale or otherwise, of the Pledgor’s right to recover any amount from any Person, whether by right of subrogation or otherwise; (ii) all rights
under any law to require the Administrative Agent to pursue the Pledgor or any other Person (including the Pledgor under any other obligation of the Pledgor), any security which the Administrative Agent may hold, or any other remedy before
proceeding against the Pledgor; (iii) all rights of reimbursement or subrogation, all rights to enforce any remedy that the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties may have against any Person, and all rights to participate in any security
held by the Administrative Agent, in each case until the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the covenants of the Loan Documents have been performed in full; (iv) all rights to require the Administrative Agent to give
any notices of any kind, including, without limitation, notices of acceptance, nonpayment, nonperformance, protest, dishonor, default, delinquency or acceleration, or to make any presentments, demands or protests, except as set forth herein or
expressly provided in the Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; (v) all rights to assert the bankruptcy or insolvency of any Person as a defense hereunder or as the basis for rescission hereof; (vi) all rights under any law
purporting to reduce the Pledgor’s obligations hereunder if the Secured Obligations are reduced other than as a result of payment in cash of such Secured Obligations including, without limitation, any reduction based upon any Secured
Party’s error or omission in the administration of the Secured Obligations; (vii) all defenses based on the incapacity, disability or lack of authority of the Pledgor or any other Person, the repudiation of the Loan Documents by the
Pledgor or any Person, the failure by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to enforce any claim against any Person, or the unenforceability in whole or in part of any Loan Documents; (viii) all suretyship and guarantor’s
defenses generally including, without limitation, defenses based upon collateral impairment or any statute or rule of law providing that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must not exceed or be more burdensome than that of the principal;
(ix) all rights to insist upon, plead or in any manner whatever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, marshaling of assets, redemption or similar law, or exemption, whether now or at any time
hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance by the Pledgor of its obligations under, or the enforcement by the Administrative Agent of, this Agreement; (x) any requirement on the part of the Administrative
Agent or the holder of any obligations under the Loan Documents to mitigate the damages resulting from any default; and (xi) except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, all rights of notice and hearing of any kind prior to the exercise
of rights by the Administrative Agent upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default to repossess with judicial process or to replevy, attach or levy upon the Pledged Collateral. To the extent permitted by law, the Pledgor
waives the posting of any bond 

  
 17 

 
otherwise required of the Administrative Agent in connection with any judicial process or proceeding to obtain possession of, replevy, attach, or levy upon the Pledged Collateral, to enforce any
judgment or other security for the Secured Obligations, to enforce any judgment or other court order entered in favor of the Administrative Agent, or to enforce by specific performance, temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent
injunction, this Agreement or any other agreement or document between the Pledgor, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties. The Pledgor further agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the
Administrative Agent may elect to nonjudicially or judicially foreclose against any real or personal property security it holds for the Secured Obligations or any part thereof, or to exercise any other remedy against any Person, any security or any
guarantor, even if the effect of that action is to deprive the Pledgor of the right to collect reimbursement from any Person for any sums paid by the Pledgor to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party. 

(c) If the Administrative Agent may, under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving the
Administrative Agent a Lien upon any Collateral, whether owned by the Pledgor or by any other Person, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, the Administrative Agent may, at its sole option, determine which of its
remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If, in the exercise of any of such rights and remedies, the Administrative Agent shall forfeit any of its rights or
remedies, including any right to enter a deficiency judgment against the Pledgor or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the
Pledgor hereby consents to such action by the Administrative Agent and waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by the Administrative Agent shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation, indemnification or
reimbursement which the Pledgor might otherwise have had but for such action by the Administrative Agent or the terms herein. Any election of remedies which results in the denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent to seek a
deficiency judgment against any of the parties to any of the Loan Documents shall not, to the extent permitted by applicable law, impair the Pledgor’s obligation hereunder. In the event the Administrative Agent shall bid at any foreclosure or
trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may bid all or less than the amount of the Secured Obligations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the amount of the successful bid
at any such sale, whether the Administrative Agent or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Pledged Collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance
of the Secured Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Secured Obligations. 
 6.19 Subrogation,
Etc. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Pledgor or the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of the remedies provided under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, until the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly
paid in full, the Pledgor shall have no claim (as defined in 11 U.S.C. § 101(5)) of subrogation to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent against any Person, the Pledged Collateral or any guaranty held by the Administrative Agent
for the satisfaction of any of the Secured Obligations, nor shall the Pledgor have any claims (as defined in 11 U.S.C. § 101(5)) for reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration or contribution from any Person in respect of payments made by the
Pledgor hereunder. 

  
 18 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any amount shall be paid to the Pledgor on account of such subrogation,
reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration or contribution rights at any time before the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the Pledgor in trust for the Administrative Agent segregated from other funds of the
Pledgor, and shall be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by the Pledgor (duly endorsed by the Pledgor to the Administrative Agent if required) to be applied against the Secured Obligations in such amounts and in such
order as the Administrative Agent may elect, or as directed by the Administrative Agent. 
 6.20 Administrative Agent.
The rights, powers, benefits, privileges, immunities and indemnities given to the Administrative Agent and set forth in the Credit Agreement are expressly incorporated herein by reference thereto and shall survive the termination of this Agreement
and the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent.

 Re: Account No. 20905354 maintained by State Auto Property & Casualty Insurance Company
(“Pledgor”) with KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. (“Securities Intermediary”) has established a securities account, Account
No. 20905354, in the name of Pledgor (the “Account”). The Account itself, as well as the financial assets which comprise the Account, all investment property, and financial assets now or hereafter held in the Account,
including any proceeds and income thereof, are hereinafter referred to as the “Pledged Assets.” 

Notice is hereby given to Securities Intermediary that Pledgor has granted a security interest in the Account and the Pledged Assets to
KeyBank National Association, in its capacity as administrative agent (“Agent”), pursuant to that certain Pledge and Security Agreement of even date herewith (as modified, supplemented and replaced from time to time, the
“Pledge Agreement”) and pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement also of even date herewith (as modified, supplemented and replaced from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”). Agent is
administrative agent for the “Lenders” and the other “Secured Creditors” (as each such term is defined in the Pledge Agreement) upon and subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. The
security interest granted by Pledgor to Agent pursuant to the Pledge Agreement is granted to secure the “Secured Obligations” (as defined in the Pledge Agreement).

 The purpose of this agreement is to establish control over
the Account and the Pledged Assets in Agent and to perfect the security interest of Agent in the Account and the Pledged Assets for the benefit of the Secured Creditors and to secure the timely payment and performance of the Secured Obligations.
Accordingly, Securities Intermediary, Agent and Pledgor acknowledge and agree to the following: 
 1. The Account is a
“securities account” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Ohio (the “UCC”) and that all property other than cash held by Securities Intermediary in the Account will be
treated as financial assets under the UCC; and Pledgor hereby instructs Securities Intermediary, and Security Intermediary hereby agrees, that Securities Intermediary shall comply with entitlement orders or other instructions originated by Agent
without further consent by Pledgor. 
 2. Subject to Section 5, below, so long as the Securities Intermediary has not
received a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined below), the Securities Intermediary may comply with entitlement orders of the Pledgor or any duly authorized agent of the Pledgor in respect of the Account or any of the Pledged Assets credited
thereto. In the event Agent provides Securities Intermediary with a notice from Agent that Agent is thereby exercising exclusive control over the Account in substantially the form of Exhibit A to this agreement (a “Notice of Exclusive
Control”), the only instructions that shall be accepted by Securities Intermediary in regard to or in connection with the Account and the Pledged Assets shall be given by Agent. Until the Securities Intermediary receives a Notice of
Exclusive Control, the Pledgor shall be entitled to direct the Securities Intermediary with respect to the voting of any Pledged Assets credited to the Account. 
 3. So long as Agent maintains a security interest in the Account and the Pledged Assets, Agent shall be entitled to receive any and all notices and statements of account that Pledgor is entitled to
receive. 
 4. This agreement shall not impose or create duties upon Securities Intermediary greater than or in addition to the
customary and usual obligations and duties of a broker, except and to the extent that Securities Intermediary shall henceforth accept instructions in connection with the Pledged Assets only as provided herein and shall not enter into any agreement
to comply with entitlement orders or other directions concerning the Account or the Pledged Assets without the prior written consent of Agent and Pledgor. 
 5. Securities Intermediary (i) shall not be permitted to follow any instructions initiated by Pledgor with respect to the withdrawal of any amounts from the Account unless Pledgor certifies to
Securities Intermediary and Agent in writing that such withdrawal complies with the requirements for release of Pledged Collateral (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) upon and subject to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Pledge Agreement
(and Pledgor promptly shall provide to Agent such information as Agent may reasonably request to confirm such certification), (ii) shall not, following Agent’s issuance of a Notice of Exclusive Control, be permitted to follow any
instructions initiated by Pledgor with respect to the purchase and sale of any of the Pledged Assets, and (iii) shall, without further consent of Pledgor, follow any and all instructions initiated by the following employees of Agent, or by any
other employees of Agent specified by Agent in writing from time to time: Phillip Reaves; Margaret Vacca; Antoinette Anders; Larry Brown; and Sandra Wilder.

 6. As of the date hereof, the Pledged Assets are owned by
Pledgor and are held by Securities Intermediary in the Account. 
 7. Any rights which Securities Intermediary may have in the
Pledged Assets, or the Account, whether arising out of a security interest, right of setoff, or otherwise, are and shall remain subordinate to the security interest of Agent in the Pledged Assets and the Account. 

8. Securities Intermediary shall comply strictly with the provisions set forth herein and not make or pay outside of the Account and the
terms of this agreement any dividends, distributions, sales proceeds or any other sums with respect to the Account or the Pledged Assets to Pledgor or any other person without Agent’s prior written consent. 

9. Securities Intermediary shall comply with instructions received from Agent related to the Account and the Pledged Assets, without any
further consent of Pledgor. 
 10. Securities Intermediary has not received notice: (i) from any entities other than Agent
that the Pledged Assets are subject to a security interest, or (ii) of any adverse claim with respect to the Account or the Pledged Assets. 
 11. In the event that any of the Pledged Assets are traded or sold, all cash and securities received by Securities Intermediary as a result thereof shall be held by Securities Intermediary in the Account
and will be subject to the provisions of this agreement to the same extent as the Pledged Assets and any substitutions hereafter of any of the Pledged Assets shall be held by Securities Intermediary in the Account and will be subject to the

 15. ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. 
 Each of Agent, Pledgor and Securities Intermediary
here agree that: 
  

	 	(A)	All parties to this agreement are giving up the right to sue each other in court, including the right to a trial by jury, except a provided by the rules of the
arbitration forum in which a claim is filed. 

  

	 	(B)	Arbitration awards are generally final and binding; a party’s ability to have a court reverse or modify an arbitration award is very limited.

  

	 	(C)	The ability of the parties to obtain documents, witness statements and other discovery is generally more limited in arbitration than in court proceedings.

  

	 	(D)	The arbitrators do not have to explain the reason(s) for their award. 

  

	 	(E)	The panel of arbitrators will typically include a minority of arbitrators who were or are affiliated with the securities industry. 

 

	 	(F)	The rules of some arbitration forums may impose time limits for bringing a claim in arbitration. In some cases, a claim that is ineligible for arbitration may be
brought in court. 

  

	 	(G)	The rules of the arbitration forum in which the claim is filed and any amendments thereto, shall be incorporated into this agreement. 

 

	 	(H)	No person shall bring a putative or certified class action to arbitration, nor seek to enforce any pre-dispute arbitration agreement against any person who has
initiated in court a putative class action; or who is a member of a putative class action until: (1) the class certification is denied; or (ii) the class is decertified; or (iii) Pledgor is excluded from the class by the court. Such
forbearance to enforce an agreement to arbitrate shall not constitute a waiver of any rights under this agreement except to the extent stated herein. 

 Each party hereto agrees to arbitrate any disputes between or among Securities Intermediary, Agent, any other Secured Creditor, or Pledgor in respect of this agreement. Each party hereto specifically
agrees and recognizes that all controversies which may arise between or among Securities Intermediary, Agent, any other Secured Creditor or Pledgor,

or any of their respective agents, representatives or employees, jointly or severally, concerning this agreement or any transaction, account, or the construction, performance or breach of or
relating to this agreement, shall be determined by arbitration to the fullest extent provided by law. Such arbitration shall be in accordance with the rules then in effect of the Arbitration Committee of the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. or the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., as we may elect. Pledgor hereby authorizes Securities Intermediary, if Pledgor does not make such election within fifteen (15) days after notification from Securities Intermediary requesting
such election, to make such election on Pledgor’s behalf.

interest-only payments during its term, with principal due in full at maturity. The interest rate is fixed over the term of the loan at 5.28%. This loan was the subject of a Form D, Prior Notice of a Transaction, filed by Milbank with the Iowa
Department of Insurance on April 8, 2013, and was subsequently approved by the Iowa Department of Insurance.

	2.	 On July 15, 2013, the Parent completed the redemption of all of its outstanding $100 million 6 1/4% Senior Notes due 2013.

 Litigation 
 In April 2013, a putative class action lawsuit (Schumacher vs. State Automobile
Mutual Insurance Company, et al.) was filed against State Automobile Mutual Insurance Company, the Parent and Borrower in Federal District Court in Ohio. Plaintiffs’ claims relate to the Parent’s homeowners insurance to value
(“ITV”) program and allege that their homeowners’ policy limits and premiums were improperly increased, causing them to purchase coverage in excess of that which was necessary to insure them in the event of loss. Plaintiffs’
claims include breach of good faith and fair dealing, negligent misrepresentation and fraud, violation of the Ohio Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and fraudulent inducement. Plaintiffs are seeking class certification and compensatory and
punitive damages to be determined by the court.
