2013 INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN 

Performance Stock Unit Award Grant Notice and Agreement 
  

	I.	Performance Stock Unit Award Grant Notice 

 Smith & Wesson Holding
Corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to its 2013 Incentive Stock Plan (as amended, the “Plan”), hereby grants to the Participant named below a right to receive the number of Shares set forth below.
This Performance Stock Unit Award Grant Notice and Agreement (the “Agreement”) is subject to all of the terms and conditions as set forth herein and in the Plan, agreed to by the Participant, and incorporated herein in their
entirety. Each capitalized term in this Agreement shall have the meaning assigned to it in this Agreement, or, if such term is not defined in this Agreement, such term shall have the meaning assigned to it under the Plan. 

 

			
	Participant:	 	
	Date of Grant:	 	
	Number of Performance Stock Units:	 	 [—] (Target Award)

[—] (Maximum Award)

  

			
	Expiration Date:	  	Subject to forfeiture as provided in Section 3(b) of Part II of this Agreement.
		
	 Vesting Schedule:
	  	Up to a maximum of [—] Performance Stock Units will vest on May 1, 2017, following the written certification by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of
Directors (the “Compensation Committee”), of the extent, if any, to which the following performance metric has been achieved. The performance metric is the relative performance of the Shares against the Russell 2000 Index
over an approximately three-year period. To determine relative performance, the baseline metrics are the 90 calendar day average closing price of each of the Stock and the Russell 2000 Index, as reported in The Wall Street Journal, with the first
trading day commencing on April 29, 2014. This 90 calendar day average establishes both the baseline Share price (the “Company Baseline”) and the Russell 2000 Index baseline (the “Russell Baseline”)
against which future Share and Russell 2000 Index performance will be compared.
		
		  	Next, the Compensation Committee will measure the 90 calendar day average closing price of each of the Shares and the Russell 2000 Index, as reported in The Wall Street Journal, with the last trading day of such 90 calendar day
period ending on May 1, 2017 (the “Ending Date,” which establishes both the “Company Closing Price” and the “Russell Closing Price”).

  
 1 

 

 
  

			
		  	The Compensation Committee will then measure Company performance by dividing the Company Closing Price by the Company Baseline, with the quotient expressed as a percentage of the Company Baseline (the “Company
Percentage Performance”). The Compensation Committee will then measure Russell 2000 Index performance over the same period by dividing the Russell Closing Price by the Russell Baseline with the quotient expressed as a percentage of the
Russell Baseline (the “Russell Percentage Performance”).
		
		  	The Compensation Committee will then subtract the Russell Percentage Performance from the Company Percentage Performance, with the final result constituting the relative Company performance as a percentage (the
“Relative Performance Percentage”).
		
		  	If the Relative Performance Percentage is equal to or less than 0%, no Performance Stock Units subject to this Award shall vest. If the Relative Performance Percentage is greater than 0% but less than 20%, then the number of
Performance Stock Units subject to this Award that vest shall equal the Relative Performance Percentage multiplied by [—] multiplied by ten. If the Relative Performance Percentage is equal to or
greater than 20%, then [—] Performance Stock Units subject to this Award shall vest. In no event shall more than [—] Performance Stock Units
subject to this Award vest.
		
		  	For example, (a) if the Relative Performance Percentage equals 5%, then [—] Performance Stock Units subject to this Award shall vest (.05 x [—] x 10); (b) if the Relative Performance Percentage equals 10%, then [—] Performance Stock Units subject to this Award shall vest (.10 x [—] x 10); and (c) if the Relative Performance Percentage equals 15%, then [—] RSUs subject to this Award shall vest (.15 x [—] x 10).
		
		  	All vesting is subject to the Participant’s Continuous Service with the Company from the Date of Grant through the Ending Date, except as set forth in Part II of this Agreement.
		
	Delivery Schedule:	  	Except as described in Section 4, for each Performance Stock Unit that vests (if any) you will receive one Share, with the Share being delivered to you on June 30, 2017 (the “Delivery Date”).

  
 2 

 

 
  

			
		 	If the Delivery Date falls on a day in which the NASDAQ Global Select Market is not open for active trading, the Delivery Date will fall on the next active trading day. An active trading day is defined as a day in which the
NASDAQ Global Select Market is open for trading, excluding after hours trading.

	II.	Performance Stock Unit Award Agreement 

 The Company wishes to grant to the
Participant named in Part I of this Agreement (the “Notice of Grant”) a Performance Stock Unit Award (the “Award”) pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. This Award will entitle the Participant to
Shares from the Company if the Participant meets the vesting requirements described herein. 
 1. Grant Pursuant to Plan. This Award
is granted pursuant to the Plan, which is incorporated herein for all purposes. The Participant hereby acknowledges that a copy of the Company’s most recent prospectus describing the Plan and a complete copy of the Plan document have been made
available to the Participant, that the Participant has had reasonable opportunity to review the prospectus, the Plan and this Agreement in their entirety, that the Participant has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing
this Agreement and that the Participant fully understands all provisions of this Agreement. Participant agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the Plan. Each capitalized term in this Agreement shall have the
meaning assigned to it in this Agreement, or, if such term is not defined in this Agreement, such term shall have the meaning assigned to it under the Plan. 

2. Performance Stock Unit Award. The Company hereby grants to the Participant the number of Performance Stock Units listed in the Notice
of Grant as of the Date of Grant. Such number of Performance Stock Units may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 10(c) of the Plan. 

3. Vesting and Forfeiture of Performance Stock Units. 

(a) Vesting. The Participant shall become vested in the Performance Stock Units in accordance with the vesting schedule contained in the
Notice of Grant. 
 (b) Forfeiture. The Participant shall forfeit any Performance Stock Units then remaining unvested (if any) in the
event that the Participant’s Continuous Service is terminated for any reason, except as otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, which determination need not be uniform as to all Participants. 

4. Vesting and Delivery in Connection with a Change in Control. 

(a) Determination of Earned Performance Stock Units. In the event of a Change in Control of the Company prior to the Ending Date, the
Participant shall, upon consummation thereof, earn the Performance Stock Units in accordance with the formula under “Vesting Schedule” in the Notice of Grant, provided that solely for purposes of applying such formula the definition of
Ending Date shall be deemed to mean the date of the consummation of the Change in Control and the Company Closing Price shall be deemed to equal (i) in the event the Change in Control involves the acquisition of Shares (including through a
merger or tender offer), the highest per share price paid for Shares in the Change in Control or (ii) in the event the Change in Control does not involve the acquisition of Shares, the closing price of the Shares as of the date of the
consummation of the Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company 

  
 5 

 

 
  

 
terminates the Participant without Good Cause (other than due to death or disability) or the Participant resigns following an Adverse Change in Control Effect, in either case, during a Potential
Change in Control Protection Period, the Participant shall earn the Performance Stock Units as of the date of termination or resignation as described in the immediately preceding sentence, except that the definition of Ending Date shall be deemed to
mean the date of the Potential Change in Control and the Company Closing Price shall be deemed to equal the closing price of the Shares as of the Potential Change in Control. The Shares underlying the Performance Stock Units earned pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence shall be immediately vested and shall be delivered to the Participant in accordance with Section 4(c). Any Performance Stock Units that are not earned pursuant to this Section 4(a) shall terminate and the
Company shall have no further obligation to deliver Shares or any other property for such unearned Performance Stock Units. 
 (b) Vesting
of Earned Performance Stock Units. The Performance Stock Units earned pursuant to Section 4(a) shall convert into time-based restricted stock units (the “Converted Performance Stock Units”) and such Converted
Performance Stock Units shall remain unvested until the earlier of (i) the date on which the Participant is terminated without Good Cause (other than due to death or disability) or resigns following an Adverse Change in Control Effect and
(ii) the Ending Date (determined without regard to Section 4(a)). The Participant shall forfeit any Converted Performance Stock Units in the event that the Participant’s Continuous Service is terminated for any reason, except as a
result of a termination without Good Cause (other than due to death or disability) or a resignation following an Adverse Change in Control Effect. 

(c) Delivery of Shares. Upon vesting of any Converted Performance Stock Units earned pursuant to Section 4(a), the full amount of
the Shares corresponding to such vested Converted Performance Stock Units shall be distributed to the Participant (or, if appropriate, in lieu of such Shares, the stock or other securities or property to which the Participant would have been
entitled to receive upon such Change in Control if the Participant had held the full number of Shares corresponding to the Participant’s vested Converted Performance Stock Units immediately prior thereto) as soon as administratively practicable
following vesting but in no event later than 5 days following vesting. 
 (d) Certain Definitions. For purposes of this
Section 4, the following terms shall have the following meanings: 
 “Adverse Change in Control Effect” means,
during a Potential Change in Control Protection Period or Change in Control Protection Period, without the Participant’s written consent, (i) any material reduction in the Participant’s annual base salary or target bonus percentage
opportunity, (ii) any material adverse change in a Participant’s positions, titles, duties, responsibilities or reporting relationships compared to the Participant’s positions, titles, duties, responsibilities or reporting
relationships immediately prior to a Potential Change in Control (if such diminution occurs during the Potential Change in Control Protection Period) or 

  
 6 

 

 
  

 
Change in Control (if such diminution occurs during the Change in Control Protection Period) or (iii) a relocation of the Participant’s principal place of business more than 50 miles
from his or her principal place of business immediately prior to a Potential Change in Control or Change in Control, as applicable; provided, however, that a Participant may resign following an Adverse Change in Control Effect only if Participant
delivers a written notice to the Company within 30 days of the date on which the Participant becomes aware of such condition and the Company does not cure such condition within 60 days of such notice. 

“Change in Control Protection Period” means the period commencing on the date a Change in Control occurs and ending on
the first anniversary of such date. 
 “Good Cause” means (i) the Participant engaging in an act or acts
involving a crime, moral turpitude, fraud, or dishonesty, (ii) the Participant willfully taking any action that may be materially injurious to the business or reputation of the Company or (iii) the Participant willfully violating in a
material respect the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, Code of Conduct and Ethics or any other applicable code of conduct, all as may be amended from time to time, including, without limitation, provisions thereof relating to conflicts
of interest or related party transactions. 
 “Potential Change in Control” means (i) the Company enters into an
agreement, the consummation of which would result in the occurrence of a Change in Control, (ii) the Company or any person publicly announces an intention to take or to consider taking actions which, if consummated, would constitute a Change in
Control or (iii) the Board of Directors of the Company adopts a resolution to the effect that, for purposes of this Award, a Potential Change in Control has occurred. 

“Potential Change in Control Protection Period” means the period beginning upon the occurrence of a Potential Change in
Control and ending upon the earliest to occur of (i) the consummation of the Change in Control or (ii) the abandonment of the transaction or series of transactions that constitute a Potential Change in Control (as determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion). 
 5. Settlement of Performance Stock Unit Award. 

(a) Settlement of Units for Shares. The Company shall deliver to the Participant on the Delivery Date one Share for each Performance
Stock Unit subject to this Award that vests pursuant to Section 3(a). The Company shall not have any obligation to settle this Award for cash. 

(b) Delivery of Shares. Shares shall be delivered on the Delivery Date. If the Delivery Date falls on a day in which the NASDAQ Global
Select Market is not open for active trading, the Delivery Date will fall on the next active trading day. An active trading day is defined as a day in which the NASDAQ Global Select Market is open for trading, excluding after hours trading. Once a
Share (or, to the extent 

  
 7 

 

 
  

 
applicable, other property described in Section 4(c)) is delivered with respect to a vested Performance Stock Unit, such vested Performance Stock Unit shall terminate and the Company shall
have no further obligation to deliver Shares or any other property for such vested Performance Stock Unit. 
 6. No Rights as Shareholder
until Delivery. The Participant shall not have any rights, benefits, or entitlements with respect to any Shares subject to any Performance Stock Unit. On or after delivery of any Shares, the Participant shall have, with respect to any Shares
delivered, all of the rights of an equity interest holder of the Company, including the right to vote the Shares and the right to receive all dividends (if any) as may be declared on Shares from time to time. 

7. Tax Provisions. 
 (a)
Tax Consequences. The Participant has reviewed with the Participant’s own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Participant is
relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. The Participant understands that the Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible for any tax liability that may arise as a
result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (b) Withholding Obligations. At the time this Award is granted, or at
any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the Participant hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Participant (other than any amount constituting nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Code), including the Shares deliverable pursuant to this Award, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for, any sums required to satisfy the minimum federal, state, local, and foreign tax withholding obligations of
the Company or a Related Entity (if any) which arise in connection with this Award. 
 The Company, in its sole discretion, and in compliance
with any applicable legal conditions or restrictions, may withhold from fully vested Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant pursuant to this Award a number of whole Shares having a Fair Market Value, as determined by the Company as of the
date the Participant recognizes income with respect to those Shares, not in excess of the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law (or such lower amount as may be necessary to avoid adverse financial accounting treatment). Any adverse
consequences to the Participant arising in connection with such Share withholding procedure shall be the Participant’s sole responsibility. 

In addition, the Company, in its sole discretion, may establish a procedure whereby the Participant may make an irrevocable election to direct
a broker (determined by the Company) to sell sufficient Shares from this Award to cover the tax withholding obligations of the Company or any Related Entity and deliver such proceeds to the Company. 

  
 8 

 

 
  

 Unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company or any Related Entity are satisfied,
the Company shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such Shares. 
 8. Consideration. With respect to the value of the
Shares to be delivered pursuant to this Award, such Shares are granted in consideration for the services the Participant shall provide to the Company during the vesting period. 

9. Transferability. The Performance Stock Units granted under this Agreement are not transferable otherwise than by will or under the
applicable laws of descent and distribution. In addition, this Award shall not be assigned, negotiated, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), and this Award shall not be subject to execution, attachment or
similar process. Upon any attempt by the Participant to transfer, assign, negotiate, pledge or hypothecate this Award, or in the event of any levy upon this Award by reason of any execution, attachment or similar process as a result of any attempt
by the Participant to transfer, assign, negotiate, pledge or hypothecate this Award, contrary to the provisions hereof, this Award shall immediately become null and void. 

10. General Provisions. 

(a) Employment At Will. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the service
of the Company or its Related Entities for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Related Entity employing or retaining the Participant) or of the Participant, which
rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate the Participant’s service at any time for any reason, with or without cause. 

(b) Notices. Any notice under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered personally
or when deposited in the United States mail, registered, postage prepaid, and addressed, in the case of the Company, to the Company’s President at Smith & Wesson Holding Corporation, 2100 Roosevelt Avenue, Springfield, Massachusetts
01104, or if the Company should move its principal office, to such principal office, and, in the case of the Participant, to the Participant’s last permanent address as shown on the Company’s records, subject to the right of either party
to designate some other address at any time hereafter, upon ten (10) days’ advance written notice under this Section to all other parties to this Agreement. 

(c) No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the Company from adopting or
continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, and those arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. 

(d) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction or would disqualify this Agreement or this Award under any applicable law, that provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable law (or if that provision cannot be so

  
 9 

 

 
  

 
construed or deemed amended without materially altering the purpose or intent of this Agreement and this Award, that provision shall be stricken as to that jurisdiction and the remainder of this
Agreement and this Award shall remain in full force and effect). 
 (e) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither this Agreement nor the grant
of this Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and the Participant or any other person. The Performance Stock Units subject to this Agreement represent only
the Company’s unfunded and unsecured promise to issue Shares to the Participant in the future. To the extent that the Participant or any other person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to this Agreement, that right
shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. 
 (f) Cancellation of Award. If any Performance
Stock Units subject to this Agreement are forfeited, then from and after such time, the person from whom such Performance Stock Units are forfeited shall no longer have any rights to such Performance Stock Units or the corresponding Shares. Such
Performance Stock Units shall be deemed forfeited in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof. 
 (g) Participant Undertaking.
The Participant hereby agrees to take whatever additional action and execute whatever additional documents the Company may deem necessary or advisable in order to carry out or effect one or more of the obligations or restrictions imposed on either
the Participant or the Shares deliverable pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement. 
 (h) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be
governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Nevada without regard to the conflict-of-laws rules thereof or of any other jurisdiction. 

(i) Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company and the Participant hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right
either party may have to a trial by jury in respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Award. 

(j) Interpretation. The Participant accepts this Award subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the terms and
conditions of the Plan. The Participant hereby accepts as binding, conclusive, and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any questions arising under this Agreement. 

(k) Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its
successors and assigns and upon the Participant, the Participant’s assigns and the legal representatives, heirs and legatees of the Participant’s estate, whether or not any such person shall have become a party to this Agreement and have
agreed in writing to join herein and be bound by the terms hereof. The Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the forfeiture provision of Section 3(b) to any person or entity
selected by the Board. 

  
 10 

 

 
  

 (l) Committee Discretion. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Committee shall
have full and plenary discretion with respect to any actions to be taken or determinations to be made in connection with this Award, and its determinations shall be final, binding and conclusive. 

(m) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 (n) Headings. Headings are given to the Sections and Subsections of this
Agreement solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. The headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of this Agreement or any provision thereof. 

11. Amendments. Any modification, amendment or waiver to this Agreement that shall materially impair the rights of the Participant with
respect to the Performance Stock Units shall require an instrument in writing to be signed by both parties hereto, except such a modification, amendment or waiver made to cause the Plan or the Performance Stock Units to comply with applicable law,
tax rules, stock exchange rules or accounting rules and which is made to similarly situated participants. The waiver by either party of compliance with any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other
provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement. 
 12. Representations. The
Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Participant has reviewed this Agreement in its entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing and accepting this Award and fully understands all provisions of this
Award.

operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates. Each Tranche B Lender hereby (a) confirms that it has received a copy of the Amended Credit Agreement and each other Loan
Document and such other documents (including financial statements) and information as it deems appropriate to make its decision to enter into this Agreement, (i) agrees that it shall be bound by the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement as a
Lender thereunder and that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender, (ii) irrevocably designates and appoints the
Administrative Agent as the administrative agent and collateral agent of such Tranche B Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Tranche B Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such
capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the
Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and (iii) specifies as its lending office and address for notices the offices set forth on the Administrative
Questionnaire provided by it to the Administrative Agent prior to the date hereof. 
 SECTION 8. Reaffirmation. By signing
this Agreement, each Loan Party and each Pledgor hereby confirms that this Agreement shall not effect a novation of any of the obligations of the Loan Parties under the Existing Credit Agreement, which obligations continue in full force

  
 7 

 
and effect as set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, and each Loan Party and each Pledgor acknowledges and confirms that (a) the obligations of the Loan Parties under the Existing Credit
Agreement as modified or supplemented hereby (including with respect to the Tranche B Term Loans contemplated by this Agreement) and the other Loan Documents (i) are entitled to the benefits of the guarantees, pledge of and/or grant of the
security interests set forth or created in the Collateral Documents and the other Loan Documents, (ii) constitute “Obligations” and “Secured Obligations” or other similar term for purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement,
the Collateral Documents and all other Loan Documents, (iii) notwithstanding the effectiveness of the terms hereof, the Collateral Documents and the other Loan Documents are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby
ratified and confirmed in all respects and (b) each Tranche B Lender shall be a “Secured Party” and a “Lender” (including without limitation for purposes of the definition of “Required Lenders” contained in
Section 1.01 of the Amended Credit Agreement) for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Loan Party and each Pledgor ratifies and confirms that all Liens granted, conveyed, or assigned to the
Administrative Agent by such Person pursuant to any Loan Document to which it is a party remain in full force and effect, are not released or reduced, and continue to secure full payment and performance of the Obligations as increased hereby. 

SECTION 9. Applicable Law; Jurisdiction; Venue. 

(a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

(b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE BORROWER, EACH PLEDGOR AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR
ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY
ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY
SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES 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 THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER
OR THE TRANCHE B ARRANGER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER, ANY PLEDGOR OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. 

  
 8 

 (c) WAIVER OF VENUE. THE BORROWER, EACH PLEDGOR AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN
ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR
PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT. 
 SECTION 10. Credit Agreement Governs. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall not
by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under the Existing Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify,
amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Existing Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full
force and effect. Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle any Loan Party to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Amended Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances. 
 SECTION 11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same
instrument. Delivery of any executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. 

SECTION 12. Miscellaneous. This Agreement shall constitute an amendment of the Existing Credit Agreement. The Borrower shall pay
all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Tranche B Arranger incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. To the extent required
by the Amended Credit Agreement, each of the Borrower, the Parent and the Administrative Agent hereby consent to each Tranche B Lender that is not a Lender as of the date hereof becoming a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement on the Amendment
Effective Date. In addition, the Borrower and the Parent hereby consents to the assignment in connection with the primary syndication and made within 90 days of the Amendment Effective Date by any Tranche B Lender of all or a portion of its Tranche
B Term Loans to any other bank, financial institution or other investor identified by the Tranche B Arranger to the Borrower prior to the Amendment Effective Date.

or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion. 
 (iv) The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of
Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof. 

(v) The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no
obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. 

(vi) The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders holding Revolving Commitments with respect to any Letters of Credit
issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article X with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C
Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article X included the L/C
Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer. 
 (b)
Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit. 
 (i) Each Letter of
Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a
Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two (2) Business Days (or such later date and time as the
Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of
Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof;
(C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by
such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of such Letter of Credit and (H) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of
Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the
nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such
requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require. 

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by
telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has
received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more of the applicable conditions

  
 38 

 
contained in Article V shall not then be satisfied, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or
enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

 (iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to
prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice
Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such
extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue
such Letter of Credit in its revised form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in
writing) on or before the day that is five (5) Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or any Loan Party that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 5.02 is not then satisfied, and in each case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension. 

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with
respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 

(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. 

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C
Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall
reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender holding a
Revolving Commitment of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof (which shall be based on such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage of the Revolving Commitments). In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolving Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the
minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and the conditions set forth in
Section 5.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in
writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

(ii) Each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds
available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage
(with respect to the Revolving Commitments) of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such 

  
 39 

 
notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate
Revolving Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer. 

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolving Loans because
the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (other than delivery of a Committed Loan Notice) cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of
the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for
the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation
obligation under this Section 2.03. 
 (iv) Until each applicable Lender funds its Revolving Loan or L/C Advance
pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C
Issuer. 
 (v) Each applicable Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer
for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans (but not to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any L/C Advance in the event the Borrower fails to do so) pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the
Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 

(vi) If any applicable Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount
required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the
Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the
Federal Funds Rate and rate determined by L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with
respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Repayment of
Participations. 
 (i) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received
from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed
Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage
thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. 

  
 40 

 (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the
L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender
shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such
Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 
 (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation
of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
under all circumstances, including the following: 
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit,
this Agreement, or any other Loan Document; 
 (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right
that the Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person,
whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent,
invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; 

(iv) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not
strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors,
liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or 

(v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other
circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any Subsidiary. 
 The Borrower
shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately
notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 

(f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of
Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such
document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender
for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of
any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have
against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, any Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for
any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to 

  
 41 

 
the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as
opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit
after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit unless the L/C Issuer is prevented or prohibited from so paying as a result of any order or
directive of any court of Governmental Authority. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of
any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits
thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 
 (g) Applicability of
ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

 (h) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender holding a Revolving
Commitment in accordance with its Applicable Percentage (based on the respective Lenders’ Revolving Commitments/Loans) a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Margin
times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. For the purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance
with Section 1.06. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears, and (ii) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with
the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Margin during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn
under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, while any
Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate. 
 (i) Fronting Fee and Processing Charges Payable
to L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall, in connection with the issuance or extension (whether or not pursuant to an automatic extension) of each Letter of Credit, pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee for each Letter of
Credit equal to the greater of (i) $1,500.00 and (ii) one hundred twenty-five thousandths percent (0.125%) times the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect
with respect to such Letter of Credit). Such fronting fee shall be payable upon issuance or extension of the applicable Letter of Credit. For the purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of
such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other
processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 

(j) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Documents, the
terms hereof shall control. 
 (k) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or
outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby
acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries. 

  
 42 

 2.04. Swing Line Loans. 

(a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees (unless it has determined that it
is reasonably likely that a Lender holding Revolving Commitments is or shall become a Defaulting Lender on or prior to the time on which the relevant Swing Line Loan is capable of being refinanced in accordance with Section 2.04(c)) may,
in its sole discretion and in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders holding Revolving Commitments as set forth in this Section 2.04, make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower from time
to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable
Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Committed Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any
Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding
Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, and provided, further, that the Borrower
shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay
under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment shall be deemed to, and
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (with respect to such Lender’s
Revolving Commitment) times the amount of such Swing Line Loan. 
 (b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall
be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00
p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $250,000 and integral multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a
Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.
Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line
Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent
(including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to
the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not
later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower. 

(c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans. 

(i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby
irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Lender with a Revolving Commitment make a Base Rate Revolving Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (with respect to such
Lender’s Revolving Commitment) of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the
requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and the conditions set
forth in Section 5.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its
Applicable Percentage (with 

  
 43 

 
respect to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment) of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds (and the
Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan) for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such
Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Revolving Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the
funds so received to the Swing Line Lender. 
 (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a
Committed Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Revolving Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders
fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such
participation. 
 (iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line
Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such
Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per
annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the
Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or funded
participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. 
 (iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans or to purchase and fund risk
participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which
such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any
of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Committed Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02. No such funding of risk
participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein. 

(d) Repayment of Participations. 

(i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender
receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage (with respect to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment) thereof in the same funds as those received by the
Swing Line Lender. 
 (ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing
Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay
to the Swing Line Lender its Applicable Percentage (with respect to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment) thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a
rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the
termination of this Agreement. 

  
 44 

 (e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible
for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Committed Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (with respect
to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment) of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender. 

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line
Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender. 
 2.05. Prepayments. 

(a) Voluntary Prepayments of Loans. 

(i) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time (A) voluntarily prepay
Base Rate Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty except as provided in Section 2.05(a)(iii), and (B) voluntarily prepay Eurodollar Rate Loans in whole or in part on the last day of the applicable Interest Period
without premium or penalty except as provided Section 2.05(a)(iii) and Section 3.05 hereof; provided that (1) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (x) three
(3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (y) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (2) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole
multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding); (3) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or,
if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding); and (4) any prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied ratably to the Term Loans. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Class and Type(s)
of Committed Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the
Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the
amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment shall be applied to the Committed Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages. 

(ii) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time
to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the
prepayment, and (B) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment
and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. 
 (iii) Any
prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(i) or Section 2.05(b)(v) of the Tranche B Term Loans as a result of a Repricing Event shall be accompanied by a prepayment fee, which shall initially be 1% of the aggregate
principal amount prepaid and shall decline to 0% after the twelve-month anniversary of the Amendment Effective Date. Such amounts shall be due and payable to the Tranche B Lenders on the date of effectiveness of such Repricing Event. 

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. 

(i) Aggregate Revolving Commitments. If for any reason the Total Revolving Outstandings at any time exceed the Aggregate
Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall immediately prepay Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided, however, that the
Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(i) unless after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans the Total Revolving Outstandings exceed the
Letter of Credit Sublimit. 

  
 45 

 (ii) Total Facility Outstandings. If for any reason the Total Facility
Outstandings as of any date of determination exceed the Borrowing Base as of such date, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided,
however, that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(iii) unless after the prepayment in full of the Loans the remaining L/C Obligations exceed the Letter of
Credit Sublimit. 
 (iii) Borrowing Base Property Dispositions. 

(A) Upon the Disposition of any Borrowing Base Property, the Borrower shall, immediately upon the receipt of the Net Cash
Proceeds related thereto (and, in any case, not later than the day following the date on which such Disposition occurs) prepay Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to (x) if after giving effect to
such Disposition there is less than two (2) remaining hotel Borrowing Base Properties, one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Cash Proceeds or (y) if after giving effect to such Disposition there is at least two remaining hotel
Borrowings Base Properties, the lesser of (1) one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Cash Proceeds and (2) the amount of the prepayment required to cause the Total Facility Outstandings as of the date of such prepayment to be equal to
or less than fifty percent (50.0%) of the then-applicable BBP Value. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the first occurrence of any such Disposition of a Borrowing Base Property, the percentage referenced in clause
(b) of the definition of the term “Borrowing Base” contained in Section 1.01 shall, immediately upon the consummation of such Disposition, be irrevocably reduced from fifty-five percent (55.0%) to fifty percent
(50.0%). Further, all Dispositions of Borrowing Base Properties hereunder remain subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 8.05 (including, without limitation, the timely delivery by the Borrower of a Pro Forma Compliance
Certificate giving Pro Forma Effect to such Disposition). The Administrative Agent shall, in connection with any assertion or claim by the Borrower that it is entitled to prepay an amount that is less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Net
Cash Proceeds with respect to any Disposition of a Borrowing Base Property, have the right to obtain, at the expense of the Borrower, a new appraisal with respect to any one or more of the remaining Borrowing Base Properties as of such date for
recalculation of the Appraised Values associated therewith (such appraisal to be in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent, in its discretion). The Borrower shall, pending the completion of such re-appraisals, deposit one hundred
percent (100%) of the Net Cash Proceeds related to such Disposition in an account controlled by the Administrative Agent to be held in escrow pending the final determination of the new Appraised Values for the remaining Borrowing Base
Properties and shall execute any and all other documents, instruments or agreements requested by Administrative Agent in connection with such account or to establish Administrative Agent’s rights with respect thereto. Upon the final
determination of the new Appraised Values for the remaining Borrowing Base Properties, the Administrative Agent shall release any amount of such Net Cash Proceeds to which the Borrower may be entitled pursuant to the proviso set forth above. 

(B) In addition to any prepayments required pursuant to item (A) above, to the extent any Net Cash Proceeds from the
Disposition of a Borrowing Base Property are applied to pay down any Indebtedness of any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied to discharge or otherwise prepay the Obligations prior to any payment being
made against any Indebtedness evidenced by or related to any Senior Notes Indenture. 
 (iv) Casualty and Condemnation
Events Related to Borrowing Base Properties. The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the Net Cash Proceeds related to any Involuntary Disposition with respect to any Borrowing Base Property immediately upon the receipt of such Net
Cash Proceeds. Such Net Cash Proceeds will be held in escrow by the Administrative Agent subject to the terms of Section 7.07 hereof. If the Borrower and Loan Parties elect, pursuant to Section 7.07 hereof, not to fully

  
 46 

 
rebuild, reconstruct and otherwise restore the applicable Borrowing Base Property with such Net Cash Proceeds, such Net Cash Proceeds will, following the sixty (60) day decision period
provided the Borrower in such Section 7.07 or upon the written direction of the Borrower, be applied to the Obligations in the manner described in subsection (vii) below except to the extent that (A) such prepayment would be in
an amount that would necessarily result in a paydown of the principal balance of the Term Loans (assuming the Borrower’s election to cause such proceeds to be first applied to the Revolving Loans and the Cash Collateralization of the L/C
Obligations); (B) the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent, prior to the end of such sixty (60) day period and prior to its delivery of any written direction for application of the funds against the Obligations, a request for the
re-appraisal of such Borrowing Base Property (which such appraisal shall constitute an appraisal obtained in connection with a casualty or condemnation event pursuant to Section 7.12 hereof) and return of any Net Cash Proceeds held by
the Administrative Agent which would otherwise necessarily be used for the prepayment of the Term Loans; (C) there exists, at the time of the Borrower’s written request and upon receipt of such new appraisal, no Default or Event of Default
hereunder; and (D) the Borrowing Base, once calculated taking into account such new appraisal, is sufficient to cover the Total Facility Outstandings as of the date on which such new appraisal is obtained. If Borrower provides a request
pursuant to item (B) above, the Net Cash Proceeds held in escrow by the Administrative Agent (1) shall, upon the receipt of the Borrower’s request pursuant to item (B) above, be applied, to the extent possible, to the outstanding
Swing Line Loans and Revolving Loans and to the Cash Collateralization of the L/C Obligations; and (2) if items (A) – (D) are fully satisfied, the excess proceeds remaining after application to the Revolving Loans and to the Cash
Collateralization of the L/C Obligations shall be returned to the Borrower. To the extent the Borrower delivers a request pursuant to item (B) above and the new appraisal obtained shows that the Borrowing Base is not sufficient to cover the
Total Facility Outstandings, the remaining amount held by the Administrative Agent in escrow shall be immediately applied to the Obligations in accordance with subclause (vii) below. The parties hereto each acknowledge and agree that the
funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow shall, at all times prior to application to the Obligations or return to the Borrower, be subject to a first priority security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the
Secured Parties. 
 (v) Debt Issuance. The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the Net Cash Proceeds
related to any Debt Issuance (other than as permitted by Section 8.03), not later than the next Business Day following such incurrence. 

(vi) Excess Cash Flow. If, for any fiscal year of the Borrower commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31,
2015, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, then, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, the Term Loans shall be prepaid by an amount equal to (A) (x) 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended if the Consolidated Net
Leverage Ratio at the end of such period is greater than or equal to 4.25:1.0, (y) 25% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended if the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio at the end of such period is less than 4.25:1.0 but greater than or
equal to 3.75:1.0 and (z) 0.0% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended if the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio at the end of such period is less than 3.75:1.0 minus (B) the aggregate principal amount of optional prepayments of
Term Loans or Revolving Loans (accompanied by a permanent reduction in the corresponding Revolving Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to such prepayment of Revolving Loans) pursuant to Section 2.05(a) made during such period to the
extent such prepayment (1) does not occur in connection with a refinancing of all or a portion of such Loans and (2) is made with Internally Generated Funds. Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow
Application Date”) no later than five Business Days after the earlier of the date on which the financial statements of the Company referred to in Section 7.01(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is
made, (i) are required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent and (ii) are actually delivered. 
 (vii)
Application of Mandatory Prepayments. All amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied as follows: 

(A) with respect to all amounts prepaid pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(i), first to Swing Line Loans and then to
Revolving Loans and (after all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans have been repaid) to Cash Collateralize L/C Obligations; 

  
 47 

 (B) subject to Section 2.05(b)(vii)(D), with respect to all amounts
prepaid pursuant to Sections 2.05(b)(ii), (iii) or (iv), to Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans (at the option and written direction of the Borrower delivered concurrently with such prepayment) and (after all
Term Loans, Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans have been repaid) to Cash Collateralize L/C Obligations; provided, that to the extent no direction is given by Borrower with respect to the application of any such prepayments, such prepayments
shall be applied first, to the Swing Line Loans, second, to the Revolving Loans and, third, to the Term Loans; 

(C) with respect to all amounts prepaid pursuant to Sections 2.05(b)(v) or (vi), to Term Loans to be applied
ratably; and 
 (D) if the Borrower elects or is deemed to have elected to pay Term Loans in accordance with
Section 2.05(b)(vii)(B), each Tranche B Term Lender shall have the right to reject (a “Declining Tranche B Lender”) all or any part of the prepayment (the “Declined Amount”) within two (2) Business
Days following a notice of prepayment (or if no notice is provided, the date of such prepayment) by notice to the Administrative Agent and to the extent disbursed to the Declining Tranche B Lender, return of the Declined Amounts to the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the Declined Amounts notify the Borrower and pay the Declined Amounts first, to the Closing Date Term Loans, second to Swing Line
Loans and then to Revolving Loans and (after all Closing Date Term Loans, Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans have been repaid) to the Borrower. 

Within the parameters of the applications set forth above, prepayments shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans and then to Eurodollar Rate
Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities. All prepayments under this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied ratably (other than as expressly set forth in Section 2.05(b)(vii)) without premium or penalty except as set
forth in Section 2.05(a)(iii) and Section 3.05 and shall be accompanied by interest on the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment. 

(viii) Prepayment Account. If the Borrower is required to make a mandatory prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans under
this Section 2.05(b), the Borrower shall have the right, in lieu of making such prepayment in full, to deposit an amount equal to such mandatory prepayment with the Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account maintained (pursuant
to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) by and in the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent. Any amounts so deposited shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the prepayment of such
Eurodollar Rate Loans and shall be applied to the prepayment of the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans at the end of the current Interest Periods applicable thereto. At the request of the Borrower, amounts so deposited shall be invested by the
Administrative Agent in Cash Equivalents maturing prior to the date or dates on which it is anticipated that such amounts will be applied to prepay such Eurodollar Rate Loans; any interest earned on such Cash Equivalents will be for the account of
the Borrower and the Borrower will deposit with the Administrative Agent the amount of any loss on any such Cash Equivalents to the extent necessary in order that the amount of the prepayment to be made with the deposited amounts may not be reduced.

 (ix) Availability. Prepayments of the Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans made pursuant to this
Section 2.05(b) shall not be deemed to permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments. 
 2.06. Termination, Reduction or Increase
of Commitments and Loans. 
 (a) Voluntary and Mandatory Reductions. 

(i) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, or from time to
time permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments; provided, that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five (5) Business Days prior to the date of termination or
reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments if, after
giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, (A) the Total Revolving Outstandings 

  
 48 

 
would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments or (B) with respect to any Aggregate Revolving Commitment reduction or termination, the Total Facility Outstandings would exceed the
Borrowing Base, and (iv) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, such Sublimit shall be
automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. 
 (ii) The Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall automatically be
reduced to zero ($0) upon the termination or expiration of the Availability Period. 
 (b) Increases of Commitments or Loans. The
Borrower may at any time and from time to time, upon prior written notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, increase the Aggregate Revolving Commitments (but not the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit) or increase the
total original principal amount of Closing Date Term Loans by a maximum aggregate amount of up to FIVE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS ($500,000,000) as follows: 

(i) Increase in Aggregate Revolving Commitments. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, upon prior written

Revolving Loans among the Lenders to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Loans ratable with any revised Revolving Commitments arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Commitments under this Section. 

(F) as a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each
Loan Party dated as of the date of such increase (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (1) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such
increase, and (2) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (x) the representations and warranties contained in Article VI and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all
material respects on and as of the date of such increase, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date

be deemed revised to reflect the new Revolving Commitments and Applicable Percentages of the applicable Lenders. 
 (I) the

Agent, institute one or more additional term loans (each an “Incremental Term Loan”); provided that 

(A) any such increase shall be in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof. 
 (B) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and be continuing at the time of any such increase. 

(C) no existing Lender shall be under any obligation to participate in any Incremental Term Loan and any such decision whether

 50 

 (G) as a condition precedent to such Incremental Term Loan, the Borrower shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent a Pro Forma Compliance Certificate demonstrating that, upon giving effect to such Incremental Term Loan, on a Pro Forma Basis, (1) the Loan Parties would be in compliance with the financial covenants set
forth in Section 8.11 as of the first day of the four calendar quarter period ending as of the most recent calendar quarter end preceding the date of such increase with respect to which the Administrative Agent has received the Required
Financial Information and (2) the Total Facility Outstandings do not exceed the Borrowing Base.

Incremental Term Loans and/or Revolving Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) exceed the interest rates set forth in Section 2.08 for the Tranche B Term Loans by more than 50 basis points, then the interest rates set
forth in Section 2.08 for the Tranche B Term Loans shall increase by the Yield Differential (it being understood that any increase in the weighted average interest rates may (i) take the form of original issue discount
(“OID”) or upfront fees, with such OID or upfront fees being equated to such interest margins in a manner determined by the Administrative Agent and consistent with generally accepted financial practice based on an assumed four-year
life to maturity or (ii) be accomplished by a combination of an increase in the weighted average interest rates, OID and/or upfront fees). 

(iv) The effectiveness of any increase under this Section 2.06(b) shall, in each case, be subject to the securing
of additional commitments from existing Lenders, each in its sole discretion, or the obtaining of commitments of one or more new lending institutions, each of which new lending institutions must be an Eligible Assignee and otherwise acceptable to
the Borrower, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and the Administrative Agent. 
 (v) After giving effect to all increases under
this Section 2.06(b), in no event shall the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, together with the total original principal amount of Closing Date Term Loans, in the aggregate, exceed ONE BILLION FIVE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS

principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 

(b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

(ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due
(without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then, unless otherwise agreed to by the Required Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum
at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 
 (iii) Upon the request of the
Required Lenders, while any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default predicated on the failure of the Borrower to pay amounts due under the Loan Documents, as addressed in subclauses (i) and (ii) above) exists, the Borrower shall
pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

(iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon
demand. 
 (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other

 52 

 2.09. Fees. 

In addition to certain fees described in subsections (h) and (i) of Section 2.03: 

(a) Revolver Unused Fees. The Borrower shall, for each day during the term of this Agreement on which there exist any Revolving
Commitments, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment (in accordance with such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof), an unused fee (the “Revolver Unused Fee”) equal to the
Unused Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Revolving Commitments exceed the Total Revolver Outstandings (less the amount of any outstanding Swing Line Loans) as of such date. The Revolver Unused Fee shall accrue at all
times during the term of this Agreement on which there exist any Revolving Commitments, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article V is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the
last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing on June 30, 2013 (with such initial payment to include such fees commencing from the Closing Date), and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date; provided, that
(A) no Revolver Unused Fee shall accrue on the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender and (B) any Revolver Unused Fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting
Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. The Revolver Unused Fee shall be calculated quarterly
in arrears, based on the applicable daily Unused Rates during each day of such quarter. 
 (b) Other Fees. The Borrower shall pay to
each Arranger and the Administrative Agent, for their own respective accounts, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the applicable Fee Letter (without duplication of fees otherwise referenced herein). Such fees shall be fully earned
when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 
 2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustment of Applicable
Margin. 
 (a) All computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which
results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the
day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent
of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (b) If, as a result of any
restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Funded Indebtedness to Total Asset Value Ratio, as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable
date, was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Funded Indebtedness to Total Asset Value Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to
the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for
relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the
amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period; provided, however, the Administrative Agent shall be required to make any demand pursuant to
this Section 2.10(b) within six months of the first date that the Administrative Agent had actual knowledge of any such inaccurate calculation. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, under Section 2.03(c)(iii), 2.03(h) or 2.08(b) or under Article IX. The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments of all of the
Lenders and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. 
 2.11. Evidence of Debt. 

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records (including the Register maintained pursuant
to Section 11.06(c)) maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. Such accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error
of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower
hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records 

  
 53 

 
maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent (including the Register
maintained pursuant to Section 11.06(c)) shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) a promissory note which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each such promissory note shall (i) in the case of Revolving Loans, be in the form of Exhibit D-1 (a
“Revolving Note”), (ii) in the case of the Closing Date Term Loans, be in the form of Exhibit D-2(a) (a “Closing Date Term Note”), (iii) in the case of the Tranche B Term Loans, be in the form
of Exhibit D-2(b) (a “Tranche B Term Note”) and (iv) in the case of the Swing Line Loans, be in the form of Exhibit D-3 (the “Swing Line Note”). Each Lender may attach schedules to its
Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. 
 (b) In
addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records (including the Register maintained pursuant to
Section 11.06(c)) evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the
accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent (including the Register maintained pursuant to Section 11.06(c)) shall control in the absence of manifest error. 

2.12. Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. 

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative
Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as
provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and
any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be
reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 
 (b) Fundings and Payments; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. 

(i) Funding by Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed
date (or, with respect to a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to the proposed time) of any Committed Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Committed Borrowing, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event,
if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the
case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (B) in the case of a payment to be made
by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the
Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in
such Committed Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

  
 54 

 (ii) Payments by Borrower. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder 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 upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact
made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds
with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative
Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the
Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Failure to
Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to
the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article V or Section 6 of the Amendment Agreement are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms
hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Committed Loans and to fund participations in
Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 11.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under
Section 11.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Committed
Loan, purchase its participation or make its payment pursuant to Section 11.04(c). 
 (e) Funding Source. Nothing herein
shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

 2.13. Sharing of Payments by Lenders. 

If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest
on any of the Committed Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans held by it (excluding any amounts applied by the Swing Line Lender to outstanding Swing Line Loans and excluding any amounts received by the
L/C Issuer and/or the Swing Line Lender to secure the obligations of a Defaulting Lender to fund risk participations hereunder) resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Committed Loans or
participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and
(b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, 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 Committed Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that: 

(i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is
recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and 

  
 55 

 (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to
(x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Committed
Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). 

Each Loan Party 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 such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such
participation. 
 2.14. Cash Collateral. 

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer (i) if the L/C Issuer has honored
any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall,
in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). 

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be
maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at the Administrative Agent. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender) and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so
provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be
applied pursuant to Section 2.14(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount
of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative
Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency. 
 (c) Application. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.14 or Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.15 or 9.02 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans shall
be held and applied in satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other
obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided herein. 
 (d)
Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations
giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral or (iii) repayment in full of
the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted), together with termination of all Commitments hereunder; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on
behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.14 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 9.03) and
(y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations. 

  
 56 

 2.15. Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then,
until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 
 (i) Waivers
and Amendment. The 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 Section 11.01. 

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amount received by the Administrative
Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article IX or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 11.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;
second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the L/C
Issuer or Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or
Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing
to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender as a result of any final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of
that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any final and non-appealable judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise
directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that, if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share
and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all
non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender. 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 or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.15(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents
hereto. 
 (iii) Certain Fees. The Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee
pursuant to Section 2.09(a) for any period during which such 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 such Defaulting
Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.03(h). 

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a
Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.04, the
“Applicable Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (x) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date
the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (y) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans
shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of that Lender. 

  
 57 

 (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender
and the L/C Issuer agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be 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 (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take
such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determined to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders
in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv)), whereupon that 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; 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 having been a Defaulting Lender. 

2.16. Funds Transfer Disbursements. 

(a) Generally. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by any Lender or any
Affiliate of a Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Transfer Authorizer Designation Form. The Borrower agrees to be bound by any transfer request:
(i) authorized or transmitted by the Borrower; or, (ii) made in the Borrower’s name and accepted by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in compliance with these transfer instructions, even if not properly authorized by the
Borrower. The Borrower further agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may rely solely on any bank routing number or identifying bank account number or name provided by the Borrower to effect a wire of funds transfer even if the
information provided by the Borrower identifies a different bank or account holder than named by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent is not obligated or required in any way to take any actions to detect errors in information provided by the
Borrower. If the Administrative Agent takes any actions in an attempt to detect errors in the transmission or content of transfer or requests or takes any actions in an attempt to detect unauthorized funds transfer requests, the Borrower agrees that
no matter how many times the Administrative Agent takes these actions the Administrative Agent will not in any situation be liable for failing to take or correctly perform these actions in the future and such actions shall not become any part of the
transfer disbursement procedures authorized under this provision, the Loan Documents, or any agreement between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to notify the Administrative Agent of any errors in the transfer of any
funds or of any unauthorized or improperly authorized transfer requests within fourteen (14) days after the Administrative Agent’s confirmation to the Borrower of such transfer. 

(b) Funds Transfer. The Administrative Agent will, in its sole discretion, determine the funds transfer system and the means by which
each transfer will be made. The Administrative Agent may delay or refuse to accept a funds transfer request if the transfer would: (i) violate the terms of this authorization (ii) require use of a bank unacceptable to the Administrative
Agent or any Lender or prohibited by any Governmental Authority; (iii) cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Federal Reserve or other regulatory risk control program or guideline, or (iv) otherwise cause the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Law or regulation. 
 (c) Limitation of Liability. Neither the Administrative
Agent, the L/C Issuer nor any Lender shall be liable to the Borrower or any other parties for (i) errors, acts or failures to act of others, including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through which the
Borrower’s transfers may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such entity shall be deemed an agent of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender, (ii) any loss, liability or delay caused by fires, earthquakes,
wars, civil disturbances, power surges or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal constraints or other events beyond Administrative Agent’s, L/C Issuer’s or any Lender’s control, or
(iii) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, whether or not (x) any claim for these damages is based on tort or contract or (y) the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, any Lender or the Borrower knew or should
have known the likelihood of these damages in any situation. Neither the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer nor any Lender makes any representations or warranties other than those expressly made in this Agreement. 

  
 58 

 2.17. Recourse. 

The Obligations shall be fully, jointly and severally, recourse to Borrower, Guarantors and all of their respective assets. 

ARTICLE III.  
 TAXES,
YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
 3.01. Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrower or an applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable law to deduct any
Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower or applicable withholding agent shall make
such deductions and (iii) the Borrower or applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay
any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Borrower.

 (i) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the L/C Issuer, within ten (10) days after
demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or
the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. The Borrower shall also, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender or the L/C Issuer for any
reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required by clause (ii) of this subsection. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(ii) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, each Lender and the L/C Issuer shall, and does
hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already done so and without limiting the Borrower’s obligation to do so), and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after
demand therefor, against any and all Taxes (including any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.07(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register) and any and all related
losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and reasonable expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by any Governmental
Authority and attributable to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Lender and

  
 59 

 
the L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). The agreements in this clause (ii) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or
the replacement of, a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. 

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower 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) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to
an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed
documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident for tax
purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender
under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, (or successor form) claiming
eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, 
 (ii) duly completed copies of
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor form), 
 (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of
the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10
percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, (or successor form), or 
 (iv) any other form (including, for
example, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, or successor form) prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary
documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

In addition, each Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and 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 Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by
the Administrative Agent or the Borrower sufficient for the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether payments to such Lender are subject to withholding tax under FATCA. Solely for
purposes of this paragraph, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

  
 60 

 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes
obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to
file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or the L/C Issuer, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the
case may be. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the
Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with
respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant
Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest
or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental
Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any
other Person. 
 (g) Certain Terms. For purposes of this Section 3.01, the term “Lender” includes any L/C
Issuer and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 
 3.02. Illegality. 

If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender
or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such
Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate
Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such
notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period
therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower
shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 
 3.03. Inability to Determine Rates. 

If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or
continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (c) the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be
suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar
Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 

  
 61 

 3.04. Increased Costs. 

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate) or the L/C Issuer; 

(ii) subject any Lender or the L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of
Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by
Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer); or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this
Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be
to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any
Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other
amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such
additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines that any
Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or
participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved
but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the
Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction
suffered. 
 (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower
shall pay such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to
the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, 

  
 62 

 
notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except
that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 

3.05. Compensation for Losses. 

Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for
and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 
 (a) any continuation, conversion, payment or
prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 

(b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any
Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or 
 (c) any assignment or other termination of a
Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 11.13 or in connection with Section 2.06(b); 

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan
or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. 

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded
each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate
Loan was in fact so funded. 
 3.06. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or 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 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use
reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as
applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any
Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation
under Section 3.04, 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 3.01, the Borrower may replace such Lender in
accordance with Section 11.13. 
 3.07. Survival. 

All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and
repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. 

  
 63 

 ARTICLE IV. 

GUARANTY 
 4.01. The Guaranty.

 Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantees to each Lender, each Affiliate of a Lender that enters into a Swap
Contract or Treasury Management Agreement with a Loan Party, the Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer as hereinafter provided, as primary obligor and not as surety, the prompt payment of the Obligations in full when due (whether at stated maturity,
as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory Cash Collateralization or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. The Guarantors hereby further agree that if any of the Obligations are not paid in full when due (whether
at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory Cash Collateralization or otherwise), the Guarantors will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of
any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory Cash Collateralization or otherwise) in
accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of
the Loan Documents, Swap Contracts or Treasury Management Agreements, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such
obligations subject to avoidance under the Debtor Relief Laws, any comparable provisions of any applicable state Law or any applicable corporate or other organizational Laws relating to the ability of an entity to approve and authorize or make
Guarantees or Indebtedness (or the effectiveness of any such approval or authorization or making) in excess of an amount that would render such entity insolvent or such other amount as may be established by such Law. 

4.02. Obligations Unconditional. 

The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 4.01 are joint and several, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value,
genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents, Swap Contracts or Treasury Management Agreements, or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or any substitution, release, impairment or exchange of any
other guarantee of or security for any of the Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a
surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 4.02 that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no
right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrower or any other Guarantor for amounts paid under this Article IV until such time as the Obligations have been Fully Satisfied. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall remain absolute and
unconditional as described above: 
 (a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any
performance of or compliance with any of the Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; 

(b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, any Swap Contract or Treasury Management
Agreement between any Loan Party and any Lender, or any Affiliate of a Lender, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Loan Documents or such Swap Contracts or Treasury Management Agreements shall be done or omitted; 

(c) the maturity of any of the Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or
amended in any respect, or any right under any of the Loan Documents, any Swap Contract or Treasury Management Agreement between any Loan Party and any Lender, or any Affiliate of a Lender, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the
Loan Documents, such Swap Contracts or such Treasury Management Agreements shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Obligations or any security therefor shall be released, impaired or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt
with; 

  
 64 

 (d) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any Lender
or Lenders as security for any of the Obligations shall fail to attach or be perfected; or 
 (e) any of the Obligations
shall be determined to be void or voidable (including, without limitation, for the benefit of any creditor of any Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of any Guarantor). 

With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all
notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Loan Documents, any Swap Contract or Treasury Management Agreement between any Loan
Party and any Lender, or any Affiliate of a Lender, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Loan Documents, such Swap Contracts or such Treasury Management Agreements, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or
security for, any of the Obligations. 
 4.03. Reinstatement. 

The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article IV shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason
any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each
Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such
Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law. 
 4.04. Certain Additional Waivers. 

Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of recourse to security for the Obligations, except through the exercise of
rights of subrogation pursuant to Section 4.02 and through the exercise of rights of contribution pursuant to Section 4.06. 

4.05. Remedies. 
 The Guarantors
agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and the Lenders, on the other hand, the Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided
in Section 9.02 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Section 9.02) for purposes of Section 4.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing the Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or the Obligations being deemed to have become automatically
due and payable), the Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 4.01. The Guarantors acknowledge and agree that their obligations
hereunder are secured in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents and that the Lenders may exercise their remedies thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof. 

4.06. Rights of Contribution. 
 The
Guarantors hereby agree as among themselves that, in connection with payments made hereunder, each Guarantor shall have a right of contribution from each other Guarantor in accordance with applicable Law. Such contribution rights shall be
subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Obligations until such time as the Obligations have been Fully Satisfied, and none of the Guarantors shall exercise any such contribution rights until the Obligations have been Fully Satisfied. 

  
 65 

 4.07. Guarantee of Payment; Continuing Guarantee. 

The guarantee in this Article IV is a guaranty of payment and not of collection, is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all
Obligations whenever arising. 
 4.08. Keepwell. 

Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other
support as may be needed from time to time by each Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Contracts (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 4.08
for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 4.08, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent
transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the Obligations have been Fully Satisfied. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends
that this Section 4.08 constitute, and this Section 4.08 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the
Commodity Exchange Act.

provided, that (A) in the case of general liability insurance, coverage equal to or in excess of $100,000,000 per occurrence/annual aggregate shall not be deemed to be “materially less” coverage for purposes of this provision
and (B) with respect to “all risk” coverage of the Loan Parties in excess of $50,000,000, the A.M. Best rating of the applicable insurer may be less than A- and/or have a financial size category of less than VII to the extent
requested by the Parent and consented to by the Administrative Agent (such consent to be in the absolute discretion of the Administrative Agent). The Loan Parties will deliver to the Administrative Agent upon request of the Administrative Agent from
time to time full information as to the insurance carried and within ten (10) days of receipt of notice from any insurer a copy of any notice of cancellation or material change in coverage from that existing on the Closing Date. 

(b) If any loss occurs at any time when any applicable Loan Party has failed to perform any of the covenants and agreements set forth in this
Section 7.07 with respect to any insurance payable because of loss sustained to any part of the Borrowing Base Properties or the Property related thereto, whether or not such insurance is required by Administrative Agent, Administrative
Agent shall (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) nevertheless be entitled to the benefit of all insurance covering the loss and held by or for any such Loan Party, to the same extent as if it had been made payable to Administrative Agent. Upon
any foreclosure hereof or transfer of title to any Borrowing Base Property in extinguishment of the whole or any part of the Obligations, all of the applicable Loan Party’s right, title and interest in and to the insurance policies referred to
in this Agreement (including unearned premiums) and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at foreclosure or other such transferee, to the extent permissible under such policies. Insurance proceeds from any loss
with respect to any Borrowing Base Property (or the Property related thereto) shall also be subject to the following terms and conditions: 

(i) Administrative Agent shall (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) have the right (but not the obligation) to make proof
of loss for, settle and adjust any claim under, and receive the proceeds of, all insurance for loss of or damage to the Borrowing Base Properties or the Property related thereto regardless of whether or not such insurance policies are required by
Administrative Agent, and the expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall be a part of the Obligations and shall be due and payable to Administrative Agent in accordance with
Section 11.04 hereof. Administrative Agent shall not be, under any circumstances, liable or responsible for failure to collect or exercise diligence in the collection of any of such proceeds or for the obtaining, maintaining or adequacy
of any insurance or for failure to see to the proper application of any amount paid over to any Loan Party. 

  
 82 

 (ii) To the extent any of the proceeds related to insurance coverage with respect
to any of the Borrowing Base Properties or the Property related thereto (the “BBP Insurance Proceeds”) are delivered to or otherwise obtained by the Parent or any other Loan Party and are (A) in the aggregate, in a gross amount
in excess of $50,000,000 (the applicable casualty constituting, in such case, a “Substantial Casualty”) or (B) the Parent and Loan Parties do not intend to use such BBP Insurance Proceeds for the purpose of restoring or
rebuilding the applicable Borrowing Base Property or the Property related thereto, such proceeds shall be immediately delivered to the Administrative Agent to be held or applied in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.07(b).
Prior to any required delivery of BBP Insurance Proceeds by the Loan Parties to the Administrative Agent, such BBP Insurance Proceeds shall be held in escrow by the applicable Loan Party(ies) for the account and benefit of the Administrative Agent
and the Secured Parties. 
 (iii) Any BBP Insurance Proceeds received by Administrative Agent (whether from the applicable
insurer or from a Loan Party pursuant to subclause (ii) above) shall, after deduction therefrom of all reasonable expenses actually incurred by Administrative Agent in the collection of the same, including attorneys’ fees, be (A) held
by the Administrative Agent in escrow in a cash collateral account subject to a first priority security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), to the extent such BBP Insurance Proceeds relate to a
Substantial Casualty and the Parent has elected to fully rebuild, reconstruct and restore the Property pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.07(b); (B) applied by the Administrative Agent to the Obligations
in the priority set forth in Section 2.05(b)(vii), to the extent the Parent has elected not to fully rebuild, reconstruct and restore the Property pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.07(b)
(provided, that the Parent will have a period of sixty (60) days following the delivery of such proceeds to the Administrative Agent in which to deliver written notice to the Administrative Agent stating whether it intends to rebuild,
reconstruct and restore the Property or cause such proceeds to be applied to the Obligations and the details of same and provided, further, that any failure to deliver any such notice shall evidence the Parent’s election to cause such proceeds
to be applied to the Obligations in accordance with this subclause (iii)(B)); or (C) delivered to the Parent or any Loan Party designated by the Parent for the purpose of financing the rebuilding, reconstruction and restoration of the
applicable Property, to the extent such BBP Insurance Proceeds do not relate to a Substantial Casualty and the Parent has elected to fully rebuild, reconstruct and restore the Property pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this
Section 7.07(b); provided, that, if (1) the BBP Insurance Proceeds paid in connection with any given casualty event are in excess of the amount that is spent on the reconstruction, rebuilding or restoration of the
applicable Borrowing Base Property, (2) the Parent requests in writing the return of such funds following the completion of such rebuilding, reconstruction and restoration and (3) there is no then-continuing Default or Event of Default,
the Administrative Agent shall return such excess funds to the Parent. The Parent and each Loan Party hereby assigns to, and grants Administrative Agent a security interest in, all BBP Insurance Proceeds (prior to application thereof) and to any
escrow account established pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.07(b) and in the funds held therein to secure the payment and performance of the Obligations. 

(c) In the event that the Parent elects to cause the full rebuilding, restoration and reconstruction of any Borrowing Base Property or the
Property related thereto following any casualty resulting in BBP Insurance Proceeds, the Parent and Loan Parties shall (A) if such BBP Insurance Proceeds relate to a Substantial Casualty, (1) certify to the Administrative Agent that, in
its good faith judgment, such casualty event is covered by the insurance held by the Parent or the applicable Loan Party; (2) deliver all information required by the applicable insurer for processing of the applicable claim within thirty
(30) days of the occurrence of such event (or, to the extent delivery within such time frame is not reasonably possible, as soon as reasonably practicable following such event); (3) upon receipt of the applicable BBP Insurance Proceeds or,
if earlier, upon receipt of the applicable insurer’s confirmation of the approved amounts thereof, deliver evidence to the Administrative Agent (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) that there are sufficient
funds from such BBP Insurance Proceeds (or prospective BBP Insurance Proceeds) and from cash and Cash Equivalents available to the applicable Loan Party, if needed, to completely restore or repair the applicable Property to its use, value and
condition immediately prior to the casualty as well as to maintain compliance with the financial and other covenants set forth herein; and (4) proceed to use commercially reasonable good faith efforts to pursue and resolve such claim with the
applicable insurer as expeditiously as is reasonably possible without compromising any material rights of the Parent or any other Loan Party with respect to such claim; (B) diligently commence to (1) prepare (or cause to be prepared) all
plans and specifications with respect to the full rebuilding, reconstruction and restoration of the applicable Property

respects acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, and (2) enter into any necessary engineering, architects and construction contracts required to fully complete such rebuilding, reconstruction and restoration on
reasonable market-based terms and conditions; provided, that the Parent shall, in the case of a Substantial Casualty, complete items (1) and (2) of this subclause (iv)(B) within twelve (12) months following the applicable
casualty event in a manner that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable discretion and shall, within (6) months following the applicable casualty, provide preliminary plans and specifications and a summary budget with
respect to the applicable restoration; (C) in the case of any Substantial Casualty, deposit into the escrow account being maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (iii) above any amount of cash and Cash Equivalents (in

condition immediately prior to the casualty; provided, that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, at the expense of the Loan Parties, to consult such professionals as Administrative Agent may deem necessary, in its sole discretion, to
determine the total costs of restoring the applicable Property; (D) cause the applicable rebuilding, reconstruction and restoration to be diligently completed in a workmanlike manner under, if necessary for such rebuilding, reconstruction and
restoration, the supervision of an architect and/or engineer selected and paid for by the Parent or the Loan Parties but, in the case of a Substantial Casualty, approved in advance by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, and, in
the case of a Substantial Casualty, by a general contractor who must be acceptable in all material respects to Administrative Agent, in its reasonable discretion and who shall have, if required by the Administrative Agent, obtained (1) payment
and performance bonds from a corporate surety reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and naming Administrative Agent as dual obligee or (2) such other protections concerning performance of the applicable contractor as may be reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and (E) have otherwise complied with any of the terms, conditions or restrictions set forth herein or in any Mortgage Instrument or other Loan Document with respect to the consummation of such
rebuilding, reconstruction and restoration. If any of the foregoing conditions are not satisfied, Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion (subject to the direction of the Required Lenders), apply all BBP Insurance Proceeds held by it to the
payment of the Obligations in accordance with the priorities established pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(vii). 

(i) With respect to BBP Insurance Proceeds held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this
Section 7.07(b) in connection with any Substantial Casualty, the Administrative Agent shall, following the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in subclauses (iv)(A) and (iv)(B)(1) and (2), disburse such BBP Insurance Proceeds to the
Parent or any Loan Party for the payment of invoices related to the rebuilding, reconstruction or restoration of the applicable Property (A) to the extent the Administrative Agent will not incur any liability to any other person as a result of
such use or release of such BBP Insurance Proceeds; (B) subject to such holdbacks and other terms, conditions and restrictions as may be in accordance with the construction lending practices of the Administrative Agent and (C) to the
extent no Default or Event of Default is then-continuing. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary,
(1) immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, Administrative Agent may cease the distribution of any amounts related to the BBP Insurance Proceeds or otherwise held in the escrow account related thereto until
such Default is cured or waived by the Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof; (2) immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Administrative Agent may apply all BBP Insurance Proceeds and any other

 (e) Regardless
of whether any BBP Insurance Proceeds are applied to reduce the Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Section 7.07(b), the unpaid portion of the Obligations shall remain in full force and effect and the payment thereof shall not be
excused. The Loan Parties shall at all times comply with the requirements of the insurance policies required hereunder and of the issuers of such policies and of any board of underwriters or similar body as applicable to or affecting the Borrowing
Base Properties or the Property related thereto.

proceeding for condemnation affecting any Borrowing Base Property or the Property related thereto or arising out of damage to any Borrowing Base Property or the Property related thereto, and Parent shall, at Parent’s expense, diligently
prosecute any such proceedings. Administrative Agent shall (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) have the right (but not the obligation) to participate in any such proceeding and to be represented by counsel of its own choice. Proceeds related to
any condemnation event with respect to any Borrowing Base Property or the Property related thereto shall also be subject to the following terms and conditions:

rebuilding or restoration of the applicable Borrowing Base Property, (2) the Parent requests in writing the return of such funds following the completion of such rebuilding, reconstruction
and restoration and (3) there is no then-continuing Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall return such excess funds to the Parent. The Parent and each Loan Party hereby assigns to, and grants Administrative Agent a security

Property or the Property related thereto following any condemnation resulting in BBP Condemnation Proceeds, the Parent and Loan Parties shall (A) if such BBP Condemnation Proceeds relate to a Substantial Condemnation, provide to the
Administrative Agent, within thirty (30) days of the related condemnation event (or, to the extent delivery within such time frame is not reasonably possible, as soon as reasonably practicable following such event), evidence satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion that there are sufficient funds from the BBP Condemnation Proceeds and from cash and Cash Equivalents available to the applicable Loan Party, if needed, to completely restore or repair the applicable

 (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied
duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or
exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such
other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its
counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and 
 (c) shall not,
except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or
obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be
liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith
shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.01 and 9.02) or (ii) 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 notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or the L/C Issuer. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent. 
 10.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. 

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate,
consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the
proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance
with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is
satisfactory to such Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. 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. 

  
 104 

 10.05. Delegation of Duties. 

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by
or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The
exculpatory provisions 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 their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit
facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 
 10.06. Resignation/Removal of Administrative Agent. 

The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Borrower. In addition, the
Administrative Agent may be removed at the written direction of the Required Lenders to the extent the Administrative Agent is shown to be grossly negligent in the performance of its material obligations and/or duties hereunder or to have engaged in
willful misconduct in the performance of such obligations and/or duties; provided, that any such removal of an Administrative Agent shall also constitute its removal as L/C Issuer. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation or upon any
removal of the Administrative Agent by the Required Lenders, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such
bank with an office in the United States. In the case of a retiring Administrative Agent, if no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the
retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above;
provided, that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and
(1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders
or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and
determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for
above in this Section. In the case of the removal of an Administrative Agent by the Required Lenders, such removal shall constitute the immediate termination of such Administrative Agent’s position hereunder and (1) the removed
Administrative Agent shall be immediately discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the
L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and
determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for
above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) or
removed Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this
Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative
Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed 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 or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 

Any resignation by or removal of an Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation or removal as L/C Issuer and Swing
Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, 

  
 105 

 
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring or removed L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective
duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other
arrangement satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit. 

10.07. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. 

Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers,
directors, employees, agents, advisors, counsel, attorneys in fact or other affiliates has made any representations or warranties to the L/C Issuer or such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of
the affairs of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to the L/C Issuer or any Lender. Each of the Lenders and the L/C
Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on
the financial statements of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the
other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent,
any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its
own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan Documents or any
other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary. Except for notices, reports and other documents and
information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender
or the L/C Issuer with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into
possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or other Affiliates. Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that the Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Lender or the L/C Issuer. 

10.08. No Other Duties, Etc. 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers, Syndication Agents or Documentation Agents listed on the
cover page hereof or to the Existing Credit Agreement or Amendment Agreement shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative
Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder. 
 10.09. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. 

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of
whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise 

  
 106 

 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations (other than obligations under Swap Contracts and Treasury Management Agreements to which the Administrative Agent is not a party) that are owing and unpaid and to file such other
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C
Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h) and (i), 2.09 and 11.04) allowed
in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to
distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding
is hereby authorized by each Lender and the L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay
to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under
Sections 2.09 and 11.04. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize
or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in
respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 10.10. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. 

The Lenders and the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, 

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of
the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, (ii) that is transferred or to be transferred as part of
or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document (provided, that in the case of any transfer of a Borrowing Base Property, such transfer shall be accompanied by the prepayment (if any) of the Obligations
required pursuant to Section 2.05(b)), or (iii) subject to Section 11.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; 

(b) to release, upon the written request of Borrower, any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if (x) such Person ceases to
be a Subsidiary of the Parent as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder or (y) such Person (or all of its assets) are otherwise sold, transferred or disposed of by the Parent or another applicable Loan Party and, after giving effect to
such sale, transfer or disposition, (A) Parent, on a Pro Forma Basis, is in compliance with all financial covenants contained herein (including, without limitation, the covenants set forth in Sections 8.02(f) and 8.11),
(B) after giving effect thereto, the Total Facility Outstandings do not exceed the Borrowing Base, (C) no Defaults or Events of Default exist as of the date of the requested release and (D) Parent certifies in writing to the
satisfaction of the above-noted conditions; and 
 (c) to subordinate any Lien on any Property granted to the Administrative Agent under the
Loan Documents to the holder of any Lien on such Property that is permitted by Section 8.01(i) for Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 8.03(g). 

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority
to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 10.11. 

  
 107

(a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender
where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to
such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Administrative Agent’s recommended course

 ARTICLE XI. 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 11.01. Amendments,
Etc. 
 No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the
Borrower, the Parent or any other Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower, the Parent or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may be, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent,
and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall: 

(a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 9.02) without the
written consent of such Lender (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 5.02 or of any Default or Event of Default or mandatory reduction in the Commitments shall not constitute a
change in the terms of any Commitment of any Lender); provided, however, that this clause shall not be deemed to prevent the Required Lenders and Loan Parties from approving (i) any increase in the aggregate Commitments of the
Lenders hereunder (to the extent such increase does not increase the Commitment of any individual Lender without such Lender’s written consent); and/or (ii) the addition of one or more borrowing tranches to this Agreement and providing for
the ratable sharing of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the other then-outstanding Obligations in respect of the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding under such additional borrowing tranche(s) and the

favor of such Persons under any or all of subsections (b) through (j) (inclusive) of this Section 11.01 corresponding to the consent rights of the other Lenders thereunder; 

(b) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment (excluding mandatory prepayments) of principal,
interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 

(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or L/C Borrowing, or any fees or other amounts payable
hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of
“Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest or Letter of Credit Fees at the Default Rate; 
 (d)
change Section 2.12 or Section 9.03 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 

(e) change any provision of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the
number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 

  
 108 

 (f) except as the result of or in connection with a Disposition permitted by and pursuant to
Section 8.05, release all or substantially all of the Collateral without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 

(g) (i) release the Borrower or (ii) except as the result of or in connection with a dissolution or merger of a Guarantor permitted by
Section 8.04 or a Disposition of all or substantially all of such Guarantor’s assets permitted by and pursuant to Section 8.05, or except to the extent permitted by Section 10.10, release any Guarantor from
its respective obligations under the Loan Documents without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 
 (h) without the
consent of Required Revolving Lenders, (i) waive any Default or Event of Default for purposes of the funding of a Revolving Loan under Section 5.02(b); (ii) amend, change, waive, discharge or terminate
Section 2.01(a), 2.02 or 2.03 or (iii) amend or change any provision of this Section 11.01(h); or

forth on Schedule 1.01(b) or otherwise permit any additional Property to be treated as a “Borrowing Base Property” for purposes of this Agreement; provided, that this provision shall not be deemed to restrict the removal of
Properties from Schedule 1.01(b) to the extent otherwise permitted herein. 
 and, provided further, that (i) no amendment,
waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the L/C Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any Issuer Document relating to any Letter of Credit issued or
to be issued by it (including, without limitation, the priority of any payments, indemnities or reimbursements due to the L/C Issuer hereunder); (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative

to the Administrative Agent); (iii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this
Agreement; and (iv) any Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the applicable parties thereto. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms directly affects the rights or
duties under this Agreement of a particular Class of Lenders (but not each Class of Lenders) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders
that would be required to consent thereto under this Section 11.01 if such Class or Classes of Lenders were the only Class or Classes of Lenders hereunder at the time. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Loan Document but subject to the proviso in Section 9.01(b), (i) no
Tranche B Term Lender shall have any right to exercise, or direct the Administrative Agent to exercise or refrain from exercising, any right or remedy arising or available hereunder or under any other Loan Document upon the occurrence or during the
continuance of a Default or an Event of Default if the only such Default or Event of Default that shall have occurred and be continuing is a Financial Covenant Default, (ii) prior to the Closing Date Term Loan Maturity Date with respect to the
Closing Date Term Loan Facility or the Revolving Credit Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, no Tranche B Term Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove (X) any amendment or modification to
Section 8.11, (Y) any waiver of a Financial Covenant Default or (Z) any amendment or modification to the definition of “Required Covenant Lenders” and (iii) it is understood and agreed that any Tranche B Term
Loans held by any Tranche B Term Lender shall be excluded from any vote of the Lenders (and shall be deemed to not be outstanding) for the purposes described in clause (i) above and clause (ii) above, including in determining whether the
“Required Covenant Lenders” have directed the Administrative Agent to exercise or refrain from exercising any such rights or remedies or to approve or disapprove any such amendment, modification or waiver. For the avoidance of doubt
(a) nothing in this paragraph shall in any way limit or restrict the rights or remedies of the Tranche B Term Lenders in connection with any Default or Event of Default other than a Financial Covenant Default (whether arising before or after
the occurrence of the Financial 

  
 109 

 
Covenant Default) or the right of any Tranche B Term Lenders to approve or disapprove any amendment or modification to any other provision hereof or of any other Loan Document or to waive any
Default or Event of Default other than a Financial Covenant Default and (b) after the occurrence of the Closing Date Term Loan Maturity Date with respect to the Closing Date Term Loan Facility or the Revolving Credit Maturity Date with respect
to the Revolving Credit Facility, the Tranche B Term Lenders will have a right to approve or disapprove the actions specified in clauses (ii)(X), (ii)(Y) and (ii)(Z) of this paragraph. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent
hereunder, except that (x) the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended, or amounts due to it permanently reduced (other than by way of payment) or the payment date of any outstanding amounts owing to it extended, without the
consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the
consent of such Defaulting Lender. 
 Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above,
(x) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous
consent provisions set forth herein and (y) the Required Lenders shall determine whether or not to allow a Loan Party to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding and such determination shall be binding on all
of the Lenders. 
 11.02. Notices; Effectiveness of Electronic Communications. 

(a) Notices Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except

 (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the
Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall
not apply to notices to any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to Article II if such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic
communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of
such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 
 Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes,
(i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as

notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective
address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at
least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its
delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public

other Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Committed Loan Notices and Swing Line Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner
specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender, each other Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or
on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 

(e) Delivery of Documents to Lenders. Promptly upon any Lender’s reasonable request, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to
such Lender any materials or information delivered by any Loan Party to it in its capacity as Administrative Agent hereunder. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to the Lenders any notices or other materials received by it
indicating the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default hereunder, in each case, to the extent such notices or materials are clearly marked as a “Notice of Default/Event of Default” or Administrative Agent has actual
knowledge that such notices or other materials contain such information. 
 (f) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS
IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE
BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY
ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender,
the L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials
through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive
damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 

  
 111 

 11.03. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 

No failure by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right,
remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the
Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuer; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its
own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that
inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 11.08
(subject to the terms of Section 2.13), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law;
and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of
the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders. 
 11.04. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage
Waiver. 
 (a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (without duplication of other amounts required to be paid by
Borrower hereunder): (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the
syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or
thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the L/C Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter
of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lenders (including the fees, charges and
disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer), and shall pay all fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or, during the continuance of any Event
of Default, any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or
Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 

(b) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Agent
Lender (in their respective agent capacities), each Lender and the L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (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 any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and
disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of
(i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any administration thereof, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the 

  
 112 

 
use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with
such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any
Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, 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, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE
COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party
against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any
reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each
Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (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 any such sub-agent) or the L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations
of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d). 
 (d) Waiver of
Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive
damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any
Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it
through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor. 

(f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing
Line Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 

11.05. Payments Set Aside. 
 To the
extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of
such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender in its
discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and the L/C Issuer 

  
 113 

 
severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest
thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer under clause (b) of the preceding sentence
shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 
 11.06. Successors and Assigns. 

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this
Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this
Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the
Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any
Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b),
participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided, that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(i) Minimum Amounts. 

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the
time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitment or
Revolving Loans or Closing Date Term Loan Commitments or Closing Date Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 and the aggregate amount of the Tranche B Term Loan Commitment or Tranche B Term Loans of the
assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and
Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000, in each case, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee
and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met. 

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not (A) apply to the Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of
Swing Line Loans or (B) prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among the Revolving Loan Commitments or outstanding Term Loans on a non-pro rata basis; 

  
 114 

 (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment
except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition: 
 (A) the consent of the Parent
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund or (3) Parent fails to consent or object to any such assignment within five (5) Business Days following Parent’s receipt of the request therefor; 

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such
assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; 

(C) the consent of the L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any
assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and 

(D) the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any
assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Swing Line Loans (whether or not then outstanding). 

(c) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any
assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

(i) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates
or Subsidiaries. 
 (d) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person. 

(e) Defaulting Lenders. No such assignment shall be made to a Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. 

(f) Certain Additional Payments. 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 (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then
owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing
Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable 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. 

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the
effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under
this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the 

  
 115 

 
extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption 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 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 11.04 with respect to
facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. 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 (d) of this Section. 

(g) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the
Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and stated interests on) the
Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register
information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
prior notice. 
 (h) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights
and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line 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, the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders and the L/C Issuer 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 this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 11.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to
the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 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 11.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. 

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on
which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other Obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”);
provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters
of Credit or its other Obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other Obligation is in registered form under
Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the
owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a
Participant Register. 
 (i) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Section 3.01 or 3.04 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

  
 116 

 
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 3.01 unless such Participant
agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender).

 (j) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time
pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve
Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(k) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like
import in any Assignment and Assumption (or in any amendment or modification hereof) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National
Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

(l) USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance. In order for the Administrative Agent to comply with the USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law
107-56), prior to any Lender or Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent may request, and such Lender or Participant shall provide to the
Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with federal law. 

(m) Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at
any time Wells Fargo Bank assigns all of its Revolving Commitment and Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Wells Fargo Bank may, (i) upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer
and/or (ii) upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a
successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Wells Fargo Bank as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Wells
Fargo Bank resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C
Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If Wells Fargo Bank resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall
retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or
fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time
of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Wells Fargo Bank to effectively assume the obligations of Wells Fargo Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit. 

11.07. Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. 

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below),
except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (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 purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including
any self-regulatory authority, such as the National 

  
 117 

 
Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto,
(e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder,
(f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective 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
(x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a
source other than the Borrower. 
 For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the
Parent or any Subsidiary relating to the Parent or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer on a non-confidential basis prior to
disclosure by the Parent or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Parent or any Subsidiary after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any
Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such
Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 11.08. Set-off. 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall only be withheld for the purpose of preventing any triggering of any applicable “single action” laws),
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, the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the
Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided, that in the event
that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff hereunder, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.15 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 (y) the Defaulting Lender shall
provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, the L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender
and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer agrees to
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. 

11.09. Interest Rate Limitation. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall
not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest
shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum
Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and
(c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 

  
 118 

 11.10. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an
original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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. This Agreement shall become effective when the Amendment Agreement shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall
have received counterparts thereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties thereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 11.11. Survival of Representations and Warranties. 

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in
connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by
the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and
effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. 

11.12. Severability. 
 If any
provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be
affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this
Section 11.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the L/C
Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited. 
 11.13.
Replacement of Lenders. 
 If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, 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 3.01, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to
such Lender and the Administrative Agent, provided no Default or Event of Default then exists, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by,
Section 11.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible 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 11.06(b); 
 (b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans
and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) 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); 

  
 119 

 (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, 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. 
 11.14. Governing Law; Jurisdiction;
Etc. 
 (a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK. 
 (b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF
AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION
OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH
ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES 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 THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER
OR THE L/C ISSUER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. 

(c) WAIVER OF VENUE. THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS
SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT. 

(d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN
SECTION 11.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. 

11.15. Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 EACH
PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY 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 THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO 

  
 120 

 
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON 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 AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

 11.16. USA PATRIOT Act Notice. 

Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender)
hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Act. 

11.17 Entire Agreement. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY
EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES. 
 11.17.
Subordination of Intercompany Debt. 
 Each Loan Party agrees that all intercompany Indebtedness among Loan Parties (the
“Intercompany Debt”) is subordinated in right of payment, to the prior payment in full of all Obligations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Loan Parties may make and receive payments with respect to
the Intercompany Debt to the extent otherwise permitted by this Agreement; provided, that in the event of and during the continuation of any Event of Default, no payment shall be made by or on behalf of any Loan Party on account of any
Intercompany Debt. In the event that any Loan Party receives any payment of any Intercompany Debt at a time when such payment is prohibited by this Section 11.18 hereof, such payment shall be held by such Loan Party, in trust for the
benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered, upon written request, to, the Administrative Agent. 
 11.18. No Advisory or Fiduciary
Responsibility. 
 In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any
amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower and each other Loan Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other
services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and the other Agent Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, each other Loan Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one
hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and the Agent Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed
appropriate, and (C) the Borrower and each other Loan Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the
Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and each Agent Lender each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or
fiduciary for the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger nor any the other Agent Lenders has any obligation to the Borrower, any other
Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the
other Agent Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Administrative
Agent, the Arranger nor any other Agent Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrower and the
other Loan Parties hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the other Agent Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any
aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Grantor shall: 
 (a) Other Liens. Defend the Collateral against the claims and demands of all other parties claiming an interest
therein other than Permitted Liens. 
 (b) Instruments/Tangible Chattel Paper/Documents. If any amount payable under or in connection
with any of the Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper, or if any property constituting Collateral shall be stored or shipped subject to a Document in each case having a value in excess of $250,000,
(i) ensure that such Instrument, Tangible Chattel Paper or Document is either in the possession of such Grantor at all times or, if requested by the Administrative Agent, is immediately delivered to the Administrative Agent, duly endorsed in a
manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) ensure that any Collateral consisting of Tangible Chattel Paper is marked with a legend acceptable to the Administrative Agent indicating the Administrative Agent’s security interest
in such Tangible Chattel Paper. 
 (c) Perfection of Security Interest. Execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such
agreements, assignments or instruments (including affidavits, notices, reaffirmations and amendments and restatements of existing documents, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request) and do all such other things as the Administrative Agent
may reasonably deem necessary, appropriate or convenient (i) to assure to the Administrative Agent the effectiveness, perfection and priority of its security interests hereunder, including (A) such instruments as the Administrative Agent
may from time to time reasonably request in order to perfect and maintain the security interests granted hereunder in accordance with the UCC, (B) with regard to Copyrights, a Notice of Grant of Security Interest in Copyrights for filing with
the United States Copyright Office in the form of Schedule 6(c)(i) attached hereto or other form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (C) with regard to Patents, a Notice of Grant of Security Interest in Patents for filing

each Grantor other than Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc., may describe the collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property”) disclosing the Administrative Agent’s security interest in any or all of the Collateral of
such Grantor without such Grantor’s signature thereon, and further each Grantor also hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent, its nominee or any other Person whom the Administrative Agent may designate, as
such Grantor’s attorney-in-fact with full power and for the limited purpose to sign in the name of such Grantor any such financing statements (including renewal statements), amendments and supplements, notices or any similar documents that in
the Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion would be necessary, appropriate or convenient 

 
in order to perfect and maintain perfection of the security interests granted hereunder, such power, being coupled with an interest, being and remaining irrevocable so long as the Secured
Obligations remain unpaid and until the commitments relating thereto shall have been terminated. Each Grantor hereby agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any such financing statement is sufficient
for filing as a financing statement by the Administrative Agent without notice thereof to such Grantor wherever the Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion desire to file the same. In the event for any reason the law of any jurisdiction
other than New York becomes or is applicable to the Collateral of any Grantor or any part thereof, or to any of the Secured Obligations, such Grantor agrees to execute and deliver all such instruments and to do all such other things as the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion reasonably deems necessary, appropriate or convenient to preserve, protect and enforce the security interests of the Administrative Agent under the law of such other jurisdiction (and, if a Grantor shall
fail to do so promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may execute any and all such requested documents on behalf of such Grantor pursuant to the power of attorney granted hereinabove). If any Collateral
is in the possession or control of a Grantor’s agents and the Administrative Agent so requests, such Grantor agrees to notify such agents in writing of the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein and, upon the Administrative
Agent’s request, instruct them to hold all such Collateral for the account of the holders of the Secured Obligations and subject to the Administrative Agent’s instructions. Each Grantor agrees to mark its books and records to reflect the
security interest of the Administrative Agent in the Collateral. 
 (d) Control. Execute and deliver all agreements, assignments,
instruments or other documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining and maintaining control within the meaning of the UCC with respect to any Collateral consisting of Deposit Accounts, Investment
Property, Letter-of-Credit Rights and Electronic Chattel Paper. 
 (e) Collateral held by Warehouseman, Bailee, etc. If any
Collateral is at any time in the possession or control of a warehouseman, bailee, agent or processor of such Grantor, (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such possession or control, (ii) notify such Person of the Administrative
Agent’s security interest in such Collateral, (iii) instruct such Person to hold all such Collateral for the Administrative Agent’s account and subject to the Administrative Agent’s instructions and (iv) use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain an acknowledgment from such Person that it is holding such Collateral for the benefit of the Administrative Agent. 

(f) Treatment of Accounts. Not grant or extend the time for payment of any Account, or compromise or settle any Account for less than
the full amount thereof, or release any Person or property, in whole or in part, from payment thereof, or allow any credit or discount thereon, other than as normal and customary in the ordinary course of a Grantor’s business or as required by
law. 
 (g) Covenants Relating to Copyrights. 

(i) Not do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any Copyright owned by it and material to the business of such
Grantor may become invalidated and (A) not do any act, or knowingly omit to do any act, whereby any Copyright owned by it and material to the business of such Grantor may become injected into the public domain; (B) notify the
Administrative Agent promptly if it knows that any Copyright owned by it and material to the business of such Grantor may become injected into the public domain or of any adverse determination or development (including, without limitation, the
institution of, or any such determination or development in, any court or tribunal in the United States or any other country) regarding a Grantor’s ownership of any such Copyright or its validity; (C) take all necessary steps as it shall
deem appropriate under the circumstances, to maintain and pursue each application (and to obtain the relevant registration) of each Copyright owned by a Grantor and material to the business of such Grantor and to maintain each registration of each
Copyright owned by a Grantor and material to the business of such Grantor including, without limitation, filing of applications for renewal where necessary; and (D) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any material infringement of any
Copyright of a Grantor that is material to the business of such Grantor of which it becomes aware and take such actions as it shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Copyright, including, where appropriate, the
bringing of suit for infringement, seeking injunctive relief and seeking to recover any and all damages for such infringement. 

 (ii) Not make any assignment or agreement in conflict with the security interest
in the Copyrights of each Grantor hereunder (other than in connection with a Permitted Lien or as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement). 

(h) Covenants Relating to Patents and Trademarks. 

(i) With respect to each material Trademark of such Grantor, (A) continue to use such Trademark on each and every
trademark class of goods applicable to its current line as reflected in its current catalogs, brochures and price lists in order to maintain such Trademark in full force free from any valid claim of abandonment for non-use unless such Grantor
determines to abandon any Trademark in is reasonable business judgment, (B) maintain as in the past the quality of products and services offered under any Trademark in use, (C) employ such Trademark with the appropriate notice of
registration, except to the extent that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (D) not (and not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby
any Trademark may become invalidated. 
 (ii) Not do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any material Patent of such
Grantor may become abandoned or dedicated. 
 (iii) Notify the Administrative Agent immediately if it knows that any
application or registration relating to any material Patent or Trademark of such Grantor may become abandoned or dedicated, or of any adverse determination or development (including, without limitation, the institution of, or any such determination
or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any court or tribunal in any country) regarding a Grantor’s ownership of any material Patent or Trademark or its right to register the same or to keep and
maintain the same. 
 (iv) Take all commercially reasonable steps, including, without limitation, in any proceeding before
the United States Patent and Trademark Office, or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each application (and to obtain the relevant registration) and to maintain each
registration of its material Patents and Trademarks, including, without limitation, filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability. 

(v) Promptly notify the Administrative Agent after it learns that any material Patent or Trademark of such Grantor included in
the Collateral is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party and, to the extent such infringement could have a material adverse effect on any business of Grantor or its Subsidiaries or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the
value of such Patent or Trademark, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution, to seek injunctive relief where appropriate and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, or to take such other
actions as it shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Patent or Trademark. 
 (i) Commercial Tort
Claims. 
 (i) Promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing of the initiation of any Commercial Tort Claim that is
Collateral hereunder seeking damages in excess of $1,000,000 before any Governmental Authority by or in favor of such Grantor. 

(ii) Execute and deliver such statements, documents and notices and do and cause to be done all such things as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary, appropriate or convenient, or as are required by law, to create, perfect and maintain the Administrative Agent’s security interest in any Commercial Tort Claim that is Collateral hereunder.

 7. Advances by Holders of the Secured Obligations. On failure of any Grantor to perform any of the covenants and agreements
contained herein, the Administrative Agent may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, perform the same and in so doing may expend such sums as the Administrative Agent may reasonably 

 
deem advisable in the performance thereof, including, without limitation, the payment of any insurance premiums, the payment of any taxes, a payment to obtain a release of a Lien or potential
Lien, expenditures made in defending against any adverse claim and all other expenditures that the Administrative Agent may make for the protection of the security hereof or that may be compelled to make by operation of law. All such sums and
amounts so expended shall be repayable by the Grantors on a joint and several basis (subject to Section 24 hereof) promptly upon timely notice thereof and demand therefor, shall constitute additional Secured Obligations and shall bear
interest from the date said amounts are expended at the Default Rate. No such performance of any covenant or agreement by the Administrative Agent on behalf of any Grantor, and no such advance or expenditure therefor, shall relieve the Grantors of
any default under the terms of this Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent may make any payment hereby authorized in accordance with any bill, statement or
estimate procured from the appropriate public office or holder of the claim to be discharged without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien, title or claim
except to the extent such payment is being contested in good faith by a Grantor in appropriate proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP. 

8. Events of Default. The occurrence of an event which under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document would constitute an Event
of Default shall be an event of default hereunder (an “Event of Default”). 
 9. Remedies. 

(a) General Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent and the
holders of the Secured Obligations shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Documents, in any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or by law (including, without limitation, levy of attachment
and garnishment), the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC of the jurisdiction applicable to the affected Collateral and, further, the Administrative Agent may, with or without judicial process or the aid and assistance of others (to
the extent permitted under applicable law), (i) subject to the rights of tenants in possession, enter on any premises on which any of the Collateral may be located and, without resistance or interference by the Grantors, take possession of the
Collateral, (ii) dispose of any Collateral on any such premises, (iii) require the Grantors to assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent at the expense of the Grantors any Collateral at any place and time designated by the
Administrative Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties, (iv) remove any Collateral from any such premises for the purpose of effecting sale or other disposition thereof, and/or (v) except as provided below in the case of notice
required by law, without demand and without advertisement, notice or hearing, all of which each of the Grantors hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by law, at any place and time or times, sell and deliver any or all Collateral held by or
for it at public or private sale, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Administrative Agent deems advisable, in its sole discretion (subject to any and all
mandatory legal requirements). Each of the Grantors acknowledges that any private sale referenced above may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and terms that might have been obtained at a public sale and agrees
(to the extent permitted by applicable law) that such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Neither the Administrative Agent’s compliance with applicable law nor its disclaimer of warranties
relating to the Collateral shall be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale. In addition to all other sums due the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations with respect to the Secured
Obligations, the Grantors shall pay the Administrative Agent and each of the holders of the Secured Obligations all reasonable documented costs and expenses actually incurred by the Administrative Agent or any such holder of the Secured Obligations,
including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, in obtaining or liquidating the Collateral, in enforcing payment of the Secured Obligations, or in the prosecution or defense of any action or proceeding by or against
the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations or the Grantors concerning any matter arising out of or connected with this Security Agreement, any Collateral or the Secured Obligations, including, without limitation, any of the
foregoing arising in, arising under or related to a case under the Bankruptcy Code. To the extent the rights of notice cannot be legally waived hereunder, each Grantor agrees that any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is
personally served on or mailed, postage prepaid, to the Borrower in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement at least ten Business Days before the time of sale or other event giving rise to the
requirement of such notice. The Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of the Collateral regardless of notice having been given. To the

 
extent permitted by applicable law, any holder of the Secured Obligations may be a purchaser at any such sale. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Grantors hereby waives all of
its rights of redemption with respect to any such sale. Subject to the provisions of applicable law, the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations may postpone or cause the postponement of the sale of all or any portion of the
Collateral by announcement at the time and place of such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be made at the time and place to which the sale was postponed, or the Administrative Agent and the
holders of the Secured Obligations may further postpone such sale by announcement made at such time and place. 
 (b) Remedies Relating
to Accounts. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, whether or not the Administrative Agent has exercised any or all of its rights and remedies hereunder, (i) each Grantor will promptly upon request
of the Administrative Agent instruct all account debtors to remit all payments in respect of Accounts to a mailing location selected by the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enforce any
Grantor’s rights against its customers and account debtors, and the Administrative Agent or its designee may notify any Grantor’s customers and account debtors that the Accounts of such Grantor have been assigned to the Administrative
Agent or of the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein, and may (either in its own name or in the name of a Grantor or both) demand, collect (including without limitation by way of a lockbox arrangement), receive, take receipt for,
sell, sue for, compound, settle, compromise and give acquittance for any and all amounts due or to become due on any Account, and, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, file any claim or take any other action or proceeding to protect and
realize upon the security interest of the holders of the Secured Obligations in the Accounts. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the Proceeds of its Accounts remitted to or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in accordance with the
provisions hereof shall be solely for the Administrative Agent’s own convenience and that such Grantor shall not have any right, title or interest in such Accounts or in any such other amounts except as expressly provided herein. The
Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations shall have no liability or responsibility to any Grantor for acceptance of a check, draft or other order for payment of money bearing the legend “payment in full” or words of
similar import or any other restrictive legend or endorsement or be responsible for determining the correctness of any remittance. Each Grantor hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations from and
against all liabilities, damages, losses, actions, claims, judgments, costs, expenses, charges and reasonable attorneys’ fees suffered or incurred by the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations (each, an
“Indemnified Party”) because of the maintenance of the foregoing arrangements except as relating to or arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Party or its officers, employees or agents. In the
case of any investigation, litigation or other proceeding, the foregoing indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by a Grantor, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified
Party or any other Person or any other Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto. 
 (c) Access. In addition to the rights and
remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, subject to the rights of tenants in possession, to enter and remain upon the various premises of the
Grantors without cost or charge to the Administrative Agent, and use the same, together with materials, supplies, books and records of the Grantors for the purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and
conducting the sale of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise. In addition, the Administrative Agent may remove Collateral, or any part thereof, from such premises and/or any records with respect thereto, in order to
effectively collect or liquidate such Collateral. 
 (d) Nonexclusive Nature of Remedies. Failure by the Administrative Agent or the
holders of the Secured Obligations to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Security Agreement, any other Loan Document, any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or as provided by law, or any delay by the Administrative
Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations in exercising the same, shall not operate as a waiver of any such right, remedy or option. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver
is sought to be enforced and then only to the extent specifically stated, which in the case of the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations shall only be granted as provided herein. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
neither the Administrative Agent, the holders of the Secured Obligations, nor any party acting as attorney for the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations, shall be liable hereunder for any acts or omissions or for any error
of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than their 

 
gross negligence or willful misconduct hereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations under this Security Agreement shall be cumulative
and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations may have. 
 (e)
Retention of Collateral. To the extent permitted under applicable law, in addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, after providing the
notices required by Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC or otherwise complying with the requirements of applicable law of the relevant jurisdiction, accept or retain all or any portion of the Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations.
Unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided such notices, however, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have accepted or retained any Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured Obligations for any reason. 

(f) Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the
Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations are legally entitled, the Grantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency (subject to Section 24 hereof), together with interest thereon at the Default Rate
for Base Rate Revolving Loans, together with the costs of collection and reasonable attorneys’ fees. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Grantors or to whomsoever a
court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto. 
 10. Rights of the Administrative Agent. 

(a) Power of Attorney. In addition to other powers of attorney contained herein, each Grantor hereby designates and appoints the
Administrative Agent, on behalf of the holders of the Secured Obligations, and each of its designees or agents, as attorney-in-fact of such Grantor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to take any or all of the following
actions upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default: 
 (i) to demand, collect, settle, compromise
and adjust, and give discharges and releases concerning the Collateral, all as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate; 

(ii) to commence and prosecute any actions at any court for the purposes of collecting any of the Collateral and enforcing any
other right in respect thereof; 
 (iii) to defend, settle or compromise any action brought and, in connection therewith,
give such discharge or release as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate; 
 (b) to receive, open and dispose of mail
addressed to a Grantor and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to the Collateral on behalf
of and in the name of such Grantor, or securing, or relating to such Collateral; 
 (i) to pay or discharge taxes, liens,
security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral; 
 (c) to direct any parties liable for
any payment in connection with any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all monies due and to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; 

(d) to receive payment of and receipt for any and all monies, claims, and other amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or
arising out of any Collateral; 
 (e) to sell, assign, transfer, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights
in respect of, any Collateral or the goods or services that have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes; 

 (f) to adjust and settle claims under any insurance policy relating thereto; 

(i) to execute and deliver all assignments, conveyances, statements, financing statements, renewal financing statements,
security and pledge agreements, affidavits, notices and other agreements, instruments and documents that the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate in order to perfect and maintain the security interests and liens granted in this
Security Agreement and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated herein; 
 (g) to institute any foreclosure
proceedings that the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate; and 
 (h) to do and perform all such other acts and things as
the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate or convenient in connection with the Collateral. 
 This power of attorney is a
power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for so long as any of the Secured Obligations shall remain outstanding (other than any such obligations which by the terms there of are stated to survive termination of the Loan Documents and
any contingent indemnity obligations that are not yet due and payable) and until all of the commitments relating thereto shall have been terminated. The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the
rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to the Administrative Agent in this Security Agreement, and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or any delay in doing so. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable
for any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or its capacity as attorney-in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power of
attorney is conferred on the Administrative Agent solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral. 

(i) The Administrative Agent’s Duty of Care. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the
Collateral while being held by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Grantors shall be responsible for preservation
of all rights in the Collateral, and the Administrative Agent shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the Grantors. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have
exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, which shall be no less than
the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of
the Collateral. In the event of a public or private sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean, repair or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. 

11. Rights of Required Lenders. All rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder, if not exercised by the Administrative Agent, may be
exercised by the Required Lenders. 
 12. Application of Proceeds. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, any payments in respect of the Secured Obligations and any proceeds of the Collateral, when received by the Administrative Agent or any of the holders of the Secured Obligations in cash or its equivalent, will be applied in reduction of the
Secured Obligations in the order set forth in the Credit Agreement or other document relating to the Secured Obligations, and each Grantor irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of such payments and proceeds and acknowledges and
agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all such payments and proceeds in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, notwithstanding any entry to the contrary upon any of
its books and records. 

 13. Continuing Agreement. 

(a) This Security Agreement shall be a continuing agreement in every respect and shall remain in full force and effect so long as any of the
Secured Obligations remains outstanding (other than any such obligations which by the terms thereof are stated to survive termination of the Loan Documents and any contingent indemnity obligations that are not yet due and payable) and until all of
the commitments relating thereto have been terminated. Upon such payment and termination, this Security Agreement and the liens and security interests of the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be automatically terminated and the Administrative
Agent shall, upon the request and at the expense of the Grantors, execute and deliver all UCC termination statements and/or other documents reasonably requested by the Grantors evidencing such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all releases
and indemnities provided hereunder shall survive termination of this Security Agreement. 
 (b) This Security Agreement shall continue to be
effective or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any holder of the
Secured Obligations as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, all as though such payment had not been made; provided that in the event payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations
is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually incurred by the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Secured Obligations in
defending and enforcing such reinstatement shall be deemed to be included as a part of the Secured Obligations. 
 14. Amendments and
Waivers. This Security Agreement and the provisions hereof may not be amended, waived, modified, changed, discharged or terminated except as set forth in Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement. 

15. Successors in Interest. This Security Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall be binding
upon each Grantor, its successors and assigns, and shall inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations hereunder, to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the holders of the
Secured Obligations and their successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that none of the Grantors may assign its rights or delegate its duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the each Lender or the Required
Lenders under the Credit Agreement; provided, further, however, that Grantor shall have the right to transfer the Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights subject to the security interests created hereby to an intellectual property
holding company upon (a) prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and (b) the execution and delivery by such holding company of any documents, instruments, agreements or other materials necessary or reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent to evidence or cause the uninterrupted continuation of a first priority perfected security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties with respect to such Patents, Trademarks and
Copyrights. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby releases the Administrative Agent and each holder of the Secured Obligations, their respective successors and assigns and their respective officers, attorneys, employees and
agents, from any liability for any act or omission or any error of judgment or mistake of fact or of law relating to this Security Agreement or the Collateral, except for any liability arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Administrative Agent or such holder, or their respective officers, attorneys, employees or agents. 
 16. Notices. All notices
required or permitted to be given under this Security Agreement shall be given as provided in Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement. 

17. Counterparts. This Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered
shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Security Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. 

18. Headings. The headings of the sections and subsections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the
meaning or construction of any provision of this Security Agreement. 
 19. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; WAIVER OF
JURY TRIAL. The terms of Sections 11.14 and 11.15 of the Credit Agreement with respect to governing law, submission to jurisdiction, venue and waiver of jury trial are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and
the parties hereto agree to such terms. 

 20. Severability. If any provision of this Security Agreement is determined to be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. 

21. Entirety. This Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations represent
the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, including any commitment letters or correspondence relating to the Loan Documents, any other documents relating
to the Secured Obligations, or the transactions contemplated herein and therein. 
 22. Survival. All representations and warranties
of the Grantors hereunder shall survive the execution and delivery of this Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, the delivery of the Notes and the extension of credit thereunder or
in connection therewith. 
 23. Other Security. To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations are now or hereafter secured by
property other than the Collateral (including, without limitation, real property and securities owned by a Grantor), or by a guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then the Administrative Agent shall have the right to proceed
against such other property, guarantee or endorsement upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, and the Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine which rights, security, liens,
security interests or remedies the Administrative Agent shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or the Secured Obligations or any of the rights of
the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations under this Security Agreement, under any of the other Loan Documents or under any other document relating to the Secured Obligations. 

24. Joint and Several Obligations of Grantors. 

(a) Subject to subsection (c) of this Section 24, each of the Grantors is accepting joint and several liability hereunder in
consideration of the financial accommodation to be provided by the holders of the Secured Obligations, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Grantors and in consideration of the undertakings of each of the Grantors to
accept joint and several liability for the obligations of each of them. 
 (b) Subject to subsection (c) of this
Section 24, each of the Grantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Grantors with respect to the payment and
performance of all of the Secured Obligations arising under this Security Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Secured Obligations
shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Grantors without preferences or distinction among them. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary contained herein, in any other of the Loan Documents or in any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, the obligations of each Guarantor under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be limited
to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, any comparable provisions of any applicable state law or any applicable corporate or other
organizational Laws relating to the ability of an entity to approve, authorize and make Guarantees or Indebtedness (or the effectiveness of any such approval, authorization or making) in excess of an amount that would render such entity insolvent or
such other amount as may be established by such Law. 
 25. Costs and Expenses. At all times hereafter, the Grantors agree to
promptly pay upon demand any and all reasonable costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations, (a) as required under Section 11.04 of the Credit Agreement and (b) as necessary to
protect the Collateral or to exercise any rights or remedies under this Security Agreement or with respect to any Collateral. All of the foregoing costs and expenses shall constitute Secured Obligations hereunder. 

 26. Amendment and Restatement. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that
(a) this Security Agreement represents an amendment and restatement of the Replaced Security Agreement, (b) the liens and security interests in favor of the Administrative Agent and Lenders and created by the Replaced Security Agreement
shall continue uninterrupted upon the effectiveness hereof and (c) nothing contained herein is intended to represent a novation of any type with respect to the “Secured Obligations” as defined in the Replaced Security Agreement.

 Exhibit C 

FORM OF PLEDGE AGREEMENT

AMENDED AND RESTATED PLEDGE AGREEMENT 
 [Related to RYMAN HOSPITALITY PROPERTIES, INC. (f/k/a Gaylord Entertainment Company) 

Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated April     , 2013] 

THIS FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED PLEDGE AGREEMENT, dated as of April     , 2013 (this “Pledge
Agreement”), is made by the parties listed on the signature pages hereto (each individually a “Pledgor” and collectively, the “Pledgors”) in favor of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in its capacity
as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for the Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement described below) and is an amendment and restatement of that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Pledge
Agreement, dated as of April __, 2013, among the parties hereto (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Replaced Pledge Agreement”). 

RECITALS 

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, modified,
extended, renewed or replaced from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc. (f/k/a Gaylord Entertainment Company), a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), RHP Hotel Properties,
LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors party thereto, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders have agreed to make Loans upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein; 

WHEREAS, the Pledgors, collectively, are the owners of all of the outstanding equity interests in the Guarantors; 

WHEREAS, the Parent, either directly or indirectly, owns all of the outstanding interests in the other Pledgors; 

WHEREAS, as a result of the Pledgors’ respective ownership in the Borrower and the Guarantors, the Pledgors expect to receive
certain benefits as a result of the pledge, assignment and grant of security interest contemplated herein; and 
 WHEREAS, it is a
condition precedent to the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement and the obligations of the Lenders to make their respective Loans under the Credit Agreement that the Pledgors shall have executed and delivered this Pledge Agreement to the
Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Secured Obligations. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these
premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

1. Definitions. 
 (a)
Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 
 (b) The
following terms which are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”) in effect in the State of New York on the date hereof are used herein as so defined: Securities Account. 

 (c) As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below: 

“Secured Obligations” means, without duplication, (i) all of the Obligations and (ii) all reasonable
and documented costs and expenses actually incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcement and collection of the Obligations, including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees. 

2. Pledge and Grant of Security Interest. To secure the prompt payment and performance in full when due, whether by lapse of time,
acceleration, mandatory prepayment or otherwise, of the Secured Obligations, each Pledgor hereby pledges and assigns to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the holders of the Secured Obligations, and grants to the Administrative Agent, for
the benefit of the holders of the Secured Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and a right to set off against, any and all right, title and interest of such Pledgor in and to the following, whether now owned or existing or owned,
acquired, or arising hereafter (collectively, the “Pledged Collateral”): 
 (a) Pledged Capital Stock. One hundred
percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock owned by such Pledgor in (i) the Borrower, (ii) the Guarantors (other than the Parent), (iii) all pledgors of equity in the Guarantors and (iv) RHP Operations and
Attractions Holdings, LLC (a list of such Persons and the Capital Stock owned by the respective Pledgors therein, as of the Closing Date, is set forth on Schedule 2(a) attached hereto) together with the certificates (or other agreements or
instruments), if any, representing such Capital Stock and all options and other rights, contractual or otherwise, with respect thereto (collectively, together with the Capital Stock described in Sections 2(b) and 2(c) below, the
“Pledged Capital Stock”), including, but not limited to, the following: 
 (A) all shares, securities,
partnership interests, membership interests or other equity interests representing a dividend on any of the Pledged Capital Stock, or representing a distribution or return of capital upon or in respect of the Pledged Capital Stock, or resulting from
a stock split, revision, reclassification or other exchange therefor, and any subscriptions, warrants, rights or options issued to the holder of, or otherwise in respect of, the Pledged Capital Stock; and 

(B) without affecting the obligations of the Pledgors under any provision prohibiting such action hereunder or under the Credit
Agreement, in the event of any consolidation or merger involving the issuer of any Pledged Capital Stock and in which such issuer is not the surviving entity, the Capital Stock (in the applicable percentage specified in Section 2(a)
above) of the successor entity formed by or resulting from such consolidation or merger. 
 (b) Additional Shares. One hundred
percent (100%) (or, if less, the full amount owned by such Pledgor) of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of any Person which hereafter directly or indirectly owns a Borrowing Base Property together with the certificates (or other
agreements or instruments), if any, representing such Capital Stock. 
 (c) Proceeds. All proceeds and products of the foregoing,
however and whenever acquired and in whatever form. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is hereby specifically
understood and agreed that each Pledgor may from time to time hereafter deliver additional shares of Capital Stock to the Administrative Agent as collateral security for the Secured Obligations. Upon delivery to the Administrative Agent, such
additional Capital Stock shall be deemed to be part of the Pledged Collateral and shall be subject to the terms of this Pledge Agreement whether or not Schedule 2(a) is amended to refer to such additional Capital Stock. 

3. Security for Secured Obligations. The security interest created hereby in the Pledged Collateral constitutes continuing collateral
security for all of the Secured Obligations. 
 4. Delivery of the Pledged Collateral; Perfection of Security Interest. Each Pledgor
hereby agrees that: 
 (a) Delivery of Certificates. Each Pledgor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent
                     (i) simultaneously with or prior to the execution and delivery of this Pledge Agreement, all certificates representing the
Pledged Capital Stock of such Pledgor and (ii) promptly upon the receipt thereof by or on behalf of a Pledgor, all 

 
other certificates and instruments constituting Pledged Collateral of a Pledgor. Prior to delivery to the Administrative Agent, all such certificates and instruments constituting Pledged
Collateral of a Pledgor shall be held in trust by such Pledgor for the benefit of the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto. All such certificates shall be delivered in suitable form for transfer by delivery or shall be accompanied by duly executed
instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, substantially in the form provided in Exhibit 4(a) attached hereto. 
 (b)
Additional Securities. If such Pledgor shall receive by virtue of its being, becoming or having been the owner of any Pledged Collateral, any (i) certificate, including without limitation, any certificate representing a dividend or
distribution in connection with any increase or reduction of capital, reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale of assets, combination of shares or membership or equity interests, stock splits, spin-off or split-off, promissory notes or other
instrument; (ii) option or right, whether as an addition to, substitution for, or an exchange for, any Pledged Collateral or otherwise; (iii) dividends payable in securities; or (iv) distributions of securities or other equity
interests in connection with a partial or total liquidation, dissolution or reduction of capital, capital surplus or paid-in surplus, such Pledgor shall receive such certificate, instrument, option, right or distribution in trust for the benefit of
the Administrative Agent, shall segregate it from such Pledgor’s other property and shall deliver it forthwith to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received together with any necessary endorsement and/or appropriate stock power duly
executed in blank, substantially in the form provided in Exhibit 4(a), to be held by the Administrative Agent as Pledged Collateral and as further collateral security for the Secured Obligations. 

(c) Financing Statements. Each Pledgor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent such UCC or other applicable financing statements as
may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to perfect and protect the security interest created hereby in the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor. 

5. Representations and Warranties. Each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
holders of the Secured Obligations, that so long as any of the Secured Obligations remain outstanding (other than any such obligations which by the terms thereof are stated to survive termination of the Loan Documents and any contingent indemnity
obligations that are not yet due and payable): 
 (a) Authorization of Pledged Capital Stock. The Pledged Capital Stock is duly
authorized and validly issued, is fully paid and, with respect to any Pledged Capital Stock consisting of stock of a corporation, nonassessable and is not subject to the preemptive rights of any Person. All other shares of Capital Stock constituting
Pledged Collateral will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and, with respect to any Pledged Capital Stock consisting of stock of a corporation, nonassessable and not subject to the preemptive rights of any Person. 

(b) Title. Each Pledgor has good and indefeasible title to the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor and will at all times be the legal
and beneficial owner of such Pledged Collateral free and clear of any Lien, other than Permitted Liens. There exists no “adverse claim” within the meaning of Section 8-102 of the UCC with respect to the Pledged Capital Stock of such
Pledgor. 
 (c) Exercising of Rights. The exercise by the Administrative Agent of its rights and remedies hereunder will not violate
any law or governmental regulation or any material contractual restriction binding on or affecting a Pledgor or any of its property. 
 (d)
Pledgor’s Authority. No authorization, approval or action by, and no notice or filing with any Governmental Authority or with the issuer of any Pledged Capital Stock is required either (i) for the pledge made by a Pledgor or for the
granting of the security interest by a Pledgor pursuant to this Pledge Agreement or (ii) for the exercise by the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligation of their rights and remedies hereunder (except as may be required by
Laws affecting the offering and sale of securities). 
 (e) Security Interest/Priority. This Pledge Agreement creates a valid
security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the holders of the Secured Obligations, in the Pledged Collateral. The taking possession by the Administrative Agent of the certificates, if any, representing the Pledged
Capital Stock and all other certificates and instruments constituting Pledged Collateral will perfect and establish the first priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in all certificated Pledged Capital Stock and such
certificates and instruments and, upon the filing of UCC financing statements in the appropriate filing office in the location of each 

 
Pledgor’s state of formation, the Administrative Agent shall have a first priority perfected security interest in all uncertificated Pledged Capital Stock consisting of partnership or
limited liability company interests that do not constitute a security pursuant to Section 8-103(c) of the UCC. Except as set forth in this Section 5(e), no action is necessary to perfect or otherwise protect such security interest.

 (f) No Other Capital Stock. No Pledgor owns any Capital Stock of any Person which directly or indirectly owns a Borrowing Base
Property other than as set forth on Schedule 2(a) attached hereto. 
 (g) Partnership and Limited Liability Company Interests.
Except as previously disclosed to the Administrative Agent, none of the Pledged Capital Stock consisting of partnership or limited liability company interests (i) is dealt in or traded on a securities exchange or in a securities market,
(ii) by its terms expressly provides that it is a security governed by Article 8 of the UCC, (iii) is an investment company security, (iv) is held in a Securities Account or (v) constitutes a “security” or a
“financial asset” as such terms are defined in Article 8 of the UCC. 
 6. Covenants. Each Pledgor hereby covenants, that
so long as any of the Secured Obligations remain outstanding (other than any such obligations which by the terms thereof are stated to survive termination of the Loan Documents and any contingent indemnity obligations that are not yet due and
payable) and until all of the commitments relating thereto have been terminated, such Pledgor shall: 
 (a) Books and Records. Mark
its books and records (and shall cause the issuer of the Pledged Capital Stock of such Pledgor to mark its books and records) to reflect the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the holders of the Secured
Obligations, pursuant to this Pledge Agreement. 
 (b) Defense of Title. Warrant and defend title to and ownership of the Pledged
Collateral of such Pledgor at its own expense against the claims and demands of all other parties claiming an interest therein, keep the Pledged Collateral free from all Liens, except for Permitted Liens, and not sell, exchange, transfer, assign,
lease or otherwise dispose of Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor or any interest therein, except as permitted under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

(c) Further Assurances. Promptly execute and deliver at its expense all further instruments and documents and take all further action
that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to (i) perfect and protect the security interest created hereby in the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor (including, without limitation, the execution and filing of UCC financing
statements and any and all action necessary to satisfy the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent has obtained a first priority perfected security interest in all Pledged Collateral); (ii) enable the Administrative Agent to exercise
and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder in respect of the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor; and (iii) otherwise effect the purposes of this Pledge Agreement, including, without limitation and if requested by the Administrative Agent,
delivering to the Administrative Agent irrevocable proxies in respect of the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor. 
 (d) Amendments;
Modifications; Changes in Corporate Status. Not make or consent to any amendment or other modification or waiver with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor or enter into any agreement or allow to exist any restriction with
respect to any of the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor other than pursuant hereto or as may be permitted under the Credit Agreement and not cause or permit without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent any change in the
organizational documents, name or corporate status or jurisdiction of organization of such Pledgor that could reasonably be expected to, in any manner, cause any security interest granted herein or any filing made in connection herewith to lapse,
terminate or otherwise become ineffective (whether immediately or as a result of the passage of time) with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral. 

(e) Compliance with Securities Laws. File all reports and other information now or hereafter required to be filed by such Pledgor with
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and any other state, federal or foreign agency in connection with the ownership of the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor. 

 7. Performance of Obligations and Advances by Administrative Agent or Lenders. On failure
of any Pledgor to perform any of the covenants and agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, perform or cause to be performed the same and in so doing may expend such sums as the
Administrative Agent may reasonably deem advisable in the performance thereof, including, without limitation, the payment of any insurance premiums, the payment of any taxes, a payment to obtain a release of a Lien or potential Lien, expenditures
made in defending against any adverse claim and all other expenditures which the Administrative Agent may make for the protection of the security hereof or which may be compelled to make by operation of law. All such sums and amounts so expended
shall be repayable by the Pledgors on a joint and several basis (subject to Section 25 hereof) promptly upon timely notice thereof and demand therefor, shall constitute additional Secured Obligations and shall bear interest from the date said
amounts are expended at the Default Rate specified in the Credit Agreement for Loans that are Base Rate Revolving Loans. No such performance of any covenant or agreement by the Administrative Agent on behalf of any Pledgor, and no such advance or
expenditure therefor, shall relieve the Pledgors of any default under the terms of this Pledge Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent may make any payment hereby
authorized in accordance with any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or holder of the claim to be discharged without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax
assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien, title or claim except to the extent such payment is being contested in good faith by a Pledgor in appropriate proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP. 

8. Events of Default. The occurrence of an event which under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document would constitute an Event
of Default shall be an event of default hereunder (an “Event of Default”). 
 9. Remedies. 

(a) General Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent and the
holders of the Secured Obligations shall have, in respect of the Pledged Collateral of any Pledgor, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Documents, in any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations or by law,
the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other applicable law. 
 (b) Sale of Pledged Collateral. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, without limiting the generality of this Section and without notice, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, sell or otherwise dispose of or realize upon the Pledged
Collateral, or any part thereof, in one or more parcels, at public or private sale, at any exchange or broker’s board or elsewhere, at such price or prices and on such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable,
for cash, credit or for future delivery or otherwise in accordance with applicable law. To the extent permitted by law, any holder of the Secured Obligations may in such event bid for the purchase of such securities. Each Pledgor agrees that, to the
extent notice of sale shall be required by law and has not been waived by such Pledgor, any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if notice, specifying the place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made, is
personally served on or mailed postage prepaid to such Pledgor in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement at least ten (10) days before the time of such sale. The Administrative Agent shall not
be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor 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. 
 (c) Private Sale.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Pledgors recognize that the Administrative Agent may be unable or deem it impracticable to effect a public sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral and that
the Administrative Agent may, therefore, determine to make one or more private sales of any such Pledged Collateral to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Collateral for their
own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and other terms which might have
been obtained at a public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to delay sale of any
such Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such Pledged Collateral to register such Pledged Collateral for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933 or under applicable state securities laws.

 
Each Pledgor further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell such Pledged Collateral which has been (i) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other publication of
general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such offer may be advertised without prior registration under the Securities Act of 1933), or (ii) made privately in the manner described above shall be
deemed to involve a “public sale” under the UCC, notwithstanding that such sale may not constitute a “public offering” under the Securities Act of 1933, and the Administrative Agent may, in such event, bid for the purchase of
such Pledged Collateral. 
 (d) Retention of Pledged Collateral. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, after providing the notices required by Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC (or any successor sections of the UCC) or otherwise complying with the
requirements of applicable law of the relevant jurisdiction, retain all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. Unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided such notices, however, the
Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have retained any Pledged Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured Obligations for any reason. 

(e) Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the
Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations are legally entitled, the Pledgors shall be jointly and severally liable (subject to Section 25 hereof) for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate
specified in the Credit Agreement for Loans that are Base Rate Revolving Loans and together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency. Any surplus remaining
after the full payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Pledgors or to whomsoever a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto. 

10. Rights of the Administrative Agent. 

(a) Power of Attorney. In addition to other powers of attorney contained herein, each Pledgor hereby designates and appoints the
Administrative Agent, on behalf of the holders of the Secured Obligations, and each of its designees or agents as attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to take any or all of the following
actions upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default: 
 (i) to demand, collect, settle, compromise,
adjust and give discharges and releases concerning the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor, all as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine; 

(ii) to commence and prosecute any actions at any court for the purposes of collecting any of the Pledged Collateral of such
Pledgor and enforcing any other right in respect thereof; 
 (iii) to defend, settle, adjust or compromise any action, suit
or proceeding brought and, in connection therewith, give such discharge or release as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably appropriate; 

(iv) to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests, or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the
Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor; 
 (v) to direct any parties liable for any payment under any of the Pledged Collateral
to make payment of any and all monies due and to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; 

(vi) to receive payment of and receipt for any and all monies, claims, and other amounts due and to become due at any time in
respect of or arising out of any Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor; 
 (vii) to sign and endorse any drafts, assignments,
proxies, stock powers, verifications, notices and other documents relating to the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor; 

 (viii) to execute and deliver all assignments, conveyances, statements, financing
statements, renewal financing statements, pledge agreements, affidavits, notices and other agreements, instruments and documents that the Administrative Agent may determine necessary in order to perfect and maintain the security interests and liens
granted in this Pledge Agreement and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated herein; 
 (ix) to
exchange any of the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor or other property upon any merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of the issuer thereof and, in connection therewith, deposit any of the Pledged Collateral
of such Pledgor with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms as the Administrative Agent may determine; 

(x) to vote for a shareholder or member resolution, or to sign an instrument in writing, sanctioning the transfer of any or all
of the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor into the name of the Administrative Agent or one or more of the holders of the Secured Obligations or into the name of any transferee to whom the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor or any part thereof may be
sold pursuant to Section 9 hereof; and 
 (xi) to do and perform all such other acts and things as the Administrative
Agent may reasonably deem to be necessary, proper or convenient in connection with the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor. 
 This power of attorney is a
power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for so long as any of the Secured Obligations remain outstanding (other than any such obligations which by the terms thereof are stated to survive termination of the Loan Documents and any
contingent indemnity obligations that are not yet due and payable) and until all of the commitments relating thereto shall have been terminated. The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the
rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to the Administrative Agent in this Pledge Agreement and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or any delay in doing so. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for
any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or its capacity as attorney-in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power of attorney
is conferred on the Administrative Agent solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Pledged Collateral. 

(b) Assignment by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may from time to time assign the Secured Obligations and any
portion thereof and/or the Pledged Collateral and any portion thereof, and the assignee shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent under this Pledge Agreement in relation thereto. 

(c) The Administrative Agent’s Duty of Care. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to ensure the safe custody of the Pledged
Collateral while being held by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that each of the Pledgors shall be responsible for
preservation of all rights in the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor, and the Administrative Agent shall be relieved of all responsibility for such Pledged Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to such Pledgor. The
Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative
Agent accords its own property, which shall be no less than the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking
action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Pledged Collateral, whether or not the Administrative Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters; or (ii) taking any
necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any Pledged Collateral. 
 (d) Voting Rights in Respect of the
Pledged Collateral. 
 (i) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to the extent permitted
by law, each Pledgor may exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral of such Pledgor or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Pledge Agreement or the Credit
Agreement; and 

 (ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all
rights of a Pledgor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (i) of this subsection (d) shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the
Administrative Agent which shall then have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights. 
 (e) Dividend and
Distribution Rights in Respect of the Pledged Collateral. 
 (iii) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing and subject to Section 4(b) hereof, each Pledgor may receive and retain any and all dividends (other than stock dividends and other dividends constituting Pledged Collateral which are addressed hereinabove), distributions or
interest paid in respect of the Pledged Collateral to the extent they are allowed under the Credit Agreement. 
 (iv) Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default: 
 (A) all rights of a Pledgor to receive the dividends,
distributions and interest payments which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to paragraph (i) of this subsection (e) shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon be vested in the Administrative Agent which
shall then have the sole right to receive and hold as Pledged Collateral such dividends, distributions and interest payments; and 

(B) all dividends, distributions and interest payments which are received by a Pledgor contrary to the provisions of subsection
(A) of this Section shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent as Pledged Collateral in
the exact form received, to be held by the Administrative Agent as Pledged Collateral and as further collateral security for the Secured Obligations. 

(e) Release of Pledged Collateral. The Administrative Agent may release any of the Pledged Collateral from this Pledge Agreement or may
substitute any of the Pledged Collateral for other Pledged Collateral without altering, varying or diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, pledge or security interest of this Pledge Agreement as to any Pledged Collateral not expressly
released or substituted, and this Pledge Agreement shall continue as a first priority lien on all Pledged Collateral not expressly released or substituted. 

11. Rights of Required Lenders. All rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder, if not exercised by the Administrative Agent, may be
exercised by the Required Lenders. 
 12. Application of Proceeds. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, any payments in respect of the Secured Obligations and any proceeds of any Pledged Collateral, when received by the Administrative Agent or any of the holders of the Secured Obligations in cash or its equivalent, will be applied in
reduction of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement, and each Pledgor irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of such payments and proceeds and acknowledges and agrees that
the Administrative Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all such payments and proceeds in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, notwithstanding any entry to the contrary upon any of its books
and records. 
 13. Costs and Expenses. At all times hereafter, the Pledgors agree to promptly pay upon demand any and all reasonable
costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations, (a) as required under Section 11.04 of the Credit Agreement and (b) as necessary to protect the Pledged Collateral or to exercise any
rights or remedies under this Pledge Agreement or with respect to any Pledged Collateral. All of the foregoing costs and expenses shall constitute Secured Obligations hereunder. 

 14. Continuing Agreement. 

(a) This Pledge Agreement shall be a continuing agreement in every respect and shall remain in full force and effect so long as any of the
Secured Obligations remain outstanding (other than any such obligations which by the terms thereof are stated to survive termination of the Loan Documents and any contingent indemnity obligations that are not yet due and payable) and until all of
the commitments relating thereto have been terminated. Upon such payment and termination, this Pledge Agreement shall be automatically terminated and the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations shall, upon the request and at
the expense of the Pledgors, (i) return all certificates representing the Pledged Capital Stock, all other certificates and instruments constituting Pledged Collateral and all instruments of transfer or assignment which have been delivered to
the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Pledge Agreement and (ii) forthwith release all of its liens and security interests hereunder and shall execute and deliver all UCC termination statements and/or other documents reasonably requested by
the Pledgors evidencing such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all releases and indemnities provided hereunder shall survive termination of this Pledge Agreement. 

(b) This Pledge Agreement shall continue to be effective or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, in whole
or in part, of any of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Secured Obligations as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise under any bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law, all as though such payment had not been made; provided that in the event payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all reasonable costs and expenses (including
without limitation any reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Secured Obligations in defending and enforcing such reinstatement shall be deemed to be included as a part of the Secured
Obligations. 
 15. Amendments; Waivers; Modifications. This Pledge Agreement and the provisions hereof may not be amended, waived,
modified, changed, discharged or terminated except as set forth in Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement. 
 16. Successors
in Interest. This Pledge Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall be binding upon each Pledgor, its successors and assigns and shall inure, together with the rights and remedies of the
Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations hereunder, to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations and their successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that none
of the Pledgors may assign its rights or delegate its duties hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender or the Required Lenders, as required by the Credit Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Pledgor hereby
releases the Administrative Agent and each holder of the Secured Obligations, and its successors and assigns, from any liability for any act or omission relating to this Pledge Agreement or the Pledged Collateral, except for any liability arising
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, or such holder, or its officers, employees or agents. 
 17.
Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given under this Pledge Agreement shall be in conformance with Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement. 

18. Counterparts. This Pledge Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which where so executed and delivered

19. Headings. The headings of the sections and subsections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the
meaning, construction or interpretation of any provision of this Pledge Agreement. 
 20. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction;
Venue; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. The terms of Sections 11.14 and 11.15 of the Credit Agreement with respect to governing law, submission to jurisdiction, venue and waiver of jury trial are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis
mutandis, and the parties hereto agree to such terms. 

 21. Severability. If any provision of this Pledge Agreement is determined to be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. 

22. Entirety. This Pledge Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents relating to the Secured Obligations represent the
entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, including any commitment letters or correspondence relating to the Loan Documents, such Swap Contracts or the
transactions contemplated herein and therein. 
 23. Survival. All representations and warranties of the Pledgors hereunder shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Pledge Agreement, the other Loan Documents and other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, the delivery of the Notes, the making of the Loans. 

24. Other Security. To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations are now or hereafter secured by property other than the Pledged
Collateral (including, without limitation, real and other personal property owned by a Pledgor), or by a guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then the Administrative Agent shall have the right to proceed against such other
property, guarantee or endorsement upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, and the Administrative Agent have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine which rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies the Administrative Agent
shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations under this
Pledge Agreement, under any other of the Loan Documents or under any other document relating to the Secured Obligations. 
 25. Joint and
Several Obligations of Pledgors. 
 (a) Each of the Pledgors is accepting joint and several liability hereunder in consideration of the
financial accommodation to be provided by the holders of the Secured Obligations under the Credit Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Pledgors and in consideration of the undertakings of each of the Pledgors to
accept joint and several liability for the obligations of each of them. 
 (b) Each of the Pledgors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Pledgors with respect to the obligations arising under this Pledge Agreement, it being the intention of the parties hereto that
all the obligations hereunder shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Pledgors without preferences or distinction among them. 

(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Loan Documents, or other documents relating to the
Secured Obligations, the obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would render such obligations subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, any
comparable provisions of any applicable state law or any applicable corporate or other organizational Laws relating to the ability of an entity to approve and authorize Guarantees or Indebtedness (or the effectiveness of any such approval or
authorization) in excess of an amount that would render such entity insolvent or such other amount as may be established by such Law. 
 26.
Amendment and Restatement. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that (a) this Pledge Agreement represents an amendment and restatement of the Replaced Pledge Agreement, (b) the liens and security interests in favor of the
Administrative Agent and Lenders and created by the Replaced Pledge Agreement shall continue uninterrupted upon the effectiveness hereof and (c) nothing contained herein is intended to represent a novation of any type with respect to the
“Secured Obligations” as defined in the Replaced Pledge Agreement.

issuer of Pledged Capital Stock party to this Agreement hereby acknowledges, consents and agrees to the grant of the security interests in such Pledged Capital Stock by the applicable Pledgors pursuant to this Agreement, together with all rights
