THE
EXCHANGE CONTEMPLATED HEREIN IS INTENDED TO COMPORT WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF SECTION 3(a)(9) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS

EXCHANGE
AGREEMENT

 

This
Exchange Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of November 5, 2019 by and between Iliad Research
and Trading, L.P., a Utah limited partnership (“Lender”), and Inpixon, a Nevada corporation (“Borrower”
or the “Company”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have the meanings given
to them in the Original Note (defined below).

 

A. 
Borrower previously sold and issued to Lender that certain Promissory Note dated December 21, 2018, as amended (the “Original
Note”), in the original principal amount of $1,895,000.00 pursuant to that certain Note Purchase Agreement dated December
21, 2018 by and between Lender and Borrower, as amended (the “Purchase Agreement,” and together with the Original
Note and all other documents entered into in conjunction therewith, the “Transaction Documents”).

 

B. 
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Borrower and Lender desire to partition a new Promissory Note in the form of the Original
Note (the “Partitioned Note”) in the original principal amount of $202,400.00 (“Exchange Amount”)
from the Original Note and then cause the outstanding balance of the Original Note to be reduced by an amount equal to the Exchange
Amount, which represents the total outstanding balance of the Partitioned Note.

 

C. 
Borrower and Lender further desire to exchange (such exchange is referred to as the “Note Exchange”) the Partitioned
Note for the delivery of 2,300,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”,
and such 2,300,000 shares of Common Stock, the “Exchange Shares”), at an effective price per Exchange Share
equal to $0.088, according to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

D. 
The Note Exchange will consist of Lender surrendering the Partitioned Note in exchange for the Exchange Shares, which will be
issued free of any restrictive securities legend. Other than the surrender of the Partitioned Note, no consideration of any kind
whatsoever shall be given by Lender to Borrower in connection with this Agreement.

 

E. 
Lender and Borrower have agreed to exchange the Partitioned Note for the Exchange Shares on the terms and conditions set forth
herein.

 

NOW,
THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree
as follows:

 

1. 
Recitals and Definitions. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the recitals set forth above in this
Agreement are true and accurate, are contractual in nature, and are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement.

 

     

     

    

 

2. 
Partition. Effective as of the date hereof, Borrower and Lender agree that the Partitioned Note is hereby partitioned from
the Original Note. Following such partition of the Original Note, Borrower and Lender agree that the Original Note shall remain
in full force and effect, provided that the outstanding balance of the Original Note shall be reduced by an amount equal to the
Exchange Amount.

 

3. 
Issuance of Exchange Shares. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Exchange Shares shall be delivered
to Lender on or before November 5, 2019 and the Note Exchange shall occur with Lender surrendering the Partitioned Note to Borrower
on the Free Trading Date (as defined below). On the Free Trading Date, the Partitioned Note shall be cancelled and all obligations
of Borrower under the Partitioned Note shall be deemed fulfilled. All Exchange Shares delivered hereunder shall be delivered via
DWAC to Lender’s designated brokerage account. Borrower agrees to provide all necessary cooperation or assistance that may
be required to cause all Exchange Shares delivered hereunder to become Free Trading (the first date such occurs, the “Free
Trading Date”). For purposes hereof, the term “Free Trading” means that (a) the Exchange Shares have
been cleared and approved for public resale by the compliance departments of Lender’s brokerage firm and the clearing firm
servicing such brokerage, and (b) such shares are held in the name of the clearing firm servicing Lender’s brokerage firm
and have been deposited into such clearing firm’s account for the benefit of Lender.

 

4. 
Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) along with the delivery
of the Exchange Shares to Lender shall occur on the date that is mutually agreed to by Borrower and Lender by means of the exchange
by email of .pdf documents, but shall be deemed to have occurred at the offices of Hansen Black Anderson Ashcraft PLLC in Lehi,
Utah.

 

5. 
Holding Period, Tacking and Legal Opinion. Borrower represents, warrants and agrees that for the purposes of Rule 144 (“Rule
144”) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the holding period of the
Partitioned Note and the Exchange Shares will include Lender’s holding period of the Original Note from December 21, 2018,
as amended or modified pursuant to that certain Global Amendment, dated February 8, 2019. Borrower agrees not to take a position
contrary to this Section 5 in any document, statement, setting, or situation. Borrower agrees to take all action necessary to
issue the Exchange Shares without restriction, and not containing any restrictive legend without the need for any action by Lender;
provided that the applicable holding period has been met. In furtherance thereof, at the Closing, counsel to Lender may, in its
sole discretion, provide an opinion that: (a) the Exchange Shares may be resold pursuant to Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale
restrictions; and (b) the transactions contemplated hereby and all other documents associated with this transaction comport with
the requirements of Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. Borrower represents that it is not subject to Rule 144(i). The Exchange
Shares are being issued in substitution of and exchange for and not in satisfaction of the Partitioned Note. The Exchange Shares
shall not constitute a novation or satisfaction and accord of the Partitioned Note. Borrower acknowledges and understands that
the representations and agreements of Borrower in this Section 5 are a material inducement to Lender’s decision to consummate
the transactions contemplated herein.

          (or any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Indebtedness under the Second Lien Loan Documents) will be deemed to include provisions to the foregoing effect solely by virtue of Liens on Lee Collateral, Pulitzer Collateral or other collateral,
          guarantees, maturity or structural subordination.

         

        “Consolidated Income Taxes” means, with respect to any Person for any period, taxes imposed upon such Person and its consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries or other payments required to be
          made by such Person or any of its consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries by any governmental authority, which taxes or other payments are calculated by reference to the income or profits or capital of such Person and/or its consolidated Restricted
          Subsidiaries (to the extent such income or profits were included in computing Consolidated Net Income for such period), including, without limitation, state, franchise and similar taxes and foreign withholding taxes regardless of whether such
          taxes or payments are required to be remitted to any governmental authority, computed on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP.

         

        “Consolidated Interest Expense” shall mean, with respect to any Person for any period, the interest expense of such Person and its consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries for such period
          determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP, plus to the extent not included in such interest expense:

         

        
          
            	

                  	(1)	
                    the portion of any payments or accruals with respect to Capitalized Lease Obligations or Attributable Indebtedness that are allocable to interest expense;

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(2)	
                    amortization of debt discount (including the amortization of original issue discount resulting from the issuance of Indebtedness at less than par) and debt issuance costs (provided, however, that any amortization of
                      bond premium will be credited to reduce Consolidated Interest Expense unless, pursuant to GAAP, such amortization of bond premium has otherwise reduced Consolidated Interest Expense);

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(3)	
                    non-cash interest expense, but any non-cash interest income or expense attributable to the movement in the mark-to-market valuation of Hedging Obligations or other derivative instruments pursuant to GAAP shall be excluded from the
                      calculation of Consolidated Interest Expense;

                  	(6)	
                    costs associated with entering into Hedging Obligations (including amortization of fees) related to Indebtedness;

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(7)	
                    interest expense that was capitalized during such period; and

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(8)	
                    the cash contributions to any employee stock ownership plan or similar trust to the extent such contributions are used by such plan or trust to pay interest or fees to any Person (other than the Borrower and its Restricted
                      Subsidiaries) in connection with Indebtedness Incurred by such plan or trust.

                  

          

        

         

        For purposes of the foregoing, total interest expense will be determined (i) after giving effect to any net payments made or received by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect
          to Interest Rate Agreements and (ii) exclusive of amounts classified as other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, commissions, discounts, yield and
          other fees and charges Incurred in connection with any transaction pursuant to which the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries may sell, convey or otherwise transfer or grant a security interest in any accounts receivable or related assets
          shall be included in Consolidated Interest Expense.

         

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Consolidated Interest Expense of the Pulitzer Entities shall not be included in the calculation of Consolidated Interest Expense for purposes of determining the
          amount available under Section 10.02(a)(v)(C)(1) to make Restricted Payments of the type described in Section 10.02(a)(i), (a)(ii), (a)(iv) and (a)(v) until the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date and so long as the Second Lien Term Loans are
          outstanding and such agreement (or any agreement or instrument governing any outstanding Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) includes provisions requiring that any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities must be applied (or,
          at the option of the lenders, must be applied), or that the Pulitzer Entities must use best, reasonable best or commercially reasonable efforts to use any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities, to repay borrowings under the Second Lien Term Loans
          (or any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) before such cash flow may be applied to pay principal of or interest on the Loans or any other Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness.  For purposes of the foregoing, no Indebtedness
          under the Second Lien Loan Documents (or any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Indebtedness under the Second Lien Loan Documents) will be deemed to include provisions to the foregoing effect solely by virtue of Liens on Lee Collateral,
          Pulitzer Collateral or other collateral, guarantees, maturity or structural subordination.

         

        “Consolidated Lee Current Assets” shall mean, at any time, the consolidated current assets of the Lee Entities at such time, but excluding (i) the current portion of deferred income

        “Consolidated Lee Current Liabilities” shall mean, at any time, the consolidated current liabilities of the Lee Entities at such time, but excluding (i) the current portion of deferred
          income taxes, (ii) the current portion of any Indebtedness under this Agreement, (iii) the current portion of any other long-term Indebtedness which would otherwise be included therein and (iv) liabilities incurred in connection with assets held
          for sale by the Lee Entities.

         

        “Consolidated Lee First Lien Leverage Ratio” shall mean, at any date of determination, the ratio of:

         

        
          
            	

                  	(1)	
                    the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Priority Payment Lien Obligations and Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, as of such date of determination (determined on a consolidated basis
                      in accordance with GAAP), to

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(2)	
                    Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters ending on or prior to the date of determination for which annual or quarterly financial statements are publicly available;

                  

          

        

         

        and in each case with such pro forma adjustments as are consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the
          definition of Consolidated Leverage Ratio; provided that, for the purpose of determining the Consolidated Lee First Lien Leverage Ratio, any Consolidated EBITDA of any Pulitzer Entity will not be included in the calculation of the
          Consolidated Lee First Lien Leverage Ratio prior to the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date or so long as any Pulitzer First Lien Indebtedness is outstanding or the Second Lien Term Loans are outstanding and the Second Lien Loan Documents (or any
          agreement or instrument governing any outstanding Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) include provisions requiring that any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities must be applied (or, at the option of the lenders, must be
          applied), or that the Pulitzer Entities must use best, reasonable best or commercially reasonable efforts to use any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities, to repay borrowings under the Second Lien Loan Documents (or any Indebtedness Incurred to
          Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) before such cash flow may be applied to pay principal of or interest on the Loans or any other Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness.  For purposes of the foregoing, the Second Lien Loan Documents (or any agreement or
          instrument governing any outstanding Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) will not be deemed to include provisions to the foregoing effect solely by virtue of Liens on Lee Collateral, Pulitzer Collateral or other
          collateral, guarantees, maturity or structural subordination.

         

        “Consolidated Leverage Ratio” shall mean at any date of determination the ratio of: (1) the sum (without duplication) of the aggregate outstanding amount of Indebtedness of the Borrower
          and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of the date of determination on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP to (2) the Borrower’s Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recently completed fiscal quarters (the “Four Quarter Period”)
          ending on or prior to the date of determination for which annual or quarterly financial statements are available, provided that any Indebtedness of any Pulitzer Entity and any Consolidated EBITDA of any Pulitzer Entity will not

         

        
          -19-

          
            

        

        be included in the calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio until the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date, provided further, that:

         

        
          
            	

                  	(1)	
                    if the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary:

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(a)	
                    has Incurred any Indebtedness since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period that remains outstanding on such date of determination or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Leverage Ratio
                      includes an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Consolidated EBITDA for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such
                      Indebtedness as if such Indebtedness had been Incurred on the first day of such period and the discharge of any other Indebtedness repaid, repurchased, redeemed, retired, defeased or otherwise discharged with the proceeds of such new
                      Indebtedness as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such Four Quarter Period; or

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(b)	
                    has repaid, repurchased, redeemed, retired, defeased or otherwise discharged any Indebtedness since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period that is no longer outstanding on such date of determination or if the transaction giving
                      rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Leverage Ratio includes a discharge of Indebtedness (in each case, other than Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving Debt Facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid
                      and the related commitment terminated and not replaced), Consolidated EBITDA for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma
                      basis to such discharge of such Indebtedness, including with the proceeds of such new Indebtedness, as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such Four Quarter Period;

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(2)	
                    if since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have made any Asset Disposition or disposed of or discontinued (as defined under GAAP) any company, division, operating unit,
                      segment, business, group of related assets (provided that such group of related assets has a Fair Market Value in excess of $2.5 million) or line of business or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the
                      Consolidated Leverage Ratio includes such a transaction:

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(a)	
                    the Consolidated EBITDA for such Four Quarter Period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to the assets that are the subject of such disposition or discontinuation for
                      such Four Quarter Period or increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) directly attributable thereto for such Four Quarter Period; and

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(b)	
                    Consolidated Interest Expense for such Four Quarter Period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense directly

                  

          

        

         

        
          -20-

          
            

        

        attributable to any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary repaid, repurchased, redeemed, retired, defeased or otherwise discharged (to the extent the related commitment is
          permanently reduced) with respect to the Borrower and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such transaction for such Four Quarter Period (or, if the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary is sold, the Consolidated
          Interest Expense for such period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent the Borrower and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale);

         

        
          
            	

                  	(3)	
                    if since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) shall have made an Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or any Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary or
                      is merged with or into the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition of assets, including any acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a transaction causing a calculation to be made hereunder, which constitutes
                      all or substantially all of a company, division, operating unit, segment, business, group of related assets (provided that such group of related assets has a Fair Market Value in excess of $2.5 million) or line of business,
                      Consolidated EBITDA for such Four Quarter Period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any
                      Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition occurred on the first day of such Four Quarter Period; and

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(4)	
                    if since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period) shall have
                      Incurred any Indebtedness or discharged any Indebtedness or made any disposition or any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) above if made by the Borrower or a
                      Restricted Subsidiary during such period, Consolidated EBITDA for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction occurred on the first day of such
                      Four Quarter Period.

                  

          

        

         

        If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the rate in
          effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Interest Rate Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness if such Interest Rate Agreement has a remaining term in excess of twelve
          months).  If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect bears an interest rate at the option of the Borrower, the interest rate shall be calculated by applying such optional rate chosen by the
          Borrower.  In making any pro forma calculation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving Debt Facility outstanding on the date of determination (other than any Indebtedness Incurred under such
          facility in connection with the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Leverage Ratio) will be deemed to be:

         

        

        
          -21-

          
            

        

        
          
            	

                  	(i)	
                    the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable Four Quarter Period or such shorter period for which such facility was outstanding; or

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(ii)	
                    if such facility was created after the end of such Four Quarter Period, the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the period from the date of creation of such facility to the date of such determination.

                  

          

        

         

        For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any calculation under this
          definition, the pro forma calculations shall be (x) made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower (and may include, for the
          avoidance of doubt, cost savings and operating expense reductions resulting from any Asset Disposition or Asset Acquisition which is being given pro forma effect
          that have been or are expected to be realized within twelve months after the date of such Asset Disposition or Asset Acquisition as the result of specified actions taken or to be taken within six months after such date) or (y) determined in
          accordance with Regulation S-X under the Securities Act; provided that, in connection with calculations to determine compliance with Section 10.09 only, any pro forma adjustments for Asset
          Acquisitions resulting from this definition shall not exceed 20% of Consolidated EBITDA related to such Asset Acquisition.

         

        “Consolidated Net Income” shall mean, as to any Person for any period, the net income (loss) of such Person and its consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries determined on a consolidated basis
          in accordance with GAAP (before Preferred Equity dividends other than with respect to Disqualified Stock); provided, however, that there will not be included in such Consolidated Net Income:

         

        
          
            	

                  	(1)	
                    any net income (loss) of any Person if such Person is not a Restricted Subsidiary or that is accounted for by the equity method of accounting, except that:

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(a)	
                    subject to the limitations contained in clauses (3) through (7) below, the Borrower’s equity in the net income of any such Person for such period will be included in such Consolidated Net Income up to the aggregate amount of cash
                      actually distributed by such Person to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during such period (subject, in the case of a dividend or other distribution to a Restricted Subsidiary, to the limitations contained in clause
                      (2) below); and

                  

          

        

         

        
          
            	

                  	(b)	
                    the Borrower’s equity in a net loss of any such Person for such period will be included in determining such Consolidated Net Income to the extent such loss has been funded with cash from the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary
                      during such period;

              the London interbank market.  In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration
              (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no
              longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to
              identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-In Election, Section 2.10(c) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify
              the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.10(f), of any change to the reference
              rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other
              matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such
              alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section
              2.10(d), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.10(e)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor
              or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Eurodollar Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or
              unavailability.

         

        1.04         Letter of Credit Amounts.  Unless
              otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the amount of such Letter of Credit available to be drawn at such time; provided that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or
              the terms of any Letter of Credit Agreement related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the available amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum amount of such Letter of Credit
              after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum amount is available to be drawn at such time.

         

        1.05         Divisions.  For all purposes under the
              Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right,
              obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been
              organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time.

        SECTION 2.          Amount and Terms of Credit.

         

        2.01         Loans.  (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Term Lender severally agrees to make a term loan (such term loan, a “Term Loan” and, collectively, the “Term
            Loans”) to the Borrower on the Effective Date in an amount not to exceed the amount of the Term Loan Commitment of such Term Lender.  Such Term Loan shall (i) be denominated in Dollars and (ii) except as hereinafter provided, shall, at the
          option of the Borrower, be maintained as, and/or converted into, Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, provided that except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 2.10(b), all Term Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all
          times be of the same Type.  Once repaid, Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

         

        (b)            Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment severally agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on or after
          the Effective Date and prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, a revolving loan or revolving loans (each, a “Revolving Loan” and, collectively, the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower, which Revolving Loans (i) shall be
          denominated in Dollars, (ii) shall, at the option of the Borrower, be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into, Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, provided that except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 2.10(b), all
          Revolving Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all times be of the same Type, (iii) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof, and (iv) shall not exceed for any such Lender at any time outstanding that
          aggregate principal amount which, when added to the product of (x) such Lender’s RL Percentage and (y) the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings (exclusive of Unpaid Drawings which are repaid with the proceeds of, and
          simultaneously with the incurrence of, the respective incurrence of Revolving Loans) at such time, equals the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender at such time.

         

        2.02         Minimum Amount of Each Borrowing.  The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Loans under a respective Tranche shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount
          applicable to such Tranche.  More than one Borrowing may occur on the same date, but at no time shall there be outstanding more than five Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans in the aggregate for all Tranches of Loans (or such greater number of
          Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent).

         

        2.03         Notice of Borrowing.  (a) Whenever the Borrower desires to incur (x) Eurodollar Loans hereunder, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office at
          least three Business Days’ prior notice of each Eurodollar Loan to be incurred hereunder, and (y) Base Rate Loans hereunder, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office at least one Business Day’s prior notice of each
          Base Rate Loan to be incurred hereunder, provided that (in each case) any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on such day. (Eeach such notice (together with each notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i), a “Notice of Borrowing”), except
          as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.10, shall be irrevocable and shall be in writing, or by telephone promptly confirmed in writing, in the form of Exhibit A-1, appropriately completed to specify:  (i) the aggregate principal amount of
          the Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing and whether the Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing shall be Term Loans (as to Loans made on the Effective Date) or Revolving Loans; (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be

         

        
          -82-

          
            

        

        a Business Day and which shall be the Effective Date if the Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing shall be Term Loans); and (iii) whether the Loans being incurred pursuant to such Borrowing are to be
          initially maintained as Base Rate Loans or, to the extent permitted hereunder, Eurodollar Loans and, if Eurodollar Loans, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender which is
          required to make Term Loans or Revolving Loans notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing.

         

        (b)            [Reserved].

         

        (c)           Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice of any Borrowing or prepayment of Loans, the Administrative Agent may act
          without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice of such Borrowing or prepayment, as the case may be, believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, prior to receipt of written
          confirmation.  In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice of such Borrowing or prepayment of Loans, as the case may be, absent manifest error.

         

        2.04         Disbursement of Funds.  No later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment or Term Loan
          Commitment (as to Loans made on the Effective Date), as applicable, will make available its pro rata portion (determined in accordance with Section 2.07) of each such Borrowing requested to be made on such date.  All such amounts will be
          made available in Dollars and in immediately available funds at the Payment Office, and the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower at the Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders.  Unless the
          Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the
          Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make
          available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand
          from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such
          corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the
          date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if recovered from such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Rategreater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined
              by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for the first three days and at the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Loans for each day thereafter, and (ii) if recovered

         

        
          -83-

          
            

        

        from the Borrower, the rate of interest applicable to the respective Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 2.08.  Nothing in this Section 2.04 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to
          make Loans hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any failure by such Lender to make Loans hereunder.

         

        2.05        Notes.  (a)  The Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced in the Register maintained by the
          Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.15 and shall, if requested by such Lender, also be evidenced (i) in the case of Term Loans, by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1,
          with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Term Note” and, collectively, the “Term Notes”) and (ii) in the case of Revolving Loans, by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Borrower
          substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Revolving Note” and, collectively, the “Revolving Notes”).

         

        (b)           The Term Note issued to each Term Lender that has outstanding Term Loans shall (i) be executed by the Borrower, (ii) be payable to such Term Lender or its registered assigns and be
          dated the Effective Date (or, if issued after the Effective Date, be dated the date of issuance thereof), (iii) be in a stated principal amount equal to the Term Loans of such Term Lender as of the Effective Date (or, if issued after the
          Effective Date, be in a stated principal amount equal to the outstanding Term Loans of such Term Lender at such time) and be payable in the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans evidenced thereby from time to time, (iv) mature on the Term
          Loan Maturity Date, (v) bear interest as provided in the appropriate clause of Section 2.08 in respect of the Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Loans, as the case may be, evidenced thereby, (vi) be subject to voluntary prepayment as provided in
          Section 5.01, and mandatory repayment as provided in Section 5.02, and (vii) be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other CreditLoan Documents.

         

        (c)           The Revolving Note issued to each Lender that has a Revolving Loan Commitment or outstanding Revolving Loans shall (i) be executed by the Borrower, (ii) be payable to such Lender or
          its registered assigns and be dated the Effective Date (or, if issued after the Effective Date, be dated the date of the issuance thereof), (iii) be in a stated principal amount equal to the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender (or, if issued
          after the termination thereof, be in a stated principal amount equal to the outstanding Revolving Loans of such Lender at such time) and be payable in the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans evidenced thereby from time to time,
          (iv) mature on the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, (v) bear interest as provided in the appropriate clause of Section 2.08 in respect of the Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Loans, as the case may be, evidenced thereby, (vi) be subject to voluntary
          prepayment as provided in Section 5.01, and mandatory repayment as provided in Section 5.02, and (vii) be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other CreditLoan Documents.

         

        (d)            [Reserved]

         

        (e)            Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof and prior to any transfer of any of its Notes will endorse on
          the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby.  Failure

         

        
          -84-

          
            

        

        to make any such notation or any error in such notation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Notes or Loans.

         

        (f)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.05 or elsewhere in this Agreement, Notes shall only be delivered to Lenders which at any time
          specifically request the delivery of such Notes.  No failure of any Lender to request or obtain a Note evidencing its Loans shall affect or in any manner impair the obligations of the Borrower to pay the Loans (and all related Obligations) which
          would otherwise be evidenced thereby in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, and shall not in any way affect the security or guaranties therefor provided pursuant to the various CreditLoan Documents.  Any Lender which does not have a Note evidencing its outstanding Loans shall in no event be required to make
          the notations otherwise described in preceding clause (e).  At any time when any Lender requests the delivery of a Note to evidence any of its Loans, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to the respective Lender the requested Note in
          the appropriate amount or amounts to evidence such Loans.

         

        2.06         Conversions.  The Borrower shall have the option to convert, on any Business Day, all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal
          amount of Loans made pursuant to one or more Borrowings (so long as of the same Tranche) of one or more Types of Loans into a Borrowing (of the same Tranche) of another Type of Loan, provided that (i) except as otherwise provided in
          Section 2.10(b), Eurodollar Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Loans being converted and no such partial conversion of Eurodollar Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal
          amount of such Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, (ii) unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, Base Rate Loans may only be converted into Eurodollar Loans if no
          Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion, and (iii) no conversion pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall result in a greater number of Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans than is permitted under Section 2.02.  Each such
          conversion shall be effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) at least (x) in the case of conversions of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans, three Business Days’ prior
          notice, and (y) in the case of conversions of Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans, one Business Day’s prior notice (each, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”), in each case in the form of Exhibit A-2, appropriately completed to specify
          the Loans to be so converted, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Loans were incurred and, if to be converted into Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall give each
          Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Loans.

         

        2.07         Pro Rata Borrowings.  All Borrowings of Revolving Loans under this Agreement after the Effective Date shall be incurred from the RL Lenders pro rata on the basis of their
          Revolving Loan Commitments.  It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender of its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it
          hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans hereunder.

         

        2.08          Interest.

         

        
          -85-

          
            

        

        (a)            The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate Loan from the date of Borrowing thereof until the earlier of (i) the maturity
          thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (ii) the conversion of such Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.09, as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall be equal to the sum of the relevant Applicable
          Margin plus the Base Rate.

         

        (b)            The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan from the date of Borrowing thereof until the earlier of (i) the maturity
          thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (ii) the conversion of such Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.06, 2.09 or 2.10, as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall, during each Interest Period applicable
          thereto, be equal to the sum of the relevant Applicable Margin plus the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period.

         

        (c)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of each Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate which is 2%
          in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan, at all times that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In addition (but without duplication of any amounts payable pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence),
          overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of each Loan shall, in each case, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (A) in the case of Loans, the greater of (x) the rate which is 2% in excess of the
          rate then borne by such Loans and (y) the rate which is 2% in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to Base Rate Loans of the respective Tranche from time to time and (B) in the case of other overdue amounts payable hereunder and under any
          other CreditLoan Document, at a rate per annum equal to the
          rate which is 2% in excess of the rate applicable to Revolving Loans that are maintained at Base Rate Loans from time to time.  Interest that accrues under this Section 2.08(c) shall be payable on demand.  Payment or acceptance of the increased
          rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.08(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent
          or any Lender.

         

        (d)           Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be payable in cash (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan,  (x) quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, (y) on the date
          of any repayment or prepayment in full of all outstanding Base Rate Loans, and (z) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand and (ii) in respect of each Eurodollar Loan, (x) on the last day of each
          Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, (y) on the date of any repayment or prepayment (on
          the amount repaid or prepaid), and (z) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.

         

        (e)           Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period applicable to the respective Eurodollar Loans and shall
          promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders thereof.  Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

         

        
          -86-

          
            

        

        2.09          Interest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into, any Eurodollar
          Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto), or prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loan (in the case of any subsequent
          Interest Period), the Borrower shall have the right to elect the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) applicable to such Eurodollar Loan, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be a one, two, three or six month
          period, provided that (in each case):

         

        (i)             all Eurodollar Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

         

        (ii)            the initial Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan shall commence on the date of Borrowing of such Eurodollar Loan (including the date of any conversion
          thereto from a Base Rate Loan) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Eurodollar Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

         

        (iii)           if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such
          Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

         

        (iv)          if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding
          Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month,
          such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

         

        (v)            unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, no Interest Period may be selected at any time when a Default or an Event of Default is then in existence; and

         

        (vi)           no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of any Tranche of Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the Maturity Date for such Tranche of Loans.

         

        If by 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower has failed to elect, or is not permitted to
          elect, a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current
          Interest Period.

         

        2.10          Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.  (a) In the event that any Lender or Agent shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive
          and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) below, may be made only by the Administrative Agent):

         

        
          -87-

          
            

        

        (i)          on any Interest Determination Date that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and
          fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Eurodollar Base
          Rate; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or

         

        (ii)         at any time, that such Lender or Agent shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Eurodollar
          Loan because of (x) any change since the Effective Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including
          the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, such as, but not limited to:  (A) the imposition of Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or (B) Taxes in clauses (iib) – (vd) of the definition of Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, on
          its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or (B) a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the
          Eurodollar Base Rate and/or (y) other circumstances arising since the Effective Date affecting such Lender, the interbank
          Eurodollar market or the position of such Lender in such market, provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this provision shall apply to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests,
          rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or
          similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued; or

         

        (iii)         at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any law or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible
          by compliance by any Lender in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Effective Date which materially and adversely affects the interbank
          Eurodollar market;

         

        then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent,) shall promptly give notice (by telephone promptly confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and, except in the case of clause (i) above, to the
          Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders).  Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Eurodollar Loans shall no longer be available until such
          time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by the
          Borrower with respect to Eurodollar Loans which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender or Agent, upon
          such Lender or Agent’s written request therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender or Agent in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be
          required to compensate such Lender or Agent for such

         

        
          -88-

          
            

        

        increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender or Agent, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation
          thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender or Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions
          specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

         

        (b)           At any time that any Eurodollar Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii), the Borrower may, and in the case of a Eurodollar Loan affected by the
          circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(iii), the Borrower shall, either (x) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then being made initially or pursuant to a conversion, cancel such Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice
          (confirmed in writing) on the same date that the Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii) or (y) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three
          Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert such Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan, provided that, if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must
          be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.10(b).

         

        (c)           If any Lender determines that after the Effective Date the introduction of or any change in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline, directive or
          request (whether or not having the force of law) concerning capital adequacy or liquidity requirements, or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by the NAIC or any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, will
          have the effect of increasing the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence of such Lender’s Commitments hereunder or its obligations
          hereunder, then the Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other
          corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital or liquidity.  In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will
          use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.10(c) shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties
          hereto.  Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation
          of such additional amounts.

         

        (d)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election,
                as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the Eurodollar Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00
                p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower, so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such
                proposed amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders; provided that, with respect to any proposed amendment containing any SOFR-Based Rate, the Lenders shall

         

        
          -89-

          
            

        

        be entitled to object only to the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment contained therein.  Any such
              amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No
              replacement of Eurodollar Rate with a Benchmark Replacement will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

         

        (e)           In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes
                from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of
                any other party to this Agreement.

         

        (f)           The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election,
                as applicable,  (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Any
                determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any
                determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest
                error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.10.

         

        (g)          Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (i) any Notice of Conversion/Continuation that requests the
                conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Loan shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Eurodollar Loan, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Loan.

         

        2.11        Compensation.  The Borrower agrees to compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such
          compensation), for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Eurodollar
          Loans but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain:  (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of, or conversion from or into, Eurodollar Loans does not occur
          on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.10(a)); (ii) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment
          or repayment made pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 11) or conversion of any of its Eurodollar Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period with
          respect thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; or (iv) as a consequence of (x) any other default by the Borrower to repay Eurodollar

         

        
          -90-

          
            

        

        Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or any Note held by such Lender or (y) any cancellation or conversion made pursuant to Section 2.10(b).

         

        2.12         Change of Lending Office.  Each Lender agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 2.10(c), Section 3.06
          or Section 5.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected
          by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the
          operation of such Section.  Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Sections 2.10, 3.06 and 5.04. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs
          and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

         

        2.13        Replacement of Lenders.  (x) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (y) upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii),
          Section 2.10(c), Section 3.06 or Section 5.04 with respect to any Lender which results in such Lender charging to the Borrower increased costs in excess of those being generally charged by the other Lenders or (z) in the case of a refusal by a
          Lender to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to this Agreement which has been approved by the Required Lenders as (and to the extent) provided in Section 13.12(b), the Borrower shall have the right, in
          accordance with Section 13.04(b), if no Default or Event of Default then exists or would exist after giving effect to such replacement, to replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other Eligible Transferees, none of
          whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) and each of which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent or, in the case of a replacement as provided in
          Section 13.12(b) where the consent of the respective Lender is required with respect to less than all Tranches of its Loans or Commitments, to replace the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of such Lender in respect of each Tranche where the
          consent of such Lender would otherwise be individually required, with identical Commitments and/or Loans of the respective Tranche provided by the Replacement Lender; provided that:

         

        (a)            at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.13, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment and Assumption Agreements pursuant
          to Section 13.04(b) (and with all fees payable pursuant to said Section 13.04(b) to be paid by the Replacement Lender) pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of the applicable Tranche
          of, and, in the case of the replacement of Revolving Loan Commitments or Revolving Loans of the respective Lender, all participations in Letters of Credit by, the respective Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to (x) the
          Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the respective Replaced Lender under each Tranche with respect to which such Replaced
          Lender is being replaced, (B) an amount equal to all Unpaid Drawings (unless there are no Unpaid Drawings with respect to the Tranche being replaced) that have been funded by (and not reimbursed to) such Replaced Lender, together

         

        
          -91-

          
            

        

        with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time, and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, Fees owing to the Replaced Lender (but only with respect to the
          relevant Tranche, in the case of the replacement of less than all Tranches of Loans then held by the respective Replaced Lender) pursuant to Section 4.01 and (y) in the case of the replacement of Revolving Loan Commitments or Revolving Loans,
          each Issuing Lender an amount equal to such Replaced Lender’s RL Percentage of any Unpaid Drawing relating to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender (which at such time remains an Unpaid Drawing) to the extent such amount was not
          theretofore funded by such Replaced Lender; and

         

        (b)          all obligations of the Borrower then owing to the Replaced Lender (other than those (i) specifically described in clause (a) above in respect of which the
          assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid, but including all amounts, if any, owing under Section 2.11 or (ii) relating to any Tranche of Loans and/or Commitments of the respective Replaced Lender which will remain
          outstanding after giving effect to the respective replacement) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement.

         

        Upon receipt by the Replaced Lender of all amounts required to be paid to it pursuant to this Section 2.13, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) and authorized to execute an Assignment and
          Assumption Agreement on behalf of such Replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Assumption Agreement so executed by the Administrative Agent and the Replacement Lender shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.13 and Section 13.04. 
          Upon the execution of the respective Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (a) and (b) above, recordation of the assignment on the Register by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.15 and, if
          so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, (x) the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and, unless the respective Replaced Lender continues
          to have outstanding Term Loans and/or a Revolving Loan Commitment hereunder, the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation,
          Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06, 5.04, 12.0612.07, 13.01 and
          13.06), which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender, and (y) except in the case of the replacement of only outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13, the RL Percentages of the Lenders shall be automatically adjusted at such time to
          give effect to such replacement.

         

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

         

        (a)            fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 6.13;

         

        (b)            the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Extensions of Credit of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have
                taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other

         

        
          -92-

          
            

        

        modification pursuant to Section 13.12); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the
              case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby.

         

        SECTION 3.          Letters of Credit.

         

        3.01         Letters of Credit.  (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request that anany Issuing Lender to issue, at any time and from time to time on and after the Effective Date and prior to the 30th day prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity
          Date, for the account of the Borrower and for the benefit of (x) any holder (or any trustee, agent or other similar representative for any such holders) of L/C Supportable Obligations, an irrevocable standby letter of credit, in a form
          customarily used by such Issuing Lender or in such other form as is reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Lender, and (y) sellers of goods to the Borrower or any of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries, an irrevocable trade letter of credit, in a form
          customarily used by such Issuing Lender or in such other form as has been approved by such Issuing Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed by such Issuing Lender) (each such letter of credit, a “Letter of Credit”
          and, collectively, the “Letters of Credit”).  All Letters of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars and shall be issued on a sight basis only.

         

        (b)           Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Issuing Lender agrees that it will, at any time and from time to time on and after the Effective Date and prior
          to the 30th day prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, following its receipt of the respective Letter of Credit Request, issue for account of the Borrower, one or more Letters of Credit as are permitted to remain outstanding hereunder without
          giving rise to a Default or an Event of Default, provided that no Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit of the types described above if at the time of such issuance:

         

        (i)           any order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such
          Letter of Credit or any requirement of law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or
          request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital
          requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect with respect to such Issuing Lender on the Effective Date, or any unreimbursed loss,
          cost or expense which was not applicable or in effect with respect to such Issuing Lender as of the Effective Date and which such Issuing Lender reasonably

              and in good faith deems material to it; or

         

        (ii)            such Issuing Lender shall have received from the Borrower, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit notice
          of the type described in the second sentence of Section 3.03(b).

         

        3.02          Maximum Letter of Credit Outstandings; Final Maturities.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) no Letter of Credit shall

         

        
          -93-

          
            

        

        be issued the Stated Amount of which, when added to the Letter of Credit Outstandings (exclusive of Unpaid Drawings which are repaid on the date of, and prior to the issuance of, the respective Letter of Credit) at
          such time would exceed either (x) $20,000,000 or (y) when added to the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding, an amount equal to the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time, and (ii) each Letter of Credit shall
          by its terms terminate (x) in the case of standby Letters of Credit, on or before the earlier of (A) the date which occurs 12 months after the date of the issuance thereof (although any such standby Letter of Credit may be extendible for
          successive periods of up to 12 months, but, in each case, not beyond the tenth Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, on terms acceptable to the respective Issuing Lender) and (B) ten Business Days prior to the Revolving Loan
          Maturity Date, and (y) in the case of trade Letters of Credit, on or before the earlier of (A) the date which occurs 180 days after the date of issuance thereof and (B) 30 days prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date.

         

        3.03          Letter of Credit Requests; Minimum Stated Amount.  (a)  Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued for its account, the Borrower shall give the
          Administrative Agent and the respective Issuing Lender at least (or the amendment or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit)
          five Business Days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to such Issuing Lender) written notice thereof (including by way of facsimile).  Each notice shall be in the form of Exhibit C, appropriately completed (each, a “Letter of Credit
            Request”).

         

        (b)           The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower to the Lenders that such Letter of Credit may be issued (or amended or extended) in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Section 3.02.  Unless the respective
          Issuing Lender has received notice from the Borrower, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders before it issues (or amends or
              extends) a Letter of Credit that one or more of the conditions specified in Section 7 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance (or amendment or extension) of such Letter of Credit would violate Section 3.02, then such Issuing Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, issue the requested Letter of Credit for the
          account of the Borrower in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s usual and customary practices.  In addition, as a condition to any
              such Letter of Credit issuance, the Borrower shall have entered into a continuing agreement (or other letter of credit agreement) for the issuance of letters of credit and/or shall submit a Letter of Credit Request in each case, as required
              by the respective Issuing Lender and using such Issuing Lender’s standard form (each, a “Letter of Credit Agreement”). In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this
              Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.  Upon the issuance of or modification or amendment

          to or extension of any standby Letter of Credit, each Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the
          Administrative Agent, in writing of such issuance, modification or amendment and such notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such Letter of Credit or the respective modification or amendment thereto or extension thereof, as the
          case may be.  Promptly after receipt of such notice the Administrative Agent shall notify the Participants, in writing, of such issuance, modification or amendment or extension.  On the first Business Day of each week, each Issuing Lender shall furnish the Administrative Agent with a
          written (including via facsimile) report of the daily aggregate outstandings of trade Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for the immediately preceding week.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this

         

        

        
          -94-

          
            

        

        Agreement, in the event that a Lender Default exists with respect to a RL Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue (or amend or extend) any Letter of Credit unless such Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it and the Borrower to eliminate such Issuing Lender’s risk with respect to the
          participation in Letters of Credit by the Defaulting Lender or Lenders, including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s or Lenders’ RL Percentage of the Letter of Credit Outstandings.

         

        (c)            The initial Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit shall not be less than $100,000 or such lesser amount as is acceptable to the respective
          Issuing Lender.

         

        3.04         Letter of Credit Participations.  (a)  Immediately upon the issuance by an Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold and
          transferred to each RL Lender, and each such RL Lender (in its capacity under this Section 3.04, a “Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Issuing Lender, without recourse or
          warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Participant’s RL Percentage, in such Letter of Credit, each drawing or payment made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto,
          and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto.  Upon any change in the Revolving Loan Commitments or RL Percentages of the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13, 4.02(b) or 13.04(b), it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding
          Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings relating thereto, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 3.04 to reflect the new RL Percentages of the assignor and assignee Lender, as the case may be.

         

        (b)           In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation relative to the other Lenders other than to confirm that any documents required
          to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to substantially comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.  Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuing Lender
          under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it shall not create for such Issuing Lender any resulting liability to the Borrower, any other Credit Party, any Lender or any other Person unless such action is taken or omitted to be
          taken with gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuing Lender (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

         

        (c)          In the event that an Issuing Lender makes any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it and the Borrower shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such Issuing Lender
          pursuant to Section 3.05(a), such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Participant of such failure, and each Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to such Issuing Lender the
          amount of such Participant’s RL Percentage of such unreimbursed payment in Dollars and in same day funds without any offset,
              abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.  If the Administrative Agent so notifies, prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) on any Business Day, any Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit, such
          Participant shall make available to the respective Issuing Lender in Dollars such Participant’s RL Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds.  If and to the extent such Participant shall not have so made its
          RL Percentage of the amount of such payment available to respective Issuing Lender, such Participant agrees to pay

         

        
          -95-

          
            

        

        to such Issuing Lender, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to such Issuing Lender
              at, the overnight Federal Funds Rate greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by
              the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for the first
          three days and at the interest rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Loans that are maintained as Base Rate Loans for
          each day thereafter.  The failure of any Participant to make available to an Issuing Lender its RL Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender shall not relieve any other Participant of its obligation
          hereunder to make available to such Issuing Lender its RL Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other Participant to make
          available to such Issuing Lender such other Participant’s RL Percentage of any such payment.

         

        (d)           Whenever an Issuing Lender receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which it has received any payments from the Participants pursuant to clause (c) above, such Issuing
          Lender shall pay to each such Participant which has paid its RL Percentage thereof, in Dollars and in same day funds, an amount equal to such Participant’s share (based upon the proportionate aggregate amount originally funded by such Participant
          to the aggregate amount funded by all Participants) of the principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations.

         

        (e)            Upon the request of any Participant, each Issuing Lender shall furnish to such Participant copies of any standby Letter of Credit issued by it and such other documentation as may
          reasonably be requested by such Participant.

         

        (f)           The obligations of the Participants to make payments to each Issuing Lender with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to any qualification or exception
          whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

         

        (i)             any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other CreditLoan Documents;

         

        (ii)           the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a
          Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, any Participant, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit,
          the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

         

        (iii)           any draft, certificate or any other document presented under any 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;

         

        
          -96-

          
            

        

        (iv)           the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the CreditLoan Documents; or

         

        (v)            the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default.;

         

        (vi)           any amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit; or

         

        (vii)          the occurrence of the Revolving Loan Maturity Date or the reduction or termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments.

         

        3.05         Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Drawings.  (a)  The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Issuing Lender, by making payment to the Administrative Agent in immediately
          available funds at the Payment Office, for any payment or disbursement made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit issued by it (each such amount, so paid until reimbursed by the Borrower, an “Unpaid Drawing”), not later than
          one Business Day following receipt by the Borrower of notice of such payment or disbursement (provided that no such notice shall be required to be given if a Default or an Event of Default under Section 11.05 shall have occurred and be
          continuing, in which case the Unpaid Drawing shall be due and payable immediately without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind (all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower)), with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by
          such Issuing Lender, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but excluding the date such Issuing Lender was reimbursed by the
          Borrower therefor at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin as in effect from time to time for Revolving Loans that are maintained as Base Rate Loans; provided, however,
          to the extent such amounts are not reimbursed prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the third Business Day following the receipt by the Borrower of notice of such payment or disbursement or following the occurrence of a Default or an Event of
          Default under Section 11.05, interest shall thereafter accrue on the amounts so paid or disbursed by such Issuing Lender (and until reimbursed by the Borrower) at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus the
          Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are maintained as Base Rate Loans as in effect from time to time plus 2%, with such interest to be payable on demand.  Each Issuing Lender shall give the Borrower prompt written notice of each
          Drawing under any Letter of Credit issued by it, provided that the failure to give any such notice shall in no way affect, impair or diminish the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

         

        (b)           The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 3.05 to reimburse each Issuing Lender with respect to drafts, demands and other presentations for payment under Letters of Credit
          issued by it (each, a “Drawing”) (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances and
          irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower may have or have had against any Lender (including in its capacity as an Issuing Lender or as a Participant), including, without limitation, any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any nonapplication or misapplication by the beneficiary of the
              proceeds of such Drawing; provided, however, that the
              Borrower shall not be obligated to reimburse any Issuing Lender for any

         

        
          -97-

          
            

        

        wrongful payment made by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by it as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct orany beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.  The Borrower also agrees with the Issuing Lender that the Issuing Lender shall
              not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among
              other things, (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (b) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be invalid, fraudulent or
              forged in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (c) any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be
              transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee, (d) payment by the respective Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other
              document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (e) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal
              or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. The Issuing Lender shall not have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter
              of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft,
              notice or message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in translation or any
              consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the respective Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed
              to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s failure to
              exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of suchan Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).), the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with
              respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without
              responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of
              Credit.

         

        3.06         Increased Costs.  If at any time after the Effective Date, the introduction of or any change in any applicable law, rule, regulation, order, guideline or request or in the
          interpretation or administration thereof by the NAIC or any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Issuing Lender or any Participant with any request or directive by the NAIC or by
          any such governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by any Issuing Lender or

         

        
          -98-

          
            

        

        participated in by any Participant, (ii) impose any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, or (B) Taxes in clauses (iib) – (vd)
          of the definition of Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, on its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto,  or (iii) impose on any Issuing Lender or any
          Participant any other conditions (other than Taxes) relating, directly or indirectly, to this Agreement or any Letter of Credit; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Issuing Lender or any Participant of issuing,
          maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Issuing Lender or any Participant hereunder or reduce the rate of return on its capital with respect to Letters of Credit (except
          for changes in the rate of tax on, or determined by reference to, the net income or net profits of such Issuing Lender or such Participant pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or in which its principal office or
          applicable lending office is located or any subdivision thereof or therein), then, upon the delivery of the certificate referred to below to the Borrower by any Issuing Lender or any Participant (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such
          Issuing Lender or such Participant to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower agrees to pay to such Issuing Lender or such Participant such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Issuing Lender or such Participant for such increased
          cost or reduction in the amount receivable or reduction on the rate of return on its capital.  Any Issuing Lender or any Participant, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable to it pursuant to this Section 3.06, will give
          prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall include a certificate submitted to the Borrower by such Issuing Lender or such Participant (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such Issuing Lender or such Participant to
          the Administrative Agent), setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Issuing Lender or such Participant.  The certificate required to be delivered pursuant
          to this Section 3.06 shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on the Borrower.

         

        3.07         Replacement and Resignation of an Issuing Lender.  (i) An Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders
              of any such replacement of an Issuing Lender.  At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 4.01(a).  From and after
              the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (y)
              references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require.  After the replacement of an
              Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such
              replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or extend or otherwise amend any existing Letter of Credit.

         

        (ii)          Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Lender, any Issuing Lender may resign as an Issuing Lender at any time upon thirty days’ prior
                written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such resigning  Issuing Lender shall be replaced in accordance with clause (i) above.

        3.08          Cash Collateralization.  If any Event of
              Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with Letter of Credit
              Outstandings representing greater than 105% of the total Letter of Credit Outstandings) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name
              of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders (the “Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Outstandings as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the
              obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to
              the Borrower described in Section 11.05.  Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. In addition, and without limiting the
              foregoing or Section 3.02, if any Letter of Credit Outstandings remain outstanding after the expiration date specified in Section 3.02, the Borrower shall immediately deposit into the Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to 105% of such
              Letter of Credit Outstandings as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

         

        The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the
              exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account.  Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and
              expense, such deposits shall not bear interest.  Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account.  Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Lender for
              Letter of Credit Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, together with related fees, costs and customary processing charges, and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of
              the Borrower for the Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with Letter of Credit Outstandings  representing greater than 105% of the total
              Letter of Credit Outstandings), be applied to satisfy other Obligations.  If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not
              applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

         

        SECTION 4.          Commitment Fee; Fees; Reductions of Commitment.

         

        4.01          Fees.  (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Non-Defaulting RL Lender a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) for the
          period from and including the Effective Date to and including the Revolving Loan Maturity Date (or such earlier date on which the Total Revolving Loan Commitment has been terminated) computed at a rate per annum equal to the Commitment Fee Percentage of the Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitment of such Non-Defaulting RL Lender as in effect from time to time.  Accrued Commitment Fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each
          Quarterly Payment Date and on the date upon which the Total Revolving Loan Commitment is terminated.

         

        

        
          -100-

          
            

        

        
          
            (b)           The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each RL Lender (based on each such RL Lender’s respective RL Percentage) a fee in respect of each outstanding Letter of Credit (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for the period from and including the date of issuance of
              such Letter of Credit to and including the later of the date of termination or expiration of such Letter of Credit and the date on which such RL Lender ceases to have any remaining extensions of credit in respect thereof, computed at a
              rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin during such period with respect to Revolving Loans that are maintained as Eurodollar Loans on the daily Stated Amount of each such Letter of Credit.  Accrued Letter of Credit Fees shall be due and
              payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the first day on or after the termination of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment upon which no Letters of Credit remain outstanding.

             

            (c)            The Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Lender, for its own account, a facing fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by it (the “Facing Fee”) for the period
              from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the later of the date of termination
              or expiration of such Letter of Credit and the date on which such RL Lender ceases to have any remaining extensions of credit in
                  respect thereof, computed at a rate per annum equal to 1/8 of 1% on the daily Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit, provided that in any event the minimum amount of Facing Fees payable in any twelve-month period for
              each Letter of Credit shall be not less than $500, it being agreed that, on the day of issuance of any Letter of Credit and on each anniversary thereof prior to the termination or expiration of such Letter of Credit, if $500 will exceed the
              amount of Facing Fees that will accrue with respect to such Letter of Credit for the immediately succeeding twelve-month period, the full $500 shall be payable on the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit and on each such anniversary
              thereof.  Except as otherwise provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, accrued Facing Fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and upon the first day on or after the termination
              of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment upon which no Letters of Credit remain outstanding.

             

            (d)          The Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Lender, for its own account, upon each payment under, issuance of, or amendment

              to or extension of, any Letter of Credit issued by it, such amount as shall at the time of such event be the
              administrative charge, other processing fees, other standard costs and expenses and the reasonable expenses which such
              Issuing Lender is generally imposing in connection with such occurrence with respect to letters of credit.

             

            (e)            The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such fees as may be agreed to in writing from time to time by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and the
              Administrative Agent.

             

            4.02         Voluntary Termination of Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitments.  (a)  Upon at least three Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent at the Notice
              Office (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, without premium or penalty to terminate the Total Unutilized Revolving Loan
              Commitment in whole, or reduce it in part, pursuant to this Section 4.02(a), in an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in the case of partial reductions to the Total Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitment, provided that each such reduction

             

            
              -101-

              
                

            

            shall apply proportionately to permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment of each RL Lender.

             

            (b)           In the event of certain refusals by a Lender to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved
              by the Required Lenders as (and to the extent) provided in Section 13.12(b), the Borrower shall have the right, subject to obtaining the consents required by Section 13.12(b), upon five Business Days’ prior written notice to the
              Administrative Agent at the Notice Office (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), to terminate the entire Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender, so long as all Loans, together with accrued
              and unpaid interest, Fees and all other amounts, owing to such Lender (including all amounts, if any, owing pursuant to Section 2.11 but excluding amounts owing in respect of Loans of any Tranche maintained by such Lender, if such Loans are
              not being repaid pursuant to Section 5.01(b)) are repaid concurrently with the effectiveness of such termination (at which time Schedule I shall be deemed modified to reflect such changed amounts) and such Lender’s RL Percentage, if any, of
              all outstanding Letters of Credit is cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the respective Issuing Lenders, and at such time, unless the respective Lender continues to have outstanding Term Loans

              without limitation, Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06, 5.04, 12.0612.07,
              13.01 and 13.06), which shall survive as to such repaid Lender (but only in respect of the period of time during which such repaid Lender was a Lender hereunder).

            (a)           The Total Revolving Loan Commitment (and the Revolving
              Loan Commitment of each RL Lender) shall terminate in its entirety upon the earlier of (i) the Revolving Loan Maturity Date and (ii) unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree in writing, the date on which a Change of Control occurs.

             

            (b)          On July 31, 2019, the Revolving Loan Commitment of each RL Lender (and the Total Revolving Loan Commitment) in effect on such date shall be automatically
                    and permanently reduced by 15% and after giving effect to such reduction, the Borrower shall be in compliance with Section 5.02(a).

              at least one Business Day’s prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of its intent to prepay Base Rate Loans and (y) at least three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed
              in writing) of its intent to prepay Eurodollar Loans, which notice (in each case) shall specify whether Term Loans or Revolving Loans shall be prepaid, the

             

            
              -102-

              
                

            

            amount of such prepayment and the Types of Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the specific Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Eurodollar Loans were made, and which notice the
              Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders; (ii) (x) each partial prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01(a) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $2,000,000 (or such lesser amount as is
              acceptable to the Administrative Agent) and (y) each partial prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01(a) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as is acceptable to the
              Administrative Agent), provided that if any partial prepayment of Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to any Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than
              the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, then such Borrowing may not be continued as a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans (and same shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans) and any election of an Interest
              Period with respect thereto given by the Borrower shall have no force or effect; (iii) each prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.01(a) in respect of any Revolving Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied to the Revolving Loans,
              with each RL Lender to be allocated its applicable RL Percentage of the amount of such prepayment, provided that at the Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01(a), such
              prepayment shall not, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, be applied to any Revolving Loan of a Defaulting Lender; (iv) each voluntary prepayment in respect of any Term Loans made
                pursuant to this Section 5.01(a) shall be allocated to the Term Loans, with each Term Lender to be allocated its applicable Term Loan Percentage of the amount of such prepayment; and (v) each
                voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01(a) (in excess of amounts required to be paid for the applicable period pursuant to Section

                5.02) shall be applied to reduce the remaining Scheduled Term Loan Repayments of such Term Loans in inverse order of maturity.

             

            (b)           In the event of certain refusals by a Lender to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved
              by the Required Lenders as (and to the extent) provided in Section 13.12(b), the Borrower may, upon five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office (which notice the Administrative Agent shall
              promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), repay all Loans of such Lender (including all amounts, if any, owing pursuant to Section 2.11), together with accrued and unpaid interest, Fees and all other amounts then owing to such Lender (or
              owing to such Lender with respect to each Tranche which gave rise to the need to obtain such Lender’s individual consent) in accordance with, and subject to the requirements of, said Section 13.12(b), so long as (A) in the case of the
              repayment of Revolving Loans of any Lender pursuant to this clause (b), (x) the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender is terminated concurrently with such repayment pursuant to Section 4.02(b) (at which time Schedule I shall be deemed
              modified to reflect the changed Revolving Loan Commitments) and (y) such Lender’s RL Percentage, if any, of all outstanding Letters of Credit is cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the respective
              Issuing Lenders and (B) the consents, if any, required by Section 13.12(b) in connection with the repayment pursuant to this clause (b) shall have been obtained.  Each prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant
                to this Section 5.01(b) shall be applied to reduce the then remaining Scheduled Term Loan Repayments of such Term

             

            
              -103-

              
                

            

            Loans on a pro rata basis (based upon the remaining principal amount of each such Scheduled Term Loan Repayments after giving effect to all prior reductions thereto).

             

            (c)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that the Borrower (i) prepays, refinances, substitutes or replaces any Term Loans in connection with a Repricing
              Transaction, or (ii) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the Borrower shall pay to the Term Lenders, a prepayment fee equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of such prepayment (or, in the
              case of clause (ii) above, of the aggregate amount of Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment) if made on or prior to the date that is one year after the Effective Date.

             

            5.02        Mandatory Repayments.  (a) On any day on which the sum of (I) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans (after giving effect to all other
              repayments thereof on such date) and (II) the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time, the Borrower shall prepay on such day Revolving Loans in an amount equal to such
              excess.  If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans, the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time, the Borrower shall pay to the
              Administrative Agent at the Payment Office on such day an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to the amount of such excess (up to a maximum amount equal to the Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time), such cash and/or Cash
              Equivalents to be held as security for all Obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be established by the Administrative Agent.

             

            (b)          Subject to Section 9.16, inIn addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 5.02, on the fifteenth calendar day (or, if not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) of each March,
              June, September and December, the Borrower shall be required to repay $6,250,000 of the principal amount of Term Loans, to the extent then outstanding, and the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans then outstanding shall be repaid on
              the Term Loan Maturity Date (each such date, a “Scheduled Term Loan Repayment Date”; each such repayment, as the same may be reduced as provided in Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b), a “Scheduled Term Loan Repayment”).

             

            (c)           If a Change of Control occurs, the Borrower shall promptly prepay all outstanding Term Loans of each Term Lender at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal
              amount of such Term Loans plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase.

             

            (d)           All Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions that is not applied or invested (or committed pursuant to a written agreement to be applied or invested) as provided in Section
              10.05(c) within 365 days after receipt of such Net Available Cash (or in the case of any amount committed to be so applied or reinvested, which are not actually so applied or reinvested within 180 days following such 365 day period) will be
              deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds”.  When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10.0 million, the Borrower shall be required to offer to prepay Term Loans in accordance with Section 5.02(e) in an amount equal to the Loan
              First Lien Percentage (determined as of a date selected by the Borrower that is within 10

             

            
              -104-

              
                

            

            days prior to the date on which a Prepayment Option Notice is given to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 5.02(e)) of such Excess Proceeds to prepay the maximum principal amount of the Term
              Loans that may be prepaid out of the Loan First Lien Percentage of such Excess Proceeds (such amount, the “Prepayment Amount”) and such Excess Proceeds so prepaid shall be applied as a mandatory prepayment in accordance with the
              requirements of 5.02(g) and (h).

             

            (e)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in 13.06, within one Business Day of receiving Excess Proceeds in accordance with Section 5.02(d), the Borrower shall give the
              Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Term Lender a notice (each, a “Prepayment Option Notice”) as described below.  As promptly as
              practicable after receiving such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will send to each Term Lender a Prepayment Option Notice, which shall be in the form of Exhibit M, and shall include an offer by the Borrower to prepay on the
              date (each a “Mandatory Prepayment Date”) that is 10 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice, the Loans of such Term Lender by an amount equal to such Term Lender’s pro rata (subject to rounding) portion of the
              Prepayment Amount so indicated in such Term Lender’s Prepayment Option Notice as being applicable to such Term Lender’s Loans.  If such Term Lender would like to reject all or a portion of such prepayment offer, such Term Lender shall execute
              and return such Prepayment Option Notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice indicating its election to so reject such prepayment offer (and any Term Lender which does not execute
              and return such Prepayment Option Notice to the Administrative Agent within such 5 Business Days shall be deemed to have accepted such prepayment offer). On the Mandatory Prepayment Date, (i) the Borrower shall pay to the relevant Term
              Lenders the aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding relevant Term Loans in respect of which such Term Lenders have accepted such prepayment offer as described above, and (ii) the Borrower shall be entitled to
              retain and apply the remaining portion of the Prepayment Amount not accepted by the relevant Term Lenders (the “Unutilized Excess Proceeds”) for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of Indebtedness, or as otherwise
              required or permitted pursuant to its other contractual requirements, subject to the other covenants contained in this Agreement. After giving effect to such offer and prepayment, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

             

            (f)            On each Excess Cash Flow Payment Date after the Effective Date, an amount equal to the Excess Cash Flow Repayment Amount shall be applied as a mandatory repayment in accordance
              with the requirements of Sections 5.02(g) and (h).

             

            (g)            (I) Each amount required to be applied pursuant to Sections 5.02(d) and 5.02(e) shall be applied to repay outstanding Term Loans, on a pro rata basis among the Lenders.

             

            (II)           Each amount required to be applied pursuant to Section 5.02(f) on each Excess Cash Flow Payment Date shall be applied to repay the
              Term Loans, on a pro rata basis among the Lenders in accordance with clause (III) below.

             

            (III)          The amount of each principal repayment of Term Loans pursuant to (A) clause (I) above shall be
                applied to reduce the then remaining Scheduled Term Loan Repayments

             

            
              -105-

              
                

            

            in inverse order of maturity and (B) clause (II) above shall be applied to reduce the remaining Scheduled Term Loan Repayments, after (without duplication) deduction
              for the amount of the Scheduled Term Loan Repayment (without giving effect to any reductions thereof after the Effective Date) due during the applicable Excess Cash Flow Payment Period and actually applied to make such Scheduled Term Loan
              Repayment, to prepay the Term Loans and applied (1) first, to reduce the Scheduled Term Loan Repayment due in the calendar quarter immediately succeeding such Excess Cash Flow Payment Period and (2) thereafter, to the remaining Scheduled Term
              Loan Repayments in inverse order of maturity.

             

            (h)          With respect to each repayment of Loans required by this Section 5.02, the Borrower may designate the Types of Loans of the respective Tranche which are to be repaid and, in the
              case of Eurodollar Loans, the specific Borrowing or Borrowings of the respective Tranche pursuant to which such Eurodollar Loans were made, provided that:  (i) repayments of Eurodollar Loans pursuant to this Section 5.02 may only be
              made on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless all Eurodollar Loans of the respective Tranche with Interest Periods ending on such date of required repayment and all Base Rate Loans of the respective Tranche have been
              paid in full; (ii) if any repayment of Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto,
              such Borrowing shall be automatically converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans; and (iii) each repayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Loans within its applicable Tranche. 
              In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion.

             

            (i)           In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 5.02, (i) all then outstanding Loans shall be repaid in full on the respective Maturity Date for such
              Tranche of Loans, and (ii) unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree in writing, all then outstanding Loans and other Obligations shall be repaid in full on the date on which a Change of Control occurs.

             

            5.03        Method and Place of Payment.  Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement and under any Note shall be made to the Administrative
              Agent for the account of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date when due and shall be made in Dollars in immediately available funds at the Payment Office.  Whenever any payment to be made
              hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable at
              the applicable rate during such extension.

             

            5.04         Net Payments.  (a)  All payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower under any CreditLoan Document will
              be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense.  Except as required by applicable law, all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes with respect to such payments (but excluding, (i), any Tax  imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) , franchise Taxes and branch profits Taxes that are imposed on a Lender or other Recipient  pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or

                  under, received payments under, received or perfected a security interest under, engaged in any other transaction pursuant to or enforced any Credit Document, or sold or assigned an interest in any Loan or Credit Document) (iii) in the case of a Lender, any United States Federal
                  withholding Tax that is imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of the Lender pursuant to a law in effect on the date such Lender becomes a party to or under this Agreement, or such Lender changes its lending office (except for
                  an assignment or change in lending office as a result of a request from the Borrower), except in each case to the extent that, pursuant to Section 5.04, amounts with respect to such Taxes were either payable to such Lender’s assignor
                  immediately before such Lender became a party hereto or to such Lender immediately before it changed its lending office, (iv) any Tax imposed on a Lender or other Recipient that is attributable to such Lender’s or other Recipient’s
                  failure to comply with the relevant requirements set forth in Section 5.04(b), and (v) any United States Federal withholding Tax imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474
                  of the Code, as of the date of this Agreement, any regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreements

                  with the implementation of such sections of the Code (such requirements referred to, collectively, as “FATCA”) (all such excluded Taxes in clauses (i) – (v) being referred to, collectively, as “Excluded Taxes”)) (all such non-Excluded
                  Taxes being “Indemnified Taxes”).  Ifif any Indemnified Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrower
              agrees to pay the full amount of such Indemnified Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under the CreditLoan Documents, after withholding or
              deduction for or on account of any Indemnified Taxes (including such deduction and withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 5.04), will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such CreditLoan Document as if such Indemnified Taxes had not been levied or imposed.

                legally required to file such returns and/or pay such Indemnified Taxes and was reasonably informed by the Borrower about such requirements and had all information necessary to file such returns and/or pay such Indemnified Taxes).  For purposes of this Section 5.04(a), Indemnified Taxes shall include Other Taxes.

              penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto in connection with any CreditLoan Document, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith.

            SECTION 7.          Conditions Precedent to All Credit Events.

             

            The obligation of each Lender to make Loans (including without limitation, the Loans contemplated to be made on the Effective Date) and the obligation of each Issuing Lender to issue, amend or extend Letters of Credit, is subject, at the time of each such Credit Event (except as hereinafter indicated),
              to the Effective Date having occurred and to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

             

            7.01         No Default; Representations and Warranties.  At the time of each such Credit Event and also after giving effect thereto (i) there shall exist no Default or Event of
              Default and (ii) all representations and warranties contained herein and in the other CreditLoan Documents shall be true and
              correct in all material respects with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on the date of such Credit Event (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made
              as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects only as of such specified date).

             

            7.02          Notice of Borrowing; Letter of Credit Request.  (a)  Prior to the making of each Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have received a Notice of Borrowing meeting the
              requirements of Section 2.03(a).

             

            (b)            Prior to the issuance, amendment or extension of each
              Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent and the respective Issuing Lender shall have received a Letter of Credit Request meeting the requirements of Section 3.03(a).

             

            The occurrence of the Effective Date and the acceptance of the benefits of each Credit Event shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and
              each of the Lenders that all the conditions specified in this Section 7 and applicable to such Credit Event are satisfied as of that time.  All of the documents and papers referred to in this Section 7 shall be in form and substance
              reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders and, unless otherwise specified, shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office for the account of each of the Lenders.

             

            7.03        No Excess Cash.  The obligation of each Lender to make Revolving Loans shall be subject to the satisfaction of the condition that the Borrower shall have delivered to the
              Administrative Agent together with the relevant Notice of Borrowing, a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower certifying (x) in detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as to the use of the proceeds of such
              Borrowing, and (y) that as of the date of such requested Borrowing, the aggregate amount of Unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents owned or held by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Domestic Subsidiaries), determined
              after giving pro forma effect to such Borrowing and the application of proceeds therefrom, including without limitation, any such application to outstanding interest and amortization payments on the Loans (which application
              shall be made within two Business Days of the date of such Borrowing and the proceeds thereof applied in a manner consistent with the foregoing certifications) and from any other Unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents then held or owned by
              the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Domestic Subsidiaries) (to the extent such proceeds and/or other Unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents are to be utilized by the

             

            
              -117-

              
                

            

            Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Domestic Subsidiaries) within two Business Days of such date for a permitted purpose under this Agreement other than an Investment in Unrestricted cash and
              Cash Equivalents or in a Subsidiary of the Borrower), shall not exceed $20,000,000.

             

            7.04         No Pulitzer Financial Covenant Default.  The obligation of each Lender to make Revolving Loans shall be subject to the satisfaction of the condition that there shall
              exist no Pulitzer Financial Covenant Default.

             

            SECTION 8.          Representations, Warranties and Agreements. 

             

            

            In order to induce the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders to enter
              into this Agreement and to make the Loans, and issue (or participate in) the Letters of Credit as provided herein, the Borrower makes the following representations, warranties and agreements, in each case after giving effect to the Effective
              Date, all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes and the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit, with the occurrence of the Effective Date and the occurrence of each Credit
              Event on or after the Effective Date being deemed to constitute a representation and warranty that the matters specified in this Section 8 are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date and on the date of each
              such other Credit Event (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects only as of such specified date).

             

            8.01         Company Status.  Each of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries (i) is a duly organized and validly existing Company in good standing under the laws of the
              jurisdiction of its organization, (ii) has the Company power and authority to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and presently proposes to engage and (iii) is duly qualified and is authorized to do
              business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualifications except for failures to be so qualified or authorized which, either
              individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

             

            8.02         Power and Authority.  Each Credit Party has the Company power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of each of the CreditLoan Documents to which it is party and has taken all necessary Company action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of each of such CreditLoan Documents. 
              Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each of the CreditLoan Documents to which it is party, and each of such CreditLoan Documents constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be
              limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

             

            8.03          No Violation.  Neither the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of the CreditLoan Documents, the
              Tax Sharing Agreements to which it is a party, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions thereof, (i) contravenes any provision of any law,

             

            
              -118-

              
                

            

            statute, rule or regulation or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality, (ii) conflicts with or results in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or
              provisions of, or constitutes a default under, or results in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except (x) pursuant to the Security Documents and (y) the Liens permitted under this Agreement and
              described in clauses (1), (35) and (36) of the definition of Permitted Liens)) upon any of the property or assets of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit
              agreement or loan agreement, or any other material agreement, contract or instrument, in each case to which any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any its property or assets is bound or to which it may be
              subject, or (iii) violates any provision of the certificate or articles of incorporation, certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement or by-laws (or equivalent organizational documents), as applicable, of any Credit Party or
              any of its Subsidiaries.

             

            8.04         Approvals.  All necessary governmental (domestic and foreign) and material third party approvals and/or consents in connection with this Agreement and the other
              transactions contemplated hereby and by the other CreditLoan Documents shall have been obtained and remain in effect, and all applicable waiting periods with respect thereto shall have
              expired without any action being taken by any competent authority which restrains, prevents or imposes materially adverse conditions upon the consummation of this Agreement or the other transactions contemplated hereby and by the other CreditLoan Documents or otherwise referred to herein or therein.  No order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with
              (except for those that have otherwise been obtained or made on or prior to the Effective Date and which remain in full force and effect on the Effective Date and for the filings for perfection or recordation of the Liens under the CreditLoan Documents set forth in Section 8.11), or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to be obtained or made by, or
              on behalf of, any Credit Party to authorize, or is required to be obtained or made by, or on behalf of, any Credit Party in connection with, (i) the execution, delivery and performance of any CreditLoan Document or
              (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any such CreditLoan Document.

             

            8.05         Financial Statements; Financial Condition; Undisclosed Liabilities; Projections.  (a)  The consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at September
              29, 2013 and September 30, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income and cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the Borrower’s respective fiscal year ended on each such date, in
              each case furnished to the Lenders prior to the Effective Date, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at the dates of said financial statements and the consolidated
              results of their operations for the periods covered thereby.  The consolidated balance sheets of Pulitzer and its Subsidiaries at September 29, 2013 and September 30, 2012 and the related consolidated statements of income and cash flows and
              changes in shareholders’ equity of Pulitzer and its Subsidiaries for Pulitzer’s fiscal year ended on each such date, furnished to the Lenders prior to the Effective Date, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial
              condition of Pulitzer and its Subsidiaries at the date of said financial statements and the consolidated results of their operations for the periods covered thereby.  All such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP
              consistently applied except to the extent provided in the notes to said

             

            
              -119-

              
                

            

            financial statements and subject, in the case of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and Pulitzer, to normal year-end audit adjustments (all of which are of a recurring
              nature and none of which, individually or in the aggregate, would be material) and the absence of footnotes.

             

            (b)           On and as of the Effective Date, and after giving effect to all Indebtedness (including the Loans) being incurred or assumed and Liens created by the Credit Parties in
              connection therewith, (i) the sum of the assets, at a fair valuation, of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) will exceed its or their respective debts, (ii) the Borrower (on a
              stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) has or have not incurred and does or do not intend to incur, and does or do not believe that it or they will incur, debts beyond its or their respective ability to
              pay such debts as such debts mature, and (iii) the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) will have sufficient capital with which to conduct its or their respective businesses.  For purposes
              of this Section 8.05(b), “debt” means any liability on a claim, and “claim” means (a) right to payment, whether or not such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured,
              disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured, or unsecured or (b) right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment,
              fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured.  The amount of contingent liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time,
              represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.

             

            (c)            Except as fully disclosed in the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 8.05(a) and for the Indebtedness incurred under this Agreement, the Pulitzer Debt Documents,
              the First Lien Notes Documents and the Second Lien Loan Documents, there were as of the Effective Date no liabilities or obligations with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any nature whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued,
              contingent or otherwise and whether or not due) which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to be material to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.  As of the Effective Date, the Borrower knows
              of no basis for the assertion against it or any of its Subsidiaries of any liability or obligation of any nature whatsoever that is not fully disclosed in the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 8.05(a) or referred to in the
              immediately preceding sentence which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

             

            (d)           The Projections delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders prior to the Effective Date have been prepared in good faith and are based on reasonable assumptions, and
              there are no statements or conclusions in the Projections which are based upon or include information known to the Borrower to be misleading in any material respect or which fail to take into account material information known to the Borrower
              regarding the matters reported therein.  On the Effective Date, the Borrower believes that the Projections are reasonable and attainable, it being recognized by the Lenders, however, that projections as to future events are not to be viewed
              as facts and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by the Projections may differ from the projected results.

             

            
              -120-

              
                

            

            (e)            Since September 29, 2013, nothing has occurred that has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

             

            8.06         Litigation.  Except as set forth in Schedule IX (it being understood that disclosure on Schedule IX is not a representation that a matter to which the disclosure relates
              is expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), there are no actions, suits, proceedings or governmental investigations pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened with respect to any CreditLoan Document or otherwise that have had, or could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

             

            8.07       True and Complete Disclosure.  All factual information (taken as a whole) theretofore furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent or
              any Lender for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, the other CreditLoan Documents or any transaction contemplated herein or therein is true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of
              which such information is dated or certified and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to make such information (taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect at such time in light of the circumstances under which
              such information was provided, it being understood and agreed that for purposes of this Section 8.07, such factual information shall not include the Projections or
                any pro forma financial information.

             

            8.08        Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.  (a)  All proceeds of the Revolving Loans shall be used for the working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its
              Subsidiaries. All proceeds of the Term Loans shall be used by the Borrower (i) to repay Indebtedness outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and the Existing Second Lien Credit Agreement and (ii) pay fees and expenses in connection
              therewith.

             

            (b)          No part of any Credit Event (or the proceeds thereof) will be used to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin
              Stock.  Neither the making of any Loan nor the use of the proceeds thereof nor the occurrence of any other Credit Event will violate or be inconsistent with (x) the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal
              Reserve System or (y) Section 8.238.24.

             

            (c)            The Borrower shall not use, and shall procure that its Subsidiaries and its or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use,
                    the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit, (a) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption
                    Laws, (b) to fund, finance or facilitate any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, to the extent such activities, businesses or transaction would be prohibited by Sanctions
                    if conducted by a corporation incorporated in the United States or (c) in any manner that would result in violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.

             

            8.09          Tax Returns and Payments.  Each of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be timely filed (in each case giving effect to all applicable
              and permitted extensions) with the appropriate taxing authority all Federal and other material

             

            
              -121-

              
                

            

            returns, statements, forms and reports for taxes (the “Returns”) required to be filed by, or with respect to the income, properties or operations of, the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries.  The Returns accurately reflect in all material respects all
              liability for taxes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, for the periods covered thereby.  Each of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has paid all taxes and assessments payable by it which have become due, other than
              those that are immaterial and those that are being contested in good faith and adequately disclosed and fully provided for on the financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP.  There is no material action,
              suit, proceeding, investigation, audit or claim now pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened by any authority regarding any material taxes relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.  Neither the Borrower nor any of
              its Subsidiaries has incurred, nor will any of them incur, any material tax liability in connection with transactions contemplated in this Agreement, the Second Lien Credit Agreement, the First Lien Notes Indenture or the Pulitzer Debt
              Agreement (it being understood that the representation contained in this sentence does not cover any future tax liabilities of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries arising as a result of the operation of their businesses in the ordinary
              course of business).

             

            8.10         Compliance with ERISA.  (a) Schedule IV sets forth each Plan as of the Effective Date. Except as disclosed on Schedule IV or otherwise as could not, either individually

              discretion) after such action is required to be taken or requested to be taken by the Administrative Agent; provided that, in no event will the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries be required to take any action, other than using its
              commercially reasonable efforts, to obtain consents from third parties with respect to its compliance with this Section 9.12.

             

            (f)            The Borrower agrees that, to the extent that it is unable to deliver to the Collateral Agent on or prior to the Effective Date any of the documents described in Section 6.10,
              the Borrower shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to deliver to the Collateral Agent such documents as soon as commercially reasonable and in any event no later than 90 calendar days after the Effective Date or such other later date
              as the Collateral Agent may reasonably agree.

            9.14         Foreign Subsidiaries.  Neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have any Foreign Subsidiaries other than Subsidiaries that, if such Subsidiaries were
              Domestic Subsidiaries, would be Immaterial Subsidiaries.

              thereof on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the Borrower would be no greater than 5.00 to 1.00.

              manner that complies with this Section 10.01 and will only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness once; provided that all Indebtedness outstanding on the Effective Date under this Agreement, the Second Lien

            (v)           Indebtedness permitted by this Section 10.01 need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness but may be permitted in
              part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 10.01 permitting such Indebtedness;

             

            (vi)          the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof

              shall mean, when referencing any party, the party that is directly responsible for making principal and interest payments for the relevant outstanding Payment Obligation.

              the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Equity or Disqualified Stock and the payment of any premiums, fees, costs, expenses or charges, in each case, will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for
              purposes of this Section 10.01.  Unless otherwise expressly provided for herein, for all purposes under the this Agreement, the amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be (i) in the case of Disqualified Stock or Preferred

              means of a Lien on any asset or property of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (and not to their other assets or properties generally), the lesser of (x) the Fair Market Value of such asset or property on the date on which such
              Indebtedness is Incurred and (y) the amount of the Indebtedness so secured.

             

            (e)         In addition, the Borrower will not permit any of its Unrestricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Indebtedness or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock, other than Non-Recourse Debt. 
              If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be
              Incurred as of such date under this Section 10.01, the Borrower shall be in Default under Section 11.03).

             

            (f)            For purposes of determining compliance with any Dollar denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the Dollar equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness
              denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit
              Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such Refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar denominated restriction to be exceeded if
              calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Dollar denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does
              not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced plus the amount of any reasonable premium (including reasonable tender premiums), defeasance costs and any reasonable fees and expenses Incurred in connection

             

            
              -148-

              
                

            

            with the issuance of such new Indebtedness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10.01, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to
              this Section 10.01 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different
              currency from the Indebtedness being Refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness and Indebtedness being Refinanced are denominated that is in effect
              on the date of such Refinancing.

             

            10.02       Limitation on Restricted Payments.  (a)  The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to:

             

            (i)          declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution (whether made in cash, securities or other property) on or in respect of its or any of its Restricted
              Subsidiary’s Capital Stock (including any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) other than:

             

            A.             dividends or distributions payable solely in Capital Stock of the Borrower (other than Disqualified Stock) or in options, warrants or other rights to
              purchase Capital Stock of the Borrower (other than Disqualified Stock); and

             

            B.             dividends or distributions by a Restricted Subsidiary payable to the Borrower or another Restricted Subsidiary (and if such Restricted Subsidiary is not a
              Wholly Owned Subsidiary, to its other holders of its Capital Stock on a pro rata basis (taking into account the relative preferences, if any, of the various classes or series of Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary) or on a basis that
              results in the receipt by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary of dividends or distributions of a greater value than it would receive on a pro rata basis);

             

            (ii)           purchase, redeem, retire or otherwise acquire for value any Capital Stock of the Borrower held by Persons other than the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary
              (other than in exchange for Capital Stock of the Borrower (other than Disqualified Stock));

             

            (iii)         make any principal payment on, or purchase, repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, in each case, prior to any scheduled
              maturity, scheduled repayment or scheduled sinking fund payment, any Subordinated Obligations, Guarantor Subordinated Obligations or Junior Lien Indebtedness (other than (x) Indebtedness of the Borrower owing to and held by any Restricted
              Subsidiary or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary owing to and held by the Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary permitted under Section 10.01(b)(iv) (provided, in each case referred to in this clause (x), that, until the
              Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date and for so long as the Second Lien Term Loans are outstanding and the Second Lien Loan Documents (or any agreement or instrument governing any outstanding Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term
              Loans) include provisions requiring that any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities must be applied (or, at the option of the lenders, must be applied), or that the Pulitzer Entities must use best, reasonable best or commercially reasonable

              flow may be applied to pay principal of or interest on the Term Loans or any other Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness (it being understood that no Indebtedness under the Second Lien Loan Documents (or any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the
              Second Lien Term Loans) will be deemed to include provisions to the foregoing effect solely by virtue of Liens on Lee Collateral, Pulitzer Collateral or other collateral, guarantees, maturity or structural subordination), neither the Borrower
              nor any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Pulitzer Entity shall make any principal payment on, or purchase, repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Subordinated Obligation, Guarantor Subordinated Obligation
              or Junior Lien Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Pulitzer Entity owing to or held by any Pulitzer Entity, except that the amount of any Subordinated Obligation or Guarantor Subordinated Obligation owing
              to or held by any Pulitzer Entity may be adjusted to the extent of (i) any increase of such Subordinated Obligation or Guarantor Subordinated Obligation as the result of any cost or expense of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is
              not a Pulitzer Entity (including, without limitation, any amounts due and payable by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Pulitzer Entity under a tax sharing or similar agreement or any portion of the Borrower’s corporate
              overhead expenses or intercompany expenses, in each case attributable or allocated to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Pulitzer Entity) that was paid or made in cash by any Pulitzer Entity from cash flows (including Net
              Available Cash from any Asset Disposition of any assets or properties of Pulitzer Entity to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement and any other documents governing any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries)
              originally generated or received (other than directly or indirectly received from the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Pulitzer Entity) by the Pulitzer Entities, and any subsequent reduction in such Subordinated Obligations
              or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations as a result of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Pulitzer Entity reimbursing in cash or crediting any Pulitzer Entity for the amount of any such payment made by such Pulitzer Entity;
              provided, further that any such amounts were ordinarily settled through intercompany charges prior to the Effective Date or (ii) any other decrease of such Subordinated Obligation or Guarantor Subordinated Obligation to the
              extent the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Pulitzer Entity is permitted to make payments on behalf of the Pulitzer Entities in accordance with Section 10.11) and (y) any principal payment, purchase, repurchase, redemption,
              defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of such Subordinated Obligations, Guarantor Subordinated Obligations or Junior Lien Indebtedness, as the case may be, in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment
              or final maturity, in each case due within one year of the date of principal payment, purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or acquisition or retirement);

             

            (iv)         until the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date and for so long as the Second Lien Term Loans are outstanding and the Second Lien Loan Documents (or any agreement or
              instrument governing any outstanding Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) include provisions requiring that any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities must

              Pulitzer Entities, to repay borrowings under the Second Lien Loan Documents (or any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) before such cash flow may be applied to pay principal of or interest on the Term Loans or any
              other Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness (it being understood that no Indebtedness under the Second Lien Loan Documents (or any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) will be deemed to include provisions to the foregoing
              effect solely by virtue of Liens on Lee Collateral, Pulitzer Collateral or other collateral, guarantees, maturity or structural subordination), make any principal, premium or interest payment on, or purchase, repurchase, redeem, defease or

              any assets or properties of Pulitzer Entities to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement and any other documents governing any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) originally generated or received (other than
              directly or indirectly received from the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Pulitzer Entity) by the Pulitzer Entities); or

             

            (v)            make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions referred to in clauses (i) through (v) (other than any exception thereto) shall be
              referred to as a “Restricted Payment”), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment:

             

            A.             no Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or would result therefrom);

             

            B.             immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Lee First Lien Leverage Ratio for the Borrower would be no greater
              than 3.25 to 1.00; and

             

            C.             the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments declared or made subsequent to the Effective Date (excluding Restricted
              Payments made pursuant to Sections 10.02(b)(i), (ii), (iii), (vi), (vii), (ix), (x), (xi), (xii), (xiii), (xiv), (xv) and (xviii)) would not exceed the sum of, without duplication:

                        Net Cash Proceeds received from an issuance or sale of such Capital Stock to a Subsidiary of the Borrower or to an employee stock ownership plan or similar trust to the extent such sale to an employee stock ownership plan or
                          similar trust is financed by loans from or Guaranteed by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary unless such loans have been repaid with cash on or prior to the date of determination; and

              or prior to the date of determination); provided, however, that the Net Cash Proceeds from such sale of Capital Stock or capital contribution (to the extent used to make such Restricted Payment) will be excluded from Section
              10.02(a)(v)(C)(2);

              estates, executors, administrators, family members, spouses, former spouses, domestic partners, former domestic partners or heirs, in each case in connection with the repurchase provisions under employee stock option, stock purchase or other
              equity incentive plans or agreements or other compensatory agreements approved by the Board of Directors of the Borrower; provided that such purchases, repurchases, redemptions, acquisitions, cancellations or retirements pursuant to
              this clause will not exceed $5.0 million in the aggregate during any fiscal year, although such amount in any fiscal year (with any unused amounts in any year being available in succeeding years) may be increased by an amount not to exceed:

             

            A.           the Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Borrower to future, present or former employees, members of

              or heirs that occurs after the Effective Date, to the extent the cash proceeds from the sale of such Capital Stock have not otherwise been applied to the payment

             

            
              -154-

            B.             the cash proceeds of key man life insurance policies received by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries after the Effective Date; less

              by any future, present or former employee, director, officer, member of management or consultant or their assigns, estates, executors, administrators, family members, spouses, former spouses, domestic partners, former domestic partners or
              heirs (for purposes of clarity, it is understood and agreed that any cash received by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as payment of all or any portion of such exercise, conversion or exchange price shall be included in
              Section 10.02(a)(v)(C)(2));

            (x)          the purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance, acquisition or retirement of (a) Junior Lien Indebtedness with any Net Available Cash from any Asset

              5.02(e);

             

            (xi)          other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount, which, when taken together with all other Restricted Payments made pursuant to this clause (xi) (as reduced
              by the amount of capital returned from any such Restricted Payments that constituted Restricted Investments in the form of cash and Cash Equivalents (exclusive of amounts included in Section 10.02(a)(v)(C)(4))) not to exceed the greater of
              $15.0 million and 1.85% of Consolidated Total Assets;

             

            
              -155-

              
                

            

            (xii)          the purchase of fractional shares of Capital Stock of the Borrower arising out of stock dividends, splits or combinations or mergers, consolidations or other
              acquisitions;

             

            (xiii)        in connection with any acquisition by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the receipt or acceptance of the return to the Borrower or any of its
              Subsidiaries of Capital Stock of the Borrower or Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries constituting a portion of the purchase price consideration in settlement of indemnification claims or as a result of a purchase price
              adjustment (including earn outs or similar obligations);

             

            (xiv)        the distribution of rights pursuant to any shareholder rights plan, the issuance or distribution of Capital Stock or other securities upon the exercise of such
              rights or the redemption of such rights for nominal consideration in accordance with the terms of any shareholder rights plan;

             

            (xv)          payments or distributions to stockholders pursuant to appraisal rights required under applicable law in connection with any merger, consolidation or other

            (xvi)       the purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance, acquisition or retirement of (a) Junior Lien Indebtedness and (b) other Indebtedness that, solely in the case
              of other Indebtedness referred to in this clause (b), is secured by Liens on any properties or assets of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that are expressly junior in priority to the Liens on such property or assets securing
              the Obligations pursuant to the Junior Intercreditor Agreement, the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor agreement (as applicable); provided that after giving effect to any such purchase, repurchase,
              redemption, acquisition or retirement on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would be no greater than 3.00 to 1.00;

             

            (xvii)      (a) the distribution, by dividend or otherwise, of shares of Capital Stock of Unrestricted Subsidiaries (other than Unrestricted Subsidiaries the primary assets
              of which are cash and/or Cash Equivalents) and (b) Restricted Payments in the form of Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of $15.0 million and 1.85% of Consolidated Total Assets;

             

            (xviii)      Restricted Payments that are made with Excluded Contributions; and

             

            (xix)        any repayment of Junior Lien Indebtedness under the Second Lien Loan Agreement (or the distribution of such amounts to the Borrower by the Pulitzer Entities in
              connection therewith) to the extent such repayment is required to be made with Pulitzer Excess Cash Flow (as such term is defined in the Second Lien Loan Agreement as in effect on the Effective Date (or as thereafter amended or modified in
              accordance with the terms thereof and hereof)).

             

            
              -156-

              
                

            

            provided, however, that at the time of and after giving effect to any Restricted Payment permitted under (A) Section 10.02(b)(vi), (x), (xi) or (xvi) no Default shall have occurred and be
              continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof and (B) Section 10.02(xix) no Default under Section 11.01, no Default under, and as defined in, the First Lien Notes Indenture or no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or
              would occur as a consequence thereof.

             

            (c)          The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of such Restricted Payment of the assets or securities proposed to be paid,
              transferred or issued by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. The Fair Market Value of any cash Restricted Payment shall be its face amount and the amount of any non-cash
              Restricted Payment shall be determined conclusively in Good Faith by the Borrower.

             

            (d)          For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 10.02, in the event that a proposed Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the
              categories of Restricted Payments described in Section 10.02(b)(i) through (xix) above or one or more of the clauses within the definition of Permitted Investment, or is entitled to be made pursuant to Section 10.02(a), the Borrower will be
              entitled to divide and classify such Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) on the date of its payment in any manner that complies with Section 10.02 (including, without limitation, by dividing such Restricted Payment among Section 10.02(a),
              one or more clauses of Section 10.02(b) and/or one or more of the clauses of the definition of Permitted Investment).

             

            (e)          If the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary makes a Restricted Investment or a Permitted Investment and the Person in which such Investment was made subsequently becomes a
              Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent such Investment resulted in a reduction of the amounts calculated under Section 10.02(a) or any other provision of this Section 10.02 or the definition of Permitted Investment (which was not subsequently
              reversed), then such reduction shall be equal to the amount of such Investment.

             

            (f)           As of the Effective Date, all of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries will be Restricted Subsidiaries. The Borrower will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted
              Subsidiary except pursuant to the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries
              (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an amount determined as set forth in the definition of “Investment.” Such designation will be permitted only if a Restricted Payment in
              such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to any of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Agreement.

             

            10.03      Limitation on Liens.  The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, Incur or assume any Lien that secures any Indebtedness on
              any asset or property of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary or any income or profits therefrom, other than (a) Permitted Liens and (b) Liens securing Indebtedness that are expressly junior in priority to the Liens on such property or
              assets securing the Obligations pursuant to the Junior

             

            
              -157-

              
                

            

            Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In addition, if, after the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction
              Date, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall create, Incur or assume any Lien on any property or asset of the Borrower or any such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, securing Pulitzer First Lien Indebtedness, the Borrower or
              such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, must concurrently grant a second-priority Lien (which shall be a first-priority Lien in the event the Second Lien Term Loans and any other Pulitzer First Lien Indebtedness is no longer
              outstanding), subject to Permitted Liens, upon such property or asset as security for the Loans and the Subsidiary Guarantees pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Security Documents, the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement, the
              Pulitzer Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor agreement.

             

            10.04       Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions From Restricted Subsidiaries.  (a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or
              otherwise cause or permit to exist any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

             

            (i)            (A) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or (B) pay any Indebtedness or
              other obligations payable in cash that are owed to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Equity in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating
              distributions being paid on Common Stock or any other class or series of Preferred Stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock);

             

            (ii)           make any loans or advances to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of loans or advances made to the Borrower
              or any Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or

             

            (iii)           sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that such transfers shall not
              include any type of transfer described in clause (i) or (ii) above).

              

            

            (b)            The provisions of Section 10.04(a) will not prohibit encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

             

            (i)          any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to an agreement in effect at or entered into on the Effective Date, including, without limitation, the CreditLoan Documents, the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement,
              the Junior Intercreditor Agreement, the Second Lien Loan Documents, the First Lien Notes Documents and the Pulitzer Debt Documents as in effect on such date, and any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor
              Agreement and the Pulitzer Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement on the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date (provided that the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement and the Pulitzer Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement are entered into
              substantially in the form thereof attached hereto as Exhibit L-1 and L-2, respectively,

             

            
              -158-

              
                

            

            on the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date or such other form that is not materially less favorable to the Lenders than the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-1 and L-2, respectively, on the
              Effective Date));

             

            (ii)          any encumbrance or restriction with respect to a Person or assets pursuant to an agreement in effect on or before the date on which such Person became a
              Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by, merged into or consolidated with the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Capital Stock or Indebtedness Incurred as consideration for, or to provide all or any portion of the funds or
              credit support utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by, merged into or consolidated with the Borrower or in contemplation of the
              transaction) or such assets were acquired by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided that any such encumbrance or restriction shall not extend to any Person or the assets or property of the Borrower or any other Restricted
              Subsidiary other than the Person and its Subsidiaries or the assets and property so acquired (and any proceeds thereof or accessions, improvements or additions thereto);

             

            (iii)         any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to an agreement effecting a Refinancing of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to an agreement referred to in the preceding
              clause (i) or (ii) or this clause (iii) or contained in any amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, refunding, replacement or Refinancing of an agreement referred to in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) or this clause (iii);
              provided, however, that the encumbrances and restrictions with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary contained in any such agreement effecting such Refinancing or contained in such agreement immediately after giving effect to
              any such amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, refunding, replacement or Refinancing, as the case may be, are not materially less favorable (as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower), taken as a whole, to the Lenders
              than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in such predecessor agreement or contained in such agreement immediately prior to any such amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, refunding, replacement or Refinancing, as
              the case may be;

             

            (iv)          any encumbrances or restrictions (a) arising in connection with Liens permitted under the provisions of Section 10.03 and (b) (1) that restrict in a customary
              manner the subletting, sublicensing, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that is subject to a lease, sublease, license or similar contract, or the assignment, sublicense or transfer of any such lease, sublease, license or other
              contract, (2) are contained in mortgages, pledges or other security agreements permitted under this Agreement securing Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent such encumbrance or restrictions restrict the
              transfer of the property subject to such mortgages, pledges or other security agreements or (3) pursuant to customary provisions restricting dispositions of real property interests set forth in any reciprocal easement agreements of the
              Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary;

             

            (v)            Purchase Money Indebtedness and Capitalized Lease Obligations permitted under this Agreement, in each case, that impose encumbrances or restrictions on the

             

            
              -159-

              
                

            

            property so acquired (and any proceeds thereof or accessions, improvements or additions thereto);

             

            (vi)          contracts for the sale of assets, including customary restrictions with respect to a Subsidiary of the Borrower pursuant to an agreement that has been entered
              into for the sale of all or a portion of the Capital Stock or assets of such Subsidiary;

             

            (vii)         restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth requirements imposed by customers or lessors or required by insurance, surety or bonding companies under
              contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

             

            (viii)        any customary provisions in joint venture agreements, partnership agreements, limited liability company agreements, sale leaseback agreements and other
              similar agreements and/or governance documents entered into in the ordinary course of business, provided that if such joint venture, partnership, limited liability company or other similar entity is a Restricted Subsidiary, such
              provisions will not materially adversely affect (as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower) the Borrower’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Loans;

             

            (ix)          any customary provisions in leases, subleases or licenses and other agreements entered into by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary
              course of business;

             

            (x)            encumbrances or restrictions arising or existing by reason of applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation, order, permit or grant;

             

            (xi)          encumbrances or restrictions contained in or arising under indentures or debt instruments or other agreements governing or evidencing Indebtedness Incurred or
              entered into or Preferred Equity issued by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with and subject to Section 10.01; provided that such encumbrances and restrictions contained in any agreement or instrument will not
              materially affect the Borrower’s ability to make principal or interest payments pursuant to this Agreement (as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower);

             

            (xii)         under any contract, instrument or agreement relating to Indebtedness of any Foreign Subsidiary which imposes restrictions solely on such Foreign Subsidiary
              and its Subsidiaries;

             

            (xiii         encumbrances or restrictions arising in connection with Hedging Obligations; and

             

            (xiv)       encumbrances or restrictions imposed by amendments, modifications, restatements, amendments and restatements, extensions, restructurings, renewals, increases, supplements,
              refundings, replacements or other Refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (i) through (xiii) above; provided, that without duplication of any provisions in clauses (i) through (xiii) above,
              immediately after giving effect to any such

             

            
              -160-

              
                

            

            amendment, modification, restatement, amendment and restatement, extension, restructuring, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or other Refinancing, as the case may be, the applicable
              contract, instrument or other obligation, as the case may be, is, as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower, not materially more restrictive with respect to such encumbrance and other restriction, taken as a whole, than those prior to such
              amendment, modification, restatement, amendment and restatement, extension, restructuring, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or other Refinancing.

             

            10.05       Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock.  (a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any Asset Disposition
              following the Effective Date unless:

             

            (i)          the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at least equal to the Fair Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be
              determined, at the option of the Borrower, as of the date a letter of intent for such Asset Disposition is entered into, as of the date of such Asset Disposition or as of the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition) of the
              assets subject to such Asset Disposition; and

             

            (ii)           at least 75% of the consideration from such Asset Disposition received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of
              cash or Cash Equivalents.

             

            (b)           The Borrower shall determine the Fair Market Value of any consideration from such Asset Disposition that is not cash or Cash Equivalents.

             

            (c)            Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, any Net Available Cash received by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary from any Asset Disposition shall be applied
              at the Borrower’s election for one or more of the following purposes:

             

            (i)            in the case of any Asset Disposition by a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary or consisting of Capital Stock of a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, to repay Indebtedness of a
              Non-Guarantor Subsidiary;

             

            (ii)            to the extent of any Net Available Cash from any Asset Disposition of assets of any Pulitzer Entity, to repay Indebtedness (or interest or premium thereon)
              under the Second Lien Loan Documents;

             

            (iii)         to reinvest in or acquire assets (including Capital Stock or other securities acquired in connection with the acquisition of Capital Stock or property of
              another Person that is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower or that would constitute a Permitted Investment under clause (2) of the definition thereof) used or useful in a Related Business; provided that to the extent
              the assets subject to such Asset Disposition were Lee Collateral or Pulitzer Collateral, such newly acquired assets (other than Excluded Property) shall also be Lee Collateral or Pulitzer Collateral, respectively, in each case as required by
              the terms and provisions of the Security Documents;

             

            
              -161-

              
                

            

            (iv)         to repay, prepay, purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire Priority Payment Lien Obligations (and, if the Priority Payment Lien Obligations so repaid, prepaid,
              purchased, redeemed or acquired, is under a revolving credit facility, effect a permanent reduction in the availability thereunder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Priority Payment Lien Obligations under such revolving
              credit facility so repaid, prepaid, purchased, redeemed or acquired) and Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness (including, without limitation, the Term Loans); provided that if the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall so reduce Pari
              Passu Lien Indebtedness other than Term Loans (any Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness other than the Term Loans being hereinafter referred to as “Other Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness”), the Borrower will use or, pursuant to the procedures set
              forth in Section 5.02(e), offer to use a portion of such Net Available Cash to prepay the outstanding  principal amount of the Term Loans by an amount (the “Loan Reduction Amount”) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (1) the
              aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to the time (the “Reduction Time”) of such reduction of Other Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness by (2) a fraction (x) the numerator of which is the aggregate
              principal amount of such reduction in Other Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness and (y) the denominator of which is the aggregate principal amount of all Other Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness outstanding immediately prior to such Reduction Time (it
              being understood that, upon the completion of any such offer to prepay Term Loans in compliance with this subclause (iv), then, even if the aggregate principal amount Term Loans prepaid pursuant to such offer is less than the aggregate
              principal amount of Term Loans that the Borrower shall have offered to prepay, the Borrower shall be under no further obligation to prepay or offer to prepay any Term Loans pursuant to this subclause (iv); provided that any Net
              Available Cash not applied pursuant to this subclause (iv) shall constitute Excess Proceeds, which shall be applied in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 10.05);

             

            provided that, so long as (1) the Second Lien Loan Documents include provisions requiring that proceeds of Asset Dispositions of assets of Pulitzer Entities shall be used to repay the Pulitzer Debt,
              invested in or used to acquire assets (including Capital Stock or other securities acquired in connection with the acquisition of Capital Stock or property of another Person that is or becomes a Pulitzer Entity or that constitutes an
              Investment by a Pulitzer Entity) used or useful in a Related Business or pay or prepay Indebtedness outstanding under the Second Lien Loan Documents or interest or premium thereon (it being understood that the Second Lien Term Loans (or any
              Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) will not be deemed to include provisions to the foregoing effect solely by virtue of Liens on Lee Collateral, Pulitzer Collateral or other collateral, Guarantees, maturity or
              structural subordination) and (2) the Borrower elects to apply any Net Available Cash pursuant to subclause (ii) or (iv), such Net Available Cash shall be applied pursuant to subclause (ii), to the extent of any such Net Available Cash from
              any Asset Disposition of assets of any Pulitzer Entity, and subclause (iv), to the extent of any such Net Available Cash from any Asset Disposition of assets of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Pulitzer
              Entities).

             

            (d)           [Reserved];

            (e)          For the purposes of this Section 10.05, the following are deemed to be cash: (x) the assumption of Indebtedness or other liabilities of the Borrower (other than Disqualified
              Stock or Subordinated Obligations) or Indebtedness or other liabilities of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than Guarantor Subordinated Obligations or Disqualified Stock of any Subsidiary Guarantor) and the release of the Borrower or such
              Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on such Indebtedness or liabilities in connection with such Asset Disposition, (y) securities, notes or similar obligations received by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee
              that are converted within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Disposition by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, and (z) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Borrower or any of its Restricted
              Subsidiaries in such Asset Disposition having an aggregate Fair Market Value (determined in Good Faith by the Borrower), taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (z) that is at that time
              outstanding, not to exceed the greater of $20.0 million and 2.5% of Consolidated Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration
              being determined in Good Faith by the Borrower at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value).

             

            (f)           Pending the final application of any such Net Available Cash, the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries may use such Net Available Cash to reduce revolving Indebtedness under
              any Debt Facility (without any requirement to permanently reduce the availability or commitment thereunder) or otherwise invest such Net Available Cash in Cash Equivalents or otherwise use such monies for any other purpose, subject to the
              other provisions contained in this Agreement.

             

            10.06       Limitation on Affiliate Transactions.  (a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into or conduct any transaction
              (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Borrower (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $1.0 million
              per transaction or series of related transactions unless:

             

            (i)            the terms of such Affiliate Transaction, when viewed together with any related Affiliate Transactions, are not materially less favorable to the Borrower or
              such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm’s length dealings with a Person that is not an Affiliate;

             

            (ii)           in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a
              majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Borrower (and such majority determines that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies the criteria in clause (i) above); and

             

            (iii)         in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate consideration in excess of $25.0 million, the Borrower has received a written opinion from an
              Independent Financial Advisor that such Affiliate Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable, or not materially

             

            
              -163-

              
                

            

            less favorable than those that might reasonably have been obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate.

             

            (b)           The provisions of Section 10.06(a) will not apply to:

             

            (i)            Restricted Payments permitted to be made pursuant to Section 10.02 and (ii) Permitted Investments (other than Permitted Investments made pursuant to clause

            (iii)         loans or advances, or Guarantees of third party loans or advances, to Officers, employees, consultants, members of management and directors of the Borrower or
              any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower in the ordinary course of business, in an aggregate amount outstanding at any time not in excess of $5.0 million (without giving effect to the forgiveness of any such loan);

             

            (iv)          the payment of reasonable and customary fees and expenses to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, directors of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or

            (v)           any transaction between or among the Borrower and any Restricted Subsidiary or between or among Restricted Subsidiaries, and any Guarantees issued by the
              Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary for the benefit of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that, until the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date and so long as the Second Lien Term Loans are outstanding and the Second Lien
              Loan Documents (or any agreement or instrument governing any outstanding Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) includes provisions requiring that any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities must be applied (or, at the
              option of the lenders, must be applied), or that the Pulitzer Entities must use best, reasonable best or commercially reasonable efforts to use any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities, to repay borrowings under the Second Lien Loan Documents
              (or any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) before such cash flow may be applied to pay principal of or interest on the Term Loans or any other Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness (it being understood that the Second Lien
              Loan Documents (or any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) will not be deemed to include provisions to the foregoing effect solely by virtue of Liens on Lee Collateral, Pulitzer Collateral or other collateral,

            (vi)          the payment of reasonable and customary compensation (including fees, expenses, benefits, severance, change of control payments and equity and other incentive
              arrangements) to, and employee benefit arrangements, including, without limitation, split-dollar insurance policies, and indemnity or similar arrangements provided on behalf of, directors, officers, employees, members of management,

              future amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal entered into after the Effective Date will be permitted to the extent that, immediately after giving effect thereto, the applicable agreement, taken as a whole, is not
              materially more disadvantageous to the Lenders, as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower, than the terms of such agreement in effect on the Effective Date;

             

            (viii)      (a) any agreement between any Person and an Affiliate of such Person existing at the time such Person is acquired by or merged with or into or consolidated with
              the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such agreement was not entered into in contemplation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation, or any amendment thereto (so long as, immediately after giving effect to any
              such amendment, the applicable agreement, taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to the Lenders, as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower, as compared to the applicable agreement as in effect on the date of such
              acquisition or merger or consolidation) and (b) any merger or consolidation of the Borrower with or into an Affiliate of the Borrower solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Borrower in another jurisdiction;

              less favorable to the Borrower  or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary with a Person that is not an Affiliate;

             

            (x)           any purchases by the Borrower’s Affiliates of Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries the majority of which Indebtedness is placed

              accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing stating that the terms of such transaction, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable than those that might reasonably have been obtained by the Borrower or such
              Restricted Subsidiary in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate.

              the Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the Successor Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be less than or equal to such Consolidated Leverage Ratio prior to such transaction;

             

            (v)            if the Successor Borrower is not the Borrower, each Subsidiary Guarantor (unless it is the other party to the transactions above, in which case clause (i)
              shall apply) shall have, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, confirmed that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall apply to all of such Successor Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement (which, for the

              Subsidiary that merges into the Borrower, the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors will not be required to comply with the preceding clauses (v) and (vi).

             

            (c)          In addition, the Borrower will not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not the Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving

              Guarantor or the Borrower or (ii) merge with a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Subsidiary Guarantor in a State of the United States or the District of Columbia, as long as the amount of
              Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby (and such surviving entity remains a Subsidiary Guarantor) and, (b) any Restricted Subsidiary may dissolve, liquidate or wind up its affairs or merge with or into the Borrower or

              Intercreditor Agreement, the Junior Intercreditor Agreement, the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement and the Pulitzer Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable) and the Successor Borrower or the Successor Guarantor, as the case
              may be, will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, under this Agreement, the CreditLoan Documents and the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, the Junior Intercreditor Agreement, the Pulitzer Junior
              Intercreditor Agreement and the Pulitzer Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable), but, in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, the predecessor Borrower will not be released from the obligation to pay the

              Incurred to Refinance the Second Lien Term Loans) will be deemed to include provisions to the foregoing effect solely by virtue of Liens on Lee Collateral, Pulitzer Collateral or other collateral, Guarantees, maturity or structural

              fees, expenses, interest, premium and principal payments in respect of Indebtedness for borrowed money in respect of which any of the Pulitzer Entities is the direct obligor and (v) Investments made in cash by the Pulitzer Entities, in each
              case, to be paid or made from cash flows (including, but not limited to, Net Available Cash from any Asset Disposition of any assets or properties of the Pulitzer Entities) originally generated or received (other than directly or indirectly
              received from any Lee Entity) by the Pulitzer Entities; provided that, in the case of clauses (i) through (v) above, to the extent the Pulitzer Entities do not have sufficient cash flows (including Net Available Cash from any Asset
              Disposition of any assets or properties of Pulitzer Entities to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement and any other documents governing any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) to make such payments as
              determined in Good Faith by the Borrower, such payments may be paid by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

              properties of the Lee Entities) originally generated or received (other than directly or indirectly received from a Pulitzer Entity) by the Lee Entities.

                Standstill Period”); or

             

            11.04       Default Under Other Agreements.  (i)  The Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall (x) default in any payment of any Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) beyond the

              default or default arises (or arose on or prior to the Effective Date)) under a Deferred Intercompany Note solely as a result of the Borrower’s, Lee Publications, Inc.’s or Sioux City Newspapers, Inc.’s failure (X) to pay, prior to the final
              maturity thereof, the principal amount of the Intercompany Loans under the Deferred Intercompany Notes as and when it becomes (or became) due and payable and (Y) to have paid, prior to such Effective Date, interest on the Intercompany Loans

              also shall include JPMCB in its capacity as Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents) to act as specified herein and in the other CreditLoan Documents.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance of such Note shall be deemed
              irrevocably to authorize, the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement, the other CreditLoan Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as
              are specifically delegated to or required of the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Administrative Agent may perform any of its respective duties hereunder by
              or through its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates.

             

            12.02      Nature of Duties.  (a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other CreditLoan Documents.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor
              any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it or them hereunder or under any other CreditLoan Document or in connection herewith or therewith, unless caused by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct
              (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).  The duties of the Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this
              Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document a fiduciary
              relationship in respect of any Lender or the holder of any Note; and nothing in this Agreement or in any other CreditLoan Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any
              other CreditLoan Document except as expressly set forth
              herein or therein.

                and agreed that the Joint Lead Arrangers shall each be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Administrative Agent as, and to the extent, provided for under Sections

              12.0612.07 and 13.01.  Without limitation of the foregoing, none of the Joint Lead Arrangers shall, solely by reason of

             

            
              -179-

              Documents, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or the holder of any Note.

             

            12.03       Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent.  Independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the holder of each Note, to the extent it
              deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans and the
              taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any
              duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or
              at any time or times thereafter.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender or the holder of any Note for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or
              other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or be required to make any inquiry
              concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document, or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or, the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default or notice
                  of any the events or circumstances set forth or described in Section 9.01(f). 

             

            12.04      Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent.  If the Administrative Agent requests instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any act or action (including
              failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other CreditLoan
              Document, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders if required
              hereunder); and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Lender by reason of so refraining.  Without limiting the foregoing, neither any Lender nor the holder of any Note shall have any right of action whatsoever against the
              Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other CreditLoan Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders if required hereunder). 

             

            12.05      Delegation of Duties.  The
                  Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.
                  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

             

            12.0512.06       

                 Reliance.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram,
              radiogram, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by any Person that the Administrative Agent reasonably believed to

             

            
              -180-

                  Indemnification.  To the extent the Administrative Agent (or any affiliate thereof) is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrower, the Lenders will reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any affiliate thereof)
              in proportion to their respective “percentage” as used in determining the Required Lenders (determined as if there were no Defaulting Lenders) for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions,
              judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent (or any affiliate thereof) in performing its duties hereunder or under any other CreditLoan Document or in any way relating to or arising out
              of this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document with
              respect to such duties or its role as Administrative Agent; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
              disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s (or such affiliate’s) gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). 

             

            12.08      Posting of Communications.  (a) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing
                  Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinksTM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

             

            (b)          Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or
                    modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis,
                    each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for
                    approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of
                    the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

             

            (c)           THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT
                    THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF
                    ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR

             

            
              -181-

              
                

            

            A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE
                  DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY OTHER AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY,
                  “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY CREDIT PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR
                  EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

             

            “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or
                  other material provided by or on behalf of any Credit Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender by means of electronic
                  communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Approved Electronic Platform.

             

            (d)          Each Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the
                    Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which
                    could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing
                    notice may be sent to such email address.

             

            (e)           Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable
                    law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

             

            (f)            Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant
                    to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

             

            12.0712.09       

                  The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity.  With respect to its obligation to make (or be deemed to have made) Loans, or issue or participate in Letters of Credit, under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall
              have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term “Lender”, “Required Lenders”, “Majority
                Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, include the Administrative Agent in its respective individual capacities.  The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend
              money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, investment banking, trust or other business with, or provide debt financing, equity capital or other

             

            
              -182-

              
                

            

            services (including financial advisory services) to any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party (or any Person engaged in a similar business with any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof) as if they
              were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for
              the same to the Lenders.

             

            12.0812.10       

                   Holders.  The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be,
              shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.  Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on
              any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or endorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

             

            12.0912.11      

                    Resignation by the Administrative Agent.  (a) The Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its respective functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other CreditLoan Documents at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and, unless a Default or an Event of
              Default under Section 11.05 then exists, the Borrower.  Any such resignation by an Administrative Agent hereunder shall also constitute its (and its applicable Affiliate’s) resignation as an Issuing Lender in which case the resigning
              Administrative Agent (and its applicable Affiliates) (x) shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit hereunder and (y) shall maintain all of its rights as Issuing Lender with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it
              prior to the date of such resignation.  Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.

             

            (b)           Upon any such notice of resignation by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder who shall be a
              commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned (provided that the Borrower’s approval shall not be required if an Event of Default
              then exists).

             

            (c)           If a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been so appointed within such 30 day period, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall
              not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that the Borrower’s consent shall not be required if an Event of Default then exists), shall then appoint a successor Administrative Agent who shall serve as Administrative Agent
              hereunder or thereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.

             

            (d)           If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 35th day after the date any such notice of resignation was given by the
              Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under any other CreditLoan Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
              Administrative Agent as provided above.

             

            
              -183-

              
                

            

            (e)            Upon a resignation of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 12.0912.11, such former Administrative Agent shall remain indemnified to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other CreditLoan Documents and the provisions of this Section 12 (and the
              analogous provisions of the other CreditLoan Documents)
              shall continue in effect for the benefit of such former Administrative Agent for all of its actions and inactions while serving as the Administrative Agent.

             

            12.1012.12     

                     Collateral Matters.  (a)  Each Lender authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Creditors.  Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder
              of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 13.12) in accordance with
              the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders, as the case may be) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably
              incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.  The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to
              time prior to an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to
              the Security Documents.

             

            (b)           The Lenders hereby authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i)
              upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the CreditLoan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise
              disposed of (to Persons other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with Section 10.05, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or all of the
              Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 13.12) or (iv) as otherwise may be expressly provided in this Agreement and/or the relevant Security Documents.  Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will
              confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 12.1012.12.

             

            (c)           The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Credit Party or is cared
              for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to
              exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 12.1012.12 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that
              in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the
              Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross

             

            
              -184-

              
                

            

            negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

             

            (d)            The Lenders hereby authorize and instruct the Collateral Agent to enter into each Intercreditor Agreement and to take all actions and execute all documents required or deemed
              advisable by it in accordance with the terms of each such Intercreditor Agreement.

             

            12.1112.13      

                    Delivery of Information.  The Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, notices, communications or other information received by the Administrative
              Agent from any Credit Party, any Subsidiary, the Required Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document except (i) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document and (ii) as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any
                Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or other written communication received by and in the possession of the Administrative Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such
                specific request. 

             

            12.14       Certain ERISA Matters.  (a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became
                  a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and each other Agent and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the
                  benefit of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

             

            (i)           such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to

                    respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, and the conditions for exemptive relief thereunder are and will
                    continue to be satisfied in connection therewith,

             

            (iii)         (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in,
                    administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in,

             

            
              -185-

                  Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements
                  of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE
                  84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

             

            (iv)          such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such
                    Lender.

             

            (b)           In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately
                    preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in

                    date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, that the Administrative Agent is not
                    a fiduciary with respect to the Collateral or the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement
                    (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

              referred to herein and therein and any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto or thereto, of each Agent  and its Affiliates in connection with its or their syndication efforts with respect to this Agreement and of each Agent (including,
              without limitation, any successor Agent contemplated by Section 12.0912.11,

              -186-

              
                

            

            from and against any and all present and future stamp, excise and other similar documentary taxes with respect to the foregoing matters and save each Agent, each of the Issuing Lenders and each of the Lenders
              harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to such Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender) to pay such taxes; and (iii) indemnify each
              Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, affiliates, trustees and investment advisors (each, an “Indemnitee”) from and hold each of them harmless
              against any and all liabilities, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and
              disbursements) of whatsoever kind or nature incurred by, imposed on or assessed against any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, (a) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether
              or not any Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender is a party thereto and whether or not such investigation, litigation or other proceeding is brought by or on behalf of any Credit Party) related to the entering into and/or performance of
              this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document
              or the use of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds of any Loans hereunder (including any refusal by the Issuing Lender to honor a
                  demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such a demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit) or the consummation of any transactions contemplated herein
              or in any other CreditLoan Document or the
              exercise of any of their rights or remedies provided herein or in the other CreditLoan Documents or in any other way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document, or (b) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any Real Property at any time owned,
              leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the generation, storage, transportation, handling or disposal of Hazardous Materials by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries at any location, whether or not owned, leased or
              operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the non-compliance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with any Environmental Law (including applicable permits thereunder), or any Environmental Claim asserted against the Borrower,
              any of its Subsidiaries or any Real Property at any time owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, including, in each case, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other consultants
              incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
              Person to be indemnified (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)).  To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender set
              forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is
              permissible under applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, except as expressly provided herein, this Section 13.01 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses,
              liabilities, claims, damages or expenses arising from any non-Tax claim. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any indirect, special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages in connection with this Agreement or the other CreditLoan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.  .

            13.02       Right of Setoff.  (a) Subject to the terms of each Intercreditor Agreement, in addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not
              by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without
              presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Credit Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any
              other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender wherever
              located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Credit Party against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of the Credit Parties to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender under this
              Agreement or under any of the other CreditLoan Documents,
              including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations purchased by such Lender pursuant to Section 13.06(b), and all other claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document, irrespective of whether or not
              the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.

             

            (b)          NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING SUBSECTION (a), AT ANY TIME THAT THE LOANS OR ANY OTHER OBLIGATION SHALL
                BE SECURED BY REAL PROPERTY LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, NO LENDER SHALL EXERCISE A RIGHT OF SETOFF, LIEN OR COUNTERCLAIM OR TAKE ANY COURT OR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION OR INSTITUTE ANY PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
                NOTE UNLESS IT IS TAKEN WITH THE CONSENT OF THE REQUIRED LENDERS OR APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, IF SUCH SETOFF OR ACTION OR PROCEEDING WOULD OR MIGHT (PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTIONS 580a, 580b,
                580d AND 726 OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OR SECTION 2924 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, IF APPLICABLE, OR OTHERWISE) AFFECT OR IMPAIR THE VALIDITY, PRIORITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE LIENS GRANTED TO THE COLLATERAL AGENT
                PURSUANT TO THE SECURITY DOCUMENTS OR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THE NOTES AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND ANY ATTEMPTED EXERCISE BY ANY LENDER OF ANY SUCH RIGHT WITHOUT OBTAINING SUCH CONSENT OF THE REQUIRED LENDERS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE
                AGENT SHALL BE NULL AND VOID.  THIS SUBSECTION (b) SHALL BE SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF EACH OF THE LENDERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HEREUNDER.

             

            (c)           Except to the extent that this Agreement or a court order expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a
                    particular Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it (other than in connection with an assignment made pursuant to Section 10.6), or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8, or otherwise), in a greater proportion than

             

            
              -188-

              
                

            

            any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the
                  Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders
                  with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of
                  such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest; provided further,
                  that to the extent prohibited by applicable law as described in the definition of “Excluded Swap Obligation,” no amounts received from, or set off with respect to, any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such
                  Guarantor.

             

            13.03       Notices.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile or electronic
              mail) and sent or delivered by mail, facsimile, electronic mail or overnight courier service:  if to any Credit Party, at the address specified opposite its signature below or in the other relevant CreditLoan Documents; if to any Lender, at its address specified on Schedule II or in the administrative questionnaire delivered
              to the Administrative Agent; and if to the Administrative Agent, at the Notice Office; or, as to any Credit Party or the Administrative Agent, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties
              hereto and, as to each Lender, at such other address as shall be designated by such Lender in a written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.  All such notices and communications shall, when sent by mail, facsimile, electronic
              mail or courier, be effective when deposited in the mail, sent by facsimile or electronic mail or delivered to the overnight courier, as the case may be, except that notices and communications to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower shall
              not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as the case may be.

             

            13.04       Benefit of Agreement; Assignments; Participations.  (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors
              and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and, provided further,
              that, although any Lender may transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder
              except as provided in Sections 2.13 and 13.04(b)) and the transferee, assignee or participant, as the case may be, shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and, provided further, that no Lender shall transfer or grant any
              participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (unless such
              Letter of Credit is not extended beyond the Revolving Loan Maturity Date) in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of
              applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement or to Section 13.07(a) shall not
              constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or Fees payable hereunder), or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a 

             

            
              -189-

              
                

            

            waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment (or the
              available portion thereof) or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its
              rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the CreditLoan Documents) supporting the Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder in which such participant is participating.  In the
              case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other CreditLoan Documents (including, without limitation, any rights of set-off) (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in
              favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, each participant shall
              be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10 and 5.04 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 5.04(b) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.04(b) shall be
              delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided further that such participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.10 and 5.04 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this
              Section and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections  2.10 and 5.04 with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to
              receive a greater payment results from an adoption of or any change in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive
              (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority made subsequent to the date hereof that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation.

             

            (b)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender (or any Lender together with one or more other Lenders) may (x) assign all or a portion of its Commitments and related outstanding
              Obligations (or, if the Commitments with respect to the relevant Tranche have terminated, outstanding Obligations) hereunder to (i)(A) its parent company and/or any affiliate of such Lender which is at least 50% owned by such Lender or its
              parent company or (B) to one or more other Lenders or any affiliate of any such other Lender which is at least 50% owned by such other Lender or its parent company (provided that any fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised
              by the same investment advisor of another fund which is a Lender (or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor) shall be treated as an affiliate of such other Lender for the purposes of this sub-clause (x)(i)(B)), or (ii) in the case of any
              Lender that is a fund that invests in loans, any other fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of any Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor
                  or, provided that the consent of each Issuing Lender shall be required in connection with any such assignment
                  pursuant to clause (x) above (such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or (y) assign all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $1,000,000, in the case of the Revolving Facility, or (except in the
              case of an assignment by the Arranger (or an Affiliate thereof) in connection with the Term Loan Facility) $1,000,000, in the case of the Term Loan Facility, in the aggregate for the assigning Lender or

             

            
              -190-

              
                

            

            assigning Lenders, of such Commitments and related outstanding Obligations (or, if the Commitments with respect to the relevant Tranche have terminated, outstanding Obligations) hereunder to one or more
              Eligible Transferees (treating any fund that invests in loans and any other fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such fund or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor as a single Eligible
              Transferee), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided that (i) at such time, Schedule I shall be deemed modified to reflect the
              Commitments and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be, of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders, (ii) upon the surrender of the relevant Notes by the assigning Lender (or, upon such assigning Lender’s indemnifying the Borrower for
              any lost Note pursuant to a customary indemnification agreement) new Notes will be issued, at the Borrower’s expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender upon the request of such new Lender or assigning Lender, such new Notes to be
              in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.05 (with appropriate modifications) to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be, (iii) the consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, the Borrower, shall be required in
              connection with any such assignment pursuant to clause (y) above (each of which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that consent shall be deemed to have been given by the Borrower if the Borrower has not
              responded within five Business Days of a request therefor), (iv) the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500, and
              (v) no such transfer or assignment will be effective until recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 13.15.  To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b), the assigning Lender shall be
              relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments and outstanding Loans.  At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective
              assignee Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, provide to the Borrower the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable, a Section 5.04(b)(ii) Certificate) described in Section 5.04(b).  To the extent that
              an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s Commitments and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 2.13 or this Section 13.04(b) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 2.10, 3.06 or
              5.04 from those being charged by the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower, in accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of
              this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment).

             

            (c)           Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge to a
              Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank.  No pledge pursuant to this clause (c) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its
              obligations hereunder.

             

            13.05      No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any
              right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other CreditLoan
              Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any other Credit Party and the Administrative Agent, the 

             

            
              -191-

              
                

            

            Collateral Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other CreditLoan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
              exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder.  The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other CreditLoan Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any
              Issuing Lender or any Lender would otherwise have.  No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the
              rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

             

            13.06      Payments Pro Rata.  (a)  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf
              of the Borrower in respect of any Obligations hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Lenders entitled thereto (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share
              of any such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

             

            (b)           Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or in the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether
              by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the CreditLoan Documents, or otherwise), which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, Unpaid
              Drawings, Commitment Fee or Letter of Credit Fees, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the
              total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the
              Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter
              recovered from such Lenders, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest; provided, further, that to the extent prohibited by applicable law as
              described in the definition of “Excluded Swap Obligation,” no amounts received from, or set off with respect to, any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor.

             

            (c)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Sections 13.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to the express provisions of this Agreement
              which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders.

             

            13.07       Calculations; Computations.  (a)  The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently
              applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Lenders).

             

            
              -192-

              
                

            

            (b)           All computations of interest, Commitment Fee and other Fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but
              excluding the last day; except that in the case of Letter of Credit Fees and Facing Fees, the last day shall be included) occurring in the period for which such interest, Commitment Fee or Fees are payable.

             

            13.08       GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  (a)  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDITLOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL , EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED
              IN ANY MORTGAGE, BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.  ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDITLOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE
              OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, IN EACH CASE WHICH ARE LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDITLOAN DOCUMENT THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND
              UNCONDITIONALLY, THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS.  THE BORROWER HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURTS LACK PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE BORROWER, AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM, IN ANY LEGAL
              ACTION PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDITLOAN
              DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS, THAT SUCH COURTS LACK PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE BORROWER.  THE BORROWER FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH
              ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH OPPOSITE ITS SIGNATURE BELOW, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE 30 DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING.  THE
              BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS AND FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER CREDITLOAN DOCUMENT THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS WAS IN ANY WAY INVALID OR INEFFECTIVE.  NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE HOLDER OF ANY NOTE TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER
              MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE BORROWER IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

             

            (b)         THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN
              CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDITLOAN

            FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

             

            (c)          EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS

            13.09      Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission) and by the different parties hereto on
              separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.  A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with
              the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any  document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby
                  shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries 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, physical delivery
                  thereof 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; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept electronic signatures in any form or
                  format without its prior written consent.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby (i) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement

                  pages thereto)  shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (ii) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents based solely on the lack
                  of paper original copies of any Loan Documents, including with respect to any signature pages thereto.

            (a)          Neither this Agreement nor any other CreditLoan Document nor any terms hereof or thereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the
              respective Credit Parties party hereto or thereto and the Required Lenders (although (x) additional parties may be
              added to (and annexes may be modified to reflect such additions), and(y)
              Subsidiaries of the Borrower may be released from, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof, and (z) this Agreement only be amended as provided in Section 2.10(d), in each case
              without the consent of the other Credit Parties party thereto or the Required Lenders), provided that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the consent of each Lender (with Obligations being directly affected
              in the case of following clause (i)), (i)(x) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note or extend the stated expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond its Maturity Date, or reduce the rate
                or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof (it being understood that any amendment
                or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement or to Section 13.07(a) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or Fees for the purposes of this clause (i)), or (y) reduce the amount of, or extend the date of, any Scheduled Term Loan Repayment of the Term Loans, (ii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as expressly provided
              in the CreditLoan Documents) under the Guarantee and
              Collateral Agreement, (iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 13.12(a) (except for technical amendments with respect to additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement which afford the protections to such
              additional extensions of credit of the type provided to the Term Loans and the Revolving Loan Commitments on the Effective Date), (iv) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders (it being understood that, with the
              consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the extensions of Term Loans and Revolving Loan
              Commitments are included on the Effective Date) or (v) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided further, that no such change, waiver, discharge or
              termination shall (1) increase the Commitments of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events
              of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Lender, and that an increase in the available portion of any Commitment of any Lender shall not constitute an increase of
              the Commitment of such Lender), (2) except in cases where additional extensions of term loans and/or revolving loans are being afforded substantially the same treatment afforded to the Term Loans and Revolving Loans pursuant to this Agreement
              as in effect on, and after giving effect to, the Effective Date, (x) without the consent of the Majority Lenders of each Tranche which is being allocated a lesser prepayment, repayment or commitment reduction as a result of the actions
              described below, alter the required application of any prepayments or repayments (or commitment reduction), as between the various Tranches, pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or 5.02 (excluding Section 5.02(b)) (although, subject to clause (7)
              below, the Required Lenders may waive, in whole or in part, any such prepayment, repayment or commitment reduction, so long as the application, as amongst the various Tranches, of any such prepayment, repayment or commitment reduction which
              is still required to be made is not altered) or (y) without the consent of each Lender of each Tranche which is adversely affected by such amendment, amend the definition of Majority Lenders

             

            
              -195-

              
                

            

            (it being understood that with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Majority Lenders on substantially the
              same basis as the extensions of Term Loans and Revolving Loan Commitments are included on the Effective Date), (3) without the consent of each Issuing Lender, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3 or alter its rights or
              obligations with respect to Letters of Credit, (4) without the consent of the Administrative Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 12 or any other provision as same relates to the rights or obligations of the Administrative
              Agent, (5) without the consent of the Collateral Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision relating to the rights or obligations of the Collateral Agent, (6) without the written consent of the Majority
                Lenders with respect to the Revolving Facility, amend, modify or waive (i) any condition precedent set forth in Section 7 with respect to the making of
                Revolving Loans or the issuance of Letters or Credit (it being understood that a general waiver of an existing Default or Event of Default by the required Lenders or an amendment approved by the required Lenders that has the effect
              of “curing” an existing Default or Event of Default and permitting the making of Loans or other extension of credit shall constitute a waiver of a condition precedent governed by this clause), (ii) Section 5.01(a) or 5.02 (excluding Section
              5.02(b)) to alter the required application of prepayments or repayments (or Commitment reduction) either in a manner (x) adverse to the RL Lenders or (y) that would alter the priority, or reduce the amount, of any payment received by the RL
              Lenders or (iii) any provision of Section 10.09 (and any defined terms solely used therein) or any other provision to any CreditLoan Document that has been added solely for the benefit of the Revolving Facility (as may be agreed between the Majority Lenders under the Revolving Facility and the
              Borrower) (and for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the Required Lenders may not, and nor shall the consent of the Required Lenders be needed to, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 10.09 (or any defined
              term solely used therein) or any other provision to any CreditLoan
              Document that has been added solely for the benefit of the Revolving Facility (as may be agreed between the Majority Lenders under the Revolving Facility and the Borrower)) or (87) without the written consent of each non-Defaulting RL Lender, amend, modify or waive Section 5.05 of the Pari Passu
              Intercreditor Agreement or the Pulitzer Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (once in effect) to alter the required application of prepayments or repayments or application of proceeds in a manner adverse to the RL Lenders.

             

            (b)           If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of or to any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by clauses (i) through (v),
              inclusive, of the first proviso to Section 13.12(a), the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then the Borrower shall have the right, so
              long as all non-consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as described in either clause (A) or (B) below, to either (A) replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders (or, at the option of the Borrower, if the
              respective Lender’s consent is required with respect to less than all Tranches of Loans (or related Commitments), to replace only the Revolving Loan Commitments and/or Loans of the respective non-consenting Lender which gave rise to the need
              to obtain such Lender’s individual consent) with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or
              termination or (B) terminate such non-consenting Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment (if such Lender’s consent is required as a result of its Revolving Loan Commitment) and/or repay

             

            
              -196-

              
                

            

            each Tranche of outstanding Loans of such Lender which gave rise to the need to obtain such Lender’s consent and/or cash collateralize its applicable RL Percentage of the Letter of Credit of Outstandings, in
              accordance with Sections 4.02(b) and/or 5.01(b), provided that, unless the Commitments which are terminated and Loans which are repaid pursuant to preceding clause (B) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the addition
              of new Lenders or the increase of the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of existing Lenders (who in each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to preceding clause (B), the Required Lenders
              (determined after giving effect to the proposed action) shall specifically consent thereto, provided further, that the Borrower shall not have the right to replace a Lender, terminate its Commitment or repay its Loans solely as
              a result of the exercise of such Lender’s rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such Lender) pursuant to the second proviso to Section 13.12(a).

             

            13.13       Survival.  All indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06, 5.04, 12.0612.07 and 13.01 shall survive the execution,
                delivery and termination of this Agreement and the Notes and the making and repayment of the Obligations.

             

            13.14       Domicile of Loans.  Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or affiliate of such Lender.  Notwithstanding anything
              to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a transfer of Loans pursuant to this Section 13.14 would, at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Section 2.10, 2.11, 3.06 or 5.04 from those being charged by the
              respective Lender prior to such transfer, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after
              the date of the respective transfer).

             

            13.15       Register.  The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as its agent, solely for purposes of this Section 13.15, to maintain a register (the “Register”)

              on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender.  Failure to make any such recordation,
              or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans.  With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan
              made pursuant to such Commitments shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitments and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts
              owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor.  The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on
              the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 13.04(b).  Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption
              Agreement to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note (if any) evidencing
              such Loan, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender at the request of any such Lender.  The Borrower agrees to indemnify the
              Administrative Agent from

             

            
              -197-

              
                

            

            and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent in performing its duties under this Section
              13.15 (but excluding any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
              final and non-appealable decision)).  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this
              purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other
              obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (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 this Agreement) 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, and such Lender, each Credit Party and the
              Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

             

            13.16      Confidentiality.  (a) Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 13.16, each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender agrees that it will use its reasonable efforts not to disclose without the prior consent of the Borrower (other than to its affiliates and its and its affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, auditors, advisors or counsel or to another Lender
              if such Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information, provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 13.16 to
              the same extent as such Lender) any non-public confidential iInformation

              (as defined below) with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished
              pursuant to this Agreement or any other CreditLoan Document, provided that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may disclose any such information (i) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this Section
              13.16(a) by the respective Lender or is or has become available to such Lender on a non-confidential basis, (ii) as may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory
              body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (iii) as may
              be required or appropriate in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender, (v) to the Administrative Agent or the
              Collateral Agent, (vi) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in any swap, hedge or similar agreement (or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor) or to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower
              and its obligations, so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) or credit insurance provider agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 13.16 and (vii) to any prospective or actual transferee or
              participant in connection with any contemplated 

             

            
              -198-

              
                

            

            transfer or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or any interest therein by such Lender, provided that such prospective transferee agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions
              contained in this Section 13.16. “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its
                  business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower and other than information pertaining to this
                  Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry; provided that in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such
                  information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 13.16 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.

             

            (b)          The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender may share with any of its affiliates, and such affiliates may share with such Lender, any information related to the
              Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any non-public customer information regarding the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries), in each case only if such Lender or affiliate shall have determined
              in its sole discretion that the Lender or affiliate with whom the information is to be shared should have access to such information; provided that such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 13.16 to the same
              extent as such Lender.

             

            13.17       Application of Proceeds.

             

            (a)            After the exercise of remedies (including rights of setoff) provided for in Section 11 (or after the Loans and the Obligations owing hereunder have automatically become
              immediately due and payable as set forth in Section 11), any amounts received on account of the Obligations (whether as a result of a payment under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, any realization on the Collateral, any setoff rights,
              any distribution in connection with any proceedings or otherwise and whether received in cash or otherwise) shall be applied in accordance with the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement and the Pulitzer Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (once
              in effect).

             

            13.18       The Patriot Act.  Each Lender subject to the USA PATRIOT ACT (Title 111 of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”) hereby notifies
              the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and the other Credit Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify
              the Borrower and the other Credit Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act. 

             

            13.19       Limitation on Interest Rate .  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law
                  (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance

             

            
              -199-

              
                

            

            with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with
                  all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of
                  this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest
                  thereon at the NYFRB Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

             

            13.20       Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.  To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for a Swap or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the
                  parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection
                  Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and
                  any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

             

            In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a
                  “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and
                  such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution
                  Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act
                  Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised
                  against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of
                  the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any
                  Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

             

            13.21       Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other
                    agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of
                    an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

    For an agreed consideration, [the][each] Assignor hereby irrevocably sells and assigns to [the] [each] Assignee, and [the] [each] Assignee hereby irrevocably purchases and assumes from [the][each]

      governed thereby or in any way based on or related to any of the foregoing, including contract claims, tort claims, malpractice claims, statutory claims and all other claims at law or in equity related to the rights and obligations sold and assigned

          WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent are on the date hereof amending the Existing Credit Agreement pursuant to an Amendment Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Amendment

              Agreement”), to the Existing Credit Agreement (as so amended and restated, and as further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified after the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined
            herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement);

           

          WHEREAS, the Reaffirming Parties expect to realize, or have realized, substantial direct and indirect benefits as a result of the Credit Agreement becoming effective and the consummation of the

            interests, acknowledgments, obligations, subordinations and consents under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Security Documents and Credit Documents to which it is a party and agrees that notwithstanding the amendment of the
            Existing Credit Agreement, the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, such guarantees, pledges, grants of security interests, agreements, acknowledgments, obligations, subordinations
            and consents shall be, and continue to be, in full force and effect,

           

          
            

            
              

            2

            

          

          
          1.1.2      ratifies the Security Documents and the other Credit Documents to which
              it is a party,

              Agreement and the other Security Documents to which it is a party remain in full force and effect on a continuous basis, unimpaired, uninterrupted and undischarged, and having the same perfected status and priority as collateral security for
              the Obligations as existed prior to giving effect to the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement pursuant to the Credit Agreement,

           

            

          1.1.4      agrees that each of the representations and warranties made by each Reaffirming Party in the Security Documents
              to which it is a party is true and correct as to it in all material respects on and as of the date hereof (unless such representations expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects on
