 ARTICLE II 
 The Credits 
  
 SECTION 2.1. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender
agrees, severally and not jointly, (i) to make a term loan to the Borrower on the Closing Date in a principal amount not to exceed its Initial Term Loan Commitment, and (ii) to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower, at any time and from time to time
on or after the date hereof, and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time
outstanding that will not result in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the limits set forth in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and
limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed. 
  
 SECTION 2.2. Loans. (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of
Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it
being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Swingline Loans and Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.22(e)(ii), the
Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) (A) in the case of a Revolving Borrowing, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000, and (B) in the case of a Term Loan Borrowing or an
Incremental Term Loan Borrowing, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 (except with respect to any Incremental Term Loan Borrowing, to the extent otherwise provided in the related Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement)
or (ii) in the case of any Borrowing, equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments. 
  
 (b) Subject to Section 2.8, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans, as the Borrower may request pursuant to Section
2.3. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided, that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to
repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made,
would result in more than ten Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate
Borrowings. 
  
 (c) Except with respect to Swingline Loans and
Loans made pursuant to Section 2.22(e)(ii), each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Funding Office not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time,
and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transfer the amounts so received to the account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein
specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders. 
  
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such 

  

 27 

 
Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on
the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made
funds available then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding
amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the
time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). If
such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall
not be entitled to request any Revolving Credit Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. 
  
 SECTION 2.3. Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Borrowing (other than a Swingline Loan or a deemed Borrowing
pursuant to Section 2.22(e), as to which this Section 2.3 shall not apply), the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Borrowing Request (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, three Business Days before a proposed Borrowing, and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable, shall be
signed by or on behalf of the Borrower and shall specify the following information: (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Term Loan Borrowing, an Incremental Term Loan Borrowing or a Revolving Credit Borrowing, and whether such
Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing (provided, that for the 30-day period immediately following the Closing Date, the Borrower shall not be permitted to request a Eurodollar Borrowing for any Eurodollar Loan having
an Interest Period greater than one month); (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed; (iv) the amount of such Borrowing; (v) if such Borrowing is
to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto; and (vi) that the conditions set forth in Sections 4.1(b)-(c) are satisfied on the date of such Borrowing Request; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any
contrary specification in any Borrowing Request, each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.2. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be
an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.3 (and the contents thereof), and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing. 
  
 SECTION 2.4. Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender of Term Loans, the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.11, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender, the then unpaid
principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Revolving Credit Lender on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and (iii) to the Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; 

  

 28 

 
provided, that on each date that a Revolving Credit Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date
such Borrowing was requested. 
  
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain
in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid
to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. 
  
 (c) The
Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type and Class thereof and, if applicable, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due
and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower or any Guarantor and each Lender’s share thereof. 

 
 (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b)
and (c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error
therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms. 
  
 (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it hereunder be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to
such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (each such promissory note, a “Note”). Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, in the event any Lender shall request and receive a Note, the interests represented by such Note shall at all times (including after any assignment of all or part of such interests pursuant to Section 9.4) be
represented by one or more Notes payable to the payee named therein or its registered assigns. 
  
 SECTION 2.5. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year and on each date on which any
Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Commitment Fee Rate on the daily unused amount of the Commitments of such Lender during the preceding
quarter (or other period commencing with the date hereof or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which the Commitments of such Lender shall expire or be terminated); provided, that any commitment fee accrued with
respect to any of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender
except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided, further, that no commitment fee shall accrue on any of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender so
long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. The Commitment Fee due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the date hereof and
shall cease to accrue on the date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein. For purposes of calculating Commitment Fees only, no portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be deemed utilized as a
result of outstanding Swingline Loans. 
  
 (b) The Borrower agrees
to pay to the Agents and the Lenders, for their respective accounts, the fees set forth in the Syndication Letter at the times and in the amounts specified therein (the “Facility Fees”). 
  

 29 

 (c) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to each Revolving Credit Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on
each Fee Payment Date a fee (an “L/C Participation Fee”) calculated on such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the daily aggregate L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements) during
the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the date hereof or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired and the Revolving Credit Commitments of all
Lenders shall have been terminated) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage from time to time used to determine the interest rate on Revolving Credit Borrowings comprised of Eurodollar Loans pursuant to Section 2.6, and (ii) to the
Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee of 0.25% per annum on the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date (the “Issuing Bank
Fees”). All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. 
  
 (d) All Fees shall be paid in Dollars on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as
appropriate, among the Lenders, except that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances. 
  
 SECTION 2.6. Interest on Loans. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7, the Loans comprising each ABR
Borrowing, including each Swingline Loan, shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when the Alternate Base Rate is determined by reference to the Prime Rate
and over a year of 360 days at all other times and calculated from and including the date of such Borrowing to but excluding the date of repayment thereof) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage in effect
from time to time. 
  
 (b) Subject to the provisions of Section
2.7, the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such
Borrowing plus the Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time. 
  
 (c) Interest on each Loan shall be payable to the applicable Lenders, through the Administrative Agent, on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The applicable Alternate Base Rate
or Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  
 SECTION 2.7. Default Interest. Any amount (whether of principal,
interest, Fees or otherwise) not paid when due hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law (after as well as before judgment), payable on demand, (a) in the case of principal, at the rate otherwise
applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.6 plus 2.00% per annum and (b) in all other cases, at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when determined by
reference to the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times) equal to the rate that would be applicable to an ABR Term Loan plus 2.00% per annum. 
  

SECTION 2.8. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any
Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing the Administrative Agent shall have determined that dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market, or that the
rates 

  

 30 

 
at which such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to a majority in interest of the Lenders participating or to
participate in such Loan of making or maintaining its Eurodollar Loan during such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give
written or fax notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no
longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.10 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. Each determination by the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.8 shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. 
  
 SECTION 2.9. Termination and
Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Initial Term Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date. The Revolving Credit Commitments, the Swingline Commitment and the L/C Commitment shall
automatically terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all the Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 31, 2004, if the initial Credit Event shall not have
occurred by such time. 
  
 (b) Upon at least three Business
Days’ prior irrevocable written or fax notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by written notice) to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce,
the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a
minimum amount of $5,000,000 and (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure at the time. 
  
 (c) Each reduction in the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder shall be made ratably among
the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of termination of the Commitments of any Class, all accrued and unpaid
Commitment Fees relating to such Class to but excluding the date of such termination. 
  
 SECTION 2.10. Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. (a) Each Revolving Credit Borrowing and Borrowing of Term Loans initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the
case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a
Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.10. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be
allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be entitled to
request any conversion or continuation that, if made, would result in more than ten Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any one time. This Section 2.10 shall not apply to Borrowings of Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or
continued. 
  
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section
2.10, the Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or telecopy, a duly completed and executed Interest Election Request to the Administrative Agent not later than the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.3 if the Borrower
were requesting a Revolving Borrowing or Borrowing of Term Loans of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable. 
  

 31 

 (c) Each Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section
2.2: 
  
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest
Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, or if outstanding Borrowings are being combined, allocation to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified
pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
  
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
  
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR
Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and 
  
 (iv)
if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; provided,
that for the 30-day period immediately following the Closing Date, no ABR Borrowing may be converted into a Eurodollar Borrowing with an Interest Period other than of one month’s duration. 
  
 If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an
Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
  
 (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such
Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
  
 (e) If an
Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing is not timely delivered prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such
Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. 
  
 (f) If any
Eurodollar Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.15. 
  
 (g) No Borrowing may be converted to, or continued as, a Eurodollar Borrowing
at any time that an Event of Default under paragraph (b) or (c) of Article VII shall be continuing.

 (b) The Borrower shall
pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, on each Incremental Term Loan Repayment Date, a principal amount of the Other Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.11(c), 2.12 and 2.13(e)) equal to the
amount set forth for such date in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment. 
  
 (c) In the event and on each occasion that any Term Loan Commitment (other
than any Incremental Term Loan Commitment) shall be reduced or shall expire or terminate other than as a result of the making of a Term Loan, the installments payable on each Repayment Date shall be reduced pro rata by an aggregate amount equal to
the amount of such reduction, expiration or termination. 
  
 (d)
To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date and all Incremental Term Loans shall be due and payable on the applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, together in each case with
accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of payment. 
  
 (e) All repayments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to Section 2.15, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty. 
  
 SECTION 2.12. Optional Prepayments. (a) The Borrower shall have the
right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon at least three Business Days’ prior written or fax notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by written notice) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or
written or fax notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by written notice) at least one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment in the case of ABR Loans, to the Administrative 

  

 33 

 
Agent before 12:00 (noon), New York City time; provided, however, that each partial prepayment of Loans shall be in an amount that is an
integral multiple of $1,000,000. 
  
 (b) Optional prepayments of
Term Loans shall be allocated ratably between the Term Loans and the Other Term Loans, if any, and shall be applied first, in chronological order to the installments of principal in respect of the Term Loans and Other Term Loans scheduled to
be paid within 12 months after such optional prepayment and second, pro rata against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans and Other Term Loans. 
  
 (c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the
principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall
be subject to Section 2.15 but otherwise without premium or penalty. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment;
provided, however, that in the case of a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan or a Swingline Loan that is not made in connection with a termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal
amount prepaid shall be payable on the next scheduled Interest Payment Date with respect to such ABR Revolving Loan or Swingline Loan. 
  
 (d) In the event that the Term Loans are prepaid pursuant to Section 2.12(a) on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date with the proceeds of
a substantially concurrent issuance or incurrence of term loans under this Agreement, as amended, amended and restated, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified from time to time (excluding a refinancing of the Facilities in connection with
another transaction not permitted by this Agreement (as determined prior to giving effect to any amendment or waiver of this Agreement in connection with such transaction)), such prepayment shall be accompanied by a prepayment fee equal to 1.0% of
the aggregate amount of such prepayment if any of the interest rates payable in respect of such term loans is less than the corresponding interest rate that would have been payable in respect of the Term Loans. 
  
 SECTION 2.13. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) In the event of any
termination of all the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all its outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings and all outstanding Swingline Loans and replace all outstanding Letters of
Credit. If as a result of any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect thereto, then the Borrower shall, on the date of such
reduction, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof) and/or replace outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. 
  
 (b) If on any date any Loan Party shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any
Asset Sales or Recovery Events in an aggregate amount greater than $2,000,000 in any fiscal year of the Borrower then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, all such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within five
Business Days after such date to prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales that may be excluded from the foregoing
requirement pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not exceed $25,000,000 in any fiscal year of the Borrower and (ii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant
Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward such payment. 
  
 (c)
No later than the earlier of (i) 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2005, and (ii) the date on which the financial 

  

 34 

 
statements with respect to such period are delivered pursuant to Section 5.4(a), the Borrower shall prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with Section
2.13(e) in an aggregate principal amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended; provided, however, that in the event the Leverage Ratio at the end of such fiscal year was less than 3.5 to 1.00
and greater than or equal to 3:00 to 1.00 then such amount shall be reduced to 25% of such Excess Cash Flow and in the event the Leverage Ratio at the end of such fiscal year was less than 3.00 to 1.00, no such prepayment shall be required.

  
 (d) In the event that any Loan Party or any subsidiary of a
Loan Party shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance of Disqualified Preferred Stock or the issuance or other disposition of Indebtedness for money borrowed (or any similar transaction evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes or similar
instruments) of any Loan Party or any subsidiary of a Loan Party (other than Disqualified Preferred Stock or Indebtedness for money borrowed (or any similar transaction evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes or similar instruments) permitted pursuant
to Section 6.1, except for Indebtedness incurred under Section 6.1(p) for which a mandatory prepayment shall be required to the extent such Indebtedness exceeds $25,000,000 at any time), the Borrower shall, substantially simultaneously with (and in
any event not later than the third Business Day next following) the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by such Loan Party or such subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with
Section 2.13(e). 
  
 (e) Mandatory prepayments of outstanding Term
Loans under this Agreement shall be allocated ratably between the Term Loans and the Other Term Loans, if any, and shall be applied first, in chronological order to the installments of principal in respect of the Term Loans and Other Term
Loans scheduled to be paid within 12 months after such mandatory prepayment and second, pro rata against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans and Other Term Loans under Section 2.11. Upon the
prepayment in full of all Term Loans, mandatory prepayments shall be applied to prepay Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof and to permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments by the amount of such prepayment. 
  
 (f) The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of
each prepayment required under this Section 2.13, (i) a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and (ii) to the extent practicable, at least three
days prior written notice of such prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid. All prepayments of Borrowings
under this Section 2.13 shall be subject to Section 2.15, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty. 
  
 SECTION 2.14. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall
impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any Lender or the Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected
in the Eurodollar Rate) or shall impose on such Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, and the
result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or increase the cost to any Lender of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or purchasing or
maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), in each case, by an amount deemed by such Lender or the Issuing
Bank to be material, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered. 
  

 35 

 (b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital
adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this
Agreement or the Loans made or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by such Lender pursuant hereto or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such
Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing
Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or the Issuing Bank to be material, then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
  
 (c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or
the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank the amount
shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 10 days after its receipt of the same. 
  
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or
receivable or reduction in return on capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate any
Lender or the Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) above with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period ending prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such request if such Lender or the Issuing Bank knew or could
reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions;
provided, further, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period. The protection of this Section shall be
available to each Lender and the Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed. 
  
 SECTION 2.15. Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss or expense that such Lender may
sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of
any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan, or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other than on the
last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (iii) any Eurodollar Loan to be made by such Lender (including any Eurodollar Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such
Loan shall have been given by the Borrower hereunder (any of the events referred to in this clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”) or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment required to be made hereunder. In
the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from
the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not
utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period, but such loss shall not, in any event, include any lost profit or loss of applicable margin. A certificate of any Lender setting 

  

 36 

 
forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. 
  
 SECTION 2.16. Pro Rata
Treatment. Each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the Commitment Fees or the L/C Participation Fees, each reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the
Revolving Credit Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such
Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements, as applicable). Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion
of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount. 
  
 SECTION 2.17. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall,
through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising
from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loan or L/C
Disbursement as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements shall be proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of any other Lender, it shall be
deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans and L/C Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid amount
of the Loans and L/C Exposure and participations in Loans and L/C Exposure held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure then outstanding as the amount of its Loans and L/C Exposure
prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided,
however, that if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.17 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the
extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest. The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed
to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to
the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
  
 SECTION
2.18. Payments. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 12:00 (noon), New
York City time, on the date when due and in immediately available funds, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment (other than (i) Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank, and (ii) principal of and
interest on Swingline Loans, which shall be paid directly to the Swingline Lender except as otherwise provided in Section 2.21(d)) shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office, or at such other location as the Administrative Agent
shall notify the Borrower from time to time in accordance with Section 9.1. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt
thereof. 
  
 (b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other 

  

 37 

 
Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day,
and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable. 
  
 SECTION 2.19. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Loan Party hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, that if the Borrower or any Loan Party shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such
payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as the case may
be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower or such Loan Party shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower or such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document
(including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (other than penalties or interest
attributable to (i) a failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, in making such written demand to the Borrower or (ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as
applicable), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a
Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  
 (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (and in any event within 30 days of any such payment being due) by the
Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return
reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located,
or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and reasonably requested by
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law and reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without
withholding or at a reduced rate. 
  
 SECTION 2.20. Assignment
of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. (a) In the event (i) any Lender or the Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount
to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank 

  

 38 

 
pursuant to Section 2.19, (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification
of any Loan Document requested by the Borrower that requires the consent of all Lenders and such amendment, waiver or other modification is consented to by the Required Lenders, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including with
respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.4(b)), upon notice to such Lender or the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or the Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse,
representation or warranty, except as to warranty as to its ownership of the assigned obligations (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.4), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an
assignee that shall assume such assigned obligations and, with respect to clause (iv) above, shall consent to such requested amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment); provided that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned, of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, and (z) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the affected
Lender or the Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or L/C Disbursements of such Lender or the Issuing Bank plus all Fees
and other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (including any amounts under Section 2.14 and Section 2.15); provided, further, that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances
or event that resulted in such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.19, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender or the Issuing Bank to suffer increased
costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.19, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or the Issuing Bank
pursuant to paragraph (b) below), or if such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.14 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.19
in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification, as the case may be, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and
assignment hereunder. 
  
 (b) If (i) any Lender or the Issuing
Bank shall request compensation under Section 2.14 or (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank, pursuant to Section 2.19,
then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not require such Lender or the Issuing Bank to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its internal
policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be significant) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower or (y) to assign its rights and delegate and
transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.19, as the case may
be, in the future. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the Issuing Bank in connection with any such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer. 
  
 SECTION 2.21. Swingline Loans. (a) Swingline Commitment.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower from time to time prior to the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, in an aggregate principal amount at any time
outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $10,000,000 or (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, that the
Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to 

  

 39 

 
the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans. 
  
 (b) Swingline Loan Borrowing Procedure. To request a Swingline Loan,
the Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or telecopy, a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan.
Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Swingline Loan. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan
available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement as provided in Section
2.22(e), by remittance to the Issuing Bank) by 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. The Borrower shall not request a Swingline Loan if at the time of or immediately after giving effect to the Borrowing
contemplated by such request a Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom. Swingline Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of $250,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 above such amount. 
  
 (c) Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from
time to time to repay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written notice to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent before 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the proposed date of repayment. 
  
 (d) Participations. The Swingline Lender may at any time in its
discretion by written notice given to the Administrative Agent (provided, such notice requirement shall not apply if the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent are the same entity) not later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the
next succeeding Business Day following such notice require the Revolving Credit Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of
Swingline Loans in which Revolving Credit Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Credit Lender, specifying in such notice such Revolving Credit
Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of
the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant
to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made
without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (so long as such payment shall not cause such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment). Each Revolving Credit Lender shall
comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.2(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.2 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the
payment obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any
participations in any Swingline Loan acquired by the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any
amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted
to the Administrative Agent. Any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph, as their

  

 40 

 
interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the
payment thereof. 
  
 SECTION 2.22. Letters of Credit. (a)
General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit for its own account or the account of a Subsidiary in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent
and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time while the Revolving Credit Commitments remain in effect (provided, that the Borrower shall be a co-applicant, and be jointly and severally liable, with respect to each Letter of Credit
issued for the account of a Subsidiary). The Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, and the Borrower shall not request the issuance of, any Letter of Credit at any time if after giving effect to such issuance, the L/C Exposure would exceed
the L/C Commitment or the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter
of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
  
 (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain
Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing
so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) an L/C Request to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. on the third Business Day preceding the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (or such later
date and time as is acceptable to the Issuing Bank). 
  
 A request for an initial
issuance of a Letter of Credit shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Issuing Bank: 
  
 (i) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); 
  
 (ii) the amount thereof; 
  
 (iii) the expiry date thereof (which shall not be later than
the close of business on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date); 
  
 (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; 
  
 (v) whether the Letter of Credit is to be issued for its own account or for the account of a Subsidiary (provided, that the
Borrower shall be a co-applicant, and therefore jointly and severally liable, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Subsidiary); 
  
 (vi) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder; 
  
 (vii) the full text of any certificate to be presented by
such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder; and 
  
 (viii) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may require. 
  

 41 

 A request for an amendment, renewal or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit shall specify in form and detail
satisfactory to the Issuing Bank: 
  
 (i) the
Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended; 
  
 (ix) the proposed date of amendment, renewal or extension thereof (which shall be a Business Day); 
  
 (x) the nature of the proposed amendment, renewal or extension; and 
  
 (xi) such other matters as the Issuing Bank may require. 
  
 Subject to the last sentence of Section 2.22(a), if requested by the Issuing Bank, the
Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and, upon issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the L/C Exposure shall not exceed the L/C Commitment
and (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Unless the Issuing Bank shall agree otherwise, no Letter of Credit shall be in an initial amount less than $100,000. 
  
 (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to
the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date which is one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the Letter of
Credit Expiration Date. 
  
 (d) Participations. By the
issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably grants to each Revolving Credit
Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter
of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Revolving Credit Lender’s
Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.22(e), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each
Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever,
including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding
or reduction whatsoever. 
  
 (e) Reimbursement. 

 
 (i) If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement
in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement by paying to the Issuing Bank an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such L/C Disbursement is made
if the Borrower shall have received notice of such L/C Disbursement prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 2:00 p.m., New

  

 42 

 
York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice. 
  
 (ii) If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due,
the Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Credit
Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Credit
Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any day, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata
Percentage of the unreimbursed L/C Disbursement in the same manner as provided in Section 2.2(c) with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender, and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so
received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the Borrower pursuant to the above paragraph prior to the time that any Revolving Credit Lender makes
any payment pursuant to the preceding sentence and any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made such
payments and to the Issuing Bank, as appropriate 
  
 (iii) If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, each of such Revolving Credit Lender and the Borrower severally agrees to pay
interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with the foregoing to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at
(i) in the case of the Borrower, the rate per annum set forth in Section 2.22(h) and (ii) in the case of such Lender, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation.

  
 (f) Obligations Absolute. The Reimbursement Obligation
of the Borrower as provided in Section 2.22(e) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein; (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit being proved to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that fails to comply with the terms of such
Letter of Credit; (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.22, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff
against, the obligations of the Borrower hereunder; (v) the fact that a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; or (vi) any material adverse change in the business, property, results of operations, prospects or condition, financial or
otherwise, of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. None of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or any of their Affiliates shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of
Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or
other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing
Bank; provided, that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to 

  

 43 

 
consequential 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 the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and
without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank 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. 
  
 (g)
Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly give written notice to the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the
Borrower of its Reimbursement Obligation to the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement (other than with respect to the timing of such Reimbursement Obligation set forth in Section 2.22(e)).

  
 (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make
any L/C Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest payable on demand, for each day from and including the date such
L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such L/C Disbursement, at the rate per annum determined pursuant to Section 2.7. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing
Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to Section 2.22(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 
  
 (i) Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may
resign as Issuing Bank hereunder at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank or any such additional Issuing Bank. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall
become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c). From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement or addition, as applicable, (i) the
successor or additional Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank”
shall be deemed to refer to such successor or such addition or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor or such addition and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Bank
hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or
replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. If at any time there is more than one Issuing Bank hereunder, the Borrower may, in its discretion, select which Issuing Bank is to issue any particular Letter of Credit.

  

 44 

 (j) 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, Revolving Credit Lenders with L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure)
demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account (the “L/C Sub-Account”) established by the Administrative Agent and maintained in the name of the Administrative Agent and
for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 105% of the L/C Exposure 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 paragraph (g) or (h) of Article VII.
Funds in the L/C Sub-Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held as collateral security for the
satisfaction of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders with L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure), be
applied to satisfy other Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. 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 plus any accrued
interest or realized profits with respect to such amounts (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. 
  
 (k) Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrower may, at any time and from
time to time, designate one or more additional Revolving Credit Lenders to act as an Issuing Bank under the terms of this Agreement, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Issuing Bank
and such Revolving Credit Lender(s). Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph (k) shall be deemed (in addition to being a Revolving Credit Lender) to be the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued or to be
issued by such Revolving Credit Lender, and all references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall, with respect to such Letters of Credit, be deemed to refer to such Revolving Credit Lender in its capacity
as Issuing Bank, as the context shall require. 
  
 (l) The Issuing
Bank shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: 
  
 (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to the Issuing
Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit
generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in
effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; or 
  
 (ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one
or more policies of the Issuing Bank. 
  
 The Issuing Bank shall
be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not
accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. 
  

 45 

 SECTION 2.23. Increase in Term Loan Commitments. (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the
Administrative Agent, from time to time, request Incremental Term Loan Commitments in an amount not to exceed the Incremental Term Loan Amount from one or more Incremental Term Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such
Incremental Term Loans in their own discretion; provided, that (i) before submitting any such request to a person that is not a Lender, the Borrower shall first give each existing Lender the opportunity to provide such Incremental Term Loan
Commitments (in which case, existing Lenders shall have no more than two (2) Business Days from the date of such notice to indicate whether they are willing to provide such Incremental Term Loans) and (ii) each Incremental Term Lender, if not
already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments being requested (which
shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Term Loan Amount), (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not
be less than 10 Business Days after the date of such notice) and (iii) whether such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are to be Term Loan Commitments or commitments to make term loans with terms different from the Term Loans (“Other Term
Loans”). 
  
 (b) The Borrower and each Incremental Term
Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such
Incremental Term Lender. Each Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the Incremental Term Loans to be made thereunder; provided, that, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, (i) the final
maturity date of any Other Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date and (ii) the average life to maturity of any Other Term Loans shall be no shorter than the average life to maturity of the Term Loans; and provided,
further, that, if the interest rate margin in respect of any Other Term Loan would exceed the Applicable Percentage for the Term Loans by more than 0.25% (it being understood that any such increase may take the form of original
issue discount (“OID”), with OID being equated to the interest rates in a manner determined by the Administrative Agent based on an assumed four-year life to maturity), the Applicable Percentage for the Term Loans shall be increased
so that the interest rate margin in respect of such Other Term Loan (giving effect to any OID issued in connection with such Other Term Loan) is no more than 0.25% higher than the Applicable Percentage for the Term Loans. The Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement, this Agreement
shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment evidenced thereby as provided for in Section 9.8(b). Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in
writing by the Administrative Agent with the Borrower’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and furnished to the other parties hereto. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.23 unless (i) on the date of such
effectiveness, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.1 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower,
(ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received (with sufficient copies for each of the Incremental Term Lenders) legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates and documentation consistent with those delivered on the Closing
Date under Section 4.2, (iii) the Borrower would be in Pro Forma Compliance after giving effect to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the Loans to be made thereunder and the application of the proceeds therefrom as if made and applied on such
date and (iv) the Leverage Ratio shall be less than 4:00 to 1:00 on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the Loans to be made thereunder and such additional 

  

 46 

 
Indebtedness (if any) as if such Loans and additional Indebtedness were outstanding, and the proceeds thereof applied as set forth in a notice from the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent, on the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower; provided, that if such Loans are used along with additional Indebtedness permitted hereunder to finance a Permitted Acquisition
pursuant to Section 6.4(g), the computation of the Leverage Ratio under this clause (iv) shall be made without regard to such additional Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated herein, the proceeds of Incremental Term Loans and
Other Term Loans may not be used to pay cash dividends. 
  
 (d)
Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Term Loans (other than Other Term Loans), when originally made, are included in each
Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans on a pro rata basis, and the Borrower agrees that Section 2.15 shall apply to any conversion of Eurodollar Term Loans to ABR Term Loans reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to effect the foregoing. In
addition, to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are not Other Term Loans, the scheduled amortization payments under Sections 2.11(a) required to be made after the making of such Incremental Term Loans shall be ratably increased by the aggregate
principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans. 
  
 SECTION 2.24.
Increase in Revolving Credit Commitments. (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, on one occasion only, request Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments in an amount not to exceed $12,000,000 from one or more
Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Revolving Loans in their own discretion; provided, that each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender, if not already a Lender
hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments being requested (which shall be
in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $1,000,000) and (ii) the date on which such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days after the date of such
notice). 
  
 (b) The Borrower and each Incremental Revolving
Credit Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Revolving Loan Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitment of such Incremental Revolving Credit Lender. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Revolving Loan Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon
the effectiveness of any Incremental Revolving Loan Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment evidenced
thereby as provided for in Section 9.8(b). Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with the Borrower’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and furnished to the other parties hereto. 

 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.24 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.1 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a
certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower, (ii) if such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are to become effective more than 30 days after the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent shall
have received (with sufficient copies for each of the Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders) legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates and documentation consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.2, and
(iii) the Borrower would be in Pro Forma Compliance after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Credit 

  

 47 

 
Commitment and the Loans to be made thereunder and the application of the proceeds therefrom as if made and applied on such date. 
  
 (d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent
may take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Revolving Loans, when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis, and the Borrower agrees that Section
2.15 shall apply to any conversion of Eurodollar Revolving Loans to ABR Revolving Loans reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to effect the foregoing.

 SECTION 3.4. Governmental Approvals. Except as set forth on Schedule
3.4, no action, consent or approval of, registration or filing with or any other action by any Governmental Authority is or will be required in connection with the Transactions, except for (a) the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing
statements and filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, (b) the recordation of any Mortgages, (c) such as have been made or obtained and are in full force and effect or which are not material

 48 

 
those approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations or other actions, notices or filings, the failure of which to obtain or make could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 SECTION 3.5.
Financial Statements. (a) The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders (i) the consolidated balance sheet and related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries
as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, audited by and accompanied by the unqualified opinion of Ernst & Young LLP, independent public accountants and (ii) the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related statements of
operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004. Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial condition and results of operations and cash flows of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.5(a), such balance sheets and the notes thereto disclose all
material liabilities, direct or contingent, of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates thereof. Such financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis, except that the unaudited financial
statements are subject to normal year-end adjustments and do not contain notes thereto.  
  
 (b) The Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Lenders the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and related statements of operations,
stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries as of and for the six months ending June 30, 2004, prepared giving effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on such date. Such pro forma financial
statements have been prepared in good faith by the Borrower, based on the assumptions used to prepare the pro forma financial information contained in the Confidential Information Memorandum (which assumptions are believed by the Borrower on the
date hereof and on the Closing Date to be reasonable), are based on the best information available to the Borrower as of the date of delivery thereof, accurately reflect, in all material respects, all adjustments required to be made to give effect
to the Transactions and present fairly, in all material respects, on a pro forma basis the estimated consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries as of such date and for such periods, assuming that the
Transactions had actually occurred at such date or at the beginning of such period, as the case may be. 
  
 SECTION 3.6. No Material Adverse Change. No event, change or condition has occurred that has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a
material adverse effect on the business, operations, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, since December 31, 2003. 
  
 SECTION 3.7. Title to Properties; Possession Under Leases. (a) The
Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its material properties and material assets, except for minor defects in title that do not materially interfere with its ability to conduct
its business or to utilize such assets for their intended purposes and Liens permitted by Section 6.2 and except where the failure to have such title could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect. All such material properties and assets are free and clear of Liens, other than Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.2. 
  
 (b) The use by the Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries of such Collateral and all such rights with respect to the foregoing do not infringe on the
rights of any person other than such infringement which could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No claim has been made and remains outstanding that the Borrower’s or any
Subsidiaries’ use of any Collateral does or may violate the rights of any third party that could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  

 49 

 (c) The Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries has complied with all material obligations due and payable
or required to be performed under all material leases to which it is a party and all such material leases are in full force and effect. The Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession under all such leases,
except where the failure to so enjoy could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Copyrights, technology, trade secrets, proprietary information, domain names, know-how and processes necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted (the “Intellectual Property”), except for those the failure to own
or license which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No claim has been asserted in writing and is pending by any person challenging or questioning the use of any such
Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does the Borrower or any Subsidiary know of any valid basis for any such claim, which claim is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. The use
of such Intellectual Property by the Borrower and each Subsidiary does not infringe the rights of any person, except for such claims and infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. 
  
 (e) Except pursuant to licenses and other user
agreements entered into by the Borrower or any Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business, on and as of the date hereof (i) the Borrower and each Subsidiary owns and possesses the right to use, and has done nothing to authorize or enable any
other person to use, any of its Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks and (ii) all registrations listed in Schedule III to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement are valid and in full force and effect, in each case, except for any failure which could
not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Borrower or such Subsidiary with respect to any of its Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks, respectively, pledged by it under the name of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, (ii) the Borrower or such Subsidiary is not infringing upon
any Copyright, Patent or Trademark of any other person other than, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), such violation or infringement that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and
(iii) no proceedings have been instituted or are pending against the Borrower or such Subsidiary or threatened, and no claim against such the Borrower or such Subsidiary has been received by the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be,
alleging any such violation, except any violations which could not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 SECTION 3.8. Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.8 sets forth as of the Closing Date a list of all Subsidiaries and the
percentage ownership interest of the Borrower and any Subsidiary therein. The shares of Equity Interests so indicated on Schedule 3.8 are owned by the Borrower, directly or indirectly, free and clear of all Liens (other than Liens created under the
Security Documents). 
  
 SECTION 3.9. Litigation; Compliance
with Laws. (a) There are not any actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity or by or before any Governmental Authority now pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any
business, property or rights of any such person (i) that involve any Loan Document or the Transactions or (ii) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected,
individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  

 50 

 (b) None of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries or any of their respective material properties or
material assets is in violation of, nor will the continued operation of their material properties and material assets as currently conducted violate, any law, rule or regulation (including any zoning, building, Environmental Law, ordinance, code or

manner under any provision of any indenture or other agreement or instrument evidencing Indebtedness, or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets are or may be bound, where such
default could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 SECTION 3.11. Federal Reserve Regulations. (a) None of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose
of buying or carrying Margin Stock. 
  
 (b) No part of the
proceeds of any Loan or any Letter of Credit will be used, whether directly or indirectly, and whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately, for any purpose that entails a violation of, or that is inconsistent with, the provisions of the
Regulations of the Board, including Regulation T, U or X. 
  
 SECTION 3.12. Investment Company Act; Public Utility Holding Company Act. None of the Borrower or any Subsidiary is (a) an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of
1940 or (b) a “holding company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. 
  
 SECTION 3.13. Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans (other than any Incremental Term Loans) and will request the
issuance of Letters of Credit only for the purposes specified in Section 5.8. The Borrower will use the proceeds of any Incremental Term Loans solely as set forth in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 3.14. Tax Returns. Each of the Borrower and each of the
Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed all Federal and all material state, local and foreign tax returns or materials required to have been filed by it and has paid or caused to be paid all material taxes due and payable by it and all
assessments received by it, except taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as applicable, shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves and except for taxes the
nonpayment of which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 SECTION 3.15. No Material Misstatements. None of (a) the Confidential Information Memorandum or (b) any other information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule furnished by or on behalf of the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of any Loan Document or included therein or delivered pursuant thereto contained, which, in the case of clauses (a) and (b), when taken as a whole and together
with the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, contains or will contain any material misstatement of fact or omitted, omits or will omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were, are or will be made, not misleading; provided, that to the 

  

 51 

 
extent any such information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule was based upon or constitutes a forecast or projection, the Borrower represents
only that it acted in good faith and utilized reasonable assumptions and due care in the preparation of such information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule and it is understood that actual results may differ from forecasts and
projections. 
  
 SECTION 3.16. Employee Benefit Plans. With
respect to any Plan, each of the Borrower and each of its ERISA Affiliates is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder. No ERISA Event
has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has (a) failed to comply with

of business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. 
  
 SECTION
3.19. Security Documents. (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, upon execution and delivery thereof by the parties thereto, will create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid
and enforceable security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) and the proceeds thereof and (i) when the Pledged Collateral (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) is delivered to the
Administrative Agent, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected first priority Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Pledged Collateral, in each case prior and
superior in right to any other person, and (ii) when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a), the Lien created under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement will constitute a fully perfected
Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in all such Collateral as to which a security interest may be perfected by such a filing (other than Intellectual Property, as defined in the Guarantee and

 (b) Upon the recordation of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright
Office, together with the financing statements in appropriate form filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a), the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and
interest of the Loan Parties in the Intellectual Property (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral 

  

 52 

 
Agreement) in which a security interest may be perfected by filing in the United States and its territories and possessions, in each case prior and superior
in right to any other person (it being understood that subsequent recordings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office may be necessary to perfect a Lien on registered Trademarks, trademark applications,
Patents, patent applications and Copyrights acquired by the Loan Parties after the date hereof). 
  
 (c) The Mortgages are effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and
enforceable Lien on all of the Loan Parties’ right, title and interest in and to the Mortgaged Property thereunder and the proceeds thereof, and when the Mortgages are recorded in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(c), the Mortgages shall
constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Mortgaged Property and the proceeds thereof, in each case prior and superior in right to any other person, other than with
respect to the rights of persons pursuant to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.2.

domestic real property leased by the Borrower and the Subsidiaries and the addresses thereof. The Borrower and the Subsidiaries, as the case may be, as of the Closing Date, have valid leasehold interests in all the real property set forth on
Schedule 3.20(b). 
  
 SECTION 3.21. Labor Matters. As of
the date hereof and the Closing Date, there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against the Borrower or any Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right
of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is bound. Except to the extent any of the following, individually or in the aggregate, could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (a) the hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries have not been in violation in any material respect of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other
applicable Federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters and (b) all payments due from the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or for which any claim may be made against the Borrower or any Subsidiary, on account of wages and employee
health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Borrower or such Subsidiary. 
  
 SECTION 3.22. Solvency. Immediately after the consummation of the Transactions to occur on the Closing Date and immediately following the making of
each Loan and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of each Loan (including the making of the 2004 Dividend), (a) the fair value of the assets of the Loan Parties taken as a whole, at a fair valuation, will exceed their debts and
liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of the Loan Parties taken as a whole will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of their debts and other
liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) the Loan Parties taken as a whole will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as
such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (d) the Loan Parties taken as a whole will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which they are engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed
to be conducted following the Closing Date. 
  
 SECTION 3.23.
Certain Treasury Regulation Matters. The Borrower does not intend to treat the Loans and related transactions as being a “reportable” transaction (within the meaning of Treasury 

  

 53 

 
Regulation 1.6011-4). The Borrower acknowledges that the Administrative Agent and one or more of the Lenders may treat its Loans as part of a transaction
that is subject to Treasury Regulation Section 301.6112-1 to the extent that the Borrower’s application of the proceeds of the Loans requires the same and the Administrative Agent and such Lender or Lenders, as applicable, may, in connection
therewith, maintain such lists and other records as they may determine is required by such Treasury Regulation. 
  
 SECTION 3.24. Foreign Assets Control Regulations, Etc. None of the requesting or borrowing of the Loans, the requesting or issuance, extension or
renewal of any Letters of Credit or the use of the proceeds of any thereof will violate the Trading With the Enemy Act (50 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., as amended) (the “Trading With the Enemy Act”) or any of the foreign assets control
regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) (the “Foreign Assets Control Regulations”) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto (which for the avoidance of
doubt shall include, but shall not be limited to (a) Executive Order 13224 of September 21, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism (66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (2001)) (the
“Executive Order”) and (b) the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56)). To the knowledge of the Borrower, neither the Borrower
nor any of its Subsidiaries (a) is a “blocked person” as described in the Executive Order, the Trading With the Enemy Act or the Foreign Assets Control Regulations or (b) engages transactions with any such “blocked person”
blocked by such order, law or regulation.

times, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 SECTION 5.2. Insurance. (a) Keep its insurable properties adequately
insured at all times by financially sound and reputable insurers; maintain such other insurance, to such extent and against such risks, including fire and other risks insured against by extended coverage, as is customary with companies in the same
or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations, including public liability insurance against claims for personal injury or death or property damage occurring upon, in, about or in connection with the use of any properties owned,
occupied or controlled by it; and maintain such other insurance as may be required by law. 
  
 (b) Cause all such policies covering any Collateral to be endorsed or otherwise amended to include a customary lender’s loss payable endorsement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent,
which endorsement shall provide that, from and after the Closing Date, if the insurance carrier shall have received written notice from the Administrative Agent of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the insurance carrier shall pay all proceeds
otherwise payable to the Borrower or the Loan Parties under such policies directly to the Administrative Agent; cause all such policies to provide that neither the Borrower, the Administrative Agent nor any other party shall be a coinsurer
thereunder and to contain a “Replacement Cost Endorsement”, without any deduction for depreciation, and such other provisions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require from time to time to protect their interests; deliver
insurance certificates evidencing all such policies to the Administrative Agent; upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, deliver original or certified copies of all such policies to the Administrative Agent upon its request; cause each such
policy to provide that it shall not be canceled, modified or not renewed (i) by reason of nonpayment of premium upon not less than 10 days’ prior written notice thereof by the insurer to the Administrative Agent (giving the Administrative Agent
the right to cure defaults in the payment of premiums) or (ii) for any other reason upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice thereof by the insurer to the Administrative Agent; deliver to the Administrative Agent, prior to the
cancellation, modification or nonrenewal of any such policy of insurance, evidence of a renewal or replacement policy (or other evidence of renewal of a policy previously delivered to the Administrative Agent) together with evidence satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent of payment of the premium therefor. 
  
 (c) If at any time the area in which any of the Premises (as defined in the Mortgages) are located is designated (i) a “flood hazard area” in any Flood Insurance Rate Map published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or
any successor agency), obtain flood insurance in an amount not less than the outstanding principal amount of the indebtedness secured by any Mortgage for Premises located in a “flood hazard area” and that is otherwise, if applicable, the
minimum coverage necessary to comply with the National Flood Insurance Program as set forth in the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as it may be amended from time to time, or (ii) a “Zone 1” area, obtain earthquake insurance in such
total amount as is prudent in the good faith judgment of the Borrower, but in any event in an amount not less than the outstanding principal amount of the indebtedness secured by any Mortgage for Premises located in a “Zone 1” area.

  
 (d) With respect to any Mortgaged Property, carry and maintain
comprehensive general liability insurance including a “broad form” commercial general liability endorsement and coverage on an occurrence basis against claims made for personal injury (including bodily injury, death and property damage)

contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained under this Section 5.2 is taken out by the Borrower; and promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent a duplicate original copy of such policy or policies. 
  
 (f) In the event there occurs any material loss, damage to or destruction of
any tangible property or assets of any Loan Party or any part thereof, cause such Loan Party to promptly give written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent generally describing the nature and extent of such loss, damage or destruction.
Subsequent to any loss, damage to or destruction of the tangible property or assets of any Loan Party or any part thereof, Borrower shall, or shall cause such other Loan Party to, whether or not the insurance proceeds, if any, received on account of
such damage or destruction shall be sufficient for that purpose, at such Loan Party’s cost and expense, promptly repair or replace such property or assets so lost, damaged or destroyed or purchase other productive assets used or useful in the
business of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that such Loan Party need not repair or replace such property or assets so lost, damaged or destroyed to the extent the failure to make such repair or replacement is not
necessary in the good faith judgment of the Borrower for the proper conduct of the business of such Loan Party in the ordinary course. 
  
 (g) Authorize the Administrative Agent, as the attorney-in-fact of each of the Loan Parties and for the benefit of the Lenders, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, without the consent of the applicable Loan Party, (i) to adjust and compromise proceeds payable under such insurance policies, (ii) to collect, receive and give receipts for such insurance proceeds in
the name of such Loan Party, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (iii) to endorse such Loan Party’s name upon any instrument in payment thereof 
  
 (h) In the event a Loan Party shall receive any insurance proceeds as a result of any loss, damage or destruction, or condemnation proceeds, in each case
in a net amount in excess of $2,000,000, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such other Loan Party to, promptly pay over such proceeds to the Administrative Agent as cash collateral for the Obligations. The Administrative Agent agrees to release such
proceeds to such Loan Party for replacement or restoration of the portion of the property or assets of such Loan Party lost, damaged or destroyed or condemned for the purchase of other assets used or useful in the business of the Borrower or its
Subsidiaries if (A) within one year (or if binding contracts for the repair, replacement or purchase have been entered into within such period, within the term of such contracts) from the date of such loss, damage, destruction or condemnation, the
Administrative Agent has received written application for such release from such Loan Party together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that the Borrower will use such proceeds to purchase productive assets used or useful in the business of
the Borrower or its Subsidiaries and (B) on the date of such release no Default or Event of Default exists. If the conditions in the preceding sentence are not met, the Administrative Agent shall, on the first Business Day subsequent to the date one
year (or such later date) after the date of such loss, damage, destruction or condemnation, apply such proceeds as a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in accordance with the terms of Section 2.13(b). All insurance and condemnation proceeds received
by a Loan Party shall be subject to the security interest of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. 
  
 SECTION 5.3. Taxes. Pay all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in respect of
its property, before the same shall become delinquent or in default; provided, however, that such payment and discharge shall not be required with respect to any such tax, assessment, charge or levy so long as (a) the validity or
amount thereof shall be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the Borrower shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP and such contest operates to suspend collection of the
contested obligation, tax, assessment or charge and enforcement of a Lien and, in the 

  

 59 

 
case of a Mortgaged Property, there is no risk of forfeiture of such property or (b) the nonpayment thereof could not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 SECTION 5.4. Financial Statements,
Reports, etc. In the case of the Borrower, furnish to the Administrative Agent (either physically or through electronic delivery reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent), which shall furnish to each Lender:

the financial condition and results of operations of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, subject to normal year-end audit adjustments;

firm, may be limited to accounting matters and disclaim responsibility for legal interpretations and which may be provided by a Financial Officer if accounting firms generally are not providing such certificates) (i) certifying that no Event of

Public Offering (disregarding for purposes of this Section 5.4(e) the Net Cash Proceeds dollar threshold contained in the definition of such term), distributed to its shareholders, as the case may be; 
  
 (f) promptly after the receipt thereof by the Borrower or

Borrower also agrees promptly to notify the Administrative Agent if any material portion of the Collateral is damaged or destroyed. 
  

 61 

 (b) In the case of the Borrower, each year, at the time of delivery of the annual financial statements
with respect to the preceding fiscal year pursuant to Section 5.4(a), deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer setting forth the information required pursuant to Sections 1 and 2 of the Perfection Certificate or
confirming that there has been no change in such information since the Closing Date or the date of the most recent certificate delivered pursuant to this Section 5.6. 
  
 SECTION 5.7. Maintaining Records; Access to Properties and Inspections. Keep proper books of record and account in
which full, true and correct entries in conformity with GAAP and all Requirements of Law are made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities. Each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its subsidiaries to, permit
any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to visit and inspect the financial records and the properties of the Borrower or any Subsidiary at reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested and to make extracts
from and copies of such financial records, and permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to discuss the affairs, finances and condition of the Borrower or any Subsidiary with the officers thereof and independent
accountants therefor. Except following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, the Borrower shall be entitled to have a representative present at all such discussions and to obtain a copy of all written requests for information
relating to any Loan Party made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any third party. Within 120 days after the close of each fiscal year of the Borrower, at the request of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, the Borrower will

whose sole or primary purpose is holding such Equity Interests, causing such holding company to guarantee the Obligations, to pledge its Equity Interests in the Borrower pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and to become subject to the
representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements of the Loan Parties hereunder, mutatis mutandis) that may be required under applicable law, or that the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order
to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and in order to grant, preserve, protect and perfect the validity and first priority (subject to Liens permitted under Section 6.2) of the security interests created or intended to be
created by the Security Documents. Unless a Release of Collateral Event has occurred and is continuing and the Borrower has exercised its rights under Section 9.18, the Borrower will cause any subsequently acquired or organized Domestic Subsidiary
to become a Loan Party by executing the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and each other applicable Security Document in favor of the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing sentence, despite the occurrence
and continuance of a Release of Collateral Event, the Borrower will cause the Equity Interests of (v) any 

  

 62 

 
subsequently acquired or organized Domestic Subsidiary, and (w) if the Equity Interests of the Borrower are held or acquired by any holding company whose

time to time, the Borrower will, at its cost and expense, promptly secure the Obligations by pledging or creating, or causing to be pledged or created, perfected security interests with respect to such of its assets and properties as the
Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders shall designate (it being understood that it is the intent of the parties that the Obligations shall be secured by substantially all the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries including real and
other properties acquired subsequent to the Closing Date (but excluding real property with a value of less than $1,000,000, leasehold real property not used for manufacturing, the leased manufacturing facility located in Muskegon, Michigan, other
immaterial leasehold property, and other Excluded Property (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement))). Such security interests and Liens will be created under the Security Documents and other security agreements, mortgages, deeds of
trust and other instruments and documents in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Lenders all such instruments and documents (including legal opinions, title
insurance policies and lien searches) as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence compliance with this Section 5.9. The Borrower agrees to provide such evidence as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the
perfection and priority status of each such security interest and Lien. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Borrower will give prompt notice to the Administrative Agent of the acquisition by it or any of the Domestic Subsidiaries of any real
property (or any interest in real property) having a value in excess of $1,000,000. The actions required under this Section 5.9 shall be taken within 30 days (or such later time as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) after the event
giving rise to the requirement to take such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the Administrative Agent in its discretion may determine not to take a security interest in those assets as to which the Administrative Agent shall determine, in
its reasonable discretion, that the cost of obtaining such Lien (including any mortgage, stamp, intangibles or other tax) are excessive in relation to the benefit to the Lenders of the security afforded thereby and (y) Liens required to be granted
pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall be subject to exceptions and limitations consistent with those set forth in the Security Documents as in effect on the Closing Date (to the extent appropriate in the applicable jurisdiction). 
  
 SECTION 5.10. Certain Treasury Regulation Matters. In the event the
Borrower determines to take any action inconsistent with its intention as set forth in the first sentence of Section 3.23, it will promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof. 
  
 SECTION 5.11. Hedging Agreements. In the case of the Borrower, within 90 days after the Closing Date, enter into, and
thereafter maintain, Hedging Agreements with one or more Lenders (or Affiliates thereof) to the extent necessary to provide that at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of Funded Debt of the Borrower outstanding on the Closing Date is subject
to either a fixed interest rate or interest rate protection for a period of not less than two years from the Closing Date, which Hedging Agreements shall have terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 SECTION 5.12. Environmental Laws. Except, in each case, as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect: 
  
 (a) Comply in all material respects with, and use reasonable efforts to ensure compliance in all material respects by all contractors, tenants and subtenants, if any, with, all applicable Environmental Laws, and
obtain and comply in all material respects with and maintain, and use reasonable efforts to ensure that all contractors, tenants and subtenants obtain and comply in all material respects with and maintain, any and all Environmental Permits required
of them by any applicable Environmental Laws. For purposes of this Section 5.12(a), noncompliance with the foregoing shall be deemed not to constitute 

  

 63 

 
a breach of this covenant, provided, that upon learning of any actual or suspected noncompliance, Borrower shall promptly undertake reasonable efforts
to achieve compliance. 
  
 (b) Conduct and
complete in all material respects all investigations, studies, sampling and testing, and all remedial, removal and other actions required to be undertaken by any Group Member under Environmental Laws and promptly comply with all orders and
directives applicable to any Group Member of all Governmental Authorities regarding Environmental Laws; provided, however, that this covenant shall be deemed not violated if the relevant Group Member promptly challenges in good faith
any such order or directive in a manner consistent with all applicable Environmental Laws and other Requirements of Law and pursues such challenge or challenges diligently. 
  
 (c) Generate, use, treat, store, release, dispose of, and otherwise manage Hazardous Materials in a manner
that would not reasonably be expected to result in a material Environmental Liability to any Group Member or to materially affect any real property owned or leased by any of them; and take reasonable efforts to prevent any other person from
generating, using, treating, storing, releasing, disposing of, or otherwise managing Hazardous Materials in a manner that could reasonably be expected to result in a material Environmental Liability to, or materially affect any real property owned
or operated by, any Group Member. For purposes of this Section 5.12(c), noncompliance with the foregoing shall be deemed not to constitute a breach of this covenant, provided, that, upon learning of any actual or suspected noncompliance, the
Borrower shall promptly undertake reasonable efforts to remove such Hazardous Materials, if required by applicable Environmental Law, or otherwise remediate them in a manner consistent with applicable Environmental Law. 
  
 (d) Maintain, update as appropriate, and implement in all
material respects an ongoing program reasonably designed to ensure that all the properties and operations of the Group Members are regularly and reasonably reviewed by competent professionals to identify and promote compliance with, and to
reasonably and prudently manage any Environmental Liabilities or potential Environmental Liabilities, under any Environmental Law that may affect any Group Member, including, without limitation, compliance and liabilities relating to: discharges to
air and water; acquisition, transportation, storage and use of hazardous materials; waste disposal; repair, maintenance and improvement of properties; employee health and safety; species protection; and recordkeeping. 
  
 (e) If required by applicable law or prudent in the
reasonable judgment of the Borrower, promptly take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to cure any material Environmental Liability, including the performance of any remediation as may be necessary. 
  
 (f) Deliver written notice to the Administrative Agent as
soon as practicable following receipt of all environmental audits, investigations, analyses and reports of any kind or character, and all written communications, with respect to any Environmental Liability that, individually or in the aggregate,
could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly deliver copies to the Administrative Agent of such environmental audits, investigations, analyses, reports and written
communications.

 77 

 (k) any Guarantee under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement for any reason shall cease to be in full

accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents); 
  
 (l) any
security interest in any material item of Collateral purported to be created by any Security Document shall cease to be, or shall be asserted by the Borrower or any other Loan Party not to be, a valid, perfected, first priority (except as otherwise
expressly provided in this Agreement or such Security Document) security interest in the securities, assets or properties covered thereby, except to the extent that any such loss of perfection or priority results from the failure of the
Administrative Agent to maintain possession of certificates representing securities pledged under the Pledge Agreement and except to the extent that such loss is covered by a lender’s title insurance policy and the related insurer shall not
have denied or disclaimed in writing that such loss is covered by such title insurance policy; or 
  
 (m) there shall have occurred a Change in Control; 
  
 then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h)(i)-(v) above), and at any time thereafter during the
continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate forthwith the
Commitments and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees
and all other liabilities of the Borrower accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by
the Borrower, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding; and in any event with respect to the Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h)(i)-(v) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and
the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Borrower accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and
payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VII, in the event that the
Borrower would otherwise fail to comply with the requirements of Sections 6.11 or 6.12 (each, a “Financial Performance Covenant”) at the end of any fiscal quarter, at any time within ten days after the date on which a Compliance
Certificate must be delivered for the end of such fiscal quarter or fiscal year, as applicable, the Borrower shall have the right, exercisable at any time during the term of this Agreement (provided that such right may not be exercised with respect
to more than two fiscal quarters during any consecutive four fiscal quarter period), to issue Permitted Cure Securities (as defined below) for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions to the capital of the Borrower (in any case, not in excess of
$25,000,000 in the aggregate in any consecutive four fiscal quarter period), and to contribute any such cash to the capital of Borrower (the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by the Borrower of such cash (the “Cure
Amount”) pursuant to the exercise by the Borrower of such Cure Right, the Financial Performance Covenants shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustments: 
  

	 	(i)	Consolidated EBITDA shall be increased solely for the purpose of measuring the Financial Performance Covenants and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal
to the Cure Amount; and 

  

 78 

	 	(ii)	if, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of all Financial Performance Covenants, the Borrower shall be
deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenants as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default
of any such Financial Performance Covenant that would have otherwise occurred on such date but for the application of the foregoing recalculations shall be deemed not to have occurred. 

  
 As used in this Article VII, the term “Permitted Cure Securities” shall mean
an equity security of the Borrower having no mandatory redemption, repurchase, repayment or similar requirements prior to the six-month anniversary of the Term Loan Maturity Date and upon which all dividends or distributions, at the election of the
Borrower, may be payable in additional shares of such equity security. 
  
 ARTICLE VIII 
 The Agents 
  
 SECTION 8.1. Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as an agent of such Lender under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, through its agents or employees, to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and
no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. 
  
 SECTION 8.2. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may
perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its
rights and powers through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their
respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent. 
  
 SECTION 8.3. Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or
exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as
shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.8), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to
Borrower or any Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.8) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have
knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by Borrower or a Lender, and no Agent shall be 

  

 79 

 
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document,
(ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv)
the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document. 
  
 SECTION 8.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by a
proper person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally and believed by it to be made by a proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other advisors selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or advisors. The
Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this
Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The
Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all
Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 
  
 SECTION 8.5. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event
of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that
the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by
the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such
action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. 
  
 SECTION 8.6. Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan
Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information
as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or
thereunder, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and
other documents expressly required 

  

 80 

 
to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 
  
 SECTION 8.7. Indemnification. The Lenders severally agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the
Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective outstanding Loans and Commitments in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 8.7 (or, if indemnification
is sought after the date upon which all Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such outstanding Loans and Commitments as in effect immediately prior to
such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans
and Reimbursement Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to
herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of
such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 8.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 8.8. Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a
Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 8.9. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required
Lenders shall have the right upon approval of the Borrower (whose approval shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default and shall not, in any event, be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor from among the
Lenders. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent
may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor, which successor shall be a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a
commercial banking institution, in each case, having combined capital and surplus of at least $250 million; provided, that if such retiring Administrative Agent is unable to find a commercial banking institution which is willing to accept
such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth above, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative
Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor shall be the same as those
payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and 

  

 81 

 
such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.5 shall continue
in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as the Administrative Agent. 
  
 SECTION 8.10. Co-Documentation Agents and Syndication Agent. The
parties hereto acknowledge that the Co-Documentation Agents and the Syndication Agent hold such titles in name only, and that such titles confer no additional rights or obligations relative to those conferred on any Lender hereunder. 
  
 ARTICLE IX

representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by
the Lenders and the Issuing Bank and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit by the Issuing Bank, regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or the Issuing Bank or on their behalf, and
shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any Fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is
outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not been terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.19 and 9.5 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or 

  

 82 

 
unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank. 
  
 SECTION 9.3. Binding
Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures
of each of the other parties hereto. 
  
 SECTION 9.4.
Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any affiliate of the Issuing Bank that
issues any Letter of Credit), except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without
such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of
the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the other Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
  
 (b) Any Lender shall have the right at any time to assign to one or more
banks, insurance companies, investment companies or funds or other institutions (other than the Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary thereof) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, that (A) except in the case of an assignment to an Approved Fund, a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment by UBS Loan Finance LLC or Goldman Sachs Credit Partners L.P.
or any of their respective Affiliates, the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Credit Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure, the
Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Borrower) must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (B) except in the case of an assignment to an Approved Fund, a Lender or an
Affiliate of a Lender, any assignment made prior to Completion of the Primary Syndication of the Commitment and Loans by the Arrangers or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of
the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000
unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (C) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that this clause (C) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of
Commitments or Loans, (D) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and (E) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender,
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire; and provided, further, that any consent of the Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required if a Default has occurred and is
continuing. 
  
 (c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof
pursuant to Section 9.4(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights
and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s 

  

 83 

 
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14,
2.15, 2.19 and 9.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.4 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such
rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.4(f). 
  
 (d)
The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive,
and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice
to the contrary. 
  
 (e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed
Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in
Section 9.4(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 9.4(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective
for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
  
 (f) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided, that (A) such Lender’s obligations
under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders
shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall
retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to Section 9.8(b) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 9.4(f)(ii), the Borrower
agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.19 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.4(b). To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender, provided, such Participant shall be subject to Section 9.6 as though it were a Lender. 
  
 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any
greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the
Borrower’s prior written consent. Any Participant that is a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.19(e). 
  
 (g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or
any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or 

  

 84 

 
assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, such Lender may, without the consent of Borrower or the Administrative Agent,
collaterally assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, including the Loans and Notes or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement, to any holder of, trustee for, or any other
representative of holders of, obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities. 
  
 (h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without
the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 9.4(b). Each of the Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit
Lender or join any other person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full
of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss,
cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. 
  
 SECTION 9.5. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay, promptly upon demand: 
  
 (i) costs and expenses incurred by the Arrangers, the
Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank, including the fees, charges and disbursements of Advisors for the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank, in connection
with the syndication of the Loans and Commitments, the preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the administration of the Loans and Commitments, the perfection and maintenance of the Liens securing the Collateral and any actual or
proposed amendment, supplement or waiver of any of the Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); 
  
 (ii) all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, including the fees, charges and disbursements of Advisors for the
Administrative Agent, in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding affecting the Collateral or any part thereof, in which action, suit or proceeding the Administrative Agent is made a party or participates or in which the right to use the
Collateral or any part thereof is threatened, or in which it becomes necessary in the judgment of the Administrative Agent to defend or uphold the Liens granted by the Security Documents (including any action, suit or proceeding to establish or
uphold the compliance of the Collateral with any Requirements of Law); 
  
 (iii) all costs and expenses incurred by the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of Advisors
for the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, incurred in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights under the Loan Documents, including its rights under
this Section 9.5(a), or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder and the collection of the Obligations, including all such costs and expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of the
Obligations; and 
  

 85 

 (iv) all documentary and similar taxes and charges in respect of the Loan Documents.

  
 For purposes of this Section 9.5(a), “Advisors” shall mean
legal counsel (including local counsel), auditors, accountants, consultants, appraisers or other advisors; provided, that (x) in the case of clause (i), the engagement of any Advisors other than legal counsel (including local counsel) shall
be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), the term “Advisors” shall include one firm of legal counsel plus any local or special counsel, and (y) in
the case of clause (iii), the engagement of any Advisors other than one firm of legal counsel by any Lender shall be subject to approval by the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agents, the Arrangers, each Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each
Related Party of any of the foregoing persons (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties, judgments, suits and
related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution, delivery, performance, administration or
enforcement of the Loan Documents, (ii) any actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any
Indemnitee is a party thereto, or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials, on, at, under or from any property owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party at any time, or any Environmental Liability
directly or indirectly related in any way to any Loan Party; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 
  
 (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to promptly pay any amount required to be paid by it to any Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section,
each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agents such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided, that the unreimbursed
expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent in its capacity as such. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, a Lender’s “pro rata
share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time. To the extent that the Borrower fails to promptly pay any amount required to be
paid by it to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to pay to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Revolving Credit
Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or
related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against any of the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, a Revolving Credit Lender’s “pro rata
share” shall be determined based upon its share of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure. 
  
 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of
liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions,
any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
  

 86 

 (e) The provisions of this Section 9.5 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of
the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, the release of all or any portion of the Collateral, the expiration of the Commitments,
the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Lender. All amounts
due under this Section 9.5 shall be payable on written demand therefor accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested. 
  
 SECTION 9.6. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent prohibited by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time
held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by
such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.6 are in addition to
other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
  
 SECTION 9.7. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT, OR IF NO SUCH LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS AND
PRACTICE FOR DOCUMENTARY CREDITS MOST RECENTLY PUBLISHED AND IN EFFECT, ON THE DATE SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT WAS ISSUED, BY THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE (THE “UNIFORM CUSTOMS”) OR, IF AGREED TO BY THE ISSUING BANK AND THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE INTERNATIONAL STANDBY PRACTICES, AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT GOVERNED BY THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS OR THE INTERNATIONAL STANDBY PRACTICES, AS APPLICABLE, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
  
 SECTION 9.8. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any
abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the
Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure
by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. No notice or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
  
 (b) Except as provided in paragraph (c) below, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof
or thereof may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent, with the consent
of the Required 

  

 87 

 
Lenders) (and, prior to the Completion of the Primary Syndication of the Commitments, the Arrangers) or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to
an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the written consent of the Required Lenders (and, prior to the Completion of the Primary
Syndication of the Commitments, the Arrangers); provided, however, that (x) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may enter into an amendment to effect the provisions of Section 2.23(b) or 2.24(b) upon the effectiveness of
any Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Incremental Revolving Loan Assumption Agreement, as the case may be (and any such amendment shall in any event be deemed to have occurred upon such effectiveness), and (y) no such agreement under
this Section 9.8(b) shall (i) decrease or forgive the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan or any date for reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, or
waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (ii) increase or extend the Commitment or decrease or extend
the date for payment of any Fees of or any other amount actually due and payable hereunder to any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the pro rata requirements of Sections 2.16 and 2.17, the provisions of
this Section, or release any Guarantor party to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (except as contemplated by this Agreement) or limit such Guarantor’s liability under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, without the prior written
consent of each Lender, (iv) change the provisions (including Sections 2.12 and 2.13 of this Agreement) of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of one Class
differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans of any other Class without the prior written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class, (v) release all or
a substantial portion of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents or alter the relative priorities of the Obligations entitled to the Liens of the Security Documents (except in connection with securing additional Obligations equally
and ratably with the other Obligations or as contemplated by Section 9.18), in each case without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) reduce the percentage contained in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” without the prior
written consent of each Lender (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 Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Credit Commitments on the date hereof) or (vii) without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, amend the definition of the term “Interest Period” in any way
which would permit Interest Periods to be in excess of six months; provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline
Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to
approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Commitments or Loans held or deemed held by
any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders). 
  
 SECTION 9.9. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or
participation in any L/C Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or participation in such L/C Disbursement 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 or participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable
in respect of such Loan or participation 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
or participation but were not payable as a result of the 

  

 88 

 
operation of this Section 9.9 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations or periods
shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 
  
 SECTION 9.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Syndication Letter
and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder
(including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any rights, remedies,
obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 
  
 SECTION 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH
OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG
OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11. 
  
 SECTION 9.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall
not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of
which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
  
 SECTION 9.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken
together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.3. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart
of this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 9.14. Headings. Article and
Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 9.15. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) The
Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court
from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties 

  

 89 

 
hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York
State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in
any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
  
 (b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action
or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an
inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
  
 (c) The Borrower irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.1. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any
other manner permitted by law. 
  
 SECTION 9.16.
Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, each other Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its
Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information
and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or quasi-regulatory authority (such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (iii) to the extent required by applicable
laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement of its rights hereunder
or thereunder, (v) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.16, to (A) any actual or prospective assignee or pledgee of or participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective obligations, (vi) with the consent of the
Borrower or (vii) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.16. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” shall mean all information received from the Borrower and
related to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that was available to the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure by the Borrower;
provided that, in the case of Information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as
provided in this Section 9.16 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 its own confidential
information. 
  
 SECTION 9.17. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender
hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act. 
  

 90 

 SECTION 9.18. Releases of Guarantees and Liens. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by Section 9.8) to take any action
requested by the Borrower having the effect of releasing any Collateral or guarantee obligations (i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in accordance
with Section 9.8 or (ii) under the circumstances described in paragraph (b) below. 
  
 (b) At such time as the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other obligations under the Loan Documents (other than obligations under or in respect of Hedging Agreements) shall have been paid in full, the
Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, and the Security Documents and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to
survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any person. 
  
 (c) Upon the occurrence of a Release of Collateral Event and provided that no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lenders agree, upon the request of and at the expense of the Borrower, to take such action as is necessary to release all Collateral other than Collateral consisting of Equity
Interests of the Borrower (if applicable) and its subsidiaries; provided, however, that if such Release of Collateral Event ceases to be continuing and in effect at any time, the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent may require
first priority security interests on the same categories of Collateral that was previously released, such security interests to be created and perfected within 30 days of notice from the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent to the Borrower.
The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation or to take such other action as is necessary to give effect to this Section 9.18. 
  

 91 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective
authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

identified on the signature page hereto (the “Assignee”), and the Assignee hereby purchases and assumes, without recourse, from the Assignor, effective as of the Effective Date of Assignment set forth below (but not prior to the
registration of the information contained herein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.4(d) of the Credit Agreement), the interests set forth below (the “Assigned Interest”) in the Assignor’s rights and obligations under the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Swingline Commitment, Revolving Commitment and the Term Loans, Other Term Loans, Swingline Loans, Revolving Loans and participations held by the Assignor in Letters of
Credit which are outstanding on the Effective Date of Assignment. From and after the Effective Date of Assignment (i) the Assignee, if it is not already a party to the Credit Agreement, shall be a party to and be bound by the provisions of the
Credit Agreement and, to the extent of the interests assigned by this Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder and under the Loan Documents and (ii) the Assignor shall, to the extent of the interests assigned
by this Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Credit Agreement. 
  
 2. The Assignor (i) represents and warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned hereby free and clear of any adverse
claim and that its Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Revolving Loans, without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption; (ii) except as set forth in (i)

 SECTION 2.2. Guarantee of Payment. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a
continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment when due and not of collection, without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties. Each of the
Guarantors waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to any security held for the payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of the
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in favor of the Borrower or any other person and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other
person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrower or against any 

  

 - 6 - 

 
other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right
of offset with respect thereto. 
  
 SECTION 2.3. No
Limitations, Etc. (a) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 7.15, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or
termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent
or any other Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or
provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement; (iii) the release of any security held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the Obligations or any of
them; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations; (v) the failure to perfect any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Secured Party as security for any of the Obligations; or
(vi) any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of
all the Obligations). Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration),
to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in its sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Obligations, all without affecting the
obligations of any Guarantor hereunder. 
  
 (b) To the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from
any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any security
held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with the Borrower or any other
Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Obligations have been fully
and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish
any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security. 
  
 SECTION 2.4. Reinstatement. Each of the Guarantors agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective
or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the
Borrower, any other Loan Party or otherwise. 
  

 - 7 - 

 SECTION 2.5. Agreement To Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation
of any other right that the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall
become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the applicable Secured Parties
in cash the amount of such unpaid Obligation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of
right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article VI. 
  
 SECTION 2.6. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s and each other
Loan Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that
none of the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks. 
  
 SECTION 2.7. Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this
Article II constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall
have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213. 
  
 SECTION 2.8. Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article II is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Obligations whenever arising. 
  
 SECTION 2.9. General Limitation on Obligations. In any action or
proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the
obligations of any Guarantor under Section 2.1 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 2.1,
then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid
and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. 
  
 ARTICLE III 
 Pledge of Securities 
  
 SECTION 3.1. Pledge. As security for the payment or performance, as
the case may be, in full of the Obligations, each Grantor hereby pledges to the Administrative Agent, its successors and assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, its successors and
assigns, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in, all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under (a) Equity Interests owned by it and listed on Schedule II and any other Equity Interests obtained in the

a schedule describing the securities, which schedule shall be attached hereto as Schedule II and made a part hereof; provided that failure to attach any such schedule hereto shall not affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged
Securities. Each schedule so delivered shall supplement any prior schedules so delivered. 
  
 SECTION 3.3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Grantors jointly and severally represent, warrant and covenant to and with the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, that:

issued and outstanding shares of each class of the Equity Interests of the issuer thereof represented by such Pledged Stock and includes all Equity Interests, debt securities and promissory notes required to be pledged hereunder; 
  
 (b) except for the security interests granted hereunder, each of the Grantors

otherwise, to be forthwith deposited with the Administrative Agent and pledged or assigned hereunder; 
  
 (c) except for restrictions and limitations imposed by the Loan Documents or securities laws generally, the Pledged Collateral (other than Pledged

by the Administrative Agent of rights and remedies hereunder; 
  
 (d) each of the Grantors (i) has the power and authority to pledge the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder in the manner hereby done or contemplated and (ii) will defend its title or interest thereto or therein against any and all
Liens (other than Liens created by this Agreement or as permitted by the Credit Agreement), however arising, of all persons whomsoever; 
  
 (e) no consent or approval of any Governmental Authority, any securities exchange or any other person was or is necessary to the validity of the pledge of
the Pledged Collateral effected hereby (other than such as have been obtained and are in full force and effect and except with respect to Pledged Collateral in the form of Equity Interests in joint ventures); 
  
 (f) by virtue of the execution and delivery by the Grantors of this
Agreement, when any Pledged Securities are delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement, the Administrative Agent will obtain a legal, valid and perfected first priority lien upon and security interest in such Pledged
Securities as security for the payment and performance of the Obligations; and

 SECTION 3.6. Voting Rights; Dividends and Interest,
etc. (a) Unless and until an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given the Grantors at least two Business Days’ notice of its intent to exercise its rights under this Agreement
(which notice shall be deemed to have been given immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Borrower under paragraph (g) or (h) of Article VII of the Credit Agreement): 
  
 (i) Each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise any and all
voting and/or other consensual rights and powers inuring to an owner of Pledged Securities or any part thereof for any purpose consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided,
however, that such rights and powers shall not be exercised in any manner that could materially and adversely affect the rights inuring to a holder of any Pledged Securities or the rights and remedies of any of the Administrative Agent or the

or other distributions that would constitute Pledged Stock or Pledged Debt Securities, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged Securities or received in
exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in redemption thereof, or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise, shall be and become part of the
Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor, shall not be commingled by such Grantor with any of its other funds or property but shall be held separate and apart therefrom, shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent
and shall be forthwith delivered to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement). 
  
 (b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Administrative Agent shall have notified (or shall be deemed to have

paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 3.6 shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal
or other distributions. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Grantor contrary to the

provisions of this Section 3.6 shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such
Grantor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Administrative Agent upon demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the Administrative Agent in an account to be established by the Administrative Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of

Default have been cured or waived, repay to each Grantor (without interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(iii) of this
Section 3.6 and that remain in such account. 
  
 (c) Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Administrative Agent shall have notified (or shall be deemed to have notified) the Grantors of the suspension of their rights under paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 3.6, then
all rights of any Grantor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 3.6, and the obligations of the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section
3.6, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that, unless
otherwise directed by the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights. 
  
 (d) Any notice given by the Administrative Agent to the Grantors exercising
its rights under paragraph (a) of this Section 3.6 (i) may be given by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing, (ii) may be given to one or more of the Grantors at the same or different times and (iii) may suspend the rights of the Grantors under

give additional notices from time to time suspending other rights so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Grantors hold any Commercial Tort Claim except as indicated on the Perfection Certificate. 
  
 SECTION 4.3. Covenants. (a) Each Grantor agrees to maintain, at its own cost and expense, such complete and accurate records with respect to the Article 9 Collateral as is prudent in the conduct of its
business, but in any event to include complete accounting records indicating all payments and proceeds received with respect to any part of the Article 9 Collateral, and, at such time or times as the Administrative Agent may request, to prepare and
deliver as soon as reasonably practicable to the Administrative Agent a duly certified schedule or schedules in form and detail satisfactory to the Administrative Agent showing the identity, amount and location of any and all Article 9 Collateral.

  
 (b) Each Grantor shall, at its own expense, take any and all
actions necessary to defend title to the Article 9 Collateral against all persons and to defend the Security Interest of the Administrative Agent in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien not expressly permitted pursuant
to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 (c) Each Grantor
agrees, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Administrative Agent may from time to time request to better assure, preserve,
protect and perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any fees and Taxes required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security Interest and the
filing of any financing statements (including fixture filings) or other documents in connection herewith or therewith. If any amount payable to any Grantor under or in connection with any of the Article 9 Collateral shall be or become evidenced by
any promissory note or other instrument in excess of $200,000 and the amount due and payable under such note or instrument shall be due and payable more than 90 days after the issuance of such note or instrument, such Grantor shall notify the
Administrative Agent of the 

  

 - 16 - 

 
existence of such note or instrument no later than the date of delivery of the next quarterly officer’s certificate required to be delivered pursuant to
Section 5.4(c) of the Credit Agreement, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such note or instrument, and such note or instrument shall, upon the request of the
Administrative Agent, be promptly pledged and delivered to the Administrative Agent, duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any amount payable to any Grantor under or in connection with
any of the Article 9 Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any promissory note or other instrument in excess of $1,500,000, such note or instrument shall be promptly pledged and delivered to the Administrative Agent, duly endorsed in a manner
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, with prompt notice thereof to the Grantors, to supplement this Agreement by supplementing Schedule III or adding additional schedules hereto to specifically
identify any asset or item that may, in the Administrative Agent’s judgment, constitute Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks; provided that any Grantor shall have the right, exercisable within 10 days after it has been notified by the
Administrative Agent of the specific identification of such Collateral, to advise the Administrative Agent in writing of any material inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by such Grantor hereunder with respect to such Collateral.
Each Grantor agrees that it will use its best efforts to take such action as shall be necessary in order that all representations and warranties hereunder shall be true and correct in all material respects with respect to such Collateral within 30
days after the date it has been notified by the Administrative Agent of the specific identification of such Collateral. 
  
 (d) The Administrative Agent and such persons as the Administrative Agent may designate shall have the right, at the Grantors’ own cost and expense,
to inspect the Article 9 Collateral, all records related thereto (and to make extracts and copies from such records) and the premises upon which any of the Article 9 Collateral is located, to discuss the Grantors’ affairs with the officers of
the Grantors and their independent accountants and to verify under reasonable procedures, in accordance with Section 5.7 of the Credit Agreement, the validity, amount, quality, quantity, value, condition and status of, or any other matter relating
to, the Article 9 Collateral, including, in the case of Accounts or Article 9 Collateral in the possession of any third person, by contacting Account Debtors (only during the existence of a Default) or the third person possessing such Article 9
Collateral for the purpose of making such a verification. The Administrative Agent shall have the absolute right to share any information it gains from such inspection or verification with any Secured Party. 
  
 (e) At its option, the Administrative Agent may discharge past due Taxes,
assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Article 9 Collateral and not expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the maintenance and
preservation of the Article 9 Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any payment
made or any expense incurred by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any
obligation on the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to Taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set
forth herein or in the other Loan Documents. 
  

 - 17 - 

 (f) As between each Grantor, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, each Grantor shall remain
liable to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument relating to the Article 9 Collateral, all in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof, and each
Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties from and against any and all liability for such performance. 
  
 (g) None of the Grantors shall make or permit to be made an assignment, pledge or hypothecation of the Article 9 Collateral
or shall grant any other Lien in respect of the Article 9 Collateral, except as expressly permitted by Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement. None of the Grantors shall make or permit to be made any transfer of the Article 9 Collateral, except as
expressly permitted by Sections 6.3 and 6.5 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 (h) None of the Grantors will, without the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, grant any extension of the time of payment of any Accounts included in the Article 9 Collateral, compromise, compound or settle the same for less
than the full amount thereof, release, wholly or partly, any person liable for the payment thereof or allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon, other than extensions, credits, discounts, compromises, compoundings or settlements granted or
made in good faith in the prudent conduct of the business of such Grantor. 
  
 (i) The Grantors, at their own expense, shall maintain or cause to be maintained insurance covering physical loss or damage to the Inventory and Equipment in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 5.2
of the Credit Agreement. Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Administrative Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful agent (and
attorney-in-fact) for the purpose, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, of making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on
any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto. In the event that any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or
maintain any of the policies of insurance required hereby or under the Credit Agreement or to pay any premium in whole or part relating thereto, the Administrative Agent may, without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of the Grantors
hereunder or any Event of Default, in its sole discretion, obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with respect thereto as the Administrative Agent deems advisable. All sums disbursed by the
Administrative Agent in connection with this paragraph, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by the Grantors to the Administrative Agent and shall be additional
Obligations secured hereby. 
  
 (j) Each Grantor shall maintain,
in form and manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, records of its Chattel Paper and its books, records and documents evidencing or pertaining thereto. 
  
 (k) Each Grantor agrees to notify the Administrative Agent promptly in writing upon learning that any of the Article 9
Collateral constitutes, or is the Proceeds of, Farm Products. 
  
 (l) With respect to each Government Contract subject to the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. 3727, or the Federal Assignment of Contracts Act, 41 U.S.C. 15, each Grantor covenants and agrees that, during all times that no Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, it shall make commercially reasonable efforts to provide any information reasonably 

  

 - 18 - 

 
requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to such Grantor’s Government Contracts, and upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
Default and upon the request of the Administrative Agent, it shall take all steps necessary to comply with the requirements of such act relating to the validity of the security interest of the Administrative Agent in such Government Contract
including, without limitation, the giving of notice to the Governmental Authority of the security interest of the Administrative Agent therein and the filing of original and true copies of this Agreement with the appropriate governmental offices and
any sureties as required by applicable law and regulations and, where required, obtaining consent of the Governmental Authority to the assignment to the Administrative Agent hereunder. Each Grantor shall also comply with any applicable state or
foreign statutes of similar import. 
  
 (m) In the event that the
Administrative Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or any other
person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to assist and aid the Administrative Agent to obtain as soon as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the
exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers. 
  
 SECTION 4.4.
Other Actions. In order to further insure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Administrative Agent to enforce, the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Article 9 Collateral, each Grantor agrees,
in each case at such Grantor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Article 9 Collateral: 
  
 (a) Instruments. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Instrument in excess of $200,000 and the amount due and payable under such
Instrument shall be due and payable more than 90 days after the issuance of such Instrument, such Grantor shall notify the Administrative Agent of the existence of such Instrument no later than the date of delivery of the next quarterly
officer’s certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.4(c) of the Credit Agreement, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such Instrument,
and such Instrument shall, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, forthwith be endorsed, assigned and delivered to the Administrative Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the
Administrative Agent may from time to time specify. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any amount payable to any Grantor under or in connection with any Instrument in excess of $1,500,000, such Instrument shall be promptly pledged and delivered to
the Administrative Agent, duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (b) Deposit Accounts. For each Deposit Account that any Grantor currently maintains, such Grantor shall, on or prior to November 15, 2004 (or such later date not beyond January 15, 2004 as the Administrative
Agent may agree in its sole discretion) with respect to Deposit Accounts in existence on the date hereof and within 60 days (or such time as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) after opening any Deposit Account with respect to
Deposit Accounts opened after the date hereof, either (i) cause the depositary bank to agree to comply at any time with instructions from the Administrative Agent to such depositary bank directing the disposition of funds from time to time credited
to such Deposit Account, without further consent of such Grantor or any other person, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, or (ii) arrange for the Administrative Agent to become the customer of the
depositary bank with respect to the Deposit Account, with the Grantor being permitted, only with the consent of the Administrative Agent, to exercise rights to withdraw funds from such Deposit Account. The Administrative Agent agrees with each

  

 - 19 - 

 
Grantor that the Administrative Agent shall not give any such instructions or withhold any withdrawal rights from any Grantor, unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any withdrawal, would occur. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to (A) any Deposit Account for which any Grantor, the depositary bank and the Administrative Agent have entered into
a cash collateral agreement specially negotiated among such Grantor, the depositary bank and the Administrative Agent for the specific purpose set forth therein, (B) Deposit Accounts for which the Administrative Agent is the depositary, (C) Deposit
Accounts of which all or a substantial portion of the funds on deposit are used for funding (i) payroll, (ii) 401(k) and other retirement plans and employee benefits, including rabbi trusts for deferred compensation, (iii) health care benefits
(e.g., imprest accounts) and (iv) escrow arrangements (e.g., environmental indemnity accounts) and (D) other Deposit Accounts (not already subject to the provisions of this paragraph) with an aggregate average daily balance during any
calendar quarter of all funds in all such other Deposit Accounts for all Grantors not in excess of $1,000,000 at any time. 
  
 (c) Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article III, if any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated
securities with an aggregate value in excess of $50,000, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the
Administrative Agent may from time to time specify. If any securities now or hereafter acquired by any Grantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Grantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, such Grantor shall immediately notify the
Administrative Agent thereof and, at the Administrative Agent’s request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, either (a) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from
the Administrative Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Grantor or such nominee, or (b) arrange for the Administrative Agent to become the registered owner of the securities. If any securities, whether certificated or
uncertificated, or other Investment Property now or hereafter acquired by any Grantor are held by such Grantor or its nominee through a Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, such Grantor shall immediately notify the Administrative Agent
thereof and, at the Administrative Agent’s request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, either (a) cause such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be,
to agree to comply with Entitlement Orders or other instructions from the Administrative Agent to such Securities Intermediary as to such securities or other Investment Property, or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on account of
any commodity contract as directed by the Administrative Agent to such Commodity Intermediary, in each case without further consent of any Grantor or such nominee, or (b) in the case of Financial Assets (as governed by Article 8 of the New York UCC)
or other Investment Property held through a Securities Intermediary, arrange for the Administrative Agent to become the Entitlement Holder with respect to such Investment Property, with the Grantor being permitted, only with the consent of the
Administrative Agent, to exercise rights to withdraw or otherwise deal with such Investment Property. The Administrative Agent agrees with each of the Grantors that the Administrative Agent shall not give any such Entitlement Orders or instructions
or directions to any such issuer, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by any Grantor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights would occur. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any Financial Assets credited to a Securities Account for which the Administrative Agent is the Securities
Intermediary. 
  
 (d) Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable
Records. If any Grantor at any time holds or acquires an interest in any Electronic Chattel Paper or any “transferable record” (as that 

  

 - 20 - 

 
term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction), such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, at the request of the Administrative Agent, shall take such action as the Administrative Agent may request to vest
in the Administrative Agent control under New York UCC Section 9-105 of such Electronic Chattel Paper or control under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the
Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The Administrative Agent agrees with such Grantor that the Administrative Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Administrative Agent’s loss of control, for the Grantor to make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record permitted under UCC Section 9-105 or,
as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Grantor with respect to such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record. 
  
 (e) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Grantor is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit now or hereafter
issued in favor of such Grantor, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, at the request and option of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Administrative Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the
Administrative Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, with the Administrative Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit are to be paid to the applicable Grantor unless an
Event of Default has occurred or is continuing. 
  
 (f)
Commercial Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim and such claim is for more than $1,000,000, such Grantor shall notify the Administrative Agent no later than the date of delivery of the next
quarterly officer’s certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.4(c) of the Credit Agreement (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case such Grantor shall notify the Administrative Agent promptly)
of such claim in a writing signed by such Grantor including a summary description of such claim and grant to the Administrative Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with
such writing to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 SECTION 4.5. Covenants regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral. (a) Each Grantor agrees that it will not, and will not permit any of its licensees to, do any act, or omit do to any act, whereby any
Patent that is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, may become invalidated or dedicated to the public, and agrees that it shall continue to mark any products covered by a Patent with the
relevant patent number as necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve its maximum rights under applicable patent laws. 
  
 (b) Each Grantor (either itself or through its licensees or its sublicensees) will, for each Trademark material to the conduct of the business of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (i) maintain such Trademark in full force free from any claim of abandonment or invalidity for non-use, (ii) maintain the quality of products and services offered under such 

  

 - 21 - 

 
Trademark, (iii) display such Trademark with notice of Federal or foreign registration to the extent necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve its
maximum rights under applicable law and (iv) not knowingly use or knowingly permit the use of such Trademark in violation of any third party rights. 
  
 (c) Each Grantor (either itself or through its licensees or sublicensees) will, for each work covered by a Copyright that is material to the conduct of
the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, continue to publish, reproduce, display, adopt and distribute the work with appropriate copyright notice as necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve its maximum rights
under applicable copyright laws. 
  
 (d) Each Grantor shall notify
the Administrative Agent immediately if it knows or has reason to know that any Patent, Trademark or Copyright that is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, may become abandoned, lost or
dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office or
any court or similar office of any country) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, its right to register the same, or its right to keep and maintain the same. 
  
 (e) In no event shall any Grantor, either itself or through any agent,
employee, licensee or designee, file an application for any Patent, Trademark or Copyright (or for the registration of any Trademark or Copyright) with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office or any office or
agency in any political subdivision of the United States or in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, with respect to any of the same which is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, unless it informs the Administrative Agent of such application no later than the date of delivery of the next quarterly officer’s certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.4(c) of the Credit Agreement, unless an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such application, and, upon request of the Administrative Agent, executes and delivers any and all agreements, instruments, documents and
papers as the Administrative Agent may request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, and each Grantor hereby appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact to execute and
file such writings for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; such power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable. 
  
 (f) [Intentionally Omitted] 
  
 (g) [Intentionally Omitted] 
  
 (h) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, use its best
efforts to obtain all requisite consents or approvals by the licensor of each Copyright License, Patent License or Trademark License to effect the assignment of all such Grantor’s right, title and interest thereunder to the Administrative Agent
or its designee. 
  
 (i) In no event shall any Grantor license the
Intellectual Property other than licenses entered into by such Grantor in, or incidental to, the ordinary course of business, or amend or permit the amendment of any of the licenses in a manner that materially and adversely affects the right to
receive payments thereunder, or in any manner that would materially impair the value of 

  

 - 22 - 

 
the Intellectual Property or the Lien on and security interest in the Intellectual Property intended to be granted to the Administrative Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, without the consent of the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (j) Each Grantor shall, at its sole cost and expense, (i) diligently keep adequate records respecting the Intellectual Property and (ii) furnish to the Administrative Agent from time to time upon the Administrative
Agent’s request therefor reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property and such other materials evidencing or reports pertaining to the Intellectual Property as the
Administrative Agent may from time to time request. 
  
 SECTION
4.6. After-Acquired Intellectual Property. If any Grantor shall, at any time before the Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations which, pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement or the
Security Documents, survive the termination thereof), (a) obtain any rights to any additional Intellectual Property or (b) become entitled to the benefit of any additional Intellectual Property or any renewal or extension thereof, including any
reissue, division, continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property, or any improvement on any Intellectual Property, the provisions hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item enumerated in clause (a) or (b) of this
Section 4.6 with respect to such Grantor shall automatically constitute Intellectual Property if such would have constituted Intellectual Property at the time of execution hereof and be subject to the Lien and security interest created by this
Agreement without further action by any party. Each Grantor shall promptly (i) provide to the Administrative Agent written notice of any of the foregoing and (ii) upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, confirm the attachment of the
Lien and security interest created by this Agreement to any rights described in clauses (a) and (b) of the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 4.6 by execution of an instrument in form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and
the filing of any instruments or statements as shall be reasonably necessary to preserve, protect or perfect the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property. Further, each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent
to modify this Agreement by amending Schedule 10A and Schedule 10B annexed to the Perfection Certificate to include any Intellectual Property acquired or arising after the date hereof of such Grantor. 
  
 SECTION 4.7. Covenants Regarding Accounts. (a) Each Grantor shall keep
and maintain at its own cost and expense complete records of each Account, in a manner consistent with prudent business practice, including records of all payments received, all credits granted thereon, all merchandise returned and all other
documentation relating thereto. Each Grantor shall, at such Grantor’s sole cost and expense, upon the Administrative Agent’s demand made at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, deliver all
tangible evidence of Accounts, including all documents evidencing Accounts and any books and records relating thereto to the Administrative Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and records may be retained by such
Grantor). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may transfer a full and complete copy of any Grantor’s books, records, credit information, reports, memoranda and all other writings
relating to the Accounts to and for the use by any person that has acquired or is contemplating acquisition of an interest in the Accounts or the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein without the consent of any Grantor. 

 
 (b) Each Grantor shall legend, at the request of the Administrative Agent
and in form and manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Accounts and the other books, records and documents of such Grantor evidencing or pertaining to the Accounts with an appropriate 

  

 - 23 - 

 
reference to the fact that the Accounts have been assigned to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that the Administrative
Agent has a security interest therein. 
  
 (c) No Grantor shall
rescind or cancel any obligations evidenced by any Account or modify any term thereof or make any adjustment with respect thereto except modifications and adjustments that are consistent with prudent business practice, or extend or renew any such
obligations except in accordance with prudent business practice or compromise or settle any dispute, claim, suit or legal proceeding relating thereto or sell any Account or interest therein except in accordance with prudent business practice without
the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (d)
Each Grantor shall cause to be collected from the Account Debtor of each of the Accounts, as and when due and consistent with prudent business practice (including Accounts that are delinquent, such Accounts to be collected in accordance with
generally accepted commercial collection procedures), any and all amounts owing under or on account of such Account, and apply forthwith upon receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding balance of such Account, except
that any Grantor may, with respect to an Account, in a manner consistent with prudent business practice allow (i) a refund or credit due as a result of returned or damaged or defective merchandise and (ii) such extensions of time to pay amounts due
in respect of Accounts and such other modifications of payment terms or settlements in respect of Accounts as shall be commercially reasonable in the circumstances, all in accordance with such Grantor’s prudent business practice and consistent
with its collection practices as in effect from time to time. The costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of collection, in any case, whether incurred by any Grantor, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, shall be paid by the
Grantors. 
  
 ARTICLE V 
 Remedies 
  
 SECTION 5.1. Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor agrees to deliver each item
of Collateral to the Administrative Agent on demand, and it is agreed that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to take any of or all the following actions at the same or different times: (a) with respect to any Article 9 Collateral
consisting of Intellectual Property, on demand, to cause the Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Article 9 Collateral by the applicable Grantors to the Administrative Agent, or to license or
sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any such Article 9 Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Administrative Agent shall determine
(other than in violation of any then-existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers cannot be obtained), and (b) with or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, to take possession of the Article
9 Collateral and without liability for trespass to enter any premises where the Article 9 Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking possession of or removing the Article 9 Collateral and, generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded
to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of
applicable law, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Administrative Agent shall
deem appropriate. The Administrative Agent shall be authorized at any such sale (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are 

  

 - 24 - 

 
purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such
sale the Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or
right on the part of any Grantor, and the Grantors hereby waive (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now
existing or hereafter enacted. 
  
 The Administrative Agent shall
give the applicable Grantors 10 days’ written notice (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Administrative Agent’s intention
to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such
sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places
as the Administrative Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Administrative Agent may (in its
sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The
Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made
at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Administrative Agent until the sale price is paid
by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral
may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant to this Section, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by law) from any right of redemption, stay,
valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim
then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any
Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Administrative Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor
shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Administrative Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the
Obligations paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Administrative Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion
thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.1 shall be deemed to conform to the
commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions. 
  

 - 25 - 

 SECTION 5.2. Application of Proceeds. The Administrative Agent shall apply the proceeds of any
collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, as follows: 
  
 FIRST, to the payment of all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as such hereunder or under any other Loan Document)
in connection with such collection, sale, foreclosure or realization or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any of the Obligations, including all court costs and the fees and expenses of its agents and legal
counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any Grantor and any other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or
under any other Loan Document; 
  
 SECOND, to the payment in full
of the Obligations (the amounts so applied to be distributed among the Secured Parties pro rata in accordance with the amounts of the Obligations owed to them on the date of any such distribution); and 
  
 THIRD, to the Grantors, their successors or assigns, or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. 
  
 The Administrative Agent shall
have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Administrative Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or
under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Administrative Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated
to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Administrative Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. 
  
 SECTION 5.3. Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to
exercise rights and remedies under this Article at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable, nonexclusive license
(exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors) to use, license or sublicense any of the Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same
may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license by the
Administrative Agent shall be exercised, at the option of the Administrative Agent, only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default. 
  

SECTION 5.4. Securities Act, etc. In view of the position of the Grantors in relation to the Pledged Collateral, or because of other current or
future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in effect
being called the “Federal Securities Laws”) with respect to any disposition of the Pledged Collateral permitted hereunder. Each Grantor understands that compliance with the Federal Securities Laws might very strictly limit the
course of conduct of the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, and might also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent 

  

 - 26 - 

 
transferee of any Pledged Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Administrative
Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged Collateral under applicable “blue sky” or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Each Grantor recognizes that in light of such restrictions
and limitations the Administrative Agent may, with respect to any sale of the Pledged Collateral, limit the purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment, and not
with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that in light of such restrictions and limitations, the Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion (a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or
not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws and (b) may approach and negotiate with such number of purchasers as the Administrative Agent
determines to be reasonable to effect such sale. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such restrictions. In the event
of any such sale, the Administrative Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price that the Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem
reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid or if more than a single purchaser were approached. The
provisions of this Section 5.4 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at which the Administrative Agent sells. 
  
 SECTION 5.5. Certain Matters Relating to Receivables. (a) At any time
during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to make test verifications of the Receivables in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and each Grantor shall furnish
all such assistance and information as the Administrative Agent may require in connection with such test verifications. At any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the Administrative Agent’s request and at the expense of the
relevant Grantor, such Grantor shall cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to furnish to the Administrative Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances
for, the Receivables. 
  
 (b) The Administrative Agent hereby
authorizes each Grantor to collect such Grantor’s Receivables, and the Administrative Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. If required by the
Administrative Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Receivables, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited by
such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent if required, in a Collateral Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, subject to withdrawal by the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Secured Parties only as provided in Section 5.2, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such
Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Receivables shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit. 
  
 SECTION 5.6. Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable. (a) The Administrative Agent in its own name or in
the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default communicate with obligors under 

  

 - 27 - 

 
the Receivables to verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Receivables. 
  
 (b) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify obligors on the Receivables that the Receivables have been assigned to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments
in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Receivables to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance
with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or
the receipt by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any Lender be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable
(or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to
take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times. 
  
 SECTION 5.7. Proceeds to be Turned Over To Administrative Agent. In addition to the rights of the Administrative
Agent and the Secured Parties specified in Section 5.5 with respect to payments of Receivables, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items shall be
held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received
by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account maintained under its sole
dominion and control. All Proceeds while held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the
Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 5.2. 
  
 SECTION 5.8. Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the fees and
disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to collect such deficiency. 
  
 ARTICLE VI 
 Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination 
  
 SECTION 6.1. Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights
of indemnity and subrogation as the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 6.3), the Borrower agrees that (a) in the event a payment shall be made by any Guarantor under this Agreement, the Borrower shall indemnify such
Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment and (b) in the event any assets of 

  

 - 28 - 

 
any Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to this Agreement or any other Security Document to satisfy in whole or in part a claim of any Secured Party, the
Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of the book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold. 
  
 SECTION 6.2. Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing Guarantor”) agrees (subject to Section 6.3) that, in
the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Obligation or assets of any other Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to any Security Document to satisfy any Obligation owed to any Secured Party and such other
Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower as provided in Section 6.1, the Contributing Guarantor shall indemnify the Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such
payment or the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets, as the case may be, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof and the
denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 7.16, the date of the Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor).
Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Guarantor under Section 6.1 to the extent of such payment. 
  
 SECTION 6.3. Subordination. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the Guarantors under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 and all other rights of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in
cash of the Obligations. No failure on the part of the Borrower or any Guarantor to make the payments required by Sections 6.1 and 6.2 (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations and
liabilities of any Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder. 
  
 (b) Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors hereby agrees that all Indebtedness and other monetary obligations owed by it to
the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations. 
  
 ARTICLE VII 
 Miscellaneous 

 
 SECTION 7.1. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder
shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in
Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 7.2. Security
Interest Absolute. All rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Security Interest, the grant of a security interest in the Pledged Collateral and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective
of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any agreement with respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time,
manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument, (c)
any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee, securing or guaranteeing all or any of the Obligations, or (d) any other circumstance
that might otherwise 

  

 - 29 - 

 
constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 7.3. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have
been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its
behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under the Credit Agreement, and shall
continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable or other Obligation (other than Obligations under Specified Hedge Agreements) under any Loan Document is
outstanding and unpaid or the Aggregate L/C Exposure does not equal zero and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. 
  
 SECTION 7.4. Binding Effect; Several Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Loan Party when a counterpart hereof executed on
behalf of such Loan Party shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Loan Party and the Administrative
Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Loan Party, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Loan Party shall have
the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein or in the Collateral (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This
Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Loan Party and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Loan Party without the approval of any other Loan Party and without affecting the
obligations of any other Loan Party hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 7.5.
Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on
behalf of any Grantor or the Administrative Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns. 
  
 SECTION 7.6. Administrative Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The parties hereto agree that the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 9.5 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 (b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents, each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the
Administrative Agent and the other Indemnitees against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related out of pocket expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any
Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or any claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, or to the Collateral, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided, however, that such
indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to 

  

 - 30 - 

 
the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 
  
 (c) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Obligations secured hereby and by the other Security Documents. The provisions of this Section 7.6 shall remain operative and in full force and
effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party. All amounts due under this Section 7.6 shall be payable on written demand therefor and shall bear interest at the
rate for ABR Borrowings specified in Section 2.6 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 7.7. Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby appoints the Administrative Agent as the attorney-in-fact of such Grantor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this
Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, with full power of substitution either in the Administrative Agent’s name or in the name of such
Grantor (a) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give
receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to sign the name of any Grantor on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (d) to send verifications of Accounts Receivable to any Account
Debtor; (e) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any
Collateral; (f) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; (g) to notify, or to require any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the
Administrative Agent; and (h) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement,
as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Administrative
Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Administrative Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part
thereof or the moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the powers
granted to them herein, and neither they nor their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
  
 SECTION 7.8. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
  

 - 31 - 

 SECTION 7.9. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to
enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless
the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a
Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or
demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
  
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered
into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 9.8 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 7.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B)
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.10. 
  
 SECTION 7.11. Severability. In the event any one or more of the
provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any
way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall
endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
  
 SECTION 7.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 7.4.
Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by 

  

 - 32 - 

 
facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 7.13. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of
Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 7.14. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each of
the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America, sitting in New York City, and any appellate
court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the Loan Parties agrees that a final judgment in any such action
or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
  
 (b) Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives,
to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any
court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section. Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

  
 (c) Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably consents to
service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 7.1. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of the Administrative Agent to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
  
 SECTION 7.15. Termination or Release. (a) This Agreement, the
Guarantees, the Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall terminate when all the Obligations (other than Obligations under Specified Hedge Agreements) then due and owing have been indefeasibly paid in full and the
Lenders have no further commitment to lend under the Credit Agreement, the aggregate L/C Exposure has been reduced to zero and the Issuing Bank has no further obligations to issue Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement. 
  
 (b) A Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations
hereunder and the Security Interest in the Collateral of such Guarantor shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the
Borrower. 
  
 (c) Upon any sale or other transfer by any Grantor
of any Collateral that is permitted under the Credit Agreement to any person that is not the Borrower or a Guarantor, or, upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant
to Section 9.8 of the Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral 

  

 - 33 - 

 
shall be automatically released and the Administrative Agent will confirm such release in writing promptly after written request therefor. 
  
 (d) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a),
(b) or (c) above, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of
documents pursuant to this Section 7.15 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the provisions of Section 7.6, the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for all costs and out of
pocket expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel, incurred by it in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 7.15. 
  
 SECTION 7.16. Additional Grantors. Pursuant to Section 5.9 of the Credit Agreement, each Domestic Subsidiary of a Loan Party that was not in
existence or not a Subsidiary on the date of the Credit Agreement is required to enter in this Agreement as a Guarantor upon becoming such a Subsidiary. Upon execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent and a Domestic Subsidiary of a
supplement in the form of Exhibit A hereto (a “Supplement”), such Domestic Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor herein. The execution and delivery of any
such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Loan Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this
Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 7.17. Right of Setoff. If an Event
of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Grantor against any and all of the obligations of such Grantor now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
  
 SECTION 7.18. Duty of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical
preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the
Administrative Agent, any Lender nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation
to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent
and the Lenders shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act
or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
  

 - 34 - 

 SECTION 7.19. Authority of Administrative Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and

 Exhibit A to the 
 Guarantee and 
 Collateral Agreement 
  
 SUPPLEMENT NO. [·] dated as of [·], to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement dated as of September 30, 2004 (the “Guarantee
and Collateral Agreement”), among KNOLL, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), each subsidiary of the Borrower listed on Schedule I thereto (each such subsidiary individually a “Guarantor” and
collectively, the “Guarantors”; the Guarantors and the Borrower are referred to collectively herein as the “Grantors”). 
  
 A. Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of September 30, 2004 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, the lenders named therein (the “Lenders”), and UBS AG, Stamford Branch, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). 

 
 B. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement or the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement referred to therein, as applicable. 
  
 C. The Grantors have entered into the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans and the Issuing Bank to issue
Letters of Credit. Section 7.16 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement provides that additional Domestic Subsidiaries of the Loan Parties may become Guarantors and Grantors under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement by execution and delivery of
an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Guarantor and a Grantor under the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and the Issuing Bank to issue additional Letters of Credit and as consideration for Loans previously made and Letters of Credit previously issued. 

 
 Accordingly, the New Subsidiary agrees as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 7.16 of the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a Grantor and Guarantor under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Grantor and Guarantor and the New Subsidiary hereby
(a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement applicable to it as a Grantor and Guarantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Grantor and Guarantor
thereunder are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Subsidiary, as security for the payment and performance in full of the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement), does hereby create and grant to the Administrative Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, their successors and assigns, a security interest in and lien on all of the New Subsidiary’s
right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) of the New Subsidiary. Each reference to a “Grantor” or a “Guarantor” in the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference. 
  
 SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly
authorized, executed and 

  

 1 

 
delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. 
  
 SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different
parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have received
counterparts of this Supplement that bear the signature of the New Subsidiary. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement.

  
 SECTION 4. The New Subsidiary hereby represents and warrants
that (a) set forth on Schedule I attached hereto is a true and correct schedule of the location of any and all Collateral of the New Subsidiary and (b) set forth under its signature hereto, is the true and correct legal name of the New Subsidiary,
its jurisdiction of formation and the location of its chief executive office. 
  
 SECTION 5. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
  
 SECTION 6. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

  
 SECTION 7. In case any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall not in any way
be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall
endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
  
 SECTION 8. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and
given as provided in Section 7.1 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to the New Subsidiary shall be given to it at the address set forth under its signature below. 
  
 SECTION 9. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent
for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including the reasonable fees, other charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent.

real property interests, buildings, improvements, fixtures, furniture and appliances and other personal property including all accessions and additions thereto, all substitutions therefor and replacements and proceeds thereof and all reversions in
and remainders of such property: 
  
 (a) All that tract or parcel
of land and other real property interests in              County, [INSERT STATE] more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (the
“Land”), and all rights, privileges, tenements, hereditaments, rights-of-way, easements, appendages and appurtenances appertaining to the foregoing, and all right, title and interest, if any, of Borrower in and to any streets, ways,
alleys, strips or gores of land adjoining the Land or any part thereof; and 
  

 (b) All buildings and improvements of every kind and description now or hereafter erected or placed on
the Land (collectively, the “Improvements”) and all materials intended for construction, reconstruction, alteration and repair of such Improvements now or hereafter erected thereon, all of which materials shall be deemed to be
included within the premises hereby conveyed immediately upon the delivery thereof to the Land, and all fixtures and articles of personal property now or hereafter owned by the Borrower and attached to or contained in or used in connection with the
Land and Improvements including, but not limited to, all furniture, furnishings, apparatus, machinery, equipment, motors, elevators, fittings, radiators, ranges, refrigerators, awnings, shades, screens, blinds, carpeting, office equipment and other
furnishings and all plumbing, heating, lighting, cooking, laundry, ventilating, refrigerating, incinerating, air conditioning and sprinkler equipment and fixtures and appurtenances thereto and all renewals or replacements thereof or articles in
substitution thereof, whether or not the same are or shall be attached to the Land and Improvements in any manner (the “Tangible Personalty”), and all proceeds of the Tangible Personalty (hereinafter, the Land, Improvements and
Tangible Personalty may be collectively referred to as the “Premises”). 
  
 TO HAVE AND HOLD the same, together with all privileges, hereditaments, easements and appurtenances thereunto belonging, to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent’s successors and assigns to secure
the Indebtedness; 
  
 And, as additional security for the
Indebtedness, the Borrower hereby conditionally assigns to the Administrative Agent all right, title and interest of the Borrower in and to the security deposits, rents, issues, profits, income and revenues of the Premises from time to time accruing
(the “Rents and Profits”), including, but not limited to, all cash or securities deposited under any leases to secure performance by the tenants of their obligations thereunder, whether said cash or securities are to be held until
the expiration of the terms of such leases or applied to one or more of the installments of rent coming due thereunder, reserving only the right to the Borrower to collect and enjoy the same as long as there shall exist no Event of Default (as
defined in Article III). 
  
 As additional collateral and further
security for the Indebtedness, the Borrower does hereby assign to the Administrative Agent and grants to the Administrative Agent a security interest in all of the right, title and interest of the Borrower in and to any and all insurance policies
and proceeds thereof and any and all leases (including equipment leases), rental agreements, sales contracts, management contracts, franchise agreements, construction contracts, architects’ contracts, technical services agreements, or other
contracts, licenses and permits now or hereafter affecting the Premises (the “Intangible Personalty”) or any part thereof, and the Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such additional instruments, in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as may hereafter be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to evidence and confirm said assignment; provided, however, that acceptance of any such
assignment shall not be construed as a consent by the Administrative Agent to any lease, rental agreement, management contract, franchise agreement, construction contract, technical services agreement or other contract, license or permit, or to
impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligation with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, such assignment and grant of security interest contained herein shall not extend to, and the Intangible Personalty shall not include,
any personalty which is now or hereafter held by the Borrower as licensee, lessee or otherwise, to the 

  

 -2- 

 
extent that (a) such personalty is not assignable or capable of being encumbered as a matter of law or under the terms of the license, lease or other
agreement applicable thereto (but solely to the extent that any such restriction shall be enforceable under applicable law), without the consent of the licensor or lessor thereof or other applicable party thereto and (b) such consent has not been
obtained; provided, however, that the foregoing assignment and grant of security interest shall extend to, and the Intangible Personalty shall include, any and all proceeds of such personalty to the extent that the assignment or
encumbering of such proceeds is not so restricted under the terms of the license, lease or other agreement applicable thereto. 
  
 All the Tangible Personalty which comprises a part of the Premises shall, as far as permitted by law, be deemed to be affixed to the aforesaid Land and
conveyed therewith. As to the balance of the Tangible Personalty and the Intangible Personalty, this Mortgage shall be considered to be a security agreement which creates a security interest in such items for the benefit of the Administrative Agent.
In that regard, the Borrower grants to the Administrative Agent all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the [INSERT STATE] Uniform Commercial Code. Borrower grants to Administrative Agent a security interest in all of the Tangible
Personalty and Intangible Personalty. 
  
 The Borrower and the
Administrative Agent covenant, represent and agree as follows: 
  
 ARTICLE I

this Mortgage, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Loan Documents from the Borrower to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, howsoever evidenced, created, incurred or acquired, whether primary, secondary, direct, contingent, or
joint and several, including without limitation, any liability arising under Hedging Agreements if and to the extent agreed to by a Loan Party in the documentation evidencing same and all obligations and liabilities incurred in connection with the
collection and enforcement of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indebtedness”).

 ARTICLE II 
  

The Borrower’s Covenants, Representations and Agreements 
  

2.1 Title to Property. The Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent that (i) it is the owner of the Land, the Improvements,
the Tangible Personalty, and has the right to convey the same, (ii) that as of the date hereof title to such property is free and clear of all encumbrances except for the matters shown on the title insurance policy accepted by the Administrative
Agent in connection with this Mortgage (the “Permitted Encumbrances”) and the Liens permitted under Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement (the “Permitted Liens”), and (iii) while any Indebtedness remains outstanding,
it will warrant and defend the title to such property except for the Permitted Encumbrances and the Permitted Liens against the claims of all Persons. As to the balance of the Premises, the Rents and Profits and the Intangible Personalty, the
Borrower represents and warrants that it has title to such property, that title as of the date hereof to such property is free and clear of all encumbrances except for the Permitted Encumbrances and the Permitted Liens, that it has the right, power
and authority to convey such property and that, while any Indebtedness remains outstanding, it will warrant and defend such property except for the Permitted Encumbrances and the Permitted Liens against the claims of all Persons. This Mortgage
creates a valid, enforceable first priority lien and security interest against the Premises, the Rents and Profits and the Intangible Personalty and all proceeds thereof, subject in all cases to Permitted Encumbrances, Permitted Liens and applicable
bankruptcy and debtor-creditor law, as well as general principles of equity. 
  
 2.2 Taxes and Fees. The Borrower will pay all taxes, general and special assessments, insurance premiums, permit fees, inspection fees, license fees, water and sewer charges, franchise fees and equipment rents
and any other charges or fees against it or the Premises (and the Borrower, upon request of the Administrative Agent, will submit to the Administrative Agent receipts evidencing said payments) in accordance with Section 5.3 of the Credit Agreement.

  
 2.3 Reimbursement. Subject to the Borrower’s right
to contest as set forth in, and the other terms of and exceptions contained in, the Credit Agreement, the Borrower agrees that if it shall fail to pay on or before the date that the same become delinquent any tax, assessment or charge levied or
assessed against the Premises or any utility charge, whether public or private, or any insurance premium or if it shall fail to procure the insurance coverage and the delivery of the insurance certificates required hereunder, or if it shall fail,
beyond any applicable notice and cure periods provided herein, to pay any other charge or fee described in Sections 2.2, 2.3 or 2.6 hereof, then the Administrative Agent, at its option, may pay or procure the same and will give the Borrower prompt
notice of any such expenditures. The Borrower will reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for any sums of money paid by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, together with interest on each such payment at the default rate of
interest provided in Section 2.7 of the Credit Agreement, and all such sums and interest thereon shall be secured hereby. 
  
 2.4 Additional Documents. The Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, concurrently with the execution of this Mortgage
and upon the request of the Administrative Agent from time to time hereafter, all financing statements and other documents reasonably required to perfect and maintain the security interest created hereby. The 

  

 -4- 

 
Borrower hereby irrevocably (as long as any Loans or Letters of Credit remain outstanding or the Commitments have not been terminated) makes, constitutes and
appoints the Administrative Agent as the true and lawful attorney of the Borrower to sign the name of the Borrower on any financing statement, continuation of financing statement or similar document required to perfect or continue such security
interests upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default. 
  
 2.5 Sale or Encumbrance. Except as permitted by the Credit Agreement, the Borrower covenants and agrees with the Administrative Agent that the Borrower shall not sell, transfer, convey, mortgage, encumber or
otherwise dispose of the Premises, the Rents and Profits or the Intangible Personalty or any part thereof or any interest therein or engage in subordinate financing with respect thereto during the term of this Mortgage without the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent. In the event the Borrower sells, assigns, mortgages, gives or otherwise disposes of any of the Tangible Personalty in contravention of the foregoing sentence, the Administrative Agent’s security interest in
the proceeds of the Tangible Personalty shall continue pursuant to this Mortgage. 
  
 2.6 Fees and Expenses. The Borrower will promptly pay upon demand any and all reasonable costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, (a) as required under the provisions of the Credit Agreement and (b) as
necessary to protect the Premises, the Rents and Profits or the Intangible Personalty or to exercise any rights or remedies under this Mortgage or with respect to the Premises, Rents and Profits or the Intangible Personalty. All of the foregoing
costs and expenses shall be secured hereby. 
  
 2.7 Leases and
Other Agreements. Without first obtaining on each occasion the written approval of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall not, except as permitted by the Credit Agreement, enter into, cancel, surrender or modify or permit the cancellation
of any material lease (including any equipment lease), rental agreement, management contract, franchise agreement, construction contract, technical services agreement or other material contract, license or permit now or hereafter affecting the
Premises, or modify any of said instruments, or accept or permit to be made, any prepayment (more than one month) of any installment of rent or fees thereunder. Certified copies of each such approved material lease or other material agreement shall
be submitted to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request. The Borrower shall faithfully keep and perform, or cause to be kept and performed, in all material respects, all of the covenants, conditions, and agreements contained in each of said
agreements, now or hereafter existing, on the part of the Borrower to be kept and performed (including performance of all covenants to be performed under any and all leases of the Premises or any part thereof) and shall at all times use commercially
reasonable efforts to enforce, with respect to each other party to said agreements, all obligations, covenants and agreements by such other party to be performed thereunder. 
  
 2.8 Maintenance of Premises. Except as provided otherwise in the Credit Agreement, the Borrower will abstain from and
will not permit the commission of waste in or about the Premises and will maintain, or cause to be maintained, the Premises in good condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. The failure of the Borrower to pay any taxes or assessments
assessed against the Premises, or any installments thereof, or any premiums payable with respect to any insurance policy covering the Premises, shall constitute waste. 
  

 -5- 

 2.9 Maintenance of Rights of Way, Easements and Licenses. Borrower shall maintain all rights of
way, easements, grants, privileges, licenses, certificates, permits, entitlements and franchises necessary for the use of the Premises and will not, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed, consent to any public restriction (including any zoning ordinance) or private restriction as to the use of the Premises which restriction is reasonably likely to materially and adversely effect the current use of the Premises. Borrower
shall comply in all material respects with all restrictive covenants affecting the Premises, and all zoning ordinances and other public or private restrictions as to the use of the Premises. A default under this Section will not constitute an Event
of Default unless such default would have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 2.10 Replacement of Fixtures and Personalty. Except as permitted by the Credit Agreement, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld, permit any of the Tangible
Personalty to be removed at any time from the Land or Improvements, unless the removed item is removed temporarily for maintenance and repair or, if removed permanently, is obsolete and in either case, is replaced by an article of equal or better
suitability and value, owned by Borrower subject to the liens and security interests of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and free and clear of any other lien or security interest except such as may be first approved in writing by
Administrative Agent. A default under this Section will not constitute an Event of Default unless such default would have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 2.11 Insurance. 
  
 (a) Types Required. The Borrower shall maintain insurance for the Premises as set forth in Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement. In
addition to the requirements set forth in Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement, if any part of the Improvements is located in an area having “special flood hazards” as defined in the Federal Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, a flood
insurance policy as may be required by law naming the Administrative Agent as mortgagee must be submitted to the Administrative Agent. The policy must be in such amount, covering such risks and liabilities and with such deductibles or self-insurance
retentions as are in accordance with normal industry practice. 
  
 (b) Use of Proceeds. All insurance proceeds received by the Borrower shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.2 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 2.12 Eminent Domain. All proceeds or awards which may become due by reason of any condemnation or other taking for
public use of the whole or any part of the Premises or any rights appurtenant thereto to which the Borrower is entitled shall be applied in the same manner the insurance proceeds are applied pursuant to Section 5.2of the Credit Agreement. The
Borrower agrees to execute such further assignments and agreements as may be reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to assure the effectiveness of this Section. In the event any Governmental Authority shall require or commence any
proceedings for the demolition of any buildings or structures comprising a part of the Premises, or shall commence any proceedings to condemn or otherwise take pursuant to the power of eminent domain a material portion of the Premises, the Borrower
shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such requirement or commencement of proceeding (for demolition, condemnation or other taking). 
  

 -6- 

 2.13 Releases and Waivers. The Borrower agrees that no release by the Administrative Agent of any
portion of the Premises, the Rents and Profits or the Intangible Personalty, no subordination of any Lien, no forbearance on the part of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to collect on the Loans or Letters of Credit, or any part thereof, no
waiver of any right granted or remedy available to the Administrative Agent and no action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent shall in any way have the effect of releasing the Borrower from full responsibility to the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent for the complete discharge of each and every of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 
  
 2.14 Compliance with Law. Except as otherwise permitted in the Credit Agreement, the Borrower will comply with all applicable statutes, regulations
and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all governmental authorities in respect of the ownership of the Premises (including applicable statutes, regulations, orders and restrictions relating to environmental standards and
controls). 
  
 2.15 Inspection. Except as otherwise
permitted in the Credit Agreement, the Borrower will permit the Administrative Agent, or its agents, at all reasonable times during regular business hours and with advance prior notice to enter and pass through or over the Premises for the purpose
of inspecting same; provided, however, prior to an Event of Default inspections shall be at reasonable times during the Administrative Agent’s normal business hours. 
  
 ARTICLE III 
  
 Event of Default 
  
 An Event of Default shall exist under the terms of this Mortgage upon the existence of an Event of Default under the terms of the Credit Agreement.

  
 ARTICLE IV 
  
 Foreclosure 
  
 4.1 Rights and Remedies of Administrative Agent. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Administrative Agent may, at its option and notwithstanding any contrary provisions in the Loan Documents, without further notice, presentment, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, demand or action of any nature
whatsoever, do one or more of the following: 
  
 (a) Administrative Agent may declare the entire unpaid principal balance of the Indebtedness, together with all interest thereon, to be due and payable immediately. 
  
 (b) Administrative Agent may (i) institute and maintain an action of mortgage foreclosure against the
Premises and the interests of Borrower therein, (ii) institute and maintain an action on any instruments evidencing the Indebtedness or any portion thereof, and (iii) take such other action at law or in equity for the enforcement of any of the Loan
Documents as the law may allow, and in each such action Administrative Agent shall be entitled to all costs of suit and attorney fees. 
  

 -7- 

 (c) Administrative Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, and without releasing
Borrower or any other obligor or guarantor from any obligation under any of the Loan Documents and without waiving any Event of Default: (i) collect any or all of the Rents and Profits, including any Rents and Profits past due and unpaid, (ii)
perform any obligation or exercise any right or remedy of Borrower under any lease, or (iii) enforce any obligation of any tenant of any of the Premises. Administrative Agent may exercise any right under this subsection (c) whether or not
Administrative Agent shall have entered into possession of any of the Mortgaged Property, and nothing herein contained shall be construed as constituting Administrative Agent a “mortgagee in possession”, unless Administrative Agent shall
have entered into and shall continue to be in actual possession of the Premises. 
  
 (d) Borrower hereby authorizes and directs each and every present and future tenant of any of the Premises to pay all Rents and Profits
directly to Administrative Agent and to perform all other obligations of that tenant for the direct benefit of Administrative Agent, as if Administrative Agent were the landlord under the lease with that tenant, immediately upon receipt of a demand
by Administrative Agent to make such payment or perform such obligations. Borrower hereby waives any right, claim or demand it may now or hereafter have against any such tenant by reason of such payment of Rents and Profits or performance of
obligations to Administrative Agent, and any such payment or performance to Administrative Agent shall discharge the obligations of the tenant to make such payment or performance to Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and hold
Administrative Agent harmless from and against any and all claims, liability, damage, cost and expense (including attorney’s fees) which may be asserted against or incurred by Administrative Agent by reason of any obligations of Borrower to
perform any provision of any lease. Administrative Agent may apply the Rents and Profits received by Administrative Agent to the payment of any one or more of the following, in such order and amounts as Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion,
may elect, whether or not the same be then due: the Indebtedness, liens on any of the Premises, impositions, claims, insurance premiums, other carrying charges, invoices of persons who at any time have supplied goods or services to or for the
benefit of any of the Premises, and all other costs and expenses of maintenance, repair, restoration, management, operation, ownership, use, leasing, occupancy, protection, security, insurance, alteration or improvement of any of the Premises, costs
of enforcing Administrative Agent’s rights under the Loan Documents, including any foreclosure sale hereunder, and including all attorneys fees and costs. Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, determine the method by which, and
extent to which, the Rents and Profits will be collected and obligations of tenants enforced; and Administrative Agent may waive or fail to perform or enforce any provision of any lease. Administrative Agent shall not be accountable for any Rents
and Profits or other sums it does not actually receive. Borrower hereby appoints Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact effective upon an Event of Default to perform all acts which Borrower is required or permitted to perform under any and all
leases. 
  
 (e) Administrative Agent may, without
releasing Borrower or any obligor or guarantor of any of the Indebtedness from any obligations under any of the Loan Documents and without waiving any Event of Default, enter upon and take possession of the Premises or any portion thereof, with or
without legal action and by force if necessary, or have a receiver appointed without proof of depreciation or inadequacy of the value of the Premises, the insolvency of Borrower, or any other proof. Administrative Agent or said receiver may manage
and operate the Premises, make, cancel, enforce or modify the leases or any of them, obtain and 

  

 -8- 

 
evict tenants, establish or change the amount of any Rents and Profits, and perform any acts and advance any sums which Administrative Agent deems proper to
protect the security of this Mortgage, all such sums to be payable on demand, together with interest thereon at the default rate specified in Section 2.7 of the Credit Agreement, from the date of such demand, and such sums and interest to be secured
by this Mortgage. 
  
 (f) Administrative Agent
may take possession of the Premises or any portion thereof, and may use and deal with the same to the same extent as Borrower is entitled to so do and may sell the same pursuant to law and exercise such other rights and remedies with respect to the
same as may be provided by law, and file such continuation statements which it deems desirable. 
  
 4.2 Application of Proceeds. Unless otherwise provided for in the Credit Agreement or required by applicable law, the proceeds of any sale of, and
the Rents and Profits and other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, management, operation or other use of, the Premises, shall be applied by Administrative Agent (or the receiver if one is appointed) in the following order: 
  
 (a) to the payment of the costs and expenses actually
incurred by Administrative Agent in taking possession of the Premises and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving and selling the same, including, without limitation: (1) receiver’s reasonable fees and expenses, (2) court costs, (3)
reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses, (4) costs of advertisement, and (5) the payment of all ground rent, real estate taxes and assessments, except any taxes, assessments or other charges subject to which the Premises
shall have been sold; 
  
 (b) to the payment of
all amounts (including interest), other than the unpaid principal balance of the Loans and accrued but unpaid interest, which may be due to Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents; 
  
 (c) to the payment of the Obligations and performance of the Covenants under the Loan Documents in such
manner and order of preference as Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may determine; and 
  
 (d) the balance, if any, to such persons as are legally entitled thereto. 
  
 ARTICLE V 
  
 Additional Rights and Remedies of the Administrative Agent 
  
 5.1 Rights Upon Maturity or an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent,
immediately and without notice and without liability therefor to the Borrower and to the extent permitted by law, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, may do or cause to be done any or all of the following: (a) take physical
possession of the Premises; (b) exercise its right to collect the Rents and Profits; (c) enter into contracts for the completion, repair and maintenance of the Improvements thereon; (d) expend Loan funds and any rents, income and profits derived
from the Premises for payment of any taxes, insurance premiums, assessments and charges for 

  

 -9- 

 
completion, repair and maintenance of the Improvements, preservation of the lien of this Mortgage and satisfaction and fulfillment of any liabilities or
obligations of the Borrower arising out of or in any way connected with the construction of Improvements on the Premises whether or not such liabilities and obligations in any way affect, or may affect, the lien of this Mortgage; (e) enter into
leases demising the Premises or any part thereof; (f) take such steps to protect and enforce the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement in the Notes, this Mortgage, the Credit Agreement, or the other Loan Documents, or to aid
the execution of any power herein granted; and (g) generally, supervise, manage, and contract with reference to the Premises as if the Administrative Agent were equitable owner of the Premises. The Borrower also agrees that any of the foregoing
rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent may be exercised at any time independently of the exercise of any other such rights and remedies, and the Administrative Agent may continue to exercise any or all such rights and remedies until the
Event(s) of Default are cured or waived with the consent of the Required Lenders or the Lenders (as required by the Credit Agreement) or until foreclosure and the conveyance of the Premises or until the Loans and Letters of Credit and the other
Indebtedness are otherwise satisfied or paid in full and the Commitments are terminated. 
  
 5.2 Appointment of Receiver. If upon the maturity of any of the Loans or Letters of Credit or any other amounts or obligations under the Loan Documents, the same remain unpaid, or upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent as a matter of right and without notice to Borrower shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver or receivers for all or any part of the Premises, to take possession of and to
operate the Premises, and to collect the rents, issues, profits, and income thereof, all expenses of which shall be added to the Indebtedness, whether such receivership be incident to a proposed sale (or sales) of such property or otherwise, and
without regard to the value of the Premises or the solvency of any Person or Persons liable for the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, and the Borrower does hereby irrevocably consent to the appointment of such receiver or receivers, waives
any and all defenses to such appointment, and agrees not to oppose any application therefor by Administrative Agent. Nothing herein is to be construed to deprive the Administrative Agent of any other right, remedy or privilege it may have under the
law to have a receiver appointed. Any money advanced by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such receivership shall be a demand obligation (which obligation the Borrower hereby promises to pay) owing by the Borrower to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to this Mortgage. 
  
 5.3 Waivers. No waiver
of any Event of Default shall at any time thereafter be held to be a waiver of any rights of the Administrative Agent stated anywhere in the Notes, this Mortgage, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, nor shall any waiver of a
prior Event of Default operate to waive any subsequent Event(s) of Default. All remedies provided in this Mortgage, in the Notes, in the Credit Agreement and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and may, at the election of the Administrative
Agent, be exercised alternatively, successively, or in any manner and are in addition to any other rights provided by law. 
  
 5.4 Delivery of Possession After Foreclosure. In the event there is a foreclosure sale hereunder and at the time of such sale, the Borrower or the
Borrower’s heirs, devises, representatives, successors or assigns are occupying or using the Premises, or any part thereof, each and all immediately shall become the tenant of the purchaser at such sale, which tenancy shall be a tenancy from
day to day, terminable at the will of either landlord or tenant, at a 

  

 -10- 

 
reasonable rental per day based upon the value of the property occupied, such rental to be due daily to the purchaser; and to the extent permitted by
applicable law, the purchaser at such sale, notwithstanding any language herein apparently to the contrary, shall have the sole option to demand possession immediately following the sale or to permit the occupants to remain as tenants at will. In
the event the tenant fails to surrender possession of said property upon demand, the purchaser shall be entitled to institute and maintain a summary action for possession of the property (such as an action for forcible detainer) in any court having
jurisdiction. 
  
 5.5 Marshaling. The Borrower hereby
waives, in the event of foreclosure of this Mortgage or the enforcement by the Administrative Agent of any other rights and remedies hereunder, any right otherwise available in respect to marshaling of assets which secure the Loans and Letters of
Credit and any other Indebtedness or to require the Administrative Agent to pursue its remedies against any other such assets.

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This letter is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(i) of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this letter are used as defined in the Credit

 The foregoing agreements referred to in clauses (1) through (7) above are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents” and the Loan Documents, the Notes and the Mortgages are collectively called the
“Operative Documents”. 
  
 In our examination, we have assumed:

  

	(i)	the genuineness of all signatures of all parties other than the signatures of the Loan Parties, 

  

	(ii)	the authenticity of all company and corporate records, agreements, documents, instruments and certificates submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents and
agreements of all documents and agreements submitted to us as conformed, certified or photostatic copies thereof and the authenticity of the originals of such conformed, certified or photostatic copies, 

  

	(iii)	the due authorization of all documents and agreements by all parties thereto other than the Loan Parties and the execution and delivery of all documents and agreements by all
parties other than the Loan Parties, 

  

	(iv)	the legal right and power of all such parties other than the Loan Parties under all applicable laws and regulations to enter into, execute and deliver such agreements and documents,

  

 September 30, 2004 
 Page 4 
  

	(y)	the legality, validity and enforceability of the Operative Documents against the parties thereto other than the Loan Parties, and 

  

	(z)	that the Notes, when executed and delivered, will be in the form reviewed by us. 

  
 As to questions of fact material to the opinions expressed in this letter, we have, when relevant facts were not independently established
by us, relied upon representations of the Loan Parties and their respective officers made in or pursuant to the Operative Documents and of public officials. 
  
 As used herein, the term “Applicable Laws” means the federal laws of the United States of America and the laws of the State of New York which, in our
experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Operative Documents and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. The term “Governmental Approval” means any consent, approval, license,
authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, any Governmental Authority pursuant to the Applicable Laws. 
  
 Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, limitations, qualifications and exceptions set forth below, we are of the opinion that: 
  

	1.	Each Delaware Loan Party is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, based on our review of the applicable Charters and the
Delaware Good Standing Certificates. Spinneybeck is a corporation validly existing under the laws of the State of New York, based on our review of the applicable Charter and the New York Good Standing Certificate. Each Loan Party has all requisite
corporate power and authority to own, operate and encumber its property and to conduct its business as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted in connection with and following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by each of
the Operative Documents to which it is a party. 

  

	2.	Each Loan Party has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver the Operative Documents to which it is a party and to perform its respective obligations under
each such Operative Document and, in the case of the Borrower, to borrow under the Credit Agreement. The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of the Operative Documents to which it is a party and the performance by each such person of its
respective obligations under each Loan Document have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of such person. 

  

	3.	 Each of the Operative Documents (other than the Notes) to which any Loan Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of such person. Each of
the Loan Documents (other than the Notes) to which any Loan Party is a party constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such person, enforceable against such person in accordance with its terms. The Notes, when executed and delivered by
the Borrower, 

  

 September 30, 2004 
 Page 5 
  

	 	 
will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their terms.

  

	4.	The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Operative Documents to which such person is a party do not and will not (i) violate the Charter, bylaws or other
constituent documents of such person, (ii) violate any provision of the Applicable Laws binding on such person or any order or decree thereunder of which we have knowledge of any court or government agency or instrumentality binding upon such
person, (iii) result in a breach of, or give rise to a default under or to any right to require prepayment, repurchase or redemption of any obligation under any contractual obligation known to us that is material to the Borrower and its subsidiaries
taken as a whole to which such Loan Party is a party or by which any of them or any of their property is or may be bound, (iv) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of such Loan Party, other
than Liens contemplated by the Loan Documents, or (v) require any approval of any stockholder of such Loan Party which has not been obtained. 

  

	5.	The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Operative Documents to which such person is a party and the grant of the security interests under the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement do not and will not require any Governmental Approval, except (i) filings necessary to perfect, or to continue the perfection of, security interests in the Collateral, (ii) routine corporate filings required to be made after the
date hereof to maintain good standing and to maintain or renew licenses and permits required for any Loan Party to operate their respective businesses in the ordinary course of business, (iii) supplements to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement
required therein in respect of certain collateral, including commercial tort claims and registered Copyrights, and (iv) Governmental Approvals required for the exercise by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of their rights and remedies under
the Loan Documents. 

  

	6.	Neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor is (i) an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended or (ii) a “holding
company”, or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company”, or an “affiliate” of a “holding company”, within the meaning of, or is otherwise subject to regulation under, the Public Utility Holding Company
Act of 1935, as amended. The making of Loans under the Credit Agreement and the application of the proceeds thereof as provided in the Credit Agreement will not violate Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Board.

  

	7.	 The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement creates valid and enforceable security interests, as security for the Obligations, in favor of the Administrative Agent for
the benefit of the Secured Parties in those items and types of Collateral (as such term is defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) specified therein in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code, as in effect on 

  

 September 30, 2004 
 Page 6 
  

	 	 
the date hereof (the “NYUCC”) (such collateral being herein called the “Covered Collateral”). 

 

	8.	The security interests created in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the shares of Equity Interests listed in Schedule II of the Guarantee
and Collateral Agreement (the “Pledged Shares”) and in the promissory notes evidencing intercompany Indebtedness listed in Schedule II of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (the “Pledged Notes”) pursuant to the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement will be perfected by the Administrative Agent taking possession in the State of New York of the stock certificates evidencing such Pledged Shares, together with stock powers executed in blank, and the Pledged
Notes, together with instruments of transfer endorsed in blank, and, if the Administrative Agent obtains such perfected security interest without “notice of an adverse claim” (as defined in Section 8-105 of the NYUCC) and, in the case of
the Pledged Notes, if such notes constitute “securities” (as defined in Section 8-102 of the NYUCC), the Administrative Agent will obtain such security interest free of any such “adverse claim” (as defined in Section 8-102 of the
NYUCC). 

  

	9.	Upon the filing of the IP Security Agreements in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of
the Secured Parties will have a valid and perfected security interest in the Copyright Collateral, Trademark Collateral or Patent Collateral (as applicable and as defined in the applicable IP Security Agreement) to the extent federal law is
applicable thereto. 

  

	10.	The Spinneybeck Financing Statement is in proper form for filing under the NYUCC. Upon the filing of the Spinneybeck Financing Statements in the office of the Secretary of State of
the State of New York, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders will have a perfected security interest in the Covered Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected through the filing of financing statements under Article 9
of the NYUCC. We note that subsequent filings or recordings under the NYUCC will be necessary to preserve and maintain the perfection of such security interest to the extent such security interest is perfected by the filing of the Spinneybeck
Financing Statement, including, without limitation, filings required by Section 9-301, 9-315(d), 9-316, 9-507, 9-508 and 9-515 of the NYUCC. 

  

	11.	 The Borrower Financing Statement is in proper form for filing under the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code (the “Delaware UCC”). Upon the filing of
the Borrower Financing Statement in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders will have a perfected security interest in the Covered Collateral in which a security interest
may be perfected through the filing of financing statements under Article 9 of the Delaware UCC. The Knoll Overseas Financing Statement is in proper form for filing under the Delaware UCC. Upon the filing of the Knoll Overseas Financing Statement in
the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders 

  

 September 30, 2004 
 Page 7 
  

	 	 
will have a perfected security interest in the Covered Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected through the filing of financing statements
under Article 9 of the Delaware UCC. We note that subsequent filings or recordings under the Delaware UCC will be necessary to preserve and maintain the perfection of such security interests to the extent such security interests are perfected by the
filing of such Financing Statements, including, without limitation, filings required by Section 9-301, 9-315(d), 9-316, 9-507, 9-508 and 9-515 of the Delaware UCC. 

  

	12.	To our knowledge, except as disclosed in the Credit Agreement, there are no actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority
now pending or threatened against or affecting any Loan Party that involve or relate to any of the Operative Documents or the Transactions. 

  
 The foregoing opinions are subject to the following assumptions, qualifications and exceptions: 
  

	A.	We wish to point out that Sections 9-301 through 9-307 of the NYUCC provide certain rules for the perfection of security interests in multiple state transactions. Such rules provide
that the law of jurisdictions other than those covered in the opinions expressed herein may govern the perfection of the security interests created by the Loan Documents and the effect of perfection or non-perfection. 

  

	B.	We note that the validity, perfection and enforceability of a security interest in after acquired property, money, or certain securities or instruments are subject to limitations
under the Bankruptcy Code (including Section 552), and we express no opinion with respect thereto. We also note that the security interest in the proceeds of any Collateral may be subject to Section 9-315 of the NYUCC or the Delaware UCC. In
addition, no opinion is expressed with respect to (i) security interests of the Administrative Agent in any insurance policy, other than “health-care-insurance receivables” (as defined in the NYUCC), (ii) security interests of the
Administrative Agent in tort claims (other than commercial tort claims which are specifically identified in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), (iii) the perfection of any security interest, except as set forth in paragraphs 9, 10 and 11 above
or (iv) any security interest in collateral described in Section 4.1(a)(xvi) of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as “property” generally. No opinion is expressed as to the enforceability of Section 2.7 of the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement. 

  

	C.	We call to your attention that in many cases where the NYUCC renders anti-assignment provisions contained in agreements, instruments or other documentation creating or evidencing
collateral ineffective for the purposes of the creation, attachment or perfection of a security interest, the security interest is not enforceable against the account debtor or other person obligated under such agreement, instrument or other
documentation. 

  

 September 30, 2004 
 Page 8 
  

	D.	The opinions set forth in paragraphs 3 and 4 above are subject to (i) provisions of Section 9-615 of the NYUCC which limit the ability of a secured party to collect a deficiency
from a “debtor” or “obligor” (including guarantors) in the event a sale of collateral is not conducted in a commercially reasonable manner or in the event of certain dispositions to the secured party or a person related to a
secured party, (ii) provisions of any Loan Document which purport to define whether any disposition constitutes a commercially reasonable disposition and (iii) provisions of any Loan Document which purport to waive any rights of the Borrower or any
other obligor or duties of any Secured Party, in violation of Section 9-602 of the NYUCC. We note that sales by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party under the Loan Documents of Collateral constituting securities under applicable
federal or state securities laws require compliance with such laws or an exemption therefrom. 

  

	E.	The opinions expressed in paragraph 3 above are qualified (i) by the effects of applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) insofar as the remedies of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and the discretion of the
court before which any enforcement thereof may be brought and (iii) insofar as proceedings therefore may be limited by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity),
including principles of commercial reasonableness and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Such principles of equity are of general application, and in applying such principles, a court, among other things, might not allow a creditor
to accelerate the maturity of a debt, to realize upon any security for the payment of such debt upon the occurrence of a default deemed immaterial, or to exercise any right of set-off with respect to debt which is neither matured nor accelerated, or
might decline to order the applicable Loan Party to specifically perform covenants. Insofar as provisions provide for indemnification, the enforcement thereof may be limited by public policy considerations. Such opinions are further subject to the
qualification that certain remedial provisions of the Loan Documents are or may be unenforceable in whole or in part under the laws of the State of New York, but the inclusion of such provisions does not affect the validity of any Loan Document in
which any such provision is included, and such Loan Documents contain adequate provisions for enforcing payment of the obligations thereunder and for the practical realization of the rights and benefits afforded thereby. 

  

	F.	When used in this letter, the phrases “known to us” and “to our knowledge” mean the current actual knowledge of attorneys within our firm who are actively
involved in representing the Loan Parties in connection with the matters referred to herein. 

  

	G.	 We express no opinion as to (i) whether any person has title to any Collateral, or, except as set forth in paragraph 8 above, as to the priority of any such
security interest, (ii) any provisions of the Loan Documents insofar as they relate to (1) the subject matter 

  

 September 30, 2004 
 Page 9 
  

	 	 
jurisdiction of the federal courts to adjudicate any controversy relating to the Loan Documents, (2) the waiver of defenses and the waiver of inconvenient
forum, (3) the waiver of the right to a jury trial, or (4) rights of set-off, (iii) any provisions of any Loan Document which purport to provide for a rate of interest after judgment, or (iv) the provisions of the last sentence of Section 5.1 of the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and similar provisions in any other Loan Document. We have also assumed that none of the Covered Collateral consists of as-extracted collateral located in the State of Delaware or the State of New York or timber to
be cut located in the State of Delaware or the State of New York or fixtures located in the State of Delaware or the State of New York or goods that are or are to become fixtures located in the State of Delaware or the State of New York.

  

	H.	In connection with our opinion expressed in paragraph 4 above, we have assumed that Borrower will repay all amounts owing under the Existing Credit Agreement simultaneously with or
prior to the incurrence of Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement. 

  

	I.	The opinions set forth in paragraphs 8, 10 and 11 above are limited to Articles 8 and 9 of the Delaware UCC or the NYUCC, as applicable. No opinion is given as to what law governs
perfection or priority of the security interests granted in the Collateral covered by this letter. 

  
 This letter is limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated. This letter may not be quoted,
distributed or disclosed, except to your counsel, to participants or assignees or, to the extent necessary, to an applicable regulatory authority or pursuant to legal process, without our prior written consent. 
  
 This letter speaks only as of the date hereof and is limited to present statutes, regulations
and administrative and judicial interpretations. We undertake no responsibility to update or supplement this letter after the date hereof, including without limitation with respect to any action which may be required in the future to create a valid
lien on after acquired property or to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest, including after a change in the name, identity, corporate structure or location of any Loan Party. 
  
 We are members of the bar of the State of New York and we express no opinion as to the laws
of any jurisdiction other than the Applicable Laws and, as to paragraph 11 above, the Delaware UCC (but not any regulations thereunder or judicial interpretations thereof) based upon the most recent compilation of the Delaware UCC contained in the
Commerce Clearing House Secured Transactions Guide.
