 Section 2.1 Revolving Loans. 
 (a) Revolving Loans and Borrowings. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make Loans to Borrowers from time to time as set forth herein (each
a “Revolving Loan”, and collectively, “Revolving Loans”) equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of Revolving Loans requested by Borrower hereunder, provided, however, that after giving effect thereto,
the Revolving Loan Outstandings shall not exceed the Revolving Loan Limit. Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing with respect to each proposed Revolving Loan Borrowing, such Notice of Borrowing to be delivered no
later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Business Day of such proposed borrowing. Each Borrower and each Revolving Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to make Revolving Loans on behalf of Revolving Lenders, at any time in its sole
discretion, (A) as provided in Section 2.5(c), with respect to obligations arising under Support Agreements and/or Lender Letters of Credit, and (B) to pay principal owing in respect of the Loans and interest, fees, expenses and other
charges of any Credit Party from time to time arising under this Agreement or any other Financing Document. The Borrowing Base shall be determined by Administrative Agent based on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered to
Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement and such other information as may be available to Administrative Agent. Without limiting any other rights and remedies of Administrative Agent hereunder or under the other Financing Documents,
the Revolving Loans shall be subject to Administrative Agent’s continuing right to withhold from the Borrowing Base reserves, and to increase and decrease such reserves from time to time, if and to the extent that in Administrative Agent’s
good faith credit judgment and discretion, such reserves are necessary. 
 (b) Mandatory Revolving Loan Repayments and
Prepayments. 
 (i) The Revolving Loan Commitment shall terminate on the Termination Date. On such
Termination Date, there shall become due, and Borrowers shall pay, the entire outstanding principal amount of each Revolving Loan, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Termination Date. 
 (ii) If at any time the Revolving Loan Outstandings exceed the Revolving Loan Limit, then, on the next succeeding Business Day, Borrowers
shall repay the Revolving Loans or cash collateralize Letter of Credit Liabilities in the manner specified in Section 2.5(e) or cancel outstanding Letters of Credit, or any combination of the foregoing, in an aggregate amount equal to such
excess. 
 (iii) Principal payable on account of Revolving Loans shall be payable by Borrowers to Administrative Agent
(A) immediately upon the receipt by any Borrower or Administrative Agent of any payments on or proceeds from any of the Accounts, to the extent of such payments or proceeds, as further described in Section 2.9 below, and (B) in full
on the Termination Date. 
 (c) Optional Prepayments. Borrowers may from time to time prepay the
Revolving Loans in whole or in part; provided, however, that any such partial prepayment shall be in an amount equal to $100,000 or a higher integral multiple of $25,000. 
 Section 2.2 Interest, Interest Calculations and Certain Fees. 
 (a)
Interest. From and following the Closing Date, the Loans and the other Obligations shall bear interest at the sum of the Base Rate plus the applicable Base Rate Margin. Interest on the Loans shall be paid in arrears on the
first (1st) day of each month and on the maturity of such Loans, whether by acceleration or otherwise. For purposes of calculating interest, all funds transferred from the Payment Account for application to any Revolving Loans shall be subject
to a two (2) Business Day clearance period. 
 (b) Unused Line Fee. From and following the
Closing Date, Borrowers shall pay Administrative Agent, for the benefit of all Lenders committed to make Revolving Loans, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, a fee in an amount equal to (i) (A) the Revolving Loan
Commitment minus (B) the average daily balance of the sum of the Revolving Loan Outstandings during the preceding month, multiplied by (ii) 0.504% per annum. Such fee is to be paid monthly in arrears on the first day of each month.

 (c) Collateral Fee. From and following the Closing Date, Borrowers shall pay Administrative
Agent, for its own account and not for the benefit of any other Lenders, a fee in an amount equal to $2,000. Such fee is to be paid monthly in arrears on the first day of each month.

execution of this Agreement, Borrowers shall pay Administrative Agent, for the benefit of all Lenders committed to make Revolving Loans on the Closing Date, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, a fee in an amount equal to
(i) the Revolving Loan Commitment, multiplied by (ii) one percent (1.0%). All fees payable pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed fully earned and non-refundable as of the Closing Date. 
 (e) Deferred Revolving Loan Commitment Fee. If Lenders’ funding obligations in respect of
the Revolving Loan Commitment under this Agreement terminate for any reason (whether by voluntary termination by Borrowers, by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise) prior to the Commitment Expiry Date, Borrowers shall pay to
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of all Lenders committed to make Revolving Loans on the Closing Date, a fee as compensation for the costs of such Lenders being prepared to make funds available to Borrowers under this Agreement, equal to an
amount determined by multiplying the Revolving Loan Commitment by the following applicable percentage amount: three percent (3.0%) for the first year following the Closing Date, two percent (2.0%) for the second year following the Closing
Date, and one percent (1.0%) thereafter. All fees payable pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed fully earned and non-refundable as of the Closing Date. 
 (f) RESERVED 
 (g) RESERVED 
 (h) Audit Fees. Borrowers
shall pay to Administrative Agent, for its own account and not for the benefit of any other Lenders, all reasonable fees and expenses in connection with audits of Borrowers’ books and records, audits, valuations or appraisals of the Collateral,
audits of Borrowers’ compliance with applicable Laws and such other matters as Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate, which shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of the month following the date of issuance by Administrative
Agent of a written request for payment thereof to Borrowers; provided, that so long as no Event of Default or Default has occurred, Borrowers shall be liable for such fees and expenses for no more than two (2) such audits in any given calendar
year in an amount not to exceed $40,000 per calendar year. 
 (i) Wire Fees. Borrowers shall pay to
Administrative Agent, for its own account and not for the account of any other Lenders, on written demand, any and all fees, costs or expenses which Administrative Agent pays to a bank or other similar institution (including, without limitation, any
fees paid by Administrative Agent to any other Lender) arising out of or in connection with (i) the forwarding to Borrowers or any other Person on behalf of Borrowers, by Administrative Agent, of proceeds of the Loans made by any Lender to
Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement, and (ii) the depositing for collection, by Administrative Agent, of any check or item of payment received or delivered to Administrative Agent on account of Obligations. 
 (j) Late Charges. If payments of principal (other than a final installment of principal upon the Termination Date),
interest due on the Obligations, or any other amounts due hereunder or under the other Financing Documents are not timely made and remain overdue for a period of five (5) days, Borrowers, without notice or demand by Administrative Agent,
promptly shall pay to Administrative Agent, for its own account and not for the benefit of any other Lenders, as additional compensation to Administrative Agent in administering the Obligations, an amount equal to five percent (5.0%) of each
delinquent payment. 
 (k) Computation of Interest and Related Fees. All interest and fees under each
Financing Document shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. The date of funding of a Loan shall be included in the calculation of interest. The date of payment of a Loan shall be excluded from the
calculation of interest. If a Loan is repaid on the same day that it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be charged. 
 (l) Automated Clearing House Payments. If Administrative Agent so elects, monthly payments of interest shall be paid to Administrative Agent by Automated Clearing House debit of immediately available funds from the financial
institution account designated by Borrower Representative in the Automated Clearing House debit authorization executed by Borrowers or Borrower Representative in connection with this Agreement, and shall be effective upon receipt. Borrowers shall
execute any and all forms and documentation necessary from time to time to effectuate such automatic debiting. In no event shall any such payments be refunded to Borrowers.

 Section 2.3 Notes. The portion of the Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced, if so
requested by such Lender, by one or more promissory notes executed by Borrowers on a joint and several basis (each, a “Note”) in an original principal amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan Commitment.

 Section 2.4 RESERVED 
 Section 2.5 Letters of Credit and Letter of Credit Fees. 
 (a) Letter of
Credit. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Revolving Loan Commitment may be used by Borrowers, in addition to the making of Revolving Loans hereunder, for the issuance, prior to the Termination Date, by
(i) Administrative Agent, of letters of credit, Guarantees or other agreements or arrangements (each, a “Support Agreement”) to induce an LC Issuer to issue or increase the amount of, or extend the expiry date of, one or more Letters
of Credit and (ii) a Lender, identified by Administrative Agent, as an LC Issuer, of one or more Lender Letters of Credit, so long as, in each case: 
 (i) Administrative Agent shall have received a Notice of LC Credit Event at least five (5) Business Days before the relevant date of issuance, increase or extension; and 
 (ii) after giving effect to such issuance, increase or extension, (A) the aggregate Letter of Credit Liabilities under all Letters of
Credit do not exceed $3,000,000, and (B) the Revolving Loan Outstandings do not exceed the Revolving Loan Limit. 
 Nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed to obligate any Lender to issue, increase the amount of or extend the expiry date of any letter of credit, which act or acts, if any, shall be subject to agreements to be entered into from time to time between Borrowers and such Lender.
Each Lender that is an LC Issuer hereby agrees to give Administrative Agent prompt written notice of each issuance of a Lender Letter of Credit by such Lender and each payment made by such Lender in respect of Lender Letters of Credit issued by such
Lender. 
 (b) Letter of Credit Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, a letter of credit fee with respect to the Letter of Credit Liabilities for each Letter of Credit, computed for each day from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to the
date that is the last day a drawing is available under such Letter of Credit, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate Margin then applicable to Revolving Loans. Such fee shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar month prior to
the Termination Date and on such date. In addition, Borrowers agree to pay promptly to the LC Issuer any fronting or other fees that it may charge in connection with any Letter of Credit. 
 (c) Reimbursement Obligations of Borrowers. If either (i) Administrative Agent shall make a payment to an LC
Issuer pursuant to a Support Agreement, or (ii) any Lender shall honor any draw request under, and make payment in respect of, a Lender Letter of Credit, (A) the applicable Borrower shall reimburse Administrative Agent or such Lender, as
applicable, for the amount of such payment by the end of the day on which Administrative Agent or such Lender shall make such payment and (B) Borrowers shall be deemed to have immediately requested that Revolving Lenders make a Revolving Loan,
in a principal amount equal to the amount of such payment (but solely to the extent such Borrower shall have failed to directly reimburse Administrative Agent or, with respect to Lender Letters of Credit, the applicable LC Issuer, for the amount of
such payment). Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Revolving Lenders of any such deemed request and each Revolving Lender (other than any such Revolving Lender that was a Non-Funding Lender at the time the applicable Supported Letter of
Credit or Lender Letter of Credit was issued) hereby agrees to make available to Administrative Agent not later than noon (Chicago time) on the Business Day following such notification from Administrative Agent such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata
Share of such Revolving Loan. Each Revolving Lender (other than any applicable Non-Funding Lender specified above) hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to fund such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan described in the
immediately preceding sentence, unaffected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, (x) the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (y) the fact that, whether before or after giving effect to the
making of any such Revolving Loan, the Revolving Loan Outstandings exceed or will exceed the Revolving Loan Limit, and/or (z) the non-satisfaction of any conditions set forth in Section 7.2. Administrative Agent hereby agrees to apply the
gross proceeds of each Revolving Loan deemed made pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) in satisfaction of Borrowers’ reimbursement

obligations arising pursuant to this Section 2.5(c). Borrowers shall pay interest, on demand, on all amounts so paid by Administrative Agent pursuant to
any Support Agreement or to any applicable Lender in honoring a draw request under any Lender Letter of Credit for each day from the date of such payment until Borrowers reimburse Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender therefore (whether
pursuant to clause (A) or (B) of the first sentence of this subsection (c)) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of two percent (2%) plus the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans for such day. 
 (d) Reimbursement and Other Payments by Borrowers. The obligations of each Borrower to reimburse Administrative Agent
and/or the applicable LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.5(c) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including the
following: 
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of, or any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from,
any Letter of Credit or any related document; 
 (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any
Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, the LC Issuer (including any claim for improper payment), Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with any Financing Document or any
unrelated transaction, provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; 
 (iii) any statement or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient
in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; 
 (iv) any affiliation between
the LC Issuer and Administrative Agent; or 
 (v) to the extent permitted under applicable law, any other circumstance or
happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
 (e) Deposit Obligations of
Borrowers. In the event any Letters of Credit are outstanding at the time that Borrowers prepay in full or are required to repay the Obligations or the Revolving Loan Commitment is terminated, Borrowers shall (i) deposit with
Administrative Agent for the benefit of all Revolving Lenders cash in an amount equal to one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the aggregate outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities to be available to Administrative Agent, for its benefit and
the benefit of issuers of Letters of Credit, to reimburse payments of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit and pay any fees and expenses related thereto, and (ii) prepay the fee payable under Section 2.5(b) with respect to such
Letters of Credit for the full remaining terms of such Letters of Credit assuming that the full amount of such Letters of Credit as of the date of such repayment or termination remain outstanding until the end of such remaining terms. Upon
termination of any such Letter of Credit and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the unearned portion of such prepaid fee attributable to such Letter of Credit shall be refunded to Borrowers, together with the deposit
described in the preceding clause (i) to the extent not previously applied by Administrative Agent in the manner described herein. 
 Section 2.6 General Provisions Regarding Payment; Loan Account. 
 (a) All payments to be made by each
Borrower under any Financing Document, including payments of principal and interest made hereunder and pursuant to any other Financing Document, and all fees, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made without set-off, recoupment or
counterclaim, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with
respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension (it being understood and agreed that, solely for purposes of calculating financial covenants and computations contained herein and
determining compliance therewith, if payment is made, in full, on any such extended due date, such payment shall be deemed to have been paid on the original due date without giving effect to any extension thereto). Any payments received in the
Payment Account before 3:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on any date shall be deemed received by Administrative Agent on such date, and any payments received in the Payment Account after 3:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on any date shall be deemed received by
Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day.

 Portions of this Exhibit were omitted and have been filed separately with the Secretary of the

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 (b) Administrative Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on
its books to record Loans and other extensions of credit made by the Lenders hereunder or under any other Financing Document, and all payments thereon made by each Borrower. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with
Administrative Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded in Administrative Agent’s books and records at any time shall be conclusive and binding evidence of the
amounts due and owing to Administrative Agent by each Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect any Borrower’s duty to pay all
amounts owing hereunder or under any other Financing Document. Administrative Agent shall endeavor to provide Borrowers with a monthly statement regarding the Loan Account (but neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability if
Administrative Agent shall fail to provide any such statement). Unless any Borrower notifies Administrative Agent of any objection to any such statement (specifically describing the basis for such objection) within ninety (90) days after the
date of receipt thereof, it shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrowers in all respects as to all matters reflected therein. 
 Section 2.7 Maximum Interest. In no event shall the interest charged with respect to the Loans or any other Obligations of any Borrower under any Financing Document exceed the maximum amount permitted under the laws of the State
of Illinois or of any other applicable jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, if at any time the rate of interest payable hereunder or under any Note or other Financing Document (the “Stated Rate”)
would exceed the highest rate of interest permitted under any applicable law to be charged (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable shall be equal to the
Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, each Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, continue to pay interest at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as
the total interest received is equal to the total interest which would have been received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable. Thereafter, the interest rate payable shall be the Stated Rate
unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by any Lender exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received had the
interest been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If, notwithstanding the prior sentence, any Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, such excess amount shall be applied to the
reduction of the principal balance of the Loans or to other amounts (other than interest) payable hereunder, and if no such principal or other amounts are then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to Borrowers. In
computing interest payable with reference to the Maximum Lawful Rate applicable to any Lender, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is
made. 
 Section 2.8 Taxes; Capital Adequacy. 
 (a) All payments of principal and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp, documentary, payroll, employment, property or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, levies, assessments, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever (including
interest and penalties thereon) imposed by any taxing authority, excluding taxes imposed on or measured by Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s net income by the jurisdictions under which Administrative Agent or such Lender is organized
or conducts business (other than solely as the result of entering into any of the Financing Documents or taking any action thereunder) (all non-excluded items being called “Taxes”). If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be
made by any Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable Law, then Borrowers will: (i) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted; (ii) promptly
forward to Administrative Agent an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such authority; and (iii) pay to Administrative Agent for the account of Administrative Agent and Lenders
such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Administrative Agent and each Lender will equal the full amount Administrative Agent and such Lender would have received had no such withholding or
deduction been required. If any Taxes are directly asserted against Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any payment received by Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder,

 Portions of this Exhibit were omitted and have been filed separately with the Secretary of the

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 
Administrative Agent or such Lender may pay such Taxes and Borrowers will promptly pay such additional amounts (including any penalty, interest or expense)
as is necessary in order that the net amount received by such Person after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such Person would have received had such Taxes not been asserted so long as
such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which Administrative Agent or such Lender first made written demand therefor. 
 (b) If any Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Administrative Agent, for the
account of Administrative Agent and the respective Lenders, the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrowers shall indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become
payable by Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. 
 (c) Each Lender that (i) is organized
under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States, and (ii)(A) is a party hereto on the Closing Date or (B) purports to become an assignee of an interest as a Lender under this Agreement after the Closing Date (unless such
Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment) (each such Lender a “Foreign Lender”) shall execute and deliver to each of Borrowers and Administrative Agent one or more (as Borrowers or Administrative Agent may
reasonably request) United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI, W-8EXP, W-8BEN, W-8IMY (as applicable) and other applicable forms, certificates or documents prescribed by the United States Internal Revenue Service or reasonably requested by
Administrative Agent certifying as to such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from withholding or deduction of Taxes. Borrowers shall not be required to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.7 with
respect to United States withholding and income Taxes to the extent that the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for the failure of such Lender to comply with this paragraph other than as a result of a change in law.

 (d) If any Lender shall determine in its commercially reasonable judgment that the adoption or taking effect of, or any
change in, any applicable Law regarding capital adequacy, in each instance, after the Closing Date, or any change after the Closing Date in the interpretation, administration or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or
comparable agency charged with the interpretation, administration or application thereof, or the compliance by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any request, guideline or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not
having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency adopted or otherwise taking effect after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such
controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder or under any Support Agreement or Lender Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for
such adoption, taking effect, change, interpretation, administration, application or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) then from time to time, upon
written demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which shall be furnished to Administrative Agent),
Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is one hundred eighty (180) days
prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand therefor. 
 (e) If any Lender requires compensation under
Section 2.8(d), or requires any Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8(a), then, upon the written request of Borrower Representative, such
Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder (subject to the terms of this Agreement) to another of its offices, branches or
affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or materially reduce amounts payable pursuant to any such subsection, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such
Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender (as determined in its sole discretion). Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with
any such designation or assignment.

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 Section 2.9 Appointment of Borrower Representative. Each Borrower hereby designates Borrower
Representative as its representative and agent on its behalf for the purposes of issuing Notices of Borrowing, Notices of LC Credit Events and Borrowing Base Certificates, and giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of
the Loans, requesting Letters of Credit, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Financing Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any
Borrower or Borrowers under the Financing Documents. Borrower Representative hereby accepts such appointment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Borrower other than Borrower Representative shall be entitled to
take any of the foregoing actions. The proceeds of each Loan made hereunder shall be advanced to or at the direction of Borrower Representative and if not used by Borrower Representative in its business (for the purposes provided in this Agreement)
shall be deemed to be immediately advanced by Borrower Representative to the appropriate other Borrower hereunder as an intercompany loan (collectively, “Intercompany Loans”). All Letters of Credit and Support Agreements issued hereunder
shall be issued at Borrower Representative’s request therefor and shall be allocated to the appropriate Borrower’s Intercompany Loan account by Borrower Representative. All collections of each Borrower in respect of Accounts and other
proceeds of Collateral of such Borrower received by Administrative Agent and applied to the Obligations shall also be deemed to be repayments of the Intercompany Loans owing by such Borrower to Borrower Representative. Borrowers shall maintain
accurate books and records with respect to all Intercompany Loans and all repayments thereof. Administrative Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Financing Document from Borrower Representative as a
notice or communication from all Borrowers, and may give any notice or communication required or permitted to be given to any Borrower or all Borrowers hereunder to Borrower Representative on behalf of such Borrower or all Borrowers. Each Borrower
agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and
enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower. 
 Section 2.10 Joint
and Several Liability. Borrowers are defined collectively to include all Persons named as one of the Borrowers herein; provided, however, that any references herein to “any Borrower”, “each Borrower” or similar references,
shall be construed as a reference to each individual Person named as one of the Borrowers herein. Each Person so named shall be jointly and severally liable for all of the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement. Each Borrower, individually,
expressly understands, agrees and acknowledges, that the credit facilities would not be made available on the terms herein in the absence of the collective credit of all of the Persons named as the Borrowers herein, the joint and several liability
of all such Persons, and the cross-collateralization of the collateral of all such Persons. Accordingly, each Borrower, individually acknowledges that the benefit to each of the Persons named as one of the Borrowers as a whole constitutes reasonably
equivalent value, regardless of the amount of the credit facilities actually borrowed by, advanced to, or the amount of collateral provided by, any individual Borrower. In addition, each entity named as one of the Borrowers herein hereby
acknowledges and agrees that all of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, conditions, agreements and other terms contained in this Agreement shall be applicable to and shall be binding upon and measured and enforceable
individually against each Person named as one of the Borrowers herein as well as all such Persons when taken together. By way of illustration, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms of Section 10.1 of this Agreement are
to be applied to each individual Person named as one of the Borrowers herein (as well as to all such Persons taken as a whole), such that the occurrence of any of the events described in Section 10.1 of this Agreement as to any Person named as
one of the Borrowers herein shall constitute an Event of Default even if such event has not occurred as to any other Persons named as the Borrowers or as to all such Persons taken as a whole. 
 Section 2.11 Collections and Lockbox Account. 
 (a) Borrowers shall maintain a lockbox (the “Lockbox”) with a United States depository institution designated from time to time by Administrative Agent (the “Lockbox Bank”), subject to the
provisions of this Agreement, and shall execute with the Lockbox Bank a Deposit Account Control Agreement and such other agreements related to such Lockbox as Administrative Agent may require. Subject to Section 2.11(e) below, Borrowers shall
ensure that all collections of Accounts are paid directly from Account Debtors into the Lockbox for deposit into the Lockbox Account, (ii) directly into the Lockbox Account,. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrowers agree to use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause collections of all Accounts to be paid directly by Account Debtors into the Lockbox or the Lockbox Account, as the case may be, within 90 days from the Closing Date 
  

 25 
  

 Portions of this Exhibit were omitted and have been filed separately with the Secretary of the

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 (b) All funds deposited into a Lockbox Account shall be transferred into the Payment
Account by the close of each Business Day. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything in any lockbox agreement or Deposit Account Control
Agreement to the contrary, Borrowers agree that they shall be liable for any fees and charges in effect from time to time and charged by the Lockbox Bank in connection with the Lockbox and the Lockbox Account, and that Administrative Agent shall
have no liability therefor. Borrowers hereby indemnify and agree to hold Administrative Agent harmless from any and all liabilities, claims, losses and demands whatsoever, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, arising from or
relating to actions of Administrative Agent or the Lockbox Bank pursuant to this Section or any lockbox agreement or Deposit Account Control Agreement or similar agreement, except to the extent of such losses arising solely from Administrative
Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 (d) Administrative Agent shall apply, on a daily basis, all funds
transferred into the Payment Account pursuant to this Section to reduce the outstanding Revolving Loans in such order of application as Administrative Agent shall elect. If as the result of collections of Accounts pursuant to the terms and
conditions of this Section a credit balance exists with respect to the Payment Account, such credit balance shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrowers, but Administrative Agent shall transfer such funds into an account designated by
Borrower Representative for so long as no Event of Default exists. 
 (e) To the extent that any collections of Accounts or
proceeds of other Collateral are not sent directly to the Lockbox but are received by any Borrower, such collections shall be held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent pursuant to an express trust created hereby and immediately remitted,
in the form received, to applicable Lockbox or Lockbox Account. No such funds received by any Borrower shall be commingled with other funds of the Borrowers. 
 (f) Borrowers acknowledge and agree that compliance with the terms of this Section is essential, and that Administrative Agent and
Lenders will suffer immediate and irreparable injury and have no adequate remedy at law, if any Borrower, through acts or omissions, causes or permits Account Debtors to send payments other than to the Lockbox, or if any Borrower fails to promptly
deposit collections of Accounts or proceeds of other Collateral in the Lockbox Account as herein required. Accordingly, in addition to all other rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder, Administrative Agent shall have the
right to seek specific performance of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Section, and any other equitable relief as Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate, and Borrowers waive any requirement for the posting of a bond in
connection with such equitable relief. 
 (g) Borrowers shall not, and Borrowers shall not suffer or permit any Credit Party
to, (i) withdraw any amounts from any Lockbox Account, (ii) change the procedures or sweep instructions under the agreements governing any Lockbox Accounts, or (iii) send to or deposit in any Lockbox Account any funds other than
payments made with respect to and proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral. Borrowers shall, and shall cause each Credit Party to, cooperate with Administrative Agent in the identification and reconciliation on a daily basis of all amounts received
in or required to be deposited into the Lockbox Accounts. If more than five percent (5%) of the collections of Accounts received by Borrowers during any given fifteen (15) day period is not identified or reconciled to the reasonable
satisfaction of Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of receipt, Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make further advances under this Agreement until such amount is identified or is reconciled to the reasonable
satisfaction of Administrative Agent, as the case may be. In addition, if any such amount cannot be identified or reconciled to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may utilize its own staff or, if it deems
necessary, engage an outside auditor, in either case at Borrowers’ expense (which in the case of Administrative Agent’s own staff shall be in accordance with Administrative Agent’s then prevailing customary charges (plus
expenses)), to make such examination and report as may be necessary to identify and reconcile such amount. 
 (h) If any
Borrower breaches its obligation to direct payments of the proceeds of the Collateral to the Lockbox Account, Administrative Agent, as the irrevocably made, constituted and appointed true and lawful attorney for Borrowers, may, by the signature or
other act of any of Administrative Agent’s officers (without requiring any of them to do so), direct any Account Debtor to pay proceeds of the Collateral to Borrowers by directing payment to the Lockbox Account.

not give rise to a right of termination in favor of any party to any Material Contract (other than any Credit Party), except for such Material Contracts the
noncompliance with which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 3.18 Compliance with
Environmental Requirements; No Hazardous Materials. 
 Except in each case as set forth on Schedule 3.18: 
 (a) no notice, notification, demand, request for information, citation, summons, complaint or order has been issued, no complaint has been

 (b) no
property now owned or leased by any Credit Party and, to the knowledge of each Borrower, no such property previously owned or leased by any Credit Party, to which any Credit Party has, directly or indirectly, transported or arranged for the

claims, including, without limitation, claims under CERCLA. 
 For purposes of this Section 3.18, each Credit Party shall be deemed to include any
business or business entity (including a corporation) that is, in whole or in part, a predecessor of such Credit Party. 
 Section 3.19 Intellectual Property. Each Credit Party owns, is licensed to use or otherwise has the right to use, all Intellectual Property that is material to the condition (financial or other), business or operations of such
Credit Party. All such Intellectual Property existing as of the Closing Date which is issued, registered or pending with any United States or foreign Governmental Authority is listed on Schedule 3.19. Such Schedule 3.19 indicates in
each case whether such registered Intellectual Property (or application therefore) is owned or licensed by such Credit Party, and in the case of any such licensed registered Intellectual Property (or application therefore) and lists the name and
address of the licensor and the name and date of the agreement pursuant to which such item of Intellectual Property is licensed. Except as indicated on Schedule 3.19, no Credit Party has granted licenses of any Intellectual Property in
favor of third parties. All registered Intellectual Property of each Credit Party is duly and properly registered, filed or issued in the appropriate office and jurisdictions for such registrations, filings or issuances, except where the failure to
do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrowers are not a party to, nor are bound by, any material license or other agreement with respect to which any Borrower is the licensee that prohibits or otherwise
restricts such Borrower from granting a security interest in such Borrower’s interest in such license or agreement or other property. Other than as described on Schedule 3.6, to such Borrower’s knowledge, each Credit Party conducts
its business without infringement or claim of infringement of any Intellectual Property rights of others and there is no infringement or claim of infringement by others of any Intellectual Property rights of any Credit Party, which infringement or
claim of infringement could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 3.20 Solvency. Each Borrower and
each additional Credit Party is Solvent. 
 Section 3.21 Full Disclosure. None of the written information (financial or
otherwise) furnished by or on behalf of any Credit Party to Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits
to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made. All financial projections delivered to Administrative Agent and the Lenders by
Borrowers (or their agents) have been prepared on the basis of the assumptions stated therein. Such projections represent each Borrower’s best estimate of such Borrower’s future financial performance and such

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 
assumptions are believed by such Borrower to be fair and reasonable in light of current business conditions; provided, however, that Borrowers can
give no assurance that such projections will be attained.

 Each giving of a Notice of LC Credit Event hereunder, each giving of a Notice of Borrowing hereunder and each acceptance
by any Borrower of the proceeds of any Loan made hereunder shall be deemed to be (y) a representation and warranty by each Borrower on the date of such notice or acceptance as to the facts specified in this Section, and (z) a restatement
by each Borrower that each and every one of the representations made by it in any of the Financing Documents is true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an

in its discretion), Administrative Agent shall have the right to perform, all at Borrowers’ expense, the searches described in clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) below against Borrowers and any other Credit Party, the results of which

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 Section 9.2 Representations and Warranties and Covenants Relating to Collateral. 

(a) Each Borrower has good title to, has rights in, and the power to transfer each item of Collateral upon which it purports to grant a
Lien hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens except Permitted Liens. Except as set forth on Schedule 9.2, each Borrower is the sole owner of the registered Intellectual Property it purports to own. To the knowledge of Borrowers after
due inquiry, each patent is valid and enforceable and no part of the Intellectual Property of Borrowers has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, and no claim has been made that any part of the registered Intellectual Property
of Borrowers violates the rights of any third party. Schedule 9.2 sets forth (i) each chief executive office and principal place of business of each Borrower and each of their respective Subsidiaries and (ii) all of the
addresses (including all warehouses) at which any of the Collateral is located and/or books and records of Borrowers regarding any of the Collateral are kept, which such Schedule 9.2 indicates in each case which Borrower(s) have Collateral
and/or books and records located at such address, and, in the case of any such address not owned by one or more of the Borrowers(s), indicates the nature of such location (e.g., leased business location operated by Borrower(s), third party
warehouse, consignment location, processor location, etc.) and the name and address of the third party owning and/or operating such location. 
 (b) Without limiting the generality of Section 3.2, except as indicated on Schedule 3.19 with respect to any rights of any Borrower as a licensee under any license of Intellectual Property owned by another
Person, and except for the filing of financing statements under the UCC, no authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or consent of any other Person is required for (i) the grant by
each Borrower to Administrative Agent of the security interests and Liens in the Collateral provided for under this Agreement and the other Security Documents (if any), or (ii) the exercise by Administrative Agent of its rights and remedies
with respect to the Collateral provided for under this Agreement and the other Security Documents or under any applicable Law, including the UCC and neither any such grant of Liens in favor of Administrative Agent or exercise of rights by
Administrative Agent shall violate or cause a default under any agreement between any Borrower and any other Person relating to any such collateral, including any license to which a Borrower is a party, whether as licensor or licensee, with respect
to any Intellectual Property, whether owned by such Borrower or any other Person. 
 (c) As of the Closing Date, no Borrower
has any ownership interest in any Chattel Paper, letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, Instruments, documents or investment property (other than equity interests in any Subsidiaries of such Borrower disclosed on Schedule 4.4) or
Intellectual Property (other than Intellectual Property disclosed on Schedule 3.19), and Borrowers shall give notice to Administrative Agent promptly (but in any event not later than the delivery by Borrowers of the next Compliance
Certificate required pursuant to Section 4.1 above) upon the acquisition by any Borrower of any such Chattel Paper, letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, Instruments, documents, investment property or Intellectual Property. No Person
other than Administrative Agent or (if applicable) any Lender has “control” (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) over any Deposit Account, investment property (including Securities Accounts and commodities account), letter of credit
rights or electronic chattel paper in which any Borrower has any interest (except for such control arising by operation of law in favor of any bank or securities intermediary or commodities intermediary with whom any Deposit Account, Securities
Account or commodities account of Borrowers is maintained). 
 (d) Borrowers shall not, and shall not permit any Credit Party
to, take any of the following actions or make any of the following changes unless Borrowers have given at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent of Borrowers’ intention to take any such action (which such
written notice shall include an updated version of any Schedule impacted by such change) and have executed any and all documents, instruments and agreements and taken any other actions which Administrative Agent may request after receiving such
written notice in order to protect and preserve the Liens, rights and remedies of Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral: (i) change the legal name or organizational identification number of any Borrower as it appears in official
filings in the jurisdiction of its organization, (ii) change the jurisdiction of incorporation or formation of any Borrower or Credit Party or allow any Borrower or Credit Party to designate any jurisdiction as an additional jurisdiction of
incorporation for such Borrower or Credit Party, or change the type of entity that it is, or (iii) change its chief executive office, principal place of business, or the location of its records concerning the Collateral or move

any Collateral to or place any Collateral on any location that is not then listed on the Schedules and/or establish any business location at any location
that is not then listed on the Schedules. 
 (e) Borrowers shall not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any
Account, or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor, or allow any credit or discount thereon (other than adjustments, settlements, compromises, credits and discounts in the Ordinary Course of Business, made while no Default exists and in amounts
which are not material with respect to the Account and which, after giving effect thereto, do not cause the Borrowing Base to be less than the Revolving Loan Outstandings) without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent. Without limiting
the generality of this Agreement or any other provisions of any of the Financing Documents relating to the rights of Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall have the
right at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to: (i) exercise the rights of Borrowers with respect to the obligation of any Account Debtor to make payment or otherwise render performance to Borrowers
and with respect to any property that secures the obligations of any Account Debtor or any other Person obligated on the Collateral, and (ii) adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of such Accounts. 
 (f) Without limiting the generality of Sections 9.2(c) and 9.2(e): 
 (i) Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent all tangible Chattel Paper and all Instruments and documents owned by any Borrower and
constituting part of the Collateral duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment, all in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Borrowers shall provide Administrative Agent with
“control” (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) of all electronic Chattel Paper owned by any Borrower and constituting part of the Collateral by having Administrative Agent identified as the assignee on the records pertaining to the
single authoritative copy thereof and otherwise complying with the applicable elements of control set forth in the UCC. Borrowers also shall deliver to Administrative Agent all security agreements securing any such Chattel Paper and securing any
such Instruments. Borrowers will mark conspicuously all such Chattel Paper and all such Instruments and documents with a legend, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, indicating that such Chattel Paper and such instruments and
documents are subject to the security interests and Liens in favor of Administrative Agent created pursuant to this Agreement and the Security Documents. Borrowers shall comply with all the provisions of Section 5.14 with respect to the Deposit
Accounts and Securities Accounts of Borrowers. 
 (ii) Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent all letters of credit
on which any Borrower is the beneficiary and which give rise to letter of credit rights owned by such Borrower which constitute part of the Collateral in each case duly endorsed and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment,
all in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Borrowers shall take any and all actions as may be necessary or desirable, or that Administrative Agent may request, from time to time, to cause Administrative Agent to obtain exclusive
“control” (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) of any such letter of credit rights in a manner acceptable to Administrative Agent. 
 (iii) Borrowers shall promptly advise Administrative Agent upon any Borrower becoming aware that it has any interests in any commercial tort claim that constitutes part of the Collateral, which such notice shall
include descriptions of the events and circumstances giving rise to such commercial tort claim and the dates such events and circumstances occurred, the potential defendants with respect such commercial tort claim and any court proceedings that have
been instituted with respect to such commercial tort claims, and Borrowers shall, with respect to any such commercial tort claim, execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such documents as Administrative Agent shall request to perfect, preserve
or protect the Liens, rights and remedies of Administrative Agent with respect to any such commercial tort claim. 
 (iv)
Except for Accounts and Inventory in an aggregate amount of $25,000, no Accounts or Inventory or other Collateral shall at any time be in the possession or control of any warehouse, consignee, bailee or any of Borrowers’ agents or processors
without prior written notice to Administrative Agent and the receipt by Administrative Agent, if Administrative Agent has so requested, of warehouse receipts, consignment agreements or bailee lien waivers (as applicable) satisfactory to
Administrative Agent prior to the commencement of such possession or control. Borrower has notified Administrative Agent that Inventory is currently located at the locations set forth on Schedule 9.2. Borrowers shall, upon the request of
Administrative Agent, notify any such

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 
warehouse, consignee, bailee, agent or processor of the security interests and Liens in favor of Administrative Agent created pursuant to this Agreement and
the Security Documents, instruct such Person to hold all such Collateral for Administrative Agent’s account subject to Administrative Agent’s instructions and shall obtain an acknowledgement from such Person that such Person holds the
Collateral for Administrative Agent’s benefit. 
 (v) Borrowers shall cause all equipment and other tangible Personal
Property other than Inventory to be maintained and preserved in the same condition, repair and in working order as when new, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and shall promptly make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and other
improvements in connection therewith that are necessary or desirable to such end. Upon request of Administrative Agent, Borrowers shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent any and all certificates of title, applications for title or similar
evidence of ownership of all such tangible Personal Property and shall cause Administrative Agent to be named as lienholder on any such certificate of title or other evidence of ownership. Borrowers shall not permit any such tangible Personal
Property to become fixtures to real estate unless such real estate is subject to a Lien in favor of Administrative Agent. 
 (vi) Each Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file without the signature of such Borrower one or more UCC financing statements relating to liens on personal property relating to all or any part of the Collateral, which
financing statements may list Administrative Agent as the “secured party” and such Borrower as the “debtor” and which describe and indicate the collateral covered thereby as all or any part of the Collateral under the Financing
Documents (including an indication of the collateral covered by any such financing statement as “all assets” of such Borrower now owned or hereafter acquired), in such jurisdictions as Administrative Agent from time to time determines are
appropriate, and to file without the signature of such Borrower any continuations of or corrective amendments to any such financing statements, in any such case in order for Administrative Agent to perfect, preserve or protect the Liens, rights and
remedies of Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral. 
 (vii) As of the Closing Date, no Borrower holds, and after
the Closing Date Borrowers shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing upon creation or acquisition by any Borrower of, any Collateral which constitutes a claim against any Governmental Authority, including, without limitation, the federal
government of the United States or any instrumentality or agency thereof, the assignment of which claim is restricted by any applicable Law, including, without limitation, the federal Assignment of Claims Act and any other comparable Law. Upon the
request of Administrative Agent, Borrowers shall take such steps as may be necessary or desirable, or that Administrative Agent may request, to comply with any such applicable Law. 
 (viii) Borrowers shall furnish to Administrative Agent from time to time any statements and schedules further identifying or describing
the Collateral and any other information, reports or evidence concerning the Collateral as Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time. 
 Section 9.3 UCC Remedies. 
 (a) Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance
of an Event of Default under this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, Administrative Agent, in addition to all other rights, options, and remedies granted to Administrative Agent under this Agreement or at law or in equity, may exercise,
either directly or through one or more assignees or designees, all rights and remedies granted to it under all Financing Documents and under the UCC in effect in the applicable jurisdiction(s) and under any other applicable law; including, without
limitation: 
 (i) The right to take possession of, send notices regarding, and collect directly the Collateral, with or
without judicial process; 
 (ii) The right to (by its own means or with judicial assistance) enter any of
Borrowers’ premises and take possession of the Collateral, or render it unusable, or to render it usable or saleable, or dispose of the Collateral on such premises in compliance with subsection (iii) below and to take possession of
Borrowers’ original books and records, to obtain access to Borrowers’ data processing equipment, computer hardware and software relating to the Collateral and to use all of the foregoing and the information contained therein in any manner
Administrative Agent deems appropriate, without any liability for rent, storage, utilities, or other sums, and Borrowers shall not resist or interfere with such action (if Borrowers’ books and records are prepared or maintained

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 
by an accounting service, contractor or other third party agent, Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize such service, contractor or other agent, upon notice
by Administrative Agent to such Person that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to deliver to Administrative Agent or its designees such books and records, and to follow Administrative Agent’s instructions with respect to
further services to be rendered); 
 (iii) The right to require Borrowers at Borrowers’ expense to assemble all or any
part of the Collateral and make it available to Administrative Agent at any place designated by Lender; 
 (iv) The right to
notify postal authorities to change the address for delivery of Borrowers’ mail to an address designated by Administrative Agent and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to any Borrower. 
 (v) The right to enforce Borrowers’ rights against Account Debtors and other obligors, including, without limitation, (i) the
right to collect Accounts directly in Administrative Agent’s own name (as agent for Lenders) and to charge the collection costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to Borrowers, and (ii) the right, in the name of Administrative
Agent or any designee of Administrative Agent or Borrowers, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts by mail, telephone, telegraph or otherwise, including, without limitation, verification of Borrowers’
compliance with applicable Laws. Borrowers shall cooperate fully with Administrative Agent in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude such verification process. Such verification may include contacts between Administrative Agent and applicable
federal, state and local regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Borrowers’ affairs, all of which contacts Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize. 
 (b) Each Borrower agrees that a notice received by it at least ten (10) days before the time of any intended public sale, or the time
after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition. If permitted by applicable law, any perishable Collateral which threatens to speedily
decline in value or which is sold on a recognized market may be sold immediately by Administrative Agent without prior notice to Borrowers. At any sale or disposition of Collateral, Administrative Agent may (to the extent permitted by applicable
law) purchase all or any part of the Collateral, free from any right of redemption by Borrowers, which right is hereby waived and released. Each Borrower covenants and agrees not to interfere with or impose any obstacle to Administrative
Agent’s exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral. Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. Administrative Agent may comply with any applicable state or
federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral without
giving any warranties as to the Collateral. Administrative Agent may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. If
Administrative Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Borrowers will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Administrative Agent and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser. In the event the purchaser
fails to pay for the Collateral, Administrative Agent may resell the Collateral and Borrowers shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale. Borrowers shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the
Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations. 
 (c) Without restricting the generality of the foregoing and for the
purposes aforesaid, each Borrower hereby appoints and constitutes Administrative Agent its lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution in the Collateral, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to use
unadvanced funds remaining under this Agreement or which may be reserved, escrowed or set aside for any purposes hereunder at any time, or to advance funds in excess of the face amount of the Notes, to pay, settle or compromise all existing bills
and claims, which may be Liens or security interests, or to avoid such bills and claims becoming Liens against the Collateral; to execute all applications and certificates in the name of such Borrower and to prosecute and defend all actions or
proceedings in connection with the Collateral; and to do any and every act which such Borrower might do in its own behalf; it being understood and agreed that this power of attorney shall be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked.

 (d) Solely in connection with the exercise of its rights and remedies hereunder, Administrative Agent and each Lender is
hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge,

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 
Borrowers’ labels, mask works, rights of use of any name, any other Intellectual Property and advertising matter, and any similar property as it
pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Administrative Agent’s exercise of its rights under this Article, Borrowers’ rights under all licenses
(whether as licensor or licensee) and all franchise agreements inure to Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s benefit. Each Borrower irrevocably agrees that Administrative Agent may sell any of such Borrower’s Inventory directly to
any person, including without limitation persons who have previously purchased the Borrower’s Inventory from the Borrowers; and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of Administrative Agent’s rights under this Agreement or
any other Financing Document, may sell Inventory which bears any Trademark owned by or licensed to Borrowers and any Inventory that is covered by any copyright owned by or licensed to the Borrowers and Administrative Agent may finish any work in
process and affix any trademark owned by or licensed to the Borrowers and sell such Inventory as provided herein. The rights in this Section are in addition to the rights of Administrative Agent or Lender would have under applicable law if it were a
person who acquired Inventory or Goods of Borrowers in an unconditional sale from Borrowers (for example under the doctrines of exhaustion, first sale, fair use, nominal use and the like).

 45 
  

 Portions of this Exhibit were omitted and have been filed separately with the Secretary of the

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 
(and, if in part, such reduction shall be pro rata among the Lenders having a Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage), and/or (b) by notice to Borrower
Representative declare the Obligations to be, and the Obligations shall thereupon become, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Borrower and Borrowers
will pay the same; provided, however, that in the case of any of the Events of Default specified in Section 10.1(e) or 10.1(f) above, without any notice to any Borrower or any other act by Administrative Agent or the Lenders, the
Revolving Loan Commitment and the obligations of Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect thereto shall thereupon immediately and automatically terminate and all of the Obligations shall become immediately and automatically due and payable
without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Borrower and Borrowers will pay the same.

in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (a) each Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times thereafter received by
Administrative Agent from or on behalf of such Borrower or any other Guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and, as between Borrowers on the one hand and Administrative Agent and Lenders on the other, Administrative Agent shall have the
continuing and exclusive right to apply and to reapply any and all payments received against the Obligations in such manner as Administrative Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous application by Administrative Agent, and (b) the
proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied: first, to all fees, costs, indemnities, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred by or owing to Administrative Agent with respect to
this Agreement, the other Financing Documents or the Collateral; second, to all fees, costs, indemnities, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred by or owing to any Lender with respect to this Agreement, the other Financing Documents
or the Collateral; third, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (including any interest which, but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts); fourth, to the principal amount of the
Obligations outstanding and to provide cash collateral to secure any and all Letter of Credit Liability and future payment of related fees, as provided for in Section 2.5(e); and fifth to any other indebtedness or obligations of
Borrowers owing to Administrative Agent or any Lender under the Financing Documents and sixth, to the Obligations owing to any Eligible Swap Counterparty in respect of any Swap Contracts. Any balance remaining shall be delivered to Borrowers
or to whoever may be

lawfully entitled to receive such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. In carrying out the foregoing, (x) amounts received shall
be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category, and (y) each of the Persons entitled to receive a payment in any particular category shall receive an amount equal to its pro
rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant thereto for such category. 
 Section 10.7 Waivers. 
 (a) Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives:
(i) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonor, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all Financing Documents, the
Notes or any other notes, commercial paper, accounts, contracts, documents, Instruments, Chattel Paper and Guarantees at any time held by Lenders on which any Borrower may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Lenders may
do in this regard; (ii) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s taking possession or control of, or to Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, any
Collateral or any bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any of its remedies; and (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption Laws. Each Borrower
acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement, the other Financing Documents and the transactions evidenced hereby and thereby. 
 (b) Each Borrower for itself and all its successors and assigns, (i) agrees that its liability shall not be in any manner affected by
any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver, or modification granted or consented to by Lender; (ii) consents to any indulgences and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may be granted by Administrative Agent
or any Lender with respect to the payment or other provisions of the Financing Documents, and to any substitution, exchange or release of the Collateral, or any part thereof, with or without substitution, and agrees to the addition or release of any
Borrower, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties, or whether primarily or secondarily liable, without notice to any other Borrower and without affecting its liability hereunder; (iii) agrees that its liability shall be unconditional and without
regard to the liability of any other Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Lender for any tax on the indebtedness; and (iv) to the fullest extent permitted by law, expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity now
provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing. 
 (c) To the extent that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have acquiesced in any noncompliance with any requirements or conditions precedent to the closing of the Loans or to any subsequent disbursement of Loan proceeds, such
acquiescence shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by Administrative Agent or any Lender of such requirements with respect to any future disbursements of Loan proceeds and Administrative Agent may at any time after such acquiescence require
Borrowers to comply with all such requirements. Any forbearance by Administrative Agent or Lender in exercising any right or remedy under any of the Financing Documents, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, including any failure to accelerate
the maturity date of the Loans, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy nor shall it serve as a novation of the Notes or as a reinstatement of the Loans or a waiver of such right of acceleration or the right to
insist upon strict compliance of the terms of the Financing Documents. Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s acceptance of payment of any sum secured by any of the Financing Documents after the due date of such payment shall not be a
waiver of Administrative Agent’s and such Lender’s right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment. The procurement of insurance or the payment of
taxes or other Liens or charges by Administrative Agent as the result of an Event of Default shall not be a waiver of Administrative Agent’s right to accelerate the maturity of the Loans, nor shall Administrative Agent’s receipt of any
condemnation awards, insurance proceeds, or damages under this Agreement operate to cure or waive any Credit Party’s default in payment of sums secured by any of the Financing Documents. 
 (d) Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, each Borrower agrees that if
an Event of Default is continuing (i) Administrative Agent and Lenders shall not be subject to any “one action” or “election of remedies” law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided
to Administrative Agent or Lenders shall remain in full force and effect until Administrative Agent or Lenders have exhausted all remedies against the Collateral and any other properties owned

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 
by Borrowers and the Financing Documents and other security instruments or agreements securing the Loans have been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized
upon in satisfaction of Borrowers’ obligations under the Financing Documents. 
 (e) Nothing contained herein or in any
other Financing Document shall be construed as requiring Administrative Agent or any Lender to resort to any part of the Collateral for the satisfaction of any of Borrowers’ obligations under the Financing Documents in preference or priority to
any other Collateral, and Administrative Agent may seek satisfaction out of all of the Collateral or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of Borrowers’ obligations under the Financing Documents. In addition, Administrative
Agent shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose upon any Collateral in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Financing Documents then due and payable as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion,
including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) in the event any Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and/or interest, Administrative Agent may
foreclose upon all or any part of the Collateral to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Administrative Agent elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loans, Administrative Agent may
foreclose all or any part of the Collateral to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loans as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by one or more of the Financing Documents as Administrative Agent may elect. Notwithstanding
one or more partial foreclosures, any unforeclosed Collateral shall remain subject to the Financing Documents to secure payment of sums secured by the Financing Documents and not previously recovered. 
 (f) To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure
of any or all of the Collateral any equitable right otherwise available to any Credit Party which would require the separate sale of any of the Collateral or require Administrative Agent or Lenders to exhaust their remedies against any part of the
Collateral before proceeding against any other part of the Collateral; and further in the event of such foreclosure each Borrower does hereby expressly consent to and authorize, at the option of Administrative Agent, the foreclosure and sale either
separately or together of each part of the Collateral. 
 Section 10.8 Injunctive Relief. The parties acknowledge and agree that,
in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any Credit Party’s obligations under any Financing Documents, Administrative Agent and Lenders may have no adequate remedy in money damages and, accordingly, shall be entitled to an injunction
(including, without limitation, a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, writ of attachment, or order compelling an audit) against such breach or threatened breach, including, without limitation, maintaining any cash management and
collection procedure described herein. However, no specification in this Agreement of a specific legal or equitable remedy shall be construed as a waiver or prohibition against any other legal or equitable remedies in the event of a breach or
threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement. Each Credit Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the requirement of the posting of any bond in connection with such injunctive relief. By joining in the Financing Documents as a
Credit Party, each Credit Party specifically joins in this Section as if this Section were a part of each Financing Document executed by such Credit Party. 
 Section 10.9 Marshalling. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party, or against or in payment of any of the other Obligations or any other
obligation owed to Administrative Agent or Lenders by any Credit Party. 
 ARTICLE 11 - AGENT 
 Section 11.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to enter into each of
the Financing Documents to which it is a party (other than this Agreement) on its behalf and to take such actions as Administrative Agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Financing Documents as are delegated to Administrative
Agent by the terms thereof, and/or by the terms of any interlender or agency agreement entered into among Administrative Agent and Lenders, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Subject to the terms of the other
Financing Documents and/or any such interlender or agency agreement, Administrative Agent is authorized and empowered to amend, modify, or waive any provisions of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents on behalf of Lenders. The provisions
of this Article 11 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and neither any Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its 

  

 48 
  

 Portions of this Exhibit were omitted and have been filed separately with the Secretary of the

 Commission pursuant to the Company’s application requesting confidential treatment under Rule 
 24b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

 
functions and duties under this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have
assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Borrower or any other Credit Party. Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Financing Documents and/or any such interlender or agency
agreement, by or through its agents or employees. 
 Section 11.2 Right to Perform, Preserve and Protect. If any Credit Party
fails to perform any obligation hereunder or under any other Financing Document, Administrative Agent itself may, but shall not be obligated to, cause such obligation to be performed at Borrowers’ expense. Administrative Agent is further
authorized by Borrowers and the Lenders to make expenditures from time to time which Administrative Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable to (a) preserve or protect the business conducted by Borrowers and the
other Credit Parties, the Collateral, or any portion thereof and/or (b) enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations. Each Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent on demand
for any and all costs, liabilities and obligations incurred by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.2, together with interest thereon at the applicable default rate hereunder. 
 ARTICLE 12 - MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 12.1 Survival. All agreements,
representations and warranties made herein and in every other Financing Document shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents. The provisions of Section 2.8 and Articles 11 and 12 shall survive
the payment of the Obligations (both with respect to any Lender and all Lenders collectively) and any termination of this Agreement and any judgment with respect to any Obligations, including any final foreclosure judgment with respect to any
Security Document, and no unpaid or unperformed, current or future, Obligations will merge into any such judgment. 
 Section 12.2 No
Waivers. No failure or delay by Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege under any Financing Document shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein and therein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. Any reference in any Financing
Document to the “continuing” nature of any Event of Default shall not be construed as establishing or otherwise indicating that any Borrower or any other Credit Party has the independent right to cure any such Event of Default, but is
rather presented merely for convenience should such Event of Default be waived in accordance with the terms of the applicable Financing Documents. 
 Section 12.3 Notices. 
 (a) All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall
be in writing (including prepaid overnight courier, facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to such party at its address, facsimile number or e-mail address set forth on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of any such
Lender who becomes a Lender after the date hereof, in an assignment agreement or in a notice delivered to Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent by the assignee Lender forthwith upon such assignment) or at such other address, facsimile
number or e-mail address as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to Administrative Agent and Borrower Representative; provided, however, that notices, requests or other communications shall be permitted by
electronic means only in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.3(b) and (c). Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by facsimile, when such notice is transmitted to the facsimile number
specified by this Section and the sender receives a confirmation of transmission from the sending facsimile machine, or (ii) if given by mail, prepaid overnight courier or any other means, when received or when receipt is refused at the
applicable address specified by this Section 12.3(a). 
 (b) Notices and other communications to the parties hereto may
be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved from time to time by Administrative Agent, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply
to notices sent directly to any Lender if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or Borrower Representative may, in their discretion, agree to
accept notices and other communications to them hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided, however, that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

 (c) Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other
communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other
written acknowledgment), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i)
of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor, provided, however, that if any such notice or other communication is not sent or posted during normal business hours, such
notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day. 
 Section 12.4
Severability. In case any provision of or obligation under this Agreement or any other Financing Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or
obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 Section 12.5 Amendments and Waivers. 
 (a) No provision of this Agreement or any other Financing
Document may be amended, waived or otherwise modified unless such amendment, waiver or other modification is in writing and is signed or otherwise approved by Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders; provided that 
 (i) no such amendment, waiver or other modification that would have the effect of increasing or reducing a Lender’s Revolving Loan
Commitment, Revolving Loan Commitment Amount or Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage shall be effective as to such Lender without such Lender’s written consent or signature; 
 (ii) no such amendment, waiver or modification that would affect the rights and duties of Administrative Agent shall be effective without
Administrative Agent’s written consent or signature; 
 (iii) no such amendment, waiver or other modification shall,
unless signed by all the Lenders directly affected thereby, (A) reduce the principal of, rate of interest on or any fees with respect to any Loan or forgive any principal, interest (other than default interest) or fees (other than late charges)
with respect to any Loan (B) postpone the date fixed for, or waive, any payment of principal of any Loan or of interest on any Loan (other than default interest) or any fees provided for hereunder (other than late charges or for any termination
of any commitment; (C) change the definition of the term Required Lenders or the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for Lenders to take any action hereunder; (D) release all or substantially all or any material portion of the
Collateral, authorize any Borrower to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all or any material portion of the Collateral or release any Guarantor of all or any portion of the Obligations or its Guarantee obligations with respect
thereto, except, in each case with respect to this clause (D), as otherwise may be provided in this Agreement or the other Financing Documents (including in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder); (E) amend, waive or otherwise
modify this Section 12.5 or the definitions of the terms used in this Section 12.5 insofar as the definitions affect the substance of this Section 12.5; (F) consent to the assignment, delegation or other transfer by any Credit
Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Financing Document or release any Borrower of its payment obligations under any Financing Document, except, in each case with respect to this clause (F), pursuant to a merger or consolidation
permitted pursuant to this Agreement or (G) amend any of the provisions of Section 10.6 or amend any of the definitions Pro Rata Share, Revolving Loan Commitment, Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage or
that provide for the Lenders to receive their Pro Rata Shares of any fees, payments, setoffs or proceeds of Collateral hereunder. It is hereby understood and agreed that all Lenders shall be deemed directly affected by an amendment, waiver or other
modification of the type described in the preceding clauses (C), (D), (E), (F) and (G) of the preceding sentence. 
 (b) Without limitation of the provisions of the preceding clause (a), no waiver, amendment or other modification to this Agreement shall, unless signed by each Eligible Swap Counterparty then in existence, modify the provisions of
Section 10.6 in any manner adverse to the interests of each such Eligible Swap Counterparty. 
 (c) Administrative Agent
shall be entitled, in its sole and absolute discretion, to waive any financial covenant of any Credit Party and to provide its written consent to a proposed Swap Contract.

 Section 12.6 Assignments; Participations. 
 (a) Assignments by Lenders. 
 (i) Each Lender may at any time assign or grant participations in all or any portion of such Lender’s Loans and interest in the Revolving Loan Commitment, together with all related obligations of such Lender
hereunder, but only with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, provided, that such consent shall not be required in connection with any assignment or granting of a participation by any Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender. If
Administrative Agent grants its consent to any such assignment by a Lender, such Lender shall thereupon be released of any further obligations under this Agreement. Each 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; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release
such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (ii) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrowers, shall maintain at its offices located in Chicago, Illinois a copy of each assignment agreement (assigning a Lender’s interests hereunder) delivered to
it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender, and the commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, such Lender pursuant to the terms hereof. The entries in such register shall be conclusive, and
Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Such register shall be
available for inspection by any Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to Administrative Agent. 
 (b) Credit Party Assignments. No Credit Party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or other obligations hereunder or under any other Financing Document without the prior written consent
of Administrative Agent and each Lender. 
 Section 12.7 Headings. Headings and captions used in the Financing Documents
(including the Exhibits, Schedules and Annexes hereto and thereto) are included for convenience of reference only and shall not be given any substantive effect. 
 Section 12.8 Confidentiality. Administrative Agent and each Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding the Credit Parties and their respective businesses pursuant to the requirements hereof in
accordance with such Person’s customary procedures for handling information of such nature, except that disclosure of such information may be made (a) to their respective agents, employees, Subsidiaries, Affiliates, attorneys, auditors,
professional consultants, rating agencies, insurance industry associations and portfolio management services, (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Loans, and to prospective contractual counterparties (or the
professional advisors thereto) in Swap Contracts permitted hereby, provided, however, that any such Persons shall have agreed to be bound by the provisions of this Section 12.8, (c) as required by Law, subpoena, judicial
order or similar order and in connection with any litigation, (d) as may be required in connection with the examination, audit or similar investigation of such Person, and (e) to a Person that is a trustee, investment advisor, collateral
manager, servicer, noteholder or secured party in a Securitization (as hereinafter defined) in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for such Securitization. For the purposes of this Section,
“Securitization” shall mean a public or private offering by a Lender or any of its Affiliates or their respective successors and assigns, of securities which represent an interest in, or which are collateralized, in whole or in part, by
the Loans. Confidential information shall include only such information identified as such at the time provided to Administrative Agent and shall not include information that either: (i) is in the public domain, or becomes part of the public
domain after disclosure to such Person through no fault of such Person, or (ii) is disclosed to such Person by a Person other than a Credit Party, provided, however, Administrative Agent does not have actual knowledge that such
Person is prohibited from disclosing such information. The obligations of Administrative Agent and Lenders under this Section 12.8 shall supersede and replace the obligations of Administrative Agent and Lenders under any confidentiality
agreement in respect of this financing executed and delivered by Administrative Agent or any Lender prior to the date hereof.

 Section 12.9 Waiver of Consequential and Other Damages. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (as defined below), on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of this Agreement, any other Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit
or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information
transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Financing Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 Section 12.10 GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THIS AGREEMENT, EACH NOTE AND EACH OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENT, AND ALL MATTERS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO OR ARISING THEREFROM (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW, TORT LAW OR

IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE FINANCING DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED
BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. EACH BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS RELIED ON THE WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS
AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER FINANCING DOCUMENTS, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY OF
REVIEWING THIS JURY WAIVER WITH LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS. 
 Section 12.12

 (a) Publication. No Credit Party will directly or indirectly publish,
disclose or otherwise use in any public disclosure, advertising material, promotional material, press release or interview, any reference to the name, logo or any trademark of Merrill Lynch or any of its Affiliates or any reference to this Agreement

foregoing, Merrill Lynch shall provide Borrowers with an opportunity to review and confer with Merrill Lynch regarding the contents of any such tombstone, advertisement or information, as applicable, prior to its submission for publication and,
following such review period, Merrill Lynch may, from time to time, publish such information in any media form desired by Merrill Lynch, until such time that Borrowers shall have requested Merrill Lynch cease any such further publication.

counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Signatures by facsimile shall bind the parties hereto. This Agreement and the other Financing Documents
constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. 
 Section 12.14 No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the
event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the

below, any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 5.2, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five (5) days of the
receipt of the Accounting Firm’s determination. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Article 5, the Accounting Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable,
good-faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm
hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made (“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that the Company
exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 5.3 and the Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be
promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive. 
 5.3 Contesting of Gross-Up Payment. The Executive shall notify
the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten
(10) business days after the Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the
expiration of the thirty (30)-day period following the date on which it gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the Executive
in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive shall: 
 (a)
give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim, 
 (b) take such
action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the
Company, 
 (c) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim, and 
 (d) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim; 
 provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection
with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs
and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3, the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals,
proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and 

  

 4 

 
may, at its sole option, either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and the
Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, however, that if the
Company directs the Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to the Executive, on an interest-free basis and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from
any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and provided further, however, that any extension of
the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount. Furthermore, the Company’s control of the
contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and the Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other
taxing authority. 
 5.4 Refunds. If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to
Section 5.3, the Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject to the Company’s complying with the requirements of Section 5.3) promptly pay to the Company the amount of such
refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 5.3, a determination is made that the Executive shall
not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days after such determination, then such
advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid. 
 5.5 Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 5, the Company may withhold and pay over to the Internal Revenue
Service for the benefit of the Executive all or any portion of the Gross-Up Payment that it determines in good faith that it is or may be in the future required to withhold, and the Executive hereby consents to such withholding.

 ARTICLE 7 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 7.1 Employment Status. This Agreement does
not constitute a contract of employment or impose upon Executive any obligation to remain as an employee, or impose on the Company any obligation (i) to retain Executive as an employee, (ii) to change the status of Executive as an at-will
employee, or (iii) to change the Company’s policies regarding termination of employment. 
 7.2 Notices. Any notices
provided hereunder must be in writing, and such notices or any other written communication shall be deemed effective upon the earlier of personal delivery (including personal delivery by facsimile) or the third day after mailing by first class mail,
to the Company at its primary office location and to Executive at Executive’s address as listed in the Company’s payroll records. Any payments made by the Company to Executive under the terms of this Agreement shall be delivered to
Executive either in person or at the address as listed in the Company’s payroll records. 
 7.3 Severability. Whenever possible,
each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or
rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provisions had never been contained herein. 
 7.4 Waiver. If either party should waive any breach of any provisions of
this Agreement, he or it shall not thereby be deemed to have waived any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision of this Agreement. 
 7.5 Arbitration. Unless otherwise prohibited by law or specified below, all disputes, claims and causes of action, in law or equity, arising from or relating to this Agreement or its enforcement, performance,
breach, or interpretation shall be resolved solely and exclusively by final and binding arbitration held in San Francisco County, California through Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services/Endispute (“JAMS”) under the
then existing JAMS arbitration rules. However, nothing in this Section is intended to prevent either party from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any such arbitration. The Company will pay the
direct costs and expenses of any such arbitration, including the fees and costs of the arbitrator. Each party in any such arbitration shall be responsible for its own attorneys’ fees and related costs and necessary disbursements; provided,
however, that in the event one party refuses to arbitrate and the other party seeks to compel arbitration by court order, if such other party prevails, except as may be prohibited by law, it shall be entitled to recover reasonable
attorneys’ fees and related costs and necessary disbursements. Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1717, each party warrants that it was represented by counsel in the negotiation and execution of this Agreement, including the
attorneys’ fees provision herein. 
  

 8 

 7.6 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, including Exhibit A and Exhibit B, constitutes
the entire agreement between Executive and the Company and is the complete, final, and exclusive embodiment of their agreement with regard to this subject matter, wholly superseding all written and oral agreements with respect to cash severance
benefits and health benefits to Executive in the event of employment termination (including the Prior Agreement) other than any outstanding loans by the Company to Executive. It is entered into without reliance on any promise or representation other
than those expressly contained herein. 
 7.7 Amendment Or Termination Of Agreement. This Agreement may be changed or terminated only
upon the mutual written consent of the Company and Executive. The written consent of the Company to a change or termination of this Agreement must be signed by an executive officer of the Company after such change or termination has been approved by
the Board. 
 7.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, any one of which need not contain signatures
of more than one party, but all of which taken together will constitute one and the same Agreement. 
 7.9 Headings. The headings of
the Articles and Sections hereof are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part hereof nor to affect the meaning thereof. 
 7.10 Successors And Assigns. This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive, and the Company, and any surviving entity resulting from a Change in Control and upon
any other person who is a successor by merger, acquisition, consolidation or otherwise to the business formerly carried on by the Company, and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators, without regard to whether or
not such person actively assumes any rights or duties hereunder; provided, however, that Executive may not assign any duties hereunder and may not assign any rights hereunder without the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not
be withheld unreasonably. 
 7.11 Choice Of Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this
Agreement will be governed by the law of the State of California, without regard to such state’s conflict of laws rules. 
 7.12
Non-Publication. The parties mutually agree not to disclose publicly the terms of this Agreement except to the extent that disclosure is mandated by applicable law or regulation or to respective advisors (e.g., attorneys, accountants).

 EXHIBIT A 
 RELEASE

 Certain capitalized terms used in this Release are defined in the Amended and Restated Executive Severance Benefits Agreement (the
“Agreement”) which I have executed and of which this Release is a part. 
 I hereby confirm my obligations under the
Company’s proprietary information and inventions agreement. 
 I acknowledge that I have read and understand Section 1542 of the
California Civil Code which reads as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially
affected his settlement with the debtor.” I hereby expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law of any jurisdiction of similar effect with respect to my release of any claims I may have against the
Company. 
 Except as otherwise set forth in this Release, I hereby release, acquit and forever discharge the Company, its parents and
subsidiaries, and their officers, directors, agents, servants, employees, shareholders, successors, assigns and affiliates, of and from any and all claims, liabilities, demands, causes of action, costs, expenses, attorneys fees, damages, indemnities
and obligations of every kind and nature, in law, equity, or otherwise, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed (other than any claim for indemnification I may have as a result of any third party action against me
based on my employment with the Company), arising out of or in any way related to agreements, events, acts or conduct at any time prior to the date I execute this Release, including, but not limited to: all such claims and demands directly or
indirectly arising out of or in any way connected with my employment with the Company or the termination of that employment, including but not limited to, claims of intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress, any and all tort claims
for personal injury, claims or demands related to salary, bonuses, commissions, stock, stock options, or any other ownership interests in the Company, vacation pay, fringe benefits, expense reimbursements, severance pay, or any other form of
disputed compensation; claims pursuant to any federal, state or local law or cause of action including, but not limited to, the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended

law; common law; wrongful discharge; discrimination; fraud; defamation; emotional distress; and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall be construed in any way to
release the Company from its obligation to indemnify me pursuant to the Company’s indemnification obligation pursuant to agreement or applicable law. 
  

 1 

 I acknowledge that I am knowingly and voluntarily waiving and releasing any rights I may have under ADEA.
I also acknowledge that the consideration given under the Agreement for the waiver and release in the preceding paragraph hereof is in addition to anything of value to which I was already entitled. I further acknowledge that I have been advised by
this writing, as required by the ADEA, that: (A) my waiver and release do not apply to any rights or claims that may arise on or after the date I execute this Release; (B) I have the right to consult with an attorney prior to executing
this Release; (C) I have twenty-one (21) days to consider this Release (although I may choose to voluntarily execute this Release earlier); (D) I have seven (7) days following the execution of this Release by the parties to
