In the event that any Accounting Change (as defined below) occurs  and such change results in a change in the method of calculation of financial covenants, standards  or terms in this Agreement, then upon the written request of the Borrower or the Administrative  Agent (acting upon the request of the Required Lenders), the Borrower, the Administrative Agent  and the Lenders will enter into good faith negotiations in order to amend such provisions of this  Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Change with the desired result that the  criteria for evaluating the Borrower’s financial condition will be the same after such Accounting  Change as if such Accounting Change had not occurred; provided that, until so amended,  calculation of financial covenants, standards or terms in this Agreement will be computed in  accordance with GAAP in effect prior to such Accounting Change until the effective date of such  amendment.  “Accounting Change” means (1) any change in accounting principles required by  the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting  Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or (2) any change in  the application of GAAP by the Borrower (including through the adoption of IFRS).  All  determinations of fair market value under a Loan Document will be made by a Responsible Officer  of the Borrower in good faith and if such determination is supported by an opinion of an  Independent Financial Advisor, such determination will be conclusive for all purposes under the  Loan Documents or related to the Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained  in this Section 1.03 or in the definition of “Capital Leases” or “Capital Lease Obligations,” any  change in accounting for leases pursuant to GAAP resulting from the adoption of Financial  Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), to  the extent such adoption would require treating any lease (or similar arrangement conveying the  right to use) as a capital lease or finance lease where such lease (or similar arrangement) would  not have been required to be so treated under GAAP as in effect prior to such adoption, such lease  shall not be considered a Capital Lease or Capital Lease Obligation, and all calculations and  deliverables under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made or delivered, as  applicable, in accordance therewith.  Section 1.04 Effectuation of Transfers.  Each of the representations and warranties of  the Borrower contained in this Agreement (and all corresponding definitions) is made after giving  effect to the Transactions, unless the context otherwise requires.  

 

  85  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Section 1.05 Currencies.  Unless otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement,  monetary amounts are in Dollars.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Default or  Event of Default will arise as a result of any limitation or threshold set forth in Dollars being  exceeded solely as a result of changes in currency exchange rates.  Section 1.06 Divisions.  For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with  any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different  jurisdiction’s laws), if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset,  right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred  from the original Person to the subsequent Person.  Section 1.07 Certifications.  Any certificate or other writing required hereunder or under  any other Loan Document to be certified by any officer or other authorized representative  (including any Responsible Officer) of any Person will be deemed to be executed and delivered  by such officer, other authorized representative or Responsible Officer solely in such individual’s  capacity as an officer, other authorized representative or Responsible Officer of such Person and  not in such officer’s or other authorized representative’s individual capacity and without any  personal liability.  Section 1.08 Pro Forma Calculations.  (1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, financial ratios shall be calculated  in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.08; provided that, notwithstanding  anything to the contrary in clauses (2), (3) or (4) of this Section 1.08, when  calculating any financial ratio for purposes of (a) determining Applicable Margins  and pricing grid step-downs, (b) calculations of mandatory prepayments, (c)  determining compliance with any financial covenant (including any financial  covenant under this Agreement) and (d) any provisions related to the foregoing, the  events described in this Section 1.08 that occurred subsequent to the end of the  applicable Test Period shall not be given pro forma effect.  (2) For purposes of calculating the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Net  Leverage Ratio, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or any other financial ratio,  Specified Transactions (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in  connection therewith) that have been made (a) during the applicable Test Period or  (b) subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for  which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma  basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease  in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein  attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the  applicable Test Period.  If since the beginning of any applicable Test Period any  Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged,  amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Borrower or any of its Restricted  Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified  Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.08 then  the financial ratios shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance  with this Section 1.08.  

 

  86  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (3) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma  calculations shall be made in good faith by a Responsible Officer and may include,  for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of cost savings, operating expense  reductions and, synergies projected by the Borrower in good faith to be realized as  a result of specified actions taken, committed to be taken or expected to be taken  (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense  reductions and synergies had been realized on the first day of such Test Period and  as if such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies were realized  during the entirety of such period but, for the avoidance of doubt, subject to the  limitations set forth in clause (g) of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” set  forth herein) relating to such Specified Transaction, net of the amount of actual  benefits realized during such period from such actions (such cost savings and  synergies, “Specified Transaction Adjustments”); provided, that  (a) such Specified Transaction Adjustments are reasonably identifiable and  quantifiable in the good faith judgment of a Responsible Officer of the  Borrower,  (b) such actions are taken, committed to be taken or reasonably anticipated to  be taken no later than twenty four (24) months after the date of such  Specified Transaction, and  (c) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this clause (3) to the extent  duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in calculating  Consolidated EBITDA, whether through a pro forma adjustment or  otherwise, with respect to such period.  (4) In the event that the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by  assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment,  retirement or extinguishment) any Indebtedness included in the calculations of a  financial covenant (in each case, other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under  any revolving credit facility (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Revolving  Facility) in the ordinary course of business for working capital purposes), (a) during  the applicable Test Period or (b) subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period  and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such  ratio is made, then each financial ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect  to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the  same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period.  Section 1.09 LCA Election. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other  Loan Document to the contrary, when (1) calculating any applicable ratio in connection with  incurrence of Indebtedness (other than the making of any Revolving Loans or the issuance of any  Letters of Credit), the creation of Liens, the making of any disposition, the making of an  Investment, the designation of a Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted  Subsidiary or the repayment of Indebtedness or (2) determining compliance with any provision of  this Agreement which requires that no Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or  would result therefrom, in each case of the preceding clauses (1) and (2) in connection with a  

 

  87  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Limited Condition Transaction, the date of determination of such ratio and determination of  whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom  shall, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection  with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCA Election”), be deemed to be the date the  definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the “LCA Test  Date”). If on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and the  other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of  Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof), with such ratios and other provisions being  calculated as if such Limited Condition Transaction or other transactions had occurred at the  beginning of the most recent Test Period ending prior to the LCA Test Date for which financial  statements are available, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date  in compliance with the applicable ratios or other provisions, such ratios or provisions shall be  deemed to have been complied with, unless a Specified Event of Default shall be continuing on  the date such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated.  For the avoidance of doubt, (a) if  any of such ratios or other provisions are exceeded or breached as a result of fluctuations in such  ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA) or other provisions at or prior to the  consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Transaction, such ratios and other provisions will  not be deemed to have been exceeded or breached solely for purposes of determining whether the  Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder and (b) such ratios and compliance with  such conditions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition  Transaction or related Specified Transactions, unless on such date a Specified Event of Default  shall be continuing.  If the Borrower has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition  Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability  (other than for the purposes of determining actual compliance (and not Pro Forma compliance or  compliance on a Pro Forma Basis) with the Financial Performance Covenant upon the occurrence  and during the continuance of a Covenant Trigger Event), with respect to any other Specified  Transaction on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on  which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive  agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation  of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma  Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith  (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been  consummated.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the  contrary, if the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (i) incurs Indebtedness, creates Liens, makes  dispositions, makes investments, makes Restricted Payments, designates any Subsidiary as a  Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary or repays any Indebtedness in connection with  any Limited Condition Transaction under a ratio-based basket and (ii) incurs Indebtedness, creates  Liens, makes dispositions, makes Investments, makes Restricted Payments, designates any  Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary or an Unrestricted Subsidiary or repays any Indebtedness in  connection with such Limited Condition Transaction under a non-ratio-based basket (which shall  occur within five Business Days of the events in the preceding clause (i) above), then the applicable  ratio will be calculated with respect to any such action under the applicable ratio-based basket  without regard to any such action under such non-ratio-based basket made in connection with such  Limited Condition Transaction.  Section 1.10 Rates.  The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility  for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation of, administration of,  

 

  88  AmericasActive:17030364.10  submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the ABR, the Term SOFR Reference  Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR or Term SOFR, or any component definition thereof or rates referred  to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any  Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such  alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar  to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity  as, ABR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR, Term SOFR or any other  Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or  composition of any Conforming Changes.  The Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other  related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of ABR, the Term SOFR  Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, any alternative, successor or replacement rate  (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a  manner adverse to the Borrower.  The Administrative Agent may select information sources or  services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain ABR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term  SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to the terms of this  Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity  for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential  damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in  equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such  information source or service.  ARTICLE II    THE CREDITS  Section 2.01 Commitments.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein:  (1) Revolving Loans.  Each Lender severally (and not jointly) agrees to make loans  (“Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower in Dollars from time to time during the  Availability Period in amounts not to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Facility  Percentage of the Borrowing Base, and in an aggregate principal amount that will  not result in (i) such Lender’s Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeding such  Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment or (ii) the total Revolving Facility Credit  Exposure exceeding the total Revolving Facility Commitments.  Within the  foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the  Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.  (2) Overadvances.  Insofar as the Borrower may request and the Administrative Agent  may be willing in its sole discretion (but with absolutely no obligation) to (i) make  Revolving Loans to the Borrower, on behalf of the Revolving Lenders, at a time  when the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeds, or would exceed with the  making of any such Revolving Loan, the Borrowing Base (any such Loan being  herein referred to individually as an “Overadvance”) or (ii) deem the amount of  Revolving Loans outstanding that are in excess of the Borrowing Base to be  Overadvances, and the Administrative Agent will enter such Overadvances as  debits in the applicable Loan Account.  All Overadvances shall be ABR Loans, will  be repaid on demand, will be secured by the Collateral and will bear interest as  

 

  89  AmericasActive:17030364.10  provided in this Agreement for ABR Revolving Loans generally.  Any  Overadvance made pursuant to the terms hereof will be made to the Borrower by  all Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Facility  Percentages.  Overadvances in the aggregate amount of $10.0 million or less may,  unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, be made in the  sole discretion of the Administrative Agent; provided that the Required Revolving  Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authorization to make  future Overadvances; provided that no existing Overadvances will be subject to  such revocation and any such revocation must be in writing and will become  effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof.  Overadvances in an aggregate amount of more than $10.0 million but less than  $25.0 million may, unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is  continuing, be made with the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders.   Overadvances in an aggregate amount of $25.0 million or more and Overadvances  to be made after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or Event  of Default will require the consent of all Revolving Lenders. No Overadvance shall  result in a Default due to Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 2.01 for so  long as such Overadvance remains outstanding in accordance with the terms of this  Section 2.01(2), but solely with respect to the amount of such Overadvance.  The  making of an Overadvance on any one occasion shall not obligate the  Administrative Agent to make any Overadvance on any other occasion.  The  foregoing notwithstanding, in no event, unless otherwise consented to by all  Revolving Lenders will:  (a) any Overadvances be outstanding for more than 90 consecutive days;  (b) the Administrative Agent or Lenders make any additional Overadvances  unless 30 days or more have expired since the last date on which any  Overadvances were outstanding; or  (c) will the Administrative Agent make Revolving Loans on behalf of Lenders  under this Section 2.01(2) to the extent such Revolving Loans would cause  a Lender’s share of the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure to exceed such  Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment or cause the aggregate Revolving  Facility Commitments to be exceeded.  (3) Protective Advances.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event  of Default, the Administrative Agent, in its sole, discretion (but with absolutely no  obligation), may make Revolving Loans to the Borrower on behalf of all Lenders,  so long as the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loans will not exceed 5.0% of  the Borrowing Base, if the Administrative Agent, in its Reasonable Credit  Judgment, deems that such Revolving Loans are necessary or desirable to:  (a) preserve or protect all or any portion of the Collateral;  (b) enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment of the Loans  and the other Obligations; or  

 

  90  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (c) pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrower  pursuant to this Agreement including payments of reimbursable expenses  and other sums payable under the Loan Documents (such Revolving Loans,  “Protective Advances”);  provided that (i) in no event will the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceed the aggregate  Revolving Facility Commitments and (ii) the Required Revolving Lenders under the Revolving  Facility may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authorization to make future Protective  Advances; provided, further, that any such revocation must be in writing and will become effective  prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof and existing Protective Advances  will not be subject to thereto.  Each applicable Lender will be obligated to advance to the Borrower its Revolving Facility  Percentage of each Protective Advance made in accordance with this Section 2.01(3).  If Protective  Advances are made in accordance with the preceding sentence, then all Revolving Lenders will be  bound to make, or permit to remain outstanding, such Protective Advances based upon their  Revolving Facility Percentages in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  All Protective  Advances will be repaid by the Borrower on demand, will be secured by the Collateral and will  bear interest as provided in this Agreement for Revolving Loans generally. All Protective  Advances shall be ABR Loans, will be repaid on demand, will be secured by the Collateral and  will bear interest as provided in this Agreement for ABR Revolving Loans generally.  At any time  that there is Excess Availability and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have been  satisfied, the Administrative Agent may request the Revolving Lenders to make a Revolving Loan  to repay a Protective Advance.  Section 2.02 Loans and Borrowings.  (1) Each Loan will be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same  Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective  Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by  it will not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the  Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender will be responsible for any  other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.  (2) Subject to Section 2.14, each Borrowing will be comprised entirely of ABR Loans  or SOFR Revolving Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith.   Each Lender at its option may make any ABR Loan or SOFR Revolving Loan by  causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such  Loan; provided that any exercise of such option will not affect the obligation of the  Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and  such Lender will not be entitled to any amounts payable under Section 2.15 or 2.17  solely in respect of increased costs resulting from such exercise and existing at the  time of such exercise.  (3) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any SOFR Revolving Facility  Borrowing, such Borrowing will be in an aggregate amount that is an integral  multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum.  At  

 

  91  AmericasActive:17030364.10  the time that each ABR Revolving Facility Borrowing is made, such Borrowing  will be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing  Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum; provided that an ABR  Revolving Facility Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the  entire unused available balance of the Revolving Facility Commitments or that is  required to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement as contemplated by  Section 2.05(5).  Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the  same time; provided that there will not at any time be more than ten SOFR  Revolving Facility Borrowings outstanding.  (4) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be  entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest  Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.  Section 2.03 Requests for Borrowings.  (1) To request a Revolving Facility Borrowing, (a) with respect to any initial ABR  Borrowing on the Closing Date, the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative  Agent a Borrowing Request not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, one  Business Day before the anticipated Closing Date (or at such later date or time as  the Administrative Agent may agree), requesting that the Lenders make the Loans  on the Closing Date; provided that such Borrowing Request may be conditioned  upon occurrence of the Closing Date and (b) with respect to any other Borrowing,  the Borrower will notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone, if  arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent, (i) in  the case of a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New  York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or  (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time,  on the date of the proposed Borrowing (or in each case, at such later date or time  as the Administrative Agent may agree).  Each such telephonic Borrowing Request  will be irrevocable and will be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile or  e mail to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request substantially in  the form of Exhibit D-1 and signed by the Borrower.  (2) Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request will specify the following  information in compliance with Section 2.02:  (a) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing, which amount will not  exceed Excess Availability;  (b) the date of such Borrowing, which will be a Business Day;  (c) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a SOFR Revolving  Facility Borrowing;  (d) in the case of a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing, the initial Interest  Period to be applicable thereto, which will be a period contemplated by the  definition of the term “Interest Period;”  

 

  92  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (e) if the Borrowing Base contains Eligible Cash, the amount of Eligible Cash  as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the date such  Borrowing Request is delivered; and  (f) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be  disbursed.  (3) Disbursement.  The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative  Agent to disburse the proceeds of each Loan requested pursuant to this  Section 2.03.  The proceeds of each Revolving Loan requested under this  Section 2.03 will be disbursed by the Administrative Agent in immediately  available funds and in the same form as received from the Lenders, in the case of a  borrowing on the Closing Date permitted under Section 2.01(1), in accordance with  the terms of the written disbursement letter from the Borrower and, in the case of  each Borrowing after the Closing Date, by wire transfer to such bank account as  may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, from time to  time or elsewhere if pursuant to a written direction from the Borrower.  If at any  time any Loan is funded in excess of the amount requested by the Borrower, the  Borrower agrees to repay the excess to the Administrative Agent immediately upon  notice thereof to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent.  (4) If no election as to the Type of Revolving Facility Borrowing is specified, then the  requested Revolving Facility Borrowing will be an ABR Borrowing.  If no Interest  Period is specified with respect to any requested SOFR Revolving Facility  Borrowing, then the Borrower will be deemed to have selected an Interest Period  of one month’s duration.  Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in  accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent will advise the  Lenders of the details thereof and of the amount of each such Lender’s Loan to be  made as part of the requested Borrowing.  Section 2.04 Swingline Commitment.  (1) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender may, in  its sole discretion, make Swingline Loans to the Borrower, from time to time during  the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time  not to exceed the lesser of (i) the Swingline Commitment then in effect and (ii) the  difference between the Line Cap and the aggregate Revolving Facility Credit  Exposure at such time; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to  make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan.  The Borrower  shall be entitled to borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans in accordance with  the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  (2) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic  notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Swingline Borrowing Request,  substantially in the form of Exhibit D-3, prior to 10:00 a.m. on the requested date  of each Swingline Borrowing.  Each Swingline Borrowing Request shall be  irrevocable and shall specify (i) the principal amount of such Swingline Borrowing,  

 

  93  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (ii) the date of such Swingline Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii)  the account of the Borrower to which the proceeds of such Swingline Borrowing  should be credited.  The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline  Lender of each Swingline Borrowing Request.  The aggregate principal amount of  each Swingline Loan shall not be less than $100,000 or a larger multiple of $50,000,  or such other minimum amounts agreed to by the Swingline Lender and the  Borrower.  The Swingline Lender will make the proceeds of each Swingline Loan  available to the Borrower in Dollars in immediately available funds at the account  specified by the Borrower in the applicable Swingline Borrowing Request not later  than 1:00 p.m. on the requested date of such Swingline Borrowing.  (3) The Swingline Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion, may,  but in no event no less frequently than once each calendar week shall, on behalf of  the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Swingline  Lender to act on its behalf), give a Swingline Borrowing Request to the  Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender) to  make ABR Loans in an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of any  Swingline Loan.  Each Lender will make the proceeds of its ABR Loan included in  such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the  Swingline Lender in accordance with Section 2.06, which will be used solely for  the repayment of such Swingline Loan.  (4) If for any reason an ABR Borrowing may not be (as determined in the sole  discretion of the Administrative Agent), or is not, made in accordance with the  foregoing provisions, then each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) shall  purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swingline Loan in an amount  equal to its Revolving Facility Percentage thereof on the date that such ABR  Borrowing should have occurred.  On the date of such required purchase, each  Lender shall promptly transfer, in immediately available funds, the amount of its  participating interest to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline  Lender.  (5) Each Lender’s obligation to make an ABR Loan pursuant to paragraph (3) of this  Section or to purchase participating interests pursuant to paragraph (4) of this  Section shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any  circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim,  recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender or any other Person may have  or claim against the Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any  reason whatsoever, (ii) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default or the  termination of any Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment, (iii) the existence (or  alleged existence) of any event or condition which has had or could reasonably be  expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or  any other Loan Document by any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any  Lender or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or  not similar to any of the foregoing.  If such amount is not in fact made available to  the Swingline Lender by any Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to  recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with accrued interest  

 

  94  AmericasActive:17030364.10  thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof (x) at the Federal Funds Rate  until the second Business Day after such demand and (y) at the ABR at all times  thereafter.  Until such time as such Lender makes its required payment, the  Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans  in the amount of the unpaid participation for all purposes of the Loan Documents.   In addition, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments  made of principal and interest on its Loans and any other amounts due to it  hereunder to the Swingline Lender to fund the amount of such Lender’s  participation interest in such Swingline Loans that such Lender failed to fund  pursuant to this Section, until such amount has been purchased in full.  Section 2.05 Letters of Credit.  (1) General.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may  request the issuance of (a) trade letters of credit in Dollars in support of trade  obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party incurred in the ordinary  course of business (such letters of credit issued for such purposes, “Trade Letters  of Credit”) and (b) standby letters of credit in Dollars issued for any other lawful  purposes of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party (such letters of credit issued  for such purposes, “Standby Letters of Credit”) for its own account or for the  account of any Subsidiary in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing  Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period and prior to  the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. “Letters of Credit”  will include Trade Letters of Credit and Standby Letters of Credit and the Existing  Letters of Credit.  Each Existing Letter of Credit will be deemed to have been issued  under this Section 2.05 on the Closing Date.  The Borrower unconditionally and  irrevocably agrees that, in connection with any Letter of Credit issued for the  support of any Subsidiary’s obligations as provided in the first sentence of this  paragraph, the Borrower will be fully responsible for the reimbursement of L/C  Disbursements in accordance with the terms hereof, the payment of interest thereon  and the payment of fees due under Section 2.12(2) to the same extent as if it were  the sole account party in respect of such Letter of Credit (the Borrower hereby  irrevocably waiving to the fullest extent permitted by law any defenses (other than  payment or performance) that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or  surety of the obligations of such Subsidiary that is an account party in respect of  any such Letter of Credit).  (2) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension.  (a) To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, extension,  reinstatement or renewal (other than an automatic extension in accordance  with paragraph (3) of this Section 2.05) of an outstanding Letter of Credit),  the Borrower will deliver by hand or facsimile (or transmit by e-mail, if  arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing  Bank) to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent no later  than three Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance,  amendment or extension (or such shorter period as the Administrative  

 

  95  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Agent and the Issuing Bank in their sole discretion may agree) a Letter of  Credit Request requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying  the Letter of Credit to be amended, extended, reinstated or renewed, and  specifying the date of issuance, amendment, extension, reinstatement or  renewal (which will be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of  Credit is to expire (which will comply with paragraph (3) of this  Section 2.05), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of  the beneficiary thereof, whether such Letter of Credit constitutes a Standby  Letter of Credit or a Trade Letter of Credit, and such other information as  is necessary to issue, amend, extend, reinstate or renew such Letter of  Credit.  If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower will also  submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form  in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit.  In the event of any  conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this  Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit  application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into  by the Borrower with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the  terms and conditions of this Agreement will control. A Letter of Credit will  be issued, amended, extended, reinstated or renewed only if (and upon  issuance, amendment, extension, reinstatement or renewal of each Letter of  Credit the Borrower will be deemed to represent and warrant that), after  giving effect to such issuance, amendment, extension, reinstatement or  renewal:  (i) the Revolving L/C Exposure will not exceed the Letter of Credit  Sublimit; and  (ii) the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure will not exceed the Line  Cap.  (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Issuing  Bank will not issue (or be obligated to issue) any Letter of Credit if:  (i) the proceeds of such Letter of Credit would be made available to  any Person (A) to fund any activity or business of or with any  Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of  such funding, is the subject of country-wide or territory-wide  Sanctions or (B) in any manner that would result in a violation of  any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement;  (ii) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or  arbitrator by its terms purports to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank  from issuing such Letter of Credit;  (iii) any applicable Law or any request or directive (whether or not  having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with  

 

  96  AmericasActive:17030364.10  jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank prohibits or shall request that the  Issuing Bank refrain from the issuance of letters of credit generally;  (iv) such Letter of Credit imposes upon the Issuing Bank with respect to  such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement  (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated  hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date;  (v) such Letter of Credit imposes upon the Issuing Bank any  unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable on the  Closing Date and that the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material  to it;  (vi) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more  policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally;  or  (vii) any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing  Bank has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of cash  collateral in accordance herewith in an amount to be agreed between  the Borrower and each applicable Issuing Bank (but in any event not  to exceed 105%) of the outstanding amount of the applicable Letters  of Credit, reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank with the  Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s actual or  potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.24(1))  with respect to such Defaulting Lender arising from either such  Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or such Letter of Credit  and all other L/C Obligations as to which such Issuing Bank has  actual or potential Fronting Exposure.  (3) Expiration Date.  (a) Each Standby Letter of Credit will expire at or prior to the close of business  on the earlier of (i) the date one year (unless otherwise agreed upon by the  Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank in their sole discretion) after the  date of issuance of such Standby Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any  extension of the expiration date thereof (whether automatic or by  amendment), one year (unless otherwise agreed upon by the Administrative  Agent and the Issuing Bank in their sole discretion) after such extension)  and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date;  provided that any Standby Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may  provide for the automatic extension thereof for additional one-year periods  (which will in no event extend beyond the date referred to in the preceding  clause (ii)) so long as such Standby Letter of Credit permits the Issuing  Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each 12-month period  (commencing with the date of issuance of such Standby Letter of Credit) by  giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof within a time period during  

 

  97  AmericasActive:17030364.10  such 12-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Standby Letter of  Credit is issued; provided, further, that if the Issuing Bank and the  Administrative Agent each consent in their sole discretion, the expiration  date of any Standby Letter of Credit may extend beyond the date referred to  in clause (ii) above if cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to  arrangements reasonably acceptable to the relevant Issuing Bank; and,  provided, further, that (A) if any such Standby Letter of Credit is issued  after the date that is 30 days prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower will,  upon the request of the applicable Issuing Bank, provide cash collateral  pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative  Agent and the relevant Issuing Bank in an amount equal to 103% of the face  amount of each such Standby Letter of Credit on or prior to such date of  issuance (or such later date as the Administrative Agent and the Issuing  Bank may agree) and (B) each Revolving Lender’s participation in any  undrawn Letter of Credit that is outstanding on the Maturity Date will  terminate on the Maturity Date.  (b) Each Trade Letter of Credit will expire on the earlier of (A) 180 days after  such Trade Letter of Credit’s date of issuance or (B) the date that is five  Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.  (4) Participations.  By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter  of Credit increasing the amount or extending the expiration date thereof) and  without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the  Revolving Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender,  and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation  in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Facility  Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of  Credit.  Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to  pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, its Revolving  Facility Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not  reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (5) of this  Section 2.05, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the  Borrower for any reason.  Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its  obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters  of Credit is absolute and unconditional and will not be affected by any circumstance  whatsoever, including any amendment, extension, reinstatement or renewal of any  Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default  or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment will  be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each  Lender further acknowledges and agrees that its participation in each Letter of  Credit will be automatically adjusted to reflect such Lender’s Revolving Facility  Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of  Credit at each time such Lender’s Commitment is amended pursuant to this  Agreement.  (5) [Reserved].  

 

  98  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (6) Obligations Absolute.  The obligations of the Borrower to reimburse L/C  Disbursements as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 2.05 will be absolute,  unconditional and irrevocable, and will be performed strictly in accordance with  the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and  irrespective of:  (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this  Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein;  (b) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to  be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being  untrue or inaccurate in any respect;  (c) any payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against  presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the  terms of such Letter of Credit; or  (d) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any  of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05,  constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff  against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.  (7) Limited Liability.  None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, any Issuing  Bank, or any of their Related Parties, will have any liability or responsibility by  reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by  the respective Issuing Bank or any payment or failure to make any payment  thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding  sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or  delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter  of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any  error in interpretation of technical terms, or any consequence arising from causes  beyond the control of such Issuing Bank, the use that may be made of any Letter of  Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection  therewith; or any of the circumstances referred to in clauses (a), (b) or (c) of Section  2.05(6); provided that the foregoing will not be construed to excuse the applicable  Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as  opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive, damages, claims in respect  of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable  Law) suffered by the Borrower that are determined by a final and binding decision  of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by such Issuing Bank’s  failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents  presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto  expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful  misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank will be  deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the  foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with  respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial  

 

  99  AmericasActive:17030364.10  compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may,  in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without  responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to  the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such  documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.  (8) Disbursement Procedures.  The applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower  and the Administrative Agent of such demand for payment and whether such  Issuing Bank has made or will make a L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that  such notice need not be given prior to payment by such Issuing Bank and any failure  to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation  to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to such L/C  Disbursement.  The Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to  reimburse each Issuing Bank for any L/C Disbursements paid by such Issuing Bank  in respect of such drawing, without presentment, demand or other formalities of  any kind.  Unless the Borrower shall have notified the applicable Issuing Bank and  the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day immediately  prior to the date on which such drawing is honored that the Borrower intends to  reimburse such Issuing Bank for the amount of such drawing in funds other than  from the proceeds of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have  timely given a Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent requesting the  Lenders to make an ABR Borrowing on the date on which such drawing is honored  in an exact amount due to such Issuing Bank; provided that for purposes solely of  such Borrowing, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 shall not be  applicable.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of such Borrowing  in accordance with Section 2.03, and each Lender shall make the proceeds of its  ABR Loan included in such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for  the account of the applicable Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.06.  The  proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied directly by the Administrative Agent  to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for such L/C Disbursement.  (9) Interim Interest.  If an Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit makes any L/C  Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower reimburses such L/C Disbursement in full  on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof will bear  interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Disbursement is made  to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such L/C Disbursement, at  the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans and such interest shall  be due and payable on the date when such reimbursement is made; provided that,  if such L/C Disbursement is not reimbursed by the Borrower when due pursuant to  paragraph (8) of this Section 2.05, then Section 2.13(3) will apply.  Interest accrued  pursuant to this paragraph will be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank,  except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving  Lender pursuant to paragraph (8) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse such Issuing  Bank will be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such  payment.  

 

  100  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (10) Replacement of an Issuing Bank.  An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by  written agreement between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced  Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank.  The Administrative Agent will notify  the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank.  At the time any such  replacement becomes effective, the Borrower will pay all unpaid fees accrued for  the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12.  From and after  the effective date of any such replacement, (a) the successor Issuing Bank will have  all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement  with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (b) references  herein to the term “Issuing Bank” will be deemed to include such successor or any  previous Issuing Bank, or such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the  context will require.  After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the  replaced Issuing Bank will remain a party hereto and will continue to have all the  rights and obligations of such Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to  Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement but will not be required to  issue additional Letters of Credit.  (11) Cash Collateralization.  If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, on the  Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent  demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph (11), the  Borrower will deposit in an account with or at the direction of the Administrative  Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving  Lenders, an amount in cash to be agreed between the Borrower and each applicable  Issuing Bank (but in any event not to exceed 105% of the Revolving L/C Exposure  as of such date); provided that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with  respect to the Borrower described in Section 8.01(8) or (9), the obligation to deposit  such cash collateral will become effective immediately, and such deposit will  become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind.   Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph will be held by the Administrative  Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the  Borrower under this Agreement.  The Administrative Agent will have exclusive  dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such  account.  Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which  investments will be made at the option and sole discretion of (i) for so long as an  Event of Default is continuing, the Administrative Agent and (ii) at any other time,  the Borrower, in each case, in Cash Equivalents and at the risk and expense of the  Borrower, such deposits will not bear interest.  Interest or profits, if any, on such  investments will accumulate in such account.  Moneys in such account will be  applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for L/C  Disbursements for which such Issuing Bank has not been reimbursed and, to the  extent not so applied, will be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement  obligations of the Borrower for the Revolving L/C Exposure at such time or, if the  maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of the  Required Lenders, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this  Agreement.  If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral  hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the  

 

  101  AmericasActive:17030364.10  extent not applied as aforesaid) will be returned to the Borrower within three  Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.  (12) Additional Issuing Banks.  From time to time, the Borrower may, by notice to the  Administrative Agent, designate any Lender (in addition to Truist Bank, JPMorgan  Chase Bank N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association) to act as an Issuing  Bank; provided that such Lender agrees in its sole discretion to act as such and such  Lender is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as an Issuing Bank  (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).  Each such  additional Issuing Bank will execute a counterpart of this Agreement and will  thereafter be an Issuing Bank hereunder for all purposes.  The Borrower may, in its  sole discretion, request a Letter of Credit issuance from any Issuing Bank.  (13) Reporting.  Upon the request of any Lender, but no more frequently than quarterly,  each Issuing Bank shall deliver (through the Administrative Agent) to each Lender  and the Borrower a report describing the aggregate Letters of Credit issued by such  Issuing Bank that are then outstanding.  Upon the request of any Lender from time  to time, the applicable Issuing Bank shall deliver to such Lender any other  information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to each Letter of  Credit issued by such Issuing Bank then outstanding.  (14) Reallocation.  If the Maturity Date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Facility  Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one  or more other tranches of Revolving Facility Commitments in respect of which the  Maturity Date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall  automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the  obligations of the Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make  Revolving Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.05(5))  under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Facility  Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate  amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving  Facility Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial  face amount of any Letter of Credit may be reallocated); provided, in no event shall  such reallocation cause a Lender’s share of the Revolving Facility Commitment to  exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant  to the immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall cash collateralize any  such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.05(11).  If, for any reason, such  cash collateral is not provided or reallocation does not occur, the Revolving Lenders  under the maturing tranche shall continue to be responsible for their participating  interests in the Letters of Credit.  Except to the extent of reallocations of  participations pursuant to clause (i) of the second preceding sentence, the  occurrence of a Maturity Date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Facility  Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage  participations of the Revolving Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such  Maturity Date.  Commencing with the Maturity Date of any tranche of Revolving  Facility Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit shall be agreed with the  Lenders under the extended tranches.  

 

  102  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (15) ISP/UCP.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by an Issuing Bank and the Borrower  when a Letter of Credit is issued by such Issuing Bank and subject to applicable  laws, (a) each Standby Letter of Credit shall be governed by the “International  Standby Practices 1998” (ISP98) (or such later revision as may be published by the  Institute of International Banking Law & Practice on any date any Letter of Credit  may be issued) (the “ISP”), (b) each Trade Letter of Credit shall be governed by  the Uniform Customs and Practices for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision),  International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (or such later revision as  may be published by the International Chamber of Commerce on any date any  Letter of Credit may be issued) (the “UCP”) and (c) the Borrower shall specify the  foregoing in each letter of credit application submitted for the issuance of a Letter  of Credit.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuing Bank shall be responsible to  the Borrower for, and such Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against the Borrower  shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of such Issuing Bank required or  permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be  applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the laws or any order  of a jurisdiction where such Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice  stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice  statements, or official commentary of the International Chamber of Commerce  Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade (BAFT), or  the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of  Credit chooses such Laws or practice rules.  Section 2.06 Funding of Borrowings.  (1) Each Lender will make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date  thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 10:00 a.m., New York  City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by  it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that (a) same-day ABR Loans  will be made by each Lender on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of  immediately available funds by 3:00 p.m., New York City time and (b) Swingline  Loans will be made as set forth in Section 2.04.  The Administrative Agent will  make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so  received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower as specified in the applicable  Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the  reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement and reimbursements as provided in  Section 2.05(5) will be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable  Issuing Bank.  (2) Unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender prior to the  proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the  Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative  Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in  accordance with paragraph (1) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance upon such  assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such  event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing  available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower  

 

  103  AmericasActive:17030364.10  severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without  duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from  and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but  excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent at (a) in the case of such  Lender, the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the  Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank  compensation or (b) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR  Loans at such time.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent  then such amount will constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.  Section 2.07 Interest Elections.  (1) Each Borrowing initially will be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing  Request and, in the case of a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing, will have an  initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.  Thereafter, the  Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue  such Borrowing and, in the case of a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing, may  elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07.  The Borrower  may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected  Borrowing, in which case each such portion will be allocated ratably among the  Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising  each such portion will be considered a separate Borrowing.  (2) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.07 following the Closing Date, the  Borrower will notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone (a) in  the case of an election to convert to or continue a SOFR Revolving Facility  Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days  before the date of such election or (b) in the case of an election to convert to or  continue an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on such  election date (which shall be a Business Day) (or in each case at such later date or  time as the Administrative Agent may agree).  Each such telephonic Interest  Election Request will be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile  transmission or e-mail to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election  Request substantially in the form of Exhibit E and signed by the Borrower.  (3) (a) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request will be irrevocable  and will specify the following information:  (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and,  if different options are being elected with respect to different  portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each  resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified  pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below will be specified for each  resulting Borrowing);  (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest  Election Request, which will be a Business Day;  

 

  104  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a  SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing; and  (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing,  the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such  election, which will be a period contemplated by the definition of  “Interest Period.”  (b) If any such Interest Election Request requests a SOFR Revolving Facility  Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower will  be deemed to have selected a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing having  an Interest Period of one month’s duration.  (4) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative  Agent will advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s  portion of each resulting Borrowing.  (5) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a  SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period  applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the  end of such Interest Period, such Borrowing will be automatically converted into  or continued as an ABR Borrowing.  (6) Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred  and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the written request (including a  request through electronic means) of the Required Lenders, so notifies the  Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, (a) no outstanding  Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a SOFR Revolving Facility  Borrowing and (b) unless repaid, each SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing will be  converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.  Section 2.08 Termination and Reduction of Commitments.  (1) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments will terminate on the Maturity  Date.  (2) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the  Revolving Facility Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving  Facility Commitments will be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000  and not less than $1.0 million (or, if less, the remaining amount of the applicable  Revolving Facility Commitments) and (ii) the Borrower will not terminate or  reduce the Revolving Facility Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent  prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the Revolving  Facility Credit Exposure would exceed the lesser of the total Revolving Facility  Commitments and the Borrowing Base.  (3) The Borrower will notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or  reduce the Revolving Facility Commitments under paragraph (2) of this  

 

  105  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Section 2.08 at least three Business Days prior to the date of such termination or  reduction, specifying such election and the date thereof (or at such later date or time  as the Administrative Agent may agree).  Promptly following receipt of any notice,  the Administrative Agent will advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each  notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.08 will be irrevocable;  provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Facility Commitments  delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is revocable or conditioned  upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or a specified transaction, in which  case such notice may be revoked or extended by the Borrower (by notice to the  Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified termination date).  Any  termination or reduction of the Commitments will be permanent.  Each reduction  of the Commitments will be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with  their respective Commitments.  Section 2.09 Promise to Pay; Evidence of Debt.  (1) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent  for the account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each  Revolving Loan and Swingline Loan on the Maturity Date.  (2) Any Lender (including the Swingline Lender) may request that Loans made by it  be evidenced by a Note.  In such event, the Borrower will prepare, execute and  deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such  Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the  Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower.  (3) The Administrative Agent will maintain accounts in which it will record (a) the  amount of each Loan to the Borrower made hereunder, the Type thereof and the  Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (b) the amount of any principal or interest  due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender  hereunder and (c) any amount received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for  the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.  The entries made in  the accounts maintained pursuant to this paragraph (3) will be prima facie evidence  of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the  failure of the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein  will not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the  Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Section 2.10 Optional Repayment of Loans.  (1) The Borrower will have the right at any time and from time to time to repay any  Loan in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.16),  in an aggregate principal amount, (a) in the case of SOFR Revolving Loans, that is  an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1.0 million, and (b) in the case  of ABR Loans, that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000,  or, in each case, if less, the amount outstanding; provided that no portion of the  

 

  106  AmericasActive:17030364.10  principal of any Refinancing Term Loans may be prepaid prior to the Discharge of  ABL Revolving Claims unless such prepayment is permitted under Section 6.11(1).  (2) Prior to any repayment of any Revolving Loans, the Borrower will select the  Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid and will notify the Administrative Agent  (and, in respect of Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender) by telephone  (confirmed by hand delivery, facsimile transmission or e-mail) of such selection  not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, (a) in the case of an ABR Borrowing,  one Business Day before the anticipated date of such repayment, (b) in the case of  a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing, three Business Days before the anticipated  date of such repayment (or in each case, at such later date or time as the  Administrative Agent may agree) and (c) in the case of any Swingline Borrowing,  prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date of such prepayment.  Each repayment of a Borrowing  will be applied to the Revolving Loans included in the repaid Borrowing such that  each Revolving Lender receives its ratable share of such repayment (based upon  the respective Revolving Facility Credit Exposures of the Revolving Lenders at the  time of such repayment).  Repayments of SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowings  will be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid, together with any  amounts due under Section 2.16.  Section 2.11 Mandatory Repayment of Loans.  (1) Except for Overadvances permitted under Section 2.01, in the event the aggregate  amount of the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeds the Line Cap at such  time, then the Borrower will within three (3) Business Days repay outstanding  Revolving Loans, and, if there remains an excess after paying all Revolving Loans,  cash collateralize Letters of Credit (in accordance with Section 2.05(11)) in an  aggregate amount equal to such excess, in each case with no reduction in  commitments.  (2) In the event and on such occasion as the Revolving L/C Exposure exceeds the Letter  of Credit Sublimit, the Borrower will within three (3) Business Days deposit cash  collateral (in accordance with Section 2.05(11)) in an amount equal to such excess.  (3) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Period, all  amounts in the Dominion Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent  pursuant to Section 5.11(2).  Section 2.12 Fees.  (1) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each  Revolving Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), a commitment fee (a  “Commitment Fee”) on the average daily amount of the Available Unused  Commitment of such Lender, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the  Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage during the period from and including the  Closing Date to but excluding the earlier of the Maturity Date and any date on  which the Commitments of all the Lenders are otherwise terminated as provided

(2) The Borrower agrees to pay to:  (a) the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender (other  than any Defaulting Lender, it being understood that at any time the Issuing  Bank has Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, the L/C  Participation Fee with respect to such Fronting Exposure will be payable to  the Issuing Bank for its own account), a fee with respect to its participation  in each outstanding Letter of Credit (an “L/C Participation Fee”) on the  daily aggregate L/C Amount, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal  to the Applicable Margin for SOFR Revolving Loans during the period  from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the earlier of the  Maturity Date and any date on which the Commitments of all the Lenders  are otherwise terminated as provided herein. Accrued L/C Participation  Fees will be payable in arrears on the first (1st) Business Day after the end  of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal quarter  of the Borrower ending on June 30, 2022 and on each Maturity Date and  any date on which the Commitments of all the Lenders are terminated as  provided herein.  (b) each Issuing Bank, for its own account, (i) a fronting fee with respect to  each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank at a rate per annum equal  to the percentage separately agreed upon between the Borrower and such  Issuing Bank (such rate per annum not to exceed 0.125%) on the daily L/C  Amount with respect to such Letter of Credit, during the period from and  including the date of issuance or extension (as applicable) of such Letter of  Credit and to but excluding the date of termination of such Letter of Credit  and (ii) such Issuing Bank’s customary issuance fees and customary  documentary and processing fees and charges (collectively, “Issuing Bank  Fees”).  All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees that are payable  in Dollars on a per annum basis will be computed on the basis of the actual  number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day)  in a year of 360 days.  Issuing Bank Fees accrued will be payable in arrears  on the first (1st) Business Day after the end of each fiscal quarter of the  Borrower, commencing with the fiscal quarter of the Borrower ending on  June 30, 2022 and on each Maturity Date and any date on which the  Commitments of all the Lenders are terminated as provided herein.  (3) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the  administrative agent’s fee in respect of the Revolving Facility set forth in the Fee  

 

  108  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Letter at the times and on the terms specified therein or in such other amounts and  at such other times as may be separately agreed in writing by the Administrative  Agent and the Borrower from time to time (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).  (4) All Fees will be paid on the dates due and payable, in immediately available funds,  to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office for distribution, if and as  appropriate, among the Lenders, except that Issuing Bank Fees will be paid directly  to the applicable Issuing Banks.  Once paid, none of the Fees will be refundable  under any circumstances (except as expressly agreed between the Borrower and the  Administrative Agent, including pursuant to the Fee Letter).

(2) The Loans comprising each SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing will bear interest  at Adjusted Term SOFR for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus  the Applicable Margin.  (3) Following the occurrence and during the continuation of a Specified Event of  Default, the Borrower will pay interest on overdue amounts hereunder at a rate per  annum equal to (a) in the case of overdue principal of, or interest on, any Loan,  2.0% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding  paragraphs of this Section 2.13 or (b) in the case of any other overdue amount, 2.0%  plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in clause (1) of this Section 2.13.

  109  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (including the first day but excluding the last day).  The applicable ABR, Adjusted  Term SOFR or SOFR will be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such  determination will be conclusive absent manifest error.  Section 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest; Benchmark Replacement Setting.  (1) Subject to paragraphs (2) through (6) of this Section 2.14, if prior to the  commencement of any Interest Period for a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing:  (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination will be  conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do  not exist for ascertaining Adjusted Term SOFR or SOFR, as applicable, for  such Interest Period; or  (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Revolving Lenders and  the Required Term Lenders that Adjusted Term SOFR or SOFR, as  applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the  cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such  Borrowing for such Interest Period;  then the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to the Borrower and the  Lenders by telephone, facsimile transmission or e-mail as promptly as practicable  thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the  Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any  Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any applicable Borrowing  to, or continuation of any such Borrowing as, a SOFR Revolving Facility  Borrowing will be ineffective and such Borrowing will be converted to or continued  as on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto an ABR Borrowing, and  (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing, such  Borrowing will be made as an ABR Borrowing.  (2) Benchmark Replacement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in  any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related  Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior any setting of the then-current  Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with  clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark  Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for  all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such  Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to,  or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan  Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with  clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark  Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for  all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark  setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of  such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment  to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other  

 

  110  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time,  written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders  comprising the Required Lenders.  If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple  SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis.  (3) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  In connection with the use,  administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the  Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time  to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan  Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become  effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement  or any other Loan Document.  (4) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations.  The Administrative Agent  will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any  Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in  connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a  Benchmark Replacement.  The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower of  (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section  2.14(5) and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Any  determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent  or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14,  including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the  occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision  to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and  binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and  without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan  Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.  (5) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary  herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with  the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current  Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either  (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information  service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative  Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the  administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of  information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will be not be  representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of  “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark  settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor  and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is  subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark  (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an  announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including  a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the  

 

  111  AmericasActive:17030364.10  definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all  Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.  (6) Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the  commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke  any pending request for a SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowing of, conversion to or  continuation of SOFR Revolving Loans to be made, converted or continued during  any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be  deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or  conversion to ABR Loans.  During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any  time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the  component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such  Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR.  Section 2.15 Increased Costs.  (1) If any Change in Law:  (a) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or  similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or  credit extended by, any Lender or Issuing Bank;  (b) imposes on any Lender or Issuing Bank any condition (other than Taxes)  affecting this Agreement or SOFR Revolving Loans made by such Lender  or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or  (c) subjects any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes and  (ii) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit,  commitments or other obligations, or deposits, reserves, other liabilities or  capital attributable thereto;  and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or  maintaining any SOFR Revolving Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan)  or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining  any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or  Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay  to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will  compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or  reduction suffered.  (2) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital  or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return  on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or  Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the  Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the  Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such  Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding  company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into  

 

  112  AmericasActive:17030364.10  consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such  Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy  or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such  Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate  such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding  company for any such reduction suffered.  (3) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts  necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as  applicable, as specified in paragraph (1) or (2) of this Section 2.15 will be delivered  to the Borrower and will be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower will  pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any  such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof.  (4) Promptly after any Lender or any Issuing Bank has determined that it will make a  request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15, such Lender or  Issuing Bank will notify the Borrower thereof.  Failure or delay on the part of any  Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 will  not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such  compensation; provided that the Borrower will not be required to compensate a  Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs or  reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing  Bank, as applicable, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such  increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to  claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that if the Change in Law giving  rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period  referred to above will be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.  Section 2.16 Break Funding Payments.  Except as otherwise set forth herein, the  Borrower will compensate each Lender for the actual out-of-pocket loss, cost and expense  (excluding loss of anticipated profits) attributable to the following events:  (1) the payment of any principal of any SOFR Revolving Loan other than on the last  day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of  Default);  (2) the conversion of any SOFR Revolving Loan other than on the last day of the  Interest Period applicable thereto;  (3) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any SOFR Revolving Loan on  the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto; or  (4) the assignment of any SOFR Revolving Loan other than on the last day of the  Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant  to Section 2.19.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such  Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 will be delivered to the Borrower and  

 

  113  AmericasActive:17030364.10  will be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower will pay such Lender the amount shown  as due on any such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof.  Section 2.17 Taxes.  (1) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party  hereunder will be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified  Taxes; provided that if a Loan Party is required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes  from such payments, then (a) the sum payable will be increased as necessary so that  after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional  sums payable under this Section 2.17) the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as  applicable, receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no  such deductions been made; (b) such Loan Party will make such deductions; and  (c) such Loan Party will timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant  Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.  (2) In addition, the Loan Parties will pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental  Authority in accordance with applicable law.  (3) Each Loan Party will, jointly and severally, indemnify the Administrative Agent  and each Lender, within ten days after written demand therefor, for the full amount  of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (other  than as a result of the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s gross negligence or  willful misconduct) on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any  obligation of such Loan Party hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or  asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) and any  reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such  Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant  Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability  delivered to such Loan Party by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its  own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, will be conclusive absent manifest error.  (4) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by a Loan Party to  a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party will deliver to the Administrative  Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental  Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment  or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative  Agent.  (5) (1) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of  withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document  will deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or  times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent,  such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested  by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments  to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In  addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the  

 

  114  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Administrative Agent, will deliver such other documentation prescribed by  applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the  Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative  Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup  withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion,  execution and submission of such documentation (other than such  documentation set forth in Sections 2.17(5)(b), 2.17(5)(c) and 2.17(6)  below) will not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such  completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any  material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the  legal or commercial position of such Lender.  (a) Without limiting the effect of Section 2.17(5)(a) above, each Foreign  Lender will deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or  prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this  Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of  the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two original copies of  whichever of the following is applicable:  (i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income  tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, (A) with  respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed  copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E  (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto)  establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal  withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty  and (B) with respect to any other applicable payments under any  Loan Document, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W- 8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S.  federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other  income” article of such tax treaty;  (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI  (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto);  (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the  exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of  the Code, (A) a certificate substantially in the form of the applicable  Exhibit G to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (1) a “bank”  within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code; (2) a “10  percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section  871(h)(3) or Section  881(c)(3)(B) of the Code; or (3) a “controlled  foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code  (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (B) duly completed  copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E  (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto);  

 

  115  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the Beneficial Owner, executed  copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by  Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Internal Revenue Service  Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate  substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, Internal  Revenue Service Form W-9, and/or other certification documents  from each Beneficial Owner, as applicable; provided that if the  Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect  partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest  exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax  Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on  behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; or  (v) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming  exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding  tax duly completed together with such supplementary  documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the  Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding  or deduction required to be made.  In addition, in each of the foregoing circumstances, each Foreign Lender  will deliver such forms, if legally entitled to deliver such forms, promptly  upon the obsolescence, expiration or invalidity of any form previously  delivered by such Foreign Lender.  Each Foreign Lender will promptly  notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines  that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered  certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the  United States of America or other taxing authorities for such purpose).  In  addition, each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender will deliver to the  Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of Internal Revenue  Service Form W-9 (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors  thereto) on or before the date such Lender becomes a party and upon the  expiration of any form previously delivered by such Lender.   Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Lender will not be  required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph (5) that such Lender  is not legally able to deliver;  (b) Truist Bank in its capacity as the Administrative Agent (and any Person  succeeding the Administrative Agent upon assignment or succession under  Section 9.09, if applicable) will also deliver, to the Borrower, on or prior to  the execution and delivery of this Agreement, (i) two duly completed copies  of Internal Revenue Service form W-9 with respect to any amounts payable  to Truist Bank for its own account (or other withholding certification as  appropriate) and (ii) if applicable, two duly completed copies of Internal  Revenue Service Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and  that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively  connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the United States and  

 

  116  AmericasActive:17030364.10  that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to  be treated as a United States person with respect to such payments, with the  effect that the Borrower can make payments to Truist Bank (acting as the  Administrative Agent) without deduction or withholding of any taxes  imposed by the United States.  (6) If a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document would be subject to a  Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the  applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in  Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient will deliver  to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by  law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the  Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including  as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional  documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent  as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with  their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Recipient has complied  with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to  deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (6),  “FATCA” will include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this  Agreement.  Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or  becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it will update such form or certification or  promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability  to do so.  (7) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion,  exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund (including a credit in lieu of a  refund) of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been  indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which such Loan Party has paid  additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it will pay over reasonably  promptly such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity  payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this  Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to  such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such  Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined  by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in good faith, and without interest  (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect  to such refund); provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of the  Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably  practicable the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or  other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the  Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such  Issuing Bank or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental  Authority.  This Section 2.17(7) will not be construed to require the Administrative  Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information  

 

  117  AmericasActive:17030364.10  relating to its Taxes which it deems, in good faith, to be confidential) to the Loan  Parties or any other Person.  (8) Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 will survive the resignation or  replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the  replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment,  satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.  (9) For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA and  the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank.  Section 2.18 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.  (1) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrower will make each payment required to be  made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, reimbursement of L/C  Disbursements or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, at the  Payment Office, except payments to be made directly to the applicable Issuing  Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that (unless the  Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Persons otherwise agree)  payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.05 will be made directly to  the Persons entitled thereto, on the date when due. All payments shall be in  immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any defense,  recoupment, set-off or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such time on any  date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been  received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest  thereon.  The Administrative Agent will distribute any such payments received by  it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly  following receipt thereof and will make settlements with the Lenders with respect  to other payments at the times and in the manner provided in this Agreement.   Except as otherwise provided herein, if any payment hereunder is due on a day that  is not a Business Day, the date for payment will be extended to the next succeeding  Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon  will be payable for the period of such extension.  Any payment required to be made  by the Administrative Agent hereunder will be deemed to have been made by the  time required if the Administrative Agent, at or before such time, has taken the  necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or  operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the  Administrative Agent to make such payment.  (2) [Reserved].  (3) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if (a) at any time insufficient funds  are received by and available to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower to pay  fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed L/C Disbursements, interest and fees  and other Obligations then due from the Borrower hereunder or (b) at any time  during a Cash Dominion Period (including in connection with any termination of  the Revolving Facility Commitments pursuant to Section 8.01) and the  

 

  118  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent receives proceeds of Collateral, such  funds will be applied,  (i) first, toward payment of any expenses, fees and indemnities due to  the Agents, Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank hereunder;  (ii) second, toward payment of unreimbursed L/C Disbursements,  Protective Advances, Overadvances and the principal amount of any  Swingline Loans then due from the Borrower hereunder, ratably  among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of  unreimbursed L/C Disbursements, Protective Advances,  Overadvances and principal amount of Swingline Loans then due to  such parties;  (iii) third, toward payment of interest and fees then due from the  Borrower hereunder with respect to any Revolving Facility Credit  Exposure, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance  with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties;  (iv) fourth, on a ratable basis, toward (a) payment of other principal then  due from the Borrower hereunder with respect to any Revolving  Facility Credit Exposure, ratably among the parties entitled thereto  in accordance with the amounts of such principal then due to such  parties and (b) payment of Specified Hedge Obligations up to the  amount of Specified Pari Hedge Amount existing therefor, ratably  among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of  such Specified Hedge Obligations then due to such parties;  (v) fifth, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to cash  collateralize Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower  or any Subsidiary in accordance with Section 2.05(11);  (vi) sixth, to pay any other Obligations (excluding any (x) Obligations  with respect to Refinancing Term Loans, (y) Cash Management  Obligations or (z) Specified Hedge Obligations) ratably among the  parties thereto in accordance with such amounts so owed them;  (vii) seventh, to payment of other Specified Hedge Obligations then due  from the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party, ratably among the  parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of Specified  Hedge Obligations then due to such parties;  (viii) eighth, to payment of Cash Management Obligations of the  Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party then due from the Borrower  or such Subsidiary Loan Party, ratably among the parties entitled  thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Cash Management  Obligations then due to such parties;  

 

  119  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (ix) ninth, to payment of all other Obligations (other than those relating  to Refinancing Term Loans) of the Borrower then due and payable,  ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the  amounts of such Obligations then due to such parties;  (x) tenth, toward payment of interest then due from the Borrower  hereunder with respect to the Refinancing Term Loans, ratably  among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of  interest then due to such parties;  (xi) eleventh, toward payment of principal then due from the Borrower  hereunder with respect to the Refinancing Term Loans, ratably  among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of  such principal then due to such parties; and  (xii) twelfth, to payment of all other Obligations of the Borrower then due  and payable with respect to the Refinancing Term Loans, ratably  among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of  such Obligations then due to such parties;  provided that the application of such proceeds at all times will be subject to  the application of proceeds provisions contained in any applicable  Intercreditor Agreement.  (4) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and subject to express priorities  set forth in Section 2.18(3) above, if any Lender, by exercising any right of set-off  or counterclaim or otherwise, obtains payment in respect of any principal of or  interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements  resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate  amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and  accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the  Lender receiving such greater proportion will purchase (for cash at face value)  participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of  other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments will  be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of  principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans and  participations in L/C Disbursements; provided that (a) if any such participations are  purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered,  such participations will be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent  of such recovery, without interest, and (b) the provisions of this paragraph (4) will  not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in  accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by  a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of  its Revolving Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements to any assignee or  participant other than to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof  (as to which the provisions of this paragraph (4) apply).  The Borrower consents to  the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable  

 

  120  AmericasActive:17030364.10  law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing  arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim  with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor  of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.  (5) Subject to the priorities set forth in Section 2.18(3) above, if any Lender, by  exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtains payment in  respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Refinancing Term Loans  resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate  amount of its Refinancing Term Loans and accrued interest thereon than the  proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater  proportion will purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Refinancing  Term Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such  payments will be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate  amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Refinancing Term  Loans; provided that (a) if any such participations are purchased and all or any  portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations will be  rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without  interest, and (b) the provisions of this paragraph (5) will not be construed to apply  to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the  express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as  consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its  Refinancing Term Loans to any assignee or participant other than to the Borrower  or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this  paragraph (5) apply).  The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the  extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a  participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the  Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as  fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such  participation.  (6) Unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from the Borrower prior to the  date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of  the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not  make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has  made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon  such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as  applicable, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made  such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as  applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on  demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest  thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it  to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of  the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in  accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.  

 

  121  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (7) If any Lender fails to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to  Section 2.05(4) or (5), 2.06(2) or 2.18(6), then the Administrative Agent may, in its  discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts  thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to  satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied  obligations are fully paid.  Section 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.  (1) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is  required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental  Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender  will use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or  booking its Loans hereunder or assign its rights and obligations hereunder to  another of its offices, branches or Affiliates if, in the reasonable judgment of such  Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate or reduce amounts  payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as applicable, in the future and (b) would  not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would  not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect.  The  Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any  Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.  (2) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15 or is a Defaulting Lender,  or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any  Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17,  then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender  and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without  recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section  10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee  that assumes such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender  accepts such assignment); provided that (a) the Borrower shall have received the  prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and the  Issuing Bank, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, to the extent the  consent of such Person would be required under Section 10.04 for an assignment  of Loans or Commitments to such Person, (b) such Lender has received payment  of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and funded  participations in L/C Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all  other amounts payable to it hereunder and (c) in the case of any such assignment  resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required  to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in  such compensation or payments.  No action by or consent of the Defaulting Lender  will be necessary in connection with such removal or assignment. In connection  with any such assignment, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Defaulting  Lender and the replacement Lender will otherwise comply with Section 10.04;  provided that if such Defaulting Lender does not comply with Section 10.04 within  three Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s or the Borrower’s request,  compliance with Section 10.04 will not be required to effect such assignment.  

 

  122  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Nothing in this Section 2.19 will be deemed to prejudice any rights that the  Borrower may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender.  (3) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to  a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that, pursuant to the terms  of Section 10.08, requires the consent of such Lender and with respect to which the  Required Lenders have granted their consent, then the Borrower will have the right  (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) at its sole expense, to  replace such Non-Consenting Lender by deeming such Non-Consenting Lender to  have assigned its Loans and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees  reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and the  Issuing Bank to the extent the consent of such Person would be required under  Section 10.04 for an assignment of Loans or Commitments to such Person;  provided that (a) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting  Lender (including accrued Fees and any amounts due under Section 2.15, 2.16 or  2.17) being removed or replaced will be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender  concurrently with such assignment and (b) such Non-Consenting Lender will have  received payment of an amount equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued  and unpaid interest thereon.  No action by or consent of the Non-Consenting Lender  will be necessary in connection with such removal or assignment, which will be  immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price.  In  connection with any such assignment, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,  such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender will otherwise comply  with Section 10.04; provided that if such Non-Consenting Lender does not comply  with Section 10.04 within three Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s or  the Borrower’s request therefor, compliance with Section 10.04 will not be required  to effect such assignment.  Section 2.20 Illegality.  If any Lender reasonably determines that any change in law has  made it unlawful, or if any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Closing Date that it is  unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain any SOFR Revolving  Loans, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative  Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue SOFR Revolving Loans or to convert  ABR Borrowings to SOFR Revolving Facility Borrowings will be suspended until such Lender  notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such  determination no longer exist.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower will upon demand from  such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), either convert all SOFR Revolving Facility  Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings, either on the last day of the Interest Period  therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Revolving Facility  Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain  such Loans.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower will also pay accrued interest  on the amount so prepaid or converted.  Section 2.21 Incremental Facilities.  (1) Notice.  At any time and from time to time, on one or more occasions, subject to  the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may, by notice to the  

 

  123  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Administrative Agent, increase the Revolving Facility Commitments (each such  increase, an “Incremental Revolving Facility Increase” or “Incremental Facility”,  and such additional Revolving Facility Commitments, the “Incremental  Commitments”).  (2) Ranking.  Any Incremental Commitments will (a) rank pari passu in right of  payment with the Revolving Facility Claims and (b) be secured by the Collateral  on a pari passu basis with the Revolving Facility Claims.  (3) Size. The principal amount of commitments in respect of Incremental Revolving  Facility Increases received pursuant to this Section 2.21 will not exceed, in the  aggregate, an amount equal to the greater of (a) $150,000,000 and (b) on the date  of any such increase, the amount by which the Borrowing Base in effect at such  time exceeds the aggregate Revolving Facility Commitments at such time (which  shall not be a negative number).  Each Incremental Revolving Facility Increase received pursuant to this  Section 2.21 will be in an integral multiple of $1.0 million and in a minimum  aggregate principal amount of $10.0 million (or such lesser minimum amount  approved by the Administrative Agent); provided that such amount may be less  than such minimum amount or integral multiple amount without the Administrative  Agent’s consent if such amount represents all of the remaining availability in  respect of Incremental Revolving Facility Increases available pursuant to this  Section 2.21 at such time.  (4) Incremental Lenders.  Incremental Facilities may be provided by any existing  Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender will have an obligation to  provide any Incremental Facility), or any Additional Lender (collectively, the  “Incremental Lenders”); provided that the Administrative Agent, Swingline  Lender and each Issuing Bank at the time of effectiveness of such Incremental  Facility shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld,  delayed or conditioned) to any Additional Lender’s provision of such Incremental  Facility if such consent by such Person would be required under Section 10.04 for  an assignment of Commitments or Loans to such Additional Lender. The existing  Lenders will not have any right to participate in any arrangement of, and will not  have any right of first refusal or other right to provide all or any portion of, any  Incremental Facility except to the extent the Borrower and the arrangers thereof, if  any, in their discretion, choose to invite or include any such existing Lender (which  may or may not apply to all existing Lenders and may or may not be pro rata among  existing Lenders). Final allocations in respect of any Incremental Facilities will be  made by the Borrower together with the arrangers thereof, if any, in their discretion,  in accordance with this Section 2.21.  (5) Incremental Facility Amendments; Use of Proceeds.  Each Incremental Facility will  become effective pursuant to an amendment (which may, at the option of the  Administrative Agent and the Borrower, be in the form of an amendment and  restatement) (each, an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and,  

 

  124  AmericasActive:17030364.10  as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, the  Administrative Agent and, with respect to any amendment (or amendment and  restatement) of this Agreement, each Incremental Lender providing such  Incremental Facility.  Incremental Facility Amendments may, without the consent  of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan  Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the  Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section  2.21.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender as to the  effectiveness of each Incremental Facility Amendment.  Each of the parties hereto  hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Amendment,  this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as applicable, will be deemed  amended (or amended and restated) to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary  to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Facility evidenced thereby.  This Section 2.21 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 10.08 to the  contrary. The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries may use the proceeds of the  Incremental Facility for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.  (6) Conditions.  The initial availability of any Incremental Facility will be subject  solely to the following conditions, subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to Section  1.09, measured on the date of the initial incurrence under (or, as applicable,  pursuant to Section 1.09, receipt of commitments with respect to) any such  Incremental Facility:  (a) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date such  Incremental Facility is incurred or would exist immediately after giving  effect thereto; provided that the condition set forth in this clause (a) may be  waived or not required (other than with respect to any Specified Event of  Default) by the Persons providing such Incremental Facility in connection  with a Permitted Acquisition or other Investment permitted hereunder;  (b) the representations and warranties in the Loan Documents will be true and  correct in all material respects (except for representations and warranties  that are already qualified by materiality, which representations and  warranties will be accurate in all respects) immediately prior to, and  immediately after giving effect to, the incurrence of such Incremental  Facility; provided that the condition set forth in this clause (b) may be  waived or not required (other than with respect to the Specified  Representations) in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or other  Investment permitted hereunder; and  (c) such other conditions (if any) as may be required by the Incremental  Lenders providing such Incremental Facility, unless such other conditions  are waived by such Incremental Lenders.  (7) Terms. Any Incremental Facility will be on the terms set forth in the Loan  Documents, as amended by the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment;  provided that (a) any Incremental Commitments will (x) rank pari passu in right of  

 

  125  AmericasActive:17030364.10  payment with the Revolving Facility Claims (y) be secured by Collateral on a pari  passu basis with the Revolving Facility Claims and (z) be on terms and pursuant to  documentation applicable to the Revolving Facility Commitments and will form a  part of the existing Revolving Facility; provided that Applicable Margin and  Applicable Commitment Fees, in each case, applicable to Revolving Facility  Commitments and the Revolving Loans may be increased without the consent of  any Lender, in connection with the incurrence of any Incremental Commitments  such that the Applicable Margin and the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage  of the Revolving Facility Commitments are identical to those of any Incremental  Commitments; provided, further, that any commitment, arrangement, upfront or  similar fees for such Incremental Commitments will be as determined by a  Responsible Officer of the Borrower and the lenders providing such Incremental  Commitments and (b) no Incremental Commitments may mature prior to the  Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Facility Commitments existing on the  Closing Date.  (8) Reallocation. Upon each Incremental Revolving Facility Increase in accordance  with this Section 2.21:  (a) each Revolving Lender immediately prior to such increase will  automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each  Incremental Lender providing a portion of such increase, and each such  Incremental Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to  have assumed a portion of such Revolving Lender’s participations  hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that,  after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of  participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding participations  hereunder in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans held by each Revolving  Lender will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Facility  Commitments of all Lenders represented by such Lender’s Revolving  Facility Commitment; and  (b) the Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any  and all actions as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, after giving  effect to such Lender’s Incremental Commitments, the percentage of the  aggregate Revolving Facility Commitments held by each Lender (including  each such Incremental Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate  Revolving Facility Commitments of all Lenders represented by such  Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment, which may be accomplished, at  the discretion of the Administrative Agent following consultation with the  Borrower, by:  (i) requiring any outstanding Loans to be prepaid with the proceeds of  a new Borrowing;  (ii) causing non-increasing Lenders to assign portions of their  outstanding Loans to Incremental Revolving Lenders; or  

 

  126  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (iii) a combination of the foregoing.  Section 2.22 Refinancing Amendments.  (1) Refinancing Term Loans. At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may  obtain from any Lender or any Additional Lender, at its election, Credit Agreement  Refinancing Indebtedness in the form of term loans under a new term loan facility  hereunder (“Refinancing Term Loans”) pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment.   All Refinancing Term Loans shall be secured on a pari passu basis with the  Revolving Facility Claims; provided that (a) any payments in respect thereof shall  be subordinated as required by this Agreement, including (without limitation) as  set forth in Section 2.18(3) and (b) such Refinancing Term Loans shall be subject  to the FILO Intercreditor Provisions.  (2) Refinancing Amendments. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment will  be subject only to the satisfaction on the date thereof of such of the conditions as  may be requested by the providers of the Refinancing Term Loans.  The  Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of  each Refinancing Amendment.  Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon  the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement will be deemed  amended (or amended and restated, as applicable) to the extent (but only to the  extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Refinancing Term Loans  incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the term  loans subject thereto as Refinancing Term Loans).  (3) Required Consents. Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any  Person other than the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders or  Additional Lenders providing the applicable Refinancing Term Loans, effect such  amendments (or amendments and restatements) to this Agreement and the other  Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of  the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this  Section 2.22.  This Section 2.22 supersedes any provisions in Section 10.08 to the  contrary. The transactions contemplated by this Section 2.22 will not require the  consent of any other Lender or any other Person, and the requirements of any  provision of this Agreement (including Sections 2.11 and 2.18) or any other Loan  Document that may otherwise prohibit any transaction contemplated by this Section  2.22 will not apply to any of the transactions effected pursuant to this Section 2.22.  (4) Providers of Refinancing Term Loans. Refinancing Term Loans may be provided  by any existing Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender shall have an  obligation to make all or any portion of any Refinancing Term Loan) or by any  Additional Lender. It is understood that any Lender approached to provide all or a  portion of Refinancing Term Loans may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to  provide such Refinancing Term Loans (it being understood that there is no  obligation to approach any existing Lenders to provide any Refinancing Term  Loans).  

 

  127  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Section 2.23 Extensions of Loans and Revolving Commitments.  (1) Extension Offers.  Pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”)  made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders of Revolving Loans or all  Refinancing Term Lenders (and with respect to any Extension Offer each Lender  may, in its sole discretion, choose whether to accept or reject such Extension Offer),  with a like Maturity Date, the Borrower may extend the Maturity Date of each such  Lender’s Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments and otherwise modify the  terms of such Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments pursuant to the terms of  the relevant Extension Offer, including by increasing the interest rate or fees  payable in respect to such Revolving Facility Commitments (each, an “Extension,”  and each group of Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments so extended, as well  as the original Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments not so extended, being a  “tranche”).  Each Extension Offer will specify the minimum amount of Revolving  Facility Commitments with respect to which an Extension Offer may be accepted,  which will be an integral multiple of $1.0 million and an aggregate principal  amount that is not less than $10.0 million (or (a) if less, the aggregate principal  amount of such Revolving Facility Commitments or (b) such lesser minimum  amount as is approved by the Administrative Agent, such consent not to be  unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and will be made on a pro rata  basis to all Lenders having Revolving Facility Commitments with a like Maturity  Date.  If the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans and Revolving  Facility Commitments (calculated on the face amount thereof) in respect of which  Lenders have accepted an Extension Offer exceeds the maximum aggregate  principal amount of Loans and Revolving Facility Commitments offered to be  extended pursuant to an Extension Offer, then the Loans and Revolving Facility  Commitments of such Lenders will be extended ratably up to such maximum  amount based on the Revolving Facility Commitments of or the principal amounts  (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which the Lenders that  have accepted such Extension Offer.  There is no requirement that any Extension  Offer or Extension Amendment (defined as follows) be subject to any “most  favored nation” pricing provisions.  The terms of an Extension Offer will be  determined by the Borrower and an Extension Offer may contain one or more  conditions to its effectiveness, including that a minimum amount of Loans or  Revolving Facility Commitments or any or all applicable tranches be tendered.  (2) Extension Amendments. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the  Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other  Loan Documents (which may, at the option of the Administrative Agent and the  Borrower, be in the form of an amendment and restatement of this Agreement or  such Loan Document, as applicable) (an “Extension Amendment”) with the  Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches in respect of  Extended Commitments (and related Extended Loans) and such amendments as  may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative  Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new tranches,  in each case, on terms consistent with this Section 2.23.  This Section 2.23  supersedes any provisions in Section 2.18 or 10.08 to the contrary. Except as  

 

  128  AmericasActive:17030364.10  otherwise set forth in an Extension Offer, there will be no conditions to the  effectiveness of an Extension Amendment. Extensions will not constitute a  voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.  (3) Terms of Extension Offers and Extension Amendments.  The terms of any  Extended Commitments (and related Extended Loans) will be set forth in an  Extension Offer and as agreed between the Borrower and the Extending Lenders  accepting such Extension Offer; provided that:  (a) the final maturity date of such Extended Loans will be no earlier than the  Latest Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Loans or Revolving  Facility Commitments subject to such Extension Offer;  (b) any Extended Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments may participate  on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata  basis) in mandatory prepayments of Loans or mandatory terminations of  Revolving Facility Commitments;  (c) such Extended Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments are not secured  by any assets or property that does not constitute Collateral;  (d) such Extended Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments are not  guaranteed by any Person other than a Subsidiary Loan Party; and  (e) the other terms and conditions applicable to the Extended Loans or  Extended Commitments are (i) substantially identical to, or, taken as a  whole, no more favorable to the lenders or holders providing such Extended  Loans or Extended Commitments than those applicable to the Revolving  Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments subject to such Extension Offer  (except for covenants applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity  Date of the Revolving Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments subject  to such Extension Offer) (provided that a certificate of a Responsible  Officer delivered to the Administrative Agent at least four (4) Business  Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent)  prior to the incurrence of such Extended Loans or Extended Commitments  together with a reasonably detailed description of the material covenants  and event of default of such Indebtedness or drafts of the documentation  relating thereto, stating that the Borrower has determined in good faith that  such terms and conditions satisfy the requirement of this clause (d) shall be  conclusive evidence that such Indebtedness satisfies this clause (d) unless  the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower within such four (4)  Business Day (or shorter) period that it disagrees with such determination  (including a description of the basis upon which it disagrees)); provided that  this clause (d) will not apply to (v) terms addressed in the preceding clauses  (a) through (c), (x) interest rate, rate floors, fees, funding discounts and  other pricing terms, (y) redemption, prepayment or other premiums, or (z)  optional prepayment or redemption terms.  

 

  129  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Any Extended Loans will constitute a separate tranche of Loans from the Loans held by  Lenders that did not accept the applicable Extension Offer and such Loans shall also be subject to  the requirements set forth in Section 2.22 with regards to the terms and conditions applicable to  Refinancing Term Loans.  (4) Required Consents. No consent of any Lender or any other Person will be required  to effectuate any Extension, other than the consent of the Administrative Agent  (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the  Borrower and each Extending Lender participating in such Extension with respect  to one or more of its Loans or Revolving Facility Commitments.  The transactions  contemplated by this Section 2.23 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment  of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Loans or Extended  Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer)  will not require the consent of any other Lender or any other Person, and the  requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including Sections 2.18 and  10.08) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension  or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.23 will not apply to any of  the transactions effected pursuant to this Section 2.23.  Section 2.24 Defaulting Lenders.  (1) Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this  Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as  such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable  Law:  (a) Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or  disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this  Agreement is restricted as set forth in Section 10.08.  (b) Reallocation of Payments.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other  amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such  Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant  to Article VIII or otherwise), will be applied at such time or times as may  be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows:  (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting  Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;  (ii) second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by  such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender  hereunder;  (iii) third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by  the Issuing Bank, to be held as cash collateral for future funding  obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any  Letter of Credit;  

 

  130  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (iv) fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event  of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which  such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as  required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative  Agent;  (v) fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the  Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and  released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to  fund Revolving Loans under this Agreement;  (vi) sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the  Issuing Banks or any Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment  of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the  Issuing Banks or any Swingline Lender against such Defaulting  Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its  obligations under this Agreement;  (vii) seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the  payment of any amounts owing to the Loan Parties as a result of any  judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Loan  Parties against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting  Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and  (viii) eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court  of competent jurisdiction;  provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C  Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate  share, such payment will be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to,  all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans  of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender.  Any payments or other amounts paid  or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting  Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.24(1)(b) will be deemed paid to and  redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.  (c) Certain Fees.  Such Defaulting Lender (i) will not be entitled to receive any  Commitment Fee pursuant to Section 2.12(1) or otherwise for any period  during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower will not  be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to  have been paid to such Defaulting Lender) and (ii) will not be entitled to  receive any L/C Participation Fee pursuant to Section 2.12(2) or otherwise  for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (although  the Borrower will be required to pay any such L/C Participation Fee that  otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting  Lender to the non-Defaulting Lenders or Issuing Banks, in accordance with  (and to the extent of) any reallocation of Fronting Exposure to non- 

 

  131  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Defaulting Lenders or as may be retained by the Issuing Bank as cash  collateral in accordance herewith, as the case may be).  (d) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure.   During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of  computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to  acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to  Section 2.05 or Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.04, the Revolving  Facility Percentage of each non-Defaulting Lender will be computed  without giving effect to the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender;  provided, that, each such reallocation will be given effect only to the extent  such that the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire,  refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans, as  applicable, will not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (i) the  Revolving Facility Commitment of such non-Defaulting Lender minus  (ii) the aggregate outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans of such  Defaulting Lender.  (e) Elimination of Remaining Fronting Exposure.  At any time that there exists  a Defaulting Lender and the reallocation described in clause (d) above  cannot, or can only partially, be effected, promptly upon the request of the  Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender, the  Borrower will (without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it  hereunder or under law) (i) first, prepay any Swingline Loans in an amount  equal to the Swingline Lender’s Swingline Exposure with respect to such  Defaulting Lender and (ii) second, deliver cash collateral in an amount to  be agreed between the Borrower and each applicable Issuing Bank, but no  greater than 105% of the outstanding amount of the applicable Letters of  Credit to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the procedures set  forth in Section 2.05(11) in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting  Exposure of the Revolving Facility L/C Exposure (after giving effect to  Section 2.24(1)(d)) which will be held as security for the reimbursement  obligations of the Borrower with respect to the Revolving Facility L/C  Exposure.  (2) Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing  Banks and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a  Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the  Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective  date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which  may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to  the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Revolving Loans of the  other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine  to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded  participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata  basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Facility Percentages  (without giving effect to Section 2.24(1)(d)), whereupon such Lender will cease to  

 

  132  AmericasActive:17030364.10  be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively  with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower  while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that, except to  the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder  from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim  of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting  Lender.  (3) Termination of Defaulting Lender.  The Borrower may terminate the unused  amount of the Commitment of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender upon not less  than three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall  promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section  2.24(1)(b) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account  of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal,  interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that such termination shall not  be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claims any Loan Party, any Agent, any  Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender or any Lender may have against such  Defaulting Lender.  (4) New Swingline Loans.  So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline  Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that  it will have no Swingline Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan.  ARTICLE III    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES  To induce the Lenders to make any extension of credit hereunder on or after the Closing  Date, the Borrower, with respect to itself and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries, represents and  warrants (i) on the Closing Date solely to the extent set forth in Section 4.01(12) and (ii) thereafter,  on the date of any Borrowing or any other extension of credit hereunder to the extent otherwise  required hereunder (and subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to Section 1.09), each of the following  to each Agent and to each of the Lenders:  Section 3.01 Organization; Powers.

Section 3.05 Title to Properties; Liens. Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiary Loan  Parties has valid fee simple title to, or valid leasehold interests in, or easements or other limited  property interests in, all of its Real Properties and valid title to its personal property and assets, in  each case, except for Permitted Liens or defects in title that do not materially interfere with its  ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties and assets for  their intended purposes, in each case, except where the failure to have such title, interest or  easement would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material  Adverse Effect.

  135  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (2) To the knowledge of the Borrower, none of the Borrower, any Restricted Subsidiary  or their respective properties or assets is in violation of (nor will the continued  operation of their material properties and assets as currently conducted violate) any  law, rule or regulation (including any zoning, building, ordinance, code or approval,  or any building permit, but excluding any Environmental Laws, which are subject  to Section 3.13) or any restriction of record or agreement affecting any property, or  is in default with respect to any judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any  Governmental Authority, where such violation or default would reasonably be  expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

For purposes of this Section 3.16, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall  be computed as the amount that would reasonably be expected to become an actual and matured  liability.  Section 3.17 Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Effect.  (1) The consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries  as at December 31, 2021, and related statements of operations and cash flows of  the Borrower and its consolidated subsidiaries fairly present in all material respects  the financial condition of each of the Borrower and their its Subsidiaries as of the  dates thereof and their results of operations for the period covered thereby in  accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered  thereby, except as otherwise expressly noted therein.  (2) Since December 31, 2021, there has been no event that has had, or would  reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material  Adverse Effect.

(5) Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, so long as (i) no Event of Default has  occurred and is continuing and (ii) no Cash Dominion Period is then in effect, the  Loan Parties will have full and complete access to, and may direct the manner of  disposition of, funds in the Blocked Accounts.  (6) Any amounts held or received in the Dominion Account (including all interest and  other earnings with respect thereto, if any) at any time (i) after this Agreement and  the Commitments have been terminated and the Obligations have been Paid in Full  and all Letters of Credit have expired, terminated or been cash collateralized on  terms satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank or (ii) when all Events of Default  have been cured and no Cash Dominion Period is then in effect, in each case will  be remitted to the Loan Parties as the Borrower may direct.

All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and  the other Loan Documents will be deemed modified to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing  (and to permit the taking of the actions described on Schedule 5.12 within the time periods  specified thereon, rather than as elsewhere provided in any of the Loan Documents).

The accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted  value, amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of  additional Indebtedness with the same terms (including any pay-in-kind interest) and increases in  the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of  currencies, will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this  Section 6.01.  The principal amount of any non-interest bearing Indebtedness or other discount  security constituting Indebtedness at any date will be the principal amount thereof that would be  shown on a balance sheet of the Borrower dated such date prepared in accordance with GAAP.  Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to Indebtedness that is otherwise  included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness will not be included in the  determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided that the incurrence of the Indebtedness  represented by such Guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this  Section 6.01. Any incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness with respect to any  Refinanced Debt that was incurred in reliance on a dollar or ratio basket (and not subsequently  reclassified) shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, reload any such dollar or ratio based basket.  For purposes of determining compliance with any Dollar-denominated (or percentage of  EBITDA, if greater) restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the Dollar equivalent principal  amount of Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than Dollars shall be calculated based on  the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the  case of term debt, or first committed or first incurred (whichever yields the lower Dollar  

 

  164  AmericasActive:17030364.10  equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to  Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than Dollars, and such refinancing  would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated (or percentage of EBITDA, if greater) restriction  to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such  refinancing, such Dollar-denominated (or percentage of EBITDA, if greater) restriction will be  deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing  Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced (plus  unpaid accrued interest and premium (including tender premiums) thereon and underwriting  discounts, defeasance costs, fees, commissions and expenses in connection therewith).  Any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Section 6.01 may, at the option of  the Borrower, be Convertible Indebtedness.  Section 6.02 Liens.  Create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien that secures  obligations under any Indebtedness on any property or assets at the time owned by it, except the  following (collectively, “Permitted Liens”):  (1) Liens securing Indebtedness incurred in accordance with Sections 6.01(1) or  6.01(2), including Liens on the Collateral securing obligations in respect of any  Permitted Junior Secured Refinancing Debt and all Permitted Refinancing  Indebtedness incurred to Refinance any such Indebtedness; provided that, in the  case of Indebtedness incurred in accordance with Section 6.01(2), the applicable  Liens are subject to the Closing Date Intercreditor Agreement or other Intercreditor  Agreement(s) substantially consistent with and no less favorable to the Lenders in  any material respect than the Closing Date Intercreditor Agreement as determined  in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower;  (2) Liens securing Indebtedness existing on the Closing Date; provided that such Liens  only secure the obligations that they secure on the Closing Date (and any Permitted  Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of such obligations permitted by Section 6.01)  and do not apply to any other property or assets of the Borrower or any Restricted  Subsidiary other than replacements, additions, accessions and improvements  thereto and products thereof and customary security deposits; provided further, that  individual financings of equipment or other assets provided by a lender may be  cross collateralized to other financings of equipment or other assets financed by  such lender;  (3) Liens securing Indebtedness incurred in accordance with Sections 6.01(4);  provided that such Liens only extend to the assets financed with such Indebtedness  (and any replacements, additions, accessions and improvements thereto and  products thereof and customary security deposits); provided further, that individual  financings of equipment or other assets provided by a lender may be cross  collateralized to other financings of equipment or other assets financed by such  lender;

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in  Section 8.01, in the event that the Borrower fails (or, but for the operation of this Section 8.02,  would fail) to comply with the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant, until the  expiration of the tenth Business Day subsequent to the date the Required Financial Statements are  required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(1) or (2) for the applicable fiscal quarter, the  Borrower shall have the right to issue Permitted Cure Securities for cash (provided that, if such  Permitted Cure Securities are not in the form of common equity, the terms of such Permitted Cure  Securities must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) or otherwise receive cash  contributions to the capital of the Borrower, and, in each case, to contribute any such cash to the  capital of the Borrower (collectively, the “Cure Right”) and, upon the receipt by the Borrower of  such cash (the “Cure Amount”) pursuant to the exercise by the Borrower of such Cure Right, the  Financial Performance Covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to a pro forma adjustment by  which Consolidated EBITDA shall be increased with respect to such applicable fiscal quarter and  any Test Period that contains such quarter, solely for the purpose of measuring the Financial  Performance Covenant and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal  to the Cure Amount.  The resulting increase to Consolidated EBITDA from the application of a  Cure Amount shall not result in any adjustment to Consolidated EBITDA or any other financial  definition for any purpose under this Agreement other than for purposes of calculating the  Financial Performance Covenant and there shall be no pro forma or other reduction in  Indebtedness from the application of a Cure Amount for purposes of calculating the Financial  Performance Covenant unless such Cure Amount is actually applied to prepay Indebtedness.  In  each four fiscal quarter period there shall be at least two fiscal quarters in which the Cure Right is  not exercised and the Cure Right may not be exercised more than five times during the term of this  Agreement and, for purposes of this Section 8.02, the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the  amount required for purposes of complying with the Financial Performance Covenant.  If, after  giving effect to the adjustments in this Section 8.02, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with  the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant, the Borrower shall be deemed to have  satisfied the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant as of the relevant date of  determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such  date, and the applicable breach of the Financial Performance Covenant and any related default that  had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the  foregoing, after the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Financial Performance Covenant,  the Borrower shall not be able to request the making of any Loan or the issuance or renewal of any  Letter of Credit until receipt by the Borrower of the Cure Amount.  ARTICLE IX    THE AGENTS  Section 9.01 Appointment.  (1) Each Lender (in its capacities as a Lender and on behalf of itself and its Affiliates  as potential counterparties to Hedge Agreements) and each Issuing Bank and  Swingline Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the entity named as  Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its permitted successors  and assigns to serve as administrative agent under this Agreement and the other  Loan Documents, as applicable, including as the Collateral Agent for such Lender  

 

  198  AmericasActive:17030364.10  and the other applicable Secured Parties under the applicable Security Documents,  and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such  capacities, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement  and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties  as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other  Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental  thereto.  In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other  than the United States, each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline  Lenders hereby grants to the Administrative Agent any required powers of attorney  to execute and enforce any Security Document governed by the laws of such  jurisdiction on such Lender’s, Issuing Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s behalf.   Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline  Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform  its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative  Agent is a party, to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative  Agent may have under such Loan Documents.  (2) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the  Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those  expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no  implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall  be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against  the Administrative Agent; additionally, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each  Swingline Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative  Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in  connection with this Agreement and transactions contemplated hereby.  To the  extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from  any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding  Tax.  If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts  a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts  paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not  delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the  Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption  from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such  Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid,  directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including  any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses,  allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.  For the avoidance of  doubt, the Borrower shall not have liability for the actions of the Administrative  Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.  (3) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,  reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding  relative to any Loan Party, (a) the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether  the principal of any Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed  or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent  shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by  

 

  199  AmericasActive:17030364.10  intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (i) to file and prove a claim for the  whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of any or  all of the Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents  as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the  Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Agents and any Subagents allowed  in such judicial proceeding and (ii) to collect and receive any monies or other  property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and  (b) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other  similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender,  Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender to make such payments to the Administrative  Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such  payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lenders to  pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation,  expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents  and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under the Loan  Documents.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the  Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any  Lender, Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement,  adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender,  Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote  in respect of the claim of any Lender, Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender in any  such proceeding.  Section 9.02 Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may execute any of its  duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including for purposes of holding or  enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) by or through agents, employees or  attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts  concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible  for the negligence or misconduct of the agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable  care.  The Administrative Agent may also from time to time, when the Administrative Agent deems  it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral co-agents,  collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Subagent”) with respect to all or any part of the  Collateral; provided that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to  any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Administrative  Agent.  Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower or any other Loan Party be reasonably  required by any Subagent so appointed by the Administrative Agent to more fully or certainly vest  in and confirm to such Subagent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower shall, or  shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments  promptly upon reasonable written request by the Administrative Agent.  If any Subagent, or  successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers,  privileges and duties of such Subagent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in  and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Subagent.  The  Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent,  attorney-in-fact or Subagent that it selects in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this  Section 9.02 in the absence of the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  

 

  200  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Section 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions.  None of the Administrative Agent, its Affiliates  or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact shall be  (1) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in  connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the  foregoing are found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to  have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or  (2) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or  warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other  Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided  for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan  Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of  this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its  obligations hereunder or thereunder.  The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender  to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained  in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties,  books or records of any Loan Party.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or  obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.  Without  limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any  fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred  and is continuing, and (b) the Administrative Agent shall not, except as expressly set forth herein  and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure  to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated  to or obtained by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  The  Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into:  (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection  with this Agreement or any other Loan Document;  (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered  hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith;  (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements  or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the  occurrence of any Default or Event of Default;  (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this  Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement,  instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any  Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents;  (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral; or  (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere  herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to  be delivered to the Administrative Agent.  

 

  201  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Section 9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be  entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request,  certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic  message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or conversation believed in  good faith by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the  proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or  by telephone and believed in good faith by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall  not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition  hereunder to any Credit Event, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender,  Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition  is satisfactory to such Lender, Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent  shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender, Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank  prior to such Borrowing.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including  counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not  be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel,  accountants or experts.  The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as  the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer  thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be  fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan  Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if  so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be  indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be  incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  The Administrative Agent  shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement  and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so  specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure  to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.  Section 9.05 Notice of Default.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have  knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative  Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement,  describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”   In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall  give notice thereof to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect  to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if  so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders); provided that unless and until the  Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall  not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such  Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.  Section 9.06 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders.  Each Lender expressly  acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees,  agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no  act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party  or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by  the Administrative Agent to any Lender.  Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has,  independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based  

 

  202  AmericasActive:17030364.10  on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and  investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and  creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and made its own decision to make its  Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also represents that it will,  independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based  on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its  own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement  and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform  itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness  of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly  required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative  Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other  information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise),  prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party that may come  into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,  attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.  Section 9.07 Indemnification.  The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent, Swingline  Lender and each Issuing Bank, in each case in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed  by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), in the amount of its  pro rata share (based on its aggregate Revolving Facility Credit Exposure and, in the case of the  indemnification of each Agent, unused Commitments hereunder; provided that the aggregate  principal amount of L/C Disbursements owing to any Issuing Bank shall be considered to be owed  to the Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Facility Credit  Exposure) (determined at the time such indemnity is sought), from and against any and all  liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or  disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment  of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, Swingline  Lender or such Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this  Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to  herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted  by the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank under or in connection with  any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of  such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses  or disbursements that are found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent  jurisdiction to have resulted from the Administrative Agent’s, Swingline Lender’s or such Issuing  Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The failure of any Lender to reimburse the  Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, promptly upon  demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to the Administrative  Agent, Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as provided herein shall not  relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse the Administrative Agent,  Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for its ratable share of such amount,  but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse the  Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such other  Lender’s ratable share of such amount.  The agreements in this Section 9.07 shall survive the  payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.  

 

  203  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Section 9.08 Agent in Its Individual Capacity.  Each Agent and its Affiliates may make  loans to, accept deposits from, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party  as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent.  With respect to its Loans  made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued, or Letter of Credit  participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and  the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the  Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its  individual capacity.  Section 9.09 Successor Agent.  The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative  Agent upon thirty days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Any such resignation by the  Administrative Agent hereunder shall also constitute its resignation as Swingline Lender and an  Issuing Bank, in which case the resigning Administrative Agent (x) shall not be required to issue  any further Letters of Credit hereunder and (y) shall maintain all of its rights as Issuing Bank with  respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it prior to the date of such resignation.  If the  Administrative Agent resigns as the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other  Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor  agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless a Specified Event of Default shall have  occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be  unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights,  powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the reference to the resigning Administrative  Agent means such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former  Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other  or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this  Agreement or any holders of the Loans.  If no successor shall have been so appointed by the  Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring  Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may,  on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an  office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. If no successor agent has accepted  appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring  Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation will  nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Required Lenders will thereafter perform all the  duties of such Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document until such time,  if any, as the Required Lenders, Swingline Lender and the Issuing Banks appoint a successor  Administrative Agent which shall (unless a Specified Event of Default shall have occurred and be  continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably  withheld or delayed).  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative  Agent, the provisions of this Section 9.09 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted  to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan  Documents.  Section 9.10 Arrangers; Co-Syndication Agents; Documentation Agent.  None of the  Arrangers, Co-Syndication Agents or Documentation Agent will have any duties, responsibilities  or liabilities hereunder in their respective capacities as such.  Section 9.11 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.  

 

  204  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (1) Each of the Lenders (including in its capacity as a potential Qualified Counterparty  or Cash Management Bank) and the other Secured Parties irrevocably appoints and  authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to be the agent for  and representative of the Lenders with respect to the Collateral Agreement, the  Collateral and the Security Documents, together with such powers and discretion  as are reasonably incidental thereto; provided that neither the Administrative Agent  nor the Collateral Agent shall owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care,  duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of any Cash  Management Obligations or Specified Hedge Obligations.  (2) Each Agent, each Lender and each other Secured Party agrees that:  (a) Liens on any property granted to or held by an Agent in favor of any Secured  Party under any Loan Document will be automatically released,  (i) upon Payment in Full and the termination of the Commitments;  (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is Disposed (or to be  Disposed) as part of, or in connection with, any transfer permitted  under the Loan Documents to any Person that is not (and is not  required to be) a Loan Party,  (iii) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon  release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Collateral  Agreement pursuant to clause (c) below;  (iv) subject to Section 10.08, if the release of such Lien is approved,  authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; or  (v) upon such property becoming an Excluded Asset or Excluded  Equity Interest.  (b) it will release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by  the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document  to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section  6.02(3);  (c) if any Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Subsidiary in a transaction  permitted hereunder, is not a Material Subsidiary or as a result of a  transaction permitted hereunder becomes an Excluded Subsidiary (in each  case, as certified in writing by a Responsible Officer), and the Borrower  notifies the Administrative Agent in writing that it wishes such Guarantor  to be released from its obligations under the Collateral Agreement and, upon  request of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable,  provides the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent certifications  that such Subsidiary Loan Party is not a Material Subsidiary or has become  an Excluded Subsidiary (as applicable), it will release (or evidence the  release) of (i) such Subsidiary Loan Party from its obligations under the

Each Agent agrees that it will take such action and execute any such documents as may be  reasonably requested by the Borrower in connection with any of the foregoing releases or any such  subordination.  Each of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely  exclusively on an officers certificate of the Borrower confirming that such release or subordination  (as applicable) is permitted hereunder.  Each Lender and each Secured Party irrevocably authorizes  each Administrative Agent to take such action and execute any such document and consents to  such reliance. No Agent will be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any  representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the  existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or contained in any  certificate prepared or delivered by the Borrower or any Loan Party in connection with the  Collateral or compliance with the terms set forth above or in a Loan Document, nor shall any Agent  be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the  Collateral.  Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm  in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular  types or items of property, or to release any Loan Party from its obligations under, the Loan  Documents.

  212  AmericasActive:17030364.10  Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the  case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such  payment, prepayment or repayment; and  (b) such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other  recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in  all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify  the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or  repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so  notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.14(2).  (3) Each Lender, Issuing Bank and Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative  Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such  Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise  payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, Issuing Bank  or Secured Party from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative  Agent under immediately preceding paragraph (a) or under the indemnification  provisions of this Agreement.  (4) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the  Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative  Agent in accordance with immediately preceding paragraph (a), from any Lender  or Issuing Bank that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof)  (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or  portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous  Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such  Lender or Issuing Bank at any time, (i) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be  deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Class  with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment  Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency  (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment  of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the  “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid  interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such  instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver  an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement  incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to a Platform  as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect  to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Issuing  Bank shall deliver any promissory notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or  the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender  shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii)  upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender  shall become a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to  such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or  assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable,  hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment,  

 

  213  AmericasActive:17030364.10  excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification  provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive  as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank, and (iv) the Administrative  Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the  Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment.  The Administrative Agent may, in its  discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency  Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment  Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall be reduced  by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the  Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such  Lender or Issuing Bank (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its  respective behalf).  For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency  Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or Issuing Bank and such  Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this  Agreement.  In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the  Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an  Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the  Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall  be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender,  Issuing Bank or Secured Party under the Loan Documents with respect to each  Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation  Rights”).  (5) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay,  discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other  Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and  solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of  funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan  Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.  (6) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any  right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive,  any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to  any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of  any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any  defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.  Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 9.14 shall survive the  resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or  obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the  Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any  portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

  217  AmericasActive:17030364.10  assignment of all or any portion of Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of  a Lender or an Approved Fund; and  (b) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:  (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a  Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire  remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or  Loans, the amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning  Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date  the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is  delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than  $2,500,000, unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative  Agent otherwise consent; provided that (1) no such consent of the  Borrower shall be required if a Specified Event of Default with  respect to the Borrower has occurred and is continuing and (2) such  amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its  Affiliates or Approved Funds (with simultaneous assignments to or  by two or more Approved Funds being treated as one assignment for  purposes of meeting the minimum assignment amount requirement),  if any;  (ii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the  Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an  electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent  (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually),  and, shall pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and  recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in  the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent);  (iii) the Assignee, if it shall not already be a Lender, shall deliver to the  Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and any tax  forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.17;  (iv) the Assignee will not be the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s  Affiliates or Subsidiaries; and  (v) the Assignor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Note  issued to it with respect to the assigned Loan.  (c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (2)(e) of  this Section 10.04, from and after the effective date specified in each  Assignment and Acceptance the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto  and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and  Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this  Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the  interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its  

 

  218  AmericasActive:17030364.10  obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and  Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations  under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall  continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.05  with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date  of such Assignment and Acceptance).  Any assignment or transfer by a  Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply  with this Section 10.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a  sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in  accordance with paragraph (4) of this Section 10.04 to the extent such  participation would be permitted by such Section 10.04(4).  (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as the Administrative  Agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each  Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation  of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and  principal amount (and stated interest with respect thereto) of the Loans and  Revolving L/C Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof  from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be  conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative  Agent, Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat  each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms  hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,  notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for  inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender (but solely,  in the case of a Lender, entries with respect to such Lender’s Loans) at any  reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  This  clause (d) and Section 2.09 shall be construed so that all Refinancing Term  Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning  of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related  Treasury regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the  Code or of such Treasury regulations).  (e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed  by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed  Administrative Questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a  Lender hereunder), all applicable tax forms, any Note outstanding with  respect to the assigned Loan (or other documentation (including an affidavit  of loss and indemnitee agreement) reasonably acceptable to the Borrower  in lieu thereof), the processing and recordation fee referred to in  paragraph (2)(b)(ii) of this Section 10.04 and any written consent to such  assignment required by paragraph (2) of this Section 10.04, the  Administrative Agent promptly shall accept such Assignment and  Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register.   No assignment, whether or not evidenced by a promissory note, shall be  effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the  Register as provided in this paragraph (2)(e).  

 

  219  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (3) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender  thereunder and the Assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree  with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:  (a) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and Beneficial Owner of  the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and  that its Revolving Facility Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its  Revolving Loans, in each case, without giving effect to assignments thereof  which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and  Acceptance;  (b) except as set forth in clause (a) above, such assigning Lender makes no  representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any  statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this  Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,  sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any  other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial  condition of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or the performance  or observance by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any of its  obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other  instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto;  (c) the Assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter  into such Assignment and Acceptance;  (d) the Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement,  together with copies of the most recent Required Financial Statements  delivered pursuant to Section 5.04, and such other documents and  information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis  and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance;  (e) the Assignee will independently and without reliance upon the  Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender or any  other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem  appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking  or not taking action under this Agreement;  (f) the Assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such  action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this  Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this  Agreement, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto;  and  (g) the Assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all  the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be  performed by it as a Lender.  

 

  220  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (4) (a) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or, subject  to Section 10.04(8), the Borrower, sell participations to one or more banks or other  entities (other than any Disqualified Institution) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion  of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a  portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that  (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain  unchanged;  (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties  hereto for the performance of such obligations; and  (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender, the  Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and  directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights  and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation  shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce  this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any  amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this  Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (A) such  agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the  consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or  waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected  thereby pursuant to Section 10.04(1)(a) or clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv),  (v) or (vi) of the first proviso to Section 10.08(2) and (2) directly  affects such Participant and (B) no other agreement with respect to  amendment, modification or waiver may exist between such Lender  and such Participant.  Subject to clause (4)(b) of this Section 10.04,  the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the  benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (in each case subject to the  requirements thereof and the delivery of any documentation  required thereunder) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and  had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (2) of  this Section 10.04.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant  also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.06 as though it  were a Lender; provided that such Participant shall be subject to  Section 2.18(5) as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells  a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary  agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the  name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and  stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other  obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”);  provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or  any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any  Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in  

 

  221  AmericasActive:17030364.10  any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations  under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that  such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment,  loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under  Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The  entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent  manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name  is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such  participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any  notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the  Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall  have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.  Each  Lender shall indemnify the Loan Parties for any Taxes (including  any additions to Tax) attributable to or resulting from such Lender’s  failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 10.04(4)(a)  relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register.  (b) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under  Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been  entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant,  except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results  from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the  applicable participation.  A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits  of Section 2.17 to the extent such Participant fails to comply with  Section 2.17(5) as though it were a Lender.  (5) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion  of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including  any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other  central bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall  release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such  pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.  (6) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to  issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type  described in paragraph (5) of this Section 10.04; provided that such Lender will  have delivered for exchange any Notes previously issued with respect to the  applicable Loans (or other documentation (including an affidavit of loss and  indemnitee agreement) reasonably acceptable to the Borrower in lieu thereof).  (7) If the Borrower wishes to replace the Loans or Commitments with ones having  different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative  Agent and, where relevant, each Swingline Lender and Issuing Bank, and subject  to at least three Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders, instead of repaying  the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require  the Lenders to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or  its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 10.08  

 

  222  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (with such replacement, if applicable, being deemed to have been made pursuant to  Section 10.08(5)).  Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments  to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders in the same  manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such  Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrower),  accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts  owing pursuant to Section 10.05(2); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the  Administrative Agent shall not be required to purchase such Loans and  Commitments to be replaced unless it has agreed to purchase such Loans and  Commitments in its sole discretion.  By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders  shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans or Commitments  pursuant to the terms of the form of Assignment and Acceptance attached hereto as  Exhibit A, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in  connection therewith.  The provisions of this paragraph (7) are intended to facilitate  the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the  Collateral during any such replacement.  (8) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment may be made or participation sold  to a Disqualified Institution without the prior written consent of the Borrower;  provided that, in connection with a participation, the Lenders shall have received a  list of the Disqualified Institutions prior to the execution of such participation right.  To the extent that any assignment is purported to be made or participation is  purported to be sold to a Disqualified Institution (notwithstanding this clause (8) or  otherwise), such Disqualified Institution shall be required immediately (and in any  event within five (5) Business Days) to assign all Loans and Commitments then  owned by such Disqualified Institution to another Lender (other than a Defaulting  Lender) or another Assignee in accordance with this Section 10.04 or unwind such  participation, as applicable (and the Borrower shall be entitled to seek specific  performance in any applicable court of law or equity to enforce this sentence).  Section 10.05 Expenses; Indemnity.  (1) If the Transactions are consummated and the Closing Date occurs, the Borrower  agrees to pay all reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses  incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers in connection with the  preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or by the  Administrative Agent, the Arrangers (and, in the case of enforcement of this  Agreement, each Lender) in connection with the preparation, execution and  delivery, amendment, modification, waiver or enforcement of this Agreement and  the other Loan Documents (including expenses incurred in connection with due  diligence and initial and ongoing Collateral examination to the extent incurred with  the reasonable prior approval of the Borrower or provided for in this Agreement or  the other Loan Documents) or in connection with the administration of this  Agreement or the other Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or  waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof, including the reasonable, documented  and invoiced fees and out-of-pocket charges and disbursements of a single counsel  for the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers, one firm of local counsel in each

  224  AmericasActive:17030364.10  10.05(2) or (B) claims arising out of any act or omission on the part of the Borrower or its  Restricted Subsidiaries.  (3) Subject to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the  Borrower agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee  harmless from, any and all losses claims, damages, liabilities and related out-of- pocket expenses, including reasonable, documented and invoiced fees and out-of- pocket charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel for all Indemnitees, taken  as a whole, and, if necessary, one firm of counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction  (which may include a single special counsel in multiple jurisdictions) for all  Indemnitees taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of  interest where the applicable Indemnitees affected by such conflict informs the  Borrower of such conflict, an additional counsel for each group of affected  Indemnitees similarly situated, taken as a whole) and reasonable, documented and  invoiced consultant fees, in each case, incurred by or asserted against any  Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result any claim  related in any way to Environmental Laws and the Borrower or any of the  Restricted Subsidiaries, or any actual or alleged presence, Release or threatened  Release of Hazardous Materials at, under, on or from any property for which the  Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiaries would reasonably be expected to be held  liable under Environmental Laws; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any  Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities  or related expenses are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court  of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or  willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties.  (4) Any indemnification or payments required by the Loan Parties under this  Section 10.05 shall not apply with respect to (a) Taxes other than (x) any Taxes that  represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim and (y)  expenses related to the enforcement of Section 2.17 or (b) Taxes that are duplicative  of any indemnification or payments required by the Loan Parties under Section 2.15  or 2.17.  (5) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no  Indemnitee or Loan Party  shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee or Loan  Party, as applicable, nor will any Indemnitee, Loan Party or any of their respective  Affiliates be liable, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or  punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in  connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any  agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated  hereby or thereby, any Commitment, any Letter of Credit, any Loan or the use of  the proceeds thereof.

  225  AmericasActive:17030364.10  relieve any Loan Party of any obligation it may otherwise have hereunder to  indemnify an Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive  damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party.  (6) The agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the resignation of the  Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the  Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other  Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.  All amounts due under this  Section 10.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor accompanied by  reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or  other amount requested.

The rights of each  Refinancing Term Lender under this Section 10.06(2) are in addition to other rights  and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Refinancing Term Lender  may have, but may be exercised only at the direction of the Administrative Agent  

 

  226  AmericasActive:17030364.10  or the Required Term Lenders and only after the Discharge of ABL Revolving  Claims.  Section 10.07 Applicable Law.

The parties shall endeavor in  good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid  provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or  unenforceable provisions.

(1) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself  and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for  the Southern District of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan (or if such  court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the Supreme Court of the State of New York  sitting in the Borough of Manhattan) and any appellate court from any thereof  (collectively, “New York Courts”), in any action or proceeding arising out of or  relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions relating  hereto or thereto, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of  the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in  respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such  Federal (to the extent permitted by law) or New York State court.

Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan  Document shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any  action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents  in the courts of any jurisdiction, except that each of the Loan Parties agrees that it  will not bring any such action or proceeding in any court other than New York  Courts (it being acknowledged and agreed by the parties hereto that any other forum  would be inconvenient and inappropriate in view of the fact that more of the  Lenders who would be affected by any such action or proceeding have contacts  with the State of New York than any other jurisdiction).  (2) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the  fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now  or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out  of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York  State or federal court.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the

  234  AmericasActive:17030364.10  promptly thereof prior to disclosure or, if not practicable prior to disclosure  and not prohibited by law, promptly after disclosure;  (c) to its parent companies, Affiliates or auditors (so long as each such Person  shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with  this Section 10.16 and, to the extent within its control, such Lender or Agent  will be responsible for any such Person’s non-compliance with this Section  10.16);  (d) in order to enforce its rights under any Loan Document in a legal  proceeding;  (e) to any pledgee or assignee under Section 10.04(5) or any other prospective  assignee of, or prospective Participant in, any of its rights under this  Agreement (so long as such Person shall have been instructed to keep the  same confidential in accordance with this Section 10.16);  (f) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in Hedge Agreements or  such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such  contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual  counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.16);  and  (g) with the prior written consent of the Borrower; and  (h) to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any  disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the  confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Loan Parties  received by it from such Person.

The Borrower hereby  agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower  Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that:  (a) all the Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked  “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, means that the word “PUBLIC” shall  appear prominently on the first page thereof;  

 

  235  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (b) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed  to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing  Bank and the Lenders to treat the Borrower Materials as either publicly  available information or not material information (although it may be  sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrower or its securities for  purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws;  (c) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made  available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor;”  and  (d) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers shall be entitled to treat the  Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only  for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.”  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be under no obligation to provide any  Borrower Materials suitable for distribution to any Public Lenders or to mark any Borrower  Materials “PUBLIC.”  Section 10.18 [Reserved].

Section 10.20 Intercreditor Agreements.  (1) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any provision of any Loan  Document to the contrary notwithstanding, prior to the discharge in full of all Term  Loan Claims, the Loan Parties shall not be required to act or refrain from acting  under any Loan Document with respect to the Term Priority Collateral in any  manner that would result in a “Default” or “Event of Default” (as defined in any  Term Loan Document) under the terms and provisions of the Term Loan  Documents.  (2) Each Secured Party:  (a) consents to the subordination of Liens on Term Priority Collateral provided  for in the Closing Date Intercreditor Agreement,  (b) agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the  provisions of the Closing Date Intercreditor Agreement; and  

 

  236  AmericasActive:17030364.10  (c) authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Closing  Date Intercreditor Agreement as ABL Agent (as defined in the Intercreditor  Agreement) and on behalf of such Lender.  The foregoing provisions are  intended as an inducement to the lenders under the Term Loan Credit  Agreement to extend credit and such lenders are intended third party  beneficiaries of such provisions and the provisions of the Closing Date  Intercreditor Agreement.  (3) Each Secured Party:  (a) authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into any Junior  Lien Intercreditor Agreement in the form attached hereto or in such other  form as may be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and agrees that it  will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any  Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement;  (b) agrees that the Administrative Agent may from time to time enter into a  modification of the Closing Date Intercreditor Agreement or any Junior  Lien Intercreditor Agreement, as the case may be, so long as the  Administrative Agent reasonably determines that such modification is  consistent with the terms of this Agreement and agrees that it will be bound  by and will take no actions contrary to any such Intercreditor Agreement (as  so modified); and  (c) pursuant to the express terms of the Intercreditor Agreements, in the event  of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Intercreditor  Agreements and this Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor  Agreements shall govern and control.

Section 10.22 Private-Side Information Contacts.  Each Public Lender agrees to cause  at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the  “Private Investor” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order  to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance  procedures and applicable Law, including United States federal and state securities Laws, to make  reference to information that is not made available through the “Public Investor” portion of the  Platform and that may contain MNPI with respect to the Borrower, any of its Affiliates, their  respective Subsidiaries or their respective securities for purposes of United States federal or state  securities laws.

The FILO Intercreditor Provisions are  hereby incorporated by reference in this Agreement and apply to each Refinancing Term Lender,  and to all Refinancing Term Loans at any time incurred or outstanding hereunder, as fully as if set  forth herein in their entirety.  Each Refinancing Term Lender, by extending Refinancing Term  Loans or acquiring same by assignment, agrees to be bound by the FILO Intercreditor Provisions.  Section 10.25 Acknowledgement Regarding any Supported QFCs.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except for termination or  release of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms of Section 7.15  the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable  law, will not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by, and each Guarantor  hereby waives any defense to the enforcement hereof by reason of:  (a) the failure of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any claim or  demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any  Loan Document or otherwise;  (b) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of  the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including  with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement;  (c) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the Collateral  held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the  Secured Obligations;  (d) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Secured  Obligations;  (e) any illegality, lack of validity or enforceability of any Secured Obligation;  (f) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Loan Party, or  any insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Loan Party;  

 

10  AmericasActive:16964714.2 (g) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that the Guarantors may have at  any time against the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, any other Secured Party or any  other person, whether in connection herewith, the other Loan Documents or any  unrelated transactions; provided that nothing herein will prevent the assertion of  any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;  (h) any action permitted or authorized hereunder; or  (i) any other circumstance (including any statute of limitations) or any act or omission  that may in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise  operate as a defense to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Borrower or any  Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety (other than the Payment in Full or  performance of the Secured Obligations).  (2) Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Secured Parties to take and hold security for the  payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any  or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and  direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release,  substitute or add any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the  Secured Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder.  (3) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and except for termination or release of a  Guarantor’s obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms of Section 7.15 hereof,  each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any other  Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof from any  cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Loan Party, other than,  after all Commitments have been terminated, the return of all Letters of Credit (or cash  collateralization thereof on terms satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank), the Payment  in Full or performance of all the Secured Obligations.  The Collateral Agent and the other  Secured Parties may exercise any right or remedy available to them against any other Loan  Party pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without affecting or  impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent that after  giving effect thereto there shall have been Payment in Full in respect of all Secured  Obligations. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any  defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to  applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or  other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any other Loan Party, as the case may be,  or any security.  Section 2.04. Reinstatement.  Each Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder will  continue to be effective or be reinstated if, at any time, payment, or any part thereof, of any Secured  Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured  Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise.  Section 2.05. Agreement To Pay; Contribution; Subrogation.    

 

11  AmericasActive:16964714.2 (1) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Collateral  Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue  hereof, upon the failure of any Loan Party to pay any Secured Obligation when and as the  same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of  prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will pay, or cause to be  paid, to the Collateral Agent for distribution to the applicable Secured Parties in cash the  amount of such unpaid Secured Obligation.    (2) Subject to the foregoing clause (1), to the extent that any Guarantor, under this Agreement  or the Credit Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repays any of the Secured  Obligations constituting Loans or other advances made to or reimbursement obligations  owed by another Loan Party under the Credit Agreement (an “Accommodation Payment”),  then the Guarantor making such Accommodation Payment will be entitled to contribution  and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Guarantors in an amount  equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is  such other Guarantor’s Allocable Amount and the denominator of which is the sum of the  Allocable Amounts of all of the Guarantors; provided that such rights of contribution and  indemnification will be subordinated to the Payment in Full of the Secured Obligations.   As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Guarantor will be equal  to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted  against such Guarantor hereunder and under the Credit Agreement without:   (a) rendering such Guarantor “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of  the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent  Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act  (“UFCA”);   (b) leaving such Guarantor with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the  meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, Section 4 of  the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA;   (c) leaving such Guarantor unable to pay its debts as they become due within the  meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or Section 4  of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA; or  (d) otherwise rendering such Guarantor’s obligation under Section 2 of this Agreement  void or voidable under any federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency,  receivership or similar law.  Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Collateral Agent as provided above, all rights  of such Guarantor against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Guarantor arising as a  result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise  will in all respects be subject to Article VI.    Section 2.06. Information.  Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and  keeping itself informed of the financial condition and assets of the Borrower and each other Loan  Party, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Secured  

 

12  AmericasActive:16964714.2 Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs  hereunder, and agrees that no Agent nor any other Secured Party will have any duty to advise such  Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.  Section 2.07. Maximum Liability.  Each Guarantor and, by its acceptance of this  guarantee, each Agent and each other Secured Party hereby confirms that it is the intention of all  such persons that this guarantee and the Secured Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not  constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any  other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law, the Uniform  Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal  or state law to the extent applicable to this guarantee and the Secured Obligations of each  Guarantor hereunder.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Secured Parties and the Guarantors  hereby irrevocably agree that the Secured Obligations of the Guarantors under this guarantee at  any time are limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Secured Obligations of such  Guarantor under this guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.  ARTICLE III    PLEDGE OF SECURITIES  Section 3.01. Pledge.  As security for the payment or performance, as the case may be, in  full of its Secured Obligations, each Grantor hereby pledges to the Collateral Agent, its successors  and permitted assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby grants to the  Collateral Agent, its successors and permitted assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties,  a security interest in all of such Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under:   (1) the Equity Interests (a) directly owned by such Grantor as of the Closing Date (including   those Equity Interests listed on Schedule I) and (b) obtained by such Grantor after the  Closing Date and, in each case, the certificates representing all such Equity Interests, in  each case, other than any Excluded Assets (the Equity Interests described in the foregoing  clauses (a) and (b), collectively, but excluding any Excluded Assets, the “Pledged Stock”);   (2) the promissory notes and any instruments evidencing Indebtedness (a) owned by such  Grantor as of the Closing Date (including those promissory notes and any instruments  evidencing Indebtedness listed on Schedule I) and (b) issued to such Grantor after the  Closing Date and having an aggregate principal amount in excess of $15 million, in each  case, other than any Excluded Assets (the instruments described in the foregoing clauses  (a) and (b), collectively, but excluding any Excluded Assets, the “Pledged Debt  Securities”);   in each case, including all interest, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received,  receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all Pledged Debt  Securities (except to the extent constituting an Excluded Asset or otherwise excluded from the  Collateral pursuant to this Agreement);     (3) subject to Section 3.05 hereof, all payments of principal or interest, dividends, cash,  instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Security  Document, no representation, warranty, covenant or any other provision in this Agreement or any  other Security Document will apply to and none of the Pledged Stock, Pledged Debt Securities or  Pledged Collateral will include nor will the security interests granted hereunder attach to any  Excluded Asset.  TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Pledged Collateral, together with all right, title,  interest, powers, privileges and preferences pertaining or incidental thereto (in each case other than  any Excluded Assets), unto the Collateral Agent, its successors and permitted assigns, for the  ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, forever, subject, however, to the terms, covenants and  conditions hereinafter set forth and in each case subject to the Credit Agreement.  Section 3.02. Delivery of the Pledged Collateral.    (1) Subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s), each Grantor agrees, within the time  periods required hereunder or under the Credit Agreement (as applicable) (or at such later  date as any Agent may agree, in its sole discretion) to deliver or cause to be delivered to  the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, any and all Pledged  Securities to the extent such Pledged Securities, in the case of promissory notes or other  instruments, are required to be delivered pursuant to paragraph (2) of this Section 3.02.  (2) Subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s), each Grantor will use its  commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Indebtedness for borrowed money that would  otherwise constitute Pledge Collateral if in the form of a promissory note and having an  aggregate principal amount in excess of $15 million owed to such Grantor by any Person  to be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note that is pledged and delivered (within  60 days (or such longer period as any Agent may agree, in its sole discretion) at the time  of delivery of the next Required Financial Statements after receipt thereof), to the  Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to the terms hereof;  provided that the foregoing requirement will not apply to (a) instruments, notes and debt  securities that are promptly deposited into an investment or securities account or (b) checks  received in the ordinary course of business.  To the extent any such promissory note is a  demand note, each Grantor party thereto agrees, if requested in writing by the Collateral  Agent, to immediately demand payment thereunder upon an Event of Default unless such  demand would not be commercially reasonable or would otherwise expose such Grantor  to liability to the maker.  

 

14  AmericasActive:16964714.2 (3) Upon delivery to the Collateral Agent, (a) any Pledged Securities required to be delivered  pursuant to the foregoing paragraphs (1) and (2) of this Section 3.02 will be accompanied  by stock powers or note powers, as applicable, duly executed in blank or other instruments  of transfer reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and (b) all other property  composing part of the Pledged Collateral delivered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement  will be accompanied, to the extent necessary to perfect the security interest in or allow  realization on the Pledged Collateral, by proper instruments of assignment duly executed  by the applicable Grantor as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request. Each delivery  of Pledged Securities will be accompanied by a schedule describing the securities, which  schedule will be attached hereto as Schedule I (or a supplement to Schedule I, as applicable)  and made a part hereof; provided that failure to attach any such schedule hereto will not  affect the validity of such pledge of such Pledged Securities.  Each schedule so delivered  will supplement any prior schedules so delivered.  (4) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document,  no Grantor will be required to take any action under the laws of any jurisdiction other than  the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions  for the purpose of creating, perfecting or making enforceable the Security Interest in any  Pledged Collateral of such Grantor and no security agreements or pledge agreements  governed under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction will be required.

Each Grantor  further acknowledges and agrees that with respect to any interest in any limited liability  company or limited partnership Controlled on or after the Closing Date by such Grantor  

 

16  AmericasActive:16964714.2 and pledged hereunder that is not a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC,  such Grantor shall at no time elect to treat any such interest as a “security” within the  meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, nor shall such interest be represented by a certificate,  unless such election and such interest is thereafter represented by a certificate that, subject  to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s), within 60 days after such election (or at such  later date as the Administrative Agent may agree), is delivered to the Collateral Agent  pursuant to the terms hereof; and  (9) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, to the extent any  provision of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement excludes any assets from the scope  of the Pledged Collateral, or from any requirement to take any action to perfect or maintain  any security interest (or the priority thereof) in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Pledged  Collateral, the representations, warranties and covenants made by any Grantor in this  Agreement with respect to the creation, perfection or priority (as applicable) of the security  interest granted in favor of the Collateral Agent (including Section 3.02) shall be deemed  not to apply to such excluded assets.  Section 3.04. Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations.  To the extent required to  be delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral  Agent (or a designated bailee, in accordance with the applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s)), on  behalf of the Secured Parties, has the right (in its sole and absolute discretion), subject to the  applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s), to hold the Pledged Securities in the name of the applicable  Grantor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent (or a designated bailee,  in accordance with the applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s)) or, if an Event of Default shall have  occurred and is continuing, in its own name as pledgee or the name of its nominee (as pledgee or  as sub-agent).

17  AmericasActive:16964714.2 (b) the Collateral Agent will promptly execute and deliver to each Grantor, or cause to  be executed and delivered to such Grantor, all such proxies, powers of attorney and  other instruments as such Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of  enabling such Grantor to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers  it is entitled to exercise pursuant to subparagraph (a) above; and  (c) each Grantor will be entitled to receive and retain any and all dividends, interest,  principal and other distributions paid on or distributed in respect of the Pledged  Collateral to the extent and only to the extent that such dividends, interest, principal  and other distributions are permitted by, and otherwise paid or distributed in  accordance with, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and applicable  laws; provided that (i) any noncash dividends, interest, principal or other  distributions, payments or other consideration in respect thereof, including any  rights to receive the same to the extent not so distributed or paid, that would  constitute Pledged Securities, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination or  reclassification of the outstanding Equity Interests of the issuer of any Pledged  Securities, received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof, or in  redemption thereof, as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition or other  exchange of assets to which such issuer may be a party or otherwise and (ii) any  noncash dividends and other distributions paid or payable in respect of any Pledged  Securities that would constitute Pledged Securities in connection with a partial or  total liquidation or dissolution or in connection with a reduction of capital, capital  surplus or paid in surplus, in each case that does not constitute an Excluded Asset,  will be and become part of the Pledged Collateral, and, if received by any Grantor  will be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of  the Secured Parties, and (if applicable) will be promptly (and in any event within  60 days (or such longer period as the Term Loan Collateral Agent may agree, in its  sole discretion)) delivered to the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the  Secured Parties, in the same form as so received (endorsed in a manner reasonably  satisfactory to the Collateral Agent).  (2) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and after prior written notice by the  Collateral Agent to the Borrower of the Collateral Agent’s intention to exercise its rights  hereunder, all rights of any Grantor to dividends, interest, principal or other distributions  that such Grantor is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (1)(c) of this Section 3.05  will cease, and all such rights will thereupon become vested, for the ratable benefit of the  Secured Parties, in the Collateral Agent (or a designated bailee, in accordance with the  applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s)), which will have the sole and exclusive right and  authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal or other distributions;  provided, however, that even if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any  Grantor may continue to receive dividends and distributions solely to the extent permitted  under subclause (8)(a), subclause (8)(b), subclause (8)(c), subclause (8)(d) and subclause  (8)(e) of Section 6.07 of the Credit Agreement.

(5) After all such Events of Default have been cured or waived, each Grantor will have (i) the  right to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers that such Grantor would  otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to the terms of paragraph (1)(a) above and (ii)  the right to receive and retain the distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be  entitled to receive and retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph 1(c) above.

(4) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document,  no Grantor shall be required to take any action under the laws of any jurisdiction other than  the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions  for the purpose of perfecting the Security Interest in any Article 9 Collateral of such  Grantor.  (5) The Security Interest is granted as security only and shall not subject the Collateral Agent  or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of  any Grantor with respect to or arising out of the Article 9 Collateral.  (6) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, no Grantor will be  required:   (a) to take, or cause to be taken, any actions to perfect the Security Interest by any  means other than (to the extent reasonably applicable):   (i) filings pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code in the office of  the Secretary of State (or equivalent central filing office) in the jurisdiction of  organization of such Grantor;   (ii) filings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the  United States Copyright Office of an Intellectual Property Security Agreement;

(7) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, to the extent any  provision of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement excludes any assets from the scope  of the Article 9 Collateral, or from any requirement to take any action to perfect or maintain  any security interest (or the priority thereof) in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Article  9 Collateral, the representations, warranties and covenants made by any Grantor in this  Agreement with respect to the creation, perfection or priority (as applicable) of the security  interest granted in favor of the Collateral Agent (including Section 4.01) shall be deemed  not to apply to such excluded assets.  Section 4.02. Representations and Warranties.  Each Grantor represents and warrants (but  solely to the extent (and at the times) required by the Credit Agreement) to the Collateral Agent  and the Secured Parties that:  (1) Each Grantor has good and valid rights in and title to the Article 9 Collateral with respect  to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder and has full power and  authority to grant to the Collateral Agent the Security Interest in such Article 9 Collateral  pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the  terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any other Person other than  any consent or approval that has been obtained and is in full force and effect or has  otherwise been disclosed herein or in the Credit Agreement.  

 

22  AmericasActive:16964714.2 (2) The Uniform Commercial Code financing statements containing a description of the  Article 9 Collateral that have been prepared by the Collateral Agent for filing in the office  specified in Schedule III constitute all the filings, recordings and registrations (except as  set forth in the following clause (3)) that are, as of the Closing Date, necessary to publish  notice of, protect the validity of and to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest  in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties) in respect of  all Article 9 Collateral in which the Security Interest may be perfected by filing of Uniform  Commercial Code financing statements in the office of the Secretary of State (or equivalent  central filing office) of the applicable jurisdiction.    (3) Each Grantor represents and warrants that a fully executed Intellectual Property Security  Agreement containing a description of all Article 9 Collateral existing on the Closing Date  and consisting of material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor with respect to  United States Patents (and Patents for which United States applications are pending),  United States registered Trademarks (and Trademarks for which United States registration  applications are pending) and United States registered Copyrights (and Copyrights for  which United States registration applications are pending) was delivered on the Closing  Date to the Collateral Agent for recording with the United States Patent and Trademark  Office and the United States Copyright Office pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 261, 15 U.S.C. §  1060 or 17 U.S.C. § 205 and the regulations thereunder, as applicable.  (4) The Security Interest constitutes (a) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article 9  Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations; (b) subject  to the filings described in Section 4.02(2), a perfected security interest in all Article 9  Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering  a financing statement or analogous document in the United States (or any political  subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the Uniform  Commercial Code in the central filing office of such jurisdictions; and (c) subject to the  filings described in Section 4.02(3), a security interest that shall be perfected in all  Intellectual Property in which a security interest may be perfected upon the receipt and  recording of an Intellectual Property Security Agreement with the United States Patent and  Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, as applicable.  Subject to Section  4.01(6), the Security Interest is and shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9  Collateral, subject to Permitted Liens.  (5) The Article 9 Collateral is owned by the Grantors free and clear of any Lien, other than  Permitted Liens.  None of the Grantors has filed or consented to the filing after the Closing  Date of (a) any financing statement or analogous document under the Uniform Commercial  Code or any other applicable laws covering any Article 9 Collateral; (b) any assignment in  which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar  instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with the United States Patent and Trademark  Office or the United States Copyright Office; or (c) any assignment in which any Grantor  assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering  any Article 9 Collateral with any foreign governmental, municipal or other office, which  financing statement or analogous document, assignment, security agreement or similar  instrument is still in effect, except, in each case, for Permitted Liens or in connection with  any permitted disposition thereof in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.  

 

23  AmericasActive:16964714.2 (6) None of the Grantors holds any Commercial Tort Claim individually in excess of $15  million as of the Closing Date except as indicated on Schedule IV.  (7) As to itself and its Article 9 Collateral consisting of material Intellectual Property owned  by each Grantor with respect to the United States (the “Intellectual Property Collateral”),  to each Grantor’s knowledge, as of the Closing Date:  (a) The Intellectual Property Collateral set forth on Schedule II includes all of the  material Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights owned by such Grantor as of the date  hereof;  (b) The Intellectual Property Collateral owned by such Grantors has not been adjudged  invalid or unenforceable in whole or part (except for office actions issued in the  ordinary course by the United States Patent and Trademark Office or in any similar  office in any foreign jurisdiction), and is valid and enforceable, except as would not  reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Grantor is not  aware of any uses of any item of Intellectual Property Collateral that would be  expected to lead to such item becoming invalid or unenforceable, except as would  not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;  (c) Such Grantor has made or performed in the ordinary course of Grantor’s business,  acts, including filings, recordings and payment of all required fees and taxes,  required to maintain and protect its interest in each and every item of Intellectual  Property Collateral owned by such Grantor in full force and effect in the United  States, and such Grantor has used proper statutory notice in connection with its use  of each Patent, Trademark and Copyright owned by such Grantor in the Intellectual  Property Collateral, in each case, except to the extent that the failure to do so would  not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;  (d) With respect to each IP Agreement, the absence, termination, cancellation, breach  or violation of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse  Effect: (A) such Grantor has not received any notice of termination or cancellation  under such IP Agreement; (B) such Grantor has not received any notice of a breach  or default under such IP Agreement, which breach or default has not been cured or  waived; and (C) neither such Grantor nor, to the knowledge of Grantor, any other  party to such IP Agreement is in breach or default thereof in any material respect,  and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute  such a breach or default or permit termination, modification or acceleration under  such IP Agreement.  (e) Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no  Grantor or Intellectual Property Collateral owned by such Grantor is subject to any  outstanding consent, settlement, decree, order, injunction, judgment or ruling  restricting the use of any Intellectual Property Collateral owned by such Grantor or  that would impair the validity or enforceability of such Intellectual Property  Collateral owned by such Grantor.  

 

24  AmericasActive:16964714.2 Section 4.03. Covenants.    (1) Each Grantor agrees to comply with Section 5.10(3) of the Credit Agreement, subject, for  the avoidance of doubt, to Section 5.10(4) of the Credit Agreement.  (2) Subject to the rights of such Grantor under the Loan Documents to dispose of Collateral  and except as would otherwise be permitted by the Credit Agreement, each Grantor will,  at its own expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to defend title to the Article 9  Collateral against all persons and to defend the Security Interest of the Collateral Agent,  for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority  thereof against any Lien that is not a Permitted Lien.  (3) Each Grantor agrees, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be  duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the  Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request to preserve, protect and perfect  the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of  any fees and taxes required in connection with the execution and delivery of this  Agreement and the granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing  statements  or other documents in connection herewith or therewith.    (4) [Reserved].  (5) After an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and in consultation with the  Borrower, the Collateral Agent will have the right to verify under reasonable procedures  the validity, amount, quality, quantity, value, condition and status of, or any other matter  relating to, the Article 9 Collateral, including, in the case of Accounts or Article 9 Collateral  in the possession of any third person, by contacting Account Debtors or the third person  possessing such Article 9 Collateral for the purpose of making such a verification.  The  Collateral Agent shall have the right to share any information it gains from such inspection  or verification with any Secured Party.  (6) None of the Grantors will, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent (such  consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), grant any extension of  the time of payment of any Accounts included in the Article 9 Collateral, compromise,  compound or settle the same for less than the full amount thereof, release, wholly or partly,  any person liable for the payment thereof or allow any credit or discount whatsoever  thereon, in each case, other than extensions, credits, discounts, compromises or settlements  granted or made in the ordinary course of business or consistent with prudent business  practices or as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement.  (7) At its option, after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent  may discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other  encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Article 9 Collateral and not a Permitted  Lien, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Article 9 Collateral, in each  case, to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement or this  Agreement, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent  on demand for any reasonable payment made or any reasonable expense incurred by the  

 

25  AmericasActive:16964714.2 Collateral Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization; provided, however, that nothing  in this Section 4.03(7) will excuse any Grantor from the performance of, or impose any  obligation on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants  or other promises of any Grantor with respect to taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens,  security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other  Loan Documents.  (8) Each Grantor (rather than the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party) will remain liable for  the observance and performance of all the conditions and obligations to be observed and  performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument relating to the Article 9  Collateral.  (9) Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all  officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent for such purpose) as such  Grantor’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact) for the purpose, after an Event of  Default has occurred for so long as it is continuing, of making, settling and adjusting claims  in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such  Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such  policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto.    (10) In the event that any Grantor at any time or times fails to obtain or maintain any of the  policies of insurance required hereby or under the Credit Agreement or to pay any premium  in whole or part relating thereto, the Collateral Agent may, after an Event of Default has  occurred for so long as it is continuing, without waiving or releasing any obligation or  liability of the Grantors hereunder or any Event of Default, in its sole discretion, obtain and  maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with  respect thereto as the Collateral Agent reasonably deems advisable.  All sums disbursed by  the Collateral Agent in connection with this Section 4.03(10), including reasonable  attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable,  upon demand, by the Grantors to the Collateral Agent, in accordance with Section 7.06,  and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby.  Section 4.04. Other Actions.  In order to further ensure the attachment, perfection and  priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, for the ratable benefit of the Secured  Parties, the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Article 9 Collateral, each Grantor agrees, in  each case at such Grantor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the  following Article 9 Collateral:  (1) Tangible Chattel Paper.  Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article III, if any  Grantor at any time holds or acquires any Tangible Chattel Paper evidencing an amount in  excess of $15 million, such Grantor will (within 60 days (or such longer period as any  Agent may agree, in its sole discretion) after receipt thereof) endorse, assign and deliver  the same to the Collateral Agent (or a designated bailee, in accordance with any applicable  Intercreditor Agreement(s)), accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment  duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request.  

 

26  AmericasActive:16964714.2 (2) Commercial Tort Claims.  If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial  Tort Claim in an amount reasonably estimated by the Borrower in good faith to exceed $15  million, such Grantor shall (within 60 days (or such longer period as any Agent may agree,  in its sole discretion) after determination thereof) notify the Collateral Agent thereof in a  writing signed by such Grantor, including a summary description of such claim, and grant  to the Collateral Agent in writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all  under the terms and provisions of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and  substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.  Section 4.05. Covenants Regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral.  Except  as permitted by the Credit Agreement or as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material  Adverse Effect:    (1) Each Grantor agrees that it will not knowingly do any act or omit to do any act (and will  exercise commercially reasonable efforts to contractually prohibit its licensees from doing  any act or omitting to do any act) whereby any material Patent owned by such Grantor that  is necessary to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business may become prematurely  invalidated, abandoned, lapsed or dedicated to the public, and agrees that it will take  commercially reasonable steps with respect to any material products covered by any such  Patent as necessary to establish and preserve its rights under applicable patent laws.  (2) Each Grantor will, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to contractually require  its licensees and its sublicensees to, for each material Trademark owned by such Grantor  and necessary to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business:    (a) maintain such Trademark in full force free from any adjudication of abandonment  or invalidity for non-use;   (b) maintain the quality of products and services offered under such Trademark;  (c) display such Trademark with notice of federal or foreign registration or claim of  trademark or service mark as required under applicable law; and   (d) not knowingly use or knowingly permit its licensees’ use of such Trademark in  violation of any third-party rights.  (3) Each Grantor will, and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its licensees  and its sublicensees to, for each work covered by a material Copyright owned by such  Grantor and necessary to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business and that it  publishes, displays and distributes, use a copyright notice as necessary and sufficient to  establish and preserve its rights under applicable copyright laws.  (4) Each Grantor shall notify the Collateral Agent promptly if it knows that any material  Patent, Trademark or Copyright owned by such Grantor and necessary to the normal  conduct of such Grantor’s business may imminently become abandoned, lapsed or  dedicated to the public, or of any materially adverse determination or development,  excluding office actions and similar determinations or developments in the United States  Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office, any court, or any similar  

 

27  AmericasActive:16964714.2 office of any country, regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any such material Patent,  Trademark or Copyright or its right to register or maintain the same.  (5) Each Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, will, upon  the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, execute and deliver any and all agreements,  instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to  evidence the Collateral Agent’s security interest in each Patent, Trademark, or Copyright  listed in each updated Perfection Certificate (or in any applicable specified information  contained in the Perfection Certificate) furnished pursuant to Section 5.04(6) of the Credit  Agreement.  (6) Each Grantor will exercise its reasonable business judgment consistent with the practice in  any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States  Copyright Office with respect to maintaining and pursuing each application owned by such  Grantor relating to any material Patent, Trademark and/or Copyright (and obtaining the  relevant grant or registration) necessary to the normal conduct of such Grantor’s business  and to maintain (a) each such Patent and (b) the registrations of each such Trademark and  each such Copyright, including, when applicable and necessary in such Grantor’s  reasonable business judgment, timely filings of applications for renewal, affidavits of use,  affidavits of incontestability and payment of maintenance fees, and, if any Grantor believes  necessary in its reasonable business judgment, to initiate opposition, interference and  cancellation proceedings against third parties.  (7) In the event that any Grantor knows or has reason to know that any Article 9 Collateral  consisting of a material Patent, Trademark or Copyright necessary to the normal conduct  of its business has been materially infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party,  such Grantor will promptly notify the Collateral Agent and will, if such Grantor deems it  necessary in its reasonable business judgment, promptly take actions as are reasonably  appropriate under the circumstances.   Section 4.06. Intercreditor Relations.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,  (1) the Grantors and the Collateral Agent acknowledge that the exercise of certain of the Collateral  Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Closing Date  Intercreditor Agreement and any other applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s) and (2) prior to the  Discharge of Term Loan Claims (or such other applicable date), any obligation hereunder to  physically deliver any Term Loan Priority Collateral (or other applicable Collateral) to the  Collateral Agent shall be deemed satisfied by the delivery to the Term Loan Collateral Agent or  other applicable Debt Representative, acting as gratuitous bailee for the Collateral Agent in  accordance with the Closing Date Intercreditor Agreement or other applicable Intercreditor  Agreement(s).  The failure of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to immediately  enforce any of its rights and remedies hereunder (as a result of the terms of any applicable  Intercreditor Agreement(s) or otherwise) shall not constitute a waiver of any such rights and  remedies.  In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of the Closing Date  Intercreditor Agreement or any other applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s) and this Agreement,  the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.  In the event of any such  conflict, each Grantor may act (or omit to act) in accordance with such Intercreditor Agreement  

 

28  AmericasActive:16964714.2 and shall not be in breach, violation or default of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan  Document by reason of doing so.  ARTICLE V    REMEDIES  Section 5.01. Remedies Upon Default.  If an Event of Default has occurred and is  continuing, each Grantor agrees to deliver each item of Collateral to the Collateral Agent (or a  designated bailee, in accordance with any applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s)) on demand, and  it is agreed that the Collateral Agent shall have the right, subject to applicable law and any  applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s), to take any of or all the following actions at the same or  different times: (1) with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, on  demand, to cause the Security Interest to become an assignment, transfer and conveyance of any  of or all such Article 9 Collateral by the applicable Grantors to the Collateral Agent or to license  or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or a non- exclusive basis, any such Article 9 Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions  and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall determine (other than in violation of any then- existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers thereunder cannot be obtained with the  use of commercially reasonable efforts, which each Grantor hereby agrees to use) and (2) to take  possession of the Article 9 Collateral and without liability for trespass to the applicable Grantor to  enter any premises where the Article 9 Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking  possession of, removing or selling the Article 9 Collateral and, generally, to exercise any and all  rights afforded to a secured party under the applicable Uniform Commercial Code or other  applicable law.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing rights and remedies, each Grantor  agrees that the Collateral Agent shall have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of  applicable law (including the Uniform Commercial Code), to sell or otherwise dispose of all or  any part of the Collateral at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities  exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Collateral Agent shall deem  appropriate.  The Collateral Agent shall be authorized in connection with any sale of a security (if  it deems it advisable to do so) pursuant to the foregoing to restrict the prospective bidders or  purchasers to persons who represent and agree that they are purchasing such security for their own  account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof.  Upon  consummation of any such sale of Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.01, the Collateral Agent  shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the  Collateral so sold.  Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely,  free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives and  releases (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay, valuation and appraisal that  such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now  existing or hereafter enacted.  The Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Grantors ten Business Days’ written  notice (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the  UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Collateral Agent’s intention to make any sale  of Collateral.  Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale  and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or  exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof,  

 

29  AmericasActive:16964714.2 will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange.  Any such public sale shall be held at such  time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Collateral Agent  may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale.  The Collateral, or the portion thereof, to be  sold at any such sale may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels in the Collateral  Agent’s own right or by one or more agents and contractors, upon any premises owned, leased, or  occupied by any Grantor and the Collateral Agent and any such agent or contractor, in conjunction  with any such sale, may augment the Inventory to be sold with other goods (all of which other  goods shall remain the sole property of the Collateral Agent or such agent or contractor), all as the  Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine.  The Collateral Agent shall  not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of  the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given.  The Collateral Agent may,  without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned  from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without  further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned.  In the case of  any sale of all or any part of the Collateral made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so  sold may be retained by the Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or  purchasers thereof, but the Collateral Agent shall not incur any liability in the event that any such  purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of  any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon notice given in accordance with  provisions above.  At any public (or, to the extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant  to this Section 5.01, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by  law) from any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all such  rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any  part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then  due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and  such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such  property in accordance with Section 5.02 hereof without further accountability to any Grantor  therefor.  For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof  shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Collateral Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant  to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion  thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Collateral Agent shall have entered  into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Secured Obligations  paid in full.  As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the  Collateral Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and  to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts  having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver.  Any sale  pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially  reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the UCC or its equivalent in other  jurisdictions.  Without limiting any other rights of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, for  the purpose of enabling Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Article V at such  time as Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise, after an Event of Default has  occurred and is continuing, such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Grantor  hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent licensable, and to the extent not resulting in a  material breach, material violation or termination of any Trademark License, a royalty free, non- exclusive, irrevocable license (such license to be effective after an Event of Default has occurred  

 

30  AmericasActive:16964714.2 and while it is continuing), to use, apply, and affix any Trademark in which any Grantor now or  hereafter has rights, solely in connection with the Collateral Agent’s enforcement of rights or  remedies hereunder, including in connection with any sale or other disposition of Inventory,  provided that such use is consistent with the use of such Trademark employed by the Grantor in  the ordinary conduct of such Grantor’s business and Grantor shall have rights of quality control  and inspection that are reasonably necessary to maintain the validity and enforceability of such  Trademarks.  As to each Grantor, the license granted hereby shall remain in full force and effect  until such Grantor hereunder is released hereunder in accordance with Section 7.15 of this  Agreement.  Any exercise of remedies by the Collateral Agent shall be subject to the applicable  Intercreditor Agreement(s).  Section 5.02. Application of Proceeds.    (1) Subject to the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement(s), the Collateral Agent will  promptly apply the proceeds, moneys or balances of any collection or sale of Collateral, as  well as any Collateral consisting of cash, in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement.  (2) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary,  the Collateral Agent will not be required to marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the  Secured Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such Guarantee in any particular  order.  Section 5.03. Securities Act, Etc.  In view of the position of the Grantors in relation to the  Pledged Collateral, or because of other current or future circumstances, a question may arise under  the Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar federal statute hereafter  enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time  in effect being called the “Federal Securities Laws”) with respect to any disposition of the Pledged  Collateral permitted hereunder.  Each Grantor understands that compliance with the Federal  Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Collateral Agent if the  Collateral Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, and might  also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent transferee of any Pledged  Collateral could dispose of the same.  Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations  affecting the Collateral Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged Collateral  under applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or  effect.  Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that in light of such restrictions and limitations, the  Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may (1) proceed to make such a sale whether  or not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Collateral or part thereof  shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws or, to the extent applicable, Blue Sky or  other state securities laws and (2) approach and negotiate with a single potential purchaser to effect  such sale.  Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and  other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such restrictions.   In the event of any such sale, the Collateral Agent will incur no responsibility or liability for selling  all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price that the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute  discretion, may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the  possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were deferred until  

 

31  AmericasActive:16964714.2 after registration as aforesaid or if more than a single purchaser were approached.  The provisions  of this Section 5.03 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon  which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at which the Collateral  Agent sells.  For avoidance of doubt, no Grantor shall be required hereunder or under any other  Loan Document to take or cause the issuer of any Pledged Collateral take any action to register  any Pledged Collateral for public sale under the Federal Securities Laws or Blue Sky or other state  securities laws.  ARTICLE VI    INDEMNITY, SUBROGATION AND SUBORDINATION  Section 6.01. Indemnity.  In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as  the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 6.03 hereof), the Borrower  agrees that (a) in the event a payment is made by any Guarantor under this Agreement in respect  of any Secured Obligation of the Borrower, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor for the  full amount of such payment and such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the person to  whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment and (b) in the event any  assets of any Guarantor are sold pursuant to this Agreement or any other Security Document to  satisfy in whole or in part a Secured Obligation of the Borrower, the Borrower will indemnify such  Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of the book value or the fair market value of the assets  so sold.  Section 6.02. Contribution and Subrogation.  Subject to Section 2.07, each Guarantor (a  “Contributing Guarantor”) agrees (subject to Section 6.03 hereof) that, in the event a payment  shall be made by any other Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Secured Obligation or assets of  any other Guarantor are sold pursuant to any Security Document to satisfy any Secured Obligation  owed to any Secured Party and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have  been fully indemnified by the Borrower as provided in Section 6.01 hereof, the Contributing  Guarantor shall indemnify the Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such  payment or the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets, as applicable, in  each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of such  Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof and the denominator will be the aggregate net worth of  all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto  pursuant to Section 7.16 hereof, the date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by such  Guarantor).   Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant  to this Section 6.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Guarantor under Section  6.01 hereof to the extent of such payment.  Section 6.03. Subordination.    (1) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the  Guarantors under Sections 6.01 and 6.02 hereof and all other rights of indemnity,  contribution or subrogation of the Guarantors under applicable law or otherwise will be  fully subordinated to the Payment in Full of the Secured Obligations until such time as this  Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Section 7.15(1) or, with respect to any  such Guarantor, until such Guarantor is released in accordance with Section 7.15(2).  No  

 

32  AmericasActive:16964714.2 failure on the part of the Borrower or any Guarantor to make the payments required by  Sections 6.01 and 6.02 hereof (or any other payments required under applicable law or  otherwise) will in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower with  respect to the Secured Obligations or any Guarantor with respect to its obligations  hereunder.  (2) The Borrower and each Guarantor hereby agree that all Indebtedness owed by it to the  Borrower, any other Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary (collectively, the  “Subordinated Creditors”) will be fully subordinated to the prior Payment in Full of the  Secured Obligations; provided, however, that each of the following shall be permitted:  payments permitted under the Credit Agreement, including payments of regularly  scheduled principal and interest (including default interest and any “AHYDO” catch-up  payment) on such Indebtedness, fees related to such Indebtedness, indemnity and expense  reimbursement payments in connection with such Indebtedness, and mandatory  prepayments, mandatory redemptions and mandatory purchases of any such Indebtedness  (including any principal, premium or interest with respect thereto), in each case pursuant  to the terms of such Indebtedness. A Subordinated Creditor will automatically be released  from its obligations hereunder upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the  Credit Agreement as a result of which the Subordinated Creditor ceases to be a Restricted  Subsidiary of the Borrower.  ARTICLE VII    MISCELLANEOUS  Section 7.01. Notices.  All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as  otherwise permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit  Agreement.  All communications and notices hereunder to any Grantor will be given to it in care  of the Borrower, with such notice to be given as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.  Section 7.02. Security Interest Absolute.  All rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, the  Security Interest in the Article 9 Collateral, the security interest in the Pledged Collateral and all  obligations of each Grantor hereunder will be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:  (1) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document,  any agreement with respect to any of the Secured Obligations or any other agreement or  instrument relating to any of the foregoing;   (2) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any  of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any  departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement  or instrument;  (3) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or  amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee, securing or  guaranteeing all or any of the Secured Obligations; or   

 

33  AmericasActive:16964714.2 (4) subject only to termination or release of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder in accordance  with the terms of Section 7.15 hereof any other circumstance that might otherwise  constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Secured  Obligations or this Agreement (other than a defense of payment or performance).  Section 7.03. Limitation By Law.  All obligations, rights, remedies and powers provided  in this Agreement may be exercised or performed only to the extent that the exercise or  performance thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this  Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be  controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement  invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under  the provisions of any applicable law.  Section 7.04. Binding Effect; Several Agreement.  This Agreement will become effective  as to any party to this Agreement when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such party is  delivered to the Collateral Agent and a counterpart hereof is executed on behalf of the Collateral  Agent, and thereafter will be binding upon such party and the Collateral Agent and their respective  permitted successors and assigns, and will inure to the benefit of such party, the Collateral Agent  and the other Secured Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns, except that no  party shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest  herein or in the Collateral (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly  permitted under the Credit Agreement.  This Agreement will be construed as a separate agreement  with respect to each Loan Party and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released  with respect to any Loan Party without the approval of any other Loan Party and without affecting  the obligations of any other Loan Party hereunder.  Section 7.05. Successors and Assigns.  Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties  hereto is referred to, such reference will be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns  of such party, and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Grantor or the  Collateral Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their  respective permitted successors and assigns; provided that no Grantor may assign, transfer or  delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of  the Collateral Agent or as expressly permitted under the Credit Agreement.  The Collateral Agent  hereunder will at all times be the same person that is the Collateral Agent under the Credit  Agreement.  Written notice of resignation by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Credit  Agreement will also constitute notice of resignation as the Collateral Agent under this Agreement.   Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement  by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent will thereupon succeed  to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral  Agent pursuant hereto.  Section 7.06. Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.   The parties hereto  agree that the Collateral Agent will be entitled to reimbursement of its expenses incurred hereunder  as provided in Section 10.05 of the Credit Agreement and the provisions of Section 10.05 shall be  incorporated by reference herein and apply to each Grantor mutatis mutandis.   

 

34  AmericasActive:16964714.2 Section 7.07. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact.  Each Grantor hereby  appoints the Collateral Agent the attorney-in-fact of such Grantor for the purpose of carrying out  the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that the  Collateral Agent may deem necessary to accomplish the purposes hereof, effective after an Event  of Default has occurred and while it is continuing and with written notice to the Borrower of its  exercise or intent to exercise such rights, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an  interest.  The Collateral Agent will have the right, after an Event of Default has occurred and while  it is continuing and with written notice to the Borrower of its exercise or intent to exercise such  rights, with full power of substitution either in the Collateral Agent’s name or in the name of such  Grantor, to:   (1) receive, endorse, assign or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money  orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof;  (2) demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of  all or any of the Collateral;   (3) ask for, demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all moneys due  or to become due under and by virtue of any Collateral;   (4) sign the name of any Grantor on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any of the  Collateral;   (5) send verifications of Accounts to any Account Debtor;  (6) commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any  court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral  or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral;  (7) settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating  to all or any of the Collateral;  (8) notify, or to require any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to  the Collateral Agent; and   (9) use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal  with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out  the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent  were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes;   provided that nothing herein contained will be construed as requiring or obligating the Collateral  Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any  payment received by the Collateral Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any  action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due in  respect thereof or any property covered thereby.  The Collateral Agent and the other Secured  Parties will be accountable only for amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the  powers granted to them herein, and neither they nor their officers, directors, employees or agents  

 

35  AmericasActive:16964714.2 shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own  gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.  Section 7.08. APPLICABLE LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM,  CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR  TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS  AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY WILL BE  CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE  OF NEW YORK (EXCEPT FOR CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD  RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION).  Section 7.09. Waivers; Amendment.    (1) No failure or delay by the Collateral Agent or any Lender or Issuing Bank in exercising  any right, power or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document will operate as  a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy,  or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy,  preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or  remedy.  The rights, powers and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders and  Issuing Banks hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not  exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies that they would otherwise have.  No waiver of  any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom  will in any event be effective unless the same is permitted by paragraph (2) of this Section  7.09, and then such waiver or consent will be effective only in the specific instance and for  the purpose for which given.  (2) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified  except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Collateral  Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties with respect to which such waiver, amendment  or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section  10.08 of the Credit Agreement.  Section 7.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY  WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT  IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR  INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS  AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY HERETO (1) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE,  AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR  OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF  LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (2)  ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN  INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE  MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.10.  Section 7.11. Severability.  In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in  this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and  

 

36  AmericasActive:16964714.2 enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein will not in any way be affected or  impaired thereby.  Section 7.12. Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more  counterparts, each of which will constitute an original but all of which when taken together will  constitute but one contract, and will become effective as provided in Section 7.04 hereof.  Delivery  of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission will be  as effective as delivery of a manually signed original.  Section 7.13. Headings.  Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used  herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect  the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.  Section 7.14. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.    (1) Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself  and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the  Southern District of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan (or if such court lacks  subject matter jurisdiction, the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the  Borough of Manhattan) and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or  proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions relating hereto  or thereto, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto  hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action  or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such Federal (to the extent permitted by  law) or New York State court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in  any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other  jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing in  this Agreement or in any other Loan Document will affect any right that the Administrative  Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring  any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Grantor, or its properties,  in the courts of any jurisdiction.  (2) Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest  extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter  have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to  this Agreement in any New York State or federal court.  Each of the parties hereto hereby  irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient  forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.  Section 7.15. Termination or Release.    (1) This Agreement, the guarantees made herein, the pledges made herein, the Security Interest  and all other security interests granted hereby shall automatically terminate and be released  when all the Secured Obligations have been Paid in Full, the Lenders have no further  commitment to lend under the Credit Agreement and all Letters of Credit have been  returned (or cash collateralized on terms satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank).  

 

37  AmericasActive:16964714.2 (2) (i) Any Grantor’s obligations hereunder and all Security Interest in and Lien on its  Collateral granted by such Grantor shall automatically terminate and be released if such  Grantor is released from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to Section 9.11(2)(c)  of the Credit Agreement and (ii) the Security Interest in and Lien on any Collateral shall  be automatically terminated and released in the circumstances set forth in Section  9.11(2)(a), 9.11(2)(b) or 9.11(2)(c) of the Credit Agreement, including, without limitation,  in connection with any property (and any related rights and any related assets) that is sold  or otherwise transferred to any Person that is not (and is not required to be) a Loan Party  in connection with a sale and leaseback or other transaction permitted by the Credit  Agreement.  (3) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (1) or paragraph (2)  above, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such  Grantor’s expense, all documents that such Grantor may reasonably request to evidence  such termination or release and take all other actions (including return of any pledged  collateral) reasonably requested by any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, in connection  with such release, including authorizing such Grantor or its representatives to file any UCC  amendment or termination statements with respect to such release. Any execution and  delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 7.15 shall be without recourse to or warranty  by the Collateral Agent.  (4) In the event that Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act is amended,  modified or interpreted by the SEC or any other relevant Governmental Authority to  require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation, or any other law, rule or regulation  is adopted, which would require) the filing with the SEC (or any other Governmental  Authority) of separate financial statements of any Subsidiary of the Borrower due to the  fact that the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary constitute Collateral or are pledged under  this Agreement, then the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary shall automatically be deemed  not to be part of the Collateral to the extent necessary not to be subject to such requirement.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Equity Interests of any  Subsidiary are not required to be Collateral or pledged under this Agreement solely because  Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act would require the filing of  separate financial statements of such Subsidiary if its Equity Interests were Collateral or  so pledged, in the event that Rule 3-10 or Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange  Act is amended, modified or interpreted by the SEC or any other relevant Governmental  Authority to no longer require (or is replaced with another rule or regulation that would not  require) the filing of separate financial statements of such Subsidiary if some or all of its  Equity Interests are Collateral or pledged under this Agreement, then such Equity Interests  of such Subsidiary, unless otherwise constituting an Excluded Asset, shall automatically  be deemed part of the Collateral and pledged under this Agreement.  Section 7.16. Additional Subsidiaries.  Upon execution and delivery by the Collateral  Agent and any Subsidiary that is required to become a party hereto under Section 5.10 of the Credit  Agreement or otherwise of a supplement in the form of Exhibit I hereto, such Subsidiary will  become a Grantor and a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named  as a Grantor and a Guarantor herein.  The execution and delivery of any such supplement will not  require the consent of any other party to this Agreement.  The rights and obligations of each party  

 

38  AmericasActive:16964714.2 to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new  party to this Agreement.  [Signature Page Follows]
