Agent that any Unrestricted Subsidiary shall no longer constitute an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such Unrestricted Subsidiary shall cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary to the extent no Default or Event of Default would result from such designation
or re-designation.

 SECTION 2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS 

2.1 Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans to the
Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment or (ii) the total Revolving
Exposures exceeding the lesser of (x) the sum of the total Revolving Commitments or (y) the Borrowing Base, subject to the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Protective Advances and Overadvances pursuant
to the terms of Section 2.4. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans. 

(b) For purposes of determining the Borrowing Base: (i) the Administrative Agent may, in its Permitted Discretion, establish
additional standards of eligibility and Reserves against eligibility, adjust Reserves and after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, reduce advance rates or reduce one or more of the sub-limits used,
(ii) in the event that an Account which was previously an Eligible Account ceases to be an Eligible Account, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof on and at the time of submission to the Administrative Agent of the next
Borrowing Base Certificate as required in Section 5.2(c); provided that if such Account is a material Account, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent promptly upon its knowledge of such cessation, and (iii) in the event
that Inventory which was previously Eligible Inventory ceases to be Eligible Inventory, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof on and at the time of submission to the Administrative Agent of the next Borrowing Base Certificate as
required in Section 5.2(c); provided that if such Inventory is material Inventory, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent promptly upon its knowledge of such cessation. 

2.2 Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of
Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class. Any Protective Advance, any Overadvance and any Swingline Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set
forth in Section 2.4 and 2.5. 
 (b) Subject to Section 2.14, each Revolving Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of
ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith, provided that all Borrowings made on the Closing Date must be made as ABR Borrowings but may be converted into Eurodollar Borrowings in accordance with
Section 2.8. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such
option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c)
At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000. ABR Revolving Borrowings may be in any amount.
Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of five Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding. 

(d) 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. 
 2.3
Requests for Revolving Borrowings. To request a Revolving Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request either in writing (delivered by hand or 

  
 34 

 
facsimile) in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower or by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, three
Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of an ABR Revolving Borrowing to
finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.6(e) may be given not later than 1:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall
be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall
specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.1: 
 (i) the aggregate amount of the
requested Borrowing and a breakdown of the separate wires comprising such Borrowing; 
 (ii) the date of such
Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a
Eurodollar Borrowing; and 
 (iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be
applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.” 
 If no election as to the
Type of Revolving Borrowing is specified, then the requested Revolving Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, then the Borrower shall 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, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such
Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. 
 2.4 Protective Advances. (a) Subject to the
limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make Loans to the Borrower, on
behalf of all Lenders, which the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount
of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses (including costs, fees,
and expenses as described in Section 9.5) and other sums payable under the Loan Documents (any of such Loans are herein referred to as “Protective Advances”); provided that, the aggregate amount of Protective Advances
and Overadvances outstanding at any time shall not exceed 10% of the aggregate Revolving Commitments of all the Lenders; provided further that, the aggregate Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments. Protective
Advances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 have not been satisfied. The Protective Advances shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute
Obligations hereunder. All Protective Advances shall be ABR Borrowings. The Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Supermajority Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent (together with
any Affiliate thereof) hold more than 33-1/3% of the Total Commitments in which case all Lenders (other than the Administrative Agent and any Affiliate thereof). Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon
the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. At any time that there is sufficient Availability and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 

  
 35 

 
4.2 have been satisfied, the Administrative Agent may request the Revolving Lenders to make a Revolving Loan to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time the Administrative Agent may require
the Lenders to fund their risk participations described in Section 2.4(b). 
 (b) Upon the making of a Protective Advance
by the Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default), each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Administrative Agent without
recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance in proportion to its Applicable Percentage. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance
purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect
of such Protective Advance. 
 2.5 Swingline Loans and Overadvances. (a) The Administrative Agent, the Swingline
Lender and the Revolving Lenders agree that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, promptly after the Borrower requests an ABR Borrowing, the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the
case may be, may elect to have the terms of this Section 2.5(a) apply to such Borrowing Request by advancing, on behalf of the Revolving Lenders and in the amount requested, same day funds to the Borrower on the applicable Borrowing date to the
Funding Account (each such Loan made solely by the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 2.5(a) is referred to in this Agreement as a “Swingline Loan”), with settlement among
them as to the Swingline Loans to take place on a periodic basis as set forth in Section 2.5(c). Each Swingline Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to other ABR Loans funded by the Revolving Lenders, except that all
payments thereon shall be payable to the Swingline Lender solely for its own account. In addition, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Swingline Lender to, and the Swingline Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein (but
without any further written notice required), not later than 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, on each Business Day, make available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the Funding Account, the proceeds of a Swingline Loan to the extent necessary to pay
items to be drawn on any Controlled Disbursement Account that day (as determined based on notice from the Administrative Agent). The aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed $15,000,000. The Swingline Lender shall
not make any Swingline Loan if the requested Swingline Loan exceeds Availability (before giving effect to such Swingline Loan). All Swingline Loans shall be ABR Borrowings. 

(b) Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, at the request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent may in its
sole discretion (but with absolutely no obligation), make Revolving Loans to the Borrower, on behalf of the Revolving Lenders, in amounts that exceed Availability (any such excess Revolving Loans are herein referred to collectively as
“Overadvances”); provided that, no Overadvance shall result in a Default due to Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 2.1 for so long as such Overadvance remains outstanding in accordance with the terms of this
paragraph, but solely with respect to the amount of such Overadvance. In addition, Overadvances may be made even if the condition precedent set forth in Section 4.2(c) has not been satisfied. All Overadvances shall constitute ABR Borrowings.
The authority of the Administrative Agent to make Overadvances is limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed $5,000,000 at any time, and, when combined with any outstanding Protective Advances, shall not exceed 10% of the aggregate Revolving
Commitments of all the Lenders, no Overadvance may remain outstanding for more than thirty days and no Overadvance shall cause any Revolving Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed its Revolving Commitment; provided that, the Supermajority
Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent (together with any Affiliate thereof) hold more than 33-1/3% of the Total Commitments in which case all Lenders (other than the Administrative Agent and any Affiliate thereof), may at any time revoke the
Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Overadvances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. 

  
 36 

 (c) Upon the making of a Swingline Loan or an Overadvance (whether before or after the
occurrence of a Default and regardless of whether a Settlement has been requested with respect to such Swingline Loan or Overadvance), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and
irrevocably purchased from the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swingline Loan or Overadvance in proportion to its Applicable Percentage
of the Revolving Commitment. The Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent may, at any time, require the Revolving Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Revolving Lender is required to fund its
participation in any Swingline Loan or Overadvance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of
Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Loan. 
 (d) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the
Swingline Lender, shall request settlement (a “Settlement”) with the Revolving Lenders on at least a weekly basis or on any date that the Administrative Agent elects, by notifying the Revolving Lenders of such requested Settlement
by facsimile, telephone, or e-mail no later than 1:00 p.m. Chicago time on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Revolving Lender (other than the Swingline Lender, in the case of the Swingline Loans)
shall transfer the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested to the Administrative Agent, to such account of the
Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, on such Settlement Date. Settlements may occur during the existence of a Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth
in Section 4.2 have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to the Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the Swingline Lender’s Swingline Loans and, together with Swingline Lender’s Applicable Percentage
of such Swingline Loan, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Revolving Lenders, respectively. If any such amount is not transferred to the Administrative Agent by any Revolving Lender on such Settlement Date, the Swingline Lender shall be
entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon as specified in Section 2.7. 

2.6 Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the
issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit,
the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
 (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain
Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for
doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (prior to 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice
requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such
Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be

  
 37 

 
necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s
standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed
to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $25,000,000 and (ii) the total Revolving Exposures shall not exceed the lesser of the total
Revolving Commitments and the Borrowing Base. 
 (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to
the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is
five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. 
 (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an
amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby
acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the
foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not
reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, 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 shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the
occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall
reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC
Disbursement prior to noon, Chicago time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 1:00 p.m., Chicago time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives
such notice, if such notice is received prior to noon, Chicago time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the
day of receipt; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.3 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an
equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due,
the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice,
each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.7 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.7 shall
apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by
the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the 

  
 38 

 
Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may
appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and
shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 
 (f) Obligations Absolute. The
Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and
all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that
does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility
by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission,
interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical
terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed
to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether
drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents
presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to
represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will
make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC
Disbursement. 
 (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower
shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower
reimburses such LC Disbursement, at 

  
 39 

 
the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section,
then Section 2.13(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of
this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 
 (i)
Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify
the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b).
From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and
(ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of
an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such
replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event
of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure
representing greater than 66-2/3% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for
the benefit of the Revolving Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 103% of the LC Exposure as of such date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such
cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in
clause (h) or (i) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control,
including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account and the Borrower hereby grants the Administrative Agent a security interest in the LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which
investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such
account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the
reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 66-2/3% of the total LC
Exposure), be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid)
shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all such Defaults have been cured or waived. 
 (k)
Existing Letters of Credit. Prior to the Closing Date, the Existing Issuing Bank has issued the Existing Letters of Credit which from and after the Closing Date shall constitute Letters of Credit hereunder. 

  
 40 

 2.7 Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it
hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders in an amount equal
to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage; provided that, Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.5. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received,
in like funds, to the Funding Account; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of (i) an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.6(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank and
(ii) a Protective Advance or an Overadvance shall be retained by the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) Unless the Administrative
Agent shall have 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 (a) of this Section 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 severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand 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 (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative
Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 
 2.8 Interest Elections.
(a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.
Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower
may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such
portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, Overadvances or Protective Advances, which may not be converted or continued. 

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the
time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.3 if the Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest
Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with
Section 2.2: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options
are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, 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 shall be specified for
each resulting Borrowing); 

  
 41 

 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest
Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR
Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the
Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 
 If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s
duration. 
 (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender
of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a
timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Revolving 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
shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so
long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing
at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 
 2.9 Termination of Commitments. (a) Unless previously
terminated, all Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. 
 (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate the Commitments
upon (i) the payment in full of all outstanding Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and on any Letters of Credit, (ii) the cancellation and return of all outstanding Letters of Credit (or alternatively, with respect to
each such Letter of Credit, the furnishing to the Administrative Agent of a cash deposit (or at the discretion of the Administrative Agent a back up standby letter of credit satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) equal to 105% of the LC Exposure
as of such date), (iii) the payment in full of the accrued and unpaid fees, and (iv) the payment in full of all reimbursable expenses and other Obligations together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. 

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this
Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the
contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the
effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination of the
Commitments shall be permanent. 

  
 42 

 2.10 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower
hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent the then unpaid amount of
each Protective Advance on the earlier of the Maturity Date and demand by the Administrative Agent and (iii) to the Administrative Agent the then unpaid principal amount of each Overadvance on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the 30th day after such Overadvance is made. 

(b) At any time that Availability plus Perfected Cash is less than $15,000,000 for a period of two consecutive Business Days or less than
$12,500,000 on any Business Day, on each Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall apply all funds credited to the Collection Account the previous Business Day (whether or not immediately available) first to prepay any Protective Advances
and Overadvances that may be outstanding and second to prepay the Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) and to cash collateralize outstanding LC Exposure. 
 (c) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender,
including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (d) The
Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and
payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be prima
facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (f) Any Lender may request that
Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its
registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.6) be represented by one
or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 

2.11 Prepayments. (a) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without
premium or penalty, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section 2.11; provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the
Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16. 
 (b) Except for Overadvances permitted under
Section 2.5, in the event and on such occasion that the total Revolving Exposure exceeds the lesser of (A) the aggregate Revolving Commitments or (B) the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans, LC Exposure
and/or Swingline Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. 

  
 43 

 (c) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Cash Proceeds are received by or on
behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Borrower shall, five Business Days after such Net Cash Proceeds are received by the Borrower or any Guarantor, prepay the Obligations as set forth in
Section 2.11(d) below in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, however, if on any date the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event
other than proceeds from Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof within five Business Days after receipt of such proceeds, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied at the end of
such five-Business Day period toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d). 
 (d) All such amounts
pursuant to Section 2.11(c) (as to any insurance or condemnation proceeds, to the extent they arise from casualties or losses to cash or Inventory) shall be applied, first to prepay any Protective Advances and Overadvances that may be
outstanding, pro rata, and second to prepay the Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) without a corresponding reduction in the Revolving Commitment and, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default,
to cash collateralize outstanding LC Exposure. If the precise amount of insurance or condemnation proceeds allocable to Inventory as compared to equipment, fixtures and real property is not otherwise determined, the allocation and application of
those proceeds shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion. Prepayments of any Eurodollar Loan in the case of any event described in clause (c) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event” on any
day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto shall be accompanied by any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16. 
 (e) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of any prepayment hereunder
(i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than
2:00 p.m., Chicago time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that,
if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.9, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance
with Section 2.9. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an
aggregate principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple thereof. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Revolving Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to
the extent required by Section 2.13. 
 2.12 Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the
date on which the Lenders’ Revolving Commitments terminate. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar month and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the
first such date to occur after the date hereof. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. 

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with
respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar 

  
 44 

 
Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including
the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which
shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the
later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of
Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of each calendar month shall be payable on the first Business Day of each calendar month following such last day, commencing
on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall
be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be
payable for the actual number of days elapsed. 
 (c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own
account, such other fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in
the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 

2.13 Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the
Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the
Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (c) Each Protective Advance
and each Overadvance shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans plus 2%. 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower
hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as
provided in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section. 
 (e) Accrued interest on each Loan (for ABR Loans, accrued
through the last day of the prior calendar month) shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this
Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or
prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the
effective date of such conversion. 

  
 45 

 (f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that
interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. The applicable Alternate Base Rate,
Eurodollar Rate or Eurodollar Base Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 2.14 Inability to Determine Interest Rate . If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and
reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or 
 (b) the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by
such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, 
 the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or
telephonic notice thereof and confirmed in writing to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders promptly thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR
Loans, (y) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the
then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar
Loans. 
 2.15 Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof: 

(i) shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letters of Credit or
any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.17 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender);

 (ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar
requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the
determination of the Eurodollar Rate; or 
 (iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition; 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount that such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting
into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand,
any 

  
 46 

 
additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this
paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 
 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender
or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the later of (i) the date hereof or (ii) the
date such Lender became a party hereto, shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a
level below that which such Lender or such corporation would have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount
deemed by such Lender to be material, upon at least 60 days’ prior written notice, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written request therefor setting forth in reasonable detail the amount
payable and the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.15(b) and including reasonable supporting documentation authenticating the claim, which written statement shall be made within 270 days of the
date such Lender became aware of such additional amount or amounts. The Borrower shall not be liable for any additional amount or amounts prior to such notice. The Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction. 
 (c) A written statement as to any additional amounts payable
pursuant to this Section and delivered pursuant to Section 2.15(b) submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Section, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim
compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower
pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 2.16 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any actual loss or out-of-pocket expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a
consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement,
(b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar
Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. A calculation as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This
covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

2.17 Taxes. (a) Subject to the other provisions of Section 2.17, all payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement
shall, except as required by law, be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes; provided, that, if any Non-Excluded Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the 

  
 47 

 
extent necessary to provide to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) an amounts equal to the sum the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have
received had no such withholding or deductions for Non-Excluded Taxes been made. With respect to any Other Taxes for which the Borrower fails to make a payment pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.17(a), the Lender or Administrative
Agent entitled to such amounts shall deliver to the Borrower (in the case of a Lender, with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written request therefor setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable and the basis for calculating the
additional amounts owed to such Lender or Administrative Agent under this Section 2.17(a) and including reasonable supporting documentation authenticating the claim (provided, however, the Lender or Administrative Agent shall not
be required to provide any documentation or make any disclosures that it considers to be confidential), which written statement shall be made within 180 days of the date such Lender or Administrative Agent became aware of such additional amount or
amounts. 
 (b) The Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 (c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the
Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower
fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. 

(d) Each Lender (or Transferee) that is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a
“Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two copies of either U.S. Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a
statement substantially in the form of Exhibit G and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S.
federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any
Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S.
Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower 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 U.S.
taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver. If any
Lender fails to provide the certifications described in this paragraph, such Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower and/or the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from any payment otherwise due to such Lender the
amount of any Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority to the extent required by law. 
 (e) A Lender that is entitled to an
exemption from or reduction of non-U.S. withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the
Borrower 

  
 48 

 
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed
by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s judgment such
completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender. 
 (f) If the
Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund or credit in lieu of a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which
the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over an amount equal to such refund or credit to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower
under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or any Lender that are attributable to the receipt of such refund
or credit, without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the
amount paid over to the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 

(g) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts
payable hereunder. 
 2.18 Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall
make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the
date when due, in immediately available funds, without 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. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 120 South LaSalle Street, Chicago, Illinois, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as
expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.5 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of
any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case
of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars. At all times that full cash dominion is in effect pursuant to Section 8.3 of the Guarantee
and Collateral Agreement, solely for purposes of determining the amount of Loans available for borrowing purposes, checks (in addition to immediately available funds applied pursuant to Section 2.10(b)) from collections of items of payment and
proceeds of any Collateral shall be applied in whole or in part against the Obligations, on the Business Day after receipt, subject to actual collection. 
 (b) Any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting either (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents
(which shall be applied as specified by the Borrower), (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11) or (C) amounts to be applied from the Collection Account when full cash dominion is in effect
(which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10(b)) 

  
 49 

 
or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, such funds shall be applied ratably first,
to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank from the Borrower (other than in connection with Specified Cash Management Services or Swap Obligations),
second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrower (other than in connection with Specified Cash Management Services or Swap Obligations), third, to pay interest due in respect of the
Overadvances and Protective Advances, fourth, to pay the principal of the Overadvances and Protective Advances, fifth, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans (other than Overadvances and the Protective Advances) ratably,
sixth, to prepay principal on the Loans (other than Overadvances and the Protective Advances) and unreimbursed LC Disbursements ratably, seventh, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent
(105%) of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate amount of any unpaid LC Disbursements, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, eighth, to payment of any amounts owing with
respect to Specified Cash Management Services and Swap Obligations, and ninth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower, or unless a Default is in existence, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Eurodollar Loan of a Class, except (a) on the
expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurodollar Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans of the same Class and, in any such event, the Borrower shall pay the break
funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.16. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the
Secured Obligations. 
 (c) At the election of the Administrative Agent, all payments of principal, interest, LC Disbursements,
fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including, without limitation, all reimbursement for fees and expenses pursuant to Section 9.5), and other sums payable under the Loan Documents, may be paid from the proceeds of Borrowings made hereunder
whether made following a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3 or a deemed request as provided in this Section or may be deducted from any deposit account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent. The Borrower hereby
irrevocably authorizes (i) the Administrative Agent to make a Borrowing for the purpose of paying each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due under the Loan Documents and agrees that all such
amounts charged shall constitute Loans (including Swingline Loans and Overadvances, but such a Borrowing may only constitute a Protective Advance if it is to reimburse costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 9.5) and that all such
Borrowings shall be deemed to have been requested pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.4 or 2.5, as applicable and (ii) the Administrative Agent to charge any deposit account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent for each payment of
principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due under the Loan Documents. 
 (d) If any Lender
shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater
proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face
value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal
of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such
participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the 

  
 50 

 
provisions of this paragraph shall 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 Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to
which the provisions of this paragraph shall 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. 

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the 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 Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be,
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 Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

(f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder, 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 hereunder until all such unsatisfied obligations
are fully paid. 
 2.19 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise
to the operation of Section 2.15 or 2.17(a) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans
affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no material
economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17(a).

 2.20 Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests
reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17(a), (b) defaults in its obligation to make Loans hereunder, with a replacement financial institution or (c) does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement,
modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby (so long as the consent of the Required Lenders has been
obtained); provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) prior to any such replacement,
such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.19 so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17(a), (iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all
Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (v) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender for actual losses and out-of-pocket expenses, if any, due under Section 2.16 if any
Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (vi) the replacement financial 

  
 51 

 
institution shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vii) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of
Section 9.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (viii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional
amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17(a), as the case may be, and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have
against the replaced Lender. 
 2.21 Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment
of all or any part of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set
aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement
shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have
been taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

2.22 Incremental Facility. The Borrower may at any time on not more than four occasions after the Closing Date but prior to the
Maturity Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), without having to seek consent from the Lenders, request an increase to the existing Revolving
Commitments (such increase, the “Incremental Revolving Commitments,” and the loans thereunder, the “Incremental Revolving Loans”); provided that both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness
of any Incremental Revolving Commitment referred to below, no Default or Event of Default shall exist and at the time that any Incremental Revolving Loan is made (and immediately after giving effect thereto) no Default or Event of Default shall
exist. The aggregate amount of all Incremental Revolving Commitments shall not exceed $50,000,000. Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount of the Incremental Revolving Commitments. Incremental
Revolving Commitments may be provided by any existing Lender or by any other bank or other financial institution (such existing Lender or other bank or other financial institution providing an Incremental Revolving Commitment, an “Additional
Lender”), provided that such Additional Lender shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such Additional
Lender’s providing such Incremental Revolving Commitment, if such consent would be required under Section 9.6 for an assignment of Commitments to such Additional Lender. Incremental Revolving Commitments shall become Revolving Commitments
under this Agreement, Incremental Revolving Loans shall become Revolving Loans under this Agreement and each Additional Lender shall become a Revolving Lender and a Lender with respect to the Additional Revolving Commitment and all matters relating
thereto pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and such other Loan Documents as are necessary, executed by the Borrower, each Additional Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment and the
Administrative Agent. An Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, to effect the provisions and intent of this Section and the application of the proceeds thereof. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental
Facility Closing Date”) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Revolving Loans, unless it so agrees. The Borrower may use the proceeds of Incremental Revolving Loans
for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement unless otherwise agreed in connection with such Incremental 

  
 52 

 
Revolving Loans. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which Incremental Revolving Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, each of the
Revolving Lenders shall assign to each of the Additional Lenders, and each of the Additional Lenders shall purchase from each of the Revolving Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving
Loans outstanding on such Incremental Facility Closing Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by the existing Revolving Lenders and Additional Lenders
ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Incremental Revolving Commitments to the Revolving Commitments. 
 SECTION 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 To induce the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that: 
 3.1 Financial Condition. 
 (a) The unaudited pro forma
consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries as at April 1, 2007 (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”), a copy of which has heretofore been furnished to the Administrative Agent, has been
prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date) to (i) the consummation of the Refinancing, (ii) the Revolving Loans to be made on the Closing Date and the use of proceeds thereof and (iii) the payment of fees and
expenses in connection with the foregoing. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared based on the best information available to the Borrower as of the date of delivery thereof, and presents fairly on a pro forma basis the estimated
financial position of Borrower and its consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries as at April 1, 2007, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date. 

(b) The audited consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower as at December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of
income and of cash flows for the Fiscal Year ended on such date, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from KPMG LLP, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries as at such
date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the Fiscal Year then ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower as at April 1, 2007, and the related unaudited consolidated statements
of income and cash flows for the thirteen-week period ended on such date, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its
consolidated cash flows for the thirteen-week period then ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments). All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied
consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein). As of the Closing Date, neither the Borrower nor any Group Member has any material Guarantee Obligations, contingent
liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments, including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that should be
and are not reflected under GAAP in the most recent financial statements referred to in this paragraph. During the period from December 31, 2006 to and including the date hereof there has been no Asset Sale by the Borrower or any Group Member
of any material part of its business or property. 

  
 53 

 3.2 No Change. 

Since December 31, 2006, there has been no development or event that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 3.3 Existence; Compliance with Law. 

Each Group Member (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization, (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a
foreign corporation or other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification and (d) is in compliance with all
Requirements of Law except, in each case, to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

3.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. 
 Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to obtain
extensions of credit hereunder. Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors has taken all necessary organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower,
to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection
with the Refinancing and the extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices
described in Schedule 3.4, which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (ii) the filings referred to in Section 3.19. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and
delivered on behalf of each of the Borrower and the Guarantors party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Borrower and the Guarantors
party thereto, enforceable against each of the Borrower and the Guarantors in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 
 3.5 No Legal Bar. 
 The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of any Group Member except as would not individually or in the aggregate
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual
Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents and the Revolving Facility Security Documents). No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries would reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 3.6 Litigation. 

No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the
Borrower, threatened by or against any Group Member or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or (b) that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

  
 54 

 3.7 No Default. 

No Group Member is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that would reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 3.8 Ownership
of Property; Liens. 
 Each Group Member has title in fee simple to all its owned real property, and good title to, or a
valid leasehold interest in, all its other property, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 6.2 and except for such defects of title as would not in whole or in part reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. 
 3.9 Intellectual Property. 

Each Group Member owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property material to the conduct of its business as currently conducted,
except as would not in whole or in part reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.9, no material claim has been asserted and is pending against any Group Member by any Person challenging or
questioning (i) the use by any Group Member of any of their material Intellectual Property or (ii) the validity of any Registered Intellectual Property owned by such Group Member. To the knowledge of the Borrower, the use of Registered
Intellectual Property owned by any Group Member does not infringe on the rights of any Person in any material respect. 
 3.10
Taxes. 
 Each Group Member has filed or caused to be filed all Federal, state and other material tax returns that are
required to be filed and has paid all material taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other material taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by
any Governmental Authority (other than any of which the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of
the relevant Group Member); no tax Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such material tax, fee or other charge. 

3.11 Federal Regulations. 
 No part of the proceeds of any Loans, and no other extensions of credit hereunder, will be used (a) for “buying” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective
meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and from time to time hereafter in effect for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board or (b) for any purpose that violates the provisions of the
Regulations of the Board. If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form
U-1, as applicable, referred to in Regulation U. 

  
 55 

 3.12 Labor Matters. 

Except as, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (a) there are no strikes or other
labor disputes against any Group Member pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened; (b) hours worked by and payment made to employees of each Group Member have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other
applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters; and (c) all payments due from any Group Member on account of employee health and welfare insurance have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the relevant Group Member.

 3.13 ERISA. 
 Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA), and, on and after the effectiveness of the
Pension Act, no failure by any Plan to satisfy the minimum funding standards (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) applicable to such Plan, whether or not waived, has occurred during the five-year period
prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, in each case other than as described in
Schedule 3.13. On and after the effectiveness of the Pension Act, there has been no determination that any Plan is, or is expected to be, in “at risk” status (within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA) during such five-year period. Except as
set forth on Schedule 3.13, the present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation
is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such
five-year period, in each case other than as described on Schedule 3.13. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity is party to a Multiemployer Plan. 
 3.14 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. 
 None of the Borrower or
any Guarantor is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. None of the Borrower or any Guarantor is subject to
regulation under any Requirement of Law (other than Regulation X of the Board) that limits its ability to incur Indebtedness. 

3.15 Subsidiaries. 
 Except as disclosed to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in writing from time to time after the Closing Date or as set forth on Schedule 3.15, (a) Schedule 3.15 sets forth the name and
jurisdiction of incorporation of each Subsidiary and, as to each such Subsidiary, the percentage of each class of Capital Stock owned by each of the Borrower and the Guarantors and (b) there are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants,
calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Capital Stock of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, except as created by
the Loan Documents. 
 3.16 Use of Proceeds. 
 The proceeds of the Loans shall be used to finance the working capital needs of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and/or to refinance a portion of the
extensions of credit under the Existing Credit Agreements. 

  
 56 

 3.17 Environmental Matters. 

Except as, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: 

(a) the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by any Group Member (the “Properties”) do not contain, and
have not previously contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations or under circumstances that constitute or constituted a violation of, or would give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law; 

(b) no Group Member has received or is aware of any notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential

believe that any such notice will be received or is being threatened; 
 (c) Materials of Environmental Concern have not been
transported or disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a location that would reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law, nor have any Materials of Environmental Concern been generated,
treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any of the Properties in violation of, or in a manner that would reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any applicable Environmental Law; 

(d) no judicial proceeding or governmental or administrative action is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened, under
any Environmental Law to which any Group Member is or will be named as a party with respect to the Properties or the Business, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other
administrative or judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business; 

(e) there has been no release or threat of release of Materials of Environmental Concern at or from the Properties, or arising from or
related to the operations of any Group Member in connection with the Properties or otherwise in connection with the Business, in violation of or in amounts or in a manner that would give rise to liability under Environmental Laws; 

(f) the Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance, and have in the last five years been in compliance, with all
applicable Environmental Laws, and there is no contamination at, under or about the Properties or violation of any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business; and 

(g) no Group Member has incurred any liability of any other Person under Environmental Laws. 

3.18 Accuracy of Information, etc. 
 No statement or information contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Confidential Information Memorandum or any other document, certificate or statement furnished by or on behalf of any
of the Borrower or any Guarantor to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, contained as of the date such statement,
information, document or certificate was so furnished (or, in the case of the Confidential Information Memorandum, as of the date of this Agreement), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained herein or therein not misleading. The projections and pro forma financial information 

  
 57 

 
contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by
the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein
by a material amount. There is no fact known to the Borrower or any Guarantor that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been expressly disclosed herein, in the other Loan Documents, in the Confidential
Information Memorandum or in any other documents, certificates and statements furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents. 

3.19 Security Documents. 
 (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the
Collateral as defined therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of (i) the Pledged Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when stock certificates representing such Pledged Collateral are delivered to the Administrative
Agent, (ii) the UCC Collateral, when financing statements specified on Schedule 3.19(a) in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a), (iii) in the case of Collateral Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes (as
such terms are defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), upon the depository in which such accounts or lock boxes are maintained agreeing that it will comply with the instructions originated by the Administrative Agent directing
disposition of the funds or items in such accounts or lock boxes without further consent from the owner of such accounts or lock boxes, and (iv) the Registered Intellectual Property described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when
(A) the security interests granted in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights are recorded in the applicable Intellectual Property registries, including United States Patent and Trademark Office and the
United States Copyright Office and (B) when financing statements are filed in such Borrower or Guarantor’s jurisdiction of organization, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security
interest in, all right, title and interest of the Borrower and the Guarantors in such Pledged Collateral, UCC Collateral, Collateral Deposit Accounts, Lock Boxes, Registered Intellectual Property and the proceeds thereof, as security for the
Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except, in the case of Collateral other than Pledged Collateral, Liens permitted by Section 6.2) subject to the
Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (b) Each of the Mortgages is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable Lien on the Mortgaged Properties described therein and proceeds thereof, and when the Mortgages are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(b), each such Mortgage shall constitute a
fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Borrower and the Guarantors in the Mortgaged Properties and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each
case prior and superior in right to any other Person, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement. Schedule 1.1B lists, as of the Closing Date, each parcel of owned real property located in the United States and held by the Borrower or any Subsidiary
Guarantor that has a value, in the reasonable opinion of the Borrower, in excess of $1,000,000. 
 3.20 Solvency.

 Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors is, and after giving effect to the Refinancing and the incurrence of all Indebtedness
and obligations being incurred in connection herewith and therewith will be and will continue to be, Solvent. 

  
 58 

 3.21 Regulation H. 

No Mortgage encumbers improved real property that is located in an area that has been identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban
Development as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968. 
 3.22 Insurance. 
 As of the Closing Date, all insurance premiums have been
paid. The Borrower believes that the insurance maintained by or on behalf of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries is adequate.

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 Group Member a party thereto 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 Group Member. 
 8.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution,
notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy or email message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and 

  
 80 

 
correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and
other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. 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 Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or,
if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 

8.5 Notice of Default. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the
Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give
notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders);
provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or
Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. 
 8.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other
Lenders. 
 Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors,
partners, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Group Member or any affiliate of a Group
Member, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the Guarantors 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 any 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 Borrower and the Guarantors 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 Group Member or any affiliate of a Group Member that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or
affiliates. 

  
 81 

 Each Lender hereby agrees that (a) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by
or on behalf of the Administrative Agent; (b) the Administrative Agent (i) makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report or any of the information contained therein or any
inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating to a Report and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; (c) the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Person performing any field
examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Borrower and the Guarantors and will rely significantly upon the Borrower and the Guarantors’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Borrower and the
Guarantors’ personnel and that the Administrative Agent undertakes no obligation to update, correct or supplement the Reports; (d) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share the Report with any Group
Member or any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement; and (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, it will pay and protect, and indemnify,
defend, and hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable attorney fees) incurred by as the
direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender. 

8.7 Indemnification. 
 The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent and its officers, directors, partners, employees, affiliates, agents, advisors and controlling persons (each, an “Agent Indemnitee”) (to the
extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Applicable Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if
indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Applicable Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or
asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent
Indemnitee or its Related Persons (if any). The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 8.8 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 Group Member as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or
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 an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and
“Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity. 
 8.9 Successor Administrative Agent.

 The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the
Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under 

  
 82 

 
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 an Event of
Default under Section 7(a) or Section 7(f) with respect to the Borrower 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 term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s
rights, powers and duties as Administrative 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
agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 10 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become
effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative
Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 and of Section 9.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit. 
 8.10 Documentation Agents and Syndication Agent. 
 Neither the
Documentation Agents nor the Syndication Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder in its capacity as such. 

SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS 
 9.1 Amendments and Waivers. 
 (a) Neither this Agreement, any other
Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.1. The Required Lenders and each Group Member party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with
the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Group Member party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan
Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Borrower and the Guarantors hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and
conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences;
provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or
fee payable hereunder (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders)) or extend the scheduled date of any payment
thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (provided that the Administrative Agent may make
Protective Advances as set forth in Section 2.4); (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 9.1 without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition
of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all
of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; (iv) change Section 2.18(b) or (d) in a manner that would alter the manner in
which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender; (v) increase the advance rates set forth in the definition of Borrowing Base, add new categories of eligible assets or modify the definitions applicable to 

  
 83 

 
existing categories of eligible assets in a manner that would have the effect of increasing Availability, without the written consent of Lenders having Credit Exposure and unused Commitments
representing more than 75% of the sum of the total Credit Exposure and unused Commitments at such time; (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 8 or any other provision of any Loan Document that affects the Administrative
Agent without the written consent of the Administrative Agent; (vii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.5 without the written consent of the Swingline Lender; or (viii) amend, modify or waive any provision of
Section 2.6 without the written consent of the Issuing Bank. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower and the Guarantors, the Lenders,
the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower and the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. 

(b) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each
Lender affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a
“Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is
reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender
for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.6, and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to
such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination,
including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.15 and 2.17, and (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under
Section 2.16 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement, including this Section 9.1, and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to Section 2.22 in order to incorporate any Incremental
Revolving Commitments and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the
Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and to include appropriately the Additional Lenders in any determination of the Required Lenders.

 9.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or
privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or 

  
 85 

 
privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 
 9.4 Survival of
Representations and Warranties. 
 All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any

9.5 Payment of Expenses and Taxes. 
 (a) The Borrower agrees (i) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arranger for all their reasonable out-of-pocket and documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable, documented fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger and filing and recording fees and expenses, with statements with respect to the
foregoing to be submitted to the Borrower prior to the Closing Date (in the case of amounts to be paid on the Closing Date) and from time to time thereafter on a quarterly basis or such other periodic basis as the Administrative Agent shall deem
appropriate, (ii) to pay or reimburse each Lender and the Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents and any such other documents, including the fees and disbursements of one counsel in each relevant jurisdiction in which property is located and of counsel to the Administrative Agent, and (iii) to pay, indemnify, and hold each
Lender, the Arranger and the Agents harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes, if any, that may be payable or determined to
be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents to the extent, in the case of this clause (iii), payable under and in accordance with Section 2.17, subject to the limitations of Section 2.13. 

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Agents, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Person of any of the foregoing Persons
(each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any
counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the
performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Refinancing or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including
any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged
presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, or
(iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such 

  
 86 

 
losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 
 (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to
be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as
the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim,
damage, penalty, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. 

(d) Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause the
Restricted Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause the Restricted Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities,
settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. 

(e) All amounts due under this Section 9.5 shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor. Statements payable
by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.5 shall be submitted to Richard A. Kerley, Chief Financial Officer (Telephone No. (480) 596-7105) (Telecopy No. (480) 368-5460), at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 9.2,
or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 9.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 9.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower
without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of: 
 (A) the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to any Person if an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing; 
 (B) the Administrative Agent; and 

(C) the Issuing Bank; 

  
 87 

 provided that no consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank shall be
required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (as defined below). 
 (ii) Assignments
shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) 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 Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent,
provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if
any; 
 (B) (1) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and (2) the assigning Lender shall have paid in full any amounts owing by it to the Administrative Agent; and 

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative
questionnaire in which the Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective
securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws. 

For the purposes of this Section 9.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is
engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an affiliate of a Lender or (c) an
entity or an affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof
pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption,
have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s 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 9.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.6 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 (c) of this Section. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this
purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal
amount of the Loans and LC Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank
and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 

  
 88 

 (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning
Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written
consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for
purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c) (i) Any Lender
may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each
Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 9.1 and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 9.7(a) as though it were a Lender. 

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would
have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. Any Participant that is a Non-U.S. Lender
shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless such Participant is able to comply and in fact complies with Section 2.17(d). 
 (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to
secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 9.7 Adjustments;
Set-off. 
 (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time
owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the Secured Obligations held by such Lender, 

  
 89 

 
irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured. The applicable Lender shall notify the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent of such set-off or application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section. The rights of each Lender under
this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
 (b)
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, AT ANY TIME THAT ANY OF THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE SECURED BY REAL PROPERTY LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, NO LENDER SHALL EXERCISE A RIGHT OF SETOFF, LENDER’S LIEN OR COUNTERCLAIM OR TAKE ANY COURT OR
ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION OR INSTITUTE ANY PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT UNLESS IT IS TAKEN WITH THE CONSENT OF THE LENDERS REQUIRED BY SECTION 9.1 OF THIS AGREEMENT, IF SUCH SETOFF OR ACTION OR PROCEEDING
WOULD OR MIGHT (PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 580a, 580b, 580d AND 726 OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OR SECTION 2924 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, IF APPLICABLE, OR OTHERWISE) AFFECT OR IMPAIR THE VALIDITY, PRIORITY, OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE
LIENS GRANTED TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO THE SECURITY DOCUMENTS OR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND ANY ATTEMPTED EXERCISE BY ANY LENDER OR ANY SUCH RIGHT WITHOUT OBTAINING SUCH CONSENT OF THE PARTIES AS REQUIRED
ABOVE, SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL BE SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF EACH OF THE LENDERS. 
 9.8
Counterparts. 
 This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate
counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by email or facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a
manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 9.9 Severability. 
 Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 9.10 Integration.

 (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be

 (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a
copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Borrower, as the case may be at its address set forth in Section 9.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent
shall have been notified pursuant thereto; 
 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect
service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

(b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Borrower arising
out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of
debtor and creditor; and 
 (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise
exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Borrower and the Lenders. 

  
 91 

 9.14 Releases of Guarantees and Liens. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent is hereby
irrevocably authorized by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by Section 9.1) to take any action requested by the Borrower having the effect of releasing any Collateral or
guarantee obligations (i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 9.1 or (ii) under the circumstances described in
paragraph (b) below. 
 (b) At such time as the Loans and the other obligations under the Loan Documents (other than
obligations under or in respect of Swap Agreements) shall have been paid in full, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, and the Security Documents and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to
survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each of the Borrower and the Guarantors under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person. 

(c) Except as provided above in this Section 9.14, the Administrative Agent will not release any Liens on Collateral without the
prior written authorization of the Required Lenders; provided that, the Administrative Agent may in its discretion, release its Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $10,000,000 during any calendar year without the
prior written authorization of the Required Lenders. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Borrower and the
Guarantors in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower and the Guarantors, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. 

9.15 Confidentiality. 
 (a) Each of the Agents and each Lender agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it by the Borrower or any Guarantor, any Agent or any Lender pursuant to or in connection
with this Agreement that is designated by the provider thereof as confidential; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to any Agent, any other Lender or
any affiliate thereof, (b) subject to an agreement to comply with the provisions of this Section, to any actual or prospective Transferee or any pledgee referred to in Section 9.6(d) or any direct or indirect counterparty to any Swap
Agreement (or any professional advisor to such counterparty), (c) to its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors or those of any of its affiliates, (d) upon the request or demand of any
Governmental Authority, (e) in response to any order of or request from any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (f) if requested or required to do so in connection with
any litigation or similar proceeding, (g) that has been publicly disclosed, (h) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to
information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender, (i) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document or (j) if consented to in
writing by the Borrower. 
 (b) Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of
material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 

  
 92 

 (c) All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its
Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive
information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 
 9.16 Appointment for Perfection. 
 Each Lender hereby appoints each other
Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should
any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral
to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions. 
 9.17 WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. 
 THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN. 

9.18 Several Obligations; Nonreliance; Violation of Law. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not
joint and the failure of any Lender to make any Loan or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any
margin stock for the repayment of the Borrowings provided for herein. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the Borrower in violation of
any Requirement of Law. 
 9.19 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act
(Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the
Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act. 

9.20 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the Guarantors in the Loan
Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and
delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or
any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any
Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding 

  
 93 

 
and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.5 and Section 8 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless
of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 

9.21 Delivery of Addenda. 
 Each initial Lender shall become a party to this Agreement by delivering to the Administrative Agent an Addendum duly executed by such Lender. 

9.22 Intercreditor Agreement. 
 The terms of this Agreement, any lien and security interest granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security Documents and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent under
the Loan Documents are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement shall supersede the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

  
 94

delivered by their proper and duly authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

 Schedule 3.9 Intellectual Property 

Matters Currently Proceeding Before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (“TTAB”) of the United States Patent and Trademark Office
(“USPTO”): 
  

	 	1.	In re Application Serial Nos. 76/516,126 and/or 76/516, 127 and/or 76/515,928, filed 4/25/03: Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (“FMIC”) filed three
separate trademark registration applications for trademark registrations on the principal register of the two dimensional body designs of electric guitars and basses used by FMIC and its predecessors. During publication of the applications in the
Official Gazette, a consortium of companies filed notices of opposition of the applications (“Opposers”). The matters were consolidated in the TTAB as Consolidated Opposition No. 91161403. Following denial of the Opposers’ motion
for summary judgment, the TTAB scheduled the matter for trial, the testimony periods of which are currently set to conclude on or by November 15, 2007. 

 

	 	2.	 In the Matter of USPTO Trademark Registration No. 2,772,766 (Supplemental Register): On October 11, 2003, Jackson/Charvel Manufacturing, Inc.
(“JCMI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of FMIC, filed an application for registration on the principal register of the word mark SAN DIMAS (Ser. No. 78/312,464) in connection with JCMI’s Charvel® brand guitars. On April 30, 2004, the USPTO trademark examiner issued a non-final office action, citing SAN
DIMAS GUITARS THE CALIFORNIA GUITAR COMPANY (Design) (Registration No. 2,772,766), listed in the Supplemental Register of the USPTO (“No. 766”), as a potential bar to the registration of SAN DIMAS. Thereafter, on October 24,
2003, FMIC initiated a cancellation proceeding against No. 766. The matter is currently pending before the TTAB as Cancellation No. 92042614. Following denial of Registrant’s motion for summary judgment, the matter proceeded to trial.
Briefing has been completed, and is pending resolution.

Section 2 shall have been satisfied by payment in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding or all Letters of Credit shall have been backstopped or cash collateralized and the Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time

Guarantor hereunder until the Borrower Obligations are paid in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding or all Letters of Credit shall have been backstopped or cash collateralized and the Commitments are terminated. 

2.2 Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its

right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders,
and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. 
 2.3 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, no Guarantor shall

by such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Borrower Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine. 

2.4 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Borrower Obligations. Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding

Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be)
may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment 

  
 6 

 
of the Borrower Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or
insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Borrower Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto.

reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Borrower Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have
been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between the Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2. Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for
payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Borrower Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a
continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Borrower Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or
guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time
be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or such Guarantor) which
constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the Borrower Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When
making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and
remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Borrower Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise
any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not
impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and
continuance of any legal proceedings. 
 2.6 Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall continue
to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Borrower Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any
Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

licensed by it, including, without limitation, the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings, except if, solely in such Grantor’s reasonable
business judgment, such Collateral is not or is no longer material or useful to its business. 
 (c) Upon request of the
Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall execute and deliver any and all security or collateral agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s first

to be invalidated or otherwise impaired except if, solely in such Grantor’s reasonable business judgment, such material Registered Intellectual Property owned by it is no longer material or useful to its business.

itself or through licensees) (i) will take commercially reasonable steps to substantially maintain, solely if consistent with such Grantor’s reasonable business judgment, as in the past, the quality of all products and services offered
under each material Trademark owned or exclusively licensed by such Grantor, and (ii) will use the Registered Intellectual Property it owns with all appropriate notices of registration and all other legends required by applicable Requirements

received a Collateral Access Agreement as of the Closing Date (or, if later, as of the date such location is acquired or leased), Borrower’s Eligible Inventory at that location shall be subject to such Reserves as set forth in the definition of
“Eligible Inventory” in the Credit Agreement. After the Closing Date, no Inventory with an aggregate book value of more than $300,000 that is shipped to a processor or converter under arrangements established after the closing date or

Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies (it being understood that any such exercise shall be subject to the Intercreditor Agreement): 

(i) those rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document;
provided that this Section 6.1(a) shall not be understood to limit any rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders prior to an Event of Default; 

(ii) those rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected
Collateral) or under any other applicable law (including, without limitation, any law governing the exercise of a bank’s right of setoff or bankers’ lien) when a debtor is in default under a security or collateral agreement; 

(iii) give notice of sole Control or any other instruction under any Deposit Account Control Agreement or and other
control agreement with any Securities Intermediary and take any action therein with respect to such Collateral; 

(iv) without notice (except as specifically provided in Section 10.4 or elsewhere herein), demand or advertisement of
any kind to any Grantor or any other Person, enter the premises of any Grantor where any Collateral is located (through self-help and without judicial process) to collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, sell, lease, assign, grant an option
or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of, deliver, or realize upon, the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales (which sales may be adjourned or continued from time to time with or without
notice and may take place at any Grantor’s premises or elsewhere), for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable; and

  
 18 

 (v) concurrently with written notice to the applicable Grantor, transfer and
register in its name or in the name of its nominee the whole or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to exchange certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Pledged Collateral for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger
denominations, to exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect thereto, to collect and receive all cash dividends, interest, principal and other distributions made thereon and to otherwise act with respect to the Pledged
Collateral as though the Administrative Agent was the outright owner thereof, provided that, in no event shall any United States intent-to-use trademark or service mark application be assigned to the Administrative Agent until an amendment to
allege use or a statement of use has been filed under 15 U.S.C. §1501(d) and accepted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be
considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent
shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the whole or any part of the Collateral so
sold, free of any right of equity redemption, which equity redemption the Grantor hereby expressly releases. 
 (d) Until the
Administrative Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of
preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce
any of the Administrative Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and Lenders), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. 

(e) If, after the Credit Agreement has terminated by its terms and all of the Obligations have been paid in full (other than Unliquidated
Obligations), and the Unliquidated Obligations shall have been cash collateralized, to the extent the same can be cash collateralized and to the extent the amount of such Unliquidated Obligations can reasonably be estimated, in a manner satisfactory
to each affected Secured Party, there remain Swap Obligations outstanding, the Required Secured Parties may exercise the remedies provided in this Section 6.1 upon the occurrence of any event which would allow or require the termination or
acceleration of any Swap Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Specified Swap Agreements; provided that nothing hereunder shall expand the termination or acceleration rights of any Lender (or affiliate thereof) under the Specified Swap
Agreements. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be required to
(i) make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their
rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof, (ii) marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any such guarantee in any particular
order, or (iii) effect a public sale of any Collateral. 
 (g) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be
unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof in accordance with clause (a) above. Each Grantor also acknowledges that any private sale may result in
prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been

  
 19 

 
made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for
the period of time necessary to permit any Grantor or the issuer of the Pledged Collateral to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the applicable
Grantor and the issuer would agree to do so. 
 6.2 Grantor’s Obligations Upon an Event of Default. Upon the request
of the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will: 
 (a)
assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent the Collateral and all books and records relating thereto at any place or places specified by the Administrative Agent, whether at a Grantor’s premises or elsewhere; 

(b) permit the Administrative Agent, by the Administrative Agent’s representatives and agents, to enter, occupy and use any premises
where all or any part of the Collateral, or the books and records relating thereto, or both, are located, to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, to remove all or any part of the
Collateral or the books and records relating thereto, or both, and to conduct sales of the Collateral, without any obligation to pay the Grantor for such use and occupancy; 
 (c) use reasonable commercial efforts to secure all consents and approvals necessary or appropriate (i) for the assignment to or for the benefit of the Administrative Agent of any License held by
such Grantor, and (ii) to enforce the security interests granted hereunder; and 
 (d) at its own expense, cause the
independent certified public accountants then engaged by each Grantor to prepare and deliver to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, at any time, and from time to time, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request, the following
reports with respect to the applicable Grantor: (i) a reconciliation of all Accounts; (ii) an aging of all Accounts; (iii) trial balances; and (iv) a test verification of such Accounts. 

6.3 Proceeds to be Turned Over to Administrative Agent. In addition to the rights of the Administrative Agent specified in
Sections 6.1 and 6.2, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if requested by the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds in respect of any Collateral received by any Grantor
consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over
to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, if required). All such proceeds received by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be held by the Administrative
Agent in a Deposit Account at the Administrative Agent or subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement. All such proceeds while held by the Administrative Agent or in such Deposit Account (or held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement. 

6.4 Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise the rights and
remedies under this Section 6 at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor hereby,
to the extent permitted by applicable law and not otherwise prohibited by any license, sublicense or agreement to which such Grantor is a party, (a) grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, a nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor) to 

  
 20 

 
use, license or, to the extent permitted by the relevant license, sublicense any Intellectual Property rights now owned or licensed or hereafter acquired or licensed by such Grantor, and wherever
the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media owned by such Grantor in which any of such owned Intellectual Property rights may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs owned or, to the extent
permitted by the relevant license agreement, licensed by such Grantor and used for the compilation or printout thereof and (b) agrees that the Administrative Agent may sell any of such Grantor’s Inventory directly to any Person, including
without limitation Persons who have previously purchased the Grantor’s Inventory from such Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights under this Agreement, may sell Inventory
which bears any Trademark owned by or, to the extent permitted by the terms of the relevant license, licensed to such Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any Copyright owned by or, to the extent permitted by the terms of the relevant
license, licensed to such Grantor and the Administrative Agent may finish any work in process and affix any Trademark owned by or, to the extent permitted by the terms of the relevant license, licensed to such Grantor and sell such Inventory as
provided herein and in any such license. 
 SECTION 7. ACCOUNT VERIFICATION; ATTORNEY-IN-FACT; PROXY 

7.1 Account Verification. The Administrative Agent may in its reasonable discretion from time to time in the Administrative
Agent’s own name or in the name of a nominee of the Administrative Agent communicate (by mail, telephone, facsimile or email) with the Account Debtors of any such Grantor and obligors in respect of Instruments of any such Grantor to verify with
such Persons, to the Administrative Agent’s reasonable satisfaction, the existence, amount and terms of Accounts, Instruments, Chattel Paper, payment intangibles and/or other Receivables. 

7.2 Authorization for Secured Party to Take Certain Action. 

(a) Each Grantor irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, in its reasonable discretion, and appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney in fact (i) to collect any cash proceeds of the Collateral, (ii) to apply the proceeds of any Collateral received by
the Administrative Agent to the Obligations as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) to discharge past due taxes, assessments, charges, fees or Liens on the Collateral (except for such Liens as are specifically permitted hereunder),
(iv) to contact Account Debtors for any reason, (v) to demand payment or enforce payment of the Receivables in the name of the Administrative Agent or such Grantor and to endorse any and all checks, drafts, and other instruments for the
payment of money relating to the Receivables, (vi) to sign such Grantor’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to the Receivables, drafts against any Account Debtor of the Grantor, assignments and verifications of Receivables,
(vii) to exercise all of such Grantor’s rights and remedies with respect to the collection of the Receivables and any other Collateral, (viii) to settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew the Receivables, (ix) to settle, adjust
or compromise any legal proceedings brought to collect Receivables, (x) to prepare, file and sign such Grantor’s name on a proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Account Debtor of such Grantor, (xi) to prepare,
file and sign such Grantor’s name on any notice of Lien, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document in connection with the Receivables, (xii) to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to such Grantor to such address
as the Administrative Agent may designate and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Grantor, (xiii) give notice exercising Control under any control agreement or any similar agreement with respect to any Securities Account
or Securities Intermediary or Commodity Account or Commodity Intermediary, (xiv) assign any Intellectual Property for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; and (xv) to
do all other acts and things necessary to carry out this Agreement; and such Grantor agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent on demand for any reasonable out-of-pocket payment made or expense incurred by 

  
 21 

 
the Administrative Agent in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that (a) this authorization shall not relieve such Grantor of any of its obligations under this Agreement or
under the Credit Agreement and (b) the Administrative Agent shall exercise the foregoing rights in accordance with this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement. 

(b) The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties, under this
Section 7.2 are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Anything in this Section 7.2 or
elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided in this Section 7.2 unless an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 7.3 Proxy. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSTITUTES AND APPOINTS THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AS ITS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT (AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 7.2 ABOVE) WITH RESPECT TO ITS PLEDGED COLLATERAL, INCLUDING THE RIGHT (SUBJECT TO THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT) TO VOTE SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL, WITH FULL POWER OF
SUBSTITUTION TO DO SO AFTER THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. IN ADDITION TO THE RIGHT TO VOTE ANY SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL AFTER THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, THE APPOINTMENT OF THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT SHALL INCLUDE THE RIGHT (SUBJECT TO THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT) TO EXERCISE ALL OTHER RIGHTS, POWERS, PRIVILEGES AND REMEDIES TO WHICH A HOLDER OF SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL WOULD BE ENTITLED
(INCLUDING GIVING OR WITHHOLDING WRITTEN CONSENTS OF SHAREHOLDERS, CALLING SPECIAL MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS AND VOTING AT SUCH MEETINGS). SUCH PROXY SHALL BE EFFECTIVE, AUTOMATICALLY AND WITHOUT THE NECESSITY OF ANY ACTION (INCLUDING ANY TRANSFER OF
ANY SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL ON THE RECORD BOOKS OF THE ISSUER THEREOF) BY ANY PERSON (INCLUDING THE ISSUER OF SUCH PLEDGED COLLATERAL OR ANY OFFICER OR AGENT THEREOF), UPON THE OCCURRENCE AND DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT.

 7.4 Nature of Appointment; Limitation of Duty. THE APPOINTMENT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AS PROXY AND
ATTORNEY-IN-FACT IN THIS SECTION 7 IS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE UNTIL THE DATE ON WHICH THIS AGREEMENT IS TERMINATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 9.20. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED HEREIN, NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, NOR ANY LENDER, NOR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL HAVE ANY DUTY TO EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OR POWER GRANTED HEREUNDER OR OTHERWISE OR TO PRESERVE THE SAME AND SHALL NOT BE
LIABLE FOR ANY FAILURE TO DO SO OR FOR ANY DELAY IN DOING SO, EXCEPT IN RESPECT OF DAMAGES ATTRIBUTABLE SOLELY TO THEIR OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION; PROVIDED THAT, IN NO EVENT

 SECTION 8. COLLECTION AND APPLICATION OF
COLLATERAL PROCEEDS; DEPOSIT 
 ACCOUNTS 

  
 22 

 8.1 Collection of Receivables. 

(a) Within 30 days after the Closing Date, each Grantor shall (a) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent Deposit Account
Control Agreements for each Deposit Account maintained by such Grantor into which all cash, checks or other similar payments relating to or constituting payments made in respect of Receivables will be deposited (a “Collateral Deposit
Account”), which Collateral Deposit Accounts are identified as such on Exhibit B, and (b) establish lock box service (the “Lock Boxes”) with the bank(s) set forth in Exhibit B, which lock boxes shall be
subject to “springing” control agreements in the form provided by or otherwise acceptable to the Administrative Agent and shall be accompanied by an acknowledgment by the bank where the Lock Box is located of the Lien of the Administrative
Agent granted hereunder and of irrevocable instructions to wire all amounts collected therein to the Collection Account (a “Lock Box Agreement”). After the Closing Date, each Grantor will comply with the terms of Section 8.2.

 (b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or Liquidity Event, (i) each Grantor shall direct all of its Account
Debtors to forward payments directly to Lock Boxes subject to Lock Box Agreements, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have sole access to the Lock Boxes at all times and each Grantor shall take all actions necessary to grant the Administrative
Agent such sole access, (iii) if any Grantor should refuse or neglect to notify any Account Debtor to forward payments directly to a Lock Box subject to a Lock Box Agreement after notice from the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to make such notification directly to Account Debtor, (iv) if notwithstanding the foregoing instructions, any Grantor receives any proceeds of any Receivables, such Grantor shall receive such payments as the Administrative
Agent’s trustee, and shall immediately deposit all cash, checks or other similar payments related to or constituting payments made in respect of Receivables received by it to a Collateral Deposit Account, (v) all funds deposited into any
Lock Box subject to a Lock Box Agreement or a Collateral Deposit Account will be swept on a daily basis into a collection account maintained by the Borrower with the Administrative Agent (the “Collection Account”). The
Administrative Agent shall hold and apply funds received into the Collection Account as provided by the terms of Section 8.3 and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement. Anything in this Section 8.1(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement or in
any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not exercise any of its rights under this Section 8.1(b) or deliver a notice of control or similar instructions to any banking institution
holding a Collateral Deposit Account or Lock Box unless an Event of Default or Liquidity Event shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 8.2 Covenant Regarding New Deposit Accounts; Lock Boxes. Before opening or replacing any Collateral Deposit Account, each Grantor shall cause each bank or financial institution in which it seeks to
open (i) a Collateral Deposit Account, to enter into a Deposit Account Control Agreement with the Administrative Agent in order to give the Administrative Agent Control of such Deposit Account, or (ii) a Lock Box, to enter into a Lock Box
Agreement with the Administrative Agent in order to give the Administrative Agent Control of the Lock Box. In the case of Collateral Deposit Accounts or Lock Boxes maintained with Lenders, the terms of such letter shall be subject to the provisions
of the Credit Agreement regarding setoffs. 
 8.3 Application of Proceeds; Deficiency. All amounts deposited in the
Collection Account shall be deemed received by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement and shall, after having been credited to the Collection Account, be applied (and allocated) by Administrative Agent
in accordance with Section 2.10(b) of the Credit Agreement (the “Dominion”); provided that, at any time that Availability plus Perfected Cash is at least $15,000,000 for a period of 60 consecutive days and no Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Dominion shall cease and the Administrative Agent shall deposit all amounts received in the Collection Account in 

  
 23 

 
accordance with the Borrower’s written instructions unless and until an Event of Default or a Liquidity Event subsequently occurs in which case the Dominion shall again become effective. The
Administrative Agent shall require all other cash proceeds of the Collateral, which are not required to be applied to the Obligations pursuant to Section 2.11 of the Credit Agreement, to be deposited in a special non-interest bearing cash
collateral account with the Administrative Agent and held there as security for the Obligations. No Grantor shall have any control whatsoever over said cash collateral account. Any such proceeds of the Collateral shall be applied in the order set
forth in Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement unless a court of competent jurisdiction shall otherwise direct. The balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been satisfied, shall be deposited by the Administrative Agent into the
Borrower’s general operating account identified to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower. The Grantors shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all
Obligations, including any attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or any Lender to collect such deficiency. 
 SECTION 9. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 9.1 Duty of Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the
Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon
any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the
Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their
officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

9.2 Execution of Financing Statements; Other Perfection Actions. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the
Administrative Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Administrative Agent
determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to use the collateral description “all personal property” in any such financing
statements. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Administrative Agent of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the date hereof. Each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to contact and
enter into one or more agreements with the Issuers of uncertificated securities which are Pledged Collateral or with Securities Intermediaries holding Pledged Collateral as may be necessary to give the Administrative Agent Control over such Pledged
Collateral (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement). Each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute, deliver and record any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to
evidence the Administrative Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ security interest with respect to any Intellectual Property constituting Collateral (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement). 

9.3 Authority of Administrative Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent
under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the 

  
 24 

 
Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or
arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the
Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Lenders with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or
entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority. 
 SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS 

10.1 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise
modified except in accordance with Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement. 
 10.2 Notices. All notices, requests and
demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 9.2 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor shall be
addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Exhibit A hereto. 
 10.3 No Waiver by Course of
Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 10.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy
hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any
right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative,
may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law. 
 10.4
Waivers. Each Grantor hereby waives notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived
under applicable law, any notice made shall be deemed reasonable if sent to the Grantors, addressed as set forth in Section 10.2, at least ten days prior to (i) the date of any such public sale or (ii) the time after which any such
private sale or other disposition may be made. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Administrative Agent or any Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale
of the Collateral, except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor
absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any valuation, stay, appraisal, extension, moratorium, redemption or similar laws and any
and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale
conferred by this Agreement, or otherwise. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with
this Agreement or any Collateral. 

  
 25 

 10.5 Limitation on Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ Duty with Respect to the
Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable care with respect to the Collateral in its possession or under
its control. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any other duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, or any
income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner,
each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Administrative Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Administrative Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform
raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to
obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to
remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection
specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as
such Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized
nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets,
(ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Administrative
Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Administrative Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Administrative
Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this
Section 10.5 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Administrative Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral after the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default and that other actions or omissions by the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 10.5. Without limitation
upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 10.5 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Administrative Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable
law in the absence of this Section 10.5 or give the Administrative Agent any rights or remedies in addition to those available under any Loan Document after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 

10.6 Compromises and Collection of Collateral. The Grantors and the Administrative Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims,
defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a
disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing (and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall
determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such 

  
 26 

 
action by the Administrative Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Administrative Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.

 10.7 Specific Performance of Certain Covenants. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the
covenants contained in Sections 5.1(d), 5.1(e), 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 5.7, 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.12, 6.2, 10.1 or Section 8 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, that the Administrative Agent and Lenders have no
adequate remedy at law in respect of such breaches and therefore agrees, without limiting the right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to seek and obtain specific performance of other obligations of the Grantors contained in this Agreement,
that the covenants of the Grantors contained in the Sections referred to in this Section 10.7 shall be specifically enforceable against the Grantors. 
 10.8 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Guarantor agrees to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable, out-of-pocket, documented costs and expenses incurred
in collecting against such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in Section 2 or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including, without limitation,
the reasonable, out-of-pocket, documented fees and disbursements of counsel to each Lender and of counsel to the Administrative Agent. 
 10.9 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their
successors and assigns; provided that no party may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement except in accordance with the Credit Agreement. 

10.10 Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without
notice to any Grantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Grantor to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Obligations becoming due and payable by any Grantor (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to
apply to the payment of such Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether
direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender, any affiliate thereof or any of their respective branches or agencies to or for the credit or the account of such Grantor. Each Lender agrees
promptly to notify the relevant Grantor and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application. 

10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate
counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. 
 10.12 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

10.13 Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect
the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof. 

  
 27 

 10.14 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the
agreement of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to
subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. 
 10.15
GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 10.16 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 
 (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment
in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New. York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have
to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified
mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Grantor at its address referred to in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; 

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit
the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 
 (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may
have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages. 
 10.17 Acknowledgements. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that: 
 (a) it has
been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party; 
 (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Grantor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and

hereto. 
 10.19 Releases. (a) At such time as the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other Obligations
(other than Obligations in respect of Specified Swap Agreements and Specified Cash Management Obligations) shall have been paid in full, the Commitments have been terminated and the Letters of Credit shall have been cash collateralized, the
Collateral shall be released from the Liens created hereby, and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Grantor hereunder shall terminate, all without
delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. At the request and sole expense of any Grantor, the Administrative Agent shall prepare and deliver to such Grantor a
customary payoff letter, specifying the amount of the Obligations to be repaid or otherwise satisfied and agree to terminate all Liens, security interests or other interests in Collateral hereunder or under any other Loan Document and, in connection
with any such termination, the Administrative Agent shall agree to deliver, and upon full payment of the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other Obligations (other than Obligations in respect of Specified Swap Agreements and Specified

the Administrative Agent, at least ten Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release identifying the relevant Guarantor and the terms of the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, including the price
thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

right or remedy by the Administrative Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement shall supersede the provisions of this Agreement. 
 10.22 Dutch Parallel Debts. 

  
 29 

 (a) Each Grantor undertakes to the Administrative Agent to pay to the Administrative Agent
its Dutch Parallel Debts. This clause (a) is (i) for the purpose of ensuring the validity and effect of any Lien governed by Dutch law and granted or to be granted by any Grantor pursuant to the Loan Documents, and (ii) without
prejudice to the other provisions of the Loan Documents. Each Dutch Parallel Debt is a separate and independent obligation and shall not constitute the Administrative Agent and any Secured Party as joint creditors of any Underlying Debt. If any
Underlying Debt is avoided or reduced other than (x) as a result of payment to, or recovery or discharge by, the Secured Party to which the Underlying Debt is owed or (ii) otherwise with the consent of that Secured Party, the amount of the
Dutch Parallel Debt corresponding to that Underlying Debt shall be equal to the amount which the Underlying Debt would have had if the avoidance or reduction had not occurred. 
 (b) No Grantor may pay any Dutch Parallel Debt other than at the instruction of, and in the manner determined by, the Administrative Agent. Without prejudice to the preceding sentence, no Grantor shall be
obliged to pay any Dutch Parallel Debt before the corresponding Underlying Debt has fallen due. All payments to be made by a Grantor in respect of its Dutch Parallel Debts shall be calculated and be made without (and clear of any deduction for)
set-off or counterclaim. 
 (c) Any payment made, or amount recovered, in respect of a Grantor’s Dutch Parallel Debts shall
reduce the Underlying Debts owed to a Secured Party by the amount which that Secured Party has received out of that payment or recovery under the Loan Documents. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any Loan Document, in relation to the Dutch Parallel Debts and any security governed by Dutch law: (i) the Administrative Agent shall act in its
own name and not as agent of any Secured Party (but always for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents); and (ii) the rights, powers and authorities vested in the Administrative Agent pursuant
to the Loan Documents are subject to any restrictions imposed by mandatory Dutch law. If the Administrative Agent resigns or is replaced in accordance with Section 8.9 of the Credit Agreement, each Grantor shall execute such documents and take
all such other action as is necessary in connection with the substitution, in accordance with applicable law, of the successor Administrative Agent as creditor of the Dutch Parallel Debts and as beneficiary of any security securing the Dutch
Parallel Debts. 
 (e) Each Grantor undertakes to execute and cause the execution of any document to the extent required under
Dutch law in order to grant in favor of the Administrative Agent a valid and perfected security interest in assets located in The Netherlands that constitute Collateral. Each party understands that foreclosure on any such Collateral governed by
Dutch law (including allocation of the proceeds) shall be subject to Dutch law and the provisions of the relevant Security Documents governed by Dutch law. 
 For purposes of this Section 10.22: 
 “Dutch Parallel Debt”
means, in relation to an Underlying Debt an obligation to pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to (and in the same currency as) the amount of that Underlying Debt. 
 “Underlying Debt” means, in relation to a Grantor and at any given time, such Grantor’s Obligations (excluding such Grantor’s Dutch Parallel Debts).

(ii) is separately identified by number at the end of this Agreement as a Securities Account (each hereinafter referred to individually as a “Securities Account” and collectively as “Securities Accounts”). As used in this
Agreement, the term “Restricted Account” also refers to each Eurodollar Sweep Account or Preferred Option Sweep Account (each hereinafter an “Offshore Account”) maintained by Company and linked to another Restricted Account by a
sweep mechanism. Company and Secured Party understand and acknowledge that each Restricted Account which is an Offshore Account is a subaccount, in the name of Company, of an offshore U.S. Dollar-denominated deposit account of Bank maintained
with Banks’ Grand Cayman branch, and that any transfer of funds into or out of the Offshore Account, pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement or otherwise, must pass through the domestic Restricted Account to which the Offshore Account is
specifically linked. Each account numerically designated as a Restricted Account includes, for purposes of this Agreement, and without the necessity of separately listing subaccount numbers, all subaccounts presently existing or hereafter
established for deposit reporting purposes and integrated with the numerically designated Restricted Account by a protocol under which deposits made through the subaccounts are posted only to the numerically designated Restricted Account.

  

	1.	 Secured Party’s Interest in Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts. Company is party to (i) that certain Revolving
Facility Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of June 7, 2007 (“Revolving Facility Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”), among Company, certain subsidiaries of Company and the Secured Party, and (ii) that certain Term
Facility Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of June 7, 2007 (“Term Facility Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”; and together with the Revolving Facility Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the “Guarantee and Collateral
Agreements”), among Company, certain subsidiaries of Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, “Term Facility Agent”). Pursuant to each Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, Company has granted to
the Secured Party and the Term Facility agent a security interest in all of Company’s right, title and interest in and to (i) the Restricted Accounts and all funds now or hereafter on deposit in or payable or withdrawable from the
Restricted Accounts (the “Restricted Account Funds”), and (ii) the Securities Accounts and all financial assets, security entitlements, investment property, and other property and the proceeds thereof now or at any time hereafter held
in the Securities Accounts (the “Securities Account Asssets”). (As used herein, the terms “investment property,” “financial asset” and “security entitlement” shall have the respective meanings set forth in the
Uniform Commerical Code of the state whose law governs this Agreement. The parties hereby expressly agree that all property, including without limitation, cash, certificates of deposit and mutual funds, at any time held in any of the Securities
Accounts is to be treated as a “financial asset”.) Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement, Company has given Secured Party complete control over the Restricted Accounts, the Restricted Account Funds, the Securties
Accounts, and the Securities Account Assets. Company and Secured Party desire to enter into 

	 	
this Agreement to further the arrangements between Secured Party and Company regarding the Restricted Accounts and the Securities Accounts. 

 

	2.	Access to Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts. Secured Party agrees that until Bank receives, and has had a reasonable opportunity to act upon,
written instructions from Secured Party directing that Company no longer have access to any Restricted Account Funds or Securities Account Assets (the “Instructions”), Company will be allowed access to the Restricted Account Funds, and
access to the Securities Account Assets through redemption of Securities Account Assets and transfer of the proceeds of such redemption in each case to the applicable Restricted Account. After Bank receives the Instructions, (a) Company will no
longer be allowed access to the Restricted Account Funds or Securities Account Assets, and (b) Secured Party will have the exclusive right to direct the disposition of all Restricted Account Funds and Securities Account Assets; and Bank agrees
to transfer the Restricted Account Funds and Securities Account Assets to Secured Party in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 below, subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Company agrees that the Restricted Account
Funds and Securities Account Assets should be paid and/or delivered to Secured Party after Bank receives the Instructions, and hereby irrevocably authorizes Bank to comply with the Instructions even if Company objects in any way to the Instructions.

  

	3.	Balance Reports. Bank agrees, at the telephone request of Secured Party on any day on which Bank is open to conduct its regular banking business other
than a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday (a “Business Day”), to make available to Secured Party a report (“Balance Report”) showing the available balance in the Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts as of the beginning of
such Business Day, either on-line or by facsimile transmission, at Bank’s option. Company expressly consents to this transmission of information. 

  

	4.	Transfers to Secured Party. Bank agrees that on each Business Day after it receives the Instructions it will transfer to the Secured Party’s account
specified at the end of this Agreement with the bank specified at the end of this Agreement or (if no account is so specified) to such account as Secured Party specifies in the Instructions (in either case, the “Secured Party Account”) the
full amount of the available balance in the Restricted Accounts at the beginning of such Business Day, including all Restricted Account Funds and Securities Account Assets in all Offshore Accounts or Securities Accounts linked to the Restricted
Accounts. Bank will use the Fedwire system to make each funds transfer unless for any reason the Fedwire system is unavailable, in which case Bank will determine the funds transfer system to be used in making each funds transfer and the means by
which each transfer will be made. Bank, Secured Party and Company each agree that Bank will, without further consent of Company, comply with (i) instructions given to Bank by Secured Party directing disposition of funds in the Restricted Accounts,
and (ii) entitlement orders originated by Secured Party directing disposition of Securities Account Assets in the Securities Accounts, subject otherwise to the terms of this Agreement and Bank’s standard policies, procedures and
documentation in effect from time to time governing the type of disposition requested. Except as otherwise required by law, Bank will not agree with any third party to comply with instructions or entitlement orders originated by such third party for
disposition of funds in any of the Restricted Accounts or Securities Account Assets in any of the Securities Accounts. 

  

	5.	 Returned Items. Secured Party and Company understand and agree that the face amount (“Returned Item Amount”) of each Returned Item
will be paid by Bank debiting the Restricted Account into which such Returned Item was originally deposited, without prior notice to Secured Party or Company. As used in this Agreement, the term “Returned Item” means (i) any item
deposited to the Restricted Account and returned unpaid, whether for insufficient funds or for any other reason, and without regard to the timeliness of such return or the occurrence or timeliness of

	 	
any drawee’s notice of non-payment; (ii) any item subject to a claim against Bank of breach of transfer or presentment warranty under the Uniform Commercial Code (as adopted in the
applicable state) or Regulation CC (12 C.F.R. §229) as in effect from time to time; (iii) any automated clearing house (“ACH”) entry credited to a Restricted Account and returned unpaid or subject to an adjustment entry under
applicable clearing house rules, whether for insufficient funds or for any other reason, and without regard to the timeliness of such return or adjustment; (iv) any credit to a Restricted Account from a merchant card transaction, against which
a contractual demand for chargeback has been made; and (v) any credit to a Restricted Account made in error. Company agrees to pay all Returned Item Amounts immediately on demand, without setoff or counterclaim, to the extent there are not
sufficient funds in the applicable Restricted Account to cover the Returned Item Amounts on the day they are to be debited from the Restricted Account. Secured Party agrees to pay all Returned Item Amounts within thirty (30) calendar days after
demand, without setoff or counterclaim, to the extent that (i) the Returned Item Amounts are not paid in full by Company within fifteen (15) calendar days after demand on Company by Bank, and (ii) Secured Party has received proceeds
from the corresponding Returned Items. 

  

	6.	Settlement Items. Secured Party and Company understand and agree that the face amount (“Settlement Item Amount”) of each Settlement Item will be paid
by Bank debiting the applicable Restricted Account, without prior notice to Secured Party or Company. As used in this Agreement, the term “Settlement Item” means (i) each check or other payment order drawn on or payable against any
controlled disbursement account or other deposit account at any time linked to a Restricted Account by a zero balance account connection (each a “Linked Account”), which Bank cashes or exchanges for a cashier’s check or official check
over its counters in the ordinary course of business prior to receiving the Instructions and having had a reasonable opportunity to act on them, and which is presented for settlement against the Restricted Account (after having been presented
against the Linked Account) after Bank receives the Instructions, (ii) each check or other payment order drawn on or payable against the Restricted Account, which, on the Business Day Bank receives the Instructions, Bank cashes or exchanges for
a cashier’s check or official check over its counters in the ordinary course of business after Bank’s cutoff time for posting, (iii) each ACH credit entry initiated by Bank, as originating depository financial institution, on behalf
of Company, as originator, prior to Bank having received the Instructions and having had a reasonable opportunity to act on them, which ACH credit entry settles after Bank receives the Instructions, and (iv) any other payment order drawn on or
payable against the Restricted Account, which Bank has paid or funded prior to receiving the Instructions and having had a reasonable opportunity to act on them, and which is first presented for settlement against the Restricted Account in the
ordinary course of business after Bank receives the Instructions and has transferred Account Funds to Secured Party under Section 4 of this Agreement. Company agrees to pay all Settlement Item Amounts immediately on demand, without setoff or
counterclaim, to the extent there are not sufficient funds in the applicable Restricted Account to cover the Settlement Item Amounts on the day they are to be debited from the Restricted Account. Secured Party agrees to pay all Settlement Item
Amounts within thirty (30) calendar days after demand, without setoff or counterclaim, to the extent that (i) the Settlement Item Amounts are not paid in full by Company within fifteen (15) calendar days after demand on Company by
Bank, and (ii) Secured Party has received Restricted Account Funds under Section 4 of this Agreement. 

  

	7.	 Bank Fees. Company agrees to pay all Bank’s fees and charges for the maintenance and administration of the Restricted Accounts and
Securities Accounts and for the treasury management and other account services provided with respect to the Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts (collectively “Bank Fees”), including, but not limited to, the fees for (a) the
Balance Reports provided on the Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts, (b) the funds transfer services received with respect to the Restricted Accounts, (c) Returned Items, (d) funds advanced to cover overdrafts in the
Restricted Accounts (but without Bank being in any way 

	 	
obligated to make any such advances), and (e) duplicate bank statements on the Restricted Accounts. The Bank Fees will be paid by Bank debiting one or more of the Restricted Account on the
Business Day that the Bank Fees are due, without notice to Secured Party or Company. If there are not sufficient funds in the Restricted Accounts to cover fully the Bank Fees on the Business Day they are debited from the Restricted Accounts, such
shortfall or the amount of such Bank Fees will be paid by Company sending Bank a check in the amount of such shortfall or such Bank Fees, without setoff or counterclaim, within fifteen (15) calendar days after demand of Bank.

  

	8.	Account Documentation. Bank, Secured Party and Company agree that this Agreement supersedes, to the extent applicable, all prior agreements of Company and Bank
with respect to the Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts including without limitation (i) Bank’s Commercial Account Agreement or other deposit account agreement governing the Restricted Accounts and (ii) Bank’s Acceptance
of Services, Master Agreement for Treasury Management Services, and applicable sweep option Service Description or securities account agreement governing the Offshore Accounts and Securities Accounts (collectively, the “Account
Documentation”). Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, Secured Party and Company acknowledge that Bank’s operation of the Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts will be in accordance with, the terms and provisions of the
Account Documentation. 

  

	9.	Bank Statements. After Bank receives the Instructions, Bank will, upon receiving a written request from Secured Party, send to Secured Party by United States
mail, at the address indicated for Secured Party after its signature to this Agreement, duplicate copies of all bank statements on the Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts which are sent to Company. Company and/or Secured Party will have
thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of a bank statement to notify Bank of an error in such statement. Bank’s liability for such errors is limited as provided in the “Limitation of Liability” section of this Agreement.

  

	10.	Partial Subordination of Bank’s Rights. Bank hereby subordinates to the security interest of Secured Party in the Restricted Accounts and Securities
Accounts (i) any security interest which Bank may have or acquire in the Restricted Accounts or Securities Accounts, and (ii) any right which Bank may have or acquire to set off or otherwise apply any Restricted Account Funds or Securities
Account Assets against the payment of any indebtedness from time to time owing to Bank from Company, except for debits to the Restricted Accounts permitted under this Agreement for the payment of Returned Item Amounts, Settlement Item Amounts or
Bank Fees. 

  

	11.	Bankruptcy Notice; Effect of Filing. If Bank at any time receives notice of the commencement of a bankruptcy case or other insolvency or liquidation proceeding
by or against Company (a “Bankruptcy Notice”), Bank will continue to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent that any action required of Bank under this Agreement is prohibited under applicable bankruptcy
laws or regulations or is stayed pursuant to the automatic stay imposed under the United States Bankruptcy Code or by order of any court or agency. With respect to any obligation of Secured Party hereunder which requires prior demand upon Company,
the commencement of a bankruptcy case or other insolvency or liquidation proceeding by or against Company shall automatically eliminate the necessity of such demand upon Company by Bank, and shall immediately entitle Bank to make demand on Secured
Party with the same effect as if demand had been made upon Company and the time for Company’s performance had expired. 

  

	12.	Legal Process, Legal Notices and Court Orders. Bank will comply with any legal process, legal notice or court order it receives if Bank determines in its sole
discretion that the legal process, legal notice or court order is legally binding on it. 

	13.	Indemnification for Following Instructions. Secured Party and Company each agree that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Bank will not be
liable to Secured Party or Company for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims (including, but not limited to, third party claims), demands, obligations, actions, suits, judgments, penalties, costs or expenses, including, but not limited to,
attorneys’ fees, (collectively, “Losses and Liabilities”) suffered or incurred by Secured Party or Company as a result of or in connection with, (a) Bank complying with any binding legal process, legal notice or court order
referred to in Section 12 of this Agreement, (b) Bank following any instruction or request of Secured Party, or (c) Bank complying with its obligations under this Agreement. Company will indemnify Bank against any Losses and
Liabilities Bank may suffer or incur as a result of or in connection with any of the circumstances referred to in clauses (a) through (c) of this Section 13. To the extent not paid by Company within fifteen (15) calendar days
after demand and to the extent not due to Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Secured Party will indemnify Bank against any Losses and Liabilities Bank may suffer or incur as a result of or in connection with any of the circumstances
referred to in clause (b) of this Section 13 such indemnity being limited to the amounts actually received by Secured Party under Section 4 of this Agreement less any reasonable fees and charges. 

 

	14.	No Representations or Warranties of Bank. Bank agrees to perform its obligations under this Agreement in a manner consistent with the quality provided when Bank
performs similar services for its own account. However, Bank will not be responsible for the errors, acts or omissions of others, such as communications carriers, correspondents or clearinghouses through which Bank may perform its obligations under
this Agreement or receive or transmit information in performing its obligations under this Agreement. Secured Party and Company also understand that Bank will not be responsible for any loss, liability or delay caused by wars, failures in
communications networks, labor disputes, legal constraints, fires, power surges or failures, earthquakes, civil disturbances or other events beyond Bank’s control. BANK MAKES NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT
TO THE SERVICE OTHER THAN THOSE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT. 

  

	15.	 Limitation of Liability. Bank will not be responsible for any Losses and Liabilities due to any cause other than its own negligence or breach of
this Agreement, in which case its liability to Secured Party and Company shall, unless otherwise provided by any law which cannot be varied by contract, be limited to direct money damages in an amount not to exceed ten (10) times all the Bank
Fees charged or incurred during the calendar month immediately preceding the calendar month in which such Losses and Liabilities occurred (or, if no Bank Fees were charged or incurred in the preceding month, the Bank Fees charged or incurred in the
month in which the Losses and Liabilities occurred). Company will indemnify Bank against all Losses and Liabilities suffered or incurred by Bank as a result of third party claims; provided, however, that to the extent such Losses and Liabilities are
directly caused by Bank’s negligence or breach of this Agreement such indemnity will only apply to those Losses and Liabilities which exceed the liability limitation specified in the preceding sentence. The limitation of Bank’s liability
and the indemnification by Company set out above will not be applicable to the extent any Losses and Liabilities of any party to this Agreement are directly caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. IN NO EVENT WILL BANK BE
LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS BASED ON CONTRACT OR TORT, WHETHER THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES WAS KNOWN TO BANK AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE CLAIM OR ACTION, INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY CLAIM OR ACTION ALLEGING GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, FAILURE 

	 	
TO EXERCISE REASONABLE CARE OR FAILURE TO ACT IN GOOD FAITH. Any action against Bank by Company or Secured Party under or related to this Agreement must be brought within twelve
(12) months after the cause of action accrues. 

  

	16.	Termination. This Agreement and the Service may be terminated by Secured Party or Bank at any time by either of them giving thirty (30) calendar days prior
written notice of such termination to the other parties to this Agreement at their contact addresses specified after their signatures to this Agreement; provided, however, that this Agreement and the Service may be terminated immediately upon
written notice (i) from Bank to Company and Secured Party should Company or Secured Party fail to make any payment when due to Bank from Company or Secured Party under the terms of this Agreement (ii) from Secured Party to Bank upon
termination or release of Secured Party’s security interest in the Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts. Company’s and Secured Party’s obligation to report errors in funds transfers and bank statements and to pay Returned Items
Amounts, Settlement Item Amounts, and Bank Fees, as well as the indemnifications made, and the limitations on the liability of Bank accepted, by Company and Secured Party under this Agreement will continue after the termination of this Agreement
and/or the closure of the Restricted Accounts and/or Securities Accounts with respect to all the circumstances to which they are applicable existing or occurring before such termination or closure, and any liability of any party to this Agreement,
as determined under the provisions of this Agreement, with respect to acts or omissions of such party prior to such termination or closure will also survive such termination or closure. Upon any termination of this Agreement and the Service or
closure of the Restricted Accounts all available balances in the Restricted Accounts (including proceeds from redemption of all Securities Account Assets) on the date of such termination or closure will be transferred to Secured Party as requested
by Secured Party in writing to Bank. 

  

	17.	Modifications, Amendments, and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified or amended, or any provision thereof waived, except in a writing signed by all the
parties to this Agreement. 

  

	18.	Notices. All notices from one party to another shall be in writing, or be made by a telecommunications device capable of creating a written record, shall be
delivered to Company, Secured Party and/or Bank at their contact addresses specified after their signatures to this Agreement, or any other address of any party notified to the other parties in writing, and shall be effective upon receipt. Any
notice sent by a party to this Agreement to another party shall also be sent to all other parties to this Agreement. Bank is authorized by Company and Secured Party to act on any instructions or notices received by Bank if (a) such instructions
or notices purport to be made in the name of Secured Party, (b) Bank reasonably believes that they are so made, and (c) they do not conflict with the terms of this Agreement as such terms may be amended from time to time, unless such
conflicting instructions or notices are supported by a court order. 

  

	19.	Successors and Assigns. Neither Company nor Secured Party may assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any person or entity without
the prior written consent of Bank, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Bank may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement to any person or entity without the prior written consent of Secured Party,
which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that no such consent will be required if such assignment or transfer takes place as part of a merger, acquisition or corporate reorganization affecting Bank.

  

	20.	 Governing Law. Company and Secured Party understand that Bank’s provision of the Service under this Agreement is subject to federal laws
and regulations. To the extent that such federal 

	 	
laws and regulations are not applicable this Agreement shall be governed by and be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of laws principles.

  

	21.	Severability. To the extent that this Agreement or the Service to be provided under this Agreement are inconsistent with, or prohibited or unenforceable under,
any applicable law or regulation, they will be deemed ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability and be deemed modified and applied in a manner consistent with such law or regulation. Any provision of this Agreement which
is deemed unenforceable or invalid in any jurisdiction shall not affect the enforceability or validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or the same provision in any other jurisdiction. 

 

	22.	Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which shall be an original with the same effect as if the signatures thereto
and hereto were upon the same instrument. 

  

	23.	Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Account Documentation, contains the entire and only agreement among all the parties to this Agreement and
between Bank and Company, and Bank and Secured Party, with respect to (a) the Service, (b) the interest of Secured Party and the Lenders in the Restricted Accounts and Restricted Account Funds, (c) the interest of Secured Party and
the Lenders in the Securities Accounts and Securities Account Assets, and (c) Bank’s obligations to Secured Party and the Lenders in connection with the Restricted Accounts and Securities Accounts. 

 

	24.	Term Facility. Bank and Company acknowledge and agree that Secured Party’s “control” (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of the state whose
law governs this Agreement) hereunder with respect to the Restricted Accounts, the Restricted Account Funds, the Securities Accounts and the Securities Account Assets is also for the benefit of the Term Facility Agent acting for and on behalf of
itself and the secured parties under the Term Facility Guarantee and Collateral Agreement solely to the extent required to perfect their security interest in such collateral. Upon written confirmation by Secured Party that its security interest with
respect to the Restricted Accounts, the Restricted Account Funds, the Securities Accounts and the Securities Account Assets has been released, and if Company and Term Facility Agent confirms in writing to Bank that security interest of the Term
Facility Agent under the Term Facility Guarantee and Collateral Agreement has not been released, Bank and Company agree to enter into an agreement substantially in the form of this Agreement with Term Facility Agent as “Secured Party”.

Substitute Trustee, and their successors and assigns for the uses and purposes set forth, until the Obligations are fully paid and performed, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and the Commitments shall be terminated. 

This Deed of Trust covers present and future advances and re-advances, in the aggregate amount of the obligations secured hereby, made by
the Secured Parties for the benefit of Grantor, and the lien of such future advances and re-advances shall relate back to the date of this Deed of Trust. 
 Terms and Conditions 
 Grantor further represents, warrants, covenants and
agrees with Beneficiary and the Secured Parties as follows: 
 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein (including
in the “Background” and “Granting Clauses” sections above) and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement, and the terms of usage set forth in Section 1.2 of the Credit
Agreement shall apply hereto. References in this Deed of Trust to the “Default Rate” shall mean the interest rate applicable pursuant to Section 2.8(c) of the Credit Agreement. References herein to the “Secured
Parties” shall mean the collective reference to (i) Beneficiary, (ii) the Lenders, (iii) any affiliate of any Lender to which any Obligations are owed, and (iv) the respective successors, indorsees, transferees and
permitted assigns of each of the foregoing. 
 2. Warranty of Title. Grantor warrants that it has good record title in
fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, the Real Estate, and good title to any right, title and interest that Grantor has in and to the rest of the Trust Property, subject (as to the Real Estate) only to the matters that are set forth in
Schedule B of the title insurance policy or policies, if any, being 

 
issued to Beneficiary to insure the lien of this Deed of Trust and any other lien or encumbrance as permitted by Section 6.2 of the Credit Agreement (collectively the “Permitted
Exceptions”). Grantor shall warrant, defend and preserve such title and the lien of this Deed of Trust against all claims of all persons and entities (not including the holders of the Permitted Exceptions). 

3. Payment of Obligations. Grantor shall pay and perform the Obligations at the times and places and in the manner specified in
the Loan Documents. 
 4. Requirements. Grantor shall comply with all covenants, restrictions and conditions now or later
of record which may be applicable to any of the Trust Property, or to the use, manner of use, occupancy, possession, operation, maintenance, alteration, repair or reconstruction of any of the Trust Property, except where a failure to do so could not
reasonably be expected to (i) materially impair Grantor’s ability to conduct its business at the Premises, or (ii) materially and adversely impair the value of the Trust Property (assuming its current use). 

5. Payment of Taxes and Other Impositions, (a) Prior to the date on which any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added
thereto or imposed, Grantor shall pay and discharge all taxes, charges and assessments of every kind and nature, all charges for any easement or agreement maintained for the benefit of any of the Real Estate, all general and special assessments,
levies, permits, inspection and license fees, all water and sewer rents and charges, vault taxes and all other public charges even if unforeseen or extraordinary, imposed upon or assessed against or which may become a lien on any of the Real Estate,
or arising in respect of the occupancy, use or possession thereof, together with any penalties or interest on any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing are collectively referred to herein as the “Impositions”), except where
(i) the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, and (ii) the Grantor has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with, and if required by, GAAP, or except
as would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Upon request by Beneficiary, Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary evidence reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary showing the payment of any such Imposition. If by law any Imposition, at Grantor’s
option, may be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Grantor may elect to pay such Imposition in such installments and shall be responsible for the payment of such installments with
interest, if any, as such installments become due. 
 (b) Nothing herein shall affect any right or remedy of Trustee or
Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust or otherwise, without notice or demand to Grantor, to pay any Imposition if the same is not paid or contested in accordance with Section 5(a) above, and add to the Obligations the amount so paid, together
with interest from the time of payment at the Default Rate. Any sums paid by Beneficiary in discharge of any Impositions shall be (i) a lien on the Premises secured hereby prior to any right or title to, interest in, or claim upon the Premises
subordinate to the lien of this Deed of Trust, and (ii) payable within 30 days following demand by Grantor to Beneficiary together with interest at the Default Rate as set forth above. 

6. Insurance, (a) Grantor shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable companies, such
insurance policies as are required by Section 5.5 of the Credit Agreement. 

 (b) If Grantor is in default of its obligations to insure or deliver any such policy or
policies, then Beneficiary, at its option upon 30 days’ notice to Grantor, may effect such insurance from year to year at rates substantially similar to the rate at which Grantor had insured the Premises, and pay the premium or premiums
therefor, and Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary within 30 days following demand such premium or premiums so paid by Beneficiary with interest from the time of payment at the Default Rate. 

(c) All insurance proceeds paid or payable in connection with any damage or casualty to the Real Estate shall be applied in the manner
specified in the Credit Agreement 
 (d) In the event of foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or other transfer of title to the
Trust Property, all right, title and interest of Grantor in and to any insurance policies then in force shall pass to the purchaser or grantee. 
 7. Restrictions on Liens and Encumbrances. Except for the lien of this Deed of Trust and the Permitted Exceptions or as otherwise may be permitted under the Credit Agreement, Grantor shall not
further encumber the Trust Property nor create or suffer to exist any lien, charge or encumbrance on the Trust Property, or any part thereof, whether superior or subordinate to the lien of this Deed of Trust and whether recourse or non-recourse.

 8. Due on Sale and Other Transfer Restrictions. Except as not prohibited under [Section 6.5] of the Credit Agreement,
Grantor shall not sell, transfer, convey or assign all or any portion of, or any interest in, the Trust Property. 
 9.
Condemnation/Eminent Domain. All awards and proceeds relating to any condemnation of any of the Premises which are not used by Grantor to restore the remaining portion of the Premises shall be deemed Net Cash Proceeds and applied in the
manner specified in the Credit Agreement. 
 10. Leases. Except as not prohibited under the Credit Agreement, Grantor
shall not (a) execute an assignment or pledge of any Lease relating to all or any portion of the Trust Property other than in favor of Beneficiary, or (b) execute or permit to exist any Lease of any of the Trust Property. 

11. Further Assurances. To further assure Beneficiary’s rights under this Deed of Trust, Grantor agrees promptly upon demand
of Beneficiary to do any act or execute any additional documents (including, but not limited to, security agreements on any personalty included or to be included in the Trust Property and a separate assignment of each Lease in recordable form) as
may be reasonably required by Beneficiary to confirm the lien of this Deed of Trust and all other rights or benefits conferred on Beneficiary by this Deed of Trust. 
 12. Beneficiary’s Right to Perform. If Grantor fails to perform any of the covenants or agreements of Grantor, Beneficiary or Trustee, without waiving or releasing Grantor from any obligation
or default under this Deed of Trust, may, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (but shall be under no obligation to) pay or perform the same, and the amount or cost thereof, with interest at the Default
Rate, shall immediately be due from Grantor to Beneficiary or Trustee (as the case may be) and the same shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and shall be an encumbrance on the Trust Property prior to any right, title to, interest in or claim upon
the Trust Property attaching subsequent to the date of this Deed of 

 
Trust. No payment or advance of money by Beneficiary or Trustee under this Section shall be deemed or construed to cure Grantor’s default or waive any right or remedy of Beneficiary or
Trustee. 
 13. Remedies. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Beneficiary
may immediately take such action, without notice or demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Grantor and in and to the Trust Property (it being understood that any such exercise shall be subject to the Intercreditor
Agreement), including, but not limited to, the following actions, each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such manner as Beneficiary may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting
the other rights and remedies of Beneficiary (it being understood that any such exercise shall be subject to the Intercreditor Agreement): 
 (i) Beneficiary may elect to foreclose under power of sale, in which case Beneficiary shall execute and deliver to Trustee written declaration of default and demand for sale and written notice of default
and of election to cause all or any part of the Trust Property to be sold, which notice Trustee shall cause to be filed for record; and after the lapse of such time as may then be required by law following the recordation of such notice of default,
and notice of sale having been given as then required by law, Trustee, without demand on Grantor, shall sell such property at the time and place fixed by it in such notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate parcels and in such order as
Beneficiary may direct (Grantor waiving any right to direct the order of sale), at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States (or cash equivalents acceptable to Trustee to the extent permitted by applicable
law), payable at the time of sale. Trustee may postpone the sale of all or any part of the Trust Property by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time after any such postponement may postpone such sale by public
announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser at such sale its deed conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied, and the recitals in such deed of any
matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including Trustee or Beneficiary, may purchase at such sale, and any bid by Beneficiary may be, in whole or in part in the form of cancellation of all or any part of
the secured Obligations. Trustee shall receive the proceeds of such sale and, after retaining reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Trustee in such proceeding, apply such proceeds to the cost of sale, including, but not limited to, costs
of collection, taxes, assessments, costs of recording, service fees and incidental expenditures, the amount due on the Obligations secured hereby and advancements and other sums expended by the Beneficiary according to the provisions hereof and
otherwise as required by the then existing law relating to foreclosures. If permitted by the then existing law relating foreclosures, the Trustee may sell and convey the Trust Property under the power aforesaid, although the Trustee has been, may
now be or may hereafter be attorney or agent or employee of the Beneficiary with respect to the Obligations or with respect to any matter or business whatsoever. If permitted by the then existing law relating to foreclosures, Trustee may adjourn
from time to time any sale by Trustee to be made under or by virtue of this Deed of Trust by announcement at the time and 

 
place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable provision of law, Trustee, without further notice or publication, except for
any notice or publication as may be required by the then existing law, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be adjourned; 
 (ii) Beneficiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (A) institute and maintain an action of Deed of Trust foreclosure against all or any part of the Trust Property, (B) institute
and maintain an action on the Credit Agreement, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Loan Document, (C) sell all or part of the Trust Property (Grantor expressly granting to Beneficiary the power of sale), or (D) take such
other action at law or in equity for the enforcement of this Deed of Trust or any of the Loan Documents as the law may allow. Beneficiary may proceed in any such action to final judgment and execution thereon for all sums due hereunder, together
with interest thereon at the Default Rate and all costs of suit, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Interest at the Default Rate shall be due on any judgment obtained by Beneficiary from the date of
judgment until actual payment is made of the full amount of the judgment; and 
 (iii) Beneficiary may, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, personally, or by its agents, attorneys and employees and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of the Trust Property or any other collateral as security for the Obligations enter into and upon the Trust
Property and each and every part thereof and exclude Grantor and its agents and employees therefrom without liability for trespass, damage or otherwise (Grantor hereby agreeing to surrender possession of the Trust Property to Beneficiary upon demand
at any such time) and use, operate, manage, maintain and control the Trust Property and every part thereof. Following such entry and taking of possession, Beneficiary shall be entitled, without limitation, (x) to lease all or any part or parts
of the Trust Property for such periods of time and upon such conditions as Beneficiary may, in its reasonable discretion, deem proper, (y) to enforce, cancel or modify any Lease (subject to the terms of any such Lease) and (z) generally to
execute, do and perform any other act, deed, matter or thing concerning the Trust Property as Beneficiary shall deem appropriate as fully as Grantor might do. 
 (b) In case of a foreclosure sale, the Real Estate may be sold, at Beneficiary’s election, in one parcel or in more than one parcel and Beneficiary is specifically empowered (without being required
to do so, and in its sole and absolute discretion) to cause successive sales of portions of the Trust Property to be held. 

(c) It is agreed that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, any and all proceeds of the Trust Property received by
Beneficiary shall be held by Beneficiary for the benefit of the Secured Parties as collateral security for the Obligations (whether matured or unmatured), and shall be applied to payment of the Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 6.3
of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement. 

 14. Right of Beneficiary to Credit Sale. Upon the occurrence of any sale made under
this Deed of Trust, whether made under the power of sale or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, Beneficiary may bid for and acquire the Trust Property or any part thereof. In lieu of paying cash
therefor, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Beneficiary may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Obligations or other sums secured by this Deed of Trust, the net sales price after deducting therefrom the expenses of
sale and the cost of the action and any other sums which Beneficiary is authorized to deduct under this Deed of Trust. In such event, this Deed of Trust, the Credit Agreement, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and documents evidencing
expenditures secured hereby may be presented to the person or persons conducting the sale in order that the amount so used or applied may be credited upon the Obligations as having been paid. 

15. Appointment of Receiver. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Beneficiary as a matter of right and
without notice to Grantor, unless otherwise required by applicable law, and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of the Trust Property or any other collateral or the interest of Grantor therein as security for the Obligations, shall have the
right to apply to any court having jurisdiction to appoint a receiver or receivers or other manager of the Trust Property, without requiring the posting of a surety bond, or the solvency or insolvency of Grantor or any other party obligated for
payment of all or any part of the Obligations, and whether or not waste has occurred with respect to the Trust Property, and Grantor hereby irrevocably consents to such appointment and waives notice of any application therefor (except as may be
required by law). Any such receiver or receivers or manager shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases and all the powers and duties of Beneficiary in case of entry as provided in this Deed of Trust, including,
without limitation and to the extent permitted by law, the right to enter into leases of all or any part of the Trust Property, and shall continue as such and exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of sale of the Trust Property
unless such receivership is sooner terminated. 
 16. Extension, Release, etc. (a) Without affecting the lien or
charge of this Deed of Trust upon any portion of the Trust Property not then or theretofore released as security for the full amount of the Obligations, Beneficiary may, from time to time and without notice except as specifically set forth in the
Credit Agreement, agree to (i) release any person liable for the indebtedness borrowed or guaranteed under the Loan Documents or any other obligation secured by this Deed of Trust, (ii) extend the maturity or alter any of the terms of the
indebtedness borrowed or guaranteed under the Loan Documents or any other obligation secured by this Deed of Trust or any other guaranty thereof, (iii) grant other indulgences, (iv) release or reconvey, or cause to be released or
reconveyed at any time at Beneficiary’s option any parcel, portion or all of the Trust Property, (v) take or release any other or additional security for any obligation herein mentioned, or (vi) make compositions or other arrangements
with debtors in relation thereto. 
 (b) No recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary and no levy of an execution under any
judgment upon the Trust Property or upon any other property of Grantor shall affect the lien of this Deed of Trust or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Beneficiary hereunder, and such liens, rights, powers and remedies shall continue
unimpaired. 
 (c) If Beneficiary shall have the right to foreclose this Deed of Trust or to direct the Trustee to exercise its
power of sale, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Grantor authorizes Beneficiary at its option to foreclose the lien of this Deed of Trust (or direct the sale 

 
of the Trust Property, as the case may be) subject to the rights of any tenants of the Trust Property. The failure to make any such tenants parties defendant to any such foreclosure proceeding
and to foreclose their rights, or to provide notice to such tenants as required in any statutory procedure governing a sale of the Trust Property by Trustee, or to terminate such tenant’s rights in such sale will not be asserted by Grantor as a
defense to any proceeding instituted by Beneficiary to collect the Obligations or to foreclose the lien of this Deed of Trust. 

(d) Unless expressly provided otherwise, in the event that ownership of this Deed of Trust and title to the Trust Property or any estate
therein shall become vested in the same person or entity, this Deed of Trust shall not merge in such title but shall continue as a valid lien on the Trust Property for the amount secured hereby. 

17. Security Agreement under Uniform Commercial Code; Fixture Filing; UCC Filing. (a) It is the intention of the parties
hereto that this Deed of Trust shall constitute a “security agreement” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code (the “Code”) of the State in which the Trust Property is located. If an Event of Default shall occur
and be continuing, then in addition to having any other right or remedy available at law or in equity, Beneficiary shall have the option, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and applicable law, of either (i) proceeding under the
Code and exercising such rights and remedies as may be provided to a secured party by the Code with respect to all or any portion of the Trust Property which is personal property (including, without limitation, taking possession of and selling such
property) or (ii) treating such property as real property and proceeding with respect to both the real and personal property constituting the Trust Property in accordance with Beneficiary’s rights, powers and remedies with respect to the
real property (in which event the default provisions of the Code shall not apply). If Beneficiary shall elect to proceed under the Code, then at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of sale of the personal property shall be deemed
reasonable notice and the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the like incurred by Beneficiary shall include, but not be limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses. At Beneficiary’s
request, Grantor shall assemble the personal property and make it available to Beneficiary at a place designated by Beneficiary which is reasonably convenient to both parties. 
 (b) Certain portions of the Trust Property are or will become “fixtures” (as that term is defined in the Code) on the Land, and this Deed of Trust, upon being filed for record in the real estate
records of the county wherein such fixtures are situated, shall operate also as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing in accordance with the applicable provisions of said Code upon such portions of the Trust Property that are or become
fixtures. The real property to which the fixtures relate is described in Schedule A. The record owner of the Land is Grantor. As of the date hereof, the name, type of organization and jurisdiction of organization of the debtor for purposes of
this financing statement are the name, type of organization and jurisdiction of organization of the Grantor set forth in the first paragraph of this Deed of Trust, and the name of the secured party for purposes of this financing statement is the
name of the Beneficiary set forth in the first paragraph of this Deed of Trust. As of the date hereof, the mailing address of the Grantor/debtor is the address of the Grantor set forth in the first paragraph of this Deed of Trust. As of the date
hereof, the mailing address of the Beneficiary/secured party from which information concerning the security interest hereunder may be obtained is the address of the Beneficiary set forth in the first paragraph of this Deed of Trust. As of the date
hereof, Grantor’s organizational identification number is 2053985. 

 18. Assignment of Rents. (a) Grantor hereby assigns to Beneficiary the Rents as
further security for the payment of and performance of the Obligations, and, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, Grantor grants to Beneficiary the right to enter the Trust Property for the purpose of collecting the same, and to
apply the Rents on account of the Obligations. The foregoing assignment and grant is present and absolute and shall continue in effect until the Obligations are fully paid and performed, but Beneficiary hereby waives the right to enter the Trust
Property for the purpose of collecting the Rents and Grantor shall be entitled to collect, receive, use and retain the Rents until the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; such right of Grantor to collect, receive, use and
retain the Rents may be revoked by Beneficiary upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default by giving not less than 10 days’ written notice of such revocation to Grantor; in the event such notice is given, Grantor
shall pay over to Beneficiary, or to any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, any lease security deposits. Except to the extent provided for in any of the Leases, Grantor shall not accept prepayments or installments of Rent to become due for a
period of more than one month in advance (except for security deposits and estimated payments of percentage rent, if any). 

(b) Grantor has not affirmatively done any act which would prevent Beneficiary from, or limit Beneficiary in, acting under any of the
provisions of the foregoing assignment. 
 19. Additional Rights. The holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed
of trust on the Trust Property shall have no right to terminate any Lease whether or not such Lease is subordinate to this Deed of Trust nor shall Grantor consent to any holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed of trust joining any tenant
under any Lease in any action to foreclose the lien or modify, interfere with, disturb or terminate the rights of any tenant under any Lease. By recordation of this Deed of Trust all subordinate lienholders and the Beneficiary and beneficiaries
under subordinate Deed of Trusts are subject to and notified of this provision, and any action taken by any such lienholder or beneficiary contrary to this provision shall be null and void. Any such application shall not be construed to cure or
waive any Default or Event of Default or invalidate any act taken by Beneficiary on account of such Default or Event of Default. 
 20. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Beneficiary or the Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 9.2 of the Credit Agreement.

 21. No Oral Modification. This Deed of Trust may not be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in
accordance with the provisions of Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement. Any agreement made by Grantor and Beneficiary after the date of this Deed of Trust relating to this Deed of Trust shall be superior to the rights of the holder of any
intervening or subordinate lien or encumbrance, to the extent permitted by applicable law. 
 22. Partial Invalidity. In
the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Deed of Trust shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision
hereof, but each shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included. Notwithstanding to the contrary anything contained in this Deed of Trust or in any provisions of any Loan Document, the obligations
of Grantor and of any other obligor under any Loan Documents shall be subject to the limitation that Beneficiary shall not charge, take or receive, 

 
nor shall Grantor or any other obligor be obligated to pay to Beneficiary, any amounts constituting interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by Beneficiary.

 23. Grantor’s Waiver of Rights. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor waives the benefit of all laws
now existing or that may subsequently be enacted providing for (i) any appraisement before sale of any portion of the Trust Property, (ii) any extension of the time for the enforcement of the collection of the Obligations or the creation
or extension of a period of redemption from any sale made in collecting such debt and (iii) exemption of the Trust Property from attachment, levy or sale under execution or exemption from civil process. To the full extent Grantor may do so,
Grantor agrees that Grantor will not at any time insist upon, plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in force providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, exemption, extension or redemption, or requiring
foreclosure of this Deed of Trust before exercising any other remedy granted hereunder and Grantor, for Grantor and its successors and assigns, and for any and all persons ever claiming any interest in the Trust Property, to the extent permitted by
law, hereby waives and releases all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, notice of election to mature or declare due the whole of the secured indebtedness and marshalling in the event of exercise by Trustee or
Beneficiary of the power of sale or other rights hereby created. 
 24. Remedies Not Exclusive. Beneficiary and Trustee
shall be entitled to enforce payment and performance of the Obligations and to exercise all rights and powers under this Deed of Trust or under any of the other Loan Documents or other agreement or any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding
some or all of the Obligations may now or hereafter be otherwise secured, whether by deed of trust, Deed of Trust, security agreement, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this Deed of Trust nor its enforcement, shall
prejudice or in any manner affect Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s rights to realize upon or enforce any other security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary or Trustee, it being agreed that Beneficiary or Trustee shall be entitled to enforce
this Deed of Trust and any other security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary or Trustee in such order and manner as Beneficiary or Trustee may determine in its absolute discretion. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Trustee or
Beneficiary is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by
statute. Every power or remedy given by any of the Loan Documents to Beneficiary or Trustee or to which either may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by
Beneficiary or Trustee, as the case may be. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, in no event shall Beneficiary, in the exercise of the remedies provided in this Deed of Trust (including, without limitation, in connection with the
assignment of Rents to Beneficiary or Trustee, or the appointment of a receiver and the entry of such receiver on to all or any part of the Trust Property), be deemed a “mortgagee in possession,” and Beneficiary nor Trustee shall not in
any way be made liable for any act, either of commission or omission, in connection with the exercise of such remedies. 
 25.
Multiple Security. If (a) the Premises shall consist of one or more parcels, whether or not contiguous and whether or not located in the same county, or (b) in addition to this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary shall now or hereafter hold
or be the beneficiary of one or more additional mortgages, liens, deeds of trust or other security (directly or indirectly) securing the Obligations 

 
upon other property in the State in which the Premises are located (whether or not such property is owned by Grantor or by others) or (c) both the circumstances described in clauses
(a) and (b) shall be true, then to the fullest extent permitted by law, Beneficiary may, at its election, commence or consolidate in a single trustee’s sale or foreclosure action all trustee’s sale or foreclosure proceedings
against all such collateral securing the Obligations (including the Trust Property), which action may be brought or consolidated in the courts of, or sale conducted in, any county in which any of such collateral is located. Grantor acknowledges that
the right to maintain a consolidated foreclosure action is a specific inducement to Beneficiary to extend the indebtedness borrowed pursuant to or guaranteed by the Loan Documents, and Grantor expressly and irrevocably waives any objections to the
commencement or consolidation of the foreclosure proceedings in a single action and any objections to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens which it may now or hereafter have. Grantor further agrees that if Trustee or
Beneficiary shall be prosecuting one or more foreclosure or other proceedings against a portion of the Trust Property or against any collateral other than the Trust Property, which collateral directly or indirectly secures the Obligations, or if
Beneficiary shall have obtained a judgment of foreclosure and sale or similar judgment against such collateral (or, in the case of a trustee’s sale, to meet the statutory requirements for, any such sale of), then, whether or not such
proceedings are being maintained or judgments were obtained in or outside the State in which the Premises are located, Beneficiary may commence or continue any trustee’s sale or foreclosure proceedings and exercise its other remedies granted in
this Deed of Trust against all or any part of the Trust Property and Grantor waives any objections to the commencement or continuation of a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or exercise of any other remedies hereunder based on such other proceedings
or judgments, and waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay, remove, transfer or consolidate either any action under this Deed of Trust or such other proceedings on such basis. Neither the commencement nor continuation of proceedings to sell the
Trust Property in a trustee’s sale, to foreclose this Deed of Trust, nor the exercise of any other rights hereunder nor the recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary in any such proceedings or the occurrence by the Trustee, of any sale in any
such proceedings shall not prejudice, limit or preclude Beneficiary’s right to commence or continue one or more foreclosure or other proceedings or obtain a judgment against any other collateral (either in or outside the State in which the
Premises are located) which directly or indirectly secures the Obligations, and Grantor expressly waives any objections to the commencement of, continuation of, or entry of a judgment in such other sales or proceedings or exercise of any remedies in
such sales or proceedings based upon any action or judgment connected to this Deed of Trust, and Grantor also waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay, remove, transfer or consolidate either such other sales or proceedings or any sale or action
under this Deed of Trust on such basis. It is expressly understood and agreed that to the fullest extent permitted by law, Beneficiary may, at its election, cause the sale of all collateral which is the subject of a single trustee’s sale or
foreclosure action at either a single sale or at multiple sales conducted simultaneously and take such other measures as are appropriate in order to effect the agreement of the parties to dispose of and administer all collateral securing the
Obligations (directly or indirectly) in the most economical and least time-consuming manner. 
 26. Successors and
Assigns. All covenants of Grantor contained in this Deed of Trust are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Beneficiary and Trustee and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and no other person or entity shall have
standing to require compliance with such covenants or be deemed, under any circumstances, to be a beneficiary of such covenants, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Beneficiary at

 
any time if in the sole discretion of either of them such a waiver is deemed advisable. All such covenants of Grantor shall run with the land and bind Grantor, the successors and assigns of
Grantor (and each of them) and all subsequent owners of the Trust Property, and shall inure to the benefit of Beneficiary and its successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any successor to Trustee appointed by
Beneficiary shall succeed to all rights of Trustee as if such successor had been originally names as Trustee hereunder. The word “Grantor” shall be construed as if it read “Grantors” whenever the sense of this Deed of Trust so
requires and if there shall be more than one Grantor, the obligations of the Grantors shall be joint and several. 
 27. No
Waivers, etc. Any failure by Beneficiary or Trustee to insist upon the strict performance by Grantor of any of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the terms and provisions hereof, and
Beneficiary, notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance by Grantor of any and all of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust to be performed by Grantor. Beneficiary may release,
regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the beneficiary of any subordinate deed of trust or the holder of any subordinate lien on the Trust Property, any part of the security held for the obligations
secured by this Deed of Trust without, as to the remainder of the security, in any way impairing or affecting the lien of this Deed of Trust or the priority of such lien over any subordinate lien or deed of trust. 

28. Governing Law, etc. This Deed of Trust shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the
State in which the Trust Property is located, except that Grantor expressly acknowledges that by their respective terms the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of New York, and for purposes of consistency, Grantor agrees, to the extent permitted under applicable law, that in any in personam proceeding related to this Deed of Trust the rights of the parties to this Deed of Trust shall also be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York governing contracts made and to be performed in that State.

which may become owing by Grantor to the Secured Parties, the parties agree that any payments or repayments of such indebtedness shall be and be deemed to be applied first to the portion of the indebtedness that is not secured hereby, it being the
parties’ intent that the portion of the indebtedness last remaining unpaid shall be secured hereby. If at any time this Deed of Trust shall secure less than all of the principal amount of the Obligations, it is expressly agreed that any
repayments of the principal amount of the Obligations shall not reduce the amount of the lien of this Deed of Trust until the lien amount shall equal the principal amount of the Obligations outstanding. 

32. Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Beneficiary and the Lenders harmless
from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Trust Property or in connection with
any of the transactions contemplated by this Deed of Trust.

with, and permitted by, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

35. Intercreditor Agreement. The terms of this Deed of Trust, any Lien granted to the Beneficiary (for the benefit of the Secured
Parties) pursuant to this Deed of Trust and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Beneficiary hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Deed of Trust
and the Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall supersede the provisions of this Deed of Trust. 
 36. Substitute Trustee. In case of the resignation of the Trustee, or the inability (through death or otherwise), refusal or failure of the Trustee to act, or at the option of Beneficiary or

Trustee. No bond shall ever be required of the Trustee, original or substitute. The recitals in any conveyance made by the Trustee, original or substitute, shall be accepted and construed in court and elsewhere as prima facie evidence and proof of
the facts recited, and no other proof shall be required as to the request by Beneficiary or the Required Lenders to the Trustee to enforce this Deed of Trust, or as to the notice of or holding of the sale, or as to any particulars thereof, or as to

3433, and all rights of Grantor under California Civil Code Section 2822. Beneficiary shall have the right to determine the order in which any portion of the Trust Property is subject to the remedies herein and the order in which the
Obligations are satisfied by proceeds realized by such remedies. Beneficiary shall have the right to determine the order in which any portion of the Trust Property is subject to the remedies herein and the order in which the Obligations are

Section 2924b, a request is hereby made by Grantor that a copy of any notice of default and a copy of any notice of sale under this Deed of Trust be mailed to Grantor at Grantor’s address set forth in the first paragraph of this Deed of
Trust. 
 42. Non-Residential Property. This Deed of Trust does not cover real property principally improved by one or
more structures containing in the aggregate four (4) or less residential dwelling units and at all times constitutes a commercial deed of trust. 
 43. Environmental Default and Remedies. In the event that any portion of the Trust Property is determined to be “environmentally impaired” (as “environmentally impaired” is
defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(3)) or to be an “affected parcel” (as “affected parcel” is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(1)), then, without otherwise
limiting or in any way affecting Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s right sand remedies under this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary may elect to exercise its right under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a) to (1) waive its lien

 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.

 (1) the Term Facility Credit
Agreement, dated as of June 7, 2007 (the “Term Credit Agreement”), among Borrower, the several banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time party thereto (the Term Lenders”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as

the Term Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the “Guarantee and Collateral Agreements”), made by the Borrower and the other Fender Companies in favor of the Revolving Facility Agent;

 (5) the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of June 7, 2007 (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) among the Borrower,
the other Fender Companies, the Term Facility Agent and the Revolving Facility Agent; 
 (6) the Undisclosed (First) Pledge of
Movable Assets, dated as of June 7, 2007 (the “Dutch First Pledge”) between FIC and the Revolving Facility Agent; and 
 (7) the Undisclosed (Second) Pledge of Movable Assets, dated as of June 7, 2007 (the “Dutch Second Pledge” and, together with the Dutch First Pledge, the “Dutch Pledges”) between
FIC and the Revolving Facility Agent. 
 For purposes of this opinion letter, (a) the term “Financing Statements”
means the eight financing statements attached as Exhibits hereto, and (b) the term “Intellectual Property Security Agreements” means the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements, together with the following: (1) the Grant of Security
Interest in Trademark Rights dated as of June 7, 2007, made by the Borrower and by Jackson in favor of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the Administrative Agent for the Lenders parties to the Term Credit Agreement, (2) the Grant of Security

Security Interest in Patent Rights dated as of June 7, 2007, made by the Borrower in favor of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the Administrative Agent for the Lenders parties to the Term Credit Agreement, (4) the Grant of Security Interest

assigned to them in the Credit Agreements. 
 We have examined executed counterparts of the Credit Agreements, the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreements, and the Intellectual Property Security Agreements, and originals or certified, conformed or photographic copies of such corporate records, certificates, and other documents, and such matters of law as we have deemed necessary
or appropriate for purposes of this opinion. 
 Upon the basis of such examination, it is our opinion that: 

1. Each of the Fender Companies is a validly existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware. 

 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 
 The Lenders party to the Credit Agreements 
 Page -3- 

 

 2. Each of the Credit Agreements, the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreements, the Intellectual Property Security Agreements, the Intercreditor Agreement, and the Dutch Pledges has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Fender Company party thereto. 

3. The Credit Agreements and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements each constitute a valid and legally binding
obligation of each Fender Company party thereto enforceable against such Fender Company in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability
relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity. 
 4. The execution and
delivery by each Fender Company of the Credit Agreements, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements, and the Intellectual Property Security Agreements to which such Fender Company is a party, the borrowings in accordance with the terms of the Credit
Agreements, the performance of the payment obligations of each Fender Company thereunder and the granting of the security interests to be granted by each Fender Company pursuant thereto will not result in a violation by such Fender Company of any
United States Federal or New York State statute or the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. 
 5.
The Revolving Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York (the “UCC”) to create in favor of the Revolving Facility Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Facility
Lenders, a security interest (the “Revolving Security Interest”) in each Grantor’s right, title and interest, if any, in the Collateral as defined and described therein (the “Revolving Collateral”) to the extent a security
interest in such Revolving Collateral may be created under the UCC. The Term Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective under the UCC to create in favor of the Term Facility Agent for the benefit of the Term Facility Lenders, a security
interest (the “Term Security Interest”) in each Grantor’s right, title and interest, if any, in the Collateral as defined and described therein (the “Term Collateral”) to the extent a security interest in such Term
Collateral may be created under the UCC. 
 6. Each of the Financing Statements is in appropriate form for
filing in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Upon the filing in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware of each of the Financing Statements relating to the Revolving Security Interest, the Revolving
Security Interest in that portion of the Revolving Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Delaware will be perfected. Upon the filing in the
office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware of each of the Financing Statements relating to the Term Security Interest, the Term Security Interest in that portion of the Term Collateral in which a security interest may be

 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 
 The Lenders party to the Credit Agreements 
 Page -4- 

 

 
perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Delaware will be perfected. 

7. Upon delivery in the State of New York to the Revolving Facility Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders of the
certificates representing the investment property identified on Exhibit F to the Revolving Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (the “Pledged Securities”) in registered form, indorsed in blank by an effective indorsement or accompanied by
undated stock powers with respect thereto duly indorsed in blank by an effective indorsement, the Revolving Facility Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders will have a perfected security interest in the Pledged Securities under the UCC. Upon
delivery in the State of New York to the Term Facility Agent for the benefit of the Term Lenders of the Pledged Securities in registered form, indorsed in blank by an effective indorsement or accompanied by undated stock powers with respect thereto
duly indorsed in blank by an effective indorsement, the Term Facility Agent for the benefit of the Term Lenders will have a perfected security interest in the Pledged Securities under the UCC. Assuming neither the Agents nor any of the Secured
Parties has notice of any adverse claim to the Pledged Securities, the Agents will acquire the security interest in the Pledged Securities free of any adverse claim. 

8. The Revolving Facility Agent will have a perfected security interest in the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes for the
benefit of the Revolving Lenders under the UCC upon the bank with which the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes are maintained agreeing that (i) such bank will comply with instructions originated by the Revolving Facility Agent directing
disposition of the funds in the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes without further consent of the Fender Company which owns the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes, and (ii) such bank’s agreement that the depository bank’s jurisdiction
relating to the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes shall be the State of New York. The Term Facility Agent will have a perfected security interest in the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes for the benefit of the Term Lenders under the UCC upon the bank
with which the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes are maintained agreeing that (i) such bank will comply with instructions originated by the Term Facility Agent directing disposition of the funds in the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes without
further consent of the Fender Company which owns the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes, and (ii) such bank’s agreement that the depository bank’s jurisdiction relating to the Deposit Accounts and Lock Boxes shall be the State of New
York. 
 9. None of the Fender Companies is required to register as an “investment company” under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 10. Assuming the Borrower uses the proceeds received under the
Credit Agreements in accordance with Section 3.16 of each Credit Agreement, 

 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 
 The Lenders party to the Credit Agreements 
 Page -5- 

 

 
such use of proceeds by the Borrowers will not violate Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 

11. The Security Interest in that portion of the Collateral and consisting of copyrights registered with the United
States Copyright Office (with the exception of any such Collateral that has expired, lapsed or been abandoned) that are owned by a Fender Company may be perfected by the proper filing and recordation of the Copyright Security Agreement (with each
such registered copyright identified in the schedules thereto) in the United States Copyright Office using appropriate recordation cover sheets and paying all necessary recordation fees, together with the filing of a financing statement in the
Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. 
 12. The Security Interest in that portion of the
Collateral and consisting of patents issued by, and applications therefor filed with, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (with the exception of any such Collateral that has expired, lapsed or been abandoned) that are owned by a Fender
Company may be perfected by the proper filing and recordation of the Patent Security Agreement (with each such patent and application therefor identified in the schedules thereto) in the United States Patent and Trademark Office using appropriate
recordation cover sheets and paying all necessary recordation fees, together with the filing of a financing statement in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. 

13. The Security Interest in that portion of the Collateral and consisting of trademark and/or service mark registrations
issued by, and applications therefor filed with, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (with the exception of any such Collateral that has expired, lapsed or been abandoned and the further exception of any United States intent-to-use
trademark or service mark application) that are owned by a Fender Company may be perfected by the proper filing and recordation of the Trademark Security Agreement (with each such trademark and/or service mark registration and application therefor
identified in the schedules thereto) in the United States Patent and Trademark Office using appropriate recordation cover sheets and paying all necessary recordation fees, together with the filing of a financing statement in the Office of the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. 
 The foregoing opinions are subject to the following: 

A. The obligations of the Fender Companies and the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements (i) may
be subject to possible limitations upon the exercise of remedial or procedural provisions contained therein, provided that such limitations do not, in our opinion (but subject to the other comments and qualifications set forth in this
opinion) make the remedies and procedures that will be afforded to the Secured Parties inadequate for the practical realization of the substantive benefits purported to be provided to the Secured Parties pursuant to such 

 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 
 The Lenders party to the Credit Agreements 
 Page -6- 

 

 agreement; and (ii) are subject to limitations on the perfection of security interests in proceeds
under UCC Section 9-315. 
 B. We have assumed that none of the Collateral consists, or will consist of “as extracted Collateral”
crops, timber to be cut, consumer goods or farm products and we express no opinion as to any fixtures or goods that are to become fixtures. 

C. Our opinions with respect to the validity and attachment of the grant by the Secured Parties of a security interest in Copyrights and proceeds thereof
is qualified as set forth in this paragraph. Although there is case law supporting the conclusion that Copyrights and proceeds thereof are general intangibles for purposes of the UCC, the law is unclear as to whether a security interest in a
Copyright and proceeds thereof is perfected before the U.S. Copyright Office issues a valid Certificate of Registration for the Copyright and a fully executed document substantially in the form of the Grant of Security Interest in Copyright Rights
included as a schedule to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements and identifying such Copyright has been within one month of its execution in the United States, or within two months of its execution outside the United States, duly recorded in the
U.S. Copyright Office, including with a properly completed “Document Cover Sheet” identifying each work of ownership that is subject of each respective Certificate of Registration by its title and Certificate of Registration number. We
express no opinion with respect to the perfection of any security interest in any Copyright or proceeds thereof unless and until the U.S. Copyright office has issued a valid Certificate of Registration for the Copyright and a related, fully executed
Copyright Security Agreement has been duly recorded as specified above. 
 D. We note that the transfer upon foreclosure of any Trademarks might
be invalid unless accompanied by sufficient assets and goodwill of the business with which the Trademarks are associated, or in the case of certain U.S. trademark and service mark applications, unless accompanied by a transfer of the business, or
the relevant portion thereof, of the applicant. 
 E. We note that certain licenses of Intellectual Property may be found to be unassignable or
otherwise non-transferable even in connection with a bankruptcy or transaction not involving a direct assignment of such license. In addition, licenses of Intellectual Property may, and in the case of certain licenses examined by us under which the
Fender Companies are licensees do, contain provisions which prohibit the granting of security interest, invalidate a lien or terminate the license in the event a lien purports to attach thereto. 

F. We have assumed that the Grantors under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements own (beneficially and of record) all of the Collateral pledged by them
and we express no opinion as the nature or extent of any Grantor’s rights in such Collateral. We note that in connection with Collateral that is comprised of patents, patent applications, and trademarks and/or service mark registrations and
applications issued by or filed with (as applicable) the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and copyrights registered with the United States Copyright Office, any transfer upon 

 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 
 The Lenders party to the Credit Agreements 
 Page -7- 

 

 
foreclosure would require additional filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office, as applicable. We further express no opinion as to the effect of
a filing of security interest documents with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office in the event that the chain of title or other information recorded with such offices is inaccurate or incomplete or in the
event of an error in the recordation of such documents in either such office. 
 G. Shares, notes, contracts, leases and other agreements,
including without limitation, licenses of Intellectual Property may, and in the case of certain licenses examined by us under which the Fender Companies are licensees do, contain provisions which prohibit the granting of a security interest,
invalidate a lien or terminate the license in the event a lien purports to attach thereto. 
 In addition, in rendering the
foregoing opinion we express no opinion with respect to: 
 (i) any provisions of the Credit Agreements or the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreements that (A) prohibit or restrict parties thereto from transferring their respective rights in the Collateral or from creating, attaching, perfecting or enforcing a security interest in such Collateral except as specified
therein, (B) impose a consent requirement on such transfer or pledge, or (C) provide that such transfer or pledge giving rise to a default, breach, right of recoupment, claim, defense, termination, right of termination or remedy may be
unenforceable by virtue of Sections 9-401, 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the UCC; 
 (ii) the validity, binding effect or
enforceability of any provision of the Credit Agreements or the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements that purports to (A) permit the Secured Parties or any other person to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral subject thereto except in
compliance with all applicable laws or (B) to impose on the Secured Parties standards for the care of any Collateral in its possession other than as provided in section 9-207 of the UCC; 

(iii) the ownership, validity, enforceability, registerability, scope or ability to use any Intellectual Property; 

(iv) whether the filing of the documents specified in our opinions above would be effective to perfect a security interest in patents,
patent applications, trademark and service mark registrations and applications, and registered copyrights as against a subsequent purchaser for value without notice; 
 (v) the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any contractual provisions (a) purporting to provide indemnification of any person for any claims, damages, liabilities or expenses resulting
from violation by such person of any applicable securities laws or from the consequences of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such person or (b) to the effect that terms may not be waived or modified except in writing may be limited
under certain circumstances; 

 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 
 The Lenders party to the Credit Agreements 
 Page -8- 

 

 (vi) the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any contractual provisions as
against any person other than the Fender Companies, including, without limitation, any such provisions that establish or purport to establish the priority, seniority or subordination of claims, liens, rights or obligations of any person, whether in
or to collateral, as against any Fender Company or otherwise (including references or any legends to intercreditor, subordination or other similar agreements); and 
 (vii) as contemplated by the qualifications set forth above, we are expressing no opinion as to Federal or state laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium
and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general principles of equity. 

The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are limited to the federal law of the United States, the laws of the State of New York and
the General Corporation Law and Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Delaware, and we are expressing no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction. In connection with the opinions in paragraphs 4 and 5 to the extent the
Delaware UCC is applicable, we have reviewed and relied solely upon the official compilation of the Delaware UCC, Title 6 of the Delaware Code, and our general familiarity with the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in other jurisdictions, and we
have not reviewed, and do not purport to be expert in Delaware commercial law matters more generally. 
 With respect to all
matters of Dutch law, we understand that you have been provided with and are relying upon the opinion, dated the date hereof, of De Brauw Blackstone Westbroek N.V., special Dutch counsel to the Lenders, delivered to you pursuant to
Section 4.1(i)(iii) of the Credit Agreements. 
 We have also relied as to certain matters upon information obtained from
public officials, officers of the Borrower and other sources believed by us to be responsible, and we have assumed that the signatures on all documents examined by us are genuine, that each of the Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreements)
has been duly authorized by each party thereto other than the Fender Companies and has been duly executed and delivered by each such other party thereto and assumptions which we have not independently verified.

 This opinion is provided to the addressees as of the date hereof and is exclusively for
their benefit as Lenders and their permitted assigns under the Credit Agreements as of the date hereof and may not be used or relied upon by any other persons.

 To the Agents and the Lenders 
 identified below: 

Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 We have
acted as counsel to Fender Musical Instruments Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), in connection with (a) the Term Facility Credit Agreement dated as of June 7, 2007 (the “Term Credit
Agreement”), among the Borrower, the lending institutions party thereto (each a “Term Lender” and, collectively, the “Term Lenders”), Goldman Sachs Credit Partners, L.P., as Syndication Agent and JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the “Term Agent”), and (b) the Revolving Facility Credit Agreement dated as of June 7, 2007 (the “Revolving Credit
Agreement” and, together with the Term Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”), among the Borrower, the lending institutions party thereto (each a “Revolving Lender” and, collectively, the
“Revolving Lenders” and, together with the Term Lenders, the “Lenders”), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Revolving Lenders (the “Revolver Agent” and, together with the
Term Agent, the “Agents”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Term Credit Agreement. 

As such counsel and for purposes of our opinions set forth below, we have examined executed counterparts of the Credit Agreements and
originals or certified, conformed or photographic copies of such corporate records, certificates, and other documents, and such matters of law as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion, including: 

 

	 	(i)	the Credit Agreements; 

  

	 	(ii)	a Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents, and Fixture Filing (the “Term Deed of Trust”), given by Borrower as grantor, to

	 	(iii)	a Deed of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents, and Fixture Filing (the “Revolver Deed of Trust” and, together with the Term Deed
of Trust, the “Deeds of Trust”), given by Borrower as grantor, to Lawyers Title Insurance Company, as trustee, for the benefit of Revolver Agent, as beneficiary, to be recorded in the County Recording Office.

 The Credit Agreements and the Deeds of Trust are referred to herein, individually, as a “Loan
Document” and, collectively, as the “Loan Documents.” As used herein, “California Collateral” means, collectively, that portion of the collateral constituting an interest in real property and included
within the meaning of Trust Property as defined in the Deeds of Trust. 
 In such examination and in rendering the opinions
expressed below, we have assumed: (i) the due authorization, execution and delivery of each Loan Document, and each other document referred to above by all of the parties thereto (other than the due authorization, execution and delivery of the
Loan Documents by the Borrower); (ii) the genuineness of all signatures on all documents submitted to us; (iii) the authenticity and completeness of all documents, corporate records, certificates and other instruments reviewed by us;
(iv) that photocopy, electronic, certified, conformed, facsimile and other copies of original documents, corporate records, certificates and other instruments reviewed by us conform to such original documents, records, certificates and other
instruments; (v) the legal capacity of all individuals executing documents; (vi) that the Loan Documents are the valid and binding obligations of each of the parties thereto (other than the Borrower) under New York law (or California law,
in the case of the Deed of Trust), enforceable against such parties (other than the Borrower) under New York law (or California law, in the case of the Deed of Trust) in accordance with their respective terms and have not been amended or terminated
orally or in writing except as disclosed to us; (vii) that the statements contained in the certificates and comparable documents of public officials, officers and representatives of the Borrower and other Persons on which we have relied for the
purposes of this opinion are true and correct on and as of the date hereof; (viii) that the description in the Loan Documents of real property or interests therein is accurate and legally sufficient to enable a subsequent purchaser to identify
each such property or interest, (ix) that legal, beneficial and record title to the California Collateral is, and at all times relevant to this opinion will be, vested solely in the Borrower, and (x) that the rights and remedies set forth
in the Loan Documents will be exercised reasonably and in good faith and were granted without fraud or duress and for good, valuable and adequate consideration and without intent to hinder, delay or defeat any rights of any creditors or stockholders
of, or other holders of equity interests in, the Borrower. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied (without investigation, except as expressly indicated herein) upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and
representatives of the Borrower and upon the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Credit Agreements and other Loan Documents.

 Upon the basis of our examination and the foregoing, and subject to the limitations,
qualifications and exceptions set forth herein, it is our opinion that: 
 1. The Borrower has taken all necessary corporate
action on its part to be taken in order to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and has duly executed and delivered each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. 

2. Each of the Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable
against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general principles
of equity. 
 3. The Term Deed of Trust is in proper form for recording in the County Recording Office, complies as to form with
California statutory requirements for recording in the County Recording Office and complies as to form with California statutory requirements for a financing statement filed as a fixture filing. The Term Deed of Trust is in appropriate form to
create a lien on the real property and Fixtures owned by the Borrower as described therein and, upon the making of the Loan, will create in favor of the Term Agent a valid and binding lien under California real property law on the real property
described in the Deed of Trust, and, when duly recorded in the County Recording Office, the Deed of Trust will constitute a perfected lien under California real property law on the real property described in the Deed of Trust; provided,
however, that no opinion is rendered herein as to the priority of any such lien. No re-filing or re-recording of the Term Deed of Trust is necessary to maintain its effectiveness or priority, except that, pursuant to California Civil Code
Section 882.020, the lien of such an instrument expires at and is not enforceable after the later of: (i) ten years after the maturity date or last date fixed for payment of the debt or performance of the secured obligation, if that date
is ascertainable from the record, or (ii) if not so ascertainable, sixty years after the date the instrument was recorded, or (iii) if a notice of intent to preserve the lien or encumbrance is recorded prior to its expiration, pursuant to
California Civil Code Section 880.310 et seq., ten years after the date that the notice of intent is recorded unless the time of expiration is again similarly extended. 

4. The Revolving Deed of Trust is in proper form for recording in the County Recording Office, complies as to form with California
statutory requirements for recording in the County Recording Office and complies as to form with California statutory requirements for a financing statement filed as a fixture filing. The Revolving Deed of Trust is in appropriate form to create a
lien on the real property and Fixtures owned by the Borrower as described therein and, upon the making of the Loan, will create in favor of the Revolving Agent a valid and binding lien under California real property law on the real property
described in the Deed of Trust, and, when duly recorded in the County Recording Office, the Deed of Trust will constitute a perfected lien under 

 To the Agent and Lenders 
 June 7, 2007 
 4 

 

 
California real property law on the real property described in the Deed of Trust; provided, however, that no opinion is rendered herein as to the priority of any such lien. No
refiling or re-recording of the Deed of Trust is necessary to maintain its effectiveness or priority, except that, pursuant to California Civil Code Section 882.020, the lien of such an instrument expires at and is not enforceable after the
later of: (i) ten years after the maturity date or last date fixed for payment of the debt or performance of the secured obligation, if that date is ascertainable from the record, or (ii) if not so ascertainable, sixty years after the date
the instrument was recorded, or (iii) if a notice of intent to preserve the lien or encumbrance is recorded prior to its expiration, pursuant to California Civil Code Section 880.310 et seq., ten years after the date that the notice
of intent is recorded unless the time of expiration is again similarly extended. 
 5. Other than recording fees and charges
required to be paid upon the recordation of each Deed of Trust in the County Recording Office, no mortgage tax or filing fee is required to be paid in the State of California, the County, or any political subdivision thereof as a consequence of the
execution, delivery, filing or recording of either Deed of Trust. We express no opinion, however, with respect to any income, franchise, sales, withholding, real or personal property, business license or other tax that may result from the
transaction provided for in the Loan Documents or the performance of the obligations created thereby. 
 6. Other than the
payment of the recording fees and charges required to be paid upon the recordation of each Deed of Trust in the County Recording Office, the recording of such Deed of Trust with the County Recording Office and the proper indexing of such Deed of
Trust by the County Recording Office, no further action, recordation or public filing is required as a matter of California law to establish of record the rights of the parties as against the California Collateral as of the date of recording.

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

A. We express no opinion with respect to any of the following (collectively, the “Excluded Laws”): (i) anti-fraud
laws or other federal and state securities laws; (ii) Federal Reserve Board margin regulations; (iii) pension and employee benefit laws, e.g., ERISA; (iv) federal and state antitrust and unfair competition laws; (v) the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the Exon-Florio Act; (vi) the statutes, ordinances, administrative decisions and rules and regulations of counties, towns, municipalities and other political subdivisions (whether
created or enabled through legislative action at the federal, state or regional level); (vii) federal and state environmental laws; (viii) federal and state land use and subdivision laws; (ix) federal and state tax laws;
(x) federal and state laws relating to communications (including, without limitation, the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and the 

 To the Agent and Lenders 
 June 7, 2007

Telecommunications Act of 1996, as amended); (xi) federal patent, copyright and trademark, state trademark and other federal and state intellectual property laws; (xii) federal and
state racketeering laws, e.g., RICO; (xiii) federal and state health care laws and federal and state safety laws, e.g., OSHA; (xiv) federal and state laws concerning aviation, vessels, railway or other transportation
equipment or matters; (xv) federal and state laws concerning public utilities; (xvi) federal and state labor laws; (xvii) federal and state laws and policies concerning (A) national and local emergencies, (B) possible judicial
deference to acts of sovereign states including judicial acts, and (C) criminal and civil forfeiture laws; (xviii) federal and state banking and insurance laws; (xix) export, import and customs laws; (xx) the Anti-Terrorism Order, as
amended, and all federal, state and local laws, statutes, ordinances, orders, governmental rules, regulations, licensing requirements and policies relating to the Anti-Terrorism Order (including without limitation the Executive Order of
September 23, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit and Threaten to Commit or Support Terrorism); (xxi) the USA Patriot Improvement and Reauthorization Act of 2005, its successor statutes and similar
statutes in effect from time to time and the policies promulgated thereunder and any foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department or any enabling legislation or order relating thereto; and (xxii) other federal and
state statutes of general application to the extent they provide for criminal prosecution (e.g., mail fraud and wire fraud statutes); and in the case of each of the foregoing, all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or administrative
or judicial decisions with respect thereto. 
 B. We express no opinion with respect to (i) the truth of the factual
representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents, (ii) the effect of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York which limits the rates of interest legally chargeable or collectible, or (iii) any document or
agreement other than the Loan Documents regardless of whether such document or agreement is referred to in the Loan Documents. 

C. We express no opinion as to the efficacy of any statements or provisions in the Loan Documents which purport to be agreements by the
parties but which are, in effect, conclusions regarding the legal characterization of certain statements or provisions in the Loan Documents or certain factual situations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we express no opinion as to
any provisions in the Loan Documents (1) with respect to the circumstances under which Lender might be considered to be a “mortgagee in possession” of the real property described in either Deed of Trust, or (2) with respect to whether the
Loan Documents are to be construed for or against a particular party, or (3) that no merger of any fee title or leasehold interest in the real property described in either Deed of Trust shall occur except with Lender’s consent. 

D. We express no opinion with respect to the effect which the introduction of extrinsic evidence as to the meaning of any Loan Document
may have on the enforceability thereof. 

 To the Agent and Lenders 
 June 7, 2007

 E. We express no opinion as to the effect on our opinions regarding the Loan Documents
arising out of the status or activities of, or laws applicable to, the Agents, the Lenders or any other party, if any, to the Loan Documents (other than the Borrower), and, without limiting the foregoing, we are not expressing any opinion as to the
effect of compliance or non-compliance by such parties with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents because of the nature of any of their businesses. 

F. Our opinion set forth in opinion paragraph 2 above is subject to (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally; (ii) the effect of public policy considerations, statutes or court decisions which may limit rights to obtain
exculpation, indemnification or contribution (including, without limitation, indemnification regarding violations of the securities laws and indemnification for losses resulting from a judgment for the payment of any amount other than in United
States dollars); (iii) the effect of general principles of equity (including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing) and the availability of equitable remedies (including, without limitation,
specific performance and equitable relief), regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law; and (iv) the effect of certain laws and judicial decisions which may render unenforceable in whole or in part certain rights and
remedies provided in each Deed of Trust (including any thereof which conflict with, are rendered ineffective by or are not permitted under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction, or are in conflict with
any other laws governing foreclosure and disposition procedures or limitations on attorneys’ or trustee fees), but the inclusion of such rights and remedies in the Term Deed of Trust or the Revolving Deed of Trust, as applicable, does not
affect the validity of such Deed of Trust, or render such Deed of Trust inadequate for the practical realization of the security interests and liens afforded thereby, upon a material default by the Borrower in the payment of principal or interest as
provided in the Term Credit Agreement or in the Revolving Credit Agreement, as applicable. 
 G. No opinion is expressed herein
with respect to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of (i) any provision contained in the Loan Documents allowing any party to exercise any remedial rights without notice to the Borrower, (ii) any waiver of demand or notice by
the Borrower, or any waiver of any rights or any defense which as a matter of law or public policy cannot be waived, (iii) any provision contained in the Loan Documents purporting to prohibit, restrict or condition the assignment of any
agreement to the extent the same is rendered ineffective by Sections 9-406 through 9-409 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in a relevant jurisdiction, (iv) any provision contained in the Loan Documents purporting to establish
evidentiary standards, (v) any provision of the Loan Documents which purports to establish the subject matter jurisdiction of the United States District Court to adjudicate any controversy related to any of the Loan Documents, (vi) any
provision of the Loan Documents which purports to 

 To the Agent and Lenders 
 June 7, 2007 
 7 

 

 
entitle any Agent, any Lender or any other Person to specific performance of any provision thereof, (vii) any provision of the Loan Documents which requires a Person to cause another Person
to take or to refrain from taking action under circumstances in which such Person does not control such other Person, (viii) any provision of the Loan Documents providing for the effectiveness of service of process by mail in any suit, action
or proceeding of any nature arising in connection with or in any way relating to any Loan Document, (ix) any provision of the Loan Documents that requires waivers or amendments to be in writing insofar as such provision suggests that oral or
other modifications, amendments or waivers could not be effectively agreed upon by the parties or that the doctrine of promissory estoppel might not apply; (x) any provision of the Loan Documents that states that rights or remedies are not
exclusive, that every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in addition to any other right or remedy, that the election of some particular remedy does not preclude recourse to one or more others or that failure to exercise or delay in
exercising rights or remedies will not operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy; (xi) any liquidated damage or other provision of the Loan Documents that imposes (or is deemed or construed to impose) a penalty or forfeiture,
(xii) any provision of the Loan Documents that appoints one party as an attorney-in-fact for an adverse party; (xiii) any provision of the Loan Documents that purports to limit the liability of any party thereto to third parties, (xiv) any
provision of the Loan Documents that purports to waive a right to a jury trial in a judicial proceeding, (xv) any provision of the Loan Documents that states that time is of the essence; or (xvi) any provision of the Loan Documents insofar as it
purports to effect a choice of governing law or choice of forum for the adjudication of disputes. 
 H. We have assumed, with
your permission, that (a) each Lender is (i) a bank incorporated or organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state of the United States of America, within the meaning of Section 1 of Article XV of the California
Constitution and Section 3805 of the California Financial Code, (ii) a foreign (other nation) bank under, and with the characteristics set forth in, Section 1716 of the California Financial Code, (iii) a finance lender duly
licensed under the California Finance Lenders Law, Section 22000 et seq. of the California Financial Code, or (iv) a “subsidiary of a bank holding company which is not a bank,” within the meaning of Section 3707 of the
California Financial Code; (b) all loans and other credit facilities under the Loan Agreement will be made by the Lenders for their own account or for the account of another person or entity that qualifies for an exemption from the interest
rate limitations of California law; and (c) there is no present agreement on the part of any of the Lenders to sell participations or any other interest in the loans or other credit facilities to be made under the Loan Agreement to any person
or entity other than a person or entity that also qualifies for an exemption from the interest rate limitations of California law. 
 I. Section 1717 of the California Civil Code provides that, in any action on a contract where the contract specifically provides that attorney’s fees and costs incurred to enforce that contract
shall be awarded either to one of the parties or to the prevailing 

 To the Agent and Lenders 
 June 7, 2007 
 8 

 

 
party, then the party that is determined to be the party prevailing in the action, whether that party is the party specified in the contract or not, shall be entitled to reasonable
attorneys’ fees in addition to other costs. 
 J. Our opinions are limited solely to laws and regulations (other than the
Excluded Laws) which in our experience are generally applicable to transactions in the nature of those contemplated by the Loan Documents between unregulated parties. Without limitation of the foregoing qualifications stated in this paragraph J, we
express no opinion with respect to any matter pertaining to the construction, installation or operation of any property or assets. 
 K. We express no opinion with respect to (a) the right, title or interest of any Loan Party in or to any real or personal property, (b) the priority of any lien, security interest or other
encumbrance, or (c) any provision of the Loan Documents purporting to encumber after-acquired real property or interests therein. 
 L. We express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any contractual provisions as against any person other than the Borrower, including, without limitation, any such
provisions that establish or purport to establish the priority, seniority or subordination of claims, liens, rights or obligations of any person, whether in or to collateral, as against the Borrower or otherwise (including references or any legends
to intercreditor, subordination or other similar agreements). 
 M. We express no opinion as to the validity or enforceability
of any provision of any Loan Document that: (i) requires a borrower to provide hazard insurance coverage against risks in an amount exceeding the replacement value of any improvements to real property, (ii) imposes requirements respecting
impound accounts in conflict with applicable law, (iii) provides for the application of insurance or condemnation proceeds to reduce indebtedness in conflict with applicable law, (iv) purports to assign rents, issues and profits absolutely
and not as security, (v) contains a waiver of any party’s statutory right to reinstate a secured obligation by paying the delinquent amounts of the fully accelerated debt at any time prior to the time provided by statute,
(vi) purports to allow any Lender or any Agent to pursue a foreclosure of the California Collateral other than in accordance with California state law, (vii) indemnifies any party against its own negligence or willful misconduct,
(viii) conflicts with the provisions of California law relating to real property antideficiency, fair value and one form of action rules, (ix) provide for the acceleration of any indebtedness upon any transfer or further encumbrance of any
of the collateral for any loan, or upon a change of ownership of any entity which directly or indirectly owns any interest in any such collateral, except to the extent that (A) such provisions are made enforceable pursuant to the federal
preemption afforded by the Garn-St. Germain Depository Institutions Act of 1982, as set forth at 12 U.S.C. Section 1701j-3 and the regulations adopted pursuant thereto or (B) enforcement is reasonably necessary to protect against
impairment of the lender’s security or an increase in the risk of default, (ix) provide for penalties, liquidated damages, acceleration 

 To the Agent and Lenders 
 June 7, 2007 
 9 

 

 
of future amounts due (other than principal) without appropriate discount to present value, late charges, prepayment charges and increased interest rates upon default, (x) provide that time
is of the essence, or (xi) provide for confession of judgment. 
 N. Under California law certain remedies, waivers and
other provisions of the Loan Documents may not be enforceable; nevertheless, subject to the limitations and qualifications expressed elsewhere in this opinion letter, upon a material default by the Borrower in the payment of principal or interest
thereon as provided, in the case of the Term Loan, the Term Credit Agreement or Term Deed of Trust, or, in the case of the Revolving Loan, the Revolving Credit Agreement or Revolving Deed of Trust, such unenforceability will not preclude
(i) the acceleration of the obligation of the Borrower to repay such principal and interest, and (ii) the foreclosure in accordance with California law of the security interest in the California Collateral secured by the applicable Deed of
Trust. 
 O. We advise you that the only method clearly established under California law for enforcement of an assignment of
rents is by appointment of a receiver by a court in an action for specific performance of the provisions of the Deed of Trust providing for the assignment of rents. The appointment of a receiver in the State of California requires a proceeding in
equity. An action to enforce an assignment of rents provision in a deed of trust would likely be brought under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 564(b)(11), which authorizes the appointment of a receiver “in an action by a secured
lender for specific performance of an assignment of rents provision in a deed of trust, mortgage or separate assignment document” The appointment of a receiver under Section 564(b)(l1) is a discretionary decision of the court and a
creditor is not entitled to the appointment of a receiver as a matter of right. 
 P. In furtherance of the limitations set
forth above, we advise you of the following provisions of California law: 
 (i) Section 726 of the California Code Civil
Procedure provides that any action to recover on a debt or other right secured by a mortgage or a deed of trust on real property must comply with the requirements of that section, which requirements relate to and specify the procedures for the sale
of encumbered property, the application of proceeds, the rendition in certain cases of a deficiency judgment and other related matters. We advise you that in such an action or proceeding, the debtor may require the creditor to exhaust all of its
security before a personal judgment may be obtained against the debtor for a deficiency. We also advise you that failure to comply with the provisions of Section 726 (including an attempt to exercise a right to set off with respect to any funds
of any Loan Party that may be deposited with you from time to time and with respect to which you do not hold a perfected security interest) may result in the loss of your lien on the real property collateral and the loss of your right to a
deficiency judgment. See, e.g., Walker v. Community Bank, 10 Cal. 3d 729, 518 P.2d 329, 111 Cal. Rptr. 897 (1974); Security Pacific National Bank v. Wozab, 51 Cal. 3d 991, 800 P.2d 557,

 To the Agent and Lenders 
 June 7, 2007 
 10 

 

 
275 Cal. Rptr. 201 (1990). For example, in Security Pacific National Bank v. Wozab, supra, the lender was held to have lost its lien on real property security by exercising a right of
setoff with respect to funds of the borrower deposited with the lender and as to which the lender did not have a security interest. We further advise you that both the recovery of a judgment in an action on a note and a creditor’s securing a
pre-judgment writ of attachment on assets in another jurisdiction have been held to release the mortgage lien on California realty. Ould v. Stoddard, 54 Cal. 613 (1880); Shin v. Superior Court, 26 Cal. App. 4th 542 (1994). 

(ii) Section 580a of the California Code of Civil Procedure provides that a creditor to whom a deed of trust or mortgage on real
property or any interest therein was given may not seek a money judgment upon the secured obligation after sale of the encumbered property by power of sale unless such action for a money judgment is brought within three months after the date of sale
and is limited to a deficiency judgment based on the greater of the amount for which the property was sold or the fair market value of the property at the time of sale (as determined by a probate referee). A money judgment could not be sought by the
creditor which held the non-judicial foreclosure sale under its deed of trust or mortgage as a deficiency action by the foreclosing creditor would be prohibited in any event by Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure (discussed
below). However, Section 580a has been held to apply to a sold-out junior lienholder which purchased its former security by bidding at a trustee’s sale conducted under the senior deed of trust (see, e.g., Walter E. Heller Western, Inc.
v. Bloxham, 176 Cal. App. 3d 266, 221 Cal. Rptr. 425 (1985). 
 (iii) Section 580d of the California Code of Civil
Procedure provides that no deficiency judgment shall be rendered upon a note secured by a deed of trust or mortgage on real property after sale of the real property under the power of sale contained in such deed of trust or mortgage. 

(iv) Section 2924c of the California Civil Code provides that whenever the maturity of an obligation secured by a deed of trust or
mortgage on real property is accelerated by reason of a default in the payment of interest or in the payment of any installment of principal or other sums secured thereby, or by reason of failure of the trustor or mortgagor to pay taxes, assessments
or insurance premiums, the trustor or mortgagor and certain other specified persons (including any junior or subordinate lienholders) have the right, to be exercised at any time within the reinstatement period described in such section, to cure such
default by paying the entire amount then due (including certain reasonable costs and expenses incurred in enforcing such obligations but excluding any principal amount that would not then be due had no default occurred) and thereby cure the default
and reinstate such deed of trust or mortgage and the obligations secured thereby to the same effect as if no acceleration had occurred. If the power of sale in the deed of trust or mortgage is not exercised, such reinstatement right may be exercised
at any time prior to entry of the decree of foreclosure. 

 To the Agent and Lenders 
 June 7, 2007 
 11 

 

 (v) Section 726.5 of the California Code of Civil Procedure authorizes, under
certain circumstances, a real estate-secured commercial lender to waive its lien against a parcel of “environmentally impaired” security (as therein defined) and sue the borrower without foreclosing on the real property collateral for the
loan. 
 (vi) Section 736 of the California Code of Civil Procedure permits a lender, under certain circumstances, to sue
for breach of contract relating to any “environmental provisions” (as therein defined) concerning real property security without foreclosing on the real property security or in an action brought following foreclosure, whether judicial or
non-judicial. 
 (vii) Enforceability as it relates to personal property is subject to the effect of the Uniform Commercial
Code as in effect in the State of California (the “California UCC”) and the provisions of California law governing the creation, perfection and enforcement of security interests in personal property and fixtures, including, but not
limited to, the unenforceability, under certain circumstances, of provisions permitting a secured party to determine the terms and manner of the disposition of such collateral, where such terms and manner of disposition may not be commercially
reasonable. We express no opinion concerning the creation, attachment, perfection or enforceability of any security interest or lien in or on any personal property collateral described in the Deeds of Trust. 

Q. The California Supreme Court has ruled that an express pre-dispute waiver of a jury trial is not enforceable. Accordingly, we express
no opinion as to the legal validity or enforceability of any provisions in the Deeds of Trust which purport to provide for a pre-dispute waiver of a jury trial waiver. Grafton Partners LP v. The Superior Court of Alameda County, 36 Cal. 4th
944 (2005). 
 R. We express no opinion herein as to the valid and binding obligations of the Borrower or the enforceability of
such obligations against the Borrower, (i) under California law with respect to any of the New York Loan Documents, or (ii) under New York law with respect to the Deeds of Trust. 

S. We advise you that the enforceability of waivers of the following may be limited on statutory or public policy grounds:
(i) broadly or vaguely stated rights, (ii) the benefits of statutory, regulatory or constitutional rights, (iii) unknown future defenses, or (iv) rights to damages. 

T. No opinion is expressed herein with respect to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of (i) any provision of the Loan
Documents which purports to change or waive rules of evidence, or fix the method or quantum of proof to be applied in litigation or other adversarial proceedings; (ii) any provision of the Loan Documents purporting to effect a confession of
judgment (in this regard, we draw your attention to the procedural 

 To the Agent and Lenders 
 June 7, 2007 
 12 

 

 
requirements therefor contained in California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1132 through 1134 and successor provisions); and (iii) any provision of the Loan Documents relating to the
appointment of receivers (including any provision purporting to effect the pre-default consent by any Loan Party to any such appointment). 
 U. California statutes and case law impose limitations on waivers of statutes of limitation including those by agreement. 
 V. We express no opinion as to the validity or enforceability of any intercreditor agreement as among the Agents or the Lenders or as to the priority of their interests as against one another or as
against other creditors of the Borrower. 
 Without limiting any of the other limitations, exceptions and qualifications stated
elsewhere herein (including, without limitation, qualification paragraph A with respect to Excluded Laws), we express no opinion with regard to any law other than (i) the internal laws of the State of New York and California, as applicable and
(ii) to the extent set forth in opinion paragraph 1 above with respect to the Borrower, the Delaware General Corporation Law (based solely upon our review of a standard compilation thereof). 

This opinion letter deals only with the specified legal issues expressly addressed herein, and you should not infer any opinion that is
not explicitly addressed herein from any matter stated in this letter. 
 This opinion is rendered solely to you in connection
with the above matter. This opinion may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose or relied upon by any other Person without our prior written consent, other than we hereby consent to reliance upon the terms and conditions specified herein by
future assignees of your interest under the Term Credit Agreement or the Revolving Credit Agreement pursuant to an assignment that is made and consented to under the applicable Credit Agreement, on the condition and express understanding and
agreement that (i) this opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof, (ii) we have no responsibility or obligation to consider its applicability or correctness to any such assignee, and (iii) any such reliance by a future assignee
must be actual and reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time of assignment, including any changes in law, facts or any other developments known to or reasonably knowable by the assignee at such time.

been reissued or updated by any subsequent delivery of a copy hereof. Further, we do not undertake to and will not be required to advise you or any other Person with regard to any change after the date hereof in the circumstances or law that may

I, or an attorney or attorneys under my general supervision, have also examined such corporate records of the Fender Companies,
certificates of public officials and of officers of the Fender Companies and agreements, instruments and other documents as I have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. As to questions of fact material to such opinions, I or
such attorneys have, when relevant facts were not independently established by me or by them, relied upon representations or certificates of the Fender Companies or their officers or public officials. I have assumed (i) the due execution and
delivery, pursuant to due authorization, of the Agreements by all parties thereto other than FMIC, (ii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, (iii) the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to me
as copies and (iv) the genuineness of all signatures (other than those of the Fender Companies). 
 I, or an attorney or
attorneys under my general supervision, have made such examination of law as in my or their judgment is necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion. 
 Based on the foregoing and subject to the limitations stated herein, I am of the opinion that as of the date set forth above: 
 1. The execution and delivery by each Fender Company of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, its borrowings in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, performance of its payment obligations
thereunder and granting of the security interests to be granted by it pursuant to Security Documents (a) will not result in any violation of (1) the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of such Fender Company, (2) any order known
to me issued by any court or governmental agency or body to which such Credit Party is subject, (b) to my knowledge will not result in a default under the terms of any material lease, indenture, agreement or instrument to which such Fender
Company is a party and (c) to my knowledge will not result in, or require the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of the properties owned by, or revenues of, any Fender Company, pursuant to any Requirement of Law or material lease,
indenture, agreement or instrument to which such Fender Company is a party (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents), in each case, except as would not reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 

 

 

 
  

  
 2. Each of the Fender Companies has the power and authority, and the
legal right to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, except to the extent that any such failure would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

 3. To my knowledge and other than as identified in the Agreements, there is no action, suit or proceeding now pending before
or by any court, arbitrator or governmental agency, body or official to which any Fender Company is a party or to which the business, assets or property of any Fender Company is subject, and no such action, suit or proceeding is threatened to which
any Fender Company would be a party or to which the business, assets or property of any Fender Company would be subject, that in either case questions the validity of the Loan Documents, in each case, except as would not reasonably be expected to
constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

	3.7	In this opinion: 

 “Assets
Deeds of Pledge” means the First Assets Deed of Pledge Agreement and the Second Assets Deed of Pledge, each an “Assets Deed of Pledge”, 
 “Assets Pledges” means the First Assets Pledge and the Second Assets Pledge, each an “Assets Pledge”. 
  

	4	Assumptions 

 For the purpose of
this opinion, I have made the following assumptions: 
  

	4.1	All copy documents conform to the originals and all originals are genuine and complete. 

 

	4.2	Each signature is the genuine signature of the Individual concerned. 

  

	4.3	Each Assets Deed of Pledge is within the capacity and powers of, and has been validly authorised and entered into by each party. 

 

	4.4	Each Assets Deed of Pledge has been or will have been registered with the competent Dutch tax authorities. 

 

	4.5	The obligations secured by each Assets Pledge: 

  

	 	(a)	are obligations to pay an amount of money within the meaning of Section 3:227 subsection 1 Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetbook, “CC”):

  

	 	(b)	are sufficiently identifiable (voldoende bepealbaar) within the meaning of Section 3:231 subsection 2 CC; and 

 

	 	(c)	shall not be modified in any material way. 

  

	4.6	Each Asset is or, where future Assets are concerned, will be: 

  

	 	(a)	an Independent (zelfstandig) movable object and not a registered object (roerende zaak, niet-reglstergood); 

 

	 	(b)	physically located in the Netherlands at (i) the time of the registration of the Assets Deed of Pledge concerned with the competent tax Dutch authorities as
referred to in paragraph 4.4, or in respect of future Assets only, at the later of that time and the time when the Pledgor acquires the Asset, and (II) at any time thereafter; 

DE BRAUW                 

        BLACK STONE 

    WESTBROEK       
  

	 	(c)	not in international transit; and 

  

	 	(d)	not a paper embodying a right in bearer or order form, 

  

	4.7	Each Asset is sufficiently Identified (met voldoende bepaaldheld omschreven) In the Assets Deed of Pledge concerned. 

 

	4.8	In respect of each Asset, at the time of the registration of the Assets Deed of Pledge concerned with the competent Dutch tax authorities as referred to in paragraph
4.4 or, where future Assets are concerned, at the later of that time and the time when the Pledgor acquires the Asset and Immediately thereafter: 

  

	 	(a)	the Pledgor has the power (beschlkkingsbevoegdheld) to create the Assets Pledge concerned on the Asset and 

 

	 	(b)	the Asset is free of any Dutch limited right (beperkt recht) or attachment or any foreign law right which may be invoked against the Pledgee.

 (It is noted that under Dutch law the Pledgor loses the power to create the Assets Pledge on an Asset if it
becomes subject to bankruptcy (faillissement), suspension of payments (surseance van betaling) or emergency measures (noodregeling) (each such situation an “Insolvency and “Insolvent” having the corresponding
meaning). Under Dutch law, an Insolvency generally takes effect at 00.00 hrs on the day of the Insolvency judgment.) 
  

	4.9	There are no dealings between the parlies which affect the Assets Deeds of Pledge. 

 

	5	Opinion 

 Based on the documents
and confirmations referred to and the assumptions in paragraphs 3 and 4 and subject to the qualifications in paragraph 6 and to any matters not disclosed to me, (including force (bedreiging), fraud (bedrog), undue influence
(misbruik van omstandlgheden) or a mistake (dwaling) in connection with the Assets Deeds of Pledge), I am of the following opinion: 
  

	5.1	Under Dutch law, the contractual provisions of each Assets Deed of Pledge are valid, binding and enforceable against the Pledgor. 

 

	5.2	Each Assets Pledge is a valid and enforceable Dutch law pledge (pandrecht) on the Assets in favour of the Pledgee for the purposes specified in Clause 3 of the
Assets Deed of Pledge concerned.

Deeds of Pledge. 

  

	5.4	Under Dutch law, there are no registration, filing or similar formalities required to ensure the validity, binding effect and enforceability against the Pledgor of the
Assets Deeds of Pledge except for the purpose of complying with the assumption in paragraphs 4.4. 

  

	6	Qualifications

	6.2	Under Dutch law, when applying Dutch law as the governing law of the Assets Deeds of Fledge (including the Assets Pledges): 

 

	 	•	 	 effect may be given to the law of another jurisdiction with which the situation has a close connection, insofar as, under the law of that jurisdiction,
that law is mandatory irrespective of the governing law of the Assets Deed of Pledge concerned (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any rules (whether mandatory or not) which must be applied pursuant to Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 of

acquiring an Asset or a limited right in respect thereof and acting in good faith (te goeder trouw), (II) statutory preferential rights, rights of retention and other rights of third parties which may be Invoked against the Pledgee, and

guarantees the performance of the obligations of a third party or agrees to provide or provides security for any of its or a third party’s obligations and any other legal act having a similar effect)) may be nullified by any of its creditors,

consideration (om niet)) the party with or towards which It acted, knew or should have known that one or more of its creditors (existing or future) would be prejudiced.

of any Revolving Facility Secured Party securing the Revolving Facility Obligations, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise are expressly junior in priority, operation and effect to any and
all Liens on the Term Facility Priority Collateral now existing or hereafter created or arising in favor of the Term Facility Secured Parties securing the Term Facility Obligations, notwithstanding (i) anything to the contrary contained in any
agreement or filing to which any Revolving Facility Secured Party may now or hereafter be a party, and regardless of the time, order or method of grant, attachment, recording or perfection of any financing statements or other security interests,
assignments, pledges, deeds, mortgages and other liens, charges or encumbrances or any defect or deficiency or alleged defect or deficiency in any of the foregoing, (ii) any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code or any applicable law or any
Term Facility Document or Revolving Facility Document or any other circumstance whatsoever and (iii) the fact that any such Liens in favor of any Term Facility Secured Party securing any of the Term Facility Obligations are
(A) subordinated to any Lien securing any obligation of any Loan Party other than the Revolving Facility Obligations or (B) otherwise subordinated, voided, avoided, invalidated or lapsed. 

(c) No Revolving Facility Secured Party or Term Facility Secured Party shall object to or contest, or support any other Person in
contesting or objecting to, in any proceeding (including without limitation, any Insolvency Proceeding), the validity, extent, perfection, priority or enforceability of any security interest in the Common Collateral granted to the other.
Notwithstanding any failure by any Revolving Facility Secured Party or Term Facility Secured Party to perfect its security interests in the 

  
 10 

 
Common Collateral or any avoidance, invalidation or subordination by any third party or court of competent jurisdiction of the security interests in the Common Collateral granted to the Revolving
Facility Secured Parties or the Term Facility Secured Parties, the priority and rights as between the Revolving Facility Secured Parties and the Term Facility Secured Parties with respect to the Common Collateral shall be as set forth herein.

 2.2. Nature of Revolving Facility Obligations. The Term Facility Agent on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility
Secured Parties acknowledges that a portion of the Revolving Facility Obligations represents debt that is revolving in nature and that the amount thereof that may be outstanding at any time or from time to time may be increased or reduced and
subsequently reborrowed, and that the terms of the Revolving Facility Obligations may be modified, extended or amended from time to time, and that the aggregate amount of the Revolving Facility Obligations may be increased, replaced or refinanced,
in each event without notice to or consent by the Term Facility Secured Parties and without affecting the provisions hereof. The lien priorities provided in Section 2.1 shall not be altered or otherwise affected by any such amendment,
modification, supplement, extension, repayment, reborrowing, increase, replacement, renewal, restatement or refinancing of either the Revolving Facility Obligations or the Term Facility Obligations, or any portion thereof. 

2.3. Agreements Regarding Actions to Perfect Liens, (a) The Term Facility Agent on behalf of itself and the other Term
Facility Secured Parties agrees that, prior to the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date, UCC-1 financing statements, patent, trademark or copyright filings or other filings or recordings filed or recorded by or on behalf of the Term Facility
Agent shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to the Revolving Facility Agent. The Revolving Facility Agent agrees to promptly notify the Term Facility Agent and the Borrower upon the occurrence of all the events described in clauses (a),
(b) and (c) of the defined term “Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date”. 
 (b) The Revolving Facility
Agent on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties agrees that, prior to the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date, UCC-1 financing statements, patent, trademark or copyright filings or other filings or recordings filed or
recorded by or on behalf of the Revolving Facility Agent shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to the Term Facility Agent. The Term Facility Agent agrees to promptly notify the Revolving Facility Agent and the Borrower upon the occurrence of the
event described in clause (a) of the defined term “Term Facility Obligations Payment Date”. 
 (c) The Revolving
Facility Agent agrees on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties that, prior to the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date, all mortgages, deeds of trust, deeds and similar instruments (collectively,
“mortgages”) now or hereafter filed against real property in favor of or for the benefit of the Revolving Facility Agent shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to the Term Facility Agent and shall contain substantially the
following notation: “The lien created by this mortgage on the property described herein is junior and subordinate to the lien on such property created by any mortgage, deed of trust or similar instrument now or hereafter granted to JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and its successors and assigns in such property in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement dated as of June 7, 2007 among JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Revolving Facility Agent,
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Term Facility Agent, and Fender Musical Instruments Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries”. 
 (d) Each of the Revolving Facility Agent and the Term Facility Agent hereby acknowledges that, to the extent that it holds, or a third party holds on its behalf, physical possession of or
“control” (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) over Common Collateral pursuant to the Revolving Facility Security Documents or the Term Facility Security Documents, as applicable, such possession or control is also for the benefit
of the Term Facility Agent and the other Term Facility Secured Parties or the 

  
 11 

 
Revolving Facility Agent and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties, as applicable, solely to the extent required to perfect their security interest in such Common Collateral. Nothing in
the preceding sentence shall be construed to impose any duty on the Revolving Facility Agent or the Term Facility Agent (or any third party acting on either such Person’s behalf) with respect to such Common Collateral or provide the Term
Facility Agent or any other Term Facility Secured Party or the Revolving Facility Agent or any other Revolving Facility Secured Party, as applicable, with any rights with respect to such Common Collateral beyond those specified in this Agreement,
the Revolving Facility Security Documents and the Term Facility Security Documents, provided that (i) subsequent to the occurrence of the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date (if the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date has not
occurred), the Revolving Facility Agent shall (A) deliver to the Term Facility Agent, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, the Common Collateral in its possession or control together with any necessary endorsements to the extent
required by the Term Facility Documents or (B) direct and deliver such Common Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction otherwise directs, and (ii) subsequent to the occurrence of the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date (if the
Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date has not occurred), the Term Facility Agent shall (A) deliver to the Revolving Facility Agent, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, the Common Collateral in its possession or control together
with any necessary endorsements to the extent required by the Revolving Facility Documents or (B) direct and deliver such Common Collateral as a court of competent jurisdiction otherwise directs, and provided, further, that the
provisions of this Agreement are intended solely to govern the respective Lien priorities as between the Revolving Facility Secured Parties and the Term Facility Secured Parties and shall not impose on the Revolving Facility Secured Parties or the
Term Facility Secured Parties any obligations in respect of the disposition of any Common Collateral (or any proceeds thereof) that would conflict with prior perfected Liens or any claims thereon in favor of any other Person that is not a Secured
Party. 
 2.4. No New Liens. (a) Until me Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, (i) there
shall be no Lien, and no Loan Party shall have any right to create any Lien unless not prohibited under the Revolving Facility Agreement, on any assets of any Loan Party securing any Term Facility Obligation if these same assets are not subject to,
and do not become subject to, a Lien securing the Revolving Facility Obligations subject to the lien priorities set forth in Section 2.1 and (ii) if any Term Facility Secured Party shall acquire or hold any Lien on any assets of any Loan
Party securing any Term Facility Obligation which assets are not also subject to the Lien of the Revolving Facility Agent under the Revolving Facility Documents, subject to the lien priorities set forth in Section 2.1, then the Term Facility
Agent will, without the need for any further consent of any other Term Facility Secured Party and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Term Facility Document, be deemed to also hold and have held such Lien for the benefit of the
Revolving Facility Agent as security for the Revolving Facility Obligations (subject to the lien priorities set forth in Section 2.1 and the other terms hereof) and shall promptly notify the Revolving Facility Agent in writing of the existence
of such Lien. To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the Revolving Facility Secured Parties, the Term Facility Agent and the other Term Facility
Secured Parties agree that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.4 shall be subject to Section 4.1. 

(b) Until the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, (i) there shall be no Lien (other than cash collateralization or
backstopping of any Revolving Facility Obligations consisting of letters of credit or Specified Swap Obligations), and no Loan Party shall have any right to create any Lien (other than cash collateralization or backstopping of any Revolving Facility
Obligations consisting of letters of credit or Specified Swap Obligations) unless not prohibited under the Term Facility Agreement, on any assets of any Loan Party securing any Revolving Facility Obligation if these same assets are not subject to,
and do not become subject to, a Lien securing the Term Facility Obligations subject to the lien priorities set forth in Section 2.1 and (ii) if any Revolving Facility Secured Party shall acquire or hold any

  
 12 

 
Lien on any assets of any Loan Party securing any Revolving Facility Obligation which assets are not also subject to the Lien of the Term Facility Agent under the Term Facility Documents, subject
to the lien priorities set forth in Section 2.1, then the Revolving Facility Agent will, without the need for any further consent of any other Revolving Facility Secured Party and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other Revolving
Facility Document, be deemed to also hold and have held such Lien for the benefit of the Term Facility Agent as security for the Term Facility Obligations (subject to the lien priorities set forth in Section 2.1 and the other terms hereof) and
shall promptly notify the Term Facility Agent in writing of the existence of such Lien. To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the Term Facility
Secured Parties, the Revolving Facility Agent and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties agree that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.4
shall be subject to Section 4.1. 
 (c) The Term Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured
Parties, agrees that all Liens securing the Term Facility Obligations shall be held by the Term Facility Agent for the benefit of the Term Facility Secured Parties, and all Term Facility Secured Parties shall cause all such Liens to be granted to
the Term Facility Agent. The Revolving Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties, agrees that all Liens securing the Revolving Facility Obligations shall be held by the Revolving Facility Agent for the
benefit of the Revolving Facility Secured Parties, and all Revolving Facility Secured Parties shall cause all such Liens to be granted to the Revolving Facility Agent. 
 2.5. Specified Swap Obligations and Specified Cash Management Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if at any date the events described in clauses (a),
(b) and (c) of the defined term “Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date” (other than with respect to Specified Swap Obligations, Specified Cash Management Obligations and Unasserted Contingent Obligations) shall have
occurred, the Term Facility Agent on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured Parties shall have the right to take any Enforcement Action with respect to the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral; provided that the Term Facility
Agent on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured Parties hereby acknowledges and agrees that any proceeds of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral received after such date shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.1(a)
until the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date. 
 SECTION 3. ENFORCEMENT RIGHTS. 

3.1. Exclusive Enforcement. (a) Until the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, whether or not an
Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or against any Loan Party, the Revolving Facility Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral,
without any consultation with or consent of any Term Facility Secured Party except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement; provided that nothing contained herein shall be construed as preventing the Term Facility Agent or any
Term Facility Secured Party from taking any action which is reasonably necessary to (i) perfect the Term Facility Liens upon the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral (other than by possession or “control” (within the meaning of the
Uniform Commercial Code)), (ii) prove, preserve or protect (but not enforce) the Term Facility Liens upon the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, so long as such action would not, in any case, adversely affect any Revolving Facility Lien or
(iii) enforce any Term Facility Liens upon the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, including Section 2.5 and this Section 3.1. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance
of an event of default under the Revolving Facility Documents, the Revolving Facility Agent and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties may take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the Revolving Facility Obligations and the
Revolving Facility Priority Collateral in such order and 

  
 13 

 
manner as they may determine in their sole discretion and in accordance with the provisions of the Revolving Facility Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.1
and Section 3.2, if (a) the Term Facility Agent notifies the Revolving Facility Agent that it is permitted and wishes to initiate an Enforcement Action under the Term Facility Documents as of the date such notice is given as a result of
the events of default described in such notice (such events, the “Term Facility Enforcement Trigger Events”) and (b) the Revolving Facility Agent or the Revolving Facility Secured Parties, as the case may be, do not initiate an
Enforcement Action with respect to the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral within 180 days after the receipt of such notice (if any such Enforcement Action so initiated is subsequently withdrawn at the option of the Revolving Facility Agent or
the Revolving Facility Secured Parties, as the case may be, prior to the conclusion of such Enforcement Action other than in connection with the settlement thereof and the cure of the underlying Term Facility Enforcement Trigger Events, then such
180-day period shall continue to accrue as if such Enforcement Action had not been initiated) or an Insolvency Proceeding occurs during such period, the Term Facility Agent and the Term Facility Secured Parties shall have the right to initiate and
prosecute Enforcement Actions with respect to the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral to the extent that Term Facility Enforcement Trigger Events are continuing on the last day of such period (it being understood that the proceeds of any such
Enforcement Action shall be applied in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement and that such Enforcement Action will otherwise be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement). 

(b) Until the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, whether or not an Insolvency Proceeding has been commenced by or
against any Loan Party, the Term Facility Secured Parties shall have the exclusive right to take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the Term Facility Priority Collateral, without any consultation with or consent of any Revolving
Facility Secured Party except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement; provided that nothing contained herein shall be construed as preventing the Revolving Facility Agent or any Revolving Facility Secured Party from taking any
action which is reasonably necessary to (i) perfect the Revolving Facility Liens upon the Term Facility Priority Collateral (other than by possession or “control” (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code)), (ii) prove,
preserve or protect (but not enforce) the Revolving Facility Liens upon the Term Facility Priority Collateral, so long as such action would not, in any case, adversely affect any Term Facility Lien or (iii) enforce any Revolving Facility Liens
upon the Term Facility Priority Collateral in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default under the Term Facility Documents, the Term Facility Agent and the other Term
Facility Secured Parties may take and continue any Enforcement Action with respect to the Term Facility Obligations and the Term Facility Priority Collateral in such order and manner as they may determine in their sole discretion and in accordance
with the terms of the Term Facility Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.1 and Section 3.2, if (a) the Revolving Facility Agent notifies the Term Facility Agent that it is permitted and wishes to
initiate an Enforcement Action under the Revolving Facility Documents as of the date such notice is given as a result of the events of default described in such notice (such events, the “Revolving Facility Enforcement Trigger
Events”) and (b) the Term Facility Agent or the Term Facility Secured Parties, as the case may be, do not initiate an Enforcement Action with respect to the Term Facility Priority Collateral within 180 days after the receipt of such
notice (if any such Enforcement Action so initiated is subsequently withdrawn at the option of the Term Facility Agent or the Term Facility Secured Parties, as the case may be, prior to the conclusion of such Enforcement Action other than in
connection with the settlement thereof and the cure of the underlying Revolving Facility Enforcement Trigger Events, then such 180-day period shall continue to accrue as if such Enforcement Action had not been initiated) or an Insolvency Proceeding
occurs during such period, the Revolving Facility Agent and the Revolving Facility Secured Parties shall have the right to initiate and prosecute Enforcement Actions with respect to the Term Facility Priority Collateral to the extent that Revolving
Facility Enforcement Trigger Events are continuing on the last day of such period (it being understood that the proceeds of any such Enforcement 

  
 14 

 
Action shall be applied in accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement and that such Enforcement Action will otherwise be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement).

 3.2. Standstill and Waivers. (a) The Term Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured
Parties, agrees that, until the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, subject to Section 2.5, the proviso set forth in Section 3.1(a) and the proviso set forth in Section 5.1(a): 

(i) they will not take or cause to be taken any action, the purpose or effect of which is to make any Lien in respect of
any Term Facility Obligation pari passu with or senior to, or to give any Term Facility Secured Party any preference or priority relative to, the Liens on the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral securing the Revolving Facility Obligations;

 (ii) they will not contest, oppose, object to, interfere with, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by
judicial proceedings (including without limitation the filing of an Insolvency Proceeding) or otherwise, any foreclosure, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral by any Revolving Facility
Secured Party or any other Enforcement Action taken (or any forbearance from taking any Enforcement Action) in respect of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral by or on behalf of any Revolving Facility Secured Party; 

(iii) they have no right to (A) direct either the Revolving Facility Agent or any other Revolving Facility Secured
Party to exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral or pursuant to the Revolving Facility Security Documents in respect of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral or (B) consent or object
to the exercise by the Revolving Facility Agent or any other Revolving Facility Secured Party of any right, remedy or power with respect to the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral or pursuant to the Revolving Facility Security Documents in
respect of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral or to the timing or manner in which any such right is exercised or not exercised (or, to the extent they may have any such right described in this clause (iii), whether as a junior lien creditor
in respect of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral or otherwise, they hereby irrevocably waive such right); 
 (iv) they will not institute any suit or other proceeding or assert in any suit, Insolvency Proceeding or other proceeding any claim against any Revolving Facility Secured Party seeking damages from or
other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise, with respect to, and no Revolving Facility Secured Party shall be liable for, any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Revolving Facility Secured Party with respect to the
Revolving Facility Priority Collateral or pursuant to the Revolving Facility Documents in respect of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral so long as such Revolving Facility Secured Party, in taking or omitting to take such action, has not
breached or otherwise violated this Agreement; 
 (v) they will not commence judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure
proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to
enforce their interest in or realize upon, the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral; and 
 (vi) they will not
seek, and hereby waive any right, to have the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral. 

  
 15 

 (b) The Revolving Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility
Secured Parties, agrees that, until the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, subject to the proviso set forth in Section 3.1(b) and the proviso set forth in Section 5.1(b): 

(i) they will not take or cause to be taken any action, the purpose or effect of which is to make any Lien in respect of
any Revolving Facility Obligation pari passu with or senior to, or to give any Revolving Facility Secured Party any preference or priority relative to, the Liens on the Term Facility Priority Collateral securing the Term Facility Obligations;

 (ii) they will not contest, oppose, object to, interfere with, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by
judicial proceedings (including without limitation the filing of an Insolvency Proceeding) or otherwise, any foreclosure, sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Term Facility Priority Collateral by any Term Facility Secured
Party or any other Enforcement Action taken (or any forbearance from taking any Enforcement Action) in respect of the Term Facility Priority Collateral by or on behalf of any Term Facility Secured Party; 

(iii) they have no right to (A) direct either the Term Facility Agent or any other Term Facility Secured Party to
exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to the Term Facility Priority Collateral or pursuant to the Term Facility Security Documents in respect of the Term Facility Priority Collateral or (B) consent or object to the exercise by the
Term Facility Agent or any other Term Facility Secured Party of any right, remedy or power with respect to the Term Facility Priority Collateral or pursuant to the Term Facility Security Documents in respect of the Term Facility Priority Collateral
or to the timing or manner in which any such right is exercised or not exercised (or, to the extent they may have any such right described in this clause (iii), whether as a junior lien creditor in respect of the Term Facility Priority Collateral or
otherwise, they hereby irrevocably waive such right); 
 (iv) they will not institute any suit or other
proceeding or assert in any suit, Insolvency Proceeding or other proceeding any claim against any Term Facility Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise, with respect to, and no
Term Facility Secured Party shall be liable for, any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Term Facility Secured Party with respect to the Term Facility Priority Collateral or pursuant to the Term Facility Documents in respect of the Term
Facility Priority Collateral so long as such Term Facility Secured Party, in taking or omitting to take such action, has not breached or otherwise violated this Agreement; 

(v) they will not commence judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee,
receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce their interest in or realize upon, the Term
Facility Priority Collateral; and 
 (vi) they will not seek, and hereby waive any right, to have the Term
Facility Priority Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of the Term Facility Priority Collateral. 
 3.3. Judgment Creditors. In the event that any Term Facility Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Common Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an
unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the Revolving Facility Liens and the Revolving Facility Obligations) to the same extent as all other Liens securing the
Term Facility Obligations are subject to the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 16 

 In the event that any Revolving Facility Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Common
Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor, such judgment lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the Term Facility Liens and the Term Facility
Obligations) to the same extent as all other Liens securing the Revolving Facility Obligations are subject to the terms of this Agreement. 
 3.4. Cooperation; Sharing of Information and Access; License. (a) The Term Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured Parties, agrees that each of them shall take
such actions as the Revolving Facility Agent shall reasonably request in connection with the exercise by the Revolving Facility Secured Parties of their rights set forth herein in respect of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral. The Revolving
Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties, agrees that each of them shall take such actions as the Term Facility Agent shall reasonably request in connection with the exercise by the Term Facility Secured
Parties of their rights set forth herein in respect of the Term Facility Priority Collateral. 
 (b) In the event that the
Revolving Facility Agent shall, in the exercise of its rights under the Revolving Facility Documents or otherwise, receive possession or control of any books and records of any Loan Party which contain information identifying or pertaining to the
Term Facility Priority Collateral, the Revolving Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Term Facility Agent of such fact and, upon request from the Term Facility Agent and as promptly as practicable thereafter, shall either make available to the
Term Facility Agent such books and records for inspection and duplication or provide to the Term Facility Agent copies thereof. In the event that the Term Facility Agent shall, in the exercise of its rights under the Term Facility Documents or
otherwise, receive possession or control of any books and records of any Loan Party which contain information identifying or pertaining to the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, the Term Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Revolving
Facility Agent of such fact and, upon request from the Revolving Facility Agent and as promptly as practicable thereafter, shall either make available to the Revolving Facility Agent such books and records for inspection and duplication or provide
to the Revolving Facility Agent copies thereof. 
 (c) The Term Facility Agent, on behalf of the Term Facility Secured Parties,
hereby irrevocably grants the Revolving Facility Agent a non-exclusive worldwide license to or right to use, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent of the Term Facility Agent’s interest therein, exercisable without
payment of royalty or other compensation to the Term Facility Agent, any of the Intellectual Property to the extent constituting Common Collateral, subject to the rights of third parties therein and whether now or hereafter owned by, licensed to, or
otherwise used by the Loan Parties in order for the Revolving Facility Agent and the Revolving Facility Secured Parties to purchase, use, market, repossess, possess, store, assemble, manufacture, process, sell, transfer, distribute or otherwise
dispose of any asset included in the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral in connection with the liquidation, disposition, foreclosure or realization upon the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Revolving
Facility Documents; provided that such license shall expire on the earlier of (i) the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date and (ii) the date that the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral has been liquidated, disposed of,
foreclosed on or realized upon (the “License Expiration Date”). The Term Facility Agent agrees that any of the Intellectual Property constituting Term Facility Priority Collateral that is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of
by the Term Facility Agent (whether pursuant to an Enforcement Action or otherwise) prior to the License Expiration Date will be subject to the rights of the Revolving Facility Agent as set forth in this Section 3.4. 

(d) If the Term Facility Agent, or any agent or representative of the Term Facility Agent, or any receiver, shall, after the commencement
of any Enforcement Action, obtain possession or physical control of any of the Term Facility Priority Collateral, the Term Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Revolving Facility Agent in writing of that fact, and the Revolving Facility Agent
shall, within ten 

  
 17 

 
Business Days thereafter, notify the Term Facility Agent in writing as to whether the Revolving Facility Agent desires to exercise access rights under this Agreement. In addition, if the
Revolving Facility Agent, or any agent or representative of the Revolving Facility Agent, or any receiver, shall obtain possession or physical control of any of the Term Facility Priority Collateral in connection with an Enforcement Action, then the
Revolving Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Term Facility Agent that the Revolving Facility Agent is exercising its access rights under this Agreement and its rights under Section 3.4 under either circumstance. Upon delivery of such
notice by the Revolving Facility Agent to the Term Facility Agent, the parties shall confer in good faith to coordinate with respect to the Revolving Facility Agent’s exercise of such access rights, with such access rights to apply to any
parcel or item of Term Facility Priority Collateral access to which is reasonably necessary to enable the Revolving Facility Agent during normal business hours to convert Revolving Facility Priority Collateral consisting of raw materials and
work-in-process into saleable finished goods and/or to transport such Revolving Facility Priority Collateral to a point where such conversion can occur, to otherwise prepare Revolving Facility Priority Collateral for sale and/or to arrange or effect
the sale of Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, all in accordance with the manner in which such matters are completed in the ordinary course of business. Consistent with the definition of “Access Period,” access rights will apply to
differing parcels or items of Term Facility Priority Collateral at differing times, in which case, a differing Access Period will apply to each such parcel or items. During any pertinent Access Period, the Revolving Facility Agent and its agents,
representatives and designees shall have an irrevocable, non-exclusive right to have access to, and a rent-free (with respect to the rights of the Term Facility Agent but not with respect to the rights of any third parties) right to use, the
relevant parcel or item of the Term Facility Priority Collateral for the purposes described above. The Revolving Facility Agent shall take proper and reasonable care under the circumstances of any Term Facility Priority Collateral that is used by
the Revolving Facility Agent during the Access Period and repair and replace any damage (ordinary wear-and-tear excepted) caused by the Revolving Facility Agent or its agents, representatives or designees and the Revolving Facility Agent shall
comply with all applicable laws in all material respects in connection with its use or occupancy or possession of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral. The Revolving Facility Agent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Term Facility Agent and
the Term Facility Creditors for any injury or damage to Persons or property (ordinary wear-and-tear excepted) caused by the acts or omissions of Persons under its control; provided, however, that the Revolving Facility Agent and the
Revolving Facility Creditors will not be liable for any diminution in the value of Term Facility Priority Collateral caused by the absence of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral therefrom. The Revolving Facility Agent and the Term Facility
Agent shall cooperate and use reasonable efforts to ensure that their activities during the Access Period as described above do not interfere materially with the activities of the other as described above, including the right of Term Facility Agent
to show the Term Facility Priority Collateral to prospective purchasers and to ready the Term Facility Priority Collateral for sale. Consistent with the definition of the term “Access Period,” if any order or injunction is issued or stay
is granted or is otherwise effective by operation of law that prohibits the Revolving Facility Agent from exercising any of its rights hereunder, then the Access Period granted to the Revolving Facility Agent under this Section 3.4 shall be stayed
during the period of such prohibition and shall continue thereafter for the number of days remaining as required under this Section 3.4. The Term Facility Agent shall not foreclose or otherwise sell, remove or dispose of any of the Term
Facility Priority Collateral during the Access Period with respect to such Collateral if such Collateral is reasonably necessary to enable the Revolving Facility Agent to convert, transport or arrange to sell the Revolving Facility Priority
Collateral as described above. 
 3.5. No Additional Rights For the Loan Parties Hereunder. Except as provided in Section
3.6, if any Revolving Facility Secured Party or Term Facility Secured Party shall enforce its rights or remedies in violation of the terms of this Agreement, no Loan Party shall be entitled to use such violation as a defense to any action by any
Revolving Facility Secured Party or Term Facility Secured Party, nor to assert such violation as a counterclaim or basis for set off or recoupment against any Revolving Facility Secured Party or Term Facility Secured Party. 

  
 18 

 3.6. Actions Upon Breach. (a) If any Term Facility Secured Party or Revolving
Facility Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, commences or participates in any action or proceeding against any Loan Party or the Common Collateral, such Loan Party, with the prior written consent of the Revolving Facility Agent or the Term
Facility Agent, as applicable, may interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the making of this Agreement, and any Revolving Facility Secured Party or Term Facility Secured Party, as applicable, may intervene and interpose such defense or plea in its
or their name or in the name of such Loan Party. 
 (b) Should any Term Facility Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, in
any way take, attempt to or threaten to take any action with respect to the Common Collateral (including, without limitation, any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), or fail to take any action required by
this Agreement, any Revolving Facility Secured Party (in its own name or in the name of the relevant Loan Party) or the relevant Loan Party may obtain relief against such Term Facility Secured Party, by injunction, specific performance and/or other
appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by the Term Facility Agent on behalf of each Term Facility Secured Party that (i) the Revolving Facility Secured Parties’ damages from its actions may at that time be difficult
to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) each Term Facility Secured Party waives any defense that the Loan Parties and/or the Revolving Facility Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages.

 (c) Should any Revolving Facility Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, attempt to or threaten to take
any action with respect to the Common Collateral (including, without limitation, any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), or fail to take any action required by this Agreement, any Term Facility Secured
Party (in its own name or in the name of the relevant Loan Party) or the relevant Loan Party may obtain relief against such Revolving Facility Secured Party, by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief, it being
understood and agreed by the Revolving Facility Agent on behalf of each Revolving Facility Secured Party that (i) the Term Facility Secured Parties’ damages from its actions may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be
irreparable, and (ii) each Revolving Facility Secured Party waives any defense that the Loan Parties and/or the Term Facility Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages.

 4.3. Certain Real Property Notices; Inspection Rights and Insurance. (a) To the
extent provided under the Revolving Facility Documents, any Revolving Facility Secured Party and its representatives and invitees may at any time inspect, repossess, remove and otherwise deal with the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, and the
Revolving Facility Agent may advertise and conduct public auctions or private sales of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, in each case without notice to, the involvement of or interference by any Term Facility Secured Party or liability to

govern the ultimate disposition of casualty insurance proceeds. Until the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the Revolving Facility Agent will have the sole and exclusive right as between itself and the Term Facility Agent but
in all circumstances subject to and solely to the extent provided under the Revolving Facility Documents (i) to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral in the event of any loss
thereunder and (ii) to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral. Until the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the Term Facility Agent will have
the sole and exclusive right as between itself and the Revolving Facility Agent but in all circumstances subject to and solely to the extent provided under the Term Facility Documents (i) to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim
covering the Term Facility Priority Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and (ii) to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Term Facility Priority Collateral. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything the contrary in the Revolving Facility Agreement or the Term Facility Agreement, the parties hereby agree
that in the event that a Recovery Event occurs and the Borrower is required as a result under the terms of the Revolving Facility Agreement or the Term Facility Agreement to prepay or offer to prepay the Revolving Facility Obligations or the Term
Facility Obligations, then such prepayments shall be made (a) in the case of a Recovery Event involving Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, first to the Revolving Facility Obligations and then to the Term Facility Obligations as provided in
Section 4.1 and (b) in the case of a Recovery Event involving Term Facility Priority Collateral, first to the Term Facility Obligations and then to the Revolving Facility Obligations as provided in Section 4.1. 

4.4. Proceeds from Incurrence or Issuance of Indebtedness. Net Cash Proceeds from any Indebtedness issued or incurred by the
Borrower or any Group Member to the extent that the Borrower is required to prepay or offer to prepay the Revolving Facility Obligations under the Revolving Facility Documents or the Term Facility Obligations under the Term Facility Documents shall
be distributed as follows: first to the Term Facility Agent for application to the Term Facility Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Term Facility Documents, until the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, and
thereafter, to the Revolving Facility Agent for application in accordance with the Revolving Facility Documents; provided that at any time prior to the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date when the sum of Availability plus
Perfected Cash (as each such term is defined in the Existing Revolving Facility Agreement) is less than $20,000,000, such proceeds shall be distributed on a pro rata basis to (a) the Term Facility Agent, for application to the
Term Facility Obligations in accordance with the terms of 

  
 22 

 
the Term Facility Documents, and (b) the Revolving Facility Agent, for application in accordance with the Revolving Facility Documents. 

SECTION 5. INSOLVENCY PROCEEDINGS. 
 5.1. Filing of Motions. (a) Until the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the Term Facility Agent agrees on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured Parties
that no Term Facility Secured Party shall, in or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, take any action with respect to the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral or the validity or enforceability of any of the Revolving Facility Documents or
any of the Revolving Facility Obligations thereunder, including by filing any pleadings or motions or taking any position at any hearing or proceeding of any nature, that in each case (i) violates, or is prohibited by, this Section 5 (or,
in the absence of an Insolvency Proceeding, otherwise would violate or be prohibited by this Agreement), (ii) asserts any right, benefit or privilege that arises in favor of the Term Facility Agent or Term Facility Secured Parties, in whole or
in part, as a result of their interest in the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral or in the Term Facility Lien on the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral (unless the assertion of such right is expressly permitted by this Agreement) or
(iii) relates in any way to the determination of any Liens or claims held by the Revolving Facility Agent (including the validity and enforceability thereof) or any other Revolving Facility Secured Party or the value of any claims of such
parties under Section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; provided that the Term Facility Agent may (A) file a proof of claim in an Insolvency Proceeding and (B) file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in
opposition of any motion or other pleadings made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Term Facility Secured Parties on the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, in each case subject to the
limitations contained in this Agreement and only if consistent with the terms and the limitations on the Term Facility Agent imposed hereby. 
 (b) Until the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date has occurred, the Revolving Facility Agent agrees on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties that no Revolving Facility
Secured Party shall, in or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, take any action with respect to the Term Facility Priority Collateral or the validity or enforceability of any of the Term Facility Documents or any of the Term Facility
Obligations thereunder, including by filing any pleadings or motions or taking any position at any hearing or proceeding of any nature, that in each case (i) violates, or is prohibited by, this Section 5 (or, in the absence of an
Insolvency Proceeding, otherwise would violate or be prohibited by this Agreement), (ii) asserts any right, benefit or privilege that arises in favor of the Revolving Facility Agent or Revolving Facility Secured Parties, in whole or in part, as
a result of their interest in the Term Facility Priority Collateral or in any Revolving Facility Lien on the Term Facility Priority Collateral (unless the assertion of such right is expressly permitted by this Agreement) or (iii) relates in any
way to the determination of any Liens or claims held by the Term Facility Agent (including the validity and enforceability thereof) or any other Term Facility Secured Party or the value of any claims of such parties under Section 506(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; provided that the Revolving Facility Agent may (A) file a proof of claim in an Insolvency Proceeding and (B) file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition of any motion or other
pleadings made by any Person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Revolving Facility Secured Parties on the Term Facility Priority Collateral, in each case subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement and
only if consistent with the terms and the limitations on the Revolving Facility Agent imposed hereby. 
 5.2. Financing
Matters. (a) If any Loan Party becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding at any time prior to the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date, and if the Revolving Facility Agent or the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties desire to
consent (or not object) to the use of cash collateral that constitutes Revolving Facility Priority Collateral under the Bankruptcy Code or to provide 

  
 23 

 
financing to any Loan Party under the Bankruptcy Code or to consent (or not object) to the provision of such financing to any Loan Party by any third party (any such financing, “Revolving
Facility DIP Financing”), which Revolving Facility DIP Financing shall be secured by the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, then the Term Facility Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured Parties that each
Term Facility Secured Party, so long as the aggregate amount of the Revolving Facility DIP Financing does not exceed $165,000,000, (i) will be deemed to have consented to, will raise no objection to, nor support any other Person objecting to,
the use of such cash collateral or to such Revolving Facility DIP Financing, (ii) will not request or accept adequate protection or any other relief in connection with the use of such cash collateral or such Revolving Facility DIP Financing
except as set forth in paragraph 5.4 below, and (iii) will subordinate (and will be deemed hereunder to have subordinated) the Term Facility Liens on the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral (A) to such Revolving Facility DIP Financing
on the same terms as the Revolving Facility Liens are subordinated thereto (and such subordination will not alter in any manner the terms of this Agreement), (B) to any adequate protection provided to the Revolving Facility Secured Parties and
(C) to any “carve-out,” including for debtor’s professionals, agreed to by the Revolving Facility Agent or the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties, so long as (1) the Term Facility Agent retains the Term Facility Liens
on the Common Collateral to secure the Term Facility Obligations (in each case, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of any such Insolvency Proceeding), and, as to the Term Facility Priority Collateral only, such Lien has the
same priority as existed prior to the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding and any Lien securing such Revolving Facility DIP Financing is junior and subordinate to the Term Facility Lien on the Term Facility Priority Collateral, (2) all
Liens on Revolving Facility Priority Collateral securing any such Revolving Facility DIP Financing shall be senior to or on a parity with the Revolving Facility Liens on such Revolving Facility Priority Collateral and (3) if the Revolving
Facility Agent receives a replacement or adequate protection Lien on post-petition assets of any Loan Party that constitute Term Facility Priority Collateral (the “Term Facility Post-Petition Assets”) to secure the Revolving
Facility Obligations, (x) such replacement or adequate protection Lien on such Term Facility Post-Petition Assets is junior and subordinate to the Term Facility Lien on such Term Facility Post-Petition Assets and (y) the Term Facility
Agent also receives a replacement or adequate protection Lien on such Term Facility Post-Petition Assets to secure the Term Facility Obligations. 
 (b) If any Loan Party becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding at any time prior to the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date, and if the Term Facility Agent or the other Term Facility Secured
Parties desire to consent (or not object) to the use of cash collateral that constitutes Term Facility Priority Collateral under the Bankruptcy Code or to provide financing to any Loan Party under the Bankruptcy Code or to consent (or not object) to
the provision of such financing to any Loan Party by any third party (any such financing, “Term Facility DTP Financing”), which Term Facility DIP Financing shall be secured by the Term Facility Priority Collateral, then the
Revolving Facility Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties that each Revolving Facility Secured Party, so long as the aggregate amount of the Term Facility DIP Financing does not exceed $420,000,000,
(i) will be deemed to have consented to, will raise no objection to, nor support any other Person objecting to, the use of such cash collateral or to such Term Facility DIP Financing, (ii) will not request or accept adequate protection or
any other relief in connection with the use of such cash collateral or such Term Facility DIP Financing except as set forth in paragraph 5.4 below, and (iii) will subordinate (and will be deemed hereunder to have subordinated) the Revolving
Facility Liens on the Term Facility Priority Collateral (A) to such Term Facility DIP Financing on the same terms as the Term Facility Liens are subordinated thereto (and such subordination will not alter in any manner the terms of this
Agreement), (B) to any adequate protection provided to the Term Facility Secured Parties and (C) to any “carve-out,” including for debtor’s professionals, agreed to by the Term Facility Agent or the other Term Facility
Secured Parties, so long as (1) the Revolving Facility Agent retains the Revolving Facility Liens on the Common Collateral to secure the Revolving Facility Obligations (in each case, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of
any such Insolvency Proceeding), and, as to the Revolving Facility 

  
 24 

 
Priority Collateral only, such Lien has the same priority as existed prior to the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding and any Lien securing such Term Facility DIP Financing is junior and
subordinate to the Revolving Facility Lien on the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, (2) all Liens on Term Facility Priority Collateral securing any such Term Facility DIP Financing shall be senior to or on a parity with the Term Facility
Liens on such Term Facility Priority Collateral and (3) if the Term Facility Agent receives a replacement or adequate protection Lien on post-petition assets of any Loan Party that constitute Revolving Facility Priority Collateral (the
“Revolving Facility Post-Petition Assets”) to secure the Term Facility Obligations, (x) such replacement or adequate protection Lien on such Revolving Facility Post-Petition Assets is junior and subordinate to the Revolving
Facility Lien on such Revolving Facility Post-Petition Assets and (y) the Revolving Facility Agent also receives a replacement or adequate protection Lien on such Revolving Facility Post-Petition Assets to secure the Revolving Facility
Obligations. 
 (c) All Liens granted to the Revolving Facility Agent or the Term Facility Agent in any Insolvency Proceeding,
whether as adequate protection or otherwise, are intended to be and shall be deemed to be subject to the lien priorities set forth in Section 2.1 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

5.3. Relief From the Automatic Stay. Until the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date, the Term Facility Agent agrees, on
behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured Parties, that none of them will seek relief from the automatic stay or from any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding or take any action in derogation thereof, in each case in respect of any
Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, without the prior written consent of the Revolving Facility Agent. Until the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date, the Revolving Facility Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility
Secured Parties, that none of them will seek relief from the automatic stay or from any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding or take any action in derogation thereof, in each case in respect of any Term Facility Priority Collateral, without the
prior written consent of the Term Facility Agent. In addition, neither the Revolving Facility Agent nor the Term Facility Agent shall seek any relief from the automatic stay with respect to any Common Collateral without providing 30 days’ prior
written notice to the other, unless otherwise agreed by both the Revolving Facility Agent and the Term Facility Agent. 
 5.4.
Adequate Protection. (a) The Term Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured Parties, agrees that, prior to the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date, so long as the Revolving Facility Agent and the
other Revolving Facility Secured Parties comply with Section 5.4(b), none of them shall object, contest, or support any other Person objecting to or contesting, (i) any request by the Revolving Facility Agent or the other Revolving
Facility Secured Parties for adequate protection of its interest in the Common Collateral or any adequate protection provided to the Revolving Facility Agent or the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties or (ii) any objection by the Revolving
Facility Agent or any other Revolving Facility Secured Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a claim of a lack of adequate protection in the Common Collateral or (iii) the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other
amounts to the Revolving Facility Agent or any other Revolving Facility Secured Party under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The Term Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured Parties,
further agrees that, prior to the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date, none of them shall assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise that is senior to or on a parity with the Revolving
Facility Liens for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Revolving Facility Priority Collateral. Subject to all other provisions of this Agreement, in any Insolvency Proceeding, if the Revolving Facility Secured Parties (or any subset
thereof) are granted adequate protection consisting of additional collateral that constitutes Revolving Facility Priority Collateral (with replacement liens on such additional collateral) and superpriority claims in connection with any Revolving
Facility DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, and the Revolving Facility Secured Parties do not object to the adequate 

  
 25 

 
protection being provided to them, then in connection with any such Revolving Facility DIP Financing or use of cash collateral the Term Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and any of the Term
Facility Secured Parties, may, as adequate protection of their interests in the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, seek or accept (and the Revolving Facility Agent and the Revolving Facility Secured Parties shall not object to) adequate
protection consisting solely of (x) a replacement Lien on the same additional collateral, subordinated to the Liens securing the Revolving Facility Obligations and such Revolving Facility DIP Financing on the same basis as the other Term
Facility Liens on the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral are so subordinated to the Revolving Facility Obligations under this Agreement and (y) superpriority claims junior in all respects to the superpriority claims granted to the Revolving
Facility Secured Parties, provided, however, that the Term Facility Agent shall have irrevocably agreed, pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, on behalf of itself and the Term Facility Secured Parties, in any
stipulation and/or order granting such adequate protection, that such junior superpriority claims may be paid under any plan of reorganization in any combination of cash, debt, equity or other property having a value on the effective date of such
plan equal to the allowed amount of such claims. 
 (b) The Revolving Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other
Revolving Facility Secured Parties, agrees that, prior to the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date, so long as the Term Facility Agent and the other Term Facility Secured Parties comply with Section 5.4(a), none of them shall object, contest,
or support any other Person objecting to or contesting, (i) any request by the Term Facility Agent or the other Term Facility Secured Parties for adequate protection of its interest in the Common Collateral or any adequate protection provided
to the Term Facility Agent or the other Term Facility Secured Parties or (ii) any objection by the Term Facility Agent or any other Term Facility Secured Parties to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a claim of a lack of adequate
protection in the Common Collateral or (iii) the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to the Term Facility Agent or any other Term Facility Secured Party under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise;
provided that any action described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) does not violate Section 5.2. The Revolving Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties, further agrees that,
prior to the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date, none of them shall assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(b) or 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise that is senior to or on a parity with the Term Facility Liens for costs or
expenses of preserving or disposing of any Term Facility Priority Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section and in Section 5.2(b)(ii), but subject to all other provisions of this Agreement (including,
without limitation, Section 5.2(b)(i) and Section 5.3), in any Insolvency Proceeding, if the Term Facility Secured Parties (or any subset thereof) are granted adequate protection consisting of additional collateral that constitutes Term
Facility Priority Collateral (with replacement liens on such additional collateral) and superpriority claims in connection with any DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, and the Term Facility Secured Parties do not object to the adequate
protection being provided to them, then in connection with any such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral the Revolving Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and any of the Revolving Facility Secured Parties, may, as adequate protection of their
interests in the Term Facility Priority Collateral, seek or accept (and the Term Facility Agent and the Term Facility Secured Parties shall not object to) adequate protection consisting solely of (x) a replacement Lien on the same additional
collateral, subordinated to the Liens securing the Term Facility Obligations on the same basis as the other Revolving Facility Liens on the Term Facility Priority Collateral are so subordinated to the Term Facility Obligations under this Agreement
and (y) superpriority claims junior in all respects to the superpriority claims granted to the Term Facility Secured Parties, provided, however, that the Revolving Facility Agent shall have irrevocably agreed, pursuant to
Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Facility Secured Parties, in any stipulation and/or order granting such adequate protection, that such junior superpriority claims may be paid under any plan of
reorganization in any combination of cash, debt, equity or other property having a value on the effective date of such plan equal to the allowed amount of such claims. 

  
 26 

 5.5. Avoidance Issues. (a) If any Revolving Facility Secured Party is required
in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Loan Party any amount (a “Recovery”), because such Recovery was avoided or ordered to be paid or disgorged for any reason,
including without limitation because it was found to be a fraudulent or preferential transfer, whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or otherwise, then the Revolving Facility Obligations shall be reinstated to
the extent of such Recovery and, for the purposes of this Agreement (and, as applicable, the Revolving Facility Documents and the Term Facility Documents), deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the Revolving Facility
Obligations Payment Date shall be deemed not to have occurred. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release,
discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto. The Term Facility Secured Parties agree that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or
allocation made in accordance with this Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in
accordance with the priorities set forth in this Agreement. 
 (b) If any Term Facility Secured Party is required in any
Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to disgorge, turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Loan Party any Recovery, because such Recovery was avoided or ordered to be paid or disgorged for any reason, including without limitation because it was
found to be a fraudulent or preferential transfer, whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of set-off or otherwise, then the Term Facility Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and, for the
purposes of this Agreement (and, as applicable, the Revolving Facility Documents and the Term Facility Documents), deemed to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the Term Facility Obligations Payment Date shall be deemed not to
have occurred. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the
obligations of the parties hereto. The Revolving Facility Secured Parties agree that none of them shall be entitled to benefit from any avoidance action affecting or otherwise relating to any distribution or allocation made in accordance with this
Agreement, whether by preference or otherwise, it being understood and agreed that the benefit of such avoidance action otherwise allocable to them shall instead be allocated and turned over for application in accordance with the priorities set
forth in this Agreement. 
 5.6. Asset Dispositions in an Insolvency Proceeding. (a) Neither the Term Facility Agent
nor any other Term Facility Secured Party shall, in an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, oppose any sale or disposition of any Revolving Facility Priority Collateral that is supported by the Revolving Facility Secured Parties, and the Term
Facility Agent and each other Term Facility Secured Party will be deemed to have consented under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any sale supported by the Revolving Facility Secured Parties and to have released their Liens
on such Revolving Facility Priority Collateral; provided that (i) Revolving Facility Liens and Term Facility Liens will attach to the proceeds of any such sale or disposition with the same lien priorities set forth in Section 2.1
and (ii) Credit Bid Rights in respect of any such sale or disposition shall have been granted to the Term Facility Agent and the other Term Facility Secured Parties. 
 (b) Neither the Revolving Facility Agent nor any other Revolving Facility Secured Party shall, in an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, oppose any sale or disposition of any Term Facility Priority
Collateral that is supported by the Term Facility Secured Parties, and the Revolving Facility Agent and each other Revolving Facility Secured Party will be deemed to have consented under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (and otherwise) to any
sale supported by the Term Facility Secured Parties and to have released their Liens on such Term Facility Priority Collateral; provided that (i) Term Facility 

  
 27 

 
Liens and Revolving Facility Liens will attach to the proceeds of any such sale or disposition with the same lien priorities set forth in Section 2.1, (ii) Credit Bid Rights in respect
of any such sale or disposition shall have been granted to the Revolving Facility Agent and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties and (iii) any of the Intellectual Property constituting Term Facility Priority Collateral that is sold,
transferred or otherwise disposed of by the Term Facility Agent (pursuant to an Enforcement Action) prior to the Revolving Facility Obligations Payment Date will be subject to the rights of the Revolving Facility Agent as set forth in
Section 3.4. 
 5.7. Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Term Facility Secured Party and
each Revolving Facility Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that (a) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Revolving Facility Security Documents and the Term Facility Security Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and
(b) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Common Collateral, the Term Facility Obligations are fundamentally different from the Revolving Facility Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of
reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the Revolving Facility Secured Parties and Term
Facility Secured Parties in respect of the Common Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Term Facility Secured Parties and the Revolving Facility Secured Parties
hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of senior and junior secured claims against the Loan Parties in respect of the Common Collateral with the effect being that (i) to the extent
that the aggregate value of the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Term Facility Secured Parties), the Revolving Facility Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition
to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition Interest that is available from the Revolving Facility Priority Collateral before any distribution is made
in respect of the claims held by the Term Facility Secured Parties and (ii) to the extent that the aggregate value of the Term Facility Priority Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Revolving Facility
Secured Parties), the Term Facility Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of Post-Petition Interest that
is available from the Term Facility Priority Collateral before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Revolving Facility Secured Parties, with the Term Facility Secured Parties and the Revolving Facility Secured Parties hereby
acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Revolving Facility Secured Parties and the Term Facility Secured Parties, respectively, amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this
sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of such Secured Parties. 
 5.8. Other
Matters. (a) To the extent that the Term Facility Agent or any Term Facility Secured Party has or acquires rights under Section 363 or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any of the Revolving Facility Priority
Collateral, the Term Facility Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Term Facility Secured Parties not to assert any of such rights without the prior written consent of the Revolving Facility Agent; provided that if requested by the
Revolving Facility Agent, the Term Facility Agent shall timely exercise such rights in the manner requested by the Revolving Facility Agent, including any rights to payments in respect of such rights. 

(b) To the extent that the Revolving Facility Agent or any Revolving Facility Secured Party has or acquires rights under Section 363
or Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any of the Term Facility Priority Collateral, the Revolving Facility Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties not to assert any of such rights
without the prior written consent of the Term Facility Agent; provided that if requested by the Term Facility Agent, the Revolving Facility Agent 

  
 28 

 
shall timely exercise such rights in the manner requested by the Term Facility Agent, including any rights to payments in respect of such rights. 

5.9. Effectiveness in Insolvency Proceedings. This Agreement, which the parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a
“subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be applicable both before and after the filing of any petition by or against any of the Loan Parties under the Bankruptcy Code or comparable foreign laws and
all converted or succeeding cases in respect thereof, and all references herein to any Loan Party shall be deemed to apply to the trustee for such Loan Party and such Loan Party as a debtor-in-possession. The relative rights of (a) the
Revolving Facility Agent and the other Revolving Facility Secured Parties and (b) the Term Facility Agent and the other Term Facility Secured Parties in or to any distributions from or in respect of any Common Collateral or proceeds of Common
Collateral, shall continue after the filing thereof on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition, subject to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, any Loan Party as a debtor-in-possession. If, in any
Insolvency Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any Revolving Facility Priority Collateral of the reorganized debtor are distributed both on account of Revolving Facility Obligations and on account of Term
Facility Obligations, then, to the extent such debt obligations are secured by Liens upon any Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to any plan
effected pursuant to an Insolvency Proceeding and will apply with like effect to the Liens securing such debt obligations. 

SECTION 6. TERM FACILITY DOCUMENTS AND REVOLVING FACILITY DOCUMENTS. 

(a) Each Loan Party and the Term Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the Term Facility Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not at
any time execute or deliver any amendment or other modification to any of the Term Facility Documents in violation of this Agreement. 
 (b) Each Loan Party and the Revolving Facility Agent, on behalf of itself and the Revolving Facility Secured Parties, agrees that it shall not at any time execute or deliver any amendment or other
modification to any of the Revolving Facility Documents in violation of this Agreement. 
 (c) In the event the Revolving
Facility Agent enters into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the Revolving Facility Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any
Revolving Facility Security Document or changing in any manner the rights of any parties thereunder, in each case solely with respect to any Revolving Facility Priority Collateral, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to
any comparable provision of the Comparable Term Facility Security Document without the consent of or action by any Term Facility Secured Party (with all such amendments, waivers and modifications subject to the terms hereof); provided that
(other than with respect to amendments, modifications or waivers that secure additional extensions of credit and add additional secured creditors and do. not violate the express provisions of the Term Facility Agreements), (i) no such
amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of removing assets subject to the Lien of any Term Facility Security Document, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 4.2, (ii) any such amendment, waiver
or consent that materially and adversely affects the rights of the Term Facility Secured Parties and does not affect the Revolving Facility Secured Parties in a like or similar manner shall not apply to the Term Facility Security Documents without
the consent of the Term Facility Agent and (iii) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall be given to the Term Facility Agent no later than 30 days after its effectiveness, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not
affect the effectiveness and validity thereof. 

  
 29 

 (d) In the event the Term Facility Agent enters into any amendment, waiver or consent in
respect of any of the Term Facility Security Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any Term Facility Security Document or changing in any manner the rights of any
parties thereunder, in each case solely with respect to any Term Facility Priority Collateral, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Comparable Revolving Facility Security Document
without the consent of or action by any Revolving Facility Secured Party (with all such amendments, waivers and modifications subject to the terms hereof); provided that (other than with respect to amendments, modifications or waivers that
secure additional extensions of credit and add additional secured creditors and do not violate the express provisions of the Revolving Facility Agreements), (i) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of removing assets
subject to the Lien of any Revolving Facility Security Document, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted by Section 4.2, (ii) any such amendment, waiver or consent that materially and adversely affects the rights of
the Revolving Facility Secured Parties and does not affect the Term Facility Secured Parties in a like or similar manner shall not apply to the Revolving Facility Security Documents without the consent of the Revolving Facility Agent and
(iii) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall be given to the Revolving Facility Agent no later than 30 days after its effectiveness, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness and validity
thereof.

Amendment, the Borrower shall repay in full any Obligations owing to such Non-Extending Lenders on the Existing Maturity Date.

resign, the Extension Amendment shall not become effective until: (i) the Extending Lenders and Additional Commitment Lenders have appointed a replacement administrative agent and such replacement administrative agent has agreed in writing to
assume the rights and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent, (ii) such replacement agent executes such documents as reasonably requested by the resigning Administrative Agent to effect such replacement, (iii) the Borrower, Extending
Lenders, and Additional Commitment Lenders agree in writing that the indemnification and reimbursement provisions set forth herein for the benefit of any Agent or any Lender shall continue in full force effect for such resigning Administrative
Agent, and (iv) all Obligations owing to such resigning Administrative Agent are repaid in full by Borrower or cash collateralized on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to such resigning Administrative Agent.
