 1.3 Accounting Principles. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all
computations and determinations as to accounting or financial matters (including financial ratios and other financial covenants) and all financial statements to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be made and prepared in accordance with
GAAP (including principles of consolidation where appropriate), applied on a consistent basis and, except as expressly provided herein, in a manner consistent with that used in preparing audited financial statements in accordance with
Section 6.1(b) and all accounting or financial terms have the meanings ascribed to such terms by GAAP. In the event of any change after the date hereof in GAAP, and if such change would affect the computation of any of the financial
covenants set forth in Article VIII, then the parties hereto agree to endeavor, in good faith, to agree upon an amendment to this Agreement that would adjust such financial covenants in a manner that would preserve the original intent, but
would allow compliance to be determined in accordance with the Borrower’s financial statements for periods after the change, provided that until so amended the financial covenants shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to
the change. Despite the above, for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant (including the computation of any financial covenant) contained herein: 

(a) Indebtedness of any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be carried at 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof, and
the effects of FASB ASC 825 and FASB ASC 470-20 on financial liabilities shall be disregarded; 

  
 48 

 (b) any lease that was or would have been classified as an operating lease as of the Closing Date
pursuant to GAAP will be classified as an operating lease, regardless of any change in GAAP after the Closing Date that would reclassify such lease as a Capital Lease; and 

(c) any amount received from federal or Alaska Universal Service Funds will be includable in Consolidated net income (or loss) of the Parent
and its Subsidiaries regardless of how that amount would be classified for GAAP purposes; for purposes of this clause (c), “Universal Service Funds” includes all support disbursed pursuant to: 

(i) 47 C.F.R. § Part 54 or any successor or other provisions created after the Closing Date to provide universal service support for
telecommunications services in rural, insular or high cost areas, as defined by the FCC, and 
 (ii) any Alaska program which provides
corresponding, similar, or complementary support. 
 1.4 Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be maintained pursuant to
this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio or percentage is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down
to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number). 
 1.5 Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise
specified, all references herein to the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to mean the maximum face amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all increases thereof contemplated by such Letter of Credit or the
Letter of Credit Request therefor (at the time specified therefor in such applicable Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Request and as such amount may be reduced by (a) any permanent reduction of such Letter of Credit or (b) any amount
which is drawn, reimbursed and no longer available under such Letter of Credit). 
 1.6 Covenant Compliance Generally. For
purposes of determining compliance under Article VIII, any amount in a currency other than Dollars will be converted to Dollars in a manner consistent with that used in calculating Consolidated net income in the most recent annual financial
statements of the Parent and its Subsidiaries delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with Article VII, with respect to any covenant with respect to the amount of
Indebtedness or investment in a currency other than Dollars, no breach of any basket contained therein shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of changes in rates of exchange occurring after the time such Indebtedness or investment is
incurred; provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, the result of any changes in rates of exchange occurring after the time such Indebtedness or investment is incurred shall otherwise apply in all other cases, including determining whether
any additional Indebtedness or investment may be incurred at any time in accordance with Article VII and for purposes of calculating financial ratios in accordance with Article VIII. 

1.7 Administration of Rates. The Administrative Agent does not warrant, nor accept responsibility, nor shall the Administrative
Agent have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “LIBOR Rate” or with respect to any comparable or successor rate thereto. 

1.8 Holidays. Whenever payment of a Loan to be made or taken hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day such
payment shall be due on the next Business Day (except as provided in Section 2.5) and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees, except that the Loans shall be due on the Business Day preceding the Maturity
Date if the Maturity Date is not a 

  
 49 

 
Business Day. Whenever any payment or action to be made or taken hereunder (other than payment of the Loans) shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment or action
shall be made or taken on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall not be included in computing interest or fees, if any, in connection with such payment or action. 

II. CREDIT FACILITIES 

2.1 Term and Incremental Term Loans. 

(a) Term Loan Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and relying upon the representations and warranties of the Loan
Parties set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, each Term Lender severally agrees to make Term Loans to the Borrower on the Closing Date in a single advance in an amount not to exceed $65,000,000 in the aggregate. Any portion of the Term
Loan Commitments not drawn on the Closing Date shall automatically terminate on the Closing Date. The request by the Borrower for the Term Loans shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that it shall be in compliance with
Article IV both before and after giving effect to the requested Term Loans. 
 (b) Term Loan Request. The Borrower shall
request the Term Lenders to make the Term Loans by delivering to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Loan Request, not later than 11:00 a.m., 

(i) three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, and 

(ii) one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date with respect to Base Rate Loans. 

Such Loan Request with respect to the Term Loans shall be subject to the occurrence of the Closing Date but otherwise shall be irrevocable and shall specify
the aggregate amount of the proposed Term Loans and, if applicable, the Interest Period, which amounts shall be in (x) integral multiples of $1,000,000 and not less than $2,000,000 for each Borrowing under the LIBOR Rate Option, and
(y) integral multiples of $1,000,000 and not less than $2,000,000 for each Borrowing under the Base Rate Option. 
 (c) Nature of
Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Term Loans. The failure of any Term Lender to make a Term Loan shall not relieve any other Term Lender of its obligations to make a Term Loan nor shall it impose any additional liability on any other
Lender hereunder. The Term Lenders shall have no obligation to make the Term Loans after the initial Credit Extension on the Closing Date. The Term Loan Commitments are not revolving commitments, and the Borrower shall not have the right to repay
and reborrow under Section 2.1. 

  
 50 

 (d) Repayment of Term Loans. In addition to any prepayments or repayments made pursuant to
Sections 2.12 and 2.13, the Borrower shall repay the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans in quarterly principal payments on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the following table: 

 

					
	 Quarterly Payment Dates
	  	Quarterly Repayment	 
	 December 31, 2015
	  	$	250,000	  
	 March 31, 2016 through and including December 31, 2016
	  	$	750,000	  
	 March 31, 2017 through and including December 31, 2017
	  	$	1,000,000	  
	 January 2, 2018
	  	 
 	Entire outstanding principal
balance of the Term Loans	  
  

 Notwithstanding the above, if the Extension Conditions are satisfied with respect to the Term Loan Facility
before 11:00 a.m. on December 29, 2017, the Borrower shall repay the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans in quarterly principal payments on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the following table: 

 

					
	 Quarterly Payment Dates
	  	Quarterly Repayment	 
	 December 31, 2015
	  	$	250,000	  
	 March 31, 2016 through and including December 31, 2016
	  	$	750,000	  
	 March 31, 2017 through and including December 31, 2017
	  	$	1,000,000	  
	 March 31, 2018 through and including December 31, 2018
	  	$	1,250,000	  
	 March 31, 2019 through and including March 31, 2020
	  	$	1,500,000	  
	 June 30, 2020
	  	 
 	Entire outstanding principal
balance of the Term Loans	  
  

 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the entire outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans shall be due and
payable in full in cash on the Maturity Date with respect to the Term Loan Facility. 
 (e) Incremental Term Loans. 

(i) Following the Closing Date, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Maturity Date with respect to the Term Loan Facility, request
that additional term loans be made to it 

  
 51 

 
in accordance with this Section 2.1(e) (each, an “Incremental Term Loan”) by delivering a Notice of Incremental Term Loan Borrowing to the Administrative Agent,
specifying (subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.1(e)(ii)) therein (u) the amount of the Tranche of Incremental Term Loans requested (which Tranche shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof), (v) the requested advance date of the proposed Incremental Term Loans comprising such Tranche (which shall be not less than thirty (30) days from the date of delivery of the Notice of Incremental
Term Loan Borrowing (or such shorter period of time as to which the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion)), (w) the Interest Rate Option(s) and the Applicable Margin(s) to be applicable to all Incremental Term Loans in such
Tranche, (x) the amortization for all Incremental Term Loans in such Tranche, and (y) the amount of any upfront or closing fees to be paid by the Borrower to the Lenders funding the Tranche of Incremental Term Loans requested, and
(z) the proposed use of the proceeds of such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans. Subject to the last sentence in Section 2.1(e)(iv), each Notice of Incremental Term Loan Borrowing delivered by the Borrower shall be irrevocable and
shall be binding upon all Loan Parties. At the time of delivery of each Notice of Incremental Term Loan Borrowing, the Borrower shall also deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Compliance Officer of the Borrower certifying
(1) that after giving effect to the Borrowing of such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans, the Loan Parties shall be in pro forma compliance with the covenants set forth in Article VIII as of the most recent period for which financial
statements have been delivered (and showing the calculations thereof), and (2) that no Default or Event of Default then exists or would be caused thereby. There shall be no more than five (5) Tranches of Incremental Term Loans. 

(ii) The aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Term Loan Commitments of all Tranches of Incremental Term Loans made pursuant to this
Section 2.1(e) shall not exceed $50,000,000, provided that, to the extent and only in the event that the Second Lien Loan is then outstanding, such aggregate principal amount shall not exceed the amount which is included as First Lien
Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement but without regard to any amendment to the Intercreditor Agreement that would reduce the amount of Indebtedness permitted as First Lien Obligations without the consent of the Borrower).
Repayments of the principal of any Incremental Term Loans may not be reborrowed. Each Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate or the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus such Applicable Margin as is set forth in
the Notice of Incremental Term Loan Borrowing related to such Tranche, and shall be subject to the amortization set forth in the applicable Notice of Incremental Term Loan Borrowing relating to such Tranche, provided, however, to the
extent that the Applicable Margins for Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans under any Tranche of Incremental Term Loans exceed by more than 0.50% the Applicable Margins for the existing Term Loan Facility, determined as of the effective date of the
Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans, the Applicable Margins for the existing Term Loan Facility shall be increased so that the Applicable Margins on such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans and the existing Term
Loan Facility are equal, and the final maturity date of any Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall be no earlier than June 30, 2020. The weighted average life of any Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall be equal to or greater than the
remaining life of the Term Loan Facility, determined as of the effective date of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment for such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans. The original issue discount or the upfront fees applicable to any Tranche of
Incremental Term Loans shall not be more than 1.50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Term Loans thereunder. Any covenant or Event of Default applicable to any Tranche of Incremental Term Loans that is more restrictive than the
equivalent covenant or Event of Default set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed to be applicable to all Loans hereunder. All Incremental Term Loans shall for all purposes be Obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. 

(iii) Upon receipt of a request for a Tranche of Incremental Term Loans from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole
discretion, offer one or more Term Lenders, other 

  
 52 

 
Lenders or new lenders that are Eligible Assignees the opportunity, in such amounts as the Administrative Agent shall determine, to participate in the requested Tranche of Incremental Term Loans.
The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to offer any Lender or new lender the opportunity to participate in any such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans and nothing herein shall prohibit the Administrative Agent from retaining for its own
account, as an Incremental Term Lender, all or substantially all of such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans. The Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy of each Notice of Incremental Term Loan Borrowing to such Lenders or other Persons that qualify
as an Eligible Assignee as may be determined by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion with the approval of the Borrower. Each Term Lender, other Lender or new lender that fails to respond to such a notice in writing in a form
acceptable to the Administrative Agent within the period of time provided therein shall be deemed to have elected not to participate in such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans. No Lender or new lender shall have any obligation to fund any Incremental
Term Loan, and any decision by a Lender or new lender to fund any Incremental Term Loan shall be made in its sole discretion independently from any other Lender or new lender. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Second Lien Administrative Agent
nor any of the Second Lien Lenders shall be an Incremental Term Lender. 
 (iv) If in response to the offer to participate in such Tranche
made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (iii) above, the Administrative Agent receives commitments from Lenders and/or from any other Person that (x) qualifies as an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably acceptable to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (y) has agreed to become a Lender in respect of all or a portion of the Incremental Term Loan (an “Additional Incremental Term Lender”), in excess of the requested Incremental Term
Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion but with the consent of the Borrower, to reduce and reallocate (within the minimum and maximum amounts specified by each such Lender or Additional Incremental Term Lender in
its notice to the Administrative Agent) the shares of the Incremental Term Loan of the Lenders or Additional Incremental Term Lenders willing to fund (or commit to fund) such Incremental Term Loan so that the total committed Incremental Term Loan
equals the requested Incremental Term Loan. If the Administrative Agent does not receive commitments from Lenders or Additional Incremental Term Lenders in an amount sufficient to fund the requested Incremental Term Loan, the Administrative Agent
shall so notify the Borrower and the request for such Incremental Term Loan shall be deemed automatically rescinded; provided, the Borrower may submit a replacement Notice of Incremental Term Loan Borrowing setting forth different terms for
the requested Incremental Term Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Second Lien Administrative Agent nor any of the Second Lien Lenders shall be an Additional Incremental Term Lender. 

(v) The agreement to fund any Tranche of Incremental Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.1(e) shall become effective upon the
receipt by the Administrative Agent of an Incremental Term Loan Funding Agreement signed by each Loan Party, by each Additional Incremental Term Lender and by each existing Lender who has agreed to fund such Incremental Term Loans, setting forth the
terms of the new Incremental Term Loans from the Notice of Incremental Term Loan Borrowing (To the extent of any inconsistency between the Notice of Incremental Term Loan Borrowings and the Incremental Term Loan Funding Agreement, the Incremental
Term Loan Funding Agreement shall govern.) and setting forth the new Incremental Term Loans of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Incremental Term Lender to become a party to this Agreement as a Lender and to be bound by
all the terms and provisions hereof, together with officer’s certificates and ratification agreements executed by each Loan Party and such evidence of satisfaction of all conditions set forth in Section 4.2, appropriate corporate
authorization on the part of each Loan Party with respect to the requested Incremental Term Loan, amendments to any other Loan Documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in relation to the requested Incremental Term Loan (which
amendments to the Loan Documents (other than this Agreement) the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to execute on 

  
 53 

 
behalf of the Lenders), updates or other modifications to such Real Estate Deliverables as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in relation to the requested Incremental Term
Loan, the results of lien searches from applicable jurisdictions as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, and such opinions of counsel for the Loan Parties with respect to the requested Incremental Term Loan and other assurances
as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. Furthermore, any Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall include as a condition precedent to each advance that the Borrower deliver to the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Additional
Incremental Term Lender a certificate of a Compliance Officer of the Borrower certifying that as of the date of such advance under such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans no Specified First Lien Default (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement)
then exists or would be caused thereby. 
 (vi) In addition to any prepayments or repayments made pursuant to Sections 2.12 and
2.13, the principal of the Incremental Term Loans of each Tranche shall be repaid on such dates and in such amounts as may be set forth in the Incremental Term Loan Funding Agreement for such Tranche, to be applied to the unpaid principal
amount of the Incremental Term Loans for such Tranche for which such payment relates. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the entire outstanding principal balance of the Incremental Term Loans shall be due and payable in full in cash on
the applicable Maturity Date. 
 (vii) The Administrative Agent shall record relevant information regarding each Tranche of Incremental
Term Loans (including information with respect to Additional Incremental Term Lenders) in the Register in accordance with Section 11.7(c); provided, however, that failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such
recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of any Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Term Loan. 

(f) Agreed Extension. The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders) on
or before 11:00 a.m. on December 29, 2017, request that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders extend the Final Termination Date to June 30, 2020 (any such extension, an “Agreed Extension”). The Administrative Agent and
each Lender hereby agrees to extend the Final Termination Date as set forth above, at the request of the Borrower, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions (as determined by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) as of
the date of such Agreed Extension: 
 (i) the aggregate principal amount of Existing Parent Notes then outstanding shall be equal to or
less than $30,000,000, 
 (ii) except with respect to the Existing Parent Notes then outstanding (subject to the cap described in clause
(i) above), no Parent Notes shall have a maturity date prior to December 31, 2020, 
 (iii) at least five (5) Business
Days preceding the date of such Agreed Extension, the Borrower shall have deposited, or maintained on deposit, in the Full Dominion Account funds equal to not less than 103% of the sum of (a) the aggregate principal amount of all Existing
Parent Notes then outstanding, (b) the aggregate accrued and unpaid interest on such Existing Parent Notes as of such date and (c) the aggregate amount of interest that will accrue on such Existing Parent Notes on or before the Existing
Parent Notes Maturity Date; provided however, that if all or any portion of the funds in the Full Dominion Account are held as Cash Equivalents pursuant to Section 13.1(c), the Borrower shall have deposited, or maintained on
deposit, funds equal to not less than 105% of such sum, 
 (iv) all Parent Notes then outstanding shall have been issued on (x) terms
of subordination no less favorable to the Lenders than the subordination terms contained in the Existing 

  
 54 

 
Parent Notes Documents, (y) that bear interest at a rate not in excess of the then applicable market interest rate for Indebtedness of such type for similarly situated borrowers and
(z) terms and conditions substantially similar and, in any event, no less favorable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole, to the terms and conditions reflected in Existing Parent Notes Documents in effect on the Closing
Date, provided that the Parent Notes need not contain any features involving a conversion to equity, 
 (v) after giving effect to such
Agreed Extension, the Loan Parties shall be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Article VIII, calculated on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter of the Parent for which financial statements have
been delivered, 
 (vi) no Default or Event of Default shall then exist or be caused by such Agreed Extension, 

(vii) all representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects,
except that such representations and warranties that are qualified in this Agreement by reference to materiality or a Material Adverse Change shall be true and correct in all respects on the date of such Agreed Extension after giving effect thereto
(or, if such representation or warranty makes reference to an earlier date, as of such earlier date), 
 (viii) the Loan Parties shall have
a Liquidity Balance of not less than $10,000,000 on the date of such Agreed Extension; provided that, to the extent and only in the event that the Second Lien is then outstanding, the Loan parties shall have: (A) a Liquidity Balance of
not less than $20,000,000 on the date of such Agreed Extension and (B) an average Liquidity Balance over the thirty (30) consecutive calendar days immediately preceding the date of such Agreed Extension of not less than $25,000,000, 

(ix) to the extent and only in the event that the Second Lien Loan is then outstanding, after giving effect to such Agreed Extension, the
Borrower shall have confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent that the Extension Conditions (as defined in the Second Lien Credit Agreement) have been satisfied and that the Final Termination Date (as defined in the Second Lien Credit
Agreement) has been, or concurrent with the Agreed Extension will be, extended to no earlier than September 30, 2020, 
 (x) the
Administrative Agent shall have received a duly completed, executed Solvency Certificate signed by a Compliance Officer of each of the Loan Parties in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and accompanied by such
supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, and

certificate executed by a Compliance Officer of the Borrower, which certificate shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and accompanied by such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent shall
reasonably request, certifying (and showing the calculations thereof to the extent applicable) as to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.1(f) (collectively, the “Extension Conditions”). 

2.2 Revolving Loans. 

(a) Revolving Loan Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties of the
Loan Parties set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower at any 

  
 55 

 
time or from time to time on or after the Closing Date to, but not including, the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, provided, that after giving effect to each
such Revolving Loan (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loans shall not exceed its Available Revolving Commitment and (ii) the Revolving Credit Facility Usage shall not exceed the Revolving
Commitments. Each request by the Borrower for a Revolving Loan shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that it shall be in compliance with the proviso at the end of the preceding sentence and with Article IV after giving effect
to the requested Revolving Loan. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.2. 

(b) Revolving Loan Requests. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Maturity Date request

(1) Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to Base Rate Loans, a duly completed Loan Request. Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the aggregate amount of the proposed Revolving Loans comprising
each Borrowing, and, if applicable, the Interest Period, which amounts shall be in (x) integral multiples of $1,000,000 and not less than $2,000,000 for each Borrowing under the LIBOR Rate Option, and (y) integral multiples of $500,000 and

 (c) Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to
Revolving Loans. Each Revolving Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.2 in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. The obligations of each Revolving Lender hereunder are
several. The failure of any Revolving Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrower to any other party nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Revolving Lender to perform its
obligations hereunder. Other than Revolving Loans in repayment of Swing Line Loans in accordance with Section 2.3(e) and/or Reimbursement Obligations in accordance with Section 2.9(c), the Revolving Lenders shall have no
obligation to make Revolving Loans hereunder on or after the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility. 
 (d)
Repayment of Revolving Loans. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans, together with all outstanding interest thereon
and unpaid fees with respect thereto, on the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility. 
 2.3 Swing Line

 (a) Swing Line Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the agreements of the
Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section 2.3, the Swing Line Lender shall make Swing Line Loans to the Borrower at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date to, but not including, the Maturity Date with respect to the
Revolving Credit Facility; provided, that after giving effect to any such Swing Line Loan, (i) the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the Swing Line Commitment, and (ii) the Revolving Credit Facility Usage shall
not exceed the Revolving Commitments. Each request by the Borrower for a Swing Line Loan shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that it is in compliance with the proviso at the end of the preceding sentence and with Article IV
after giving effect to the requested Swing Line Loan. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Line Loans in accordance with to this
Section 2.3. Unless the CoBank Cash Management Agreement is in effect and the Borrower has elected pursuant to its rule set instructions or similar document to have its accounts that are subject to the CoBank Cash Management Agreement
settle 

  
 56 

 
against the Swing Line Loan and such election has not been modified, the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. If at any time
the aggregate principal balance of the Swing Line Loans then outstanding exceeds the Swing Line Commitment, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested the Revolving Lenders to make Revolving Loans in the amount of the difference in the manner
and pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2(b). 
 (b) Cash Management Arrangements. The Borrower and the Swing Line Lender
may enter into a cash management agreement (including the CoBank Cash Management Agreement) providing for the automatic advance by the Swing Line Lender of Swing Line Loans under the conditions set forth in such agreement, which conditions shall be
in addition to the conditions set forth herein and which shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. 

(c) Swing Line Loan Requests. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Maturity Date with
respect to the Revolving Credit Facility request that the Swing Line Lender make Swing Line Loans by delivery to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) not later than 11:00 a.m. (or such later time as the applicable cash
management agreement, if any, may permit or otherwise as the Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion may agree) on the proposed Borrowing Date of a duly completed and executed Loan Request, by telephonic request promptly followed by a duly
completed and executed Loan Request, or by such other method of request as may be provided for in any applicable cash management agreement. Each such request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the proposed Borrowing Date and the principal amount
of such Swing Line Loan. Minimum borrowing amounts shall not apply to Swing Line Loans, except as provided for in any applicable cash management agreement. Promptly after receipt of any such request for a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will
confirm with the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent received a copy of the same and, if not, provide the Administrative Agent with information regarding the requested Swing Line Loan. 

(d) Making Swing Line Loans. So long as the Swing Line Lender has not received timely telephonic or written notice from the
Administrative Agent that one or more conditions precedent to the making of a Credit Extension under Section 4.2 have not been satisfied, the Swing Line Lender, after receipt by it of a Loan Request in accordance with
Section 2.3(c), shall fund such Swing Line Loan to the Borrower in Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m. or as otherwise agreed in any applicable cash management agreement on the Borrowing
Date; provided, that at any time that the CoBank Cash Management Agreement is in effect and the Borrower has elected pursuant to its rule set instructions or similar document to have its accounts that are subject to the CoBank Cash Management
Agreement settle against the Swing Line Loan and such election has not been modified, the Swing Line Lender may waive, in its sole discretion, any one or more of the conditions precedent in Section 4.2 with respect to the making of any
Swing Line Loan. 
 (e) Borrowings to Repay Swing Line Loans. The Swing Line Lender may, at its option, exercisable at any time for
any reason whatsoever, request that the Administrative Agent demand repayment of the Swing Line Loans. Upon such request, the Administrative Agent shall demand repayment of the Swing Line Loans, and each Revolving Lender shall make a Revolving Loan
in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Line Loans, plus, if the Swing Line Lender has so requested, accrued interest thereon, provided, that no Revolving
Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Loans in excess of its Available Revolving Commitment. Revolving Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have been
properly requested in accordance with Section 2.2(b) without regard to any of the requirements of that provision. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligations to fund Swing Line Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.2(e) and/or to acquire participations pursuant to Section 2.3(f) in respect of Swing Line Loans are absolute and 

  
 57 

 
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or any failure by the Borrower to satisfy any
of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2. The Administrative Agent shall provide notice to the Revolving Lenders that such Revolving Loans are to be made under this Section 2.3 and of the apportionment among the Revolving
Lenders, and the Revolving Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Revolving Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 2.2(b) are then satisfied) by the time requested by the Swing Line Lender and
designated in such notice from the Administrative Agent, which shall not be earlier than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day next after the date the Revolving Lenders receive such notice from the Administrative Agent. 

(f) Risk Participations in Swing Line Loans. Immediately upon the making of each Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed
to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata
Share of the principal amount of such Swing Line Loan, and such interest and participation may be recovered from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon at the Alternate Base Rate for each day during the period commencing on the date of
demand and ending on the date such amount is received (subject to the limitation in clause (e) above that no Revolving Lender shall be obligated in any event to make Revolving Loans in excess of its Available Revolving Commitment). 

(g) Repayment of Swing Line Loans. On the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, if not sooner demanded, the
Borrower shall repay in full the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loans, together will all accrued and unpaid interest and any applicable fees. 

2.4 Interest Rate Provisions. The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Base
Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply to different Borrowings at any time outstanding
and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of any Borrowing (subject to minimum amounts set forth in Sections 2.1(b) and 2.2(b)); provided that there shall not be at any one
time outstanding more than five (5) Borrowings of LIBOR Rate Loans, and provided, further, that if a Default or an Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew any
LIBOR Rate Loans. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s Maximum Rate. 

(a) Interest Rate Options. Swing Line Loans and all other Obligations not constituting Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans or Revolving
Loans shall bear interest based upon the Base Rate Option. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.4, the Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Term Loans,
Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Loans: 
 (i) Base Rate Option: An option to pay interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal
to the Alternate Base Rate in effect as of any date of determination plus the Applicable Margin as of such date; or 
 (ii) LIBOR
Rate Option: An option to pay interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate with respect to the applicable Interest Period and as in effect as of any date of determination plus the Applicable Margin as of such
date. 
 (b) Day Count Basis. Interest and fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days
elapsed (which results in more interest or fees, as the case may be, being paid than if calculated on the basis of a 365-day year); provided that interest with respect to Base Rate Loans incurring interest based on the Prime Rate shall be
calculated on the basis of a 365/366-day year. The date of funding or conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan and the first day of an Interest Period shall be included in the calculation of interest. The date of payment of any Loan and
the last day of an Interest Period shall be excluded from the calculation of interest; provided, if a Loan is repaid on the same day that it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be charged. 

  
 58 

 2.5 Interest Periods. In order to convert a Base Rate Loan (other than Swing Line
Loans) or LIBOR Rate Loan or continue a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed, written request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit H (each, a “Conversion or Continuation
Notice”) not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) with respect to a conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Rate Loan, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date of such conversion or continuation and
(ii) with respect to a conversion to a Base Rate Loan, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed effective date of such conversion. The Conversion or Continuation Notice shall specify (i) which Borrowings (including the
principal amount thereof) are subject to such request, and, in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loan to be converted or continued, the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, (ii) the proposed effective date of such conversion or
continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) whether the Borrower is requesting a continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans or a conversion of Borrowings from one interest rate option to the other interest rate option, and (iv) if a
continuation of or conversion to LIBOR Rate Loans is requested, the requested Interest Period with respect thereto. In addition, the following provisions shall apply to any continuation of or conversion of any Borrowings: 

(a) Amount of Loans. After giving effect to such conversion or continuation, each Borrowing of Revolving Loans and Incremental Term
Loans shall be in an amount no less than the applicable minimum amount for Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.2(b) or in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Funding Agreement. 

(b) Commencement of Interest Period. In the case of any borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Rate Loan, the
Interest Period shall commence on the date of advance or continuation of, or conversion to, any LIBOR Rate Loan and, in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the date on which the
immediately preceding Interest Period expires. Upon a conversion from a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, interest at the Base Rate Option shall commence on the last day of the existing Interest Period. 

(c) Selection of Interest Rate Options. If the Borrower elects to continue a LIBOR Rate Loan but fails to select a new Interest Period
to apply thereto, then a one month Interest Period automatically shall apply. If the Borrower fails to duly request the continuation of any Borrowing consisting of LIBOR Rate Loans on or before the date specified and otherwise in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 2.5, then such LIBOR Rate Loan automatically shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan, interest at the Base Rate Option shall commence on the last day of the existing Interest Period. 

2.6 Making of Loans. 

(a) Notifications and Payments. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Sections
2.1(b), 2.1(e), or 2.2(b) notify the applicable Lenders of such Class of Loan of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying the information provided by the Borrower and the apportionment among the Lenders of the requested Loan as
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, as applicable. Each applicable 

  
 59 

 
Lender shall remit the principal amount of their Pro Rata Share of the Loan to the Administrative Agent such that the Administrative Agent is able to, and the Administrative Agent shall, to the
extent the Lenders have made funds available to it for such purpose and subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, as applicable, fund such Loan to the Borrower in Dollars and immediately available
funds to the Borrower’s account specified in the Loan Request prior to 2:00 p.m. on the proposed Borrowing Date. 
 (b) Pro Rata
Treatment of Lenders. The borrowing of any Class of Loan shall be allocated to each Lender of such Class of Loan according to its Pro Rata Share thereof, and each selection of, conversion to or renewal of any Interest Rate Option and each
payment or prepayment by the Borrower with respect to principal and interest due from the Borrower hereunder to the Lenders with respect to the applicable Class of Commitments and Loan, shall (except as otherwise may be provided with respect to a
Defaulting Lender and except as provided in Section 2.3(e), Section 3.1 or Section 3.6) be payable ratably among the Lenders of such Class of Loan entitled to such payment in accordance with the amount of
principal and interest then due or payable such Lenders as set forth in this Agreement. 
 (c) Presumptions by the Administrative
Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed Borrowing Date that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of any Loan, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, as the case may be, 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 such Loan 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 a payment to be made
by 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 and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower,
the interest rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Loan to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without
prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrower and such Lender pay such interest for the same period, the Administrative Agent promptly shall
remit to the Borrower the amount of interest paid by Borrower for such overlapping period. Nothing in this Section 2.6(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including the provisions of Section 2.14,
shall be deemed to require the Administrative Agent (or any other Lender) to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Administrative
Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. 
 2.7 Fees. 

(a) Unused Commitment Fee. 

(i) Accruing from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Revolving Lender according to its Pro Rata Share, a nonrefundable unused commitment fee (each a “Unused Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Unused Commitment Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, as the case
may be, and actual days elapsed) multiplied by the average daily result of: 
 (A) the Revolving Commitments minus 

  
 60 

 (B) the Revolving Loans minus 

(C) the Letter of Credit Obligations; 

provided however, with respect to the Unused Commitment Fee for the account of the Swing Line Lender, such fee shall be equal to the Applicable Unused
Commitment Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) multiplied by the average daily difference between the Revolving Commitment and the Revolving Credit Facility Usage. Subject to clause
(ii) below, all Unused Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. 
 (ii) Any Unused Commitment
Fee accrued with respect to the corresponding Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender is a
Defaulting Lender (except to the extent that such Unused Commitment Fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time); and no Unused Commitment Fee shall accrue with respect to a Defaulting Lender while such Lender is
a Defaulting Lender. 
 (b) Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such other fees as agreed in the Fee
Letter. 
 2.8 Notes. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans,
Swing Line Loans, Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans made to it by each Lender, together with interest thereon, shall, at the request of the applicable Lender, be evidenced by a Revolving Note, a Swing Line Note, Term Loan Note and/or an
Incremental Term Loan Note, as the case may be, dated the Closing Date, the effective date, or the date of such request, as applicable, payable to the order of such Lender in a face amount equal to the Revolving Commitment, Swing Line Commitment,
Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, of such Lender. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay, to the order of each of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and the Swing Line
Lender, as applicable, the Loans and other Obligations as provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Borrower acknowledges that it is obligated and fully liable for the amount due under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
The Lenders or any subsequent holder of the Loans and other Secured Obligations has the right to sue hereon and obtain a judgment against the Borrower for satisfaction of the amount due, either before or after a judicial foreclosure of any Mortgage
under Alaska Stat. Sec. 09.45.170-09.45.220. 
 2.9 Letter of Credit Subfacility. 

(a) Issuance of Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including
Section 4.2, and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and in reliance on the agreements of the Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section 2.9, each
Issuing Lender severally agrees to issue standby and commercial letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower and, if applicable, any other Loan Party on any Business Day from the Closing Date through
but not including the Letter of Credit Expiration Date. The Borrower may at any time prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date request the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or an amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, by delivering to an
Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a completed application and agreement for letters of credit, or request for such amendment or extension, as applicable, in such form as such Issuing Lender may specify from time to time (each,
a “Letter of Credit Request”) by no later than 11:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by an Issuing Lender, in advance of the proposed date of issuance, amendment or extension.
Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Request, such Issuing Lender shall provide the Administrative Agent with 

  
 61 

 
a copy thereof. Unless such Issuing Lender has received notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of
issuance, amendment or extension of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions in Article IV is not satisfied, then such Issuing Lender will issue a Letter of Credit or agree to such amendment or extension. Each
Letter of Credit shall (A) have a maximum maturity of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, provided, that a Letter of Credit may contain renewal terms satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender and (B) in no event expire
later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date. At no time shall (i) the Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Lender exceed such Issuing Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment, (ii) the Letter of Credit Obligations exceed the Letter
of Credit Sublimit or (ii) the Revolving Credit Facility Usage exceed the Revolving Commitments. Each request by the Borrower for the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower
that it shall be in compliance with the preceding sentence and with Article IV after giving effect to the requested issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit. Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any
amendment to a Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. The Borrower unconditionally
guarantees all obligations of any other Loan Party with respect to Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Lender for the account of such Loan Party. 

(b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Revolving Lenders a fee
(the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed), which fee shall be computed on the daily average Letter of Credit Obligations and
shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on the Maturity Date. The Borrower shall also pay to each Issuing Lender for such Issuing Lender’s sole account a fronting fee in an amount equal to 0.125% per annum
of the face amount of each Letter of Credit, as well as each Issuing Lender’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit as each Issuing Lender may generally charge or incur from time
to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, amendment (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit. 

(c) Disbursements, Reimbursement. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder, without recourse or warranty, in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro
Rata Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively. 
 (i) In
the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the applicable Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower
shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) such Issuing Lender prior to 12:00 Noon on each date that an amount is paid by such Issuing Lender
under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”), or if such notice was received after 11:00 a.m. on a Drawing Date, then by 10:00 a.m. on the Business Day immediately following such Drawing Date, by paying to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender an amount equal to the amount so paid by such Issuing Lender. In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse such Issuing Lender (through the Administrative Agent) for the full amount of any
drawing under any Letter of Credit by date and time required in accordance with the foregoing sentence, then the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that
Revolving Loans be made by the Revolving Lenders under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Business Day immediately following the Drawing Date, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of

  
 62 

 
the Revolving Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 other than any notice requirements. Any notice given by the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Lender
pursuant to this Section 2.9(c)(i) may be by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

(ii) Each Revolving Lender shall upon the Business Day immediately following a Drawing Date with respect to which notice was delivered by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.9(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount of the drawing. So long as
the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 have been satisfied or waived in accordance with this Agreement, each Revolving Lender that makes such funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan at the Base Rate Option;
provided, that if any conditions set forth in Section 4.2 have not been satisfied or waived in accordance with this Agreement, each Revolving Lender shall remain obligated to fund its Pro Rata Share of such unreimbursed amount and
such amount (each a “Participation Advance”) shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in the applicable Letter of Credit Borrowing resulting from such drawing in accordance with
Section 2.9(c)(iii). If any Revolving Lender so notified fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount by no later than
12:00 Noon on such date, then interest shall accrue on such Revolving Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from such Business Day to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds
Effective Rate during the first three (3) days following the date such amount was due and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans thereafter. The Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender will
promptly give notice (as described in Section 2.9(c)(i) above) of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to
enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this clause (ii). 
 (iii)
With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not fully reimbursed by Borrower and is not refinanced by Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.9(c)(i) because of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions set
forth in Section 4.2, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable Issuing Lender a borrowing (each, a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in an amount equal to the unreimbursed portion of such drawing.
Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Loans under the Base Rate Option. 

(d) Repayment of Participation Advances. 

(i) Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender of immediately available funds
from the Borrower (A) in reimbursement of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made a Participation Advance to the Administrative Agent, or (B) in payment of interest on
such a payment made by such Issuing Lender under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Issuing Lender will pay to each Revolving Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of
such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such funds, except the Administrative Agent shall retain for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount of the Pro Rata Share of such funds of any Revolving Lender that did not make a Participation
Advance in respect of such payment by such Issuing Lender. 
 (ii) If the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to any
Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any 

  
 63 

 
portion of any payment made by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.9 in reimbursement of a payment made under
the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Revolving Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent, forthwith return to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount of its Pro Rata Share of any amounts
so returned by the Administrative Agent plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Revolving Lender to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds
Effective Rate in effect from time to time. 
 (e) Documentation. Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of each Issuing
Lender’s application and agreement for letters of credit and such Issuing Lender’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s own. In
the event of a conflict between such application or agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of its gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final decision by a
court of competent jurisdiction, no Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any
modifications, amendments or supplements thereto. 
 (f) Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. Each Revolving
Lender’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Loans or Participation Advances, as contemplated by this Section 2.9, as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and the Obligations of the Borrower
to reimburse an Issuing Lender upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.9 under all circumstances, including

Letter of Credit Borrowing and the obligation of the Revolving Lenders to make Participation Advances under this Section 2.9; 

(iii) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit; 

(iv) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by any Loan Party or any Lender against any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or the
existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, crossclaim, defense or other right that any Loan Party or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary, successor beneficiary any transferee or assignee of any Letter of Credit or
the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Lender or its respective Affiliates or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or
any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured); 

(v) the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on) or the form of or lack

relating to a Letter of Credit; 
 (viii) any failure by an Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates to issue any Letter of Credit in the
form requested by any Loan Party, unless such Issuing Lender has received written notice from such Loan Party of such failure within three Business Days after such Issuing Lender shall have furnished such Loan Party and the Administrative Agent a
copy of such Letter of Credit and such error is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice; 
 (ix) any
adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any Loan Party or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party;

(xi) the occurrence or continuance of an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Loan Party; 

(xii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 

(xiii) the fact that the Maturity Date shall have passed or this Agreement or the Commitments hereunder shall have been terminated; and 

(xiv) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 

(g) Liability for Acts and Omissions. As between any Loan Party and an Issuing Lender, such Loan Party assumes all risks of the acts
and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, an Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for any of the following, including
any losses or damages to any Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom: 
 (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy,
genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate,
fraudulent or forged (even if an Issuing Lender or its Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); 

  
 65 

 (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to
transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; 

(iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to
comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and
any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; 
 (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or
delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; 
 (v) errors in
interpretation of technical terms; 
 (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a
drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; 
 (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter
of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or 
 (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control
of an Issuing Lender or its Affiliates, as applicable, including any act or omission of any Governmental Authority, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of such Issuing Lender’s or its Affiliates rights
or powers hereunder. 
 Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve an Issuing Lender from liability for such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct or breach in bad faith by such Issuing Lender of its obligations under this Agreement (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment) in connection with actions or omissions described in
such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall an Issuing Lender or its Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including
without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit. 

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, an Issuing Lender and each of its Affiliates: 

(i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by such Issuing Lender or such Affiliate to have been authorized or
given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit; 
 (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on
their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; 
 (iii) may honor a previously
dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such
presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by such Issuing Lender or its Affiliate; 

  
 66 

 (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation
or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any
way with the relevant Letter of Credit; 
 (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or
practices of the place where such bank is located; and 
 (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on such Issuing Lender or its
Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in
connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit. 

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by such Issuing
Lender or its Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Lender or its Affiliates under any
resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender. 
 (h) Issuing Lender Reporting Requirements. Each Issuing Lender shall, on the
first Business Day of each month, provide to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower a schedule of the Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, showing the date of issuance of each Letter of
Credit, the account party, the original face amount (if any), and the expiration date of any Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during the preceding month, and any other information relating to such Letter of Credit that the Administrative
Agent may request. 
 (i) UCP and ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender, the Borrower and the
beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, (i) the rules of the International Standby Practices as most recently published from time to time by the International Chamber of Commerce shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit and (ii) the rules
of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits as most recently published from time to time by the International Chamber of Commerce shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. 

(j) Illegality. If, at any time, it becomes unlawful for an Issuing Lender to comply with any of its obligations under any Letter of
Credit (including, but not limited to, as a result of any Sanctions), the obligations of such Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit shall be suspended (and all corresponding rights shall cease to accrue) until such time as it may
again become lawful for such Issuing Lender to comply with its obligations under such Letter of Credit, and such Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any losses that the Borrower or its Subsidiaries may incur as a result. 

2.10 Payments. 

(a) Payments Generally. All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Unused Commitment Fees, Letter of
Credit Fees, other fees referred to in Section 2.7 or other fees or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of
which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office
for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders to which they are owed, in each 

  
 67 

 
case in Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to each Issuing Lender, Swing Line Lender and/or applicable Lenders in
immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and
interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement and shall be deemed an “account stated.” 
 (b)
Payments by the Borrower; Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. 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 Lenders 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 Lenders, 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 Lenders, 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 Lender, 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. 

2.11 Interest Payment Dates. Interest on Base Rate Loans shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.
Interest on LIBOR Rate Loans shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) months, also on the date that is the three-month anniversary of the first day of
such Interest Period. Interest on mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 2.13 shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due
and payable on demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated Maturity Date, upon an accelerated Maturity Date or otherwise). 

2.12 Voluntary Prepayments and Reduction of Commitments. 

(a) Right to Prepay. The Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part without
premium or penalty (except as provided in Sections 11.3, 3.1 and 3.5). Whenever the Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loans (other than Swing Line Loans), it shall provide a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent
by 11:00 a.m. at least (A) three (3) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans, or (B) one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans, in each case, setting forth the following
information: 
 (i) the Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made; 

(ii) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment among Class of Loan and Borrowings; and 

(iii) the total principal amount of such prepayment, which shall not be less than the lesser of the following with respect to any Class of
Loan: (A) the then outstanding principal amount of such Class of Loan, or (B) $1,000,000 (provided, that the amount of any prepayment to which this Section 2.12(a)(iii)(B) applies shall be in integral multiples of $500,000).

  
 68 

 Except as otherwise expressly provided herein with respect to refinancings, all prepayment
notices shall be irrevocable. The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount except with respect to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, shall be due and payable on
the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (x) all Revolving Loan prepayments permitted pursuant to this
Section 2.12 shall be applied to the unpaid principal of the Revolving Loans as the Borrower may direct and (y) all Term Loan and Incremental Term Loan prepayments permitted pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be applied
pro rata to the unpaid installments of principal of the Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans in the inverse order of scheduled maturities (for the avoidance of doubt, including pro rata application to any balloon payment due and payable on the
Maturity Date). If the Borrower prepays a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Class and/or Borrowing that the Borrower intends to prepay or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then such prepayment shall be applied
first, ratably to all outstanding Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans, second, ratably to all outstanding Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans, third, ratably to all outstanding Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans
that are Base Rate Loans, and fourth, ratably to all outstanding Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans. Any prepayment hereunder shall include all interest and fees due and payable with respect to the Loan being
prepaid and shall be subject to the Borrower’s Obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 3.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayment notice delivered in connection with any proposed refinancing of all of the Credit
Facilities may be, if expressly so stated in the applicable prepayment notice, contingent upon the consummation of such refinancing, and (x) the repayment date therefor may be amended from time to time by notice from the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent and/or (y) such prepayment notice may be revoked by the Borrower in the event such refinancing is not consummated (provided that the failure of such contingency shall not relieve the Borrower from its obligations in
respect thereof under Section 3.5). 
 (b) Reduction of Revolving Commitment. 

(i) In addition to the commitment reductions pursuant to Section 2.12(b)(ii) and 2.13(g), the Revolving Commitments shall
be permanently reduced and terminated in full on the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility. Any outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans not sooner due and payable will become due and payable on such Maturity Date
and shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid, any applicable fees pursuant to Section 3.5 and any other fees required hereunder. 

(ii) The Borrower shall have the right at any time after the Closing Date upon five (5) days’ prior written notice to the
Administrative Agent to permanently reduce (ratably among the Revolving Lenders in proportion to their Pro Rata Shares) the Revolving Commitments, in a minimum amount of $2,000,000 and whole multiples of $1,000,000, or to terminate completely the
Revolving Commitments, without penalty or premium except as hereinafter set forth; provided that any such reduction or termination shall be accompanied by prepayment of the Revolving Loans and Cash Collateralization of the Letters of Credit,
together with outstanding Unused Commitment Fees and Letter of Credit Fees, and the full amount of interest accrued on the principal sum to be prepaid (and all amounts referred to in Section 3.5 hereof) to the extent necessary to cause
the aggregate Revolving Credit Facility Usage after giving effect to such prepayments and Cash Collateralization to be equal to or less than the Revolving Commitments as so reduced or terminated. Any notice to reduce the Revolving Commitments under
this Section 2.12(b)(ii) shall be irrevocable. 

  
 69 

 2.13 Mandatory Prepayments. 

(a) Overadvance. 
 (i)
If the Revolving Credit Facility Usage at any time exceeds the Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans (or Cash Collateralize Letter of Credit Obligations, if prepayment in full of the Revolving Loans is not sufficient)
in such amounts as shall be necessary so that Revolving Credit Facility Usage does not exceed the Revolving Commitments. 
 (ii) If the
aggregate amount of the Incremental Term Loans for any Tranche at any time exceeds the Incremental Term Loan Commitments for such Tranche, the Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans or such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans in such amounts as shall be
necessary so that the Incremental Term Loans of such Tranche does not exceed the applicable Commitments. 
 (b) Disposition of
Assets. Immediately upon the receipt by any Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof of the Net Cash Proceeds from any Disposition not expressly permitted by clauses (a) through (j) of Section 7.8, the Borrower shall
prepay, or cause such other Loan Party or Subsidiary to prepay, Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Disposition; provided that, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or would result therefrom, the Borrower shall not be required to prepay the Obligations with such Net Cash Proceeds: 
 (i) to
the extent such Net Cash Proceeds, together with all other such Net Cash Proceeds for Dispositions, does not exceeds $5,000,000 in the aggregate for such fiscal year or 

(ii) such Net Cash Proceeds are reinvested in productive assets (other than inventory) of a kind then used or usable in the business of any
Loan Party or such Subsidiary, within one (1) year of the receipt thereof. 
 All such proceeds shall be paid and applied in accordance with
Sections 2.13(g) and (h). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such mandatory prepayment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute a cure of any Default or Event of Default arising as a result of the Disposition giving
rise to such prepayment obligation. 
 (c) Casualty Events. Immediately upon the receipt by any Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof of
the Net Cash Proceeds of any Casualty Event or series of related Casualty Events affecting any property of any Loan Party, the Borrower shall prepay, or cause such other Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof to prepay, Obligations in an aggregate amount
equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Casualty Event(s); provided that, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom, the Borrower shall not be required to prepay the
Obligations with such Net Cash Proceeds: 
 (i) to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds, together with all other such Net Cash Proceeds for
Casualty Event(s), does not exceeds $5,000,000 in the aggregate for such fiscal year; or 
 (ii) such Net Cash Proceeds are used for
repairs to or replacements of the property subject to such Casualty Event or reinvested in productive assets (other than inventory unless such Net Cash Proceeds result from a Casualty Event with respect to inventory) of a kind then used or usable in
the business of any Loan Party or such Subsidiary, within one (1) year of the receipt thereof. 

  
 70 

 All such proceeds shall be paid and applied in accordance with Sections 2.13(g) and (h).
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such mandatory prepayment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute a cure of any Default or Event of Default arising as a result of such Casualty Event(s) giving rise to such prepayment
obligation. 
 (d) Equity Issuances. To the extent and only in the event that the Second Lien Loan is outstanding, immediately upon
receipt by any Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof of the Net Cash Proceeds from any Equity Issuance, other than Equity Issuances expressly permitted under Section 7.13(a), (b), (c) or (e), the Borrower shall
prepay, or cause such other Loan Party or Subsidiary to prepay, Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Equity Issuance. All such proceeds shall be paid and applied in accordance with Sections 2.13(g)
and (h). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such mandatory prepayment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute a cure of any Default or Event of Default arising as a result of such Equity Issuance giving rise to such
prepayment obligation. 
 (e) Debt Incurrence. Immediately upon the receipt by any Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof of the Net Cash
Proceeds of any Debt Incurrence, other than a Debt Incurrence permitted under Section 7.1, the Borrower shall prepay, or cause such other Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof to prepay, Obligations in an amount equal to 100% of the amount of
such Net Cash Proceeds. All such proceeds shall be paid and applied in accordance with Sections 2.13(g) and (h). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any such prepayment shall not constitute or be deemed to be a cure of any
Default or Event of Default arising as a result of such Debt Incurrence. 
 (f) Excess Cash Flow. Within five (5) Business Days
of delivery of the Borrower’s annual audited financial statements pursuant to Section 6.1 for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016 and for each fiscal year ending thereafter during the term hereof but in any event no later
than one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each year during the term hereof, the Borrower shall prepay Obligations as follows in an aggregate amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the immediately preceding fiscal year (each a
“Mandatory Prepayment of Excess Cash Flow”); provided however, that should the Net Total Leverage Ratio on the last day of such fiscal year be less than 3.00 to 1.00, such percentage shall be reduced to 25%. All such proceeds shall
be paid and applied in accordance with Sections 2.13(g) and (h). 
 (g) Application Among Obligations. All prepayments
pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be applied, first to prepay any Overadvances that may be outstanding, pro rata, second to prepay the Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans, pro rata (to be applied to installments of the
Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans in the inverse order of scheduled maturities and, for the avoidance of doubt, including pro rata application to any balloon payment due and payable on the Maturity Date) and third to prepay the Revolving
Loans (including Swing Line Loans) without a corresponding reduction in the Revolving Commitments and to Cash Collateralize outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations. 

(h) Interest Payments; Application Among Interest Rate Options. All prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be
accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest upon the principal amount of each such prepayment. Subject to Section 2.13(g), all prepayments required pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall first be applied to Base Rate Loans, then
to LIBOR Rate Loans. In accordance with Section 3.5, the Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders for any loss or expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against LIBOR Rate Loans on any day
other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period. 
 (i) SBA Matters. Upon the request of the Second Lien Administrative
Agent or any Second Lien Lender under Section 2.13(g) of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, the Borrower shall 

  
 71 

 
repay the Secured Obligations in full, in immediately available funds, in the event that the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (or any other Loan Party) changes the nature of its business
within one (1) year after the Closing Date in a manner that would cause the Second Lien Administrative Agent or any Second Lien Lender to have provided funds to the Borrower pursuant to the Second Lien Credit Agreement in violation of 13 C.F.R.
§§107.700-107.760 (as amended from time to time); provided, however, if the Administrative Agent receives evidence reasonably satisfactory to it that the SBA has approved the request of the Second Lien Administrative Agent or
such Second Lien Lender to retain its notes and investment under the Second Lien Credit Facility, the Borrower shall not be required to make any payment pursuant to this Section 2.13(i). All such proceeds shall be paid and applied in
accordance with Sections 2.13(g) and (h). 
 (j) No Implied Consent. Provisions contained in this
Section 2.13 for the application of proceeds of certain transactions shall not be deemed to constitute consent of the Lenders to transactions that are not otherwise permitted by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents. 

2.14 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff, counterclaim or banker’s lien,
by receipt of voluntary payment, by realization upon security, or by any other non-pro rata source or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender
receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro-rata share of the amount such Lender is entitled hereunder, then the Lender receiving such greater
proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable,
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 other Obligations owing them, provided that: 

(a) 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 or other amounts except as required by Law, to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase; and 

(b) the provisions of this Section 2.14 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment (including the application of
funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) made by the Loan Parties pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of the Loan Documents or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale
of a participation in any of its Loans or Participation Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.14 shall apply). 

Each Loan Party 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 each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such
participation. 
 2.15 Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 
 (i)
Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and
Section 11.1. 

  
 72 

 (ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other
amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article IX or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender
pursuant to Section 9.2(c) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent
hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with
respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.16; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has
failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order
to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting
Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.16; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the Swing Line Lender as a result of
any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;
seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a
result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a
payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a
time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Letter of Credit Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being
applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Letter of Credit Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders
pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Credit Facility without giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or
held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.15(a) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(iii) Certain Fees. 

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting
Lender. 
 (B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is a
Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.16. 

(C) With respect to any Unused Commitment Fee or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause
(A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of
Credit Obligations or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise
payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to each Issuing Lender’s or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. 

  
 73 

 (iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such
Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting
Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at
such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause any Non-Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit
Facility Usage to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a
Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 

(v) Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Line Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only
partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under Law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure and
(y) second, Cash Collateralize each Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.16. 

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Lenders agree in writing
that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements
with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause
the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Credit Facility (without giving effect to
Section 2.15(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that
Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party
hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 (c) New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as
any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any new Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) no
Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless the Borrower shall have Cash Collateralized such Issuing Lender’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance
with Section 2.16. 

  
 74 

 2.16 Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting
Lender, within one (1) Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize such Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure with
respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount. 

(a) Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby
grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Issuing Lender, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in
respect of Letter of Credit Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative
Agent and the Issuing Lenders as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative
Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). 

(b) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this
Section 2.16 or Section 2.15 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations (including, as to
Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. 

(c) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral provided to reduce an Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be
required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender) or
(ii) to the extent in excess of the Minimum Collateral Amount. Subject to Section 2.15, the Person providing Cash Collateral and an Issuing Lender may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting
Exposure or other obligations, provided that, to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the Prior Security Interest granted pursuant to the Loan
Documents. 
 III. INCREASED COSTS; TAXES; ILLEGALITY; INDEMNITY 

3.1 Increased Costs. 

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets
of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) or any Issuing Lender; 

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses
(b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or
capital attributable thereto; or 
 (iii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition,
cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 

  
 75 

 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of
making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, an Issuing Lender or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any
Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender, Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b)
Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company,
if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s
holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing
Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing
Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be,
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to
compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in this Section 3.1 and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or
such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this
Section 3.1 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Lender pursuant
to this Section 3.1 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving
rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the
nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 
 3.2
Taxes. 
 (a) Issuing Lenders. For purposes of this Section 3.2, the term “Lender” includes any
Issuing Lender and the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA. 

  
 76 

 (b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any
Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an
applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full
amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such
deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.2) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deduction or withholding been made. 
 (c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

(d) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten
(10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.2) payable or paid by such Recipient or
required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. Each of the Loan Parties shall, and does hereby agree to, jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for any
amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to Section 3.2(e) below. If any Loan Party is required to indemnify the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately
prior sentence for any amount which a Lender for any reason failed to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to Section 3.2(e)(ii) or (iii) below, such Lender shall indemnify such Loan Party for
such amount. 
 (e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten
(10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the applicable Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without
limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.7 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any
Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes
were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each
Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any
amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (e). 
 (f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any
payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.2, the Borrower shall deliver to 

  
 77 

 
the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence
of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (g) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Section 3.2(g)(ii)(A), (g)(ii)(B) and (g)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost
or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii) Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Borrower: 
 (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9
certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is
legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from
time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect
to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of
such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the
“business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 
 (2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code,
(x) a Tax Compliance Certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the 

  
 78 

 
Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described
in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or 
 (4)
to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other
certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such
Foreign Lender may provide a Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (C) any Foreign Lender
shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under
this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in
U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

 (D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such
Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and
such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has
complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this
Agreement. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any
respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.2 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.2), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to
such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.2 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to
this clause (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this clause (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a
less favorable net after-Tax position than the 

  
 79 

 
indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or
additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This clause (h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems
confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 3.3 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Change in
Law has made it unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate Option, or if any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of
such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on written notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR
Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such
notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if
such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued
and unpaid interest and all other amounts payable by Borrower under this Agreement (including amounts payable under Section 3.5) on the amount so prepaid or converted. 

3.4 LIBOR Rate Option Unavailable; Interest After Default. 

(a) Adjusted LIBOR Rate Unavailable. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Borrowing proposed to be subject to
the LIBOR Rate Option: 
 (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest
error) that either Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank LIBOR Rate market or that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period; or 

(ii) the Required Lenders determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Adjusted LIBOR
Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the lenders of making or maintaining the Loans for such Interest Period; 

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the
Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) any request to convert any Base Rate Loan to, or continue any LIBOR Rate Loan at, the LIBOR Rate Option shall be
ineffective, and (y) the Base Rate Option shall apply to any and all Borrowings upon the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 

(b) Default Rate. To the extent permitted by Law, immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default
under clause (a) or (l) of Section 9.1, or immediately after written demand by the Required Lenders to the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuation of any other Event of Default, then
the principal amount of all Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate and the rates applicable to Letter of Credit Fees shall be increased to the Default Rate. The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this
Section 3.4(b) reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and
all such interest shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand by the Administrative Agent. 

  
 80 

 3.5 Indemnity. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent)
from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the
Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 
 (b) any failure by the
Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or 

(c) any assignment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the
Borrower pursuant to Section 3.6; 
 including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or
reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with
the foregoing. 
 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.5, each Lender shall be deemed
to have funded each LIBOR Rate Loan made by it at the LIBOR Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Rate
Loan was in fact so funded. 
 3.6 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.1, or requires any Loan
Party to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.2, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to
designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment
(i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.2, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not
otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with
Section 3.6(a) above or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and
delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.8), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to
Section 3.1 or 3.2) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);
provided that: 
 (i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in
Section 11.7; 

  
 81 

 (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of
its Loans and participations in Letter of Credit drawings, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.5) from the
assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.1 or payments required to be
made pursuant to Section 3.2, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 
 (iv)
such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law; and 
 (v) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a
Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. 
 A Lender shall not be
required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

3.7 Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Article III shall survive the resignation of the Administrative
Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the Payment in Full of the Secured Obligations. 
 IV.

are being maintained by the Loan Parties with respect to such circumstances in accordance with GAAP).

Subsidiaries to do or make, such other acts, deliveries and things as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may deem necessary or advisable from time to time in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, preserve, perfect
and protect the Liens granted or purported to be granted under the Loan Documents and to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies thereunder with respect to the Collateral. 

(b) Additional Subsidiaries. In furtherance, and not in limitation, of Section 6.9(a), promptly upon (and in any event

and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final,
in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against
any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such
Lender, Issuing Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the 

  
 114 

 
Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or the Issuing Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding
such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for
further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.15 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Lenders, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right
of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Lender or their respective
Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
such setoff and application. 
 (d) Application of Proceeds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 9.2
(or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the Letter of Credit Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 9.2), any amounts received
on account of the Secured Obligations shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order: 
 First,
to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;
 
 Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting indemnities, expenses, and other amounts
(other than principal, interest and fees) payable to the Lenders and each Issuing Lender (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders and the respective Issuing Lenders and amounts payable under Article X),
ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;  

Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, Letter of
Credit Borrowings and other Obligations, and fees (including Letter of Credit Fees), ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;  

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans and Letter of Credit
Borrowings, ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; 

Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lenders, to Cash Collateralize that portion of Letter
of Credit Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit; 
 Sixth, to payment of all
other Obligations, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Sixth held by them; 

Seventh, to payment or Cash Collateralization (if agreed by the applicable Loan Parties and any a provider of any
Secured Bank Product or Secured Hedge, as applicable) of that portion of Other Liabilities to Lenders then outstanding, ratably among the Secured Parties providing the Secured Bank Products and Secured Hedges giving rise to such Other Liabilities to
Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Seventh held by them; 

  
 115 

 Eighth, to payment of the Second Lien Indebtedness to the extent permitted
pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement; and 
 Last, the balance, if any, after Payment in Full of all of the Secured
Obligations and the payment in full in cash of the Second Lien Indebtedness, to the Loan Parties or as otherwise required by Law. 
 Amounts used to Cash
Collateralize the Secured Obligations pursuant to clause Fifth or Seventh above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur or to pay such Other Liabilities to Lenders as they come due, as the case
may be. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired and/or after Payment in Full of the Other Liabilities to Lenders, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other
Secured Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above. 
 Amounts distributed with respect to any Secured Obligations attributable to Other Liabilities
to Lenders shall be equal to the lesser of (a) the applicable amount of such Other Liabilities to Lenders last reported to the Administrative Agent or (b) the actual amount of such Other Liabilities to Lenders as calculated by the
methodology reported to the Administrative Agent for determining the amount due. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount to be distributed with respect to any such Other Liabilities to Lenders, but may rely upon
written notice of the amount (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) from the applicable Lender or its Affiliate providing such Secured Bank Products or Secured Hedge. In the absence of such notice, the Administrative Agent may assume the
amount to be distributed is the amount of such obligations last reported to it. 
 If and to the extent the Administrative Agent has received notice or
other evidence that any amount claimed as a Secured Obligation is or could reasonably be determined to be an Excluded Swap Obligation with respect to any Loan Party, amounts received from such Loan Party or its assets shall not be applied to such
Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to such Loan Party, and adjustments shall be made with respect to amounts received from other Loan Parties and their assets as the Administrative Agent may determine, in consultation with or at the direction
of, the Lenders to be equitable (which may include, without limitation, the purchase and sale of participation interests) so that, to the maximum extent practical, the benefit of all amounts received from the Loan Parties and their assets are shared
in accordance with the allocation of recoveries set forth above that would apply if the applicable Swap Obligations were not Excluded Swap Obligations. Each Loan Party acknowledges and consents to the foregoing. 

X. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

10.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Lender (on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates)
hereby irrevocably appoints CoBank to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated
to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the
Affiliates of the Lenders who are Secured Parties and the Issuing Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the
term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not 

  
 116 

 
intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is
intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. 
 10.2 Rights as a Lender. The
Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term
“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person
and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate
thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 
 10.3
No Fiduciary Duty. 
 (a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth
herein and in the other Loan Documents and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing; 
 (ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to
liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may affect a forfeiture, modification or
termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and 
 (iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth
herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as
the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
 (b) None of the Lenders shall have any duties or obligations except
those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of the Lenders shall (i) be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers. 

10.4 Exculpation. 

(a) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.1 and 9.2) or
(ii) in the absence of its own 

  
 117 

 
gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of
any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be
delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 10.5 Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been
made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its
terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants
and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

10.6 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers
hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or
through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article X shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a
court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub agents. 

10.7 Filing Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceedings under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial
proceeding relating to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent
shall have made any demand therefor) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the owing and unpaid principal and interest in respect to the Secured Obligations and to
file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing
Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.7, 2.10(b), 3.5 and 11.3) allowed in
such proceeding; 

  
 118 

 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims
and to distribute the same; and 
 (c) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any
such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the
Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.7, 2.10(b), 3.5 and 11.3. 
 10.8 Resignation of the Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation
with the Borrower, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank or other financial institution with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor
shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier date as the Required Lenders may
approve), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. If the Administrative Agent
shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no such Person has accepted such appointment, then the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders under any of
the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring
Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders
appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 10.8. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of
the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all
of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those
payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article X and
Section 11.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring
Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 

  
 119 

 Any resignation by CoBank as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also
automatically constitute its resignation as an Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender, with replacement of the Administrative Agent as an Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender conducted in accordance with Section 10.9 below. 

10.9 Resignation of Swing Line Lender or an Issuing Lender. The Swing Line Lender or an Issuing Lender may at any time give
notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with approval from the Borrower (so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing) to appoint a successor Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender, which shall be a bank or other financial institution with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States,
and such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Swing Line Lender or
Issuing Lender (as applicable) gives notice of its resignation, then the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obliged to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable) meeting the
qualifications set forth above. If the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice
and the retiring Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable) shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the retiring Swing Line
Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable) on behalf of the Lenders or the Swing Line Lender or such Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable) shall continue to hold such
collateral security until such time as a successor Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable) is appointed). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as a Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable) hereunder, such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable), and the retiring Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable)
shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Swing Line Lender or
Issuing Lender (as applicable) shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Swing Line Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s (as applicable) resignation
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as a Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, the provisions of Section 11.3 (and Article X if the Administrative Agent is resigning as an Issuing Lender and the Swing Line
Lender) shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable), its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while
the retiring Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (as applicable) was acting as the Swing Line Lender or an Issuing Lender (as applicable). 

In addition to the foregoing requirements, upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as an Issuing Lender hereunder, the successor
Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit issued by the retiring Issuing Lender, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender
to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
 10.10 Non-Reliance on
the Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and

  
 120 

 
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate,
continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

10.11 Enforcement. By its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, each Secured Party agrees
that (a) the Loan Documents may be enforced only by the Administrative Agent, acting upon the instructions or with the consent of Required Lenders as provided in this Agreement, (b) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to
enforce or seek to enforce this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or to realize upon any Collateral or other security given to secure the payment and performance of the Obligations and (c) no Secured Party has any right to notice of any
action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender or an Issuing
Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. 
 10.12 No Other Duties, etc. Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the agents listed on the cover page or signature pages hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as
applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Lender hereunder. 
 10.13 Authorization to Release Collateral and
Loan Parties. 
 (a) The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, 

(i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (x) upon Payment in Full
of all Secured Obligations, (y) that is Disposed of or to be Disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted under the Loan Documents, or (z) subject to Section 11.1, if approved, authorized
or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; 
 (ii) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative
Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.1(d)(i); and 
 (iii)
to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents if such Person ceases to be a Guarantor as a result of a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents. 

In connection with a termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to the
applicable Loan Party, at the Borrower’s expense, all documents that the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in
writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to this Section 10.13.

 (b) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty
regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the
Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 

  
 121 

 10.14 Compliance with Flood Laws. CoBank has adopted internal policies and
procedures that address requirements placed on federally regulated lenders under the Flood Laws. CoBank, as Administrative Agent will post on the applicable electronic platform (or otherwise distribute to each lender in the syndicate) documents that
it receives in connection with the Flood Laws. However, each Lender and Participant in the Credit facilities is responsible for assuring its own compliance with the flood insurance requirements. 

10.15 No Reliance on the Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that
neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other
obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other
Anti-Terrorism Law, Anti-Corruption Law, or Sanctions, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions
hereunder or contemplated hereby: (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any recordkeeping, (c) comparisons with government lists, (d) customer notices or (e) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or
such other Laws. 
 10.16 Affiliates as Secured Parties. To the extent any Affiliate of a Lender is a party to a Secured Hedge
or a Secured Bank Product and thereby becomes a beneficiary of the Liens pursuant to any Collateral Document for so long as such Lender remains a Lender, such Affiliate of a Lender shall be a Secured Party and shall be deemed to appoint the
Administrative Agent its nominee and agent to act for and on behalf of such Affiliate in connection with such Collateral Document and to be bound by the terms of this Article X and the other provisions of this Agreement. 

XI. MISCELLANEOUS 

11.1 Modifications, Amendments or Waivers. With the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, acting on
behalf of all the Lenders, and the Borrower, on behalf of the Loan Parties, may from time to time enter into written agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the rights of the Lenders or the Loan
Parties hereunder or thereunder, or may grant written waivers or consents hereunder or thereunder. Any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent shall be effective to bind all the Lenders and the Loan Parties; provided,
that no such agreement, waiver or consent may be made that will: 
 (a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any
obligation to make Loans terminated pursuant to Section 9.2) without the written consent of such Lender whose Commitment is being extended or increased (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in
Section 4.2 or of any Default, mandatory prepayment or a mandatory reduction in Commitments is not considered an extension or increase in Commitments of any Lender); 

(b) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment (including mandatory prepayment of Overadvances but
excluding other mandatory prepayments of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) or any scheduled or mandatory reduction of the Commitments hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent
of each Lender entitled to receive such payment or whose Commitments are to be reduced (it being understood that the waiver of any condition set forth in the definition of “Extension Conditions” or of any mandatory prepayment of
Loans (or any definition relating thereto), other than a mandatory prepayment of Overadvances, shall not constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest); 

  
 122 

 (c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or Letter of
Credit Borrowing or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders
shall be necessary (i) to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest or Letter of Credit Fees at the Default Rate or (ii) to amend any financial covenant hereunder (or any
defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or to reduce any fee payable hereunder; 

(d) change Section 2.14 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent
of each Lender directly affected thereby; 
 (e) change any provision of this Section 11.1 or the definition of “Required
Lenders” without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 
 (f) except in connection with a transaction permitted
under Section 7.7 or 7.8, release all or substantially all of the Collateral without the written consent of each Lender whose Obligations are secured by such Collateral; or 

(g) release the Borrower without the consent of each Lender, or, except in connection with a transaction permitted under
Section 7.7 or 7.8, all or substantially all of the value of the Guaranty provided pursuant to Article XII of this Agreement without the written consent of each Lender whose Secured Obligations are guaranteed thereby,
except to the extent such release is permitted pursuant to Section 10.13 (in which case such release may be made by the Administrative Agent acting alone); 

provided that (i) no agreement, waiver or consent that would modify the interests, rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent, the Swing
Line Lender or an Issuing Lender may be made without the written consent of such Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender or an Issuing Lender, as applicable, (ii) only the consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for any amendment
to the Fee Letter, (iii) the Schedules to this Agreement and the Annexes to the Security Agreement may be modified as provided in and subject to the terms described in Section 6.9 and 6.11, and (iv) the
Section 6.15 may be amended, modified, or terminate or any provision thereof waived in accordance with the terms set forth therein; and provided, further that, if in connection with any proposed waiver, amendment or
modification referred to in Sections 11.1(a) through 11.1(g) above, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (each a
“Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower shall have the right to replace any such Non-Consenting Lender with one or more replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 3.6. 

No Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or
consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender may not
be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects such Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely
relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 
 Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the
contrary, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent, without the consent of any Lender, may enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection,
protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to 

  
 123 

 
become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property
or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if
following the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document if
the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof. It is understood that posting such amendment electronically on SyndTrak or another relevant website with notice of
such posting by the Administrative Agent to the Required Lenders shall be deemed adequate receipt of notice of such amendment. 

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, each Lender is entitled
to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth
herein. 
 For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Section 11.1, this
Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent to give effect to the transactions described in Section 2.1(e). 

11.2 No Implied Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No course of dealing and no delay or failure of the Administrative Agent, any
Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise thereof preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any
other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such
enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising
on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) an Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and
remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as an Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with
Section 9.2 (subject to the terms of Section 2.14), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party in any
Insolvency Proceedings.

disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, which in the case of professional services will include only the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of (1) one deal counsel, one regulatory counsel and one local real estate counsel
for each state in which a Mortgage is entered into by any Loan Party (so long as none of the existing counsel is licensed in such state and practicing as real estate counsel in such state) to the Administrative Agent, (2) one title insurance
company selected by the Administrative Agent and (3) one or more vendors selected by the Administrative Agent to perform any Phase I Environmental Site Assessments or similar environmental due diligence assessment, in each case, only to the

contemplated hereby shall be consummated), 
 (ii) all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its
Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent) in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the
provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), 
 (iii) all reasonable
out of pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Lenders in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, and 

(iv) all out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender (including the fees, charges and

(A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or 

(B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any
workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 
 (b) Indemnification by the Borrower. The
Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and each Issuing Lender, and each Related Party 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, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee
by any Person (including the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the expense of investigation) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of: 

(i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the
performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, 

  
 125 

 (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom
(including any refusal by an Issuing Lender 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 or pursuant to
Section 2.9(j)), 
 (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 its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its 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, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, 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 losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses
(x) 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 or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other
Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 11.3(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages and other similar amounts arising from any non-Tax claim. In the
event suit or action is instituted to enforce any of the terms of any Mortgage, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees at trial, on any appeal, on any petition for review, in an arbitration proceeding,
and in any bankruptcy proceeding in addition to all other sums provided by Law. 
 (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that
the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under clause (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), an Issuing Lender, the Swing Line
Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s
pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim
asserted by such Lender); provided, that with respect to such unpaid amounts owed to an Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender solely in its capacity as such, only the Revolving Lenders shall be required to pay such unpaid amounts, such payment
to be made severally among them based on such Revolving Lenders’ Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought); and provided, further, that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), an Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such, or against
any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), an Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender in connection with such capacity. 

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, none of the Loan Parties shall assert, and
each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed 

  
 126 

 
to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Section 11.3 shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information
or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) days after demand therefor. 

(f) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.3 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative
Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

11.4 Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication. 

(a) Notices Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except
as provided in clause (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail (i) if to a Lender,
at its address set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire or (ii) if to any other Person, to it at its address set forth on Part 3 of Schedule 1.1(B). Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or
registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received. Notices delivered through electronic communications (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) to the extent provided in clause (b) below, shall be effective as
provided in said clause (b). 
 (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing
Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to
notices to any Lender or any Issuing Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic
communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of
such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 
 Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes,
(i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as
available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e-mail address as
described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such
notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient. 

  
 127 

 (c) Change of Address, etc. Any party hereto may change its address, facsimile number or
e-mail address, if applicable, for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. 
 (d) Platform.

 (i) Each Loan Party agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Communications (as defined below)
available to the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, SyndTrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). 

(ii) The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the
adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties
(collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower or the other Loan Parties, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special,
incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the Platform.
“Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated
therein which is distributed to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform. 

11.5 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be
held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability
thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction. 
 11.6 Duration; Survival. All
representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained herein or made in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the completion of the transactions hereunder and Payment in Full of the Secured
Obligations. All covenants and agreements of the Borrower contained herein relating to the payment of principal, interest, premiums, additional compensation or expenses and indemnification, including those set forth in the Notes,
Article II, Article III, Section 11.3 or any other provision of any Loan Document, the agreement of the Lenders set forth in Section 11.3(c), and the agreements of the Loan Parties set forth in
Section 11.10 or any other provision of any Loan Documents shall survive Payment in Full of the Secured Obligations and shall protect the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and any other Indemnitees against events arising after such
termination as well as before. All other covenants and agreements of the Loan Parties shall continue in full force and effect from and after the date hereof and until Payment in Full of the Secured Obligations. 

11.7 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. 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 neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Administrative 

  
 128 

 
Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of this Section,
(ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.7, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of this Section 11.7 (and any other
attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in this Section 11.7 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders) any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time
assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, all participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and the Loans at the time owing to it);
provided that (in each case and with respect to any Credit Facility) any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(i) Minimum Amounts. 

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing
to it (in each case with respect to any Credit Facility) or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in clause (B) below in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender,
an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 
 (B) in any case not described in clause
(i)(A) of this clause (b), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the 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 or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment
and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, or $1,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Term Loan Facility or any Tranche of
the Incremental Term Loan Facility, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among
separate Credit Facilities on a non-pro rata basis. 
 (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment
except to the extent required by clause (b)(i)(B) of this Section 11.7 and in addition: 
 (A) the consent of the
Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having
received notice thereof and provided, further, that the Borrower’s consent shall not be required during the primary syndication of the Credit Facilities; 

  
 129 

 (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (i) the Revolving Credit Facility or any unfunded Commitments with respect to the Term Loan Facility or any Tranche of the Incremental Term Loan Facility if such assignment is to a Person
that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of such Credit Facility or Tranche of such Credit Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, or (ii) any Term Loans or Incremental Term Loan to a
Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and 
 (C) the consent of the Issuing Lenders and Swing Line
Lender shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility. 
 (iv) Assignment and Assumption. 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; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to
waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (i) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s
Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (ii) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, any Second Lien Administrative Agent or any Second Lien Lender or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries (other than pursuant to the exercise of
the Second Lien Lenders’ purchase rights under Section 5.7 of the Intercreditor Agreement) or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (v). 

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person. 

(vii) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no
such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon
distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent,
the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then
owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all
Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become
effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, from and after the effective date specified
in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement 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 

  
 130 

 
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 3.1, 3.2, 3.5 and
11.3(b) with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will
constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 11.7(d) below. 

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one
of its offices in Greenwood Village, Colorado 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 amounts (and stated interest)
of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
shall 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. Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender shall be available for access by
the Borrower during normal business hours and from time to time upon at least one Business Day’s prior notice. No Lender shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than
information with respect to such Lender unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) Participations. Any Lender may at
any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Lenders and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity
under Section 11.3(c) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s). 
 Any agreement or instrument
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 or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in Sections 11.1(a) through (g) that affects such Participant.
The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.2 (it being understood that
the documentation required under Section 3.2 shall be delivered to the participating Lender)), 3.5 and 11.3 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause
(b) of this Section 11.7; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 3.6 as if it were an assignee under clause (b) of this Section 11.7;
and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.1 or 3.2, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such
entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable 

  
 131 

 
participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of
Section 3.6 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.2(c) as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees
to be subject to Section 2.14 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each
Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any
obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under
any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury
Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this
Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. CoBank reserves the right to
assign or sell participations in all or part of its Commitments or outstanding Loans hereunder on a non-patronage basis. 
 Notwithstanding
the preceding paragraph, any Participant that is a Farm Credit Lender that (i) has purchased a participation from a Lender that is a Farm Credit Lender in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, (ii) has been designated as a voting Participant (a
“Voting Participant”) in a notice (a “Voting Participant Notice”) sent by the relevant Lender to the Administrative Agent and (iii) receives, prior to becoming a Voting Participant, the consent of the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent (such Borrower and Administrative Agent consent to be required only to the extent and under the circumstances it would be required if such Voting Participant were to become a Lender pursuant to an assignment in
accordance with Section 11.7(b)), shall be entitled to vote as if such Voting Participant were a Lender on all matters subject to a vote by Lenders, and the voting rights of the selling Lender shall be correspondingly reduced, on a
dollar-for-dollar basis. Each Voting Participant Notice shall include, with respect to each Voting Participant, the information that would be included by a prospective Lender in an Assignment and Assumption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Farm
Credit Lender designated as a Voting Participant in Schedule 11.7 shall be a Voting Participant without delivery of a Voting Participation Notice and without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The selling Lender and the
purchasing Voting Participant shall notify the Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days of any termination, reduction or increase of the amount of, such participation. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely
on information contained in Voting Participant Notices and all other notices delivered pursuant hereto. The voting rights of each Voting Participant are solely for the benefit of such Voting Participant and shall not inure to any assignee or
participant of such Voting Participant. 
 (e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in
all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided
that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(f) Issuing Lender. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 11.7, an Issuing Lender may assign to an Eligible
Assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the undrawn portion of its Letter of Credit Commitment at any time; provided that (i) each such assignment 

  
 132 

 
shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an
Assignment and Assumption, and such Eligible Assignee shall otherwise meet the requirements of an Issuing Lender set forth in the definition thereof. 

11.8 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders agree to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties
(including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party
hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder;
(f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder;
(g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Credit Facilities or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and
monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Credit Facilities; (h) with the consent of the Borrower; or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this
Section 11.8, or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. 

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person
required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such
Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 The Administrative Agent or any Lender may from time to time
publish advertising material (including press releases) relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using any Loan Party’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark with the prior written consent of the Borrower,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 No Loan Party shall, and no Loan Party shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue any
press release or other public disclosure (other than any document filed with any Governmental Authority relating to a public offering of securities of any Loan Party) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to CoBank or of any of its Affiliates,
the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated therein to which Administrative Agent is party without the prior consent of CoBank except to the extent required to do so under applicable Law and then, only after consulting with CoBank. 

  
 133 

 The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents and all reports, notices,
communications and other information or materials provided or delivered by, or on behalf of, the Loan Parties hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) may be disseminated by, or on behalf of, the Administrative Agent, and
made available, to the Lenders by posting such Borrower Materials on an E-System. The Loan Parties authorize the Administrative Agent to download copies of their logos from its website and post copies thereof on an E-System. 

The Loan Parties hereby agree that they shall (and shall cause such parent company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, to) (i) identify in
writing, and (ii) clearly and conspicuously mark such Borrower Materials that contain only information that is publicly available or that is not material for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws as “PUBLIC”. The Loan
Parties agree that by identifying such Borrower Materials as “PUBLIC” or publicly filing such Borrower Materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission, then Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to treat such
Borrower Materials as not containing any material nonpublic information for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws. 
 11.9
Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 
 (a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to
fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter
hereof. Except as provided in Article IV, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together,
bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. 
 (b) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,”
“signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National
Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

OF ANY JURISDICTION.

FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

11.11 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the USA PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and
not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Loan Parties that 

  
 135 

 
pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of
Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent
or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Terrorism Laws, and Sanctions, including
the USA PATRIOT Act. 
 11.12 Payments Set Aside. To the extent any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to the
Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders or Secured Parties or the Administrative Agent receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral which payments or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Insolvency Proceeding, other applicable Law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds repaid, the
Secured Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent. 

11.13 Secured Bank Products and Secured Hedge Agreements. No Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent) that obtains
the benefit of the Guaranty set forth in Article XII or of any security interest in any of the Collateral shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document
(including the release, impairment or modification of any Guarantors’ Obligations or security therefor) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. No Hedge Bank or
provider of any Secured Bank Product shall have any voting rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document in its capacity as the provider of such Secured Hedge or Secured Bank Product. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, the Administrative Agent shall only be required to verify the payment of, or that other reasonably satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, the Secured Obligations arising with respect to Secured Bank Products and Secured
Hedges to the extent the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Secured Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as it may request, from the applicable Lender (or its Affiliate) or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.
Each Secured Party not a party to this Agreement that obtains the benefit of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, and acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent is and shall be entitled to all the rights, benefits and immunities conferred under this Agreement with respect to each such Secured Party. 

11.14 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or
agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount
that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the
Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude
voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 

11.15 FCC and PUC Compliance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, no party
hereto or thereto shall take any action under this 

  
 136 

 
Agreement or the other Loan Documents that would constitute or result in an assignment of any License, or a Change of Control of any Loan Party or Subsidiary directly or indirectly holding a
License, to the extent that such assignment or Change of Control would require the prior approval by the FCC under the Communications Act and/or any applicable PUC under the PUC Laws without first obtaining such required approval. 

Upon any action to commence the exercise of remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, each Loan Party hereby undertakes and agrees
on behalf of itself, the other Loan Parties, and the Subsidiaries of any Loan Party to cooperate and join with the Administrative Agent, and cause the other Loan Parties and the Subsidiaries of any Loan Party, to cooperate and join with the
Administrative Agent, in any application to any Governmental Authority with respect thereto and to provide such assistance in connection therewith as the Administrative Agent may request, including the preparation of, consenting to or joining in of
filings and appearances of officers and employees of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of any Loan Party before such Governmental Authority, in each case in support of any such application made by the Administrative Agent; provided, however, nothing
herein shall be construed to require any of the Loan Parties nor any of the Subsidiaries of any Loan Party to, directly or indirectly, violate any terms or conditions of any License. The obligation of the Loan Parties to make all payments required
to be made under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be absolute and unconditional and independent of any action by the PUC or the FCC with respect to rates and/or disallowance of debt. 

11.16 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes
to provide such funds or other support to each other Loan Party as may be needed by such Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party with respect to Swap
Obligations permitted under this Agreement that would, in the absence of the agreement in this Section 11.16, otherwise constitute Excluded Swap Obligations (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be
hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP Guarantors’ obligations and undertakings under this Section voidable under applicable Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The
obligations, undertakings and guaranty of the Qualified ECP Guarantors under this Section 11.16 shall remain in full force and effect until Payment in Full of the Obligations. The Borrower and the Qualified ECP Guarantors intend this
Section 11.16 to constitute, and this Section 11.16 shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Loan Party for all
purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
 11.17 Grant of Irrevocable License to Enter and Inspect. Each Loan Party hereby
grants to the Administrative Agent, its agents, attorneys, employees, consultants, contractors, successors and assigns, an irrevocable license and authorization to enter upon and inspect any real property subject to a Mortgage executed and delivered
by such Loan Party or its Subsidiary and facilities thereon, and perform only such tests, including without limitation, subsurface testing, soils and groundwater testing, and other tests which may physically invade such real property or facilities,
as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, determines are necessary to protect its interest in the Collateral; provided that prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, its agents, attorneys, employees,
consultants, contractors, successors and assigns shall (i) provide the Borrower with reasonable notice prior to any entry, (ii) at the Borrower’s option, be escorted by a representative of the Borrower and (iii) perform only such
tests as the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable discretion, determines are necessary to protect its interest in the Collateral. Under no circumstances shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to perform such inspections or tests. 

  
 137 

 11.18 Independent Action. Each Loan Party hereby agrees that the representations
and warranties of Section 5.18 and the obligations set forth in Sections 6.6(b) and 6.8(c) shall constitute independent covenants of each of the Loan Parties that are not secured by the Mortgages regarding real property
located in Alaska or Oregon despite any reference in such Mortgage that the Secured Obligations are secured by such Mortgage. Each Loan Party acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may undertake remedies allowed under the Loan Documents and
applicable Law to enforce Sections 5.18, 6.6(b) or 6.8(c), other than those granted exclusively by the Mortgages regarding real property located in Alaska or Oregon, and any action to enforce the rights of the Secured Parties
under these Sections shall be deemed an independent action or proceeding not secured by any Mortgage regarding real property located in Alaska or Oregon. 

XII. GUARANTY 

12.1 Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally, absolutely, continually and irrevocably guarantees
to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities. For all purposes of this Article XII, notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Guarantor
individually with respect to its Guarantors’ Obligations shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the Maximum Guarantor Liability. Each Guarantor agrees that it is jointly and severally, directly and primarily liable (subject to the
limitation in the immediately preceding sentence) for the Guaranteed Liabilities. The Guarantors’ Obligations are secured by various Collateral. 

12.2 Payment. If the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall default in payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed
Liabilities, whether principal, interest, premium, indemnification obligations, fees (including, but not limited to, attorney’s fees and expenses), expenses or otherwise, when and as the same shall become due, and after expiration of any
applicable grace period, whether according to the terms of this Agreement, by acceleration, or otherwise, or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, then any or all of the Guarantors will, upon demand thereof by the
Administrative Agent, (i) fully pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, an amount equal to all the Guaranteed Liabilities then due and owing or declared or deemed to be due and owing, including for this purpose,
in the event of any Event of Default under Section 9.1(l) (and irrespective of the applicability of any restriction on acceleration or other action as against any other Loan Party in any Insolvency Proceeding), the entire outstanding or
accrued amount of all Secured Obligations or (ii) perform such Guaranteed Liabilities, as applicable. For purposes of this Section 12.2, the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that “Guaranteed Liabilities” shall be deemed to
include any amount (whether principal, interest, premium, fees, expenses, indemnification obligations and/or any other payment obligation of any kind or nature) which would have been accelerated in accordance with Section 9.2 but for the
fact that such acceleration could be unenforceable or not allowable in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise under any applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default,
then notwithstanding any Collateral or other direct or indirect security or credit support for the Guaranteed Liabilities, at the Administrative Agent’s election and without notice thereof or demand therefor, each of the Guaranteed Liabilities
and the Guarantors’ Obligations shall immediately be and become due and payable. 
 12.3 Absolute Rights and Obligations.
This is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. The Guarantors’ Obligations under this Article XII shall be joint and several, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the extent not
otherwise expressly prohibited by applicable law, any defense to its obligations under this Article XII and all other Loan Documents to which it is a party by reason of: 

(a) any lack of legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, or any of the Notes, or any other Loan Document, or of any other
agreement or instrument creating, providing security for, or otherwise relating to any of the Guarantors’ Obligations, any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, or any other guaranty of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities (the Loan Documents, the
documentation with respect to any Other Liabilities to Lenders and all such other agreements and instruments being collectively referred to as the “Related Agreements”); 

  
 138 

 (b) any action taken under any of the Related Agreements, any exercise of any right or power
therein conferred, any failure or omission to enforce any right conferred thereby, or any waiver of any covenant or condition therein provided; 

(c) any acceleration of the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, of the Guarantors’ Obligations of any other Guarantor, or of
any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements; 
 (d) any release, exchange, non-perfection, lapse
in perfection, disposal, deterioration in value, or impairment of any security for any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, for any of the Guarantors’ Obligations of any Guarantor, or for any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any
of the Related Agreements; 
 (e) any change in the corporate or limited liability company existence, structure or ownership, including,
without limitation, dissolution, of the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other Loan Party or any other party to a Related Agreement, or the combination or consolidation of the Borrower, any Guarantor, any other Loan Party or any other party to a Related
Agreement into or with another entity or any transfer or disposition of any assets of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Loan Party or any other party to a Related Agreement; 

(f) any extension (including without limitation extensions of time for payment or pursuant to the satisfaction of the Extension Conditions),
renewal, amendment, restructuring or restatement of, any acceptance of late or partial payments under, or any change in the amount of any borrowings or any credit facilities available under, this Agreement, any of the Notes or any other Loan
Document or any other Related Agreement, in whole or in part; 
 (g) the existence, addition, modification, termination, reduction or
impairment of value, or release of any other guaranty (or security therefor) of the Guaranteed Liabilities (including without limitation the Guarantors’ Obligations of any other Guarantor and obligations arising under any other Guaranty or any
other Loan Document now or hereafter in effect); 
 (h) any waiver of, forbearance or indulgence under, or other consent to any change in or
departure from any term or provision contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, including without limitation any term pertaining to the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, any of the
Guarantors’ Obligations of any other Guarantor, or any of the obligations or liabilities of any party to any other Related Agreement; 

(i) any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or with respect to the payment or performance of any of the
Guaranteed Liabilities, any of the Guarantors’ Obligations of any Guarantor, or any of the obligations or liabilities of any party to any other Related Agreement; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated
by the Loan Documents, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with
any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against the 

  
 139 

 
Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person under or in connection with any Loan Document, any Related Agreement or any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or any Guarantors’ Obligation;
any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or any Guarantors’ Obligation, whether or not with any reservation of rights against any Guarantor; or any application of collections (including but not limited to
collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Liabilities) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of the Guaranty provided for in this Article XII, in preference to
Guaranteed Liabilities or Guarantors’ Obligations entitled to the benefits of the Guaranty provided for in this Article XII, or if any collections are applied to the payment of Guaranteed Liabilities, any application to particular
Guaranteed Liabilities; 
 (j) any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, waiver, supplement, termination, subordination, compromise,
release, surrender, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights, or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach,
default, delay, or wrongful action by the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties, or any of them, or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with,
or, any other action or inaction by the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties, or any of them, or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Guaranteed Liabilities. As used in this Article XII,
“direct or indirect security” for the Guaranteed Liabilities, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right
or arrangement of any nature providing direct or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, made by or on behalf of any Person; 

(k) any merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up, charter revocation, or forfeiture, or other change in, restructuring or
termination of the corporate structure or existence of, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person; any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person;
or any action taken or election made by the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties, or any of them (including but not limited to any election under Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code), the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any
other Person in connection with any such proceeding; 
 (l) any defense, set-off, or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or
be asserted by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other person with respect to any Loan Document, any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, any Guarantors’ Obligation, or with respect to any Related Agreement; or any discharge by operation of
law or release of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Loan Document or any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or Guarantors’ Obligations; 

(m) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Guarantor or any other Loan Party) which might in any
manner or to any extent vary the risks of such Loan Party, or might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or discharge of, a surety or a guarantor, including without limitation any right to require or claim that resort be
had to the Borrower or any other Loan Party or to any Collateral or other security in respect of the Guaranteed Liabilities or Guarantors’ Obligations. 

It is the express purpose and intent of the parties hereto that this Guaranty, the Guaranteed Liabilities and the Guarantors’ Obligations
hereunder and under each Guarantor Joinder with respect hereto shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and shall not be discharged except by payment and performance as herein provided. 

  
 140 

 12.4 Maximum Liability. 

(a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Loan Documents, to the extent any Guarantors’
Obligations shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including because of any applicable Law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of each such Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the
maximum amount that is permissible under applicable Law (whether federal or state and including any Debtor Relief Law). Any analysis of the provisions hereof for purposes of laws relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers shall take into
account the contribution agreement established in Section 12.5. 
 (i) Each Guarantor’s maximum obligations hereunder (the
“Maximum Guarantor Liability”) in any case or proceeding referred to below (but only in such a case or proceeding) shall not be in excess of: 

(A) in a case or proceeding commenced by or against such Guarantor under the Bankruptcy Code on or within one year from the date on which any
of the Guaranteed Liabilities are incurred, the maximum amount that would not otherwise cause the Guarantors’ Obligations of such Guarantor (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to Administrative Agent, Lenders and any other Person
holding any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or the Guarantors’ Obligations) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor under (A) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or (B) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent
conveyance act or statute applied in such case or proceeding by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code; or 
 (B) in a case or
proceeding commenced by or against such Guarantor under the Bankruptcy Code subsequent to one year from the date on which any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or Guarantors’ Obligations of such Guarantor are incurred, the maximum amount that would
not otherwise cause the Guarantors’ Obligations of such Guarantor (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to Administrative Agent, Lenders and any other Person holding any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or the Guarantors’ Obligations)
to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor under any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in any such case or proceeding by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code; or 

(C) in a case or proceeding commenced by or against such Guarantor under any Debtor Relief Law other than the Bankruptcy Code, the maximum
amount that would not otherwise cause the Guarantors’ Obligations of such Guarantor (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to Administrative Agent, Lenders and any other Person holding any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or the
Guarantors’ Obligations) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor under such Debtor Relief Law, including any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in any such case or proceeding. (The
substantive state or federal laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the Guarantors’ Obligations of such Guarantor (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to Administrative Agent, Lenders and any other Person holding
any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or the Guarantors’ Obligations) shall be determined in any such case or proceeding shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Avoidance Provisions”). 

(ii) To the extent set forth above, but only to the extent that the Guarantors’ Obligations of such Guarantor or the transfers made by
such Guarantor under the Collateral Documents to which it is a party, would otherwise be subject to avoidance under any Avoidance Provisions if such Guarantor is not deemed to have received valuable consideration, fair value, fair consideration or
reasonably equivalent value for such transfers or obligations, or if such transfers or the Guarantors’ Obligations of such Guarantor would render such Guarantor insolvent, or leave such Guarantor with an unreasonably small capital or
unreasonably small assets to conduct its business, or cause such Guarantor 

  
 141 

 
to have incurred debts (or to have intended to have incurred debts) beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature, in each case as of the time any of such Guarantors’ Obligations are
deemed to have been incurred and transfers made under such Avoidance Provisions, then such Guarantors’ Obligations shall be reduced to that amount which, after giving effect thereto, would not cause the Guarantors’ Obligations of such
Guarantor (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to Administrative Agent, Lenders and any other Person holding any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or the Guarantors’ Obligations), as so reduced, to be subject to avoidance under such
Avoidance Provisions. This paragraph is intended solely to preserve the rights hereunder of Administrative Agent, Lenders and any other Person holding any of the Guaranteed Liabilities to the maximum extent that would not cause such Guarantors’
Obligations to be subject to avoidance under any Avoidance Provisions, and neither such Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right, defense, offset, or claim under this paragraph as against Administrative Agent, Lenders or any other Person
holding any of the Guaranteed Liabilities or the Guarantors’ Obligations that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions. 

(b) Each Guarantor agrees that the Guarantors’ Obligations of such Guarantor may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum
Guarantor Liability, without impairing the guaranty or any provision contained herein or affecting the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent hereunder. 

12.5 Contribution Agreement. To the extent that any Guarantor shall be required hereunder to pay any portion of any Guaranteed
Liability or Guarantors’ Obligation exceeding the greater of (i) the amount of the value actually received by such Guarantor and its Subsidiaries from the Loans and other Guaranteed Liabilities and Guarantors’ Obligations and
(ii) the amount such Guarantor would otherwise have paid if such Guarantor had paid the aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Liabilities and Guarantors’ Obligations (excluding the amount thereof repaid by Borrower) in the same proportion as
such Guarantor’s net worth on the date enforcement is sought hereunder bears to the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on such date, then such Guarantor shall be reimbursed by such other Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro
rata, based on the respective net worth of such other Guarantors on such date of enforcement. The contribution agreement in this paragraph is intended only to define the relative rights of the Guarantors and nothing set forth in this paragraph is
intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (up to the Maximum Guarantor Liability). 

12.6 Currency and Funds of Payment. All Guarantors’ Obligations for payment will be paid in lawful currency of the United
States of America and in immediately available funds, regardless of any law, regulation or decree now or hereafter in effect that might in any manner affect the Guaranteed Liabilities, or the rights of any Secured Party with respect thereto as
against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or cause or permit to be invoked any alteration in the time, amount or manner of payment by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any or all of the Guaranteed Liabilities. 

12.7 Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally subordinates all present and future debts, liabilities or obligations
now or hereafter owing to such Guarantor (a) of the Borrower, to the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities, (b) of every other Guarantor (an “obligated guarantor”), to the payment and performance in full
of the Guarantors’ Obligations of such obligated guarantor, and (c) of each other Person now or hereafter constituting a Loan Party, to the payment and performance in full of the obligations of such Loan Party owing to any Secured Party
and arising under the Loan Documents or with respect to the Other Liabilities to Lenders. All amounts due under such subordinated debts, liabilities, or obligations shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, be
collected and, upon request by the Administrative Agent, paid over forthwith to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on account of the Guaranteed Liabilities, the Guarantors’ Obligations, or such other obligations, as
applicable, and, after such request and pending such payment, shall be held by such Guarantor as agent and bailee of the Secured Parties separate and apart from all other funds, property and accounts of such Guarantor. 

  
 142 

 12.8 Enforcement. Each Guarantor from time to time shall pay to the Administrative
Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on demand, at the Administrative Agent’s Principal Office or such other address as the Administrative Agent shall give notice of to such Guarantor, the Guarantors’ Obligations as they become or
are declared due, and in the event such payment is not made forthwith, the Administrative Agent may proceed to suit against any one or more or all of the Guarantors. At the Administrative Agent’s election, one or more and successive or
concurrent suits may be brought hereon by the Administrative Agent against any one or more or all of the Guarantors, whether or not suit has been commenced against the Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other Person and whether or not the Secured
Parties have taken or failed to take any other action to collect all or any portion of the Guaranteed Liabilities or have taken or failed to take any actions against any Collateral securing payment or performance of all or any portion of the
Guaranteed Liabilities, and irrespective of any event, occurrence, or condition described in Section 12.3. 
 12.9 Set-Off
and Waiver. Each Guarantor waives any right to assert against any Secured Party as a defense, counterclaim, set-off, recoupment or cross claim in respect of its Guarantors’ Obligations, any defense (legal or equitable) or other claim
which such Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any or all of the Secured Parties without waiving any additional defenses, set-offs, counterclaims or other claims otherwise available to such
Guarantor. Each Guarantor agrees that each Secured Party shall have a lien for all the Guarantors’ Obligations upon all deposits or deposit accounts, of any kind, or any interest in any deposits or deposit accounts, now or hereafter pledged,
mortgaged, transferred or assigned to such Secured Party or otherwise in the possession or control of such Secured Party for any purpose (other than solely for safekeeping) for the account or benefit of such Guarantor, including any balance of any
deposit account or of any credit of such Guarantor with the Secured Party, whether now existing or hereafter established, and hereby authorizes each Secured Party from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default at any time or times with or
without prior notice to apply such balances or any part thereof to such of the Guarantors’ Obligations to the Secured Parties then due and in such amounts as provided for in this Agreement or otherwise as they may elect. 

12.10 Waiver of Notice; Subrogation. 

(a) Each Guarantor hereby waives to the extent not otherwise expressly prohibited by applicable law notice of the following events or
occurrences: (i) acceptance of the Guaranty set forth in this Article XII; (ii) the Lenders’ heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter making Loans and issuing Letters of Credit and otherwise loaning monies or giving or
extending credit to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or otherwise entering into arrangements with any Loan Party giving rise to Guaranteed Liabilities, whether pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes or any other Loan
Document or Related Agreement or any amendments, modifications, or supplements thereto, or replacements or extensions thereof; (iii) presentment, demand, default, non-payment, partial payment and protest; and (iv) any other event,
condition, or occurrence described in Section 12.3. Each Guarantor agrees that each Secured Party may heretofore, now or at any time hereafter do any or all of the foregoing in such manner, upon such terms and at such times as each
Secured Party, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems advisable, without in any way or respect impairing, affecting, reducing or releasing such Guarantor from its Guarantors’ Obligations, and each Guarantor hereby consents to each and all
of the foregoing events or occurrences. 
 (b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that payment or performance by such Guarantor of its
Guarantors’ Obligations under this Article XII may be enforced by the Administrative Agent on behalf 

  
 143 

 
of the Secured Parties upon demand by the Administrative Agent to such Guarantor without the Administrative Agent being required, such Guarantor expressly waiving to the extent not otherwise
expressly prohibited by applicable law any right it may have to require the Administrative Agent, to (i) prosecute collection or seek to enforce or resort to any remedies against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of the
Guaranteed Liabilities, or (ii) seek to enforce or resort to any remedies with respect to any security interests, Liens or encumbrances granted to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or other party to a Related Agreement by the Borrower, any
other Guarantor or any other Person on account of the Guaranteed Liabilities or any guaranty thereof, IT BEING EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD, ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED BY SUCH GUARANTOR THAT DEMAND UNDER THE GUARANTY SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE XII MAY BE
MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AND THE PROVISIONS HEREOF ENFORCED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE FIRST DATE ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT OCCURS AND IS CONTINUING. 

(c) Each Guarantor further agrees that such Guarantor shall not exercise any of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution,
indemnity or recourse to security for the Guaranteed Liabilities until at least ninety-five (95) days immediately following the Payment in Full of the Secured Obligations shall have elapsed without the filing or commencement, by or against any
Loan Party, of any state or federal action, suit, petition or proceeding seeking any reorganization, liquidation or other relief or arrangement in respect of creditors of, or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, trustee or conservator in
respect to, such Loan Party or its assets. If an amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such rights at any time prior to the Payment in Full of the Secured obligations, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured
Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be credited and applied upon the Guarantors’ Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
or otherwise as the Secured Parties may elect. The agreements in this subsection shall survive repayment of all of the Guarantors’ Obligations, the termination or expiration of this Agreement in any manner and the Payment in Full of the Secured
Obligations. 
 12.11 No Stay. Without limitation of any other provision set forth in this Article XII, if any
declaration of default or acceleration or other exercise or condition to exercise of rights or remedies under or with respect to any Guarantors’ Obligation or any of the Guaranteed Liabilities shall at any time be stayed, enjoined, or prevented
for any reason (including but not limited to stay or injunction resulting from the pendency against any Loan Party or any other Person of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding), the Guarantors agree that, for the purposes of
this Article XII and their obligations hereunder, the Guarantors’ Obligations and the Guaranteed Liabilities shall be deemed to have been declared in default or accelerated, and such other exercise or conditions to exercise shall be
deemed to have been taken or met. 
 12.12 Additional Guarantors. At any time after the initial execution and delivery of this
Agreement to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, additional Persons may become parties to this Agreement and thereby acquire the duties and rights of being Guarantors hereunder by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders a duly executed Guarantor Joinder pursuant to this Agreement. No notice of the addition of any Guarantor shall be required to be given to any pre-existing Guarantor and each Guarantor hereby consents thereto. 

12.13 Reliance. Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties,
that: (a) such Guarantor has adequate means to obtain on a continuing basis (i) from the Borrower, information concerning the Loan Parties and the Loan Parties’ financial condition and affairs and (ii) from other reliable
sources, such other information as it deems material in deciding to provide its Guaranty under this Article XII and any Guarantor Joinder (“Other 

  
 144 

 
Information”), and has full and complete access to the Loan Parties’ books and records and to such Other Information; (b) such Guarantor is not relying on any Secured Party
or its or their employees, directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates, to provide any such information, now or in the future; (c) such Guarantor has been furnished with and reviewed the terms of such Loan Documents and Related
Agreements as it has requested, is executing this Agreement (or the Guarantor Joinder to which it is a party, as applicable) freely and deliberately, and understands the obligations and financial risk undertaken by providing its Guaranty under this
Agreement; (d) such Guarantor has relied solely on the Guarantor’s own independent investigation, appraisal and analysis of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, such Persons’ financial condition and affairs, the Other Information,
and such other matters as it deems material in deciding to provide this Guaranty and is fully aware of the same; and (e) such Guarantor has not depended or relied on any Secured Party or its or their employees, directors, agents or other
representatives or Affiliates, for any information whatsoever concerning the Borrower or the Borrower’s financial condition and affairs or any other matters material to such Guarantor’s decision to provide this Guaranty, or for any
counseling, guidance, or special consideration or any promise therefor with respect to such decision. Each Guarantor agrees that no Secured Party has any duty or responsibility whatsoever, now or in the future, to provide to such Guarantor any
information concerning the Borrower or any other Loan Party or such Persons’ financial condition and affairs, or any Other Information, other than as expressly provided herein, and that, if such Guarantor receives any such information from any
Secured Party or its or their employees, directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates, such Guarantor will independently verify the information and will not rely on any Secured Party or its or their employees, directors, agents or other
representatives or Affiliates, with respect to such information. 
 12.14 Receipt of Credit Agreement, Other Loan Documents,
Benefits. 
 (a) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and
each Guarantor certifies that the representations and warranties made therein with respect to such Guarantor are true and correct in all material respects. Further, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees to perform, comply with, and be bound by all
of the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents applicable to such Guarantor. 
 (b) Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges,
represents, and warrants that it receives direct and indirect benefits by virtue of its affiliation with Borrower and the other Guarantors and that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this
Agreement and that such benefits, together with the rights of contribution and subrogation that may arise in connection herewith are a reasonably equivalent exchange of value in return for providing the Guaranty set forth in this Article XII.

 12.15 Joinder. Each Person that shall at any time execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Guarantor Joinder shall
thereupon irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally become a party hereto and obligated hereunder as a Guarantor, and all references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the Guarantors or to the parties to this Guaranty shall be deemed to
include such Person as a Guarantor hereunder. 
 XIII. FULL DOMINION ACCOUNT

(a) Character of Account. Each of the Loan Parties hereby acknowledges and confirms that, on or before the Closing Date and pursuant to

Lenders, to serve as the “Full Dominion Account” (said account or accounts, and any account or accounts replacing the same in accordance with this Agreement, the “Full Dominion Account”). The Borrower and the other Loan
Parties acknowledge that, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Full Dominion Account Control Agreement, the Domestic Account Bank may comply only with instructions with regard to the Full Dominion Account and the contents and proceeds thereof
originated by the Administrative Agent, acting as the “Controlling Agent” as such term is defined in the Full Dominion Account Control Agreement (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement), without further consent by any of the
Borrower or the other Loan Parties. 
 (b) Name of Account. The Full Dominion Account shall be in the name of the Borrower, in favor
of the Administrative Agent, as first priority secured party for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and the Second Lien Administrative Agent, as second priority secured party for the benefit of the Second Lien Lenders; provided, that, if the
Administrative Agent or the Second Lien Administrative Agent is replaced, the Domestic Account Bank, at the departing Administrative Agent’s request or the departing Second Lien Administrative Agent’s request, shall change the name of the
secured party with respect to the Full Dominion Account to the name of the replacement thereof. However, in no case will any financial asset credited to the Full Dominion Account be registered in the name of the Borrower or any other Loan Party,
payable to the order of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or specially indorsed to the Borrower or any other Loan Party. 
 (c)
Permitted Cash Equivalents. If no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon not less than ten (10) Business Days prior written request from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent to deliver such instruction to
the Domestic Account Bank in its capacity as the “Controlling Agent” as such term is defined in the Full Dominion Account Control Agreement (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement), funds deposited in the Full Dominion Account
may be invested in Cash Equivalents; provided, that under no circumstances shall the Secured Parties or the Second Lien Lenders be liable for any losses that may be incurred by the Borrower or any of the other Loan Parties in the making of any such
investment. Any income earned from such Cash Equivalents and any interest, dividends or other earnings from amounts on deposit in the Full Dominion Account shall be added to the balance in the Full Dominion Account. The Full Dominion Account shall
be assigned the federal tax identification number of the Borrower. The Borrower shall be responsible for payment of any federal, state or local income or other tax applicable to income earned from such investment or otherwise from the Full Dominion
Account. 
 13.2 Deposits to and Disbursements from Full Dominion Account 

(a) Deposits into Full Dominion Account. 

(i) Voluntary Deposits. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties may pay directly into the Full Dominion Account (a) all or a

may elect. 
 (ii) Mandatory Deposits. The Loan Parties shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries, to pay directly into the Full
Dominion Account any Net Cash Proceeds of any issuance of Replacement Parent Notes not used to repurchase, redeem, repay or otherwise satisfy Existing Parent Notes substantially simultaneously with (and, in any event within two (2) Business Day
after) the issuance of such Replacement Parent Notes. 

  
 146 

 (b) Purposes of Disbursements from Full Dominion Account. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Article XIII and Section 7.6(g), the Borrower may request the Administrative Agent to authorize disbursements from the Full Dominion Account for the following purposes: 

(i) funding the repurchase, redeem, repay or otherwise satisfy Existing Parent Notes by direct wire to the holder of such Existing Parent
Notes, 
 (ii) in the event of an Agreed Extension, paying accrued interest due on the Existing Parent Notes by direct wire to the holder
of such Existing Parent Notes, or 
 (iii) if the Administrative Agent has received evidence satisfactory to it that all of the Existing
Parent Notes have been fully repurchase, redeem, repay or otherwise satisfy, of returning any remaining fund in the Full Dominion Account to the Borrower. 

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence or any of the terms of this Section 13.2, if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under
Section 9.1(l) or the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders are exercising any of their remedies under Section 9.1 with respect to any other Event of Default that has occurred and is continuing, all funds from the Full
Dominion Account shall be applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations as set forth in Section 9.2(b). 
 (c)
Disbursement Requests. The Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to repurchase, prepay or redeem Existing Parent Notes and shall deliver to
the Administrative Agent, not later than 6:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately preceding the proposed disbursement date, a duly completed and executed Request for Release of Funds From Full Dominion Account. Upon receipt of a duly completed and
executed Request for Release of Funds From Full Dominion Account in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall authorize the applicable Domestic Account Bank to make the requested
disbursements from the Full Dominion Account by 1:00 p.m. on the proposed disbursement date, which authorization may be in the form of the Instructions for Release of Funds From Full Dominion Account.
