 Exhibit 10.1 
 MATERION and SUBSIDIARIES 
 AMENDED MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN

 2012 PLAN YEAR 
 I. INTRODUCTION 
 The Management Incentive Plan (“the
Plan”) provides incentive compensation to eligible employees based principally on annual financial performance. Plan awards have a significant portion based on Company and/or Business Unit performance (“financial performance”), a
component that recognizes individual and combined contributions toward personal/team objectives (“Personal/Team Performance”), and, for some participants, a “relative” company peer group financial measure. 

II. DEFINITIONS 
 Plan Year:

 The fiscal year for which the Company’s Business Unit performance, and any Plan awards are calculated. 

Business Unit Performance: 
 The Executive Staff will designate the Business Units/Subsidiaries that are eligible for participation in the Plan for the Plan Year. 

Each business unit has defined financial performance measures, which have in turn been approved by the Compensation Committee of the
Board and/or the Executive Staff. These measures are expressed as a Minimum, Target and Maximum. Plan Awards include a “Financial Performance Component” based on the Business Unit performance. 

Personal/Team Performance: 
 An assessment is made of an individual’s achievements and his/her contributions to work/project teams during the Plan Year. This assessment is expressed as a percentage of base compensation. The
“Personal/Team Performance” component is distinct from the “Financial Performance” component. 
 Operating Profit
(“OP”): 
 Profit or loss, before interest and taxes, and for domestic and international operations. Operating
Profit will include any special write-off or accounting charge and accrued performance or incentive compensation. 
 Peer Group Return on
Invested Capital (ROIC) 
 The publicly available return on invested capital change for those peer group companies included
in the Company’s self-declared peer group in comparison to the Company. Due to the delays in reported information, the measurement period will include the fourth quarter of the prior year as well as the first three quarters of the current plan
year. This “relative” company peer group financial measure is an independent measure and is not influenced by any other financial performance measure set by the Company for the plan year. 

Working Capital: 
 This
is a monthly calculation based on Business Unit/Subsidiary worldwide accounts receivable and FIFO inventory divided by annualized worldwide sales (current month plus prior two months annualized). The result being working capital as a percent of
sales. At the end of the year the average of the twelve monthly, annualized sales numbers and twelve monthly working capital numbers (A/R and inventory) are calculated and a percent to sales is calculated based on the averages for the twelve
periods. This twelve-month average is the basis for the incentive metric for working capital management.

 Other Metrics: 
 From time to time, other metrics will be adopted that are aligned with a Business Unit’s strategy and market challenges. These metrics will be defined and tracked by the corporate accounting
department, subject to approval by the Executive Staff. 
 Base Compensation: 

The participant’s annual base salary in effect on September 30 of the Plan Year. 

III. PARTICIPATION 

At the beginning of the Plan Year, the Executive Staff will identify exempt, salaried employees whose responsibilities affect progress on
critical issues facing the Company. Those individuals selected by the Executive Staff will be notified of their participation in the Plan, their performance compensation grade and performance compensation opportunity, and their applicable Business
Unit designation. 
 Following the beginning of the Plan Year, the Executive Staff may admit new hires or individuals who are
promoted or assigned additional and significant responsibilities. The Executive Staff may also alter performance compensation grade assignments to reflect changed responsibilities of participants during the Plan Year. 

An employee who replaces or otherwise assumes the job functions or role of an employee, does not automatically assume the plan
participation that had applied to the incumbent. Rather, participation by the new or replacing employee must be individually considered and approved. 
 Participants who are newly employed before April 1 of the Plan year are eligible for full participation. Participants who are newly employed on or after April 1 and before July 1 are
eligible for half of any award available for Personal/Team and Financial (Business Unit and/or Company) performance. 
 Awards
for participants who transfer from the Exempt Salaried Performance Compensation Plan to the Management Incentive Plan will be pro-rated to the beginning of the month following the employee’s transfer to the Management Incentive Plan. Their
eligibility under the Exempt Salaried Performance Compensation Plan ceases for the Plan Year. 
 Changes in performance
compensation grade assignments will result in prorated participation in awards. 
 The eligibility of employees hired or with
changed job responsibilities after June 30 will not be considered until a possible, subsequent Plan Year. 
 Normally,
employees who are participants in any other annual incentive, commission or performance compensation plan are not eligible. The Executive Staff may consider prorated participation under special circumstances. 

With two exceptions, participants must be employed on the last day of the Plan Year in order to be eligible for any performance
compensation award. For a participant who becomes eligible for and who elects a severance option under the Chronic Beryllium Disease Policy as amended, any award under the Plan will be prorated to the beginning of the month after the employee
exercises the severance option. The second exception pertains to either a death of the participant or a retirement (at age 65 or at age 55 or older with 10 years of service), in which case, any award will be prorated to the beginning of the month
following the employee’s retirement date. In no event will a prorated award be earned where the proration percent is 1/3 or less. 
 Eligible employees who have been on a leave of absence in excess of 13 weeks during the plan year will have their award reduced on a pro-rata basis to reflect their actual contribution.

 IV. PERFORMANCE COMPENSATION OPPORTUNITY FOR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE 

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors will establish Minimum, Target and Maximum levels for each financial measurement.

 The Executive Staff will assign participants to a specific Business Unit/Subsidiary for the performance compensation
opportunity for Financial Performance. 
 Below is a summary of the performance compensation opportunity for the Plan Year.

  

					
	 Grade
	 	 Financial Component
	 	 Personal Team

	 D
	 	20%	 	0-14%
	 E
	 	10%	 	0-14%

 Opportunity for participants in Grades A, B and C will be individualized as determined by the
Compensation Committee or the Executive Staff. 
 The “Financial Performance” component of awards (Business Unit,
Company, sub-unit, and/or other measurement), will begin once the Minimum level has been attained for Operating Profit. None of the other financial components will result in an award unless the Minimum level for Operating Profit has been met.
Performance, which reaches or exceeds the Maximum value of the measure, will result in awards at 200 percent of Target opportunity. Award amounts for levels of achievement between Minimum and Target and between Target and Maximum will be prorated
according to the level of achievement. 
 Financial awards will be prorated for transfers between units (Business Unit and/or
Company) according to the length of service by months in each unit during the Plan Year. 
 V. PERFORMANCE COMPENSATION OPPORTUNITY for
PERSONAL/TEAM PERFORMANCE 
 An Operating Profit “threshold” may be established, which must be achieved in
order to make available a bonus opportunity to recognize the Personal/Team performance. If established, meeting this threshold would result in a Personal/Team opportunity payout. This threshold can be different than the Minimum Operating Profit
level necessary to create a Financial Performance opportunity. 
 No awards for Personal/Team performance will be paid if a
Threshold is established and is not met. 
 The “total pool” for Personal/Team performance of participants would
typically average about 10 percent of the base compensation of participants, if the Operating Profit metric meets or exceeds Target. Performance below Target could result in the total pool being reduced to a lesser amount. The Business Unit
Executive and the Executive Staff will decide allocation of the pool among eligible participants based on their performance throughout the plan year relative to achieving established goals and objectives. 

The Personal/Team achievement may be modified based on the Company’s Net Promoter Score (NPS). If NPS falls below 45.0, the
Personal/Team achievement will be reduced by 1% point. If NPS improves to 47.5 or greater, an additional 1% point will be added to the Personal/Team final achievement. 
 VI. PAYMENT 
 Distribution of any performance compensation awards
under the Plan to participants will be no later than March 15 of the year following the Plan Year.

 VIII. GENERAL PROVISIONS 

The Executive Staff has authority to make administrative decisions in the interests of the Plan. 

The Board of Directors, through its Compensation Committee, shall have final and conclusive authority for interpretation, application,
and possible modification of this Plan or established targets. The Board of Directors reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time. Subject to the preceding sentences, any determination by the Company’s independent accountants
shall be final and conclusive as it relates to the calculation of financial results. 
 This Plan is not a contract of
employment.EX-10.2

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the

 ARTICLE I 
 Definitions 

SECTION 1.01. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below: 

“ABR”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to a Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, bearing
interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate. 
 “Acquisition” means any transaction,
or any series of related transactions, consummated on or after the Effective Date, by which the Company or any Subsidiary (a) acquires any going business or all or substantially all of the assets of any Person, whether through purchase of
assets, merger or otherwise or (b) directly or indirectly acquires (in one transaction or as the most recent transaction in a series of transactions) at least a majority (in number of votes) of the Equity Interests of a Person which has
ordinary voting power for the election of directors or other similar management personnel of a Person (other than Equity Interests having such power only by reason of the happening of a contingency) or a majority of the outstanding Equity Interests
of a Person. 
 “Adjusted LIBO Rate” means, with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing for any Interest Period, an
interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/100 of 1%) equal to the sum of (i) (a) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate plus, without duplication,
(ii) in the case of Loans by a Lender from its office or branch in the United Kingdom, the Mandatory Cost. 

“Administrative Agent” means JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (including its branches and affiliates), in its capacity as
administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder. 

 “Administrative Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in a

 “Affected Foreign Subsidiary” means any Foreign Subsidiary to the
extent such Foreign Subsidiary acting as a Subsidiary Guarantor would cause a Deemed Dividend Problem or a Financial Assistance Problem.

(or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1%, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any day shall be based on the rate appearing on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or on any
successor or substitute page of such page) at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time on such day. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be effective
from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, respectively. 
 “Applicable Percentage” means, with respect to any Lender, the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment represented by such Lender’s Commitment; provided that, in the case of
Section 2.24 when a Defaulting Lender shall exist, “Applicable Percentage” shall mean the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment (disregarding any Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) represented by such Lender’s Commitment. If
the Commitments have terminated or expired, the Applicable Percentages shall be determined based upon the Commitments most recently in effect, giving effect to any assignments and to any Lender’s status as a Defaulting Lender at the time of
determination.

Section 5.01, Category 5 shall be deemed applicable for the period commencing three (3) Business Days after the required date of delivery and ending on the date which is three (3) Business Days after the Financials are actually
delivered, after which the Category shall be determined in accordance with the table above as applicable; 
 (ii)
adjustments, if any, to the Category then in effect shall be effective three (3) Business Days after the Administrative Agent has received the applicable Financials (it being understood and agreed that each change in Category shall apply during
the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change); and 
 (iii) notwithstanding the foregoing, Category 1 shall be deemed to be applicable until the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the applicable Financials for the Company’s first full or partial

SECTION 1.05. Amendment and Restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement. The parties to this Agreement agree that, upon
(i) the execution and delivery by each of the parties hereto of this Agreement and (ii) satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01, the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are
amended, superseded and restated in their entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to and shall not constitute a novation. All Loans made and Obligations incurred under the Existing Credit Agreement
which are outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue as Loans and Obligations under (and, as of the Effective Date, shall be governed by the terms of) this 

  
 23 

 
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, upon the effectiveness hereof: (a) all references in the “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit
Agreement) to the “Administrative Agent”, the “Credit Agreement” and the “Loan Documents” shall be deemed to refer to the Administrative Agent, this Agreement and the Loan Documents, (b) the Existing Letters of
Credit which remain outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue as Letters of Credit under (and, as of the Effective Date, shall be governed by the terms of) this Agreement, (c) all obligations constituting “Obligations” with any
Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender which are outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue as Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (d) the Administrative Agent shall make such reallocations, sales, assignments or
other relevant actions in respect of each Lender’s credit exposure under the Existing Credit Agreement as are necessary in order that each such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure and outstanding Revolving Loans hereunder reflect such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding aggregate Revolving Exposures on the Effective Date and (e) the Company hereby agrees to compensate each Lender for any and all losses, costs and expenses incurred by such Lender in
connection with the sale and assignment of any Eurocurrency Loans (including the “Eurocurrency Loans” under the Existing Credit Agreement) and such reallocation described above, in each case on the terms and in the manner set forth in
Section 2.16 hereof. 
 ARTICLE II 
 The Credits 
 SECTION 2.01. Commitments. Prior to the Effective Date,
certain loans were previously made to the Borrowers under the Existing Credit Agreement which remain outstanding as of the date of this Agreement (such outstanding loans being hereinafter referred to as the “Existing Loans”).
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Borrowers and each of the Lenders agree that on the Effective Date but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.01 and the reallocation
and other transactions described in Section 1.05, the Existing Loans shall, as of the Effective Date, be reevidenced as Loans under this Agreement and the terms of the Existing Loans shall be restated in their entirety and shall be evidenced by
this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrowers in Agreed Currencies from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not
result in (a) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the Dollar Amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Dollar Amount of such Lender’s Commitment, (b) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the sum of the
Dollar Amount of the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the Aggregate Commitment, (c) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the Dollar Amount of the total outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure, in each case denominated in Foreign
Currencies, exceeding the Foreign Currency Sublimit or (d) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the Dollar Amount of the total Revolving Credit Exposures in respect of Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers exceeding the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Sublimit.
Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans. 
 SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each Revolving Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Revolving Loans made by the Lenders ratably in
accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and
no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. 
 (b) Subject to
Section 2.14, each Revolving Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the relevant Borrower may request in accordance herewith; provided that each ABR Loan shall only be made in Dollars and shall only
be made to the Company. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan (and in the case of an Affiliate, the
provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 shall apply to such Affiliate to the same extent as to such Lender); provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay such Loan in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 24 

 (c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing
that is made to the Company, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or, if such Borrowing is denominated in (i) Japanese Yen, JPY100,000,000 or (ii) a Foreign Currency other than Japanese
Yen, 1,000,000 units of such currency) and not less than $3,000,000 (or, if such Borrowing is denominated in (i) Japanese Yen, JPY300,000,000 or (ii) a Foreign Currency other than Japanese Yen, 3,000,000 units of such currency). Subject to
paragraph (e) of this Section, at the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing that is made to a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of
$100,000 (or, if such Borrowing is denominated in (i) Japanese Yen, JPY10,000,000 or (ii) a Foreign Currency other than Japanese Yen, 100,000 units of such currency) and not less than $100,000 (or, if such Borrowing is denominated in
(i) Japanese Yen, JPY10,000,000 or (ii) a Foreign Currency other than Japanese Yen, 100,000 units of such currency). At the time that each ABR Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an
integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000; provided that an ABR Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Aggregate Commitment or that is required to finance the
reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e). Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $500,000. Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding
at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of eight (8) Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowings outstanding. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto
would end after the Maturity Date. 
 (e) An initial Borrowing from a Lender to any Borrower that
is organized under the laws of The Netherlands and any amount transferred to a new Lender in relation to a Loan or Commitment made to any Borrower that is organized under the laws of The Netherlands shall be at least
€50,000 (or its equivalent in another currency) or any other amount which becomes applicable at any time pursuant to Wijzigingsbesluit financiële markten 2012 (or any other regulation amending the currently applicable amount of
€50,000) or, if it is less, the Lender or such new Lender (as the case may be) shall confirm in writing to such relevant Borrower that it is a professional market party within the meaning of the Dutch Financial Supervision
Act. 
 SECTION 2.03. Requests for Revolving Borrowings. To request a Revolving Borrowing, the applicable Borrower, or the
Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request (a) by irrevocable written notice (via a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the applicable
Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, promptly followed by telephonic confirmation of such request) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days (in the case of
a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars to the Company) or by irrevocable written notice (via a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by such Borrower, or the Company on its behalf) not later
than four (4) Business Days (in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency or a Eurocurrency Borrowing to a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower), in each case before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) by
telephone in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, one (1) Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of an ABR Revolving Borrowing to finance the reimbursement
of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e) may be given not later than 10:00 a.m., Chicago time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by
hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower. Each such telephonic and
written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i)
the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; 
 (ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business
Day; 
 (iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; 

  
 25 

 (iv) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Agreed Currency and
initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and 
 (v) the location and number of the applicable Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.07. 

If no election as to the Type of Revolving Borrowing is specified, then, in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars to the Company, the requested
Revolving Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, then the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s
duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested
Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.04. Determination of Dollar Amounts. The Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Amount of:

 (a) each Eurocurrency Borrowing as of the date three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such Borrowing or, if
applicable, the date of conversion/continuation of any Borrowing as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, 
 (b) the LC Exposure as of the
date of each request for the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit, and 
 (c) all outstanding Credit
Events on and as of the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and, during the continuation of an Event of Default, on any other Business Day elected by the Administrative Agent in its discretion or upon instruction by the Required Lenders.

 Each day upon or as of which the Administrative Agent determines Dollar Amounts as described in the preceding clauses (a), (b) and
(c) is herein described as a “Computation Date” with respect to each Credit Event for which a Dollar Amount is determined on or as of such day. 
 SECTION 2.05. Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans in Dollars to the Company from time to time during
the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $25,000,000 or (ii) the Dollar Amount of the total
Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the Aggregate Commitment; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, the Company may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. 
 (b) To request a Swingline Loan,
the Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy), not later than 12:00 noon, Chicago time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the
requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Company. The Swingline Lender shall make each
Swingline Loan available to the Company by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Company with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in
Section 2.06(e), by remittance to the Issuing Bank) by 3:00 p.m., Chicago time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. 
 (c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., Chicago time, on any Business Day require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business
Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof
to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable 

  
 26 

 
Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement,
withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender
(and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall
notify the Company of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts
received by the Swingline Lender from the Company (or other party on behalf of the Company) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the
Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their
interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Company for any
reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Company of any default in the Company’s repayment of such Swingline Loan. 

SECTION 2.06. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company may
request the issuance of Letters of Credit denominated in Agreed Currencies for its own account or any Subsidiary, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the
Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Company to, or entered into by the
Company with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control; provided, however, if the Issuing Bank is requested to issue Letters of Credit with respect to a jurisdiction the
Issuing Bank deems, in its reasonable judgment, may at any time subject it to a New Money Credit Event or a Country Risk Event, the Company shall, at the request of the Issuing Bank, guaranty and indemnify the Issuing Bank against any and all costs,
liabilities and losses to the extent resulting from such New Money Credit Event or Country Risk Event, in each case in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank. The letters of credit identified on Schedule 2.06 (the
“Existing Letters of Credit”) shall be deemed to be “Letters of Credit” issued on the Effective Date for all purposes of the Loan Documents, except that the Issuing Bank shall not collect any issuance or fronting fee or
similar compensation with respect to the deemed issuance thereof on the Effective Date. 
 (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment,
Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Company shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic
communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the
issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is
to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the Agreed Currency applicable thereto, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to
prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Company also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A
Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Company shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension (i) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure shall not exceed $100,000,000, (ii) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the sum of the Dollar Amount of the total Revolving
Credit Exposures shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitment and (iii) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the 

  
 27 

 
Dollar Amount of the sum of the total outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure, in each case denominated in Foreign Currencies, shall not exceed the Foreign Currency Sublimit. 

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date
one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

 (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount
thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate Dollar Amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Company on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section,
or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Company for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that
each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 
 (e) Reimbursement.
If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Company shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent in Dollars the Dollar Amount equal to such LC Disbursement, calculated as of
the date the Issuing Bank made such LC Disbursement (or if the Issuing Bank shall so elect in its sole discretion by notice to the Company, in such other Agreed Currency which was paid by the Issuing Bank pursuant to such LC Disbursement in an
amount equal to such LC Disbursement) not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Company shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on such date, or, if such
notice has not been received by the Company prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Company receives such notice; provided that, if such LC
Disbursement is at least the Dollar Amount of $1,000,000, the Company may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or
Swingline Loan in an equivalent Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement and, to the extent so financed, the Company’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If
the Company fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Company in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.
Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Company, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such
Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly
following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Company pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this
paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding
of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Company of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. If the Company’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse,
any amounts in any Foreign Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in
Dollars, the Company shall, at its option, either (x) pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or 

  
 28 

 
the relevant Lender or (y) reimburse each LC Disbursement made in such Foreign Currency in Dollars, in an amount equal to the Equivalent Amount, calculated using the applicable Exchange
Rates, on the date such LC Disbursement is made, of such LC Disbursement. 
 (f) Obligations Absolute. The Company’s
obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all
circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that
does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Company’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason
of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission,
interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical
terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, nothing herein shall be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Company to the extent
of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Company to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Company that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise
care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing
Bank, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their
face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 
 (g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing
Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Company by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to
give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Company shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid
amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Company reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans (or in
the case such LC Disbursement is denominated in a Foreign Currency, at the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate for such Agreed Currency plus the then effective Applicable Rate with respect to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans); provided that,
if the Company fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except
that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

  
 29 

 (i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by
written agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement
shall become effective, the Company shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall
have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or
to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all
the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Company receives
notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant
to this paragraph, the Company shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 105% of
the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that (i) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Foreign Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in a Foreign
Currency that the Company is not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Foreign Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements and (ii) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral
shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Company described in clause (h) or
(i) of Article VII. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Foreign Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated using the applicable Exchange Rates on the date notice demanding cash collateralization is delivered to the Company. The Company also
shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b). Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. The
Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account and the Company hereby grants the Administrative Agent a security interest in the LC Collateral Account. Other than any
interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Company’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits,
if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so
applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Company for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing
greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations. If the Company is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the
extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Company within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. 
 (k) Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to Article VII, all amounts (i) that the Company is at the time or thereafter becomes
required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements made under any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect of which the Company has deposited cash collateral pursuant to
paragraph (j) above, if such cash collateral was deposited in the applicable Foreign Currency to the extent so deposited or applied), (ii) that the Lenders are at the time or thereafter become required to pay to the Administrative Agent
and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit
and (iii) of each Lender’s participation in any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action

required, be converted into the Dollar Amount, calculated using the Exchange Rates on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is
made), of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of the obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the
rates otherwise applicable hereunder. 
 SECTION 2.07. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to
be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds (i) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars to the Company, by 12:00 noon, Chicago time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most
recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders and (ii) in the case of each Loan denominated in a Foreign Currency or to a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, by 12:00 noon, Local Time, in the city of the Administrative
Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency and Borrower and at such Eurocurrency Payment Office; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans
available to the relevant Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to (x) an account of the Company maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City or Chicago and designated by the relevant Borrower in
the applicable Borrowing Request, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars to the Company and (y) an account of such Borrower and designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign
Currency or to a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.

 (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that
such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this
Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the
applicable Lender and such 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 such Borrower to
but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
interbank compensation (including without limitation the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency) or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender
pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.08. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving
Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the relevant Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency
Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated
ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or
continued. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower, or the Company on its behalf, shall notify the
Administrative Agent of such election (by telephone or irrevocable written notice in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars to the Company or by irrevocable written notice (via an Interest Election Request in a form approved by the
Administrative Agent and signed by such Borrower, or the Company on its behalf) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency or to a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under
Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be
confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the 

  
 31 

 
Administrative Agent and signed by the relevant Borrower, or the Company on its behalf. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section shall not be construed to permit any Borrower
to (i) change the currency of any Borrowing, (ii) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans that does not comply with Section 2.02(d) or (iii) convert any Borrowing to a Borrowing of a Type not available under the Class of
Commitments pursuant to which such Borrowing was made. 
 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify
the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest
Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses
(iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of
the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the
resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing
is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which Interest Period shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

 If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower
shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d) Promptly following receipt of an
Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless
such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period (i) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars borrowed by the Company, such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a
Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency (or in Dollars by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower) in respect of which the applicable Borrower shall have failed to deliver an Interest Election Request prior to the third (3rd) Business Day preceding
the end of such Interest Period, such Borrowing shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Borrowing in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month unless such Eurocurrency Borrowing is or was repaid in accordance with
Section 2.11. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Company, then, so long as an Event of
Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing borrowed by the Company may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing borrowed by the Company shall be
converted to an ABR Borrowing (and any such Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing in a Foreign Currency shall be redenominated in Dollars at the time of such conversion) at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) unless repaid,
each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall automatically be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month. 
 SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. 

(b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the
Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in
accordance with Section 2.11, the Dollar Amount of the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the Aggregate Commitment. 

  
 32 

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

SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to
pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan made to such Borrower on the Maturity Date in the currency of such Loan and (ii) in the case of the Company, to the
Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided
that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Company shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding. 
 (b) Each
Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and
paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record
(i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class, Agreed Currency and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each
Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima
facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (e) Any Lender may request that
Loans made by it to any Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the relevant Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to
such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including
after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

 SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. 
 (a) Any Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.11(a).
The applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment
hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not
later than 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, Chicago time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be
irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the
Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then 

  
 33 

 
such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same
Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by (i) accrued interest to the extent required by
Section 2.13 and (ii) break funding payments pursuant to Section 2.16. 
 (b) If at any time, (i) other than
as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, (A) the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all of the Revolving Credit Exposures (calculated, with respect to those Credit Events denominated in Foreign Currencies, as of the
most recent Computation Date with respect to each such Credit Event) exceeds the Aggregate Commitment or such sum in respect of Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers exceeds the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Sublimit or (B) the sum of the aggregate
principal Dollar Amount of all of the outstanding Revolving Credit Exposures denominated in Foreign Currencies (the “Foreign Currency Exposure”) (so calculated), as of the most recent Computation Date with respect to each such
Credit Event, exceeds the Foreign Currency Sublimit or (ii) solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, (A) the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all of the Revolving Credit Exposures (so calculated)
exceeds 105% of the Aggregate Commitment or such sum in respect of Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers exceeds 105% of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Sublimit or (B) the Foreign Currency Exposure, as of the most recent Computation Date with respect
to each such Credit Event, exceeds 105% of the Foreign Currency Sublimit, the Borrowers shall in each case immediately repay Borrowings or cash collateralize LC Exposure in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(j),
as applicable, in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to cause (x) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Revolving Credit Exposures (so calculated) to be less than or equal to the Aggregate Commitment, (y) the Foreign Currency Exposure
to be less than or equal to the Foreign Currency Sublimit and (z) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Revolving Credit Exposures in respect of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers to be less than the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Sublimit. 

SECTION 2.12. Fees. (a) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused Dollar Amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment
terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur
after the date hereof. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment
fees, (i) the Commitment of a Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender, and (ii) the Commitment of the Lender acting as Swingline
Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans, LC Exposure and Swingline Loans of such Lender. 
 (b) The Company agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue, in the
case of commercial Letters of Credit, at the Applicable Rate and, in the case of standby Letters of Credit, at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily Dollar Amount
of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment
terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily Dollar Amount of the LC
Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of
termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees and commissions (including, without limitation, standard commissions with respect to commercial Letters of
Credit, payable at the time of invoice of such amounts) with respect to the issuance, amendment, 

  
 34 

 
cancellation, negotiation, transfer, presentment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Unless otherwise specified above, participation fees and
fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third (3rd) Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date;
provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank
pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after invoice. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including
the first day but excluding the last day). 
 (c) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account,
fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) All
fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and
participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 
 SECTION 2.13. Interest.
(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. 

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

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest (i) computed by reference to
the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and (ii) for Borrowings denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be computed
on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined
by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate
of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing: 
 (a) the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

 (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate,
as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 

  
 35 

 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders by
telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the applicable Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election
Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and any such Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be repaid on the last day of the then current
Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) any Eurocurrency Borrowing by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower that is requested to be continued shall be repaid on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) if any
Borrowing Request by the Company requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing (and if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or
denominated in a Foreign Currency, such Borrowing Request shall be ineffective); provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

 SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs. (a) 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 by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank; 

(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense
affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or 
 (iii) subject the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other recipient of any payments to be made by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder to any Taxes on its
loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than the imposition or change in rate of any (A) Indemnified Taxes,
(B) Excluded Taxes or (C) Other Taxes); 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Person of
making or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed
Currency) or to increase the cost to such Person of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing
denominated in any other Agreed Currency) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Person hereunder, whether of principal, interest or otherwise (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing
denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed Currency), then the applicable Borrower will pay to such Person such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Person for such additional costs incurred or
reduction suffered. 
 (b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank reasonably determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this
Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing
Bank’s holding company could have achieved with respect thereto but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s
holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank
or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) A certificate of a
Lender or the Issuing Bank describing the Change in Law in reasonable detail and setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph
(a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the 

  
 36 

 
Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay, or cause the other Borrowers to pay, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on
any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank
to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the
Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such
increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive,
then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 SECTION 2.16.
Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any
prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on
the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(a) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the
last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event.
Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not
occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue,
for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the
commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurocurrency market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive
pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after
receipt thereof. 
 SECTION 2.17. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of each Borrower
hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum
payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law. 
 (b) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes related to such Borrower and imposed on or
incurred by the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Bank to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) The relevant Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed
or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally
imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate 

  
 37 

 
as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing
Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Any Foreign Lender
that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver
to such Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as will permit
such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. 
 (f) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in
its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall
pay over such refund to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such Borrower, upon the request of the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the
Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person. 
 (g) Each Lender shall severally
indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and
without limiting the obligation of each Borrower to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such amounts were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.17(g) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable
Lender a certificate stating the amount so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. 

(h) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement 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 Company and the Administrative Agent, at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company 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 Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for each Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not
complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(h), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to
FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Allocations of Proceeds; Pro Rata Treatment;
Sharing of Set-offs. 
 (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal,
interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or 

  
 38 

 
otherwise) prior to (i) in the case of payments denominated in Dollars by the Company, 12:00 noon, Chicago time and (ii) in the case of payments denominated in a Foreign Currency or by
a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, 12:00 noon, Local Time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency, in each case on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim.
Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made
(i) in the same currency in which the applicable Credit Event was made (or where such currency has been converted to euro, in euro) and (ii) to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 10 South Dearborn Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603
or, in the case of a Credit Event denominated in a Foreign Currency or to a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or
Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments denominated in
the same currency received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended
to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Credit
Event in any Foreign Currency, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that the type of currency in which the Credit Event was made (the “Original Currency”) no
longer exists or any Borrower is not able to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by such Borrower hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due
in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Borrowers take all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange
regulations. 
 (b) Any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting a specific payment
of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Company) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the
Required Lenders so direct, such funds shall be applied ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank from any Borrower, second, to
pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from any Borrower, third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans ratably, fourth, to prepay principal on the Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements and any
other amounts owing with respect to Banking Services Obligations and Swap Obligations ratably, fifth, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all
outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate amount of any unpaid LC Disbursements, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, and sixth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender
by any Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Company, or unless an Event of Default is in existence, none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall apply any payment which it
receives to any Eurocurrency Loan of a Class, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurocurrency Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans of the
same Class and, in any event, the Borrowers shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.16. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply
any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations. 
 (c) At the election of the Administrative
Agent, all payments of principal, interest, LC Disbursements, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including, without limitation, all reimbursement for fees and expenses pursuant to Section 9.03), and other sums payable under the Loan
Documents, may be paid from the proceeds of Borrowings made hereunder whether made following a request by a Borrower (or the Company on behalf of a Borrower) pursuant to Section 2.03 or a deemed request as provided in this Section or may be
deducted from any deposit account of such Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes (i) the Administrative Agent to make a Borrowing for the purpose of paying each payment of principal,
interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due under the Loan Documents and 

  
 39 

 
agrees that all such amounts charged shall constitute Loans (including Swingline Loans) and that all such Borrowings shall be deemed to have been requested pursuant to Sections 2.03, 2.04 or
2.05, as applicable and (ii) the Administrative Agent to charge any deposit account of the relevant Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other
amount due under the Loan Documents. 
 (d) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its
Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the
aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of
the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to
any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC
Disbursements and Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the
extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully
as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower under this Agreement in the amount of such participation. 
 (e) Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the relevant Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will not make
such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount
due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such
Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (including without limitation the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency). 

(f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b),
2.18(e) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit
of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account
as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections; in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion. 

SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15,
or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending
office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such 

  
 40 

 
Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, 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 Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or
assignment. 
 (b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, (ii) any Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice
to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under the Loan
Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent (and if a Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in
LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of
all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such
compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and
delegation cease to apply. 
 SECTION 2.20. Expansion Option. The Company may from time to time elect to increase the
Commitments or enter into one or more tranches of term loans (each an “Incremental Term Loan”), in each case in minimum increments of $25,000,000 so long as, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of such increases and
all such Incremental Term Loans does not exceed $100,000,000. The Company may arrange for any such increase or tranche to be provided by one or more Lenders (each Lender so agreeing to an increase in its Commitment, or to participate in such
Incremental Term Loans, an “Increasing Lender”), or by one or more new banks, financial institutions or other entities (each such new bank, financial institution or other entity, an “Augmenting Lender”), to increase
their existing Commitments, or to participate in such Incremental Term Loans, or extend Commitments, as the case may be; provided that (i) each Augmenting Lender, shall be subject to the approval of the Company and the Administrative
Agent and (ii) (x) in the case of an Increasing Lender, the Company and such Increasing Lender execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, and (y) in the case of an Augmenting Lender, the Company and
such Augmenting Lender execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto. No consent of any Lender (other than the Lenders participating in the increase or any Incremental Term Loan) shall be required for any increase in
Commitments or Incremental Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.20. Increases and new Commitments and Incremental Term Loans created pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall become effective on the date agreed by the Company, the Administrative
Agent and the relevant Increasing Lenders or Augmenting Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Commitments (or in the Commitment of any Lender) or tranche of
Incremental Term Loans shall become effective under this paragraph unless, (i) on the proposed date of the effectiveness of such increase or Incremental Term Loans, (A) the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of
Section 4.02 shall be satisfied or waived by the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Company and (B) the Company shall be
in compliance (on a Pro Forma Basis) with the covenants contained in Section 6.11 and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date as to the corporate power and authority
of the Borrowers to borrow hereunder after giving effect to such increase. On the effective date of any increase in the Commitments or any Incremental Term Loans being made, (i) each relevant Increasing Lender and Augmenting Lender shall make
available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other Lenders, as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase and the
use of such amounts to make payments to such other Lenders, each Lender’s portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of all the Lenders to equal its Applicable Percentage of such outstanding Revolving Loans, and

  
 41 

 
(ii) except in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Revolving Loans as of the date of any increase in the
Commitments (with such reborrowing to consist of the Types of Revolving Loans, with related Interest Periods if applicable, specified in a notice delivered by the applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, in
accordance with the requirements of Section 2.03). The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued interest on the amount prepaid and, in respect of each
Eurocurrency Loan, shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.16 if the deemed payment occurs other than on the last day of the related Interest Periods. The Incremental Term Loans
(a) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Revolving Loans, (b) shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date (but may have amortization prior to such date) and (c) shall be treated substantially the same as (and in any
event no more favorably than) the Revolving Loans; provided that (i) the terms and conditions applicable to any tranche of Incremental Term Loans maturing after the Maturity Date may 

provide for material additional or different financial or other covenants or prepayment requirements applicable only during periods after the Maturity
Date and (ii) the Incremental Term Loans may be priced differently than the Revolving Loans. Incremental Term Loans may be made hereunder pursuant to an amendment or restatement (an “Incremental Term Loan Amendment”) of this
Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrowers, each Increasing Lender participating in such tranche, each Augmenting Lender participating in such tranche, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental
Term Loan Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the
provisions of this Section 2.20. Nothing contained in this Section 2.20 shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase its Commitment hereunder, or provide Incremental Term Loans, at any
time. 
 SECTION 2.21. Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in Article II and
Article IV with respect to any Credit Event to be effected in any Foreign Currency, if (i) there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Credit Event any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or
currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank (if such Credit Event is a Letter of Credit) or the Required Lenders make it impracticable for the Eurocurrency
Borrowings or Letters of Credit comprising such Credit Event to be denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by the applicable Borrower or (ii) an Equivalent Amount of such currency is not readily calculable, then the Administrative Agent
shall forthwith give notice thereof to such Borrower, the Lenders and, if such Credit Event is a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank, and such Credit Events shall not be denominated in such Agreed Currency but shall, except as otherwise set forth in
Section 2.07, be made on the date of such Credit Event in Dollars, (a) if such Credit Event is a Borrowing, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Credit Event
Request or Interest Election Request, as the case may be, as ABR Loans, unless such Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day before such date that (i) it elects not to borrow on such date or (ii) it elects to
borrow on such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Loans would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Credit Event Request or Interest Election Request, as the case may be or (b) if such Credit Event is a Letter of Credit, in a face amount equal to the Dollar
Amount of the face amount specified in the related request or application for such Letter of Credit, unless such Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day before such date that (i) it elects not to request
the issuance of such Letter of Credit on such date or (ii) it elects to have such Letter of Credit issued on such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Letter of Credit would in the
reasonable opinion of the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders be practicable and in face amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the face amount specified in the related request or application for such Letter of Credit, as
the case may be. 
 SECTION 2.22. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is
necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do
so, 

  
 42 

 
that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the
Administrative Agent’s main New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder
shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to
be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified
currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation
and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.18, such Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to such Borrower. 
 SECTION 2.23. Designation of
Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. The Company may at any time and from time to time designate any Eligible Foreign Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by
such Subsidiary and the Company and the satisfaction of the other conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.03, and upon such delivery and satisfaction such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower
and a party to this Agreement until the Company shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower and a party to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Borrower
shall be outstanding hereunder; provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate the right of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to make further Borrowings under this Agreement. As soon as practicable upon
receipt of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall furnish a copy thereof to each Lender. 
 SECTION
2.24. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

 (b) the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the
Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender
in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02(b) requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby; 
 (c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but
only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments; 

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall
within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, 

  
 43 

 
prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank only the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC
Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; 

(iii) if the Company cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause
(ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is
cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause
(i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.12(a) and 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and 

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized
pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and 
 (d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter
of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Company in
accordance with Section 2.24(c), and participating interests in any such newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with
Section 2.24(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 
 If (i) a Lender Bankruptcy Event with
respect to a Parent of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling any of its
funding obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any
Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Company or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any
risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder. 
 In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company, the Swingline Lender
and the Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion
of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold
such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. 
 ARTICLE III 

Representations and Warranties 
 Each Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that: 
 SECTION 3.01.
Organization; Powers; Subsidiaries. Each Loan Party is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is
qualified to do business in, and is in good standing (to the extent such concept is 

  
 44 

 
applicable) in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required. Schedule 3.01 hereto (as supplemented from time to time) identifies each Subsidiary, if such Subsidiary is a
Material Subsidiary, the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, as the case may be, the percentage of issued and outstanding shares of each class of its capital stock or other equity interests owned by the Company and the other
Subsidiaries and, if such percentage is not 100% (excluding directors’ qualifying shares as required by law), a description of each class issued and outstanding. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock and other equity interests of each
Loan Party (other than the Company) are validly issued and outstanding and fully paid and nonassessable and all such shares and other equity interests indicated on Schedule 3.01 as owned by the Company or another Loan Party are owned,
beneficially and of record, by the Company or any other Loan Party free and clear of all Liens, other than Liens created under the Loan Documents. There are no outstanding commitments or other obligations of any Loan Party to issue, and no options,
warrants or other rights of any Person to acquire, any shares of any class of capital stock or other equity interests of any Loan Party, except pursuant to compensation plans of the Loan Parties. 

SECTION 3.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions are within each Loan Party’s corporate powers and have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate and, if required, shareholder action. The Loan Documents to which each Loan Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of such
Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of
whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 SECTION 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The
Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and except for filings
necessary to perfect Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents, (b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of any Loan Party or any order of any Governmental Authority,
(c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture or material agreement or other instrument binding upon any Loan Party or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Loan Party, and
(d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) on any asset of any Loan Party, except Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents.

 ARTICLE VIII 
 The Administrative Agent 

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the
Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. 
 The bank 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 such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of
business with Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. 
 The
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other
implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any 

  
 60 

 
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not
have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its
Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary
under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is
given to the Administrative Agent by the Company or a Lender, and 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
any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or
conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV
or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or (vi) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral.

 The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice,
request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by
telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other
experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and
any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs 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 provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may
resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right (with the consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided
that no such consent shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after
the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York,
New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by any Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor
unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 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 it was acting as Administrative Agent. 

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on
such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own 

  
 61 

 
credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and
based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any
document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 None of the Lenders, if any, identified in this Agreement as a Co-Syndication
Agent shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a
fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to the relevant Lenders in their respective capacities as Co-Syndication Agents as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in the
preceding paragraph. 
 Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights of any Lender, in accordance with Section 9.08,
the proceeds of which are applied in accordance with this Agreement, each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against any Loan Party or with respect to any Loan Document, without the prior
written consent of the Required Lenders or, as may be provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, with the consent of the Administrative Agent. 
 The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act
for, any other Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement. 
 In its capacity, the Administrative Agent is a “representative” of the Holders of
Secured Obligations within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the UCC. Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into each of the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and to take all action
contemplated by such documents. Each Lender agrees that no Holder of Secured Obligations (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being
understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations upon the terms of the Collateral Documents. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter
pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations any Loan
Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations. The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its
discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) as described in Section 9.02(c); (ii) as permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; or
(iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, unless such release is required to be approved by all of the Lenders hereunder. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in
writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant hereto. Upon any sale or transfer of assets constituting Collateral which is permitted pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, or
consented to in writing by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, and upon at least five Business Days’ prior written request by the Company to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby
irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations herein or pursuant hereto upon the
Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable opinion, would expose
the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Secured
Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by any Loan Party, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

 Each Borrower, on its behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, and each Lender, on its
behalf and on the behalf of its affiliated Holders of Secured Obligations, hereby irrevocably constitute the Administrative Agent as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir within the meaning of Article 2692 of
the Civil Code of Québec) in order to hold hypothecs and security granted by each Borrower or any Subsidiary on property pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure obligations of any Borrower or any Subsidiary under any bond,
debenture or similar title of indebtedness issued by any Borrower or any Subsidiary in connection with this Agreement, and agree that the Administrative Agent may act as the bondholder and mandatary with respect to any bond, debenture or similar
title of indebtedness that may be issued by any Borrower or any Subsidiary and pledged in favor of the Holders of Secured Obligations in connection with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 32 of the An Act respecting the
special powers of legal persons (Quebec), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent may acquire and be the holder of any bond issued by any Borrower or any Subsidiary in connection with this Agreement (i.e., the fondé de
pouvoir may acquire and hold the first bond issued under any deed of hypothec by any Borrower or any Subsidiary). 
 The
Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to execute and deliver any documents necessary or appropriate to create and perfect the rights of pledge for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations including a right of pledge with respect to the
entitlements to profits, the balance left after winding up and the voting rights of the Company as ultimate parent of any Subsidiary which is organized under the laws of the Netherlands and the Equity Interests of which are pledged in connection
herewith (a “Dutch Pledge”). Without prejudice to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree with the creation of parallel debt obligations of the Company or any relevant
Subsidiary as will be described in any Dutch Pledge (the “Parallel Debt”), including that any payment received by the Administrative Agent in respect of the Parallel Debt will—conditionally upon such payment not subsequently
being avoided or reduced by virtue of any provisions or enactments relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, preference, liquidation or similar laws of general application—be deemed a satisfaction of a pro rata portion of the corresponding amounts of
the Secured Obligations, and any payment to the Holders of Secured Obligations in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall—conditionally upon such payment not subsequently being avoided or reduced by virtue of any provisions or enactments
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, preference, liquidation or similar laws of general application—be deemed as satisfaction of the corresponding amount of the Parallel Debt. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, for purposes of a
Dutch Pledge, any resignation by the Administrative Agent is not effective until its rights under the Parallel Debt are assigned to the successor Administrative Agent. 
 The parties hereto acknowledge and agree for the purposes of taking and ensuring the continuing validity of German law governed pledges (Pfandrechte) with the creation of parallel debt obligations
of the Company and its Subsidiaries as will be further described in a separate German law governed parallel debt undertaking. The Administrative Agent shall (i) hold such parallel debt undertaking as fiduciary agent (Treuhänder) and
(ii) administer and hold as fiduciary agent (Treuhänder) any pledge created under a German law governed Collateral Document which is created in favor of any Holder of Secured Obligations or transferred to any Holder of Secured
Obligations due to its accessory nature (Akzessorietät), in each case in its own name and for the account of the Holders of Secured Obligations. Each Lender (on behalf of itself and its affiliated Holders of Secured Obligations) hereby
authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter as its agent in its name and on its behalf into any German law governed Collateral Document, accept as its agent in its name and on its behalf any pledge or other creation of any accessory security right
in relation to this Agreement and to agree to and execute on its behalf as its representative in its name and on its behalf any amendments, supplements and other alterations to any such Collateral Document and to release on behalf of any such Lender
or Holder of Secured Obligations any such Collateral Document and any pledge created under any such Collateral Document in accordance with the provisions herein and/or the provisions in any such Collateral Document.

 (b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications
pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative Agent

notices or communications. 
 (c) Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications
hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt. 

SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in
exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or
power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and
are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by
paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter
of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

  
 64 

 (b) Except as provided in Section 2.20 with respect to an Incremental Term Loan
Amendment, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative
Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC
Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or
LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly
affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.18(b) or (d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or
the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the
written consent of each Lender (it being understood that, solely with the consent of the parties prescribed by Section 2.20 to be parties to an Incremental Term Loan Amendment, Incremental Term Loans may be included in the determination of
Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Commitments and the Revolving Loans are included on the Effective Date), (vi) release the Company or all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under
Article X or the Subsidiary Guaranty without the written consent of each Lender, or (vii) except as provided in clause (d) of this Section or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the
written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Borrower to each relevant Loan Document (x) to add one or
more credit facilities (in addition to the Incremental Term Loans pursuant to an Incremental Term Loan Amendment) to this Agreement and to permit extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in
respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Revolving Loans, Incremental Term Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders
holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Lenders. 
 (d) The Lenders hereby irrevocably
authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of all the Commitments, payment and
satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations), and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) constituting property being
sold or disposed of if the Company certifies to the Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further
inquiry), (iii) constituting property leased to the Company or any Subsidiary under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or (iv) as required to effect any sale or other disposition
of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those
expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. 

(e) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender
directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a
“Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Company may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that, concurrently with such replacement,

  
 65 

 
(i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other
Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to
comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.04, and (ii) each Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but
unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by such Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.15 and 2.17, and (2) an amount, if any, equal to
the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 2.16 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender. 

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Borrowers only, amend, modify or
supplement this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency. 

SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Company shall pay (i) 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 syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the
internet or through a service such as Intralinks) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and 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), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any
Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or
Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 

(b) The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each 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 reasonable fees, charges and disbursements
of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the
performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom
(including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or
alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Company 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 Company or any of its Subsidiaries, 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 are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 
 (c) To the extent that the Company fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or

  
 66 

 
indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (it being understood that the Company’s failure to pay any such amount shall not relieve the Company of any default in the payment
thereof); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in
its capacity as such. 
 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby
waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained directly or indirectly from an Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information
transmission systems (including the Internet), or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than fifteen (15) days after written demand therefor. 

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or
obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. 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
(including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b)(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may 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 and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: 
 (A) the Company (provided that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten
(10) Business Days after having received notice thereof); provided further that no consent of the Company shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; 
 (B) the Administrative Agent; and 

(C) the Issuing Bank. 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of
any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be
less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(B) 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; provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments
or Loans; 

  
 67 

 (C) 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, such fee to be paid by either the assigning Lender or the assignee Lender or shared between such Lenders; 

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire
in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Company and its affiliates and their Related Parties or their respective securities)
will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws; and 

(E) other than assignments to an existing Lender, assignments shall always be in an amount exceeding €50,000 or the
equivalent thereof in a foreign currency. 
 For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved
Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by
(a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall
be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease
to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04
shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. 

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each
Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof
from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant
to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from
time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an
assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any
written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the
assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such
Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement
unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c)(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the
Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
other parties hereto for the performance of 

  
 68 

 
such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement 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 the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the
same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it
were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. 
 (ii)
A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Company is notified of
the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(e)
shall be delivered to the participating 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 obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any
portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in the obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary
to establish that such interest 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. 
 (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge
or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender
from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 SECTION
9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation
made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is
extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any
Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

 SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by
different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any

  
 69 

 
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 Section 4.01, 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 which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular
provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 9.08. Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final and in whatever currency denominated) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any
Subsidiary Guarantor against any of and all the Secured Obligations held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of
each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
 SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 

(b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the
Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any
Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York
State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in
any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c) Each
Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service
of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower irrevocably designates and appoints the Company, as its authorized agent, to accept and acknowledge on its behalf, service of any and all process
which may be served in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 9.09(b) in any federal or New York State court sitting in New York City. The Company hereby represents, warrants and confirms that the Company has agreed
to accept such appointment (and any similar appointment by a Subsidiary Guarantor which is a Foreign Subsidiary). Said designation and appointment shall be irrevocable by each such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower

  
 70 

 
until all Loans, all reimbursement obligations, interest thereon and all other amounts payable by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been
paid in full in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof and such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall have been terminated as a Borrower hereunder pursuant to Section 2.23. Each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereby consents to process
being served in any suit, action or proceeding of the nature referred to in Section 9.09(b) in any federal or New York State court sitting in New York City by service of process upon the Company as provided in this Section 9.09(d);
provided that, to the extent lawful and possible, notice of said service upon such agent shall be mailed by registered or certified air mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Company and (if applicable to) such Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower at its address set forth in the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement to which it is a party or to any other address of which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall have given written notice to the Administrative Agent (with a copy
thereof to the Company). Each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all claim of error by reason of any such service in such manner and agrees that such service shall be deemed in every respect
effective service of process upon such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in any such suit, action or proceeding and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be taken and held to be valid and personal service upon and personal delivery to such
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. To the extent any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether from service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment
in aid of execution of a judgment, execution or otherwise), each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under the Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will
affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
 SECTION 9.10. WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR
OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE
MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table
of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being
understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of 
 the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to
keep such Information confidential), and that the disclosing Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender will be responsible for any unauthorized disclosure by any of its foregoing affiliated Persons), (b) to the extent requested by any
regulatory authority (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 to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any suit, 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 or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company or
(h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a 

  
 71 

 
breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company. For the purposes
of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Company or any Subsidiary relating to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or its business, other than any such information that is available to the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company. 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. 

SECTION 9.13. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56
(signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Borrower, which
information includes the name and address of such Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower in accordance with the Act. 
 SECTION 9.14. Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Holders
of Secured Obligations, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such
Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the
Administrative Agent’s instructions. 
 ARTICLE X 
 Cross-Guarantee 
 In order to induce the Lenders to extend credit to the
other Borrowers hereunder, but subject to the last sentence of this Article X, each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of the Secured Obligations.
Each Borrower further agrees that the due and punctual payment of the Secured Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder
notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any Secured Obligation. 
 Each Borrower waives presentment to, demand of
payment from and protest to any Borrower of any of the Secured Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall not be affected by
(a) the failure of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise;
(b) any extension or renewal of any of the Secured Obligations; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or release from, any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, or any other Loan Document or agreement;
(d) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Secured Obligations; (e) the failure of the Administrative Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain any security interest in, or to preserve
any rights to, any security or collateral for the Secured Obligations, if any; (f) any change in the corporate, partnership or other existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Secured Obligations;
(g) the enforceability or validity of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to any collateral securing the Secured Obligations or any part
thereof, or any other invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Secured Obligations, for any reason related to this Agreement, any Swap Agreement, any Banking Services Agreement, any
other Loan Document, or any provision of applicable law, decree, order or regulation of any jurisdiction purporting to prohibit the payment by such Borrower or any other guarantor of the Secured Obligations, of any of the Secured Obligations or
otherwise affecting any term of any of the Secured Obligations; or (h) any other act, omission or delay to do any other act 

  
 72 

 
which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Borrower or otherwise operate as a discharge of a guarantor as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate
any right of such Borrower to subrogation. 
 Each Borrower further agrees that its agreement hereunder constitutes a guarantee
of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Secured Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require
that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in favor of any Borrower or any other Person.

 The obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for
any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Secured Obligations, any impossibility in the performance
of any of the Secured Obligations or otherwise. 
 Each Borrower further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to
be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Secured Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender upon the bankruptcy or
reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise. 
 In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have at law or in equity against any Borrower by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any other Borrower to pay any Secured Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at
maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Borrower hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in cash an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the Secured Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Each Borrower further agrees that if
payment in respect of any Secured Obligation shall be due in a currency other than Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York, Chicago or any other Eurocurrency Payment Office and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of
currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of the Secured Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or any Lender, disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in any material respect, then, at the election of the Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall make payment of the Secured Obligation in Dollars (based
upon the applicable Equivalent Amount in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, Chicago or such other Eurocurrency Payment Office as is designated by the Administrative Agent and, as a separate and independent obligation, shall
indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and any Lender against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment. 

Upon payment by any Borrower of any sums as provided above, all rights of such Borrower against any Borrower arising as a result thereof
by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations owed by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank and the Lenders. 
 Nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of any Borrower hereunder except the full
performance and payment of the Secured Obligations. 
 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article X to the contrary, no
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower which is and remains an Affected Foreign Subsidiary shall be liable hereunder for any of the Loans made to, or any other Secured Obligation incurred solely by or on behalf of, the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor which
is a Domestic Subsidiary.

 SCHEDULE 2.02 
 MANDATORY COST 
  

	1.	The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the
Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank. 

 

	2.	On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the
“Associated Costs Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Associated Costs Rates (weighted
in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum. 

  

	3.	The Associated Costs Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the
Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from
that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office. 

  

	4.	The Associated Costs Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows:

  

	 	(a)	in relation to a Loan in Pounds Sterling: 

  

			
	
 AB + C(B-D) 
+ E x 0.01 
 100- (A+C)
	 	per cent. per annum

  

	 	(b)	in relation to a Loan in any currency other than Pounds Sterling: 

  

			
	  E x 0.01 

300
	 	per cent. per annum

 Where: 
  

	 	A	is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an
interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements. 

  

	 	B	is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Rate and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in
Section 2.13(c)) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan. 

  

	 	C	is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of
England. 

  

	 	D	is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits. 

 

	 	E	is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent rates
of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000. 

  

	5.	For the purposes of this Schedule: 

  

	 	(a)	“Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of
England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England; 

	 	(b)	“Facility Office” means the office or offices notified by a Lender to the Administrative Agent in writing on or before the date it becomes a Lender
(or, following that date, by not less than five Business Days’ written notice) as the office or offices through which it will perform its obligations under this Agreement. 

 

	 	(c)	“Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the Financial Services Authority Fees Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in
force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits; 

  

	 	(d)	“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated
fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); 

  

	 	(e)	“Participating Member State” means any member state of the European Union that adopts or has adopted the euro as its lawful currency in accordance with
legislation of the European Union relating to economic and monetary union. 

  

	 	(f)	“Reference Banks” means, in relation to Mandatory Cost, the principal London offices of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. 

 

	 	(g)	“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules. 

 

	 	(h)	“Unpaid Sum” means any sum due and payable but unpaid by any Borrower under the Loan Documents. 

 

	6.	In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not
as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places. 

  

	7.	If requested by the Administrative Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the
Administrative Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that
Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank. 

 

	8.	Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Associated Costs Rate. In particular, but without
limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender: 

  

	 	(i)	the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and 

  

	 	(j)	any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose. 

 Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph. 

 

	9.	The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the
Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash
ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office. 

 

	10.	The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Associated Costs Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and
shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects. 

	11.	The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Associated Costs Rate for
each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above. 

  

	12.	Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Associated Costs Rate or any amount payable to
a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto. 

  

	13.	The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Company and the relevant Lenders, determine and notify to all parties hereto any amendments
which are required to be made to this Schedule 2.02 in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any
case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

expressed in paragraph (a) below, we have relied solely upon the Official Status Certificates as to the factual matters and legal conclusions set forth therein. With respect to the opinions expressed in clause (i) of paragraph (b)

section entitled “Business” under Item 1 of the Form 10-K, as filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2011, in respect of such matters (the “Public Filing”) and without any
independent investigation or verification on our part and (y) to only those laws and regulations that, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Documents.

respective business substantially as described in the Public Filing and (ii) enter into and to incur and perform its obligations under the Documents to which it is a party. 

SECTION 13.03. The execution and delivery to the Agent by each Transaction Party (other than MNR and MAMTS Netherlands) of the Documents
to which it is a party and the performance by such Transaction Party of its obligations thereunder, and the granting by each Transaction Party (other than MNR and MAMTS Netherlands) of the security interests provided for in the Security Agreement:

 (i) have been authorized by all necessary corporate action by such Transaction Party; 

(ii) do not require under present law, or present regulation of any governmental agency or authority, of the State of New

has not been made or obtained except those required in the ordinary course of business in connection with the performance by such Transaction Party of its obligations under certain covenants contained in the Documents to which it is a party and to
perfect security interests, if any, granted by such Transaction Party thereunder (without limiting the opinions expressed in paragraphs (f) and (g) below) and pursuant to securities and other laws that may be applicable to the
disposition of any collateral subject thereto and other filings under securities laws and filings, registrations, consents or approvals in each case not required to be made or obtained by the date hereof; 

(iii) do not contravene any provision of the Certified Organizational Documents of such Transaction Party (the opinion in
this clause (iii) being limited solely to our review of the Certified Organizational Documents of such Transaction Party); 

 (iv) do not violate (A) any present law, or present regulation of any
governmental agency or authority, of the State of New York or the United States of America applicable to such Transaction Party or its property or (B) any agreement binding upon such Transaction Party or its property that is listed on
Annex I to the Officer’s Certificate or any court decree or order binding upon such Transaction Party or its property that is listed on Annex I to the Officer’s Certificate (the opinion in this clause (iv) being
limited in that we express no opinion with respect to any violation not readily ascertainable from the face of any such agreement, or arising under or based upon any cross default provision insofar as it relates to a default under an agreement not
so identified to us, or arising under or based upon any covenant of a financial or numerical nature or requiring computation); and 
 (v) will not result in or require the creation or imposition of any security interest or lien upon any of its properties pursuant to the provisions of any agreement binding upon such Transaction Party or
its property that is listed on Annex I to the Officer’s Certificate other than any security interests or liens created by the Documents and any other security interests or liens in favor of the Secured Party or the Holders of
Secured Obligations arising under any of the Documents or applicable law. 
 SECTION 13.04. Each Document has been duly executed
and delivered on behalf of each Transaction Party (other than MNR and MAMTS Netherlands) signatory thereto. Each Document constitutes a valid and binding obligation of each Transaction Party (other than MNR and MAMTS Netherlands), enforceable
against such Transaction Party in accordance with its terms. 
 SECTION 13.05. The Security Agreement creates in favor of the
Secured Party for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations, as security for the Secured Obligations, a security interest in the respective right, title and interest of each Transaction Party (other than MNR and MAMTS Netherlands) in the
Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) to which Article 9 of the NY UCC is applicable (the “Article 9 Collateral”). 
 SECTION 13.06. The Ohio Financing Statements are in proper form for filing in the Ohio Filing Office. Upon the effective filing of the Ohio Financing Statements with the Ohio Filing Office, the Secured
Party will have, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations, a perfected security interest in that portion of the Ohio Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing an initial financing statement with the
Ohio Filing Office under the OH UCC (the “Ohio Filing Collateral”). 
 SECTION 13.07. The New York Financing
Statement is in proper form for filing in the New York Filing Office. Upon the effective filing of the New York Financing Statement with the New York Filing Office, the Secured Party will have, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations,
a perfected security interest in that portion of the New York Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing an initial financing statement with the New York Filing Office under the NY UCC (the “New York
Filing Collateral”). 
 SECTION 13.08. The Delaware Financing Statement is in proper form for filing in the Delaware
Filing Office. Upon the effective filing of the Delaware Financing Statement with the Delaware Filing Office, the Secured Party will have, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations, a perfected security interest in that portion of the
Delaware Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing an initial financing statement with the Delaware Filing Office under the DE UCC (the “Delaware Filing Collateral”). 

SECTION 13.09. The Security Agreement, together with physical delivery of the certificates representing the shares of stock identified on
Exhibit G to the Security Agreement (the “Pledged Securities”) to the Secured Party, creates in favor of the Secured Party, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations, as security for the Secured Obligations, a
perfected security interest under the NY UCC in the Company’s rights in the Pledged Securities while the Pledged Securities are located in the State of New York or the State of Ohio and remain in the possession of the Secured Party. Assuming
the Secured Party and each of the Holders of Secured Obligations so acquires its security interest in the Pledged Securities, by delivery thereof in the State of New York, without “notice of any adverse claims” (all within the meaning of
the NY UCC) and that each Pledged Security is either in bearer form or in registered form, registered in the name of, or effectively indorsed to, the Secured Party as such or effectively indorsed in blank, the Secured Party will acquire its security
interest in the Pledged Securities free of adverse claims (within the meaning of the NY UCC). 
 SECTION 13.10. The borrowings by
the Company under the Financing Agreement and the application of the proceeds thereof as provided in the Financing Agreement will not violate Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 

 SECTION 13.11. None of the Company, MBI, MLAC or MAMTS is required to register as an
“investment company” (under, and as defined in, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)) and none of the Company, MBI, MLAC or MAMTS is a company controlled by a company required to register as
such under the 1940 Act. 
 The opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications and limitations: 

(a) Our opinions in paragraph (d) above are subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent
transfer and conveyance, voidable preference, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship, arrangement or similar laws, and related regulations and judicial doctrines, from time to time in effect affecting creditors’ rights and remedies
generally, (ii) general principles of equity (including, without limitation, standards of materiality, good faith, fair dealing and reasonableness, equitable defenses, the exercise of judicial discretion and limits on the availability of
equitable remedies), whether such principles are considered in a proceeding at law or in equity, and (iii) the qualification that certain other provisions of the Documents may be unenforceable in whole or in part under the laws (including
judicial decisions) of the State of New York or the United States of America, but the inclusion of such provisions does not affect the validity as against the Transaction Parties party thereto of the Documents as a whole and the Documents contain
adequate provisions for the practical realization of the principal benefits provided by the Documents, in each case subject to the other qualifications contained in this letter. 

(b) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provision in the Documents: 

(i) providing that any person or entity may sell or otherwise dispose of, or purchase, any collateral subject thereto, or
enforce any other right or remedy thereunder (including without limitation any self-help or taking-possession remedy), except in compliance with the NY UCC and other applicable laws; 

(ii) establishing standards for the performance of the obligations of good faith, diligence, reasonableness and care
prescribed by the NY UCC or of any of the rights or duties referred to in Section 9-603 of the NY UCC; 

(iii) relating to indemnification, contribution or exculpation in connection with violations of any securities laws or
statutory duties or public policy, or in connection with willful, reckless or unlawful acts or gross negligence of the indemnified or exculpated party or the party receiving contribution; 

(iv) providing that any person or entity may exercise set-off rights other than in accordance with and pursuant to
applicable law; 
 (v) relating to choice of governing law to the extent that the enforceability of any such
provision is to be determined by any court other than a court of the State of New York or may be subject to constitutional limitations; 
 (vi) purporting to confer, or constituting an agreement with respect to, subject matter jurisdiction of United States federal courts to adjudicate any matter; 

(vii) purporting to create a trust or other fiduciary relationship; 

(viii) specifying that provisions thereof may be waived only in writing, to the extent that an oral agreement or an
implied agreement by trade practice or course of conduct has been created that modifies any provision of such Documents; 
 (ix) giving any person or entity the power to accelerate obligations or to foreclose upon collateral without any notice to the obligor; 

(x) providing for the performance by any guarantor of any of the nonmonetary obligations of any person or entity not
controlled by such guarantor; 
 (xi) providing for restraints on alienation of property and purporting to render
transfers of such property void and of no effect or prohibiting or restricting the assignment or transfer of property or rights to the extent that any such prohibition or restriction is ineffective pursuant to Sections 9-406 through 9-409 of the NY
UCC; 

 (xii) securing obligations and indebtedness of parties other than the
Transaction Parties without specifically identifying such other parties and such obligations and indebtedness; 

(xiii) providing for the payment of attorneys’ fees; 

(xiv) providing for a confession of judgment; 

(xv) granting any party a power of attorney to act on behalf of any Transaction Party; 

(xvi) waiving or affecting any right of the Transaction Parties to receive notices; 

(xvii) waiving any statute of limitations; 

(xviii) restricting the Transaction Parties from access to legal or equitable remedies; 

(xix) requiring payment of a prepayment premium, including yield maintenance charges, or late charge to the extent such
prepayment premium or late charge may be characterized as a penalty; or 
 (xx) that (a) releases any party
from liability for future acts or omissions, (b) purports to secure future obligations which are unrelated to the obligations under the Loan Documents or (c) purports to allow the Agent or the Holders of Secured Obligations to
simultaneously maintain or prosecute actions to enforce or collect the obligations under any of the Documents. 
 (c) Our
opinions as to enforceability are subject to the effect of generally applicable rules of law that: 
 (i) provide
that forum selection clauses in contracts are not necessarily binding on the court(s) in the forum selected; and 

(ii) may, where less than all of a contract may be unenforceable, limit the enforceability of the balance of the contract
to circumstances in which the unenforceable portion is not an essential part of the agreed exchange, or that permit a court to reserve to itself a decision as to whether any provision of any agreement is severable. 

(d) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any purported waiver, release, variation, disclaimer, consent or other agreement to
similar effect (all of the foregoing, collectively, a “Waiver”) by any Transaction Party under any of the Documents to the extent limited by Sections 1-102(3), 1-102(4), 9-602 or 9-624 of the NY UCC or other provisions of
applicable law (including judicial decisions), or to the extent that such a Waiver applies to a right, claim, duty or defense or a ground for, or a circumstance that would operate as, a discharge or release otherwise existing or occurring as a
matter of law (including judicial decisions), except to the extent that such a Waiver is effective under and is not prohibited by or void or invalid under Section 9-602 or 9-624 of the NY UCC or other provisions of applicable law (including
judicial decisions). 
 (e) Our opinions in paragraphs (e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) above are subject to the following
assumptions, qualifications and limitations: 
 (i) Any security interest in the proceeds of collateral is
subject in all respects to the limitations set forth in Section 9-315 of the UCC. 
 (ii) We express no
opinion as to the nature or extent of the rights, or the power to transfer rights, of any Transaction Party in, or title of any Transaction Party to, any collateral under any of the Documents, or property purporting to constitute such collateral, or
the value, validity or effectiveness for any purpose of any such collateral or purported collateral, and we have assumed that each Transaction Party has sufficient rights in, or power to transfer rights in, all such collateral or purported
collateral for the security interests provided for under the Documents to attach. 
 (iii) Other than as
expressly noted in paragraph (i) above, we express no opinion as to the priority of any pledge, security interest, assignment for security, lien or other encumbrance, as the case may be, that may be created or purported to be created under the
Documents. Other than as expressly noted in paragraphs (f), (g), (h) and (i) above, we express no opinion as to the perfection of, and other than as expressly noted in paragraphs (e) and (i) above, we express no opinion as to the
creation, validity or enforceability of, any pledge, security interest, assignment for security, lien or other encumbrance, as the case may be, that may be created or 

 
purported to be created under the Documents. We express no opinion as to the creation, validity or enforceability of any pledge, security interest, assignment for security, lien or other
encumbrance, as the case may be, that may be created or purported to be created under the Documents in any commercial tort claims, other than those listed on Exhibit J to the Security Agreement (the “Existing Commercial Tort
Claims”). 
 (iv) We have assumed that the Existing Commercial Tort Claims constitute commercial tort
claims within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the UCC. 
 (v) In the case of property that becomes
collateral under the Documents after the date hereof, Section 552 of the United States Bankruptcy Code limits the extent to which property acquired by a debtor after the commencement of a case under the United States Bankruptcy Code may be
subject to a lien arising from a security agreement entered into by the debtor before the commencement of such case. 
 (vi) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of the security interests under the Documents in any item of collateral subject to any restriction on or prohibition against transfer contained in or
otherwise applicable to such item of collateral or any contract, agreement, license, permit, security, instrument or document constituting, evidencing or relating to such item, except to the extent that any such restriction is rendered ineffective
pursuant to any of Sections 9-406 through 9-409, inclusive, of the UCC. 
 (vii) We call to your attention that
Article 9 of the UCC requires the filing of continuation statements within the period of six months prior to the expiration of five years from the date of original filing of financing statements under the UCC in order to maintain the effectiveness
of such financing statements and that additional financing statements may be required to be filed to maintain the perfection of security interests if the debtor granting such security interests makes certain changes to its name, or changes its
location (including through a change in its jurisdiction of organization) or the location of certain types of collateral, all as provided in the UCC. 
 (viii) We call to your attention that an obligor (as defined in the UCC) other than a debtor may have rights under Part 6 of Article 9 of the UCC. 

(ix) With respect to our opinions above as to the perfection of a security interest in the Article 9 Collateral
through the filing of a financing statement, we express no opinion with respect to the perfection of any such security interest in any Article 9 Collateral constituting intellectual property, timber to be cut, as extracted collateral, cooperative
interests, agricultural liens or other property described in Section 9-311(a) of the UCC (including, without limitation, property subject to a certificate of title statute), or with respect to perfection of a security interest in deposit
accounts and letter of credit rights, and we express no opinion with respect to the effectiveness of any financing statement filed or purported to be filed as a fixture filing. 

(x) We express no opinion as to the effectiveness of the defined term “Other Collateral” as used in the Security
Agreement for purposes of Section 9-203 of the NY UCC. 
 (xi) We express no opinion as to the
existence of any liens, restrictions, easements or encumbrances on any of the personal property, improvements or other collateral purported to be covered by the Documents. 

(xii) We have assumed that each Transaction Party (other than MNR and MAMTS Netherlands) is organized solely under the
laws of the state identified as such Transaction Party’s jurisdiction of organization in the Certified Organizational Document of and Official Status Certificate for such Transaction Party. 

(xiii) We have assumed that the information pertaining to the Secured Party in the Ohio Financing Statements, the New York
Financing Statement and the Delaware Financing Statement is complete and correct in all respects. 
 (xiv) We
have assumed that the Transaction Parties (other than MNR and MAMTS Netherlands) are the owners of the Article 9 Collateral and that such property actually exists. 

(xv) We express no opinion with respect to the priority of the security interest of the Secured Party in the Pledged
Securities against any of the following: (a) any claims or liens that arise by operation of law and any other claims or liens not created under the UCC or (b) any claim or lien in favor of the United States of America or any state or other
political subdivision thereof or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing. 

 (f) We have assumed that each Transaction Party’s obligations under the Documents are,
and would be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be, in furtherance of its corporate purposes and necessary or convenient to the conduct, promotion or attainment of such Transaction Party’s business. We also have assumed that each
Transaction Party will perform its obligations in compliance with applicable law and will obtain, in the ordinary course, such licenses and permits as then may be required. 
 (g) To the extent it may be relevant to the opinions expressed herein, we have assumed that the parties to the Documents (other than the Transaction Parties) have the power to enter into and perform such
Documents and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, that such parties have complied with all federal and state laws and regulations applicable to them, and that such Documents have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of, such parties. With respect to each of MNR and MAMTS Netherlands, we have assumed that (i) it is a corporation validly existing and in good standing in its jurisdiction of incorporation, has
all requisite power and authority, and has obtained all requisite corporate, shareholder, third party and governmental authorizations, consents and approvals, and has complied with all federal and state laws and regulations applicable to it and made
all requisite filings and registrations, necessary to execute, deliver and perform the Documents to which it is a party and to grant the security interests and guaranties contemplated thereby, and that such execution, delivery, performance and grant
will not violate or conflict with any law, rule, regulation, order, decree, judgment, instrument or agreement binding upon or applicable to it or its properties, and (ii) the Documents to which it is a party have been duly executed and
delivered by it, and each such Document constitutes a valid and binding obligation of MNR or MAMTS Netherlands, as applicable, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. For purposes of our opinion, we have assumed that the Agent and each
Lender has obtained all requisite third party and governmental authorizations, consents and approvals, and made all requisite filings and registrations, necessary to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Documents to which it is a
party and that such execution, delivery or performance will not violate or conflict with any law, rule, regulation, order, decree, judgment, instrument or agreement binding upon or applicable to it or its properties. 

(h) For purposes of the opinions set forth in paragraph (j) above, we have assumed that (i) neither the Agent nor any of the
Lenders has or will have the benefit of any agreement or arrangement (excluding the Documents) pursuant to which any extensions of credit are directly or indirectly secured by margin stock, (ii) neither the Agent nor any of the Lenders nor any
of their respective affiliates has extended or will extend any other credit to any Transaction Party directly or indirectly secured by margin stock, and (iii) neither the Agent nor any of the Lenders has relied or will rely upon any margin
stock as collateral in extending or maintaining any extensions of credit pursuant to the Financing Agreement. 
 (i) The opinions
expressed herein are limited to (i) the federal laws of the United States of America and the laws of the State of New York, (ii) to the extent relevant to the opinions expressed in paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) above with
respect to the Company and MBI, the General Corporation Law of the State of Ohio as currently in effect on the date hereof and (iii) to the extent relevant to the opinions expressed in paragraph (f) above, the OH UCC. Our opinions in
paragraphs (e) and (g) above are limited to Article 9 of the NY UCC, our opinions in paragraph (h) above are limited to Article 9 of the DE UCC, our opinions in paragraph (i) above are limited to Articles 8 and 9 of the NY
UCC and the OH UCC, and our opinions in paragraph (f) above are limited to Article 9 of the OH UCC, and therefore, those opinion paragraphs do not address (i) laws of jurisdictions other than New York, Ohio and Delaware, and laws of
New York, Ohio and Delaware except for Articles 8 and 9 of the NY UCC, Article 9 of the OH UCC and Article 9 of the DE UCC, (ii) collateral of a type not subject to Article 8 and/or 9 of the NY UCC, Article 9 of the OH UCC, and
Article 9 of the DE UCC, and (iii) under the choice of law rules of the NY UCC, OH UCC and the DE UCC with respect to the law governing perfection and priority of security interests, what law governs perfection and/or priority of the
security interests granted in the collateral covered by this opinion letter. Without limitation, we express no opinion as to federal or state environmental, securities, pension or benefit, labor, antitrust or unfair competition laws; the statutes,
ordinances, administrative decisions, rules, regulations or requirements of any county, municipality, subdivision or local authority of any jurisdiction; or federal or state tax laws, including, without limitation, franchise, income or transfer
taxes. 
 (j) Our opinions as to any matters governed by the NY UCC are based solely upon our review of the NY UCC as published
by the State of New York on its website at http://public.leginfo.state.ny.us/, without any review or consideration of any decisions or opinions of courts or other adjudicative bodies or governmental authorities of the State of New York, whether or
not reported or summarized in the foregoing publication. 

 (k) Our opinions are limited to those expressly set forth herein, and we express no opinions
by implication. This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof and we have no responsibility or obligation to update this opinion letter, to consider its applicability or correctness to any person or entity other than its addressees, or to
take into account changes in law, facts or any other developments of which we may later become aware. 
 (l) We express no
opinion as to the compliance or noncompliance, or the effect of the compliance or noncompliance, of each of the addressees or any other person or entity with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to each of them by reason of their
status as or affiliation with a federally insured depository institution. 
 (m) The opinions expressed herein are solely for the

 Ladies and Gentlemen, 
 Re: Materion Corporation et al. / Amended and Restated Credit Agreement 
  

	1.	Introduction 

  

	1.1	We have acted as Dutch counsel to Materion Advanced Materials Technologies and Services Netherlands B.V. (the “Dutch Borrower”) in connection with the
transactions contemplated by an amended and restated credit agreement, dated as of 13 July 2011 among Materion Corporation, the Dutch Borrower and the other Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers from time to time party thereto as Borrowers, the Lenders
from time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent and Bank of America, N.A., Keybank National Association and Wells Fargo, National Association, as Co-Syndication Agents (the “Credit Agreement”), for
the purpose of amending and restating the existing credit agreement dated as of November 7, 2007 (the “Existing Credit Agreement”). 

  

	1.2	This opinion letter is rendered to you in accordance with Section 4.01(b)(ii) of the Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein shall, unless otherwise
defined, have the respective meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement. The section headings used in this opinion letter are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or to be taken into consideration in the
interpretation hereof. 

  

	1.3	In rendering the opinions and statements expressed herein, we have exclusively reviewed and relied upon the documents set forth and defined in paragraph 6 and we have
assumed that the Credit Agreement and all other documents have been or will be entered into for bona fide commercial reasons. We have not investigated or verified any factual matter disclosed to us in the course of our review. 

  

	1.4	This opinion letter sets out our opinion on certain matters of Netherlands Law as at today’s date and the opinions and statements expressed in this opinion letter
are limited in all respects to and are to be construed and interpreted in accordance with Netherlands Law. Unless otherwise specifically stated herein, we do not express any opinion on representations and warranties, on public international law or
on the rules promulgated under or by any treaty or treaty organisation, except insofar as such rules are directly applicable in the Netherlands. We do not express any opinion on Netherlands or European competition law 

 
 Rabobank 12.17.34.404, bank account name: Stichting beheer derdengelden

or tax law. No undertaking is assumed on our part to revise, update or amend this opinion letter in connection with or to notify or inform you of, any developments and/or changes under
Netherlands Law subsequent to today’s date. 

  

	1.5	In this opinion letter, legal concepts are expressed in English terms. The Netherlands legal concepts concerned may not be identical in meaning to the concepts
described by the English terms as they exist under the law of other jurisdictions. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency, the relevant expression shall be deemed to refer only to the Netherlands legal concepts described by the English terms.
 

  

	2.	Assumptions  

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

	2.1	All documents reviewed by us as originals are complete and authentic and the signatures thereon are the genuine signatures of the persons purporting to have signed the
same, and all documents reviewed by us as fax, photo- or electronic copy of originals are in conformity with the executed originals thereof and such originals are complete and authentic and the signatures thereon genuine. All documents reviewed by
us as drafts which will be executed on or about the date hereof will be executed in conformity with such drafts. 

  

	2.2	Each of the parties to the Credit Agreement, the Deed and the Confirmation Agreement (both as defined below), other than the Dutch Borrower, has been duly incorporated
and is validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction. 

  

	2.3	At the moment of execution of the deed of pledge on shares in the capital of the Dutch Borrower (the “Deed”) by all persons named as a signatory
therein, including without limitation by any signatory for acknowledgement of notification, (i) the Pledgor as defined therein was the owner (‘eigenaar’) or proprietor (‘rechthebbende’), as the case may be, and
had full power to dispose (‘beschikkingsbevoegd’) of the Present Shares and other existing Collateral as defined therein, and (ii) such Present Shares and other existing Collateral were not encumbered by any limited rights
(‘beperkte rechten’), attachments (‘beslagen’) or other similar encumbrances. 

  

	2.4	The Pledgor as defined in the Deed shall be the owner (‘eigenaar’) or proprietor (‘rechthebbende’), as the case may be of any shares
in the capital of the Dutch Borrower to be issued in the future (and of any rights pertaining to such future shares) and shall have full power to dispose of (‘beschikkingsbevoegd’) and shall be validly obligated to pledge such
future shares and rights. We have further assumed that the Pledgor shall at such time not have been declared bankrupt (‘faillissement’), granted a (preliminary) suspension of payments (‘(voorlopige) surséance
van betaling’) or otherwise be limited in its right to dispose of its assets, and that such future shares and rights shall not be encumbered by any limited rights (‘beperkte rechten’), attachments
(‘beslagen’) or other similar encumbrances. 

  

	2.5	To the extent rights governed by Netherlands Law are part of the Collateral in which a security right is purported to be created pursuant to the Deed, such rights are
assignable (‘voor overdracht vatbaar’) within the meaning of Article 3:228 of the Netherlands Civil Code (“NCC”). 

  

	2.6	The Parallel Debt as defined in article 2 of the Deed is sufficiently identifiable (‘voldoende bepaalbaar’) within the meaning of Article 3:231(2) NCC.

  

	2.7	The information in the Shareholders Register is true, complete and correct in all respects. 

 

	2.8	The Resolutions are and remain in full force and effect. 

  

	2.9	 The Credit Agreement and the confirmation agreement among Materion Advanced Materials Technologies and Services Inc. as Pledgor, the Administrative
Agent as Pledgee and the Dutch Borrower as the Company dated as of 13 July 2011 (the “Confirmation Agreement”, the Credit Agreement and the 

 

 
  

	 	
Confirmation Agreement herinafter collectively the “Agreements”) are within the power of and have been duly authorised by and signed on behalf of all parties thereto other than
the Dutch Borrower. 

  

	2.10	The Deed is within the power of and has been duly authorised by and signed on behalf of all parties thereto other than the Dutch Borrower. 

 

	2.11	The Agreements constitute under any applicable law other than Netherlands Law, the legal, valid and binding obligations of all parties thereto, enforceable in
accordance with its respective terms. 

  

	2.12	The choice of law clause contained in the Credit Agreement constitutes under any applicable law, other than Netherlands Law, a legal, valid and binding choice of law
for the laws of the State of New York. 

  

	2.13	The Deed of Incorporation constitutes a valid notarial deed. There are no defects in the incorporation (not appearing on the face of the Deed of Incorporation) on the
basis of which a court might dissolve the Dutch Borrower.  

  

	3.	Opinion  

 Based upon and
subject to the foregoing and subject to the qualifications listed below and to any factual matters, documents or events not disclosed to us in the course of our examination which, if disclosed, would shed a different light on the information in the
documents listed in paragraph 6 (including, in connection with the Confirmation Agreement, force (bedreiging), fraud (bedrog), undue influence (misbruik van omstandigheden) or a mistake (dwaling)), we are at the date
hereof of the following opinion: 
  

	3.1	The Dutch Borrower has been duly and properly incorporated and is validly existing under Netherlands Law as a legal entity in the form of a private company with limited
liability (‘besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid’). 

  

	3.2	The Dutch Borrower has the corporate power and authority and legal right and has taken all corporate action as required by its articles of association
(‘statuten’) and by Netherlands Law to execute and deliver the Agreements and to perform its obligations thereunder. 

  

	3.3	The Agreements have been duly executed by the Dutch Borrower. 

  

	3.4	The Deed constitutes a valid right of pledge (‘pandrecht’) on the Collateral as defined therein, in favor of the Pledgee as defined therein, which
right of pledge will be enforceable in the Netherlands in accordance with its terms. The validity and enforceability of the right of pledge created under the Deed will not be affected by reason only of the implementation of the amendments to the
Existing Credit Agreement as a consequence of the execution of the Credit Agreement. 

  

	3.5	The contractual obligations of the Dutch Borrower under the Agreements are enforceable against it in the Netherlands, provided that the remedy of specific performance
of obligations may not always and in all circumstances be available in the Netherlands. 

  

	3.6	To the extent the Agreements provide for any contractual obligations of the Dutch Borrower as defined therein, such obligations will be the legal, valid and binding
obligations of such Dutch Borrower, enforceable in the Netherlands in accordance with their respective terms and the applicable provisions of Netherlands Law, provided that the remedy of specific performance of obligations may not always and in all
circumstances be available in the Netherlands. 

  

	3.7	Entering into the Agreements by the Dutch Borrower and the performance by the Dutch Borrower of its obligations thereunder does not and will not violate the Dutch
Borrower’s present articles of association (‘statuten’) and does not in itself violate Netherlands Law. 

  

	3.8	The choice of the law of the State of New York as the law governing the Credit Agreement is valid and binding under Netherlands Law. 

 

 
  
  

	3.9	A final and binding court decision by the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern
District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, which is enforceable in the United States of America as provided for in the Credit Agreement will be recognised and given effect by the Netherlands courts. 

 

	3.10	No authorization, consents or approvals and no licenses or orders from or notices to or filings with any regulatory or other authority, governmental body of the
Netherlands or the Netherlands courts are required to ensure the validity and enforceability of the Agreements, or their admissibility in evidence in the Netherlands courts. 

 

	4.	Qualifications  

 The
opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications: 
  

	4.1	The information with respect to the Dutch Borrower contained in the Extracts (as defined below) and our inquiries of today over the telephone with the District Court in
Amsterdam (the Netherlands) support but do not constitute conclusive evidence of the corporate status, the solvency or other matters reflected in them relating to the Dutch Borrower. In particular, no conclusive evidence can be obtained that the
Dutch Borrower has not (i) been dissolved (ontbonden), (ii) ceased to exist pursuant to a merger (‘fusie’) or a demerger (‘splitsing’), (iii) had its assets placed under administration
(‘onder bewind gesteld’), or (iv) been declared bankrupt (‘failliet verklaard’), been granted a (preliminary) suspension of payments (‘(voorlopige) surséance van betaling verleend’) or
(v) been made subject to similar insolvency proceedings in other jurisdictions. 

  

	4.2	The opinions expressed herein may be effected or limited by the provisions of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganisation, moratorium or other similar laws or
procedures now or hereinafter in effect, relating to or affecting the enforcement or protection of creditors rights, except that the enforcement of a right of pledge created by the Deed will not be affected by a bankruptcy
(‘faillissement’) or suspension of payments (‘surséance van betaling’) of the Dutch Borrower under the Dutch Bankruptcy Act (‘Faillissementswet’), subject, however, to the immediately
following sentence. Enforcement of rights against a party (such as the Dutch Borrower) which has been declared bankrupt (‘in staat van faillissement verklaard’), or is granted a (preliminary) suspension of payments
(‘(voorlopige) surséance van betaling verleend’), may be suspended by a court for a period not exceeding four months. 

  

	4.3	Under Netherlands Law, a legal act (‘rechtshandeling’) performed by a person or entity may be nullified by (i) any of its creditors, or
(ii) its bankruptcy trustee (‘curator’), if (a) it performed the act without an obligation to do so (‘onverplicht’), (b) the creditor concerned or (in the case of a bankruptcy) any creditor was
prejudiced as a consequence of the act, and (c) at the time the act was performed both the person or entity and (unless the act was for no consideration (‘om niet’)) the party with or towards which it acted, knew or should have
known that one or more of its creditors (present or future) would be prejudiced. In the case of a legal entity’s bankruptcy, its bankruptcy trustee may nullify its performance of any due and payable obligation (‘opeisbare
schuld’), if (d) the recipient of such performance knew that a petition for bankruptcy had been filed, or (e) the performance of the obligation resulted from consultation between it and the recipient with the intent to give
preference to the latter over the legal entity’s other creditors. 

  

	4.4	Under Netherlands Law, notwithstanding the recognition of the laws of the State of New York as the governing law of the Credit Agreement: 

 

	 	•	 	 A Netherlands court may give effect to mandatory rules of the laws of another jurisdiction (including its own) with which the situation has a close
connection, if and insofar as, under the laws of that other jurisdiction those rules must be applied whatever the chosen law; 

 

 
  
  

	 	•	 	 The application of the laws of the State of New York may be refused if it is manifestly incompatible with the public policy of the Netherlands
(‘ordre public’); 

  

	 	•	 	 Regard will be had to the law of the jurisdiction in which performance takes place in relation to the manner of performance and the steps to be taken
in the event of defective performance. 

 Unless otherwise stated in this opinion letter and on the face of the
Credit Agreement, we have no reason to believe that (i) the Credit Agreement will give rise to situations where mandatory rules of Netherlands law will prevail over the chosen law of the Credit Agreement, or (ii) a provision of the Credit
Agreement will be deemed manifestly incompatible with the public policy of the Netherlands. 
  

	4.5	Under Netherlands Law, when applying Netherlands Law as the law governing the Confirmation Agreement: 

 

	 	•	 	 effect may be given to the law of another jurisdiction with which the situation has a close connection, if and insofar as, under the laws of that other
jurisdiction those rules must be applied whatever the chosen law; 

  

	 	•	 	 Regard will be had to the law of the jurisdiction in which performance takes place in relation to the manner of performance and the steps to be taken
in the event of defective performance. 

  

	4.6	The binding effect and enforceability of the Confirmation Agreement may be affected by rules of Netherlands Law which generally apply to contractual arrangements like
the Confirmation Agreement, including (without limitation) the requirements of reasonableness and fairness (‘redelijkheid en billijkheid’) and rules relating to force majeure. 

 

	4.7	Pursuant to Article 7 of Book 2 of the Netherlands Civil Code, any transactions entered into by legal entities (such as the Dutch Borrower) may be nullified by the
legal entity itself or its bankruptcy trustee if the objects of such entity were transgressed thereby and the other party to the transaction knew or should have known this without independent investigation (‘wist of zonder onderzoek behoorde
te weten’). The Netherlands Supreme Court has ruled that in determining whether the objects of a legal entity are transgressed, not only the description of such objects in the articles of association (‘statuten’) is
decisive, but all (relevant) circumstances must be taken into account, in particular whether the interests of the legal entity were served by the transaction. On the face of the Agreements, we have no reason to believe that entering into the
Agreements by the Dutch Borrower would be a violation of its objects clause as contained in its articles of association, and therefore, be considered ultra vires. However, we cannot assess whether there are other relevant circumstances that
must be taken into account, in particular whether the interests of the Dutch Borrower are served by entering into the Agreements. Most authoritative legal writers, however, take the view that the acts of a legal entity should be both (a) within
the objects clause as contained in the articles of association of such legal entity, or considered secondary thereto (‘secundaire handeling’), and (b) in the actual interests of such legal entity in the sense that such acts
must be conducive to the realisation of the objects of such legal entity as laid down in its articles of association. 

  

	4.8	To the extent Netherlands Law is applicable, any provision in the Agreements to the effect that such agreements or any of the provisions thereof shall be binding on the
assigns or successors of any party thereto will not be enforceable in the absence of an agreement to that effect with any such assign or successor. 

  

	4.9	 In order to obtain a judgment that can be enforced in the Netherlands against the Dutch Borrower, the dispute will have to be re-litigated before the
competent Netherlands Court. This court will have discretion to attach such weight to the judgment of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York,
and any appellate court from any thereof, as it deems appropriate. Given the submission by the Dutch Borrower to the (non-exclusive) jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of

 

 
  

	 	
the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York in the Credit Agreement, the Netherlands Courts can be expected to give conclusive effect to a final and enforceable judgment
of such courts without re-examination or re-litigation of the substantive matters adjudicated upon. This would require (i) proper service of process to have been given, (ii) the proceedings before such court to have complied with
principles of proper procedure (‘behoorlijke rechtspleging’), and (iii) such judgment not being contrary to the public policy of the Netherlands. 

 

	4.10	In accordance with Netherlands Law, a power of attorney can only be made irrevocable to the extent its object is the performance of legal acts
(‘rechtshandelingen’) in the interest of the representative appointed thereby or of a third party. On the face of the Agreements we have no reason to believe that the objects of any of the powers of attorney contained therein are
not in the interests of such representatives or third parties. The competent Netherlands court may at the request of the principal cancel the irrevocable power of attorney or mandate granted by the Dutch Borrower, including but not limited to the
appointment of an agent for service of process (to the extent that it can be considered a power of attorney).  

  

	4.11	A power of attorney or mandate granted by the Dutch Borrower, including but not limited to the appointment of an agent for service of process (to the extent that it can
be considered a power of attorney) will terminate upon the bankruptcy or become ineffective upon the suspension of payments of the Dutch Borrower. 

  

	4.12	The enforcement in a Netherlands court of the Agreements and of foreign judgments is subject to Netherlands Law and to the rules of civil procedure as applied by
Netherlands courts.

	General Terms and Conditions BarentsKrans	  	 	June 2006	  

 

 I BarentsKrans N.V. (“BarentsKrans”) is a public limited company (naamloze vennootschap).
Next to the name mentioned in the articles of association, the public limited company uses BarentsKrans as its trade name. 
 II 1. A
professional services agreement will only be concluded after BarentsKrans has accepted the client’s instructions. For the purposes of concluding a professional services agreement, BarentsKrans can be represented only by its attorneys at law and
(junior) civil law notaries and by personnel holding written authorization. 
 2. Instructions will be accepted and handled by
BarentsKrans only, even if it is a client’s explicit or implicit intention to have his instructions handled by a particular person. 
 3. BarentsKrans will confer with the client as far as possible before engaging any third parties. BarentsKrans does not accept any liability for any shortcomings on the part of such third parties.

 III Sections 404 and 407 (2) of Book 7 of the Netherlands Civil Code are not applicable. 

IV 1. BarentsKrans’ liability to clients and third parties for any damages arising from or relating to the performance of a services agreement
is limited to the amount paid out in the case in question under the professional liability insurance policy/policies taken out by BarentsKrans, plus the deductible which under the policy conditions will not be borne by the insurers. Information
about our professional liability insurance will be sent upon request. 
 2. If and to the extent that no payment is made under
the policy/policies referred to, for any reason whatsoever, BarentsKrans liability is limited to the amount of the fee charged by BarentsKrans for the work in question, subject to a maximum of

 
€ 100,000, and a maximum of € 50,000 for its liability to third parties. 
 3. The limitation of liability also applies if BarentsKrans is liable for the errors made by third parties engaged by BarentsKrans or if the equipment, software, data files, registers or any other items
(none excluded) used by BarentsKrans for the purposes of performing the services agreement do not function properly. 
 4. The
client authorizes BarentsKrans to accept – on the client’s behalf – any limitations of liability of third parties. 
 V The
client will hold BarentsKrans harmless against any and all claims made by third parties and the costs of legal assistance, pertaining in any way to the services provided for the client. 
 VI 1. The client is required to pay a fee, plus out-of-pocket expenses, office expenses (a percentage of the fee charged) and VAT, for the performance of a services agreement. 

2. If the performance of a services agreement covers a period of more than one month, interim invoices may be billed for the services
rendered. 
 3. BarentsKrans is entitled at any time to request the client to pay a deposit. Any deposits received will be set
off against the final invoice. 
 4. BarentsKrans is entitled as per January 1 of each year to alter its fee in proportion
to the time billed according to the hourly rates fixed by BarentsKrans. 
 VII 1. Amounts billed by BarentsKrans must be paid within 14
days of the billing date. If the period allowed for payment is exceeded, the client will be in default by operation of law and will be liable to pay default interest at a rate equal to the current statutory interest rate.

from a defaulting client, the costs incurred on that account will be payable by the client, subject to a minimum of 10% of the outstanding bill. 

3. The client is not entitled to defer payment or to set off any amounts. 
 VIII 1. These General Terms and Conditions are stipulated also on behalf of those who work for the public limited company or have done so in the past. 

2. Any and all agreements between the client and BarentsKrans are governed by the laws of The Netherlands. 

3. Disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts in the district of The Hague, The Netherlands.
BarentsKrans is also entitled to submit disputes to the competent courts in the client’s place of residence. 
 4. These
General Terms and Conditions are available in English and Dutch. If there is any discrepancy between the English text and the Dutch text, the latter shall be binding. 
 5. BarentsKrans is entitled to amend these General Terms and Conditions at any point in time. The most recent version of the General Terms and Conditions is accessible via BarentsKrans’ website

 IX Unless otherwise agreed in writing before a services agreement is concluded, these General Terms and
Conditions govern all professional services agreements.
