Company hereby employs Executive, and Executive hereby accepts employment with the Company in the capacity of Executive Vice President of Gaming Operations. Executive shall be a full-time employee of the Company and shall dedicate all of
Executive’s working time to the Company. During the Term of this Agreement, Executive shall have no other employment and no other business ventures, activities or relationships without first obtaining express written authorization from the
Company. Such authorization may be granted or denied in the sole discretion of the Company. Executive shall report to the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager, and shall be responsible for all gaming operations (table games and race book) and

with Executive’s position, together with such additional duties, commensurate with Executive’s position, as may be assigned to Executive from time to time by the Company. Executive shall perform his duties and responsibilities at the
Company’s offices in Las Vegas; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to require Executive to travel as necessary to perform Executive’s duties and responsibilities. 
 2. TERM. The term of this Agreement shall be for a period of three (3) years (the “Initial
Term”), beginning on October 15, 2007 (the “Commencement Date”), subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 6 herein. Following the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive one
(1) year periods (each, a “Renewal Term”), unless the Company shall have provided to Executive or the Executive shall have provided to the Company at least one hundred eighty (180) days’ written notice of non-renewal, in
which event this Agreement shall expire at the end of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as applicable. The Initial Term and all Renewal Terms shall be referred to as the “Term” of this Agreement. 

 3. COMPENSATION. 
 (a) Base Salary. In consideration of Executive’s full and faithful satisfaction of Executive’s duties under this
Agreement, the Company agrees to pay to Executive a salary at the rate of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00) per annum (the “Base Salary”), payable in such installments as the Company pays its similarly placed executives, subject
to usual and customary deductions for withholding taxes and similar charges, and customary contributions to health and welfare programs in which Executive is enrolled. The Base Salary may be reviewed in accordance with Executive’s annual
performance evaluation and adjusted at the Company’s sole discretion. 
 (b) Bonus Compensation. Executive shall
be eligible for an annual bonus applicable to Executive’s position. The decision to award a bonus and the amount thereof is in the sole discretion of the Company. Annual bonus payments hereunder shall be paid by the Company on the date such
bonuses are paid to similarly situated executives of the Company. 
 (c) Relocation Expenses. The Company will
reimburse Executive up to $15,000 in reasonable moving expenses incurred by Executive in relocating to Las Vegas, Nevada; provided that Executive must obtain and submit to the Company bids from three moving or relocation businesses and use the
lowest of the three bids. 
 4. BENEFITS. Executive is entitled to all the usual benefits
offered to executives at Executive’s level, including paid vacation in accordance with the Company’s vacation policy, sick time, participation in the Company’s sponsored medical, dental and insurance programs, as well as the ability
to participate in any Company retirement savings plan (the “Benefit Plans”), subject to the limitations imposed by the terms of such plans. To the extent permitted by the terms of each Benefit Plan, Executive shall be eligible to
participate in each Benefit Plan in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plan. The Company agrees to pay Executive’s medical coverage under COBRA to allow Executive to continue Executive’s current group medical plan for up to
one (1) year after the Commencement Date, to the extent such coverage remains available through COBRA. 
 5.
LICENSING REQUIREMENTS. Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, at all times during the Term of this Agreement, Executive shall keep and maintain, in full force and effect, any and all licenses,
permits or work authorizations that may be required by any Federal, State or local government agency (the “License Requirements”), including, but not limited to, any casino gaming regulatory agency having jurisdiction over Executive or the

or unethical conduct, including, but not limited to, fraud, embezzlement or other dishonest behavior in the performance of Executive’s duties; (ii) material breach by Executive of any of the terms of this Agreement; (iii) a
determination by any gaming regulatory authority that Executive is not deemed fit for licensure whether or not such a license is actually needed by Executive to perform Executive’s duties under this Agreement in the jurisdiction

 If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause prior to the end of the Term, Executive shall not
be entitled to any further compensation or benefits other than accrued but unpaid Base Salary and accrued and unused vacation pay through the date of such termination. 
 (b) Good Reason. “Good Reason” shall mean, without Executive’s written consent, a willful and material breach by the
Company of its obligations under this Agreement. Executive shall not terminate Executive’s services hereunder for “Good Reason” unless (i) Executive provides the Company written notice pursuant hereto stating with specificity the
respects in which Executive believes the Company to have breached its obligations under this Section 6 and (ii) within thirty (30) days following the date of such notice the Company shall not have cured such breach. 
 If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by Executive without Good Reason prior to the end of the Term, Executive
shall not be entitled to any further compensation or benefits other than accrued but unpaid Base Salary and accrued and unused vacation pay through the date of such termination. 
 (c) Without Cause or For Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by Executive for
Good Reason during the Term of this Agreement then Executive shall be entitled to receive (i) accrued but unpaid Base Salary and accrued and unused vacation pay through the date of such termination, (ii) continuation of coverage under the
Company’s medical plan until the earlier of the date on which the Executive first becomes eligible for coverage under the group medical and dental plans of a new employer or six (6) months from the date of termination, and (iii) an
amount equal to one (1) year’s Base Salary (at Executive’s then-current rate). The amount determined pursuant to this Paragraph 6(c) shall be paid in a single lump sum within ten (10) business days following the execution of the
general release referred to in Paragraph 6(f). In the event Executive’s employment is terminated, either voluntarily or involuntarily, at the end of the Term as a result of non-renewal by Executive, Executive shall not be entitled to any
severance payment or continuation of medical coverage. 
  

 -3- 

 Executive agrees that in the event this Agreement is terminated by the Company without
Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason, the payments pursuant to this Paragraph 6(c) shall be the sole payment to be made to Executive as a result of said termination. Executive acknowledges that Executive has been advised and expressly agrees
that it is the Company’s policy that payment of annual or other bonuses by the Company is completely a matter of discretion, and Executive agrees that in the event of Executive’s termination by the Company without Cause or by Executive for
Good Reason, Executive has no legal right to the payment of any bonus whatsoever, whether in whole or in part. Aside from the payments set forth in this Paragraph 6(c), the Company shall not be obligated to provide any other payments or benefits to
Executive. 
 (d) Death or Disability. If Executive’s employment is terminated as a result of Executive’s
death or disability preventing the performance of the Executive’s duties with reasonable accommodation for more than ninety (90) continuous days or more than one hundred eighty (180) days in any twelve (12) month period,
Executive, or Executive’s beneficiaries, shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to the sum of (i) accrued but unpaid Base Salary and accrued and unused vacation pay through the date of such termination, and (ii) three
(3) months Base Salary. The amount determined pursuant to this Paragraph 6(d) shall be paid in a single lump sum within ten (10) business days following the first Company payroll date following the execution of the general release referred
to in Paragraph 6(f). 
 (e) Sale or Acquisition of the Company. During the Term, in the event the Company is sold to,
or otherwise acquired by, any entity totally unrelated to the Company, and Executive is offered and accepts comparable employment with the acquiring entity, Executive shall not be entitled to any payments pursuant to Paragraph 6(c). However, the
Company shall pay Executive the payments set forth in Section 6(c) upon any of the following: (i) if the acquiring entity does not extend Executive an offer of comparable employment, (ii) if Executive decides, in his sole discretion,
to not accept employment with the acquiring entity or (iii) if Executive is subsequently terminated by the acquiring entity without cause at any time within six (6) months of the date of sale or acquisition. An Initial Public Offering
(“IPO”) involving the Company and any related entity shall not be considered a “sale or acquisition” within the meaning of this Paragraph. The sale of the Company to, or acquisition of the Company by, any entity related to the
Company shall not entitle Executive to any payments pursuant to Paragraph 6(c) or this Paragraph 6(e). 
 (f) Release.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any payments or benefits provided pursuant to Section 6, including, but not limited to, the payments referred to in Paragraphs 6(c), 6(d), or 6(e), shall be contingent upon
Executive (or Executive’s legal representatives, as applicable) executing a general release agreement (in a form provided by the Company) (the “Release Agreement”) for the release of any and all claims, liabilities, judgments and
expenses (including attorneys’ fees) against the Company, its affiliates, successors and assigns, and officers, directors, agents and employees of each of them. The release shall cover any and all claims arising from Executive’s employment
with the Company (or its successors) or the termination of such employment; provided, that the Release Agreement shall not release any rights or claims that Executive may have for (i) severance payments and benefits pursuant to this
Section 6, or (ii) vested rights or benefits under the Company’s employee benefit plans.

 ARTICLE II 
 AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF 
 THE LETTERS OF CREDIT 
 2.01 The Letters of Credit. Each Issuing Bank agrees, on the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, to issue standby letters of
credit (the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of any Account Party on any Business Day from time to time during the period from the Effective Date to the Expiration Date. From and after the Effective Date, the Existing Letters of
Credit shall be Letters of Credit hereunder. No Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue, and no Account Party will request the issuance of, any Letter of Credit hereunder if either (a) the aggregate Available Amounts of all Letters of
Credit issued by such Issuing Bank would exceed, after giving effect to such issuance, the maximum amount set forth in a letter agreement between such Issuing Bank and the Parent, on behalf of the Account Parties, or (b) any Bank’s Pro
Rata Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit exceeds, immediately before the time of such issuance, an amount equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the total Unused LC Commitment Amounts of the Banks at such time (as such amount
shall be advised by the Administrative Agent to the respective Issuing Bank as contemplated by Section 2.02). Unless all the Banks consent otherwise in writing, no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue, and no Account Party
shall request the issuance of, any Letter of Credit hereunder if the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit exceeds, immediately before the time of such issuance, an amount equal to the total Unused LC Commitment Amounts of the Banks at such time
(as such amount shall be advised by the Administrative Agent to the respective Issuing Bank as contemplated by Section 2.02). No Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue, and no Account Party shall request the issuance of, any
Letter of Credit except within the following limitations: (i) subject to the provisions of Section 2.15, each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in U.S. dollars, (ii) each Letter of Credit shall be payable only
against sight drafts (and not time drafts) and (iii) no Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date (including all rights of the Applicable Account Party or the beneficiary to require renewal) later than one year after the date of issuance
thereof, but a Letter of Credit may by its terms be automatically renewable annually (but not after the Expiration Date) unless the respective Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof of its election not to renew such Letter of Credit (which
such Issuing Bank agrees to do on and subject to the terms of Section 2.02(d)). No Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit which is unsatisfactory in form, substance or beneficiary to such Issuing Bank
in the exercise of its reasonable judgment consistent with its customary practice. No Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue a Letter of Credit in favor of a beneficiary that is a Sanctioned Person or that is organized under the laws of a
Sanctioned Country. Letters of Credit may be issued for the account of any Subsidiary of the Parent that is not an Account Party hereunder, provided that the Parent shall be a joint applicant and account party with respect to any such Letter
of Credit. 
  

 18 

 2.02 Issuance and Renewals and Drawings, Participations and Reimbursement with Respect to Letters of
Credit. 
 (a) Request for Issuance. An Account Party may from time to time request, upon at least three Business Days’
notice (given not later than 11:00 A.M. Charlotte, North Carolina time on the last day permitted therefor), an Issuing Bank issue or renew (other than any automatic renewal thereof) a Letter of Credit by: 
 (i) delivering to such Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, either (x) a written request to such effect or
(y) a request made in electronic form through such Issuing Bank’s remote access system and in accordance with the terms and conditions (including any written agreements between such Issuing Bank and any Account Party) applicable thereto,
in each case specifying the date on which such Letter of Credit is to be issued (which shall be a Business Day), the expiration date thereof, the Available Amount thereof, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and the form thereof, and in
each case with a copy of such request (or, in the case of clause (y) above, a written or electronic summary thereof) to the Administrative Agent; and 
 (ii) in the case of the issuance of a Letter of Credit, delivering to such Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a completed agreement and application with respect to such Letter of Credit as such
Issuing Bank may specify for use in connection with such requested Letter of Credit (a “Letter of Credit Agreement”), together with such other certificates, documents and other papers or information as are specified in such Letter
of Credit Agreement or as may be required pursuant to such Issuing Bank’s customary practices for the issuance of letters of credit (including requirements relating to requests made through such Issuing Bank’s remote access system).

 If the limitation set forth in Section 2.01(b) is satisfied and if the Required Banks have not given notice to the Administrative Agent to
cease issuing or renewing Letters of Credit as contemplated by this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the respective Issuing Bank (in writing or by telephone immediately confirmed in writing) that such Issuing Bank is
authorized to issue or renew, as the case may be, such Letter of Credit. An Issuing Bank shall not issue or renew, as the case may be, any Letter of Credit (other than by the automatic renewal thereof) unless it shall have received notice from the
Administrative Agent that it is authorized to do so as described in the preceding sentence. If such Issuing Bank issues or renews a Letter of Credit, it shall deliver the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as the
Applicable Account Party shall otherwise direct, and shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and furnish a copy thereof to the Administrative Agent. Each Issuing Bank may issue Letters of Credit through any of its branches or
Affiliates (whether domestic or foreign) that issue letters of credit, and each Account Party authorizes and directs each Issuing Bank to select the branch or Affiliate that will issue or process any Letter of Credit. 
 (b) Request for Extension or Increase. An Account Party may from time to time request an Issuing Bank extend the expiration date of an outstanding
Letter of Credit issued for its account or increase (or, with the consent of the beneficiary, decrease) the Available Amount 

  

 19 

 
of or the amount available to be drawn on such Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, either
(i) a written request to such effect or (ii) a request made in electronic form through such Issuing Bank’s remote access system. Such extension or increase shall for all purposes hereunder (including for purposes of
Section 2.02(a)) be treated as though such Account Party had requested issuance of a replacement Letter of Credit (except only that such Issuing Bank may, if it elects, issue a notice of extension or increase in lieu of issuing a new
Letter of Credit in substitution for the outstanding Letter of Credit). 
 (c) Automatic Renewals. If any Letter of Credit shall
provide for the automatic renewal of the expiry date thereof unless the respective Issuing Bank gives notice that such expiry date shall not be renewed, then the respective Issuing Bank shall allow such Letter of Credit to be renewed unless it shall
have received, at least five days prior to the date on which such notice of nonrenewal must be delivered under such Letter of Credit (or such shorter period acceptable to the respective Issuing Bank) (i) notice from the Administrative Agent
that such Issuing Bank is not authorized to renew such Letter of Credit (or Letters of Credit generally), or (ii) notice from any Account Party that it does not want the Issuing Bank to renew such Letter of Credit. An Issuing Bank shall not
allow any Letter of Credit to be automatically renewed if it has received notice from the Administrative Agent, as described in the preceding sentence, that it is not authorized to do so anytime prior to the date five days prior to the date on which
the notice of nonrenewal must be delivered under such Letter of Credit. 
 (d) Limitations on Issuance, Extension, Renewal and
Amendment. As between each Issuing Bank, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Banks, on the other hand, each Issuing Bank shall be justified and fully protected (i) in issuing or renewing a proposed Letter of Credit (other than by the
automatic renewal thereof) if such Issuing Bank has received notice from the Administrative Agent that such Issuing Bank is authorized to issue or renew such Letter of Credit, and (ii) in allowing a Letter of Credit to be automatically renewed
if such Issuing Bank has not received notice from the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.02(c) hereof that it is not authorized to do so at any time prior to the date five days prior to the date on which the notice of
nonrenewal must be delivered under such Letter of Credit, in either case, notwithstanding any subsequent notices to such Issuing Bank, any knowledge of a Default, any knowledge of failure of any condition specified in Article III hereof to be
satisfied, any other knowledge of such Issuing Bank, or any other event, condition or circumstance whatsoever. Each Issuing Bank may amend, modify or supplement Letters of Credit or Letter of Credit Agreements, or waive compliance with any condition
of issuance, renewal or payment, without the consent of, and without liability to, any Agent or any Bank, provided that any such amendment, modification or supplement that extends the expiration date or increases the Available Amount of or
the amount available to be drawn on an outstanding Letter of Credit shall be subject to Section 2.01. With respect to each Letter of Credit that remains outstanding at any time after the Expiration Date and that provides by its terms for
automatic renewal, the respective Issuing Bank shall notify the beneficiary thereof, in accordance with the terms specified for such notice in such Letter of Credit, of such Issuing Bank’s election not to renew such Letter of Credit.

 (e) Letter of Credit Participating Interests. Concurrently with the issuance of each Letter of Credit (and upon the Effective Date,
with respect to each Existing Letter of Credit, and without any further action by any party to this Agreement), the respective Issuing Bank 

  

 20 

 
automatically shall be deemed, irrevocably and unconditionally, to have sold, assigned, transferred and conveyed to each other Bank, and each other Bank
automatically shall be deemed, irrevocably and unconditionally, severally to have purchased, acquired, accepted and assumed from such Issuing Bank, without recourse to, or representation or warranty by, such Issuing Bank, an undivided interest, in a
proportion equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share, in all of such Issuing Bank’s rights and obligations in, to or under such Letter of Credit, the related Letter of Credit Agreement, all reimbursement obligations with respect to such Letter
of Credit, and all collateral, guarantees and other rights from time to time directly or indirectly securing the foregoing (such interest of each Bank being referred to herein as a “Letter of Credit Participating Interest”, it being
understood that the Letter of Credit Participating Interest of such Issuing Bank is the interest not otherwise attributable to the Letter of Credit Participating Interests of the other Banks). Each Bank irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to the
immediately preceding sentence, such agreement being herein referred to as such Bank’s “Letter of Credit Participating Interest Commitment”. Amounts, other than Letter of Credit Advances made by a Bank other than the Issuing
Banks and other than Letter of Credit commissions under Section 2.05(c)(i), payable from time to time under or in connection with a Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Agreement shall be for the sole account of the Issuing Banks. On the
date that any assignee becomes a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.07 hereof, Letter of Credit Participating Interests in all outstanding Letters of Credit held by the Bank from which such assignee acquired its
interest hereunder shall be proportionately reallocated between such assignee and such assignor Bank (and, to the extent such assignor Bank is an Issuing Bank, the assignee Bank shall be deemed to have acquired a Letter of Credit Participating
Interest from such Issuing Bank to such extent). Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, each Bank hereby agrees that its obligation to participate in each Letter of Credit, its obligation to make the payments specified in
Section 2.02(f), and the right of each Issuing Bank to receive such payments in the manner specified therein, are each absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected by any event, condition or circumstance
whatever. The failure of any Bank to make any such payment shall not relieve any other Bank of its funding obligation hereunder on the date due, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to meet its funding obligations
hereunder. 
 (f) Payment by Banks on Account of Unreimbursed Draws. If an Issuing Bank makes a payment under any Letter of Credit and
is not reimbursed in full therefor in accordance with Section 2.03(a), such Issuing Bank may notify the Administrative Agent thereof (which notice may be by telephone), and the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify each Bank
(which notice may be by telephone promptly confirmed in writing) thereof. No later than the Administrative Agent’s close of business on the date such notice is given (if notice is given by 2:00 P.M. Charlotte, North Carolina time) or 10:00 A.M.
Charlotte, North Carolina time the following day (if notice is given after 2:00 P.M. Charlotte, North Carolina time or in the case of any Bank whose Applicable Lending Office is located in Europe), each Bank will pay to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of such Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the unreimbursed portion of such payment by such Issuing Bank. Amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of
such Issuing Bank shall be forthwith transferred, in immediately available funds, to such Issuing Bank. If and to the extent that any Bank fails to make such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank on such date, such
Bank shall pay such amount on demand, together with interest, for such Issuing Bank’s own account, for each day from and including the 

  

 21 

 
date such payment is due from such Bank to such Issuing Bank to but not including the date of repayment to such Issuing Bank (before and after judgment) at a
rate per annum for each day (i) from and including the date such payment is due from such Bank to such Issuing Bank to and including the second Business Day thereafter equal to the Federal Funds Rate and (ii) thereafter equal to the Base
Rate. For avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed by the Banks that Letters of Credit issued prior to the Expiration Date may, by their terms, remain outstanding after the Expiration Date and that the obligations of the Banks to make
payments under this Section 2.02(f) shall continue from and after the Expiration Date until the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, subject to and in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 (g) Letter of Credit Advances. The term “Letter of Credit Advance” is used in this Agreement in accordance with the meanings set
forth in this Section 2.02(g). The making of any payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit is sometimes referred to herein as the making of a Letter of Credit Advance by such Issuing Bank in the amount of such payment. The
making of any payment by a Bank for the account of an Issuing Bank under Section 2.02(f) on account of an unreimbursed drawing on a Letter of Credit is sometimes referred to herein as the making of a Letter of Credit Advance to the
Applicable Account Party by such Bank. The making of such a Letter of Credit Advance by a Bank with respect to an unreimbursed drawing on a Letter of Credit shall reduce, by a like amount, the outstanding Letter of Credit Advance of the Issuing Bank
with respect to such unreimbursed drawing. 
 (h) Letter of Credit Reports. Each Issuing Bank will furnish to the Administrative Agent
prompt written notice of each issuance or renewal of a Letter of Credit (including the Available Amount and expiration date thereof), amendment to a Letter of Credit, cancellation of a Letter of Credit and payment on a Letter of Credit. The
Administrative Agent will furnish (A) to each Bank prior to the fifteenth Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report summarizing issuance, renewal and expiration dates of Letters of Credit issued or renewed during the preceding
calendar quarter and payments and reductions in Available Amount during such calendar quarter on all Letters of Credit and (B) to each Bank prior to the fifteenth Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth the average
daily aggregate Available Amount during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit. 
 2.03 Repayment of Advances.

 (a) Account Parties’ Reimbursement Obligation. 
 (i) Each Account Party hereby agrees to reimburse each Issuing Bank (by making payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.07) in the amount of each payment made by each Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit issued for such Account Party’s account, such reimbursement to be made on the date such payment
under such Letter of Credit is made by the Issuing Bank (but not earlier than one Business Day after notice of the drawing giving rise to such payment under such Letter of Credit is given to such Account Party). Such reimbursement obligation shall
be payable without further notice, protest or demand, all of which are hereby waived, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. To the extent such payment by such Account Party is not timely made as provided in the first sentence of this

  

 22 

 
clause (i), such Account Party hereby agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the respective accounts of each Issuing Bank and the Banks which
have funded their respective shares of such amount remaining unpaid by such Account Party, on demand, interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 2%, for each day from and including the date on which the Applicable Account Party is to
reimburse such Issuing Bank to, but excluding, the date such obligation is paid in full. 
 (ii) The obligation of each
Account Party to reimburse each Issuing Bank for any payment made by each Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, and the obligation of each Bank under Section 2.02(f) with respect thereto, shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and
shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the applicable Letter of Credit Agreement and any other applicable agreement or instrument under all circumstances, including the following circumstances: 
 (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document, any Letter of Credit Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other
agreement or instrument relating thereto (all of the foregoing being, collectively, the “L/C Related Documents”); 
 (B) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of any Account Party or any other Person in respect of any L/C Related Document or any other amendment or waiver of or any
consent to departure from all or any of the L/C Related Documents; 
 (C) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or
other right that any Account Party or any other Person may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Persons for which any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank or any
other Person, whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the L/C Related Documents or any unrelated transaction; 
 (D) any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 
 (E) payment by any Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply
with the terms of such Letter of Credit; 
 (F) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or
amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Guaranty or any other guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of any Account Party or any other Person in respect of the L/C Related Documents; or 
  

 23 

 (G) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Account Party or a guarantor. 
 (b) Rescission. If any amount received by an Issuing Bank on account of any Letter of Credit Advance shall be avoided, rescinded or otherwise returned or paid over by such Issuing Bank for any reason at any
time, whether before or after the termination of this Agreement (or such Issuing Bank believes in good faith that such avoidance, rescission, return or payment is required, whether or not such matter has been adjudicated), each Bank will (except to
the extent a corresponding amount received by such Bank on account of its Letter of Credit Advance relating to the same payment on a Letter of Credit has been avoided, rescinded or otherwise returned or paid over by such Bank), promptly upon notice
from the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, pay over to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share of such amount, together with its Pro Rata Share of any interest or penalties payable with respect
thereto. 
 2.04 Termination or Reduction of the LC Commitment Amounts. The Parent may, upon at least three Business Days’ notice
to the Administrative Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portion of the LC Commitment Amounts; provided, however, that each partial reduction (i) shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) shall be made ratably among the Banks in accordance with their LC Commitment Amounts. 
 2.05 Fees. 
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Account Parties jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of the Banks a commitment fee, from the Effective Date in the case of each Initial Bank and from the effective date specified in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Bank in the case of each other Bank until
the Expiration Date, payable in arrears quarterly on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December commencing December 31, 2007 and on the Expiration Date, at the rate of the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage on the
average daily Unused LC Commitment Amount of each Bank during such quarter (or shorter period); provided, however, that no commitment fee shall accrue on the LC Commitment Amount of a Defaulting Bank so long as such Bank shall be a
Defaulting Bank. 
 (b) Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Account Parties jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative
Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Parent and the Administrative Agent. 
 (c) Letter of
Credit Fees, Etc. 
 (i) The Account Parties jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Bank a commission, payable in 

  

 24 

 
arrears quarterly on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December commencing December 31, 2007, and on the Expiration Date, on such
Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the average daily aggregate Available Amount during such quarter (or shorter period) of all Letters of Credit outstanding from time to time at the rate equal to the then Applicable Margin. 
 (ii) The Account Parties jointly and severally agree to pay (x) to Wachovia, in its capacity as an Issuing Bank and for its own
account, the facing fee referred to the Fee Letter, on the terms set forth therein, and (y) each Issuing Bank’s customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, relating to
letters of credit as are from time to time in effect. With respect to each Existing Letter of Credit, the respective Issuing Bank shall be entitled to receive the fees and other amounts provided for under this Section 2.05(c)(ii) (to the
extent not previously paid to such Issuing Bank pursuant to the Existing Reimbursement Agreement) as if the Existing Letters of Credit were issued hereunder on the Effective Date. 
 2.06 Increased Costs, Etc. 
 (a) If,
due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of, in each case after the date hereof, any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request issued after the date hereof from any
central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Bank of agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in Letters of Credit or the making of
Letter of Credit Advances (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.06, any such increased costs resulting from (x) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.08 shall govern) and (y) changes in the basis of
taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Bank is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the
Account Parties jointly and severally agree to pay, from time to time, within five days after demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), which demand shall include a statement of the basis for such demand and a
calculation in reasonable detail of the amount demanded, to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased
cost, submitted to the Account Parties by such Bank, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (b) If, due
to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation, in each case after the date hereof, or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request issued after the date hereof from any central
bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank as a result of or based
upon the existence of such Bank’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of such type, then, within five days after demand by such Bank or such corporation (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), which demand shall
include a statement of the basis for such demand and a calculation in reasonable detail of the amount demanded, the Account Parties jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for 

  

 25 

 
the account of such Bank, from time to time as specified by such Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank in the light of such
circumstances, to the extent that such Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Bank’s commitment to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder or to the issuance or maintenance of or
participation in any Letters of Credit. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Account Parties by such Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Each Bank shall promptly notify the Account Parties and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has actual knowledge which will result in,
and will use reasonable commercial efforts available to it (and not, in such Bank’s good faith judgment, otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank) to mitigate or avoid any obligation by the Account Parties to pay any amount pursuant to
Section 2.06(a) or 2.06(b) above or pursuant to Section 2.08 (and, if any Bank has given notice of any such event and thereafter such event ceases to exist, such Bank shall promptly so notify the Account Parties and
the Administrative Agent). Without limiting the foregoing, each Bank will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to the Account Parties of) any event described in the preceding sentence and
such designation will not, in such Bank’s good faith judgment, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 2.06(a), 2.06(b) or 2.08 (and without limiting Section 2.06(c) above), if any Bank fails to notify the Account Parties of any event or circumstance that will entitle such Bank to
compensation pursuant to Section 2.06(a), 2.06(b) or 2.08 within 120 days after such Bank obtains actual knowledge of such event or circumstance, then such Bank shall not be entitled to compensation from the Account Parties
for any amount arising prior to the date which is 120 days before the date on which such Bank notifies the Account Parties of such event or circumstance. For avoidance of doubt, it is noted that the term “Bank” as used in this
Section 2.06 and in other Sections of this Agreement includes the Issuing Banks in its capacity as such. 
 2.07 Payments and
Computations. 
 (a) The Account Parties shall make each payment hereunder irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off (except
as otherwise provided in Section 2.11), not later than 11:00 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the day when due, in U.S. dollars, to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account in same day funds, with
payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment
by such Account Party is in respect of principal, interest, commitment fees or any other amount then payable hereunder to more than one Bank, to such Banks for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the
amounts of such respective amount then payable to such Banks and (ii) if such payment by such Account Party is in respect of any amount then payable hereunder to one Bank, to such Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each
case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(d), from and after
the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall 

  

 26 

 
make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Bank assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance
shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. 
 (b) Each
Account Party hereby authorizes each Bank, if an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) has occurred and is continuing, to charge from time to time against any or all of such Account Party’s accounts with such Bank any amount
that resulted in such Event of Default. 
 (c) All computations of interest on Letter of Credit Advances (and any other amount payable by
reference to the Base Rate) when the Base Rate is determined by reference to Wachovia’s prime rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 days or, if applicable, 366 days; all other computations of interest,
fees and Letter of Credit commissions shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days. All such computations shall be made for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in
the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate, fee or commission hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(d) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding
Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fee, as the case may be. 
 2.08 Taxes. 
 (a) Any and all payments by any Loan Party hereunder shall be made, in accordance with
Section 2.07, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Bank and each
Agent, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income by the United States and taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the state or foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which such Bank or
such Agent, as the case may be, is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Bank, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the state or foreign jurisdiction of
such Bank’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder being herein referred to as
“Taxes”). If any Loan Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or to any Bank or any Agent, (i) the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary
so that after such Loan Party and the Administrative Agent have made all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.08) such Bank or such Agent, as the case may be, receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make all such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  

 27 

 (b) In addition, each Loan Party shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property or
similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (herein referred to as
“Other Taxes”). 
 (c) Each Loan Party shall indemnify each Bank and each Agent for and hold them harmless against the full
amount of Taxes and Other Taxes, and for the full amount of taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.08, imposed on or paid by such Bank or such Agent (as the case may be) and any liability
(including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification payment shall be made within 30 days from the date such Bank or such Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand
therefor. 
 (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, each Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its
address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment. In the case of any payment hereunder by or on behalf of a Loan Party through an account or branch outside the United
States or by or on behalf of a Loan Party by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Loan Party determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Loan Party shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the
Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this Section 2.08(d) or Section 2.08(e), the terms
“United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701(a)(9) and 7701(a)(10) of the Internal Revenue Code, respectively. 
 (e) Each Bank organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this
Agreement in the case of each Initial Bank or each Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Bank in the case of each other Bank, and from time to time thereafter as requested
in writing by the Parent (but only so long thereafter as such Bank remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Parent with two original Internal Revenue Service forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI or (in the case of a
Bank that has certified in writing to the Administrative Agent that it is not a “bank” as defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code) form W-8 (and, if such Bank delivers a form W-8, a certificate representing that
such Bank is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of the Parent and is not a
controlled foreign corporation related to the Parent (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code)), as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Bank
is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or, in the case of a Bank providing a form W-8, certifying that such Bank is a foreign corporation, partnership, estate or trust. If
the forms provided by a Bank at the time such Bank first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and
until such Bank provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided, 

  

 28 

 
however, that if, at the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Bank becomes a party to this Agreement, the Bank assignor
was entitled to payments under Section 2.08(a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be
imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Bank assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this Section 2.08(e) requires
the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8 (and the related certificate described above), that
the Bank reasonably considers to be confidential, the Bank shall give notice thereof to the Parent and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. 
 (f) For any period with respect to which a Bank which may lawfully do so has failed to provide the Parent with the appropriate form described in
Section 2.08(e) above (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring after the date on which a form originally was required to be provided or if such form otherwise is not required under
Section 2.08(e) above), such Bank shall not be entitled to indemnification under Sections 2.08(a) or 2.08(c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however,
that should a Bank become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Parent shall take such steps as such Bank shall reasonably request to assist such Bank to recover such Taxes. 
 (g) Each Bank represents and warrants to the Account Parties that, as of the date such Bank becomes a party to this Agreement, such Bank is entitled to
receive payments hereunder from the Account Parties without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes. 
 2.09 Sharing of
Payments, Etc. If any Bank shall obtain at any time any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise, other than as a result of an assignment pursuant to Section 9.07)
(a) on account of obligations due and payable to such Bank hereunder at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such obligations due and payable to such Bank at such time to (ii) the
aggregate amount of the obligations due and payable to all Banks hereunder at such time) of payments on account of the obligations due and payable to all Banks hereunder at such time obtained by all the Banks at such time or (b) on account of
obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Bank hereunder at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such obligations owing to such Bank at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount
of the obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Banks hereunder at such time) of payments on account of the obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Banks hereunder at such time obtained by all of the Banks at such time, such
Bank shall forthwith purchase from the other Banks such interests or participating interests in the obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment
ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each other Bank shall be rescinded and such other Bank shall repay to
the purchasing Bank the purchase price to the extent of such Bank’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the purchase price paid to such Bank to (ii) the aggregate purchase price 

  

 29 

 
paid to all Banks) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Bank’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of
such other Bank’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. Each Account Party
agrees that any Bank so purchasing an interest or participating interest from another Bank pursuant to this Section 2.09 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off)
with respect to such interest or participating interest, as the case may be, as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of such Account Party in the amount of such interest or participating interest, as the case may be. 
 2.10 Use of Letters of Credit. The Letters of Credit shall be used for the general corporate purposes of the Account Parties and their respective
Subsidiaries. 
 2.11 Defaulting Banks. 
 (a) In the event that, at any one time, (i) any Bank shall be a Defaulting Bank, (ii) such Defaulting Bank shall owe a Defaulted Amount to any Agent or any of the other Banks and (iii) any Account Party
shall make any payment hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Bank, then the Administrative Agent may, on its behalf or on behalf of such other Banks and to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, apply at such time the amount so paid by such Account Party to or for the account of such Defaulting Bank to the payment of each such Defaulted Amount to the extent required to pay such Defaulted Amount. In the event
that the Administrative Agent shall so apply any such amount to the payment of any such Defaulted Amount on any date, the amount so applied by the Administrative Agent shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
payment, to such extent, of such Defaulted Amount on such date. Any such amount so applied by the Administrative Agent shall be retained by the Administrative Agent or distributed by the Administrative Agent to such other Banks, ratably in
accordance with the respective portions of such Defaulted Amounts payable at such time to the Administrative Agent and such other Banks and, if the amount of such payment made by such Account Party shall at such time be insufficient to pay all
Defaulted Amounts owing at such time to the Administrative Agent, such other Agents and such other Banks, in the following order of priority: 
 (i) first, to the Agents for any Defaulted Amounts then owing to the Agents; 
 (ii)
second, to the Issuing Banks for any amount then due and payable to them, in their capacity as such, by such Defaulting Bank, ratably in accordance with such amounts then due and payable to the Issuing Banks; and 
 (iii) third, to any other Banks for any Defaulted Amounts then owing to such other Banks, ratably in accordance with such
respective Defaulted Amounts then owing to such other Banks. 
  

 30 

 Any portion of such amount paid by such Account Party for the account of such Defaulting Bank remaining, after giving
effect to the amount applied by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.11(a), shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as specified in Section 2.11(b). 
 (b) In the event that, at any one time, (i) any Bank shall be a Defaulting Bank, (ii) such Defaulting Bank shall not owe a Defaulted Amount and
(iii) any Account Party, any Agent or other Bank shall be required to pay or distribute any amount hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the account of such Defaulting Bank, then such Account Party or such Agent or such other
Bank shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent to be held by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in escrow and the Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hold
in escrow such amount otherwise held by it. Any funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow under this Section 2.11(b) shall be deposited by the Administrative Agent in an account with Wachovia in the name and under the control of
the Administrative Agent, but subject to the provisions of this Section 2.11(b). The terms applicable to such account, including the rate of interest payable with respect to the credit balance of such account from time to time, shall be
Wachovia’s standard terms applicable to escrow accounts maintained with it. Any interest credited to such account from time to time shall be held by the Administrative Agent in escrow under, and applied by the Administrative Agent from time to
time in accordance with the provisions of, this Section 2.11(b). The Administrative Agent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, apply all funds so held in escrow from time to time to the extent necessary to make any
Advances required to be made by such Defaulting Bank and to pay any amount payable by such Defaulting Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, as and when such Advances or amounts are required
to be made or paid and, if the amount so held in escrow shall at any time be insufficient to make and pay all such Advances and amounts required to be made or paid at such time, in the following order of priority: 
 (i) first, to the Agents for any amounts then due and payable by such Defaulting Bank to the Agents hereunder; 
 (ii) second, to the Issuing Banks for any amount then due and payable to them, in their capacity as such, by such Defaulting Bank,
ratably in accordance with such amounts then due and payable to such Issuing Banks; and 
 (iii) third, to any other
Banks for any amount then due and payable by such Defaulting Bank to such other Banks hereunder, ratably in accordance with such respective amounts then due and payable to such other Banks. 
 In the event that any Bank that is a Defaulting Bank shall, at any time, cease to be a Defaulting Bank, any funds held by the Administrative Agent in escrow at such time
with respect to such Bank shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to such Bank and applied by such Bank to the obligations owing to such Bank at such time under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents ratably in accordance with the
respective amounts of such obligations outstanding at such time. 
  

 31 

 (c) The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Bank under this Section 2.11 are in addition
to other rights and remedies that any Agent or any Bank may have against such Defaulting Bank with respect to any Defaulted Amount. 
 2.12
Replacement of Affected Bank, Defaulting Bank or Nonconsenting Bank. At any time any Bank is an Affected Bank, a Defaulting Bank or a Nonconsenting Bank, the Account Parties may, at their sole expense (including the assignment fee specified
in Section 9.07(a)) and effort, replace such Affected Bank, Defaulting Bank or Nonconsenting Bank as a party to this Agreement with one or more other Banks and/or Eligible Assignees, and upon notice from the Account Parties such Affected
Bank, Defaulting Bank or Nonconsenting Bank shall assign pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, and without recourse or warranty, its LC Commitment Amount, its Letter of Credit Advances, its obligations to fund Letter of Credit payments, its
participation in, and its rights and obligations with respect to, Letters of Credit, and all of its other rights and obligations hereunder to such other Banks and/or Eligible Assignees for a purchase price equal to the sum of the principal amount of
the Letter of Credit Advances so assigned, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, such Affected Bank’s, Defaulting Bank’s or Nonconsenting Bank’s ratable share of all accrued and unpaid fees payable pursuant to
Section 2.05 and all other obligations owed to such Affected Bank hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Affected Bank, Defaulting Bank or Nonconsenting Bank shall be required to make any such assignment if, prior to its
receipt of the notice from the Account Parties referred to in the foregoing sentence, as a result of a waiver or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Account Parties to require such assignment cease to apply, and (ii) no Nonconsenting
Bank shall be required to make any such assignment if at the time of any such proposed assignment, any Default under this Agreement has occurred and is continuing. 
 2.13 Certain Provisions Relating to the Issuing Banks and Letters of Credit. 
 (a) Letter of
Credit Agreements. The representations, warranties and covenants by the Account Parties under, and the rights and remedies of each Issuing Bank under, any Letter of Credit Agreement relating to any Letter of Credit are in addition to, and not in
limitation or derogation of, representations, warranties and covenants by the Account Parties under, and rights and remedies of each Issuing Bank and the Banks under, this Agreement and applicable law. Each Account Party acknowledges and agrees that
all rights of each Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of each Bank to the extent of its Letter of Credit Participating Interest Commitment and Letter of Credit Advances as fully as if such Bank was a party
to such Letter of Credit Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any Letter of Credit Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail. 
 (b) Certain Provisions. The Issuing Banks shall have no duties or responsibilities to any Agent or any Bank except those expressly set forth in
this Agreement, and no implied duties or responsibilities on the part of the Issuing Banks shall be read into this Agreement or shall otherwise exist. The duties and responsibilities of the Issuing Banks to the Banks and the Agents under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be mechanical and administrative in nature, and the Issuing Banks shall not have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Agent, any Bank or any other Person. No Issuing Bank shall be liable for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any Loan Document or Letter of Credit, except to the extent resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally 

  

 32 

 
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Issuing Banks shall not be under any obligation to ascertain, inquire or give any notice to any Agent or
any Bank relating to (i) the performance or observance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document on the part of any Account Party, (ii) the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or
prospects of the Account Parties or any other Person, or (iii) the existence of any Default. The Issuing Banks shall not be under any obligation, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Agent or any Bank with any notices,
reports or information of any nature, whether in its possession presently or hereafter, except for such notices, reports and other information expressly required by this Agreement to be so furnished. The Issuing Banks shall not be responsible for
the execution, delivery, effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness, validity or adequacy of this Agreement or any Loan Document. 
 (c)
Administration. Each Issuing Bank may rely upon any notice or other communication of any nature (written, electronic or oral, including telephone conversations and transmissions through each Issuing Bank’s remote access system, whether
or not such notice or other communication is made in a manner permitted or required by this Agreement or any other Loan Document) purportedly made by or on behalf of the proper party or parties, and each Issuing Bank shall not have any duty to
verify the identity or authority of any Person giving such notice or other communication. Each Issuing Bank may consult with legal counsel (including its in-house counsel or in-house or other counsel for the Account Parties), independent public
accountants and any other experts selected by it from time to time, and each Issuing Bank shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. Whenever
an Issuing Bank shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established with respect to any Account Party, any Agent or any Bank, such matter may be established by a certificate of such Account Party, such Agent or such Bank, as
the case may be, and such Issuing Bank may conclusively rely upon such certificate. An Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have any knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default unless such Issuing Bank has received notice from a Bank, an
Agent or an Account Party referring to this Agreement, describing such Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. 
 (d) Indemnification of Issuing Banks by Banks. Each Bank hereby agrees to reimburse and indemnify each Issuing Bank and each of its directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by the Account Parties and
without limitation of the obligations of the Account Parties to do so), in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all amounts, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs or disbursements of any kind or nature (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (other than in-house counsel) for each Issuing Bank or such other Person in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial
proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not each Issuing Bank or such other Person shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against each Issuing Bank, in its capacity as such, or such
other Person, as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Letter of Credit, any transaction from time to time contemplated hereby or thereby, or any transaction financed
in whole or in part or directly or indirectly with the proceeds of any Letter of Credit, provided, that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such amounts, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs or disbursements to the 

  

 33 

 
extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Issuing Bank or such other Person, as finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction. 
 (e) Issuing Banks in their Individual Capacity. With respect to its commitments and the obligations owing to it, each
Issuing Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and each other Loan Document as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not an Issuing Bank, and the term “Banks” and like terms shall include each
Issuing Bank in its individual capacity as such. Each Issuing Bank and its affiliates may, without liability to account to any Person, make loans to, accept deposits from, acquire debt or equity interests in, act as trustee under indentures of, act
as agent under other credit facilities for, and engage in any other business with, any Account Party and any stockholder, subsidiary or affiliate of any Account Party, as though such Issuing Bank were not an Issuing Bank hereunder. 
 2.14 Downgrade Event with Respect to a Bank. 
 (a) If a Downgrade Event shall occur with respect to (i) any Downgraded Bank or (ii) any other Bank and, as a result thereof, such other Bank becomes a Downgraded Bank, then the Administrative Agent may, by notice to such
Downgraded Bank and the Parent within 45 days after such Downgrade Event (any such notice, a “Downgrade Notice”), request that the Account Parties use reasonable efforts to replace such Bank as a party to this Agreement pursuant to
Section 2.12. If such Bank is not so replaced within 45 days after receipt by the Account Parties of such Downgrade Notice, then (x) if no Default exists and such Downgraded Bank has not exercised its right to remain a Bank
hereunder pursuant to clause (y) below, the following shall occur concurrently: 
 (i) the Committed Facility shall be
reduced by the amount of the LC Commitment Amount of such Downgraded Bank, 
 (ii) the Account Parties shall prepay all
amounts owed to such Downgraded Bank hereunder or in connection herewith, 
 (iii) if, upon the reduction of the Committed
Facility under clause (i) above and the payment under clause (ii) above, the sum of the principal amount of all Advances plus the Available Amount of all Letters of Credit (valuing the Available Amount of, and Letter of Credit Advances of
the Issuing Banks in respect of, any Non-Dollar Letter of Credit at the Dollar Equivalent thereof as of the time of such calculation) would exceed the amount of the Committed Facility, then the Account Parties will immediately eliminate such excess
by paying Advances and/or causing the Available Amount of one or more Letters of Credit to be reduced, and 
 (iv) upon
completion of the events described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, such Downgraded Bank shall cease to be a party to this Agreement; 
 or
(y) if a Default exists or, not later than 30 days after receipt of such Downgrade Notice, such Downgraded Bank notifies the Account Parties, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent that such Downgraded Bank elects to provide (in a
manner reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent) cash collateral to the Administrative Agent for (or if such Downgraded 

  

 34 

 
Bank is unable, without regulatory approval, to provide cash collateral, a letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent covering) its
contingent obligations to reimburse each Issuing Bank for any payment under any Letter of Credit as provided in Section 2.02(f) (its “LC Participation Obligations”), such Downgraded Bank shall be obligated to (and
each Bank agrees that in such circumstances it will) deliver to the Administrative Agent (I) immediately, cash collateral (or, as aforesaid, a letter of credit) in an amount equal to its LC Participation Obligations and (II) from time to time
thereafter (so long as it is a Downgraded Bank), cash collateral (or, as aforesaid, a letter of credit) sufficient to cover any increase in its LC Participation Obligations as a result of any proposed issuance of or increase in a Letter of Credit.
Any funds provided by a Downgraded Bank for such purpose shall be maintained in segregated deposit accounts in the name of the Issuing Banks at the Administrative Agent’s principal offices in the United States (each a “Downgrade
Account”). The funds so deposited in any Downgrade Account (or any drawing under such a letter of credit) shall be used only in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 2.14. 
 (b) If any Downgraded Bank shall be required to fund its participation in a payment under a Letter of Credit pursuant to
Section 2.02(f), then the Administrative Agent shall apply the funds deposited in the applicable Downgrade Account by such Downgraded Bank (or any drawing under such a letter of credit) to fund such participation. The deposit of
funds in a Downgrade Account by any Downgraded Bank (or any drawing under such a letter of credit) shall not constitute a Letter of Credit Advance (and the Downgraded Bank shall not be entitled to interest on such funds except as provided in
Section 2.14(c) below) unless and until (and then only to the extent that) such funds (or any drawing under such a letter of credit) are used by the Administrative Agent to fund the participation of such Downgraded Bank pursuant to the
first sentence of this Section 2.14(b). 
 (c) Funds in a Downgrade Account shall be invested in such investments as may be
agreed between the Administrative Agent and the applicable Downgraded Bank, and the income from such investments shall be distributed to such Downgraded Bank from time to time (but not less often than monthly) as agreed between the Administrative
Agent and such Downgraded Bank. The Administrative Agent will (i) from time to time, upon request by a Downgraded Bank, release to such Downgraded Bank any amount on deposit in the applicable Downgrade Account in excess of the LC Participation
Obligations of such Downgraded Bank (or, if applicable, not draw under any such letter of credit in excess of the L/C Participation Obligations of such Downgraded Bank) and (ii) upon the earliest to occur of (A) the effective date of any
replacement of such Downgraded Bank as a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, (B) the termination of such Downgraded Bank’s LC Commitment Amount pursuant to Section 2.14(a) or (C) the first Business Day
after receipt by the Administrative Agent of evidence (reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) that such Bank is no longer a Downgraded Bank, release to such Bank all amounts on deposit in the applicable Downgrade Account (or, if
applicable, return such letter of credit to such Bank for cancellation). 
 (d) At any time any Downgraded Bank is required to maintain cash
collateral with the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.14, the Issuing Banks shall have no obligation to issue or increase any Letter of Credit unless such Downgraded Bank has provided sufficient funds as cash collateral to
the Administrative Agent to cover all LC Participation Obligations of such Downgraded Bank (including in respect of the Letter of Credit to be issued or increased). 
  

 35 

 2.15 Non-Dollar Letters of Credit. 
 (a) The Account Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Banks (i) agree that an Issuing Bank may (in its sole discretion), with
the prior approval of the Administrative Agent, issue Letters of Credit (“Non-Dollar Letters of Credit”) in currencies other than U.S. dollars and (ii) further agree as set forth in the following subsections of this
Section 2.15 with respect to such Non-Dollar Letters of Credit. 
 (b) The Account Parties agree that their reimbursement
obligations under Section 2.03(a) and any resulting Letter of Credit Advance, in each case in respect of a drawing under any Non-Dollar Letter of Credit, (i) shall be payable in Dollars at the Dollar Equivalent of such obligation in
the currency in which such Non-Dollar Letter of Credit was issued (determined on the date of payment by the Account Parties or, in the event of payment by the Banks pursuant to Section 2.02(f), on the date of such payment by the Banks),
and (ii) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 2%, for each day from and including the date on which the Applicable Account Party is to reimburse an Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(a) to but
excluding the date such obligation is paid in full. 
 (c) Each Bank agrees that its obligation to pay an Issuing Bank such Bank’s Pro
Rata Share of the unreimbursed portion of any payment by such Issuing Bank under Section 2.02(f) in respect of a drawing under any Non-Dollar Letter of Credit shall be payable in Dollars at the Dollar Equivalent of such obligation in the
currency in which such Non-Dollar Letter of Credit was issued (calculated on the date of payment), and any such amount which is not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate plus, beginning on the third
Business Day after such amount was due, 2%. 
 (d) For purposes of determining whether there is availability for the Account Parties to
request any Advance or to request the issuance or extension of, or any increase in, any Letter of Credit, the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Available Amount of each Non-Dollar Letter of Credit shall be calculated as of the date such Advance is to
be made or such Letter of Credit is to be issued, extended or increased. 
 (e) For purposes of determining the letter of credit fee under
Section 2.05(c), the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Available Amount of any Non-Dollar Letter of Credit shall be determined on each of (i) the date of an issuance, extension or change in the Available Amount of such Non-Dollar
Letter of Credit, (ii) the date of any payment by an Issuing Bank in respect of a drawing under such Non-Dollar Letter of Credit, (iii) the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and (iv) each day on which the
LC Commitment Amounts are to be reduced pursuant to Section 2.04 (it being understood that no requested reduction shall be permitted to the extent that, after making a calculation pursuant to this Section 2.15(e), such
reduction would be greater than the unused portion of the LC Commitment Amounts). 
 (f) If, on the last Business Day of each March, June,
September and December, the sum of the principal amount of all Advances plus the Available Amount of all Letters of Credit (valuing the Available Amount of, and Letter of Credit Advances in respect of, any Non-Dollar Letter of Credit at the Dollar
Equivalent thereof as of such day) would exceed the amount of the 

  

 36 

 
Committed Facility, then the Account Parties will immediately eliminate such excess by paying Advances and/or causing the Available Amount of one or more
Letters of Credit to be reduced. 
 (g) If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due in
respect of any Non-Dollar Letter of Credit in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with its normal banking procedures, Wachovia in its capacity as an Issuing Bank could purchase the
first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of any Account Party in respect of any such sum due from it to any Issuing Bank or any Bank hereunder shall, notwithstanding
any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the applicable Non-Dollar Letter of Credit (the
“Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Issuing Bank or such Bank of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, such Issuing Bank or such Bank may in
accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Issuing Bank or such Bank in the Agreement
Currency, the Applicable Account Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Issuing Bank or such Bank, as applicable, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is
greater than the sum originally due to such Issuing Bank or such Bank in such currency, each Issuing Bank and each Bank agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Applicable Account Party (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto
under applicable law). 
 (h) For purposes of this Section 2.15, “Dollar Equivalent” means, in relation to an
amount denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the amount of U.S. dollars which could be purchased with such amount by Wachovia in its capacity as an Issuing Bank in accordance with its customary procedures (and giving effect to any
transaction costs) at the quoted foreign exchange spot rate of Wachovia in its capacity as an Issuing Bank at the time of determination; and “Overnight Rate” means, for any day, the rate of interest per annum at which overnight
deposits in the applicable currency, in an amount approximately equal to the amount with respect to which such rate is being determined, would be offered for such day by Wachovia in its capacity as an Issuing Bank to major banks in the London or
other applicable offshore interbank market. The Overnight Rate for any day which is not a Business Day (or on which dealings are not carried on in the applicable offshore interbank market) shall be the Overnight Rate for the immediately preceding
Business Day. 
 2.16 Increase of LC Commitment Amounts. 
 (a) From time to time subsequent to the Effective Date, the Account Parties jointly may, upon at least five days’ notice to the Administrative Agent
(which shall promptly provide a copy of such notice to the Banks), propose to increase the aggregate amount of the LC Commitment Amounts by an amount which (i) is $25,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $5,000,000, with respect to any such
request, and (ii) when aggregated with all prior increases in the LC Commitment Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16 is not in excess of $500,000,000. The Borrowers may increase the aggregate LC Commitment Amounts by
(i) agreeing with any Bank to increase its LC Commitment Amount hereunder, (ii) having another bank or other banks 

  

 37 

 
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks (each, an “Additional Bank”) become party to this Agreement or
(iii) a combination of the procedures described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence. 
 (b) An increase in the aggregate
amount of the LC Commitment Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall become effective upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent signed by the Account
Parties, by each Additional Bank and by each other Bank whose LC Commitment Amount is to be increased, setting forth the new LC Commitment Amounts of such Banks and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Bank to become a party to this
Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof, together with such evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Account Parties with respect thereto and such opinions of counsel for the Account Parties with
respect thereto as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. At the time of any increase in the aggregate LC Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.16, the Account Parties shall represent (i) that, immediately before
and after such increase is made, no Default under this Agreement has occurred and is continuing and (ii) that the representations and warranties of the Account Parties contained in the Loan Documents are true in all material respects on and as
of the date such increase is made, except for such representations or warranties which by their terms are made as of a specified date, which shall be true and correct as of such specified date.

Consolidated balance sheet of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as at June 30, 2007, and the related Consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Parent and its Subsidiaries for the six months then ended, duly certified by the Chief

with GAAP applied on a consistent basis (subject, in the case of the June 30, 2007 balance sheet and statements of income and cash flows, to the absence of footnotes). Since December 31, 2006, there has been no Material Adverse Change.

 (h) No written information, exhibit or report furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to any Agent or any Bank in connection with the
negotiation and syndication of the Loan Documents or pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading as at
the date it was dated (or if not dated, so delivered). 
 (i) Margin Stock constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of any
Account Party which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge or other disposition hereunder. 
 (j) Neither any Loan Party nor any of
its Subsidiaries is an “investment company”, or an “affiliated person” of, or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company”, as such terms are defined in the Investment Company
Act of 1940. Neither the making of any Advances, nor the issuance of any Letters of Credit, nor the application of the proceeds or repayment thereof by any Account Party, nor the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents, will violate any provision of such Act or any rule, regulation or order of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder. 
 (k) Each Loan Party is, individually and together with its Subsidiaries, Solvent. 
 (l) Except to the extent that any and all
events and conditions under clauses (i) through (v) below of this Section 4.01(l) in the aggregate are not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: 
 (i) Neither any Loan Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or is reasonably expected to incur any Withdrawal Liability to any
Multiemployer Plan. 
 (ii) With respect to each scheme or arrangement mandated by a government other than the United States
(a “Foreign Government Scheme or Arrangement”) and with respect to each employee benefit plan that is not subject to United States law 

  

 42 

 
maintained or contributed to by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Subsidiary of any Loan Party may have liability under applicable local law (a
“Foreign Plan”): 
 (A) Any employer and employee contributions required by law or by the terms of any
Foreign Government Scheme or Arrangement or any Foreign Plan have been made, or, if applicable, accrued, in accordance with normal accounting practices. 
 (B) The fair market value of the assets of each funded Foreign Plan, the liability of each insurer for any Foreign Plan funded through insurance or the book reserve established for any Foreign Plan, together with any
accrued contributions, is sufficient to procure or provide for the accrued benefit obligations, as of the date hereof, with respect to all current and former participants in such Foreign Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations
most recently used to account for such obligations in accordance with applicable generally accepted accounting principles. 
 (C) Each Foreign Plan required to be registered has been registered and has been maintained in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities. 
 (iii) During the twelve-consecutive-month period prior to the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the
request for any Letter of Credit to be issued hereunder, no steps have been taken to terminate any Pension Plan, no contribution failure has occurred with respect to any Pension Plan sufficient to give rise to a lien under section 302(f) of ERISA
and no minimum funding waiver has been applied for or is in effect with respect to any Pension Plan. No condition exists or event or transaction has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any Pension Plan which could result in
any Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliate incurring any material liability, fine or penalty. 
 (iv) Each Pension Plan is in
compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code and other federal or state laws. 
 (v) No assets of any Loan Party are or are deemed under applicable law to be “plan assets” within the meaning of Department of Labor Regulation §2510.3-101. 
 (m) In the ordinary course of its business, each Account Party reviews the effect of Environmental Laws on the operations and properties of such Account
Party and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates associated liabilities and costs (including any capital or operating expenditures required for clean-up or closure of properties presently or previously owned, any
capital or operating expenditures required to achieve or maintain compliance with environmental protection standards imposed by law or as a condition of any 

  

 43 

 
license, permit or contract, any related constraints on operating activities, including any periodic or permanent shutdown of any facility or reduction in
the level of or change in the nature of operations conducted thereat, and any actual or potential liabilities to third parties and any related costs and expenses). On the basis of this review, each Account Party has reasonably concluded that such
associated liabilities and costs, including the costs of compliance with Environmental Laws, are unlikely to have a Material Adverse Effect. The operations and properties of each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries comply in all material
respects with all applicable Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits, except for non-compliances which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; Hazardous Materials have not been
released, discharged or disposed of on any property currently or formerly owned or operated by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and there are no Environmental Actions
pending or threatened against any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, and no circumstances exist that could be reasonably likely to form the basis of any such Environmental Action, which (in either case), individually or in the aggregate with all other
such pending or threatened actions and circumstances, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (n) Each Loan Party
and each of its Subsidiaries has filed, has caused to be filed or has been included in all material federal tax returns and all other material tax returns required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown thereon to be due, together with applicable
interest and penalties, except to the extent contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings (in which case adequate reserves have been established therefor in accordance with GAAP). 
 (o) Set forth on Schedule II hereto is a list of all Existing Letters of Credit. 
 (p) Neither any Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is a Sanctioned Person. 
 (q) Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with the Patriot Act. No part of any payment under any Letter
of Credit will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to
obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977. 
 ARTICLE V 
 COVENANTS OF THE ACCOUNT PARTIES 
 5.01 Affirmative Covenants. So long as any Advance or any other obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall remain unpaid, any
Letter of Credit shall be outstanding or any Bank shall have any Letter of Credit Participating Interest Commitment or commitment to issue a Letter of Credit hereunder, each Account Party will: 
 (a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders, such
compliance to include compliance with Environmental Laws, Environmental Permits, ERISA and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Chapter of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970, except where the failure to do so, individually or in
the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  

 44 

 (b) Payment of Taxes, Etc. Pay and discharge, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay and
discharge, before the same shall become delinquent, all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its property; provided, however, that neither any Account Party nor any of its Subsidiaries
shall be required to pay or discharge any such tax, assessment, charge or levy that is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves are being maintained. 
 (c) Maintenance of Insurance. Maintain, and cause each of its Material Subsidiaries to maintain, insurance with responsible and reputable
insurance companies or associations in such amounts and covering such risks as is usually carried by companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in the same general areas in which the Parent or such Material Subsidiary
operates (it being understood that the foregoing shall not apply to maintenance of reinsurance or similar matters which shall be solely within the reasonable business judgment of the Parent and its Subsidiaries). 
 (d) Preservation of Corporate Existence, Etc. Preserve and maintain, and cause each of its Material Subsidiaries to preserve and maintain, its
existence, legal structure, legal name, rights (charter and statutory), permits, licenses, approvals, privileges and franchises; provided, however, that (i) the Parent and its Subsidiaries may consummate any merger or amalgamation
or consolidation permitted under Section 5.02(c), (ii) no Subsidiary (other than an Account Party) shall be required to preserve and maintain its existence, legal structure, legal names or other rights (charter and statutory) if the
Board of Directors of a direct or indirect parent of such Subsidiary has determined that such action is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Parent, such parent or the Banks, and (iii) neither the Parent nor any of its
Subsidiaries shall be required to preserve any right, permit, license, approval, privilege or franchise if the Board of Directors of the Parent or such Subsidiary shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of

 (iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any obligation of any
other obligor under any of the Loan Documents; 
 (iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any
obligor, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any other obligor or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any other obligor contained in any of the Loan Documents;

 (v) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which any obligor may have at any time against any other obligor,
the Administrative Agent, any Bank or any other corporation or person, whether in connection with any of the Loan Documents or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate
suit or compulsory counterclaim; 
 (vi) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any other obligor for any
reason of any of the Loan Documents, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any other obligor of principal interest or any other amount payable under any of the Loan Documents; 
 (vii) any law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction, or any other event, affecting any term of any obligation of the Banks’ rights
with respect thereto; or 
 (viii) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any obligor, the Administrative
Agent, any Bank or any other corporation or person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to an Account Party’s obligations under this
Article VII.

obligations under this Article VII shall remain in full force and effect until the commitments of the Banks hereunder shall have terminated, no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding and all amounts payable by the other Account Parties under
the Loan Documents shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any reimbursement obligation or any other amount payable by an Account Party under the Loan 

  

 57 

 
Documents is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Account Party or otherwise, each
other Account Party’s obligations under this Article VII with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. 
 7.04 Waiver by the Account Parties. Each Account Party irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not
provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any corporation or person against any other obligor or any other corporation or person. 
 7.05 Subrogation. Each Account Party hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter
acquire against any other Account Party, or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Account Party’s obligations under or in respect of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document,
including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Bank against any other Account Party, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor or
any collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including the right to take or receive from any other Account Party, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, directly
or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, no Letters
of Credit shall be outstanding and the commitments of the Banks hereunder shall have expired or been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Account Party in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the latest of
(a) the payment in full in cash of all amounts payable under this Guaranty, and (b) the Expiration Date, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Banks, shall be segregated from other property and funds of
such Account Party and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to all amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether
matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as collateral for any amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (i) any Account Party shall make payment to any Bank of all or any amounts
payable under this Guaranty, (ii) all amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, and (iii) the Expiration Date shall have occurred, the Banks will, at such Account Party’s request and expense, execute
and deliver to such Account Party appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Account Party of an interest in the obligations resulting from such payment
made by such Account Party pursuant to this Guaranty. 
 7.06 Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any
amount payable by any Account Party under any of the Loan Documents is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Account Party, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement shall
nonetheless be payable by the other Account Parties under this Article VII forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the request of the requisite proportion of the Banks. 
  

 58

and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Banks and their successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence, any Bank may assign or otherwise transfer
all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Letter of Credit Participating Interest Commitment and the Advances owing to it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon
become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Bank herein or otherwise, in each case as and to the extent provided in Section 9.07. 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 THE AGENTS 
 8.01 Authorization and Action. Each Bank (in its capacity as a Bank) hereby appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its
behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to
any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents, no Agent shall be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act (in the case of the Administrative Agent) or to refrain from acting (and shall be
fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Banks or all the Banks where unanimity is required, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks; provided, however, that no Agent
shall be required to take any action that exposes such Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Bank prompt notice of each notice given to it by any Account
Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 8.02 Agents’ Reliance, Etc. Neither any Agent nor any of its respective
directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation
of the generality of the foregoing, each Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted
to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (b) makes no warranty or representation to any Bank and shall not be responsible to any Bank for any statements, warranties or
representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Loan Documents; (c) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Loan
Document on the part of any Loan Party or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Loan Party; (d) shall not be responsible to any Bank for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency
or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; and (e) shall 

  

 59 

 
incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by
telegram or telecopy) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. 
 8.03 Agents and
Affiliates. With respect to its LC Commitment Amounts, and the Advances, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent; and the term
“Bank” or “Banks” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include each Agent in its individual capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept
investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Loan Party, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person that may do business with or own securities of any Loan Party or any such Subsidiary, all as if such Agent
were not an Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Banks. 
 8.04 Bank Credit Decision. Each Bank acknowledges that it
has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Bank and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. 
 8.05 Indemnification. 
 (a) Each Bank severally agrees to indemnify each Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and Affiliates (to the extent not
promptly reimbursed by the Account Parties) from and against such Bank’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent or any such other Person in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent
under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such
Agent’s or other Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including fees and
expenses of counsel) payable by the Account Parties under Section 9.04, to the extent that such Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Account Parties. 
 (b) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the Banks’ respective ratable shares of any amount shall be determined, at any time, according to
the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Advances outstanding at such time and owing to the respective Banks, (ii) their respective Pro Rata Shares of the aggregate Available Amounts of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such
time and (iii) their respective Unused LC Commitment Amounts at such time. The failure of any Bank to reimburse any Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Banks to such Agent as provided herein
shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent for its ratable share of 

  

 60 

 
such amount, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to reimburse such Agent for such other Bank’s ratable share of such
amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Bank hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Bank contained in this Section 8.05 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other
amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. 
 8.06 Successor Administrative Agent. Any Agent may resign at any time
by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Parent. Upon any such resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject (so long as no Event of
Default exists) to the consent of the Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after
the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Banks’ removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Administrative
Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. If within 45 days after written notice is given of the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal under this Section 8.06 no successor
Administrative Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (i) the retiring Administrative
Agent’s resignation or removal shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Administrative Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Required Banks shall thereafter perform
all duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Banks appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as
Agent shall have become effective, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If Bank of America ceases to be a Bank hereunder,
it shall be deemed to have resigned as Syndication Agent and no replacement shall be appointed. 
 ARTICLE IX

are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. 
 9.04 Costs and Expenses. 
 (a) Each of the Account Parties agrees to pay on demand (i) all reasonable and documented costs and expenses of the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers

(including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Bank with respect thereto); provided that the Account Parties shall only be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of a
single counsel for the Banks (as opposed to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks) unless, and to the extent that, such counsel reasonably determines that a conflict requires the engagement of additional counsel. 
 (b) Each of the Account Parties jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, each Joint Lead Arranger, each Issuing Bank, each
Bank and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without

contemplated thereby, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful 

  

 63 

 
misconduct of such Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates; provided that the Account Parties shall only be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of a
single counsel for the Indemnified Parties (other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks, which may engage separate counsel) unless, and to the extent that, such counsel reasonably determines that a conflict requires the engagement of
additional counsel. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 9.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is
brought by any Loan Party, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents are consummated. Each of the
Account Parties also agrees not to assert any claim against any Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Bank or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, for
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the credit facilities provided hereunder, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or the Letters of Credit, the Loan Documents or any of
the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. 
 (c) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Loan Party
hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the agreements and obligations of the Account Parties contained in Section 2.07 and this Section 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts

continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare amounts owing hereunder to be due and payable pursuant

all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Agent, such Bank or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Account Party against any and all
of the obligations of such Account Party now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether such Agent or such Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Agent
and each Bank agrees promptly to notify each Account Party after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of
each Agent and each Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Agent, such Bank and their respective
Affiliates may have. 
 9.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each Account
Party, each Issuing Bank and each Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Bank that such Initial Bank has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Account Party, each
Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Bank and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Account Party shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Banks.

interest of each Person entitled to receive payments in respect of any participating interests sold pursuant to this Section 9.07. 
 (g) Any Bank may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any
information relating to any Account Party furnished to such Bank by or on behalf of any Account Party; provided, however, that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to
preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information received by it from such Bank. 
 (h) Notwithstanding any other provision set
forth in this Agreement, any Bank may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with
Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 
 9.08 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery

 9.09 No Liability of the Issuing Banks. Each Account Party assumes all risks of the acts or
omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither an Issuing Bank nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use
that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should
prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by such Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not strictly comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any
documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that such Account Party shall have a claim against
such Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to such Account Party, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such Account Party that such Account Party proves were caused by (i) such Issuing
Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms of the Letter of
Credit or (ii) such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit. In
furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Banks may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary.

 9.10 Confidentiality. Neither any Agent nor any Bank shall disclose any Confidential Information to any Person without the consent
of the Parent, other than (a) to such Agent’s or such Bank’s Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, to actual or prospective Eligible Assignees and participants, and to any direct, indirect, actual
or prospective counterparty (and its advisor) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction related to the obligations under this Agreement, and in each case then only on a confidential basis, (b) as required by any law, rule or
regulation or judicial process, (c) as requested or required by any state, federal or foreign authority or examiner regulating such Bank or pursuant to any request of any self-regulatory body having or claiming authority to regulate or oversee
any aspect of a Bank’s business of that of any of its Affiliates and (d) to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of
any Confidential Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Bank. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the information subject to this Section 9.10 shall not include, and the Administrative Agent and
each Bank may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the other Loan Documents and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the Administrative Agent or such Bank relating to such
tax treatment and tax structure (it being understood that this authorization is retroactively effective to the commencement of the first discussions between or among any of the parties regarding the transactions contemplated hereby or by any of the
other Loan Documents); provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning such tax treatment or tax structure as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to such
portions of the document or similar item that relate to such tax treatment or tax structure. 
  

 68 

 9.11 Jurisdiction, Etc. 
 (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New
York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to
which it is a party, 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 any such
New York State court 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 shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in the courts of any
jurisdiction. 
 (b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively
do so, any objection that 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 of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in any New York State or federal
court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (c) Each of the Account Parties hereby irrevocably appoints Mayer Brown LLP, with offices on the Effective Date at 1675 Broadway, New York, New York,
10019, USA as its agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf services of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents which may be served in any such action or proceeding. If for any reason such agent shall cease to
be available to act as such, the Account Parties agree to promptly designate a new agent satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf service of
any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents which may be served in any such action or proceeding pursuant to the terms of this Section 9.11. In the event that any Borrower shall fail to designate such new agent, service of
process in any such action or proceeding may be made on such Account Party by the mailing of copies thereof by express or overnight mail or courier, postage prepaid, to such Account Party at its address set forth opposite its signature below.

 9.12 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

 9.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Account Parties, the Agents and the Banks irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in
any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to any of the Loan Documents, the Advances or the actions of any Agent or any Bank in the negotiation, administration, performance or
enforcement thereof. 
  

 69 

 9.14 Disclosure of Information. Each Account Party agrees and consents to the Administrative
Agent’s disclosure of information relating to this transaction to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications. Such information will consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications. The Parent
shall have the right to review and approve any such disclosure made by the Administrative Agent before such disclosure is made (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). 
 9.15 Certain Effective Date Matters. Upon the Effective Date, (i) the Existing Reimbursement Agreement shall be deemed amended and restated
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) any bank or financial institution party to the Existing Reimbursement Agreement that is not a Bank under this Agreement shall be released from all of its obligations under the Existing
Reimbursement Agreement and shall have no obligations under this Agreement. 
 9.16 No Novation. The terms and conditions of the
Existing Reimbursement Agreement are amended as set forth in, and restated in their entirety and superseded by, this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a novation of any of the obligations and liabilities existing under the
Existing Reimbursement Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or instrument executed in connection herewith, the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the incurrence of obligations and
liabilities hereunder shall be in substitution for, but not in payment of, the obligations and liabilities owed by the Borrower under the Existing Reimbursement Agreement. From and after the Closing Date, each reference to the “Agreement”,
“Reimbursement Agreement” or other reference originally applicable to the Existing Reimbursement Agreement contained in any Loan Document shall be a reference to this Agreement.

 EXHIBIT A 
 FORM OF ASSIGNMENT AND ACCEPTANCE 
 ASSIGNMENT AND ACCEPTANCE dated as of ____________, 20___ between
________________________ (the “Assignor”) and ________________________ (the “Assignee”), and [consented to and] accepted by Wachovia Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Administrative

 W I T N E S S
E T H 
 WHEREAS, this Assignment and Acceptance (the “Agreement”) relates to the Second Amended and
Restated Reimbursement Agreement dated as of ___________, 2007 among the Parent and other Account Parties party thereto, the Assignor and the other Banks party thereto, the Syndication Agent party thereto and the Administrative Agent, providing for
a $1,000,000,000 unsecured letter of credit facility for the benefit of the Account Parties (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Reimbursement Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, as provided under the Reimbursement Agreement, the Assignor has a commitment to participate in Letters of Credit and make Letter of Credit
Advances to the Account Parties in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $_______________; 
 WHEREAS, Letters
of Credit with a total amount available for drawing thereunder of $_______________ are outstanding at the date hereof; 
 WHEREAS, Letter of
Credit Advances made to the Account Parties by the Assignor under the Reimbursement Agreement in the aggregate principal amount of $___________ are outstanding at the date hereof; and 
 WHEREAS, the Assignor proposes to assign to the Assignee all of the rights of the Assignor under the Reimbursement Agreement and the other Loan Documents
in respect of a portion of its LC Commitment Amount thereunder in an amount equal to $____________ (the “Assigned Amount”), together with a corresponding portion of its outstanding Letter of Credit Participating Interest, Letter of
Credit Participating Interest Commitment, LC Participation Obligations, Letter of Credit Exposure, and Letter of Credit Advances, if any, and the Assignee proposes to accept assignment of such rights and assume the corresponding obligations from the
Assignor on such terms. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements contained herein, the parties hereto
agree as follows: 
 1. Definitions. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth
in the Reimbursement Agreement. 

 2. Assignment. The Assignor hereby assigns and sells to the Assignee all of the rights of the
Assignor under the Reimbursement Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the extent of the Assigned Amount, and the Assignee hereby accepts such assignment from the Assignor and assumes all of the obligations of the Assignor under the
Reimbursement Agreement to the extent of the Assigned Amount, including the outstanding Letter of Credit Participating Interest Commitment and Letter of Credit Exposure, and the amount of the Letter of Credit Advances, if any, outstanding at the
date hereof. Upon the execution and delivery hereof by the Assignor, the Assignee[, the Administrative Agent and the Parent] and the payment of the amounts specified in Section 3 required to be paid on the date hereof (i) the Assignee
shall, as of the date hereof, succeed to the rights and be obligated to perform the obligations of a Bank under the Reimbursement Agreement with an LC Commitment Amount (in addition to any LC Commitment Amount theretofore held by it) equal to the
Assigned Amount, and (ii) the LC Commitment Amount of the Assignor shall, as of the date hereof, be reduced by a like amount and the Assignor shall be released from its obligations under the Reimbursement Agreement to the extent such
obligations have been assumed by the Assignee. The assignment provided for herein shall be without recourse to the Assignor. 
 3.
Payments. As consideration for the assignment and sale contemplated in Section 2 hereof, the Assignee shall pay to the Assignor on the date hereof the amount heretofore agreed between them.1 It is understood that commitment and Letter of Credit fees accrued to the date hereof in respect of the Assigned Amount are for the account of the Assignor and such fees accruing
from and including the date hereof are for the account of the Assignee. Each of the Assignor and the Assignee hereby agrees that if it receives any amount under the Reimbursement Agreement which is for the account of the other party hereto, it shall
receive the same for the account of such other party to the extent of such other party’s interest therein and shall promptly pay the same to such other party. 
 4. [Consent of the Administrative Agent and the Parent. Pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement, this Agreement is conditioned upon the consent of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Parent. The execution of this Agreement by the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the Parent is evidence of this consent.] 
 5. Non-Reliance on Assignor. The Assignor makes no representation or warranty in connection with, and shall have no responsibility with respect to, the solvency, financial condition or statements of the Account
Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or the validity and enforceability of the obligations of the Account Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries in respect of any Loan Document. The Assignee acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance on the Assignor, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and will continue to be responsible for making its
own independent appraisal of the business, affairs and financial condition of the Account Parties and their respective Subsidiaries. 

	1	Amount should combine the principal amount of any Letter of Credit Advances made by the Assignor together with accrued interest and breakage
compensation, if any, to be paid by the Assignee, net of any portion of any upfront fee to be paid by the Assignor to the Assignee. It may be preferable in an appropriate case to specify these amounts generically or by formula rather than as a fixed
sum. 

 6. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of New York. 
 7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an
original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. 
 [Remainder of page intentionally left
blank.] 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed and delivered by their duly
authorized officers as of the date first above written.
