 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 The
undersigned, Hilb Rogal & Hobbs Company (herein called the “Company”), hereby agrees with you as follows: 
 1.
AUTHORIZATION OF ISSUE OF NOTES. 
 1A. Authorization of Issue of Series A Notes. The Company will authorize the issue of its
senior secured promissory notes (the “Series A Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000 to be dated the date of issue thereof, to mature August 27, 2017, to bear interest on the unpaid balance thereof from the
date thereof until the principal thereof shall have become due and payable at the rate of 6.44% per annum and on overdue principal, Yield-Maintenance Amount and interest at the rate specified therein, and to be substantially in the form of
Exhibit A-1 attached hereto. The terms “Series A Note” and “Series A Notes” as used herein shall include each Series A Note delivered pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and each Series A Note
delivered in substitution or exchange for any such Series A Note pursuant to any such provision. 
 1B. Authorization of Issue of Shelf
Notes. The Company will authorize the issue of its additional senior secured promissory notes (the “Shelf Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000, to be dated the date of issue thereof, to mature, in the case
of each Shelf Note so issued, no more than 10 years after the date of original issuance thereof, to have an average life, in the case of each Shelf Note so issued, of no more than 10 years after the date of original issuance thereof, to bear
interest on the unpaid balance thereof from the date thereof at the rate per annum, and to have such other particular terms, as shall be set forth, in the case of each Shelf Note so issued, in the Confirmation of Acceptance with respect to such
Shelf Note delivered pursuant to paragraph 2B(6), and to be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 attached hereto. The terms “Shelf Note” and “Shelf Notes” as used herein shall include each Shelf Note
delivered pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and each Shelf Note delivered in substitution or exchange for any such Shelf Note pursuant to any such provision. The terms “Note” and “Notes” as used herein
shall include each Series A Note and each Shelf Note delivered pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and each Note delivered in substitution or exchange for any such Note pursuant to any such provision. Notes which have (i) the same final
maturity, (ii) the same principal prepayment dates, (iii) the same principal prepayment amounts (as a percentage of the original principal amount of each Note), (iv) the same interest rate, (v) the same interest payment periods
and (vi) the same date of issuance (which, in the case of a Note issued in exchange for another Note, shall be deemed for these purposes the date on which such Note’s ultimate predecessor Note was issued), are herein called a
“Series” of Notes. 
 2. PURCHASE AND SALE OF NOTES. 
 2A. Purchase and Sale of Series A Notes. The Company hereby agrees to sell to each Series A Note Purchaser and, subject to the terms and conditions
herein set forth, Series A Note Purchaser each agrees to 

 
purchase from the Company the aggregate principal amount of Series A Notes set forth opposite its name on the Purchaser Schedule attached hereto at
100% of such aggregate principal amount. On September 10, 2007 or any other date prior to October 30, 2007 upon which the Company may agree (herein called the “Series A Closing Day”), the Company will deliver to each
Series A Note Purchaser at the offices of King & Spalding, LLP, 1185 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10036, one or more Series A Notes registered in its name, evidencing the aggregate principal amount of Series A Notes to be
purchased by each Series A Note Purchasers and in the denomination or denominations specified with respect to each Series A Note Purchasers in the Purchaser Schedule attached hereto, against payment of the purchase price thereof by transfer
of immediately available funds for credit to the Company’s account #136-621-225-0600 at Bank of America, New York, New York, ABA Routing Number 026009593. 
 2B. Purchase and Sale of Shelf Notes. 
 2B(1). Facility. Prudential is willing
to consider, in its sole discretion and within limits which may be authorized for purchase by Prudential and Prudential Affiliates from time to time, the purchase of Shelf Notes pursuant to this Agreement. The willingness of Prudential to consider
such purchase of Shelf Notes is herein called the “Facility”. At any time, the aggregate principal amount of Shelf Notes stated in paragraph 1B, minus the aggregate principal amount of Shelf Notes purchased and sold pursuant
to this Agreement prior to such time, minus the aggregate principal amount of Accepted Notes (as hereinafter defined) which have not yet been purchased and sold hereunder prior to such time, is herein called the “Available Facility
Amount” at such time. NOTWITHSTANDING THE WILLINGNESS OF PRUDENTIAL TO CONSIDER PURCHASES OF SHELF NOTES, THIS AGREEMENT IS ENTERED INTO ON THE EXPRESS UNDERSTANDING THAT NEITHER PRUDENTIAL NOR ANY PRUDENTIAL AFFILIATE SHALL BE
OBLIGATED TO MAKE OR ACCEPT OFFERS TO PURCHASE SHELF NOTES, OR TO QUOTE RATES, SPREADS OR OTHER TERMS WITH RESPECT TO SPECIFIC PURCHASES OF SHELF NOTES, AND THE FACILITY SHALL IN NO WAY BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY PRUDENTIAL OR ANY PRUDENTIAL
AFFILIATE. 
 2B(2). Issuance Period. Shelf Notes may be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement until the
earlier of (i) the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement (or if such anniversary is not a Business Day, the Business Day next preceding such anniversary), (ii) the thirtieth day after Prudential shall have given to the Company,
or the Company shall have given to Prudential, written notice stating that it elects to terminate the issuance and sale of Shelf Notes pursuant to this Agreement (or if such thirtieth day is not a Business Day, the Business Day next preceding such
thirtieth day), (iii) the last Closing Day after which there is no Available Facility Amount, and (iv) the acceleration of any Note under paragraph 7A. The period during which Shelf Notes may be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement
is herein called the “Issuance Period”. 
 2B(3). Periodic Spread Information. Not later than 9:30 A.M. (New
York City local time) on a Business Day during the Issuance Period if there is an Available Facility Amount on such Business Day, the Company may request by telecopier or telephone, and Prudential will, to the extent reasonably practicable, provide
to the Company on such Business Day (or, if such request is received after 9:30 A.M. (New York City local time) on such Business Day, on the following Business Day), information (by telecopier or telephone) with respect to various spreads at which
Prudential or Prudential Affiliates might be interested in purchasing Shelf Notes of different average lives; provided, however, that the Company may not make such requests more frequently than once in every five Business Days or such
other period as shall be mutually agreed to by the Company and Prudential. The amount and content of information so provided shall be in the sole discretion of Prudential but it is the intent of Prudential to provide information which will be of use
to the Company in determining whether to initiate procedures for use of the Facility. Information so provided shall not constitute an offer to purchase Shelf Notes, and neither Prudential nor any Prudential Affiliate shall be obligated to purchase
Shelf Notes at the spreads specified. Information so provided shall be representative of potential interest only for the period commencing on the day such information is provided and ending on the earlier of the fifth Business Day after such day and
the first day after such day 

  

 2 

 
on which further spread information is provided. Prudential may suspend or terminate providing information pursuant to this paragraph 2B(3) for any reason,
including its determination that the credit quality of the Company has declined since the date of this Agreement. 
 2B(4).
Request for Purchase. The Company may from time to time during the Issuance Period make requests for purchases of Shelf Notes (each such request being herein called a “Request for Purchase”). Each Request for Purchase shall
be made to Prudential by telecopier or overnight delivery service, and shall (i) specify the aggregate principal amount of Shelf Notes covered thereby, which shall not be less than $10,000,000 and not be greater than the Available Facility
Amount at the time such Request for Purchase is made, (ii) specify the principal amounts, final maturities, principal prepayment dates and amounts and interest payment periods (quarterly or semi-annual in arrears) of the Shelf Notes covered
thereby, (iii) specify the use of proceeds of such Shelf Notes, (iv) specify the proposed day for the closing of the purchase and sale of such Shelf Notes, which shall be a Business Day during the Issuance Period not less than 10 days and
not more than 25 days after the making of such Request for Purchase, (v) specify the number of the account and the name and address of the depository institution to which the purchase prices of such Shelf Notes are to be transferred on the
Closing Day for such purchase and sale, (vi) certify that the representations and warranties contained in paragraph 8 are true on and as of the date of such Request for Purchase and that there exists on the date of such Request for Purchase no
Event of Default or Default, (vii) specify the Designated Spread for such Shelf Notes and (viii) be substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto. Each Request for Purchase shall be in writing and shall be deemed made when
received by Prudential. 
 2B(5). Rate Quotes. Not later than five Business Days after the Company shall have given
Prudential a Request for Purchase pursuant to paragraph 2B(4), Prudential may, but shall be under no obligation to, provide to the Company by telephone or telecopier, in each case between 9:30 A.M. and 1:30 P.M. New York City local time (or such
later time as Prudential may elect) interest rate quotes for the several principal amounts, maturities, principal prepayment schedules, and interest payment periods of Shelf Notes specified in such Request for Purchase. Each quote shall represent
the interest rate per annum payable on the outstanding principal balance of such Shelf Notes at which Prudential or a Prudential Affiliate would be willing to purchase such Shelf Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof. 
 2B(6). Acceptance. Within 30 minutes after Prudential shall have provided any interest rate quotes pursuant to paragraph 2B(5) or
such shorter period as Prudential may specify to the Company (such period herein called the “Acceptance Window”), the Company may, subject to paragraph 2B(7), elect to accept such interest rate quotes as to not less than $10,000,000
aggregate principal amount of the Shelf Notes specified in the related Request for Purchase. Such election shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Company notifying Prudential by telephone or telecopier within the Acceptance Window that the
Company elects to accept such interest rate quotes, specifying the Shelf Notes (each such Shelf Note being herein called an “Accepted Note”) as to which such acceptance (herein called an “Acceptance”) relates. The
day the Company notifies an Acceptance with respect to any Accepted Notes is herein called the “Acceptance Day” for such Accepted Notes. Any interest rate quotes as to which Prudential does not receive an Acceptance within the
Acceptance Window shall expire, and no purchase or sale of Shelf Notes hereunder shall be made based on such expired interest rate quotes. Subject to paragraph 2B(7) and the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company agrees to sell to Prudential
or a Prudential Affiliate, and Prudential agrees to purchase, or to cause the purchase by a Prudential Affiliate of, the Accepted Notes at 100% of the principal amount of such Notes. As soon as practicable following the Acceptance Day, the Company,
Prudential and each Prudential Affiliate which is to purchase any such Accepted Notes will execute a confirmation of such Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto (herein called a “Confirmation of
Acceptance”). If the Company should fail to execute and return to Prudential within three Business Days following receipt thereof a Confirmation of Acceptance with respect to any Accepted Notes, Prudential may at its election at any time
prior to its receipt thereof cancel the closing with respect to such Accepted Notes by so notifying the Company in writing. 
  

 3 

 2B(7). Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2B(4), if
Prudential shall have provided interest rate quotes pursuant to paragraph 2B(5) and thereafter prior to the time an Acceptance with respect to such quotes shall have been notified to Prudential in accordance with paragraph 2B(4) the domestic market
for U.S. Treasury securities or derivatives shall have closed or there shall have occurred a general suspension, material limitation, or significant disruption of trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or in the domestic
market for U.S. Treasury securities or derivatives, then such interest rate quotes shall expire, and no purchase or sale of Shelf Notes hereunder shall be made based on such expired interest rate quotes. If the Company thereafter notifies Prudential
of the Acceptance of any such interest rate quotes, such Acceptance shall be ineffective for all purposes of this Agreement, and Prudential shall promptly notify the Company that the provisions of this paragraph 2B(7) are applicable with respect to
such Acceptance. 
 2B(8). Facility Closings. Not later than 11:30 A.M. (New York City local time) on the Closing Day
for any Accepted Notes, the Company will deliver to each Purchaser listed in the Confirmation of Acceptance relating thereto at the offices of King & Spalding LLP, 1185 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10036, the Accepted Notes to
be purchased by such Purchaser in the form of one or more Notes in authorized denominations as such Purchaser may request for each Series of Accepted Notes to be purchased on the Closing Day, dated the Closing Day and registered in such
Purchaser’s name (or in the name of its nominee), against payment of the purchase price thereof by transfer of immediately available funds for credit to the Company’s account specified in the Request for Purchase of such Notes. If the
Company fails to tender to any Purchaser the Accepted Notes to be purchased by such Purchaser on the scheduled Closing Day for such Accepted Notes as provided above in this paragraph 2B(8), or any of the conditions specified in paragraph 3 shall not
have been fulfilled by the time required on such scheduled Closing Day, the Company shall, prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City local time, on such scheduled Closing Day notify Prudential (which notification shall be deemed received by each Purchaser)
in writing whether (i) such closing is to be rescheduled (such rescheduled date to be a Business Day during the Issuance Period not less than one Business Day and not more than 10 Business Days after such scheduled Closing Day (the
“Rescheduled Closing Day”)) and certify to Prudential (which certification shall be for the benefit of each Purchaser) that the Company reasonably believes that it will be able to comply with the conditions set forth in paragraph 3
on such Rescheduled Closing Day and that the Company will pay the Delayed Delivery Fee in accordance with paragraph 2B(9)(ii) or (ii) such closing is to be canceled. In the event that the Company shall fail to give such notice referred to in
the preceding sentence, Prudential (on behalf of each Purchaser) may at its election, at any time after 1:00 P.M., New York City local time, on such scheduled Closing Day, notify the Company in writing that such closing is to be canceled.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary appearing in this Agreement, the Company may elect to reschedule a closing with respect to any given Accepted Notes on not more than one occasion, unless Prudential shall have otherwise consented in writing.

 2B(9). Fees. 
 2B(9)(i). Issuance Fee. The Company will pay to Prudential in immediately available funds a fee (herein called the “Issuance Fee”) on each Closing Day (other than the Series A Closing Day and
other than any Closing Day which occurs on or prior to October 30, 2007) in an amount equal to 0.125% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes sold on such Closing Day. 
 2B(9)(ii). Delayed Delivery Fee. If the closing of the purchase and sale of any Accepted Note is delayed for any reason beyond the
original Closing Day for such Accepted Note, the Company will pay to Prudential (a) on the Cancellation Date or actual closing date of such purchase and sale and (b) if earlier, the next Business Day following 90 days after the Acceptance
Day for such Accepted Note and on each Business Day following 90 days after the prior payment hereunder, a fee (herein called the “Delayed Delivery Fee”) calculated as follows: 
 (BEY - MMY) X DTS/360 X PA 
 where
“BEY” means Bond Equivalent Yield, i.e., the bond equivalent yield per annum of such Accepted Note; “MMY” means Money Market Yield, i.e., the yield per annum on a commercial paper 

  

 4 

 
investment of the highest quality selected by Prudential on the date Prudential receives notice of the delay in the closing for such Accepted Note having a
maturity date or dates the same as, or closest to, the Rescheduled Closing Day or Rescheduled Closing Days (a new alternative investment being selected by Prudential each time such closing is delayed); “DTS” means Days to
Settlement, i.e., the number of actual days elapsed from and including the original Closing Day with respect to such Accepted Note (in the case of the first such payment with respect to such Accepted Note) or from and including the date of
the next preceding payment (in the case of any subsequent delayed delivery fee payment with respect to such Accepted Note) to but excluding the date of such payment; and “PA” means Principal Amount, i.e., the principal amount
of the Accepted Note for which such calculation is being made. In no case shall the Delayed Delivery Fee be less than zero. Nothing contained herein shall obligate any Purchaser to purchase any Accepted Note on any day other than the Closing Day for
such Accepted Note, as the same may be rescheduled from time to time in compliance with paragraph 2B(8). 
 2B(9)(iii).
Cancellation Fee. If the Company at any time notifies Prudential in writing that the Company is canceling the closing of the purchase and sale of any Accepted Note, or if Prudential notifies the Company in writing under the circumstances set
forth in the last sentence of paragraph 2B(6) or the penultimate sentence of paragraph 2B(8) that the closing of the purchase and sale of such Accepted Note is to be canceled, or if the closing of the purchase and sale of such Accepted Note is not
consummated on or prior to the last day of the Issuance Period (the date of any such notification, or the last day of the Issuance Period, as the case may be, being herein called the “Cancellation Date”), the Company will pay the
Purchasers in immediately available funds an amount (the “Cancellation Fee”) calculated as follows: 
 PI X PA 
 where “PI” means Price Increase, i.e., the quotient (expressed in decimals) obtained by dividing (a) the excess of the ask
price (as determined by Prudential) of the Hedge Treasury Note(s) on the Cancellation Date over the bid price (as determined by Prudential) of the Hedge Treasury Notes(s) on the Acceptance Day for such Accepted Note by (b) such bid price; and
“PA” has the meaning ascribed to it in paragraph 2B(9)(ii). The foregoing bid and ask prices shall be as reported by Telerate Systems, Inc. (or, if such data for any reason ceases to be available through Telerate Systems, Inc., any
publicly available source of similar market data). Each price shall be rounded to the second decimal place. In no case shall the Cancellation Fee be less than zero. 
 3. CONDITIONS OF CLOSING. The obligation of any Purchaser to purchase and pay for any Notes is subject to the satisfaction, on or before the Closing Day for such Notes, of the following conditions: 

3A. Certain Documents. Such Purchaser shall have received the following, each dated the date of the applicable Closing Day:

any Shelf Notes) attached hereto and as to such other matters as such Purchaser may reasonably request. The Company hereby directs each such counsel to deliver such opinion, agrees that the issuance and sale of any Notes will constitute a

specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity
with, GAAP applied on a consistent basis, as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the Audited Financial Statements, except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein. 
 (2) Changes in GAAP. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth
in any Note Document, and either the Company or the Required Holders shall so request, the holders of the Notes and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such
change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Holders); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Company
shall provide to the holders of the Notes financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and
after giving effect to such change in GAAP. 
 (3) Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. All references herein
to consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries or to the determination of any amount for the Company and

be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a
rounding-up if there is no nearest number). 
 (5) Consolidated EBITDA Adjustments. 
 (a) Consolidated EBITDA Acquisition Adjustments. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, for purposes of calculating the
financial covenant in paragraph 6K(1) for any period (or a portion of a period) that includes the date of the consummation of any Permitted Acquisition, references to “the Company and its Subsidiaries” in the definition of
Consolidated EBITDA shall include each acquired Person, or lines of business, as applicable, and Consolidated EBITDA shall be determined on a historical pro forma basis to include the Consolidated EBITDA of such acquired Person or line of business
(such Consolidated EBITDA to be formulated on the basis of the definition of Consolidated EBITDA set forth herein but on a stand-alone basis for such Person), as if the Acquisition had been consummated on the first day of any such period of
measurement. 
 (b) Consolidated EBITDA Disposition Adjustments. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, for
purposes of calculating the financial covenant in paragraph 6K(a) for any period (or a portion of a period) that includes the date of any Disposition of a Subsidiary or line of business, as applicable, Consolidated EBITDA shall be determined
on a historical pro forma basis to exclude the results of operations of such Subsidiary or line of business, as applicable, so disposed, as if such Disposition had been consummated on the first day of such period of measurement. 
 10D. Other Interpretative Provisions. With reference to this Agreement and each other Note Document, unless otherwise specified herein or in such
other Note Document: 
 (1) The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms
defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be
followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise, (i) any definition of or
reference to any agreement, instrument or other document (including any Organization Document) shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject
to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein or in any other Note Document), (ii) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns,

 11. MISCELLANEOUS. 
 11A. Note
Payments. The Company agrees that, so long as any Purchaser shall hold any Note, it will make payments of principal of, interest on, and any Yield-Maintenance Amount payable with respect to, such Note, which comply with the terms of this
Agreement, by wire transfer of immediately available funds for credit (not later than 12:00 noon, New York City local time, on the date due) to (i) the account or accounts of such Purchaser specified in the Purchaser Schedule attached
hereto in the case of any Series A Note, (ii) the account or accounts of such Purchaser specified in the Confirmation of Acceptance with respect to such Note in the case of any Shelf Note or (iii) such other account or accounts in the
United States as such Purchaser may from time to time designate in writing, notwithstanding any contrary provision herein or in any Note with respect to the place of payment. Each Purchaser agrees that, before disposing of any Note, it will make a
notation thereon (or on a schedule attached thereto) of all principal payments previously made thereon and of the date to which interest thereon has been paid. The Company agrees to afford the benefits of this paragraph 11A to any Transferee which
shall have made the same agreement as the Purchasers have made in this paragraph 11A. 
 11B. Expenses. The Company agrees, whether or
not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, to pay, and save Prudential, each Purchaser and any Transferee harmless against liability for the payment of, all out-of-pocket expenses arising in connection with such transactions,
including (i) all taxes (together in each case with interest and penalties, if any), other than state or federal income taxes or franchise taxes, including without limitation, all stamp, intangibles, recording and other taxes, which may be
payable with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the execution, delivery or acquisition of any Notes; (ii) all document production and duplication charges and the fees and expenses of any special counsel engaged by the
Purchasers or any Transferee in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and any subsequent proposed modification of, or proposed consent under, this Agreement, whether or not such proposed modification shall be effected
or proposed consent granted, and (ii) the costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by any Purchaser or any Transferee in connection with the restructuring, refinancing or “workout” of this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or in enforcing (or determining whether or how to enforce) any rights under this Agreement or the Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in
connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or by reason of any Purchaser’s or any Transferee’s having acquired any Note, including without limitation costs and expenses incurred in any bankruptcy case. The
obligations of the Company under this paragraph 11B shall survive the transfer of any Note or portion thereof or interest therein by any Purchaser or any Transferee and the payment of any Note. 
 11C. Consent to Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act
herein required to be performed by it, if the Company shall obtain the written consent to such amendment, action or omission to act, of the Required Holder(s) of the Notes of each Series except that, (i) with the written consent of the holders
of all Notes of a particular Series, and if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, of the holders of all Notes of all Series, at the time outstanding (and not without such written consents), the Notes of such Series may be
amended or the provisions thereof waived to change the maturity thereof, to change or affect the principal thereof, or to change or affect the rate or time of payment of interest on or any Yield-Maintenance Amount payable with respect to the Notes
of such Series, (ii) without the written consent of the holder or holders of all Notes at the time outstanding, no amendment to or waiver of the provisions of this Agreement shall change or affect the provisions of paragraph 7A or this
paragraph 11C insofar as such provisions relate to proportions of the principal amount of the Notes of any Series, or the rights of any individual holder of Notes, required with respect to any declaration of Notes to be due and payable or with
respect to any consent, amendment, waiver or declaration, (iii) with the written consent 

  

 44 

 
of Prudential (and not without the written consent of Prudential) the provisions of paragraph 2B may be amended or waived (except insofar as any such
amendment or waiver would affect any rights or obligations with respect to the purchase and sale of Notes which shall have become Accepted Notes prior to such amendment or waiver), and (iv) with the written consent of all of the Purchasers
which shall have become obligated to purchase Accepted Notes of any Series (and not without the written consent of all such Purchasers), any of the provisions of paragraphs 2B and 3 may be amended or waived insofar as such amendment or waiver would
affect only rights or obligations with respect to the purchase and sale of the Accepted Notes of such Series or the terms and provisions of such Accepted Notes. Each holder of any Note at the time or thereafter outstanding shall be bound by any
consent authorized by this paragraph 11C, whether or not such Note shall have been marked to indicate such consent, but any Notes issued thereafter may bear a notation referring to any such consent. No course of dealing between the Company and the
holder of any Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note. As used herein and in the Notes, the term “this Agreement” and references
thereto shall mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented. 
 11D. Form, Registration, Transfer and
Exchange of Notes; Lost Notes. The Notes are issuable as registered notes without coupons in denominations of at least $1,000,000, except as may be necessary to reflect any principal amount not evenly divisible by $1,000,000. The Company shall
keep at its principal office a register in which the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the principal office of the Company, the Company shall, at
its expense, execute and deliver one or more new Notes of like tenor and of a like aggregate principal amount, registered in the name of such transferee or transferees. At the option of the holder of any Note, such Note may be exchanged for other
Notes of like tenor and of any authorized denominations, of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Note to be exchanged at the principal office of the Company. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall,
at its expense, execute and deliver the Notes which the holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Each installment of principal payable on each installment date upon each new Note issued upon any such transfer or exchange shall be in the
same proportion to the unpaid principal amount of such new Note as the installment of principal payable on such date on the Note surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange bore to the unpaid principal amount of such Note. No reference need
be made in any such new Note to any installment or installments of principal previously due and paid upon the Note surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. Every Note surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed, by the holder of such Note or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing. Any Note or Notes issued in exchange for any Note or upon transfer thereof shall
carry the rights to unpaid interest and interest to accrue which were carried by the Note so exchanged or transferred, so that neither gain nor loss of interest shall result from any such transfer or exchange. Upon receipt of written notice from the
holder of any Note of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of such Note and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of such holder’s unsecured indemnity agreement, or in the case of any such mutilation upon
surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Company will make and deliver a new Note, of like tenor, in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note. 
 11E. Persons Deemed Owners; Participations. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Company may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the owner and holder of such Note for
the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on, and any Yield-Maintenance Amount payable with respect to, such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note shall be overdue, and the Company shall not be
affected by notice to the contrary. Subject to the preceding sentence, the holder of any Note may from time to time grant participations in all or any part of such Note to any Person on such terms and conditions as may be determined by such holder
in its sole and absolute discretion. 
 11F. Survival of Representations and Warranties; Entire Agreement. All representations and
warranties contained herein or made in writing by or on behalf of the Company in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Notes, the transfer by any Purchaser of any Note or portion 

  

 45 

 
thereof or interest therein and the payment of any Note, and may be relied upon by any Transferee, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on
behalf of any Purchaser or any Transferee. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement and the Notes embody the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior
agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter. 
 11G. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements in
this Agreement contained by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto (including, without limitation, any Transferee) whether so expressed or not.
Each transferee of a Note acknowledges that its rights with respect to such Note are subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and shall execute a Joinder to the Intercreditor Agreement to the extent it is not already a party thereto,
promptly upon becoming a holder of a Note. 
 11H. Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent
effect so that if a particular action or condition is prohibited by any one of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or otherwise be in compliance within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the
occurrence of a Default or Event of Default if such action is taken or such condition exists. 
 11I. Notices. All written
communications provided for hereunder (other than communications provided for under paragraph 2) shall be sent by first class mail or nationwide overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid) and (i) if to any Purchaser, addressed as
specified for such communications in the Purchaser Schedule attached hereto (in the case of the Series A Notes) or the Purchaser Schedule attached to the applicable Confirmation of Acceptance (in the case of any Shelf Notes) or at such
other address as any such Purchaser shall have specified to the Company in writing, (ii) if to any other holder of any Note, addressed to it at such address as it shall have specified in writing to the Company or, if any such holder shall not
have so specified an address, then addressed to such holder in care of the last holder of such Note which shall have so specified an address to the Company and (iii) if to the Company, addressed to it at 4951 Lake Brook Drive, Suite 500, Glen
Allen, Virginia 23060, Telecopy 804-747-6046, Attn: President, provided, however, that any such communication to the Company may also, at the option of the Person sending such communication, be delivered by any other means either to
the Company at its address specified above or to any Authorized Officer of the Company. Any communication pursuant to paragraph 2 shall be made by the method specified for such communication in paragraph 2, and shall be effective to create any
rights or obligations under this Agreement only if, in the case of a telephone communication, an Authorized Officer of the party conveying the information and of the party receiving the information are parties to the telephone call, and in the case
of a telecopier communication, the communication is signed by an Authorized Officer of the party conveying the information, addressed to the attention of an Authorized Officer of the party receiving the information, and in fact received at the
telecopier terminal the number of which is listed for the party receiving the communication in the applicable Purchaser Schedule, in the case of any Purchaser, and in this paragraph 11I in the case of the Company, or at such other telecopier
terminal as the party receiving the information shall have specified in writing to the party sending such information. 
 11J. Payments
Due on Non-Business Days. Anything in this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment of principal of or interest on, or Yield-Maintenance Amount payable with respect to, any Note that is due on a date other than a
Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. If the date for any payment is extended to the next succeeding Business Day by reason of the preceding sentence, the period of such extension shall not be included in the computation of
the interest payable on such Business Day, except to the extent such interest is due on the Maturity Date, the period of such extension shall be included in the computation of the interest. 
 11K. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability 

  

 46 

 
without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 11L. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of the several
paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement. 
 11M. Satisfaction
Requirement. If any agreement, certificate or other writing, or any action taken or to be taken, is by the terms of this Agreement required to be satisfactory to any Purchaser, to any holder of Notes or to the Required Holder(s), the
determination of such satisfaction shall be made by such Purchaser, such holder or the Required Holder(s), as the case may be, in the sole and exclusive judgment (exercised in good faith) of the Person or Persons making such determination.

 11N. Governing Law. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF §5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW, THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 11O. Severalty of Obligations. The sales of Notes to the Purchasers are to be several sales, and the obligations of Prudential and the Purchasers under this Agreement are several obligations. No failure by
Prudential or any Purchaser to perform its obligations under this Agreement shall relieve any other Purchaser or the Company of any of its obligations hereunder, and neither Prudential nor any Purchaser shall be responsible for the obligations of,
or any action taken or omitted by, any other such Person hereunder. 
 11P. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. 
 11Q. Binding
Agreement. When this Agreement is executed and delivered by the Company, the Series A Note Purchasers and the Series A Note Purchasers, it shall become a binding agreement between the Company and the Series A Note Purchasers. This Agreement
shall also inure to the benefit of each Purchaser which shall have executed and delivered a Confirmation of Acceptance, and each such Purchaser shall be bound by this Agreement to the extent provided in such Confirmation of Acceptance. 

11R. Submission to Jurisdiction . THE COMPANY HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK, NEW YORK
AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT, SUBJECT TO THE SOLE AND ABSOLUTE ELECTION OF THE REQUIRED HOLDERS, ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER RELATED DOCUMENT SHALL BE LITIGATED IN SUCH COURTS, AND THE COMPANY
WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE BASED ON IMPROPER VENUE OR INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE CONDUCT OF ANY PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURTS.
