Section
2. Exercise.

 

a) Exercise
of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on
or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed PDF copy submitted
by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto as Annex A (the “Notice of Exercise”).
Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined
in Section 2(d)(i) herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the
Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank,
in either case in immediately available funds, unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in
the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other
type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. The Company shall have no obligation to inquire with respect
to or otherwise confirm the authenticity of the signature(s) contained on any Notice of Exercise nor the authority of the person so executing
such Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this
Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised
in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the
date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a
portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant
Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall
maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection
to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this
Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant
Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated
on the face hereof.

 

    	3

     

    

 

b) Exercise
Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $[●], subject to adjustment hereunder (the
“Exercise Price”).

 

c) Cashless
Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained
therein is not available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in
part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant
Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

 

		(A) =	 as applicable:
(i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1)
both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant
to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation
NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the
Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal
Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable
Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered
within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day)
pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise
is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular
trading hours” on such Trading Day;
	 	 	 
		(B) =	 the Exercise
Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and
	 	 	 
		(X) =	 the number of
Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were
by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

 

    	4

     

    

 

If
Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the
Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised. The Company agrees not
to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).

 

d) Mechanics
of Exercise.

 

 i. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company’s transfer agent is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that the Company shall have received payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay, beginning one Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date, to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of the delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

 

    	5

     

    

 

ii. Delivery
of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and
upon surrender of this Warrant, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights
of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares remaining available under this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other
respects be identical with this Warrant.

 

iii. Rescission
Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)
by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise by delivering written notice to the
Company at any time prior to the delivery of such Warrant Shares (in which case any liquidated damages payable under Section 2(d)(i)
shall no longer be payable).

 

iv. Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if
the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section
2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by
its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares
of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon
such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x)
the Holder’s total purchase price (including reasonable and customary brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock
so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver
to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation
was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares
for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of
shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder.
For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted
exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A)
of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written
notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount
of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in
equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure
to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

    	6

     

    

 

v. No
Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall,
at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the
Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

 

vi. Charges,
Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other
incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and
such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided,
however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when
surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the assignment form attached hereto as Annex B (the “Assignment Form”)
duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for
any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of
Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required
for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

 

vii. Closing
of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

    	7

     

    

 

e) Beneficial
Ownership Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise
any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise
as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting
as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)),
would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the
number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number
of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude
the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant
beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or
nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject
to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its
Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership
shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being
acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d)
of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith and the calculations
required under this Section 2(e). To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether
this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties)
and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of
Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities
owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each
case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such
determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section
13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A)
the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement
by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to
the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall
be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or
its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The
“Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately
after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the
Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance
of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to
apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered
to the Company. The provisions of this Section 2(e) shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity
with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this Section 2(e) (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with
the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give
effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this Section 2(e) shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

Section
3. Certain Adjustments.

 

a) Stock
Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes
a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of
Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this
Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse
stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the
Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which
the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event
and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of
shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant
shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for
the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the
effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

b) Subsequent
Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time while this Warrant is outstanding
the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property
pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will
be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have
acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard
to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date
on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which
the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided,
however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder
exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent
(or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to
such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation); provided, that such Purchase Right shall terminate on, and shall not be held in abeyance for any
period subsequent to the Termination Date.

 

c) Pro
Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution
of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including,
without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification,
corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after
the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent
that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete
exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as
of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided,
however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in
the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution
shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder
exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation); provided, that such Purchase Right shall terminate on, and shall not be held in abeyance
for any period subsequent to the Termination Date.

d) Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company (and all of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole),
directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person
(other than for the purpose of changing the Company’s name and/or the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company or a holding
company for the Company), (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance
or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect,
purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of the
outstanding equity securities of the Company having voting power, including the power to vote on the election of directors of the Company,
are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their securities for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders
of the outstanding securities representing more than 50% of the aggregate voting power, including the power to vote on the election of
directors of the Company, of the issued and outstanding equity securities of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in
one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory
share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property,
or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other
business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with
another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires securities representing more than 50% of the aggregate
voting power, including the power to vote on the election of directors of the Company, of the issued and outstanding equity securities
of the Company (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated
or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each
a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right
to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental
Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number
of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional
consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without
regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the
Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration
issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price
among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.
If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then
the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such
Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction (other than (x) any stock
split or reverse stock split, (y) any transaction effected solely for the purpose of changing the jurisdiction of incorporation of the
Company, or (z) any holding company reorganization or parent-subsidiary merger not requiring stockholder approval pursuant to Sections
251(g) or 253 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (or any successor provisions thereof)), and for the avoidance of doubt, the Fundamental
Transaction is approved by the Company’s board of directors and within the control of the Company, the Company or any Successor
Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the
consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction),
purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of
the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction; provided, however,
if the Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company’s control, including not approved by the Company’s Board of Directors,
Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company or any Successor Entity, as of the date of consummation of such Fundamental
Transaction, the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion
of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction,
whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Stock are given
the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided, further,
that if holders of Common Stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders
of Common Stock will be deemed to have received common stock of the Successor Entity (which Successor Entity may be the Company following
such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant
based on the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of
consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding
to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction
and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined
utilizing a 365-day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental
Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the greater of (i) the sum of the price per share being
offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (ii)
the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the announcement of the applicable Fundamental
Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s
request pursuant to this Section 3(d) and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of
the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds within five (5) Trading Days of the Holder’s election (or, if later, on the effective date of the
Fundamental Transaction). The Company shall require any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the
survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and
the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(d) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and
shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by
a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares
of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon
exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and
with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative
value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number
of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately
prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder.
Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from
and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the
“Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume
all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor
Entity had been named as the Company herein.

 

    	10

     

    

 

e) Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes
of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the
number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

 

f) Notice
to Holder.

 

i. Adjustment
to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly
deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number
of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

ii. Notice
to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common
Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall
authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock
of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification
of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company (and all of its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) is a party, any
sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock
is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation
or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by email to the Holder at its
last email or other address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable
record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such
dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common
Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on
which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the
date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock
for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange;
provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the
corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains,
material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice
with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period
commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly
set forth herein.

Section
4. Transfer of Warrant.

 

a) Transferability.
This Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part,
upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of
this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay
any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute
and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations
specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not
so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required
to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall
surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the Holder delivers a duly executed Assignment
Form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new
holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

 

b) New
Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company,
together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or
its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination,
the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in
accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the initial issuance date of this Warrant and
shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

 

    	12

     

    

 

c) Warrant
Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant
Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder
of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other
purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

 

Section
5. Miscellaneous.

 

a) No
Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends
or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set
forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to
Section 2(c) or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event shall the Company be required
to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

 

b) Loss,
Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case
of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include
the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make
and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

 

c) Saturdays,
Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted
herein shall not be a Trading Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Trading Day.

 

d) Authorized
Shares.

 

The
Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a
sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant.
The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with
the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take such
reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable
law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that
all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the
purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other
than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

 

    	13

     

    

 

Except
and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending
its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale
of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant,
but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary
or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise
immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may
validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may
be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

Before
taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from
any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

e) Jurisdiction.
All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed
and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.
The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Holder each agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement
and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against the Company or the Holder or their respective affiliates,
directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts
sitting in the City of New York. The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Holder each hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute
hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and
agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court,
that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. The Company and, by accepting this
Warrant, the Holder each hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit,
action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to
it at the address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service
of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner
permitted by law. If the Company or the Holder shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Warrant,
the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for their reasonable attorneys’
fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

 

    	14

     

    

 

f) Restrictions.
The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not
utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

 

g) Nonwaiver
and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as
a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision of
this Warrant, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material
damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including,
but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting
any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

 h) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holder hereunder including, without limitation, any Notice of Exercise, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by email or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company, at 7946 Ivanhoe Avenue, Suite 201, La Jolla, California 92037, Attention: David Humphrey, CFO, email address: dhumphrey@ensysce.com, or such other email address or address as the Company may specify for such purposes by notice to the Holder. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Company hereunder shall be in writing and delivered personally, by email, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service addressed to the Holder at the email address or address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company. Any notice or other communication or deliveries hereunder shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via email at the email address set forth in this Section prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any date, (ii) the next Trading Day after the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via email at the email address set forth in this Section on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (iii) the second Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. To the extent that any notice provided by the Company hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

    	15

     

    

 

i) Limitation
of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant
Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase
price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.

 

j) Remedies.
The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss
incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any
action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

k) Successors
and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder.
The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable
by such Holder.

 

l) Amendment.
This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the holders of at
least a majority of the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the then outstanding Warrants (determined without giving effect to
Section 2(e) of the Warrants); provided such modification, amendment or waiver applies to all of the then outstanding Warrants.

 

m) Severability.
Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

 

n) Headings.
The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this
Warrant.

 

o) Electronic
Signatures. Electronically scanned and transmitted signatures, including by email attachment, shall be deemed originals for all purposes
of this Warrant.

to the Borrowers in respect of the Term Loan Facility on the Closing Date in the amount of such Lender’s respective Commitment. 

(b) Notes. 

(i) At the request of any Lender, the obligation of the Borrowers to repay Term Loans made by each Lender in
respect of the Term Loan Facility and to pay interest thereon may be evidenced by a Note of the Borrowers substantially in the form of Exhibit 

  
 27 

 
A hereto, with appropriate insertions, dated the date of this Agreement and payable to the order of such Lender on the Maturity Date, in the principal amount of its Commitment. 

(ii) The principal amount of the Term Loans made by each Lender, and all prepayments thereof and the applicable
dates with respect thereto shall be recorded by such Lender from time to time on any ledger or other record of such Lender or such Lender shall record such information by such other method as such Lender may generally employ; provided,
however, that failure to make any such record shall in no way detract from each Borrower’s obligations under any Note. The aggregate unpaid amount of the Term Loans shown on the records of such Lender shall be rebuttably presumptive
evidence of the principal amount owing and unpaid on such Note, as the case may be.

Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Term Loans; Repayment Terms. The obligations of each Lender to make Term Loans to the Borrowers shall equal its Ratable Share of the requested Term Loan; provided that no
Lender’s Term Loan to the Borrower shall exceed its Term Loan Commitment. The failure of any Lender to make a Term Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make a Term Loan nor shall it impose any additional liability on
any other Lender hereunder. The Lenders shall have no obligation to make Term Loans hereunder after the Closing Date, and any portion of the Term Loan Commitment not drawn on the Closing Date shall automatically expire. The Term Loan Commitments are
not revolving credit commitments, and the Borrowers shall not have the right to borrow, repay and reborrow under Section 3.1.

 (b) Permitted Prepayments. Except as set forth in Section 3.3(d), the Borrowers may
prepay, without penalty or premium, not later than 12:00 noon (Cleveland, Ohio time): upon at least three (3) Banking Days’ notice to the Agent prior to the date fixed for such prepayment, stating the proposed date and aggregate principal
amount of the prepayment, and, upon such notice, shall prepay the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans comprising part of the same Term Loan Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of
such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that each partial prepayment of Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) or additional increments of One
Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof. Any prepayment of any Term SOFR Rate Loans made on other than the last day of an Interest Period shall obligate the Borrowers to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to
Section 3.3(d). Upon receipt by the Agent of a notice pursuant to this Section 3.3(b), the Agent shall promptly forward a copy of such notice, by telecopier or email in the case of a prepayment of Term SOFR Rate Loans comprising any Term
Loan Borrowing, to each of the Lenders.

liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Term SOFR Rate Loans) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or
the Agent), a Credit Event does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Rate Conversion/Continuation Request (whether or not rescinded or withdrawn by or on behalf of the Borrowers or deemed rescinded or withdrawn pursuant
to this Agreement); (ii) if any repayment, prepayment, Rate Continuation or Rate Conversion of any of its Term SOFR Rate Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any
of its Term SOFR Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrowers; (iv) if such Lender transfers its Term SOFR Rate Loans pursuant to a request by the Borrowers under Section 3.9(d) hereof; or
(vi) as a consequence of any other default by the Borrowers to repay its Term SOFR Rate Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or any other election by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms hereof. 

SECTION 3.4 Fees. 

(a) Up Front Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, on the Closing Date a
fee in the amount of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000.00), which fee shall be deemed fully earned on the Closing Date. 

(b) Administrative Fee; Documentation Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to (i) the Agent in advance on the Closing Date
and on each anniversary thereof for its own account an administrative fee in the amount set forth in the Fee Letter and (ii) PNC on the Closing Date for its own account an arrangement fee in the amount set forth in the Fee Letter, both of which
fees shall be deemed fully earned on each such date.

 SECTION 3.5 Interest. 

(a) The Borrowers shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans at a rate per annum
(computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the Term SOFR Rate as determined for each applicable Interest Period plus the SOFR Adjustment for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin, it being
understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may select different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Term Loan Borrowings and may convert to or renew one or more Term Loan
Borrowing; provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than six (6) Term Loan Borrowings; provided  

  
 29 

 
further that if an Event of Default or Incipient Default exists and is continuing, then for so long as such Event of Default or Incipient Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding
Term Loan Borrowing may be converted to, or continued as, a Term SOFR Rate Loan and (ii) Majority Lenders may demand that each Term SOFR Rate Loan be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan immediately, subject to the obligation of the
Borrowers to pay any indemnity under Section 3.07(d) in connection with any such conversion, or at the end of the applicable Interest Period. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such
Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate. The Term SOFR Rate shall be determined by the Agent in accordance with the definition thereof, and such
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (b) Interest on Unpaid Obligations; Interest upon Event of
Default. If any principal, interest or fees or other sum due under this Agreement shall not be paid when due, or if any Note shall not be paid at maturity, whether such maturity occurs by reason of lapse of time or by operation of any provision
of acceleration of maturity therein contained (and without waiving any Event of Default resulting therefrom or limiting any right or remedy of the Lenders or the Agent in respect thereof), the principal thereof and the unpaid interest and fees
thereon, or such fees or other sum shall bear interest, payable on demand, at the Increased Rate from time to time in effect in respect of such Loan or other Obligation. The Borrowers acknowledge that this calculation will result in the accrual of
interest on interest and the Borrowers expressly consent and agree to this provision. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, but without waiving such
Event of Default or limiting any right or remedy of the Lenders or the Agent in respect thereof, all of the Obligations shall bear interest at the Increased Rate. 

(c) Conforming Changes Relating to the Term SOFR Rate. With respect to the Term SOFR Rate, the Agent will have the right
to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any
other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, the Agent shall provide notice to the Borrowers and the Lenders of each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes
effective. 
 SECTION 3.6 Payments and Computations. 

(a) Payments. The Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes with respect to principal of, interest
on, and other amounts relating to Term Loans, not later than 11:00 A.M. (Cleveland, Ohio time) on the day when due in dollars to the Agent in immediately available funds by deposit of such funds to the Agent’s account maintained at the Payment
Office. Payments received after 12:00 noon (Cleveland, Ohio time) on any day shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Banking Day. The Agent will promptly thereafter, on the same Banking Day, cause to be distributed like funds
relating to the payment of principal, interest, or other fees or other amounts which may be received in respect of the Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to the express terms of this
Agreement solely to the Agent) to each of the Lenders for the account 

  
 30 

 
of its respective Lending Office, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Lending Office. The funds so distributed
to each Lender shall in each case be applied by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (b)
Authorization to Charge Account. If and to the extent payment owed to any Lender is not made when due hereunder or under the Note held by such Lender, each Borrower hereby authorizes such Lender to charge from time to time against any or all
of such Borrower’s general deposit accounts with such Lender any amount so due. Any Lender exercising the foregoing authorization will endeavor to advise such Borrower of such exercise reasonably promptly thereafter; provided,
however, that such Lender’s failure to do so shall not subject such Lender, the Agent or any other Lender to liability or claim of any nature whatsoever and shall not create in any Borrower any
set-off, defense or other claim of any nature whatsoever. 
 (c) Computations of
Interest and Fees. All computations of interest, and all other fees shall be made by the Agent, on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for
which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Agent (or, in the case of Section 3.7, by a Lender) of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(d) Payment Not on Banking Day. Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day
other than a Banking Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Banking Day, except, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Term SOFR Rate Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such
payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Banking Day. Any such extension or reduction of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest. 

(e) Presumption of Payment in Full by Borrowers. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from Holdings, on behalf of
the Borrowers, prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrowers will make or have made such payment in full to the Agent on such
date. In reliance upon such assumption, the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, distribute to each Lender on such due date the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrowers shall not have made such payment in full to the
Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent promptly upon demand the amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount
to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate plus the amount of any costs, expenses, liabilities or losses incurred by the Agent in connection with its distribution of such funds, unless such costs, expenses, liabilities or losses are the result of the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent. 
 SECTION 3.7 Reserves; Taxes; Indemnities. 

(a) Reserves or Deposit Requirements. If at any time any Law (including, without limitation, Regulation D of the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or the 

  
 31 

 
interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof or any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority shall impose (whether or not having
the force of Law), modify or deem applicable any reserve and/or special deposit requirement (other than reserves included in the SOFR Reserve Percentage, the effect of which is reflected in the interest rate(s) of the Term SOFR Rate Loan(s) in
question) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the amount of any loans by, any Lender, and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost (whether by incurring a cost or adding to a cost) to such Lender of making or maintaining
hereunder Term SOFR Rate Loans or to reduce the amount of principal or interest received by such Lender with respect to such Term SOFR Rate Loans, then upon demand by such Lender the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender from time to time on the last
of each Interest Period with respect to such loans, as additional consideration hereunder, additional amounts sufficient to fully compensate and indemnify such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount, assuming (which assumption such Lender
need not corroborate) such additional cost or reduced amount was allocable to such Term SOFR Rate Loans; provided that such Lender shall be generally assessing such amounts on a non-discriminatory basis
against borrowers under agreements having provisions similar to this Section 3.7(a). A certificate as to the increased cost or reduced amount as a result of any event mentioned in this Section 3.7(a), setting forth the calculations
therefor, shall be promptly submitted by such Lender to the Borrowers and shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence as to the amount thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, after any such demand for compensation by any Lender,
the Borrowers, upon at least three (3) Banking Days’ prior written notice to such Lender through the Agent, may prepay the affected Term SOFR Rate Loans in full or convert all Term SOFR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans regardless of the
Interest Period of any thereof. Any such prepayment or conversion shall entitle the Lenders to the prepayment compensation provided for in Section 3.3 hereof. Each Lender will notify the Borrowers as promptly as practicable (with a copy thereof
delivered to the Agent) of the existence of any event which will likely require the payment by the Borrowers of any such additional amount under this Section. 

(b) Imposition of Taxes. In the event that by reason of any Law or the imposition of any requirement of any central bank
whether or not having the force of Law, any Lender shall, with respect to this Agreement or any transaction under this Agreement, be subjected to any Tax, deduction or withholding of any kind whatsoever (other than Excluded Taxes) and if any such
measures or any other similar measure shall result in an increase in the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Term SOFR Rate Loan or in a reduction in the amount of principal, interest or commitment fee receivable by such Lender in
respect thereof, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers in writing stating the reasons therefor. The Borrowers shall thereafter pay to such Lender upon demand from time to time on the last day of each Interest Period with respect to
such Term SOFR Rate Loans, as additional consideration hereunder, such additional amounts as will fully compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount. A certificate as to any such increased cost or reduced amount, setting forth
the calculations therefor, shall be submitted by such Lender to the Borrowers and shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the amount thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, after any such demand for compensation by any
Lender, the Borrowers, upon at least three (3) Banking Days prior written notice to such Lender through the Agent, may prepay the affected Term SOFR Rate Loans in full or convert all Term SOFR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans regardless of the
Interest Period of any thereof. Any such prepayment or conversion shall entitle the Lenders to prepayment compensation provided for in Section 3.3 hereof. 

  
 32 

 (c) [Reserved]. 

(d) Indemnity. Without prejudice to any other provisions of this Article 3, the Borrowers hereby agree to indemnify each
Lender against any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of any default by the Borrowers in payment when due of any amount due hereunder in respect of any Term SOFR Rate Loan, including, but not limited to, any loss
of profit, premium or penalty incurred by such Lender in respect of funds borrowed by it for the purpose of making or maintaining such Term SOFR Rate Loan, as determined by such Lender in the exercise of its sole but reasonable discretion. A
certificate as to any such loss or expense shall be promptly submitted by such Lender to the Borrowers and shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the amount thereof. 

(e) Changes in Law Rendering Term SOFR Rate Loans Unlawful. If at any time any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for
any Lender to fund any Term SOFR Rate Loans which it is committed to make hereunder with moneys obtained in the Eurodollar market, the commitment of such Lender to fund Term SOFR Rate Loans shall, upon the happening of such event, forthwith be
suspended for the duration of such illegality, and such Lender shall by written notice to the Borrowers and the Agent declare that its Commitment with respect to such Loans has been so suspended and, if and when such illegality ceases to exist, such
suspension shall cease and such Lender shall similarly notify the Borrowers and the Agent. If any such change shall make it unlawful for any Lender to continue in effect the funding in the applicable Eurodollar market of any Term SOFR Rate Loan
previously made by it hereunder, such Lender shall, upon the happening of such event, notify the Borrowers, the Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing stating the reasons therefor, and the Borrowers shall, on the earlier of (i) the last
day of the then current Interest Period or (ii) if required by such Law, regulation or interpretation, on such date as shall be specified in such notice, either convert all Term SOFR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans to the extent permissible under
this Agreement or prepay all Term SOFR Rate Loans to the Lenders in full. Any such prepayment or conversion shall entitle the Lenders to prepayment compensation as provided in Section 3.3 hereof. 

SECTION 3.8 Capital Adequacy; Liquidity. If any Lender shall have determined, that, whether in effect at the date
of this Agreement or hereafter in effect, any applicable Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, or any Change in Law, or compliance by any Lender (or its Lending Office) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity
(whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Governmental Authority has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital allocated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (or the capital or
liquidity of its holding company) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender (or its holding company) could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such
Lender’s policies or the policies of its holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the
Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or its holding company) for such reduction; provided that such Lender shall be generally assessing such amounts on a non-discriminatory basis against borrowers under agreements having provisions similar to this Section 3.8. Each Lender will designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or
reduce the amount of, such compensation 

  
 33 

 
and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this section and setting forth the additional
amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The protection of this Section 3.8
shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Law or other condition which shall have been imposed. 

SECTION 3.9 Taxes. 

(a) All payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of
and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that, if the Borrowers or the Agent shall be required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) to the extent
the deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable will be increased as necessary so that, after all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) are made,
each relevant Lender Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrowers or the Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrowers or the Agent shall pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law. 
 (b) In addition, the Borrowers
shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law. 
 (c) The
Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender Party, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Lender Party with respect to any payment by or obligation of the Borrowers under the
Loan Documents (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not
such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority provided, that such written demand must be made within one (1) year after the applicable payment date by the
Lender Party. Such written demand shall show in reasonable detail the amount payable and the calculations used to determine such amount and shall include reasonable supporting documentation authenticating the claim. A certificate as to the amount of
any such payment delivered to Holdings by a Lender Party on its own behalf, or by the Agent on behalf of a Lender Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall not be liable for the
reimbursement of any interest, penalties or expenses arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Lender Party in taking any action it was required to take. If the Borrowers have indemnified any Lender Party pursuant to this
Section 3.9(c), such Lender Party shall take such steps as the Borrowers shall reasonably request (at the Borrowers’ expense) to assist the Borrowers in recovering the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and any penalties or interest
attributable thereto; provided that no Lender Party shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 3.9(c) unless, such action (i) would not subject such Lender Party to any unreasonable unreimbursed cost or expense
and (ii) would not otherwise be unreasonably disadvantageous to such Lender Party. 

  
 34 

 (d) As soon as practicable after the Borrowers pay any Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes to a Governmental Authority, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. 
 (e) (i) Any Foreign Lender that is eligible for and/or
entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under the Laws of the United States, or any treaty to which the United States is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement or any Loan Document shall deliver to Holdings and
the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by Holdings or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. If any such Foreign Lender
becomes subject to any Tax because it fails to comply with this subsection, the Borrowers shall take such steps (at such Foreign Lender’s expense) as such Foreign Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Foreign Lender to recover such
Tax. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each such Foreign Lender shall deliver to Holdings and the Agent (in such number of signed originals as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of Holdings or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(A) Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8BEN-E (or successor thereto) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income Tax treaty to which the United States is a party, 

(B) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor thereto), 

(C) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or successor thereto) and all
required supporting documentation, 
 (D) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the
exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) or 871(h) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the
Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and
(y) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, or 

(E) any other form prescribed by applicable Laws or such other evidence satisfactory to Holdings or the Agent
as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit Holdings or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be
made. 
 (ii) Any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Holdings and the Agent (in such number of signed originals as shall be reasonably requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such “United States
person” becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter, upon the request of Holdings or the Agent), Internal Revenue 

  
 35 

 
Service Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by Holdings or the Agent as will enable
Holdings or the Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. 

(iii) Each Lender Party shall promptly (I) notify Holdings and the Agent of any change in its
circumstances relating to such Lender Party that would modify or render invalid any previously delivered form or documentation or any claimed exemption or reduction of Taxes and (II) take such steps as shall be reasonably necessary to avoid any
requirement of applicable Law of any applicable jurisdiction that a Borrower or the Agent make any deduction or withholding for Taxes from amounts payable to such Lender Party (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Borrowers
shall be responsible for the reasonable costs and expenses of such Lender Party associated with such actions, but that such expenses shall be without duplication for any expense covered by Section 3.11). Each Lender Party that has delivered a
form required hereunder shall, upon the reasonable request of Holdings or the Agent, deliver to Holdings or the Agent, as applicable, additional copies of such form (or any successor thereto) on or before the date such form expires or becomes
obsolete. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Lender Party shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 3.9 that such Lender Party is not legally able to deliver. 

(iv) In addition to the above, if a payment made to a Foreign Lender under any Loan Document would be subject
to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Foreign Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such
Foreign Lender shall deliver to Holdings and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) such additional documentation reasonably requested by Holdings (or the
Agent) as may be necessary for the Borrowers (or the Agent) to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Foreign Lender has or has not complied with such Foreign Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the
amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for the purposes of this clause (iv), “FATCA” shall include any amendments to FATCA after the Closing Date. 

(f) If any Lender Party shall have actually received a refund (or, in the good faith determination of such Lender Party, shall
have actually received a credit against its current or future Tax liability in lieu of a refund) of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional
amounts pursuant to this Section 3.9 it shall pay to the Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (or such credit in lieu of such refund) (but only to the extent of the indemnity payments actually made, or additional amounts paid by, the
Borrowers under this Section 3.9 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, if any,
incurred by such Lender Party without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrowers, upon the request of such Lender Party, agree to repay the amount
paid over to the Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Lender Party in the event such Lender Party is required to repay such refund

  
 36 

 
to such Governmental Authority and delivers to Holdings evidence reasonably satisfactory to Holdings of such repayment. This Section 3.9(f) shall not be construed to require any Lender Party
to make available its Tax returns (or any information relating to its Taxes that it reasonably deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person. 

SECTION 3.10 No Waiver; Reimbursement Limitation. Failure on the part of any Lender to demand compensation,
payment, or reimbursement of amounts under any of Sections 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9, above, with respect to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s rights to demand such compensation, payment, or reimbursement in such period or
in any other period; provided, however, that no Lender shall be entitled to compensation, payment, or reimbursement of amounts under any of Sections 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9 for any amounts incurred or accruing more than 270 days prior to the
giving of notice to Holdings of any cost, reduction, Taxes or other amount of the nature described in any of such Sections, and provided further, however, that, if such cost, reduction, Tax or other amount is owing by a Lender
by reason of a an audit or assessment by Governmental Authority or Change in Law having effect on a date earlier than the date on which such Lender receives notice thereof, then the 270-day period referred to
above shall be extended to include such period of retroactive effect. 
 SECTION 3.11 Lender’s
Obligation to Mitigate; Replacement of Lenders. 
 (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.7, 3.8 or
3.9, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.7, 3.8 or 3.9, then such Lender shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to
mitigate or eliminate the amount of such compensation or additional amount, including without limitation, by designating a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or by assigning its rights and obligations hereunder to
another of its offices, branches or affiliates; provided that no Lender shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 3.11(a) unless, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment or other action
(i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.7, 3.8 or 3.9, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and (iii) would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.7, 3.8 or 3.9, or if any Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.7, 3.8 or 3.9, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, replace such Lender in accordance with Section 15.15
hereto. 
 SECTION 3.12 [Reserved.] 

SECTION 3.13 Rate Unascertainable; Increased Costs; Illegality; Benchmark Replacement Setting. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document: 
 (a) Unascertainable; Increased
Costs. If at any time: 

  
 37 

 (i) the Agent shall have determined (which determination
shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that Term SOFR Rate cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof; or 

(ii) the Majority Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Term SOFR Rate
Loan or conversion thereto or continuation thereof that the Term SOFR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding, establishing or maintaining such Loan during the applicable Interest Period, and the Majority
Lenders provided notice of such determination to the Agent, 
 then the Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.13(c). 

(b) Illegality. If at any time any Lender shall have determined, or any Governmental Authority shall have asserted,
that the making, maintenance or funding of any Term SOFR Rate Loan, or the determination or charging of interest rates based on the Term SOFR Rate, has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or
any interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or with any request or directive of any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of Law), then the Agent shall have the rights specified in
Section 3.13(c). 
 (c) Agent’s and Lender’s Rights. In the case of
any event specified in Section 3.13(a) above, the Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrowers thereof, and in the case of an event specified in Section 3.13(b) above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Agent and endorse
a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice
(which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (i) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Agent, or (ii) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrowers
to select, convert to or renew a Term SOFR Rate Loan, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Rate Loan or Interest Periods) until the Agent shall have later notified the Borrowers, or such Lender shall have later notified the
Agent, of the Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time prior to a Benchmark Replacement Date (as defined below) the
Agent makes a determination under Section 3.13(a) and the Borrowers have previously notified the Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Term SOFR Rate Loan and the applicable Benchmark Replacement has not yet gone into effect,
such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Base Rate Loan. If any Lender notifies the Agent of a determination under Section 3.13(b), the Borrowers shall, subject to the Borrowers’
indemnification Obligations under Section 3.07(d), as to any Loan of the Lender to which the Term SOFR Rate applies, on the date specified in such notice either convert such Loan to a Base Rate Loan or a Term SOFR Rate Loan with a tenor
otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 3.3(b). Absent due notice from the Borrowers of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to a Base Rate Loan upon such
specified date. 
 (a) Benchmark Replacement Setting. 

  
 38 

 (i) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any agreement executed in connection with an interest rate hedge shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement
Setting”), if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (A) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of
the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and
subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (B) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the
definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00
p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan
Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, interest shall be payable on a
quarterly basis. 
 (ii) Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or
implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming
Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

(iii) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers
and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, and (B) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Agent will
notify the Borrowers of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (iv) below and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be
made by the Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of
an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section. 

(iv) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any
other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current 

  
 39 

 
Benchmark is a term rate or based on a term rate and either (I) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to
time as selected by the Agent in its reasonable discretion or (II) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is
not or will not be representative, then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor; and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (I) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a
Benchmark Replacement) or (II) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest
Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 

(v) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a
Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to the Term SOFR Rate, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Loan bearing interest based on such rate or conversion to or continuation of Loans bearing interest based on such rate to be made,
converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Base Rate Loan or conversion to a Base Rate Loan. During a Benchmark
Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any
determination of the Base Rate. 
 (vi) Definitions. As used in this Section: 

“Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current
Benchmark, as applicable, if such Benchmark is a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark (or component thereof) that is or may be used for determining the length of an Interest Period pursuant to this Agreement as of such date and not including, for
the avoidance of doubt, any tenor of such Benchmark that is then-removed from the definition of “Interest Period” pursuant to clause (iv) of this Section. 

“Benchmark” means, initially, the Term SOFR Reference Rate; provided that if a
Benchmark Transition Event has occurred with respect to the Term SOFR Reference Rate or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such
prior benchmark rate pursuant to this Section. 
 “Benchmark Replacement” means, with
respect to any Benchmark Transition Event, the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date: 

  
 40 

 (1) the sum of: (A) Daily Simple SOFR and (B) the
SOFR Adjustment for a 1-month Interest Period; 
 (2) the sum of
(A) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Agent and the Borrowers, giving due consideration to (x) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the
Relevant Governmental Body or (y) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement to the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time and
(B) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 
 provided that if the Benchmark Replacement as determined
pursuant to clause (2) above would be less than the SOFR Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the SOFR Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and provided further, that any
Benchmark Replacement shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice to the extent administratively feasible as determined by the Agent in its sole discretion. 

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the
then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Agent and the
Borrowers, giving due consideration to (A) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark
Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body or (B) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark
with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time. 

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means a date and time determined by the Agent, which date shall
be no later than the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark: 

(1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of
(A) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (B) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely
ceases to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate or is based on a term rate, all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 

  
 41 

 (2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of
“Benchmark Transition Event,” the date determined by the Agent, which date shall promptly follow the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein; 

For the avoidance of doubt, if such Benchmark is a term rate or is based on a term rate, the “Benchmark Replacement
Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such
Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof). 
 “Benchmark Transition
Event” means, the occurrence of one or more of the following events, with respect to the then-current Benchmark: 

(1) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or
the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate or is based on a term rate, all Available
Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark
(or such component thereof); 
 (2) a public statement or publication of information by a Governmental
Authority having jurisdiction over the Agent, the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, an
insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar
insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide such Benchmark (or such component
thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate or is based on a term rate, all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no
successor administrator that will continue to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate or is based on a term rate, any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such
Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Agent announcing that such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate or is based on a
term rate, all 

  
 42 

 
Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are not, or as of a specified future date will not be, representative. 

For the avoidance of doubt, if such Benchmark is a term rate or is based on a term rate, a “Benchmark
Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the
published component used in the calculation thereof). 
 “Benchmark Unavailability
Period” means the period (if any) (x) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and
under any Loan Document in accordance with this Section 4.4(d) titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting” and (y) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and
under any Loan Document in accordance with this Section 4.4(d) titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting.” 

“Relevant Governmental Body” means the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and/or
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or any successor thereto. 

“Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement excluding the
related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment.

PRO RATA TREATMENT; DEFAULTING LENDERS 

SECTION 4.1 Pro Rata Treatment. Except as required by Section 3.7, Section 4.2 or Section 12.4(b)
or as permitted under Section 3.9, each Term Loan Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Term Loan Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Term Loans, each reduction of the Commitments, each Rate Conversion or Rate
Continuation of Term Loans comprising a Term Loan Borrowing shall be allocated among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Total Commitment Amount (or if the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in
accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts of each Lender’s Term Loans). 
 SECTION 4.2
Defaulting Lenders. (a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a 

  
 43 

 
Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment,
waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Majority Lenders. 

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by
the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 12 or otherwise) or received by the Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 12.13 shall be
applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, as Holdings may request (so long as no
Incipient Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; third, if so determined by
the Agent and Holdings, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any
amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;
fifth, so long as no Incipient Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender
as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (1) such payment is
a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (2) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Article 7 were satisfied or waived,
such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans
are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments (or if the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts of each Lender’s Term Loans) without giving effect
to Section 4.2(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 4.2(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and
redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (a) Defaulting Lender Cure. If
the Borrowers and the Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice, and subject to any conditions set forth therein,
that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in
accordance with the Commitments (or if the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective 

  
 44 

 
outstanding principal amounts of each Lender’s Term Loans) (without giving effect to Section 4.2(a)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no
adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the
affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

(b) [Reserved.] 

(c) Termination of Defaulting Lender. Holdings may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of any Lender that is a
Defaulting Lender upon not less than five (5) Banking Days’ prior notice to the Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 4.2(a)(ii) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid
by the Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
and (ii) such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, the Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

or assets of Holdings or any ERISA Affiliate pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or such penalty or excise Tax provisions, if such liability or Lien, taken together with any other such liabilities or Liens then existing, would reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

an appropriate officer of Holdings. 
 SECTION 8.4 Money Obligations. Each Lincoln Party shall pay, in full
(a) all Taxes, assessments and governmental charges and levies (except only those so long as and to the extent that the same shall be contested in good faith by appropriate and timely proceedings) for which such Lincoln Party may be or become
liable, or to which any or all of the properties of such Lincoln Party may be or become subject, prior to the date on which the failure to make such payment would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (b) all of its
other obligations calling for the payment of money (except only those so long as and to the extent that the same shall be contested in good faith and except further trade accounts payable consistent with such Lincoln Party’s past practice)

and to discuss their respective affairs, finances and accounts with their respective officers and independent public accountants (and by this provision each Borrower hereby authorizes said accountants to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of
such Borrower and its Subsidiaries), all at such times and as often as may be determined by the Agent or such Lender. 

  
 51 

 SECTION 8.6 Franchises. Each Lincoln Party shall preserve and
maintain at all times its corporate existence, rights and franchises, except where the failure to maintain any such corporate right or franchise would reasonably not be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however,
that this Section 8.6 shall not prevent any merger or consolidation permitted by Section 9.3 hereof. 

SECTION 8.7 Certain Subsidiaries to Join as Borrower. In the event that at any time after the Closing Date any
Borrower directly or indirectly has any Significant Subsidiary that is not a Borrower, Holdings shall notify the Agent in writing of such event, identifying the Significant Subsidiary in question and referring specifically to the rights of the Agent
and the Lenders under this Section 8.7. Holdings shall, within 30 days following request therefor from the Agent, cause such Significant Subsidiary to deliver to the Agent (i) a joinder to this Agreement and such other Loan Documents as

 ARTICLE 10 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

Each Borrower jointly and severally represents and warrants to the Agent and each of the Lenders as follows: 

SECTION 10.1 Existence; Subsidiaries. 

(a) Each Borrower is a corporation duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the state of its
incorporation or organization and is duly qualified and authorized to do business wherever it owns any real estate or personal property or transacts any substantial business (except in jurisdictions in which failure to so qualify, singly or in the
aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect). 
 (b) As of the Closing Date, except as set forth on Schedule 10.1
hereto, no Lincoln Party has any Subsidiaries. 
 SECTION 10.2 Power, Authorization and Consent; Enforceability.
The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Notes by a Borrower, and of all Loan Documents to which any of them or Holdings is party (a) are within Holdings’ or such other Borrower’s legal power and authority,
(b) have been duly authorized by all necessary or proper 

  
 59 

 
action of Holdings or such other Borrower, (c) do not require the consent or approval of any Governmental Authority or any other Person which has not been obtained, (d) will not violate
(i) any provision of Law applicable to Holdings or such other Borrower, (ii) any provision of Holdings’ or such other Borrower’s, as the case may be, certificate or articles of incorporation,
by-laws or regulations, or operating agreement, or (iii) any material agreement or material indenture by which Holdings or such other Borrower or the property of Holdings or such other Borrower is bound,
except where such violation specified in this clause (iii) would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any lien or encumbrance on any property or assets of Holdings or such other
Borrower except as provided herein. 
 This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Borrower and constitutes,
and each other Loan Document to which such Borrower is to be a party, when executed and delivered by such Borrower, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Borrower in each case enforceable in accordance with its terms,
subject to applicable Debtor Relief Laws and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

SECTION 10.3 Litigation; Proceedings. Except as set forth on Schedule 10.3 hereto, no action, suit, investigation
or proceeding is now pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings, threatened, against Holdings or any Subsidiary, at Law, in equity or otherwise, or with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, before any Governmental Authority, or before
any arbitrator or panel of arbitrators which would or might reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

SECTION 10.4 ERISA Compliance. 

(a) Holdings and each ERISA Affiliate have operated and administered each Plan in compliance with all applicable Laws except
for such instances of noncompliance as have not resulted in and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Holdings nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or the
penalty or excise Tax provisions of the Code relating to employee benefit plans (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA), and no event, transaction or condition has occurred or exists that would reasonably be expected to result in the incurrence of
any such liability by Holdings or any ERISA Affiliate, or in the imposition of any Lien on any of the rights, properties or assets of Holdings or any ERISA Affiliate, in either case pursuant to Title I or IV of ERISA or to such penalty or excise Tax
provisions or to Section 401(a)(29) or 412 of the Code, other than such liabilities or Liens as would not be individually or in the aggregate material in relation to the business, operations, affairs, financial condition, assets, or properties
of Holdings and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 
 (b) On the Closing Date, the present value of the aggregate benefit
liabilities under each of the Plans (other than Multiemployer Plans), determined as of January 1, 2022 on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in such Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation report, did not
exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities in the case of any single Plan or in the aggregate for all Plans, except as set forth in Holdings’ Form
10-K Annual Report for the Fiscal Year ending December 

  
 60 

 
31, 2021. The term “benefit liabilities” has the meaning specified in Section 4001 of ERISA and the terms “current value” and “present value” have the meanings
specified in Section 3 of ERISA. 
 (c) Holdings and its ERISA Affiliates have not incurred withdrawal liabilities (and
are not subject to contingent withdrawal liabilities) under section 4201 or 4204 of ERISA in respect of Multiemployer Plans that individually or in the aggregate are material in relation to the business, operations, affairs, financial condition,
assets, or properties of Holdings and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Neither Holdings nor any of its ERISA Affiliates is a participating employer of, or makes contributions to, a Multiple Employer Plan. 

(d) The expected post-retirement benefit obligation (determined as of the last day of Holdings’ most recently ended Fiscal
Year in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 106, without regard to liabilities attributable to continuation coverage mandated by section 4980B of the Code) of Holdings and its Subsidiaries is not material in
relation to the business, operations, affairs, financial condition, assets, or properties of Holdings and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 

(e) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the occurrence of any Credit Event hereunder will not involve any
transaction that is subject to the prohibitions of section 406 of ERISA or in connection with which a Tax could be imposed pursuant to section 4975(c)(1)(A)-(D) of the Code. 

SECTION 10.5 Financial Condition. The Consolidated audited financial statements of Holdings and its Subsidiaries
for the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2021, previously delivered to the Lenders, are true and complete (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a disclosure of all material contingent liabilities), have been prepared in
accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with those used during their next preceding Fiscal Year (except as noted therein) and fairly present their then financial condition and operations for the Fiscal Year then ending. Since
December 31, 2021, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, properties or business of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 

SECTION 10.6 Solvency. Each Borrower has received consideration which is the reasonable equivalent value of the
obligations and liabilities that such Borrower has incurred to the Lenders. No Borrower is insolvent as defined by any applicable state or federal Law, nor will any Borrower be rendered insolvent by the execution and delivery of this Agreement or
any Note or Guaranty to the Lenders. No Borrower is engaged or about to engage in any business or transaction for which the assets retained by it shall be an unreasonably small capital, taking into consideration the obligations to the Lenders
incurred hereunder. No Borrower intends to, nor does it believe that it will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay them as they mature. 

SECTION 10.7 Default. No Event of Default or Incipient Default exists hereunder, nor will any begin to exist
immediately after the execution and delivery hereof. 
 SECTION 10.8 Lawful Operations. The operations of
Holdings, the operations of each of the Subsidiaries and all Borrower Property are in full compliance with all requirements 

  
 61 

 
imposed by Law or regulation, whether federal, state or local including (without limitation) all Environmental Laws, occupational safety and health Laws and zoning ordinances except where the
noncompliance with any such Laws could not be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that this Section 10.8 shall not apply to any noncompliance if and to the extent that the same is being
contested in good faith by timely and appropriate proceedings which are effective to stay enforcement thereof and against which appropriate reserves have been established. 

SECTION 10.9 Investment Company Act Status. No Borrower is an “investment company” or a company
“controlled” by 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. 
 SECTION 10.10 Regulation G/Regulation U/Regulation X Compliance. No Borrower is engaged
principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying “margin stock”, (as defined by Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the
United States (as amended from time to time)) and all official rulings and interpretations thereunder or thereof and at no time shall more than 25% of the value of the assets of Holdings and its Consolidated Subsidiaries that are subject to any
“arrangement” (as such term is used in section 221.2(g) of Regulation U) be represented by “margin stock”. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, and whether immediately, incidentally or
ultimately, (i) to purchase or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing “margin stock” or to carry or to extend credit to others for the purpose of carrying stock which will be “margin stock” after giving
effect to the Loans, (ii) for any purpose that entails a violation of, or is inconsistent with, the provisions of the Regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States, including Regulation G, U or X, or

applicable to any party hereto or the (c) USA Patriot Act. 
 SECTION 10.11 Title to Properties. Each
Lincoln Party has good and marketable title to all assets reflected in such entity’s most recent financial statements referred to in Section 10.5, except for assets disposed of in the ordinary course of business since the date of such
financial statements. All such assets are free and clear of any mortgage, security interest or other Lien of any kind, other than any Liens permitted by this Agreement, except for those defects in title (as distinct from Liens) that, individually or
in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 10.12 Intellectual
Property. Each Lincoln Party owns or has the legal and valid right to use all intellectual property necessary for the operation of its business as presently conducted, free from any Lien not permitted under this Agreement and free of any
restrictions material to the operation of its business as presently conducted. 
 SECTION 10.13 Anti-Corruption Laws
and Sanctions; Anti-Terrorism Laws. The Lincoln Parties and their respective officers and employees and, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, their directors and agents, are in compliance in all material respects with
Anti-

  
 62 

 
Corruption Laws, applicable Sanctions and Anti-Terrorism Laws. Holdings has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance in all material
respects by the Lincoln Parties and their respective directors, officers, employees and (to the extent reasonably within their control) agents with Anti-Corruption Laws, applicable Sanctions and Anti-Terrorism Laws. None of (i) the Lincoln
Parties or any of their respective officers or employees, or (ii) to the knowledge of the Borrowers, any director or agent of a Lincoln Party that will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from this Agreement is a Sanctioned
Person.

percent (3%) of Consolidated Net Worth at such time and (B) $100,000,000 or (ii) defaults in the performance of any other agreement, term or condition contained in any promissory note, agreement or other instrument under which such Indebtedness
in an aggregate principal amount in excess of an amount equal to the greater of (A) three percent (3%) of Consolidated Net Worth at such time and (B) $100,000,000, is evidenced, created, constituted, secured or governed, in each case the effect
of which default is to cause, or to entitle or permit the holder or holders of such Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders) to cause, any such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity. 

SECTION 11.5 Termination of Plan or Creation of Withdrawal Liability. If (a) any Reportable Event occurs and
the Majority Lenders, in their sole determination, deem such Reportable Event to constitute grounds (i) for the termination of any Plan by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or (ii) for the appointment by the appropriate United
States district court of a trustee to administer any Plan and such Reportable Event shall not have been fully corrected or remedied to the full satisfaction of the Majority Lenders within thirty (30) days after giving of written notice of such
determination to the Borrowers by any Lender or (b) any Plan shall be terminated within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA (other than a Standard Termination, as that term is defined in Section 4041(b) of ERISA), or (c) a trustee shall
be appointed by the appropriate United States district court to administer any Plan, or (d) the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation shall institute proceedings to terminate any Plan or to appoint a trustee to administer any Plan or
(e) there occurs a withdrawal by Holdings or any Subsidiary from a Multiemployer Plan which results or may result in a withdrawal liability in an amount that is material in relation to the business, operations, affairs, financial condition,
assets, or properties of Holdings and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 
 SECTION 11.6 Validity of Agreements.
If this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document shall for any reason cease to be, or be asserted by Holdings, any other Borrower or any other party intended to be bound thereby (other than a Lender or the Agent) not to be, a legal, valid and
binding obligation of any party thereto (other than the Agent or any Lender) enforceable in accordance with its terms. 

SECTION 11.7 Solvency of Borrowers. If any Borrower shall (a) discontinue business (except in connection with
a transaction expressly permitted under Section 9.3, above), or (b) generally not pay its debts as such debts become due, or (c) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (d) apply for or consent to the
appointment of a receiver, a custodian, a trustee, an interim trustee or liquidator of all or a substantial part of its assets, or (e) be adjudicated a debtor or have entered against it an order for relief under any Debtor Relief Law, or

by default or otherwise) the material allegations of a petition filed against it in any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or other proceeding (whether federal or state) relating to relief of debtors, or (g) suffer or permit to continue
unstayed and in effect for thirty (30) consecutive days any judgment, decree or order entered by a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, which assumes custody or

excess of an amount equal to three percent (3%) of Consolidated Net Worth at such time (unless, in the determination of the Majority Lenders, the Borrowers shall have made adequate provision for the prompt payment thereof) shall be rendered against
one or more Borrowers, and the same shall remain undischarged for a period of 30 consecutive days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed, or (b) any action shall be legally taken by a judgment creditor to levy upon assets or
properties of a Borrower to enforce any judgment. 
 SECTION 11.9 Change in Control. If a Change in Control
shall occur. 
 ARTICLE 12 

REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT 

Notwithstanding any contrary provision or inference herein or elsewhere, 

SECTION 12.1 Optional Defaults. If any Event of Default referred to in any of Sections 11.1 through and
including 11.6, in clause (b) of Section 11.7, or in Section 11.8 or in Section 11.9 shall occur, the Majority Lenders, shall have the right in their discretion (i) by directing the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, to give
written notice to the Borrowers, to: 
 (1) terminate the Commitments hereby established, if not theretofore
terminated, and forthwith upon such election the obligations of the Lenders, and each thereof, to make any further loan or loans hereunder, and/or 

(2) accelerate the maturity of all of the Obligations to the Lenders and the Agent (if not already due and
payable), whereupon all of the Obligations to the Lenders and the Agent shall become and (including but not limited to the Notes) thereafter be immediately due and payable in full without any presentment or demand and without any further or other
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Borrower, and 
 (ii) to exercise (or cause the
Agent to exercise) such other rights and remedies as may be available hereunder, under the other Loan Documents, at law or in equity. 

SECTION 12.2 Automatic Defaults. If any Event of Default referred to in Section 11.7 (other than clause
(b) thereof) shall occur: 
 (1) all of the Commitments and the credits hereby established shall automatically and
forthwith terminate, if not theretofore terminated, and no Lender thereafter shall be under any obligation to grant any further loan or loans hereunder or otherwise effect any Credit Event, and 

(2) the outstanding principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on any Notes and all of the other Obligations to the Lenders
and the Agent shall thereupon become and thereafter be 

  
 65 

 
immediately due and payable in full (if not already due and payable), all without any presentment, demand or notice of any kind, which are hereby waived by each Borrower, and 

(3) subject to any applicable automatic stay or other restriction of Law, the Agent and the Lenders may exercise such other
rights and remedies as may be available hereunder, under the other Loan Documents, at law or in equity. 
 SECTION 12.3
Offsets. If there shall occur or exist any Event of Default or if the maturity of the Notes is accelerated pursuant to Section 12.1 or 12.2, each Lender shall have the right at any time to set off against, and to appropriate and apply
toward the payment of, any and all Indebtedness then owing by any Borrowers to that Lender (including, without limitation, any participation purchased or to be purchased pursuant to Section 12.4), whether or not the same shall then have
matured, any and all deposit balances and all other indebtedness then held or owing by that Lender to or for the credit or account of any Borrowers, all without notice to or demand upon the Borrowers or any other person, all such notices and demands
being hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers. 
 SECTION 12.4 Equalization of Advantage. Each Lender agrees
with the other Lenders that if it at any time shall obtain any Advantage over the other Lenders in respect of the Obligations to the Lenders (except under Section 3.7, 3.8, 3.9 or 15.4), it will purchase from the other Lenders, for cash and at
par, such additional participation in the Obligations to the Lenders as shall be necessary to nullify the Advantage. If any Advantage so resulting in the purchase of an additional participation shall be recovered in whole or in part from the Lender
receiving the Advantage, each such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price restored (but without interest unless the Lender receiving the Advantage is required to pay interest on the Advantage to the person recovering the Advantage from
such Lender) ratably to the extent of the recovery. Each Lender further agrees with the other Lenders that if it at any time shall receive any payment for or on behalf of any Borrowers on any indebtedness owing by the Borrowers to that Lender by
reason of offset of any deposit or other indebtedness, it will apply such payment first to any and all indebtedness owing by such Borrowers to that Lender pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, any participation purchased or to
be purchased pursuant to this Section 12.4) until the Obligations have been paid in full. The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from the other Lenders pursuant to this Section may exercise all its rights of payment
(including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of any Borrowers in the amount of such participation. 

SECTION 12.5 Application of Remedy Proceeds. All monies received by the Agent and the Lenders from the exercise of
remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or under any other documents relating to this Agreement or at Law shall, unless otherwise required by the terms of the other Loan Documents or by applicable Law, be applied as follows: 

first, to the payment of all expenses (to the extent not paid by the Borrowers) incurred by the Agent or the Lenders in
connection with the exercise of such remedies, including, without limitation, all reasonable costs and expenses of collection, attorneys’ fees, court costs and any foreclosure expenses; 

  
 66 

 second, to the payment of any fees then accrued and payable to the
Lenders or the Agent under this Agreement in respect of the Loans; 
 third, to the payment of interest then accrued
on the outstanding Loans; 
 fourth, to the payment of the principal balance then owing on the outstanding Loans;

 fifth, to the payment of all other amounts owed by the Borrowers to the Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document; and 
 finally, any remaining surplus after all of the Obligations have been paid in
full, to the Borrowers or to whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled thereto. 
 ARTICLE 13 

THE AGENT 

SECTION 13.1 The Agent. Each Lender irrevocably appoints PNC to be its Agent with full authority to take such
actions, and to exercise such powers, on behalf of the Lenders in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are therein respectively delegated to the Agent or as are reasonably incidental to those delegated powers. PNC in such
capacity shall be deemed to be an independent contractor of the Lenders. For the purposes of this Article 13, “Lender” shall include any Lender. 

SECTION 13.2 Nature of Appointment. The Agent shall have no fiduciary relationship with any Lender by reason of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether an Incipient Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility whatsoever to any Lender except those expressly set forth
in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender acknowledges that the Agent is acting as such solely as a convenience to the Lenders and not as a manager of the commitments or the
Obligations evidenced by the Notes. This Article 13 does not confer any rights upon the Borrowers or anyone else (except the Lenders), whether as a third party beneficiary or otherwise. 

SECTION 13.3 PNC as a Lender; Other Transactions. PNC’s rights as a Lender under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents shall not be affected by its serving as the Agent. PNC and its affiliates may generally transact any banking, financial, trust, advisory or other business with Holdings or its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, the
acceptance of deposits, the extension of credit and the acceptance of fiduciary appointments) without notice to the Lenders, without accounting to the Lenders, and without prejudice to PNC’s rights as a Lender under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents except as may be expressly required under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 13.4 Instructions from
Lenders. The Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action as to matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, collection and enforcement actions in
respect of any Obligations under the Notes or this Agreement and any collateral therefor) except that the Agent shall take such action (or omit to take such action) other than actions referred to in Section 15.1, as may be reasonably
requested of it in writing by the Majority Lenders with 

  
 67 

 
instructions and which actions and omissions shall be binding upon all the Lenders; provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to act (or omit any act) if, in its
judgment, any such action or omission might expose the Agent to personal liability or might be contrary to this Agreement, any other Loan Documents or any applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of
the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law. 

SECTION 13.5 Lenders’ Diligence. Each Lender (a) represents and warrants that it has made
its decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (b) agrees that it will make its own decision as to taking or not taking future actions in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; in each case without
reliance on the Agent or any other Lender and on the basis of its independent credit analysis and its independent examination of and inquiry into such documents and other matters as it deems relevant and material. 

SECTION 13.6 No Implied Representations. The Agent shall not be liable for any representation, warranty, agreement
or obligation of any kind of any other party to this Agreement or anyone else, whether made or implied by Holdings or any other Borrower in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by a Lender in any notice or other communication or by anyone
else or otherwise. 
 SECTION 13.7 Sub-Agents. The Agent may employ
agents and shall not be liable (except as to money or property received by it or its agents) for any negligence or misconduct of any such agent selected by it with reasonable care. The Agent may consult with legal counsel, certified public
accountants and other experts of its choosing (including, without limitation, PNC’s salaried employees or any otherwise not independent) and shall not be liable for any action or inaction taken or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with
the advice of any such counsel, accountants or other experts which shall have been selected by it with reasonable care. 

SECTION 13.8 Agent’s Diligence. The Agent shall not be required (a) to keep itself
informed as to anyone’s compliance with any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) to make any inquiry into the properties, financial condition or operation of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any other matter
relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (c) to report to any Lender any information (other than which this Agreement or any other Loan Document expressly requires to be so reported) that the Agent or any of its affiliates may
have or acquire in respect of the properties, business or financial condition of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any other matter relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (d) to inquire into the validity, effectiveness or
genuineness of this Agreement or other Loan Document. 
 SECTION 13.9 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be
deemed to have knowledge of any Incipient Default or Event of Default unless and until it shall have received a written notice describing it and citing the relevant provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Agent shall give each
Lender reasonably prompt notice of any such written notice except to any Lender that shall have given the written notice. 

  
 68 

 SECTION 13.10 Agent’s Liability. Neither the
Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees, attorneys, and other agents shall be liable for any action or omission on their respective parts except for gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the
foregoing, the Agent: (i) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Agent receives a fully executed copy of the assignment agreement required by Section 14.1(b) signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the
Agent and the fee required by Section 14.1(c); (ii) may consult with legal counsel, 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 or such counsel, accountants or experts which have been selected by the Agent with reasonable care; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any
statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, the truth of the statements made in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of the Borrowers under
Article 6 or any Notice of Borrowing, Rate Continuation/Conversion Request or any other similar notice or delivery, the Agent being entitled for the purposes of determining fulfillment of the conditions set forth therein to rely conclusively upon
such certificates; (iv) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, shall not have any duty to disclose, or shall be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries that is
communicated to or obtained by the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; (v) 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 this Agreement, the
Notes or any other Loan Document or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of Holdings or any Subsidiaries; (vi) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,
sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any collateral covered by any agreement or any other Loan Document and (vii) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice,
consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram, telecopy, cable, telex or email) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. 

Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall have any responsibility to the Borrowers on
account of the failure of or delay in performance or breach by any Lender of any of its obligations hereunder or to any Lender on account of the failure of or delay in performance or breach by any other Lender or the Borrowers of any of their
respective obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith. 
 The Lenders
each hereby acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to
do so by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 15.1). 

SECTION 13.11 Compensation. The Agent shall receive no compensation for its services as agent of the Lenders in
respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Document, except as otherwise expressly agreed between the Borrowers and the Agent, but the Borrowers shall reimburse the Agent periodically on its demand for out-of-pocket expenses, if any, 

  
 69 

 
reasonably incurred by it as such and as to which Agent has delivered to the Borrowers’ reasonable substantiation. 

SECTION 13.12 Agent’s Indemnity. The Lenders shall indemnify the Agent (to the extent the Agent
is not reimbursed by the Borrowers) from and against (a) any loss or liability (other than any caused by the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct and other than any loss to the Agent resulting from the Borrowers’ non-payment of administrative fees owed solely to the Agent) incurred by the Agent as such in respect of this Agreement, the Notes, or other Loan Document (as the Agent) and (b) any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in defending itself or otherwise related to this Agreement, the Notes, or other Loan Documents (other than any caused by the Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct) including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel of its own selection (including, without limitation, the reasonable interdepartmental charges of its salaried attorneys) in the
defense of any claim against it or in the prosecution of its rights and remedies as the Agent (other than the loss, liability or costs incurred by the Agent in the defense of any claim against it by the Lenders arising in connection with its actions
in its capacity as Agent); provided, however, that each Lender shall be liable for only its Ratable Portion of the whole loss or liability. 

SECTION 13.13 Resignation. The Agent (or any successor) may at any time resign as such by giving thirty
(30) days’ prior written notice to the Borrowers and to each Lender; and the Majority Lenders may remove the Agent at any time with or without cause by giving written notice to the Agent and the Borrowers. In any such case, the Majority
Lenders shall appoint a successor to the resigned or removed agent (the “Former Agent”), provided that the Majority Lenders obtain the Borrowers’ prior written consent to the successor (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld), by giving written notice to the Borrowers, the Former Agent and each Lender not participating in the appointment; provided, however, that, if at the time of the proposed resignation or removal of an Agent, any Borrower is
the subject of an action referred to in Section 11.7 or any other Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrowers’ consent shall not be required. In the absence of a timely appointment, the Former Agent shall have the
right (but not the duty) to make a temporary appointment of any Lender (but only with that Lender’s consent) to act as its successor pending an appointment pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. In either case, the successor Agent
shall deliver its written acceptance of appointment to the Borrowers, to each Lender and to the Former Agent, whereupon (a) the Former Agent shall execute and deliver such assignments and other writings as the successor Agent may reasonably
require to facilitate its being and acting as the Agent, (b) the successor Agent shall in any event automatically acquire and assume all the rights and duties as those prescribed for the Agent by this Article 13, and (c) the Former Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 13.14
Lender Purpose. Each Lender represents and warrants to the Agent, the other Lenders and the Borrowers that such Lender is familiar with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder and is not entering into
this Agreement with any intention to violate such Act or any rule or regulation thereunder. Subject to the provisions of Sections 14.1, 14.2 and 14.3, each Lender shall at all times retain full control over the disposition of its assets subject only
to this Agreement and to all applicable Law. 

  
 70 

 SECTION 13.15 No Reliance on Agent’s Customer
Identification Program. Each of the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or
assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or
replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Corruption Law, Sanctions Law or Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Borrowers, their Affiliates
or their agents, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (i) any identity verification procedures, (ii) any record keeping, (iii) comparisons with government lists,
(iv) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws. 

SECTION 13.16 Erroneous Payments. 

(a) If the Agent notifies a Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender (any such Lender or other
recipient of funds, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under the immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment
Recipient from the Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such
funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion
thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Agent, and such Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient
who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Banking Days thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a
demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such
amount is repaid to the Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Fed Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Agent to any
Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (b) Without limiting the
immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender such Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or
repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment
sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or
(z) that such Lender or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case: 

  
 71 

 (i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses
(x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such
payment, prepayment or repayment; and 
 (ii) such Lender shall (and shall cause any other recipient that
receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Banking Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and
that it is so notifying the Agent pursuant to this Section 13.16(b). 
 (c) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to
set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Agent to such Lender from any source, against any amount due to the Agent under immediately preceding
clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. 
 (d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or
portion thereof) is not recovered by the Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any
Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time,
(i) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return
Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid
interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrowers) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment Agreement as to which the Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to
such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrowers or the Agent, (ii) the Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency
Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder with
respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or
and (iv) the Agent may reflect in its internal books and records its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous
Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Agent
shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of
any Lender and such Commitments 

  
 72 

 
shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof)
acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender under the Loan
Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”). 

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any
Obligations owed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Agent from any
Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment. 
 (f) To the extent permitted by
applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with
respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. 

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 13.16 shall survive the resignation or
replacement of the Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan
Document. 
 ARTICLE 14 

ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS 

SECTION 14.1 Assignments. 

(a) Assignments by Borrowers Prohibited. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such

of all of the Lenders and the Agent. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Each Lender may assign all or any part of any of
its Term Loans and its Note with the consent of Holdings and the Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that (i) no such consent by Holdings shall be required (A) for any such assignment by any Lender to
an Affiliate of such Lender or to another Lender or an Affiliate of another Lender, or (B) if, at the time of such assignment, an Event of Default or Incipient Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) any such partial assignment shall
be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000, unless such partial assignment is to another Lender; (iii) each such assignment shall be made by a Lender in such manner that the same portion of its Term Loans and its Note is assigned to the
assignee; and (iv) the assignee, if not already a Lender, shall agree to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to an Assignment Agreement in the form of Exhibit F hereto, including, without limitation, an Administrative Questionnaire as a
supplement thereto in the form of Exhibit G hereto. Upon execution and delivery by the

assignor and the assignee to the Borrowers and the Agent of an instrument in writing pursuant to which such assignee agrees to become a “Lender” hereunder (if not already a Lender)
having the share of the Total Commitment Amount (if still in existence) and Loans specified in such instrument, and upon consent thereto by the Agent and Holdings (to the extent, if any, required), the assignee shall have, to the extent of such
assignment (unless otherwise provided in such assignment with the consent of the Agent), the obligations, rights and benefits of a Lender hereunder holding the share of the Total Commitment Amount (if still in existence) and Loans (or portions
thereof) assigned to it (in addition to the share of the Total Commitment Amount (if still in existence) and Loans, if any, theretofore held by such assignee); and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, be released from the
share of the Total Commitment Amount (if still in existence) and Loans and the obligations hereunder so assigned. 
 (c)
Procedures. Upon its receipt of an assignment pursuant to Section 14.1(b) above duly executed by an assigning Lender and the assignee, together with any Note subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, the
Agent shall, if such assignment has been completed, accept such assignment. Within five (5) Banking Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrowers, at the Borrowers’ expense, shall execute and deliver to the Agent in exchange for each
surrendered Note a new Note to the order of the assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by the assignee and, if the assigning Lender has retained a portion of its Commitment, a new Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount
equal to the share of its Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such assignment, shall
otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, and, upon such execution and delivery shall be a “Note” under this Agreement. Canceled Notes shall be returned to Holdings on behalf of the Borrowers. 

(d) Additional Restriction on Assignment. Anything in this Section 14.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, except
pursuant to this Agreement, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates without the prior written consent of each Lender. 

(e) Failure to Comply. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does
not comply with this Section 14.1 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 14.2. 

(f) Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, (i) except to the extent
otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender; and (ii) no
assignment hereunder shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this sentence. In connection with any assignment
of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to
the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating

  
 74 

 
actions, including funding, with the consent of Holdings and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the
applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (i) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and
(y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full proportionate share of all Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder
shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 

SECTION 14.2 Participations. A Lender may sell or agree to sell to one or more other Persons (each a
“Participant”) a participation in all or any part of any Term Loans held by it, or in its Commitment (if still in existence). Except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this Section 14.2, no Participant shall have any rights
or benefits under this Agreement or any Note or any other Loan Documents (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreements executed by such Lender in favor of the
Participant). All amounts payable by the Borrowers to any Lender under this Agreement, and in respect of its Commitment (if still in existence), shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold or agreed to sell any participations in such Term
Loans and share of Commitment (if still in existence), and as if such Lender were funding each of such Term Loans and its share of such Commitment (if still in existence) in the same way that it is funding the portion of such Term Loans and its
Commitment (if still in existence) in which no participations have been sold. In no event shall a Lender that sells a participation agree with the Participant (other than an Affiliate of such Lender) to take or refrain from taking any action
hereunder or under any other Loan Document, except that such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any modification, supplement or waiver hereof or of any of the Loan Documents to
the extent that the same, under Section 15.1 hereof, requires the consent of each Lender. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.7 through 3.9, inclusive, and Section 12.3 (but,
(i) only to the extent that the selling Lender is entitled to such benefits and (ii) as to any sums realized thereunder, subject to Section 12.4) with respect to its participating interest. 

SECTION 14.3 Permitted Pledges. In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing
provisions of this Article 13, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Term Loans and its Note to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and
any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder. 

SECTION 14.4 Furnishing of Borrower Information. A Lender may furnish any information concerning Holdings and its
Subsidiaries in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including, with the prior written consent of Holdings, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, prospective assignees and
participants, provided that no such consent shall be required upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default).

 ARTICLE 15 

MISCELLANEOUS 

SECTION 15.1 Amendments, Consents. No amendment, modification, termination, or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or of the Notes, nor consent to any variance therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Lenders (and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which given); provided, however, that the consent of each Lender affected directly thereby shall be required with respect to any amendment, modification, termination, or waiver which would effect: 

(i) the extension of maturity of any Loan or Note of such Lender, or of the payment date of interest, principal and/or fees
thereunder or hereunder, or 
 (ii) any reduction in the rate of interest on any Loan or Note of such Lender, or in any
amount of principal or interest due on any Loan or Note of such Lender or in the rate or amount of fees payable to such Lender pursuant to Section 3.4; provided that the waiver of interest at the Increased Rate during an Event of Default
shall not be construed to be an amendment, modification or waiver covered by this clause (ii); or 
 (iii) any change in the
manner of pro rata application of any payments made by the Borrowers to the Lenders hereunder, or 
 (iv) any change in any
percentage voting requirement in this Agreement, or 
 (v) any increase in the dollar amount or percentage of such
Lender’s Commitment without such Lender’s written consent, or 
 (vi) any change in amount or timing of any fees
payable to such Lender under this Agreement, or 
 (vii) any release of any portion of collateral, if any, other than in
accordance with this Agreement, or any release of any Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents, or 
 (viii)
any change in any provision of this Agreement which requires all of the Lenders to take any action under such provision or 

(ix) any change in Section 12.4, Section 12.5, Section 14.1(a) or this Section 15.1 itself. 

By way of clarification and not limitation, all of the Lenders shall be deemed to be affected directly by the matters described in each of
clauses (iii), (iv), (vii), (viii) and (ix), above. 
 Notice of amendments or consents ratified by the Lenders hereunder shall immediately
be forwarded by the Borrowers to all Lenders. Each Lender or other holder of a Note shall be 

  
 76 

 
bound by any amendment, waiver or consent obtained as authorized by this section, regardless of its failure to agree thereto. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the Majority Lenders enter into or consent to any waiver, amendment or modification
pursuant to this Section 15.1, no consent of any other Lender will be required if, when such waiver, amendment or modification becomes effective, (A) the Commitment of each Lender not consenting thereto terminates and (B) all amounts
owing to it or accrued for its account hereunder are paid in full; (ii) no such waiver, amendment or modification shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any of the Agent without its prior written consent; and
(iii) if any Lender does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of such Lender and that has been approved by the Majority Lenders, the Borrowers may replace
such non-consenting Lender in accordance with Section 15.15; provided that such amendment, waiver, consent or release can be effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by such Section
(together with all other such assignments required by the Borrowers to be made pursuant to this paragraph). 

SECTION 15.2 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No omission or course of dealing on the part of Agent, any Lender or
the holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and in addition to any other rights, powers or privileges held by operation of Law, by contract or otherwise. 

SECTION 15.3 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications provided for hereunder to a party
hereto shall be in writing and shall be mailed or delivered to such party (including, without limitation, delivery by facsimile transmission), addressed to such party at its address specified on Schedule 1 hereto or at such other address as such
party may from time to time specify in writing to the other parties hereto. All notices, statements, requests, demands and other communications provided for hereunder shall be deemed to be given or made when delivered or forty-eight (48) hours

hereof, including, without limitation, Articles 3, 4, 5 and 6 hereof, shall not be effective until received by Agent or the Lenders.

Documents and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for
the Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Agent as to its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such costs and expenses shall include: (i) reasonable and
documented attorneys’ and paralegals’ costs, expenses and disbursements of counsel to the Agent; (ii) extraordinary expenses of Agent in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the Notes, any other Loan Document and the

reasonable attorneys and paralegal costs, expenses and disbursements) for any amendment, supplement, waiver, consent, or subsequent closing in connection with this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated
thereby; (v) sums paid or incurred by the Agent to pay any amount or take any action required of the Borrowers under this Agreement, the Notes or any Loan Document that the Borrowers fail to pay or take; (vi) the cost of any appraisal,
survey, environmental audit or the retention of any other professional service or consultant commenced after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default and deemed reasonably necessary by the Agent; (vii) costs of inspections and
periodic review of the records of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, travel, lodging, and meals for inspections of Holdings’ and its Subsidiaries’ operations by the Agent at any time after the occurrence

defend any claims made or threatened against the Agent arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation, preparations for and consultations concerning any such matters). The Borrowers further agree to pay on demand
all costs and expenses of each Lender, if any (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), in connection with the restructuring or the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement, the Notes, any
other Loan Document and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses in connection with the enforcement of rights under this Section 15.4. The foregoing shall not be
construed to limit any other provisions of this Agreement, the Notes, or any other Loan Documents regarding costs and expenses to be paid by the Borrowers. All of the foregoing costs and expenses may be charged, in the Agent’s sole discretion,
to the Borrowers’ loan accounts as Term Loans (notwithstanding existence of any Incipient Default or Event of Default or the failure of the conditions of Article 7 to have been satisfied). 

(a) Without duplication of sums owing under Section 15.4(a) above, each Borrower shall indemnify each of the Lender
Parties, their respective Affiliates and the respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of such Lender Party and its Affiliates (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless
from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a
result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by any of the Lincoln Parties party to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or

 78 

 
Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that (I) such indemnity shall not be available to any Indemnitee to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related
expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; (II) such indemnity shall not be available to any Indemnitee
for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses arising out of a proceeding in which such Indemnitee and any Borrower are adverse parties to the extent that any Borrower prevails on the merits, as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction (it being understood that nothing in this Agreement shall preclude a claim or suit by such Borrower against any Indemnitee for such Indemnitee’s failure to perform any of its obligations to such Borrower under the Loan Documents);
(III) the Borrowers shall not, in connection with any such proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction and in the absence of conflicts of interest or differing interests among the Indemnitees, be liable for the fees and expenses of
more than one law firm at any one time for the Indemnitees (which law firm (or, if applicable, law firms) shall be selected (A) by mutual agreement of the Majority Lenders (or, if applicable, such respective interested Indemnitees) and the
Borrowers or (B) if no such agreement has been reached following the Lenders’ (or, if applicable, such interested Indemnitees) good faith consultation with the Borrowers with respect thereto, by the Majority Lenders (or, if applicable,
such respective interested Indemnitees) in their sole discretion); (IV) each Indemnitee shall give such Borrower (A) prompt notice of any such action brought against such Indemnitee in connection with a claim for which it is entitled to
indemnity under this Section and (B) an opportunity to consult from time to time with such Indemnitee regarding defensive measures and potential settlement; and (V) the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay the amount of any settlement
entered into without their written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Agent under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent, such Lender’s Ratable Share (determined as of the time that the
applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted
against such Agent in its capacity as such. 
 (c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower shall not assert,
and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this
Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
 (d) All amounts
payable under this Section shall be due within ten (10) Banking Days after written demand therefor. 

SECTION 15.5 Obligations Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint. Nothing
contained in this Agreement and no action taken by Agent or the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders to be a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. No default by any Lender hereunder shall excuse the
other Lenders from any obligation under this Agreement; but no Lender shall have or acquire any additional obligation of any kind by reason of such default. 

  
 79

authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any
other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words
“execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic
Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same
legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Agent to accept
Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (x) to the extent the Agent has agreed to accept any
Electronic Signature, the Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrowers or the Guarantors, as applicable, without further verification thereof and without any
obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic signature and (y) upon the request of the Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the

this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper
document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record), (C) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect,
validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including
with respect to any signature pages thereto and (D) waives any claim against any Affiliate of Agent or any Lender for any liabilities arising solely from the Agent’s and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures
and/or transmissions by 

  
 80 

 
telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Borrowers
and/or any Guarantor to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature. 

SECTION 15.7 Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by
the Borrowers, Agent and by each Lender and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers and each of the Lenders and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the Borrowers shall not have the right

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Term Loans, accrued interest
thereon, accrued fees and all other Obligations then owing to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.3(d)) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and
fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts); 
 (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim
for compensation under Section 3.7, 3.8 or 3.9 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.7, 3.8 or 3.9, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and 

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws. 

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or
otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

SECTION 15.16 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial
Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution
arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities
arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and 
 (b) the
effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such
Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect
to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 
 (iii) the variation of the terms
of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority. 

  
 84 

 SECTION 15.17 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In
connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the
arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between such Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Lenders and their
Affiliates, on the other hand, (B) such Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) such Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the
terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Lenders and their Affiliates is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by
the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for such Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to such Borrower
or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except, in the case of a Lender, those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) each of the Lenders and their respective
Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of such Borrower and its Affiliates, and no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to such
Borrower or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against each of the Lenders and their Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or
fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. 
 SECTION 15.18
Acknowledgement Regarding any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any hedge agreement or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit
Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of
the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below
applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): 

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a
proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property
securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and
any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S.
Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent

  
 85 

 
than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the
United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or
any QFC Credit Support. 
 (b) As used in this Section 15.18, the following terms have the following meanings: 

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and
interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party. 
 “Covered Entity” means any of
the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12
C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). 

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance
with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. 
 “QFC” has the meaning
assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D). 

ARTICLE 16 
 JOINT AND SEVERAL 

SECTION 16.1 Joint and Several. The Borrowers agree and acknowledge that their liability to pay all Loans and to
perform all other Obligations under this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which they are a party is and shall be joint and several. No Borrower shall have any right of subrogation, reimbursement or similar right in respect of its payment of
any sum or its performance of any other obligation hereunder unless and until all Obligations have been paid in full and the Lenders and the Agent have no further obligation hereunder. In addition, each Borrower confirms that upon each Credit Event,
it will have received adequate consideration and reasonably equivalent value for the Indebtedness incurred and other agreements made in the Loan Documents. No Borrower could reasonably expect to obtain financing separately on terms as favorable as
those provided for herein. 
 SECTION 16.2 Obligations Absolute. The Obligations of each Borrower hereunder
shall be valid and enforceable and, except as expressly provided herein, shall not be subject to limitation, impairment or discharge for any reason (other than the payment in full of the Obligations), including, without limitation, the occurrence of
any failure to assert or enforce or agreement not to assert or enforce any claim or demand of any right power or remedy with respect to the Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any guaranty thereof or security therefor
or any other act or thing or omission which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Borrower as an obligor in respect of the Obligations; and each Borrower hereby waives (i) any defense based upon any statute or rule
of law or equity to the effect that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal, and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted

  
 86 

 
by law, any defenses or benefits which may be derived from or afforded by law or equity which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with terms of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 16.3 Limitations. 

(a) If the Obligations of a Borrower would be held or determined by a court or tribunal having competent jurisdiction to be
void, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of its aggregate liability under this Agreement or the Notes, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Notes to the contrary, the aggregate amount of the liability of
such Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes shall, without any further action by such Borrower, the Lenders, the Agent or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to an amount which is valid and enforceable. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall
exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged or otherwise received by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan
hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the
operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such Lender shall have received such cumulated
amount, together with interest thereon at the Fed Funds Rate to the date of payment. 
 (b) Without limiting the generality
of paragraph (a), above, each Borrower and the Agent and each Lender, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that none of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under
any Debtor Relief Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyances Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or similar state statute applicable to the Loan Documents. Therefore, such parties agree that the Obligations of a Borrower shall be limited to such
maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Borrower that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or
payments made by or on behalf of the other Borrowers and any other obligor, result in the Obligations not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

(c) The provisions of this Section 16.3 are intended solely to preserve the rights of Lenders and the Agent hereunder to
the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, and neither a Borrower nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under such provisions that would not otherwise be available under applicable Law.
