 (iii) Any Money Market Quote shall be disregarded if it: 
 (A) is not substantially in conformity with Exhibit E hereto or does not specify all of the information required by
subsection (d)(ii); 
 (B) contains qualifying, conditional or similar language; 
 (C) proposes terms other than or in addition to those set forth in the applicable Invitation for Money Market Quotes; or

 (D) arrives after the time set forth in subsection (d)(i). 
 (e) Notice to Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of the terms (x) of any Money Market Quote
submitted by a Bank that is in accordance with subsection (d), and (y) of any Money Market Quote that amends, modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a previous Money Market Quote submitted by such Bank with respect to the same Money
Market Quote Request. Any such subsequent Money Market Quote shall be disregarded by the Administrative Agent unless such subsequent Money Market Quote is submitted solely to correct a manifest error in such former Money Market Quote. The
Administrative Agent’s notice to the Borrower shall specify (A) the aggregate principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers have been received for each Interest Period specified in the related Money Market Quote Request,
(B) the respective principal amounts and Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as the case may be, so offered and (C) if applicable, limitations on the aggregate principal amount of Money Market Loans for which offers in any
single Money Market Quote may be accepted.

Absolute Rate Borrowing (or, in any case, such other time or date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall have mutually agreed and shall have notified the Banks not later than the date
of the Money Market Quote Request for the first Margin Auction or Absolute Rate Auction for which such change is to be effective), the Borrower shall (on behalf of itself or the applicable Co-Borrower) notify the Administrative Agent of its
acceptance or non acceptance of the offers so notified to it pursuant to subsection (e). In the case of acceptance, such notice (a “Notice of Money Market Borrowing”) shall specify the aggregate principal amount (in the applicable
currency) of offers for each Interest Period that are accepted. The Borrower (on behalf of itself or the applicable Co-Borrower) may accept any Money Market Quote in whole or in part; provided that: 
 (i) the aggregate principal amount of each Money Market Borrowing may not exceed the applicable amount set forth in the
related Money Market Quote Request, 
 (ii) the principal amount of each Money Market Borrowing must be
(1) $10,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000, or (2) if such Money Market Loan is denominated in a currency other than Dollars, the Dollar Equivalent amount of the amounts determined under clause (1), 
 (iii) acceptance of offers may only be made on the basis of ascending Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as
the case may be, 
 (iv) the Borrower may not accept any offer that is described in subsection (d)(iii) or
that otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of this Agreement, and 
 (v) after giving effect to each
Money Market Borrowing, the aggregate Credit Exposure of the Lenders shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments. 
 (g)
Allocation by Administrative Agent. If offers are made by two or more Banks with the same Money Market Margins or Money Market Absolute Rates, as the case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which such
offers are accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal amount of Money Market Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such Banks as nearly as possible (in multiples of
$1,000,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent), as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate) in proportion to the aggregate principal amounts of such offers. Determinations by the Administrative Agent of the amounts of Money Market Loans shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 Section 2.4 Notice to Banks; Funding of Loans. 
 (a) Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the contents thereof and of such
Bank’s share (if any) of such Borrowing and such Notice of Borrowing shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower. 
  

 23 

 (b) Not later than (x) 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of each Domestic
Borrowing, or (y) 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date of each Alternate Currency Borrowing, each Bank participating therein shall (except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section) make available its share of such Borrowing to
the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of each Domestic Borrowing, at such location in New York City as specified on Schedule 1 or otherwise specified from time to time by the Administrative Agent (the “Domestic Funding Office”), or
(ii) in the case of each Alternate Currency Borrowing, at such location in London as specified on Schedule 1 or otherwise specified from time to time by the Administrative Agent (the “Alternate Currency Funding Office”), in each case
in funds immediately available at such location. Unless the Administrative Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in Article 3 has not been satisfied, the Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from the Banks
available to the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid location. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, any Bank may cause its Alternate Currency Loans to be made by any branch
affiliate or international banking facility of such Bank, provided, that such Bank shall remain responsible for all of its obligations hereunder and no additional taxes, costs or other burdens shall be imposed upon the Borrowers or the
Administrative Agent as a result thereof. 
 (c) If any Bank makes a new Loan to the Borrower or any Co-Borrower in a particular
currency on a day on which the Borrower or such Co-Borrower, as the case may be, is to repay all or any part of an outstanding Loan from such Bank in the same currency, such Bank shall apply the proceeds of its new Loan to make such repayment and
only an amount equal to the difference (if any) between the amount being borrowed by the Borrower or such Co-Borrower, as the case may be, and the amount being repaid by the same Person shall be made available by such Bank to the Administrative
Agent as provided in subsection (b), or remitted by the Borrower or such Co-Borrower, as the case may be, to the Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.12, as the case may be. 
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Bank will not make
available to the Administrative Agent such Bank’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such share available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with
subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 2.4 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent
that such Bank shall not have so made such share available to the Administrative Agent within three (3) Business Days of the Borrowing, such Bank and the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative
Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount (in the applicable currency) together with interest (in the applicable currency) thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower until the date such
amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower, a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of Domestic Borrowings, the higher of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and the
interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.7, or (y) in the case of Alternate Currency Borrowings the interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.7, and (ii) in the case of such Bank (x) in the case of
Domestic Borrowings, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, or (y) in the case of Alternate Currency Borrowings, the interest rate applicable thereto

  

 24 

 
pursuant to Section 2.7. If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Loan included in such
Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 2.4(d) shall not relieve any Bank of responsibility for its obligations under this Agreement or any default in the performance thereof. 
 Section 2.5 Evidence of Debt. 
 (a) Each Bank shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to the appropriate lending office of such Bank resulting from each
Loan made by such lending office of such Bank from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Bank from time to time under this Agreement. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to subsection 9.6(c), and a subaccount for each Bank, in which
Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the type of each Loan made and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or
to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Bank hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Bank’s share thereof. 
 (c) The entries made in the Register and accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subsection 2.5 shall,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrowers therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank or the Administrative Agent to maintain such
account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrowers by such Bank in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement. 
 Section 2.6 Maturity of Loans. Each Loan shall mature, and the principal amount thereof
shall be due and payable, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to thereto. 
 Section 2.7 Interest
Rates. (a) Committed Base Rate Loans. Each Committed Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Loan is made until it becomes due, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of
the Applicable Percentage plus Base Rate for such day. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof. 
 (b) Committed Eurocurrency Loans. Subject to Section 8.1(a), each Eurocurrency Loan made pursuant to Section 2.1 shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest
Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Percentage plus the applicable Eurocurrency Rate. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is
longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first day thereof. 
  

 25 

 (c) Money Market Loans. Subject to Section 8.1(a), each Money Market Margin Auction
Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period (determined in accordance with
Section 2.7(b) as if the related Money Market Margin Auction Borrowing were a Committed Euro-Dollar Borrowing) plus (or minus) the Money Market Margin quoted by the Bank making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.3). Each Money Market
Absolute Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the Money Market Absolute Rate quoted by the Bank making such Loan in accordance with
Section 2.3. All such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first day thereof. 
 (d) Limitation on Eurocurrency Borrowings. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall not be
permitted to request (on behalf of itself or any Co-Borrower) Eurocurrency Loans pursuant to any Notice of Committed Borrowing, and any then pending Notice of Committed Borrowing for Eurocurrency Loans shall automatically, and without further action
by any party hereto, constitute a Notice of Committed Borrowing for Committed Base Rate Loans. 
 (e) Default Interest.
Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement, effective immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and for as long thereafter as such Event of
Default shall be continuing, the principal balance of all Loans and the amount of all other Obligations then due and payable shall bear interest at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest applicable to such Loans or other
Obligations from time to time. Such interest shall be payable on the date that would otherwise be applicable to such interest pursuant to clause (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 2.7, as applicable, or otherwise on demand. 

(f) Determination of Rates. The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder. The
Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the participating Banks of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 Section 2.8 Fees. 
 (a) Facility Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks ratably a facility fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage. Such facility fee shall
accrue (i) from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Maturity Date, on the daily average aggregate amount of the Commitments (whether used or unused) and (ii) from and including the Maturity Date to but excluding the date
that there shall no longer be any Credit Exposure, on the daily average aggregate Credit Exposure of all Banks. 
 (b) LC Fees.
The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit,

  

 26 

 
which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage on the average daily amount of such Bank’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed
LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Bank’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Bank ceases to have any LC Exposure and (ii) to each
Issuing Bank for its own account (1) a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank on the average daily aggregate undrawn amount of such Issuing Bank’s
Letters of Credit (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements in respect thereof) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and
the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, and (2) such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit issued by it or processing of drawings thereunder.

 (c) Payments. Accrued fees under this Section (other than fees payable under Section 2.8(b)(ii)(2) and
Section 2.8(d)), shall be payable quarterly on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof and upon each reduction of the Commitments;
provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any fees payable under Section 2.8(b)(ii)(2)
shall be payable within ten days after demand and any fees payable under Section 2.8(d) shall be payable pursuant to such separate agreement between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. 
 (d) Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such fees as from time to time may be separately agreed between the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Defaulting Lenders. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such
period that a Bank is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to Section 2.8(a) in respect of such Defaulting Lender’s unfunded Commitment (without prejudice to the
rights of the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees). 
 Section 2.9 Optional Termination,
Reduction or Increase of Commitments. (a) During the Revolving Credit Period, the Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and each Co-Borrower (i) terminate the
Commitments at any time, if there is no Credit Exposure at such time or (ii) ratably reduce from time to time by an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, the aggregate amount of the
Commitments in excess of the aggregate Credit Exposure. In addition, the Borrower may (on behalf of itself or any Co-Borrower) terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than ten (10) Business Days’
prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim any of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or
any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. 
  

 27 

 (b) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time on or prior to the Business Day
immediately preceding the Maturity Date and so long as no Default or Event of Default is then continuing, at its sole cost and expense, request (on behalf of itself and each Co-Borrower) any one or more of the Banks that is reasonably satisfactory
to each Issuing Bank to increase its Commitment (the decision to increase the Commitment of a Bank to be within the sole and absolute discretion of such Bank), or any Person (other than a Bank) that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent and each Issuing Bank to provide a new Commitment, by submitting to the Administrative Agent a Commitment Increase Supplement duly executed by the Borrower and each such Bank or other Person, as the case may be. If such Commitment Increase
Supplement is in the specified form, the Administrative Agent shall execute such Commitment Increase Supplement and deliver a copy thereof to the Borrower and each such Bank or other Person, as the case may be. Upon execution and delivery of such
Commitment Increase Supplement by the Administrative Agent, (i) in the case of each such Bank, such Bank’s Commitment shall be increased to the amount set forth in such Commitment Increase Supplement, (ii) in the case of each such
other Person, such other Person shall become a party hereto and shall for all purposes of the Loan Documents be deemed a “Bank” having a Commitment as set forth in such Commitment Increase Supplement, and (iii) in each case, the
Commitment of such Bank or such other Person, as the case may be, shall be as set forth in the applicable Commitment Increase Supplement; provided, however, that: 
 (A) each such increase shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $25,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in
excess thereof, 
 (B) immediately after giving effect to each such increase, the aggregate amount of all
Commitments shall not exceed $750,000,000; 
 (C) if Loans would be outstanding immediately after giving effect
to each such increase, then simultaneously with such increase (1) each such Bank, each such other Person and each other Bank having a Commitment (upon appropriate notice thereof) shall be deemed to have entered into a master assignment and
acceptance agreement, in form and substance substantially similar to Exhibit A, pursuant to which each such other Bank shall have assigned to each such Bank and each such other Person a portion of its Committed Loans and LC Exposure necessary
to reflect proportionately the Commitments as adjusted in accordance with this subsection (b), and (2) in connection with such assignment, each such Bank and each such other Person shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of
the other Banks, such amount as shall be necessary to appropriately reflect the assignment to it of Committed Loans and LC Exposure and in connection with such master assignment each such other Bank may treat the assignment of Committed Borrowings
(other than Committed Base Rate Borrowings) as a prepayment for purposes of Section 2.13; 
 (D) a
Responsible Officer of the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent an officer’s certificate, dated the date such

  

 28 

 
increase becomes effective, pursuant to which such Responsible Officer certifies that (x) the representations and warranties set forth in Article 4 are true and correct on and as of such
date and (y) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on such date; 
 (E) the
Administrative Agent shall have received other such certificates, legal opinions and other items as it shall reasonably request in connection with such increase; and 
 (F) the Commitments may not be increased more than two times per year. 
 Section 2.10 Mandatory Termination of Commitments; Effect of Termination or Reduction. The Commitments shall terminate on the
Maturity Date, and any Loans and LC Disbursements then outstanding (together with accrued interest thereon) shall be due and payable on such date. Each termination or reduction of the Commitments (including pursuant to Section 2.9) in
accordance with this Agreement shall be permanent. 
 Section 2.11 Optional and Mandatory Prepayments. 

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower may, upon (i) the same Business Day’s notice to the
Administrative Agent, prepay any Committed Base Rate Borrowing (or any Money Market Borrowing bearing interest at the Base Rate pursuant to Section 8.1(a)) or (ii) three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay any
Committed Euro-Dollar Loan or any Committed Alternate Currency Borrowing, in whole at any time, or from time to time in part in amounts aggregating $5,000,000 (or, if less, the aggregate amount of the Borrowing then outstanding) or any larger
multiple of $1,000,000 (or, such Dollar Equivalent if such Borrowing is denominated in a currency other than Dollars). Each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the Loans of the several Banks included in such Borrowing.

 (b) Mandatory Prepayments. If, at any time during the Revolving Credit Period, for any reason the aggregate Credit Exposure
of all Banks exceeds the aggregate sum of the Commitments then in effect, the Borrowers shall without notice or demand immediately prepay the Loans and, to the extent necessary, make a deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 2.16(i), in the aggregate amount necessary to eliminate such excess. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.11(b), such mandatory prepayments or deposits that would otherwise be required pursuant to
this Section 2.11(b) solely as a result of fluctuations in Exchange Rates from time to time shall only be required to be made in the event that on any date the aggregate Credit Exposure of all Banks exceeds 105% of the aggregate sum of the
Commitments then in effect on such date, on the basis of the Exchange Rates in effect on such date. 
 (c) Generally. Each
prepayment whether optional or mandatory shall consist of the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment and in the case of a prepayment of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, together with compensation
therefor pursuant to Section 2.13. Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment

  

 29 

 
pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the contents thereof and of such Bank’s share (if any) of such prepayment and such notice shall not
thereafter be revocable by the Borrower. 
 Section 2.12 General Provisions as to Payments. (a) The Borrowers
shall make each payment of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and fees hereunder, and (except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 2.16) LC Disbursements, without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction, (a) with respect to
each such payment in Dollars, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date when due, in funds immediately available in New York City, to the Administrative Agent at the Domestic Funding Office, and (b) with respect to each such
payment in an Alternate Currency, not later than 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the date when due, in funds immediately available in London, to the Administrative Agent at the Alternate Currency Funding Office. Except as otherwise provided in
Section 8.5, the Administrative Agent will promptly distribute (i) to each Bank its ratable share of each such payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks and (ii) to each Issuing Bank each payment
received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank. Whenever any payment hereunder (other than payments in respect of any Committed Euro-Dollar Loan, any Committed Alternate Currency Loan, or any Money Market Margin Auction
Loan) shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payments in respect of any Committed Euro-Dollar Loan, any Committed Alternate Currency Loan,
or any Money Market Margin Auction Loan shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless such Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the
date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time. Each payment of the principal of, or
interest on, a Loan or an LC Disbursement shall be payable in the Agreement Currency in which such Loan or LC Disbursement is denominated, and all such payments of fees pursuant to Section 2.8 shall be payable in Dollars. 
 (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Lenders hereunder that the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on
such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower or the applicable
Co-Borrower shall not have so made such payment, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such 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 Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. 
 Section 2.13 Funding Losses. If any of the Borrowers makes any payment of principal with respect to any Fixed Rate Loan (pursuant to Article 6 or 8 or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, or if any of the Borrowers fails to borrow any Fixed Rate Loans after notice has been given to any Bank in accordance with

  

 30 

 
Section 2.4(a), or if any of the Borrowers fails to repay any Loan (other than a Committed Base Rate Loan) on the due date therefor in accordance with Section 2.11(a), the Borrower or
the applicable Co-Borrower shall reimburse each Bank within 15 days after demand for any resulting loss or expense incurred by it (or by an existing or prospective Participant in the related Loan), including (without limitation) any loss
incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after any such payment or failure to borrow, provided that such Bank shall have delivered to the Borrower a certificate as to
the amount of such loss or expense, setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation thereof, which certificate shall be conclusive if prepared in good faith and on a reasonable basis. 
 Section 2.14 Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest on Committed Base Rate Loans and LC Disbursements shall be
computed on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year for the actual number of days elapsed. Interest on all Loans other than Committed Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

 (b) All fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed
(including the first day but excluding the last day). 
 Section 2.15 Special Mandatory Prepayment/Commitment
Termination. If either of the events described in Sections 2.15(a) and 2.15(b) below (each a “Change in Control”) occur, then on the 30th day following a Change in Control, the Borrowers shall be required to make a special
mandatory prepayment of all Loans outstanding hereunder and the Commitments of all of the Banks shall automatically terminate. Promptly after a Responsible Officer obtains knowledge of a Change of Control, the Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent and each Bank written notice thereof, provided that with respect to a Change of Control referred to in Section 2.15(b), the knowledge of each Responsible Officer shall be limited to information pursuant to formal written
notices delivered to the Borrower of which such Responsible Officer is aware and information in public securities law filings. The events which give rise to such special mandatory prepayment and Commitment termination are: 
 (a) During any period of three consecutive years individuals who at the beginning of such period constituted the board of directors of the
Borrower, together with any directors whose election or nomination for election by the Borrower’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least majority of the directors then still in office who were directors at the beginning of the period,
cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the board of directors of the Borrower. 
 (b) Any person or group of persons
(within the meaning of Section 13 and 14 of the Exchange Act) shall have acquired beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act) of Voting Securities of
the Borrower representing in excess of 35% of the votes entitled to vote for the election of directors of the Borrower. 
 For
purposes of this Section 2.15: 
 “Voting Securities” means all capital stock of the Borrower which is ordinarily

 Section 2.16 Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for its own account or for the account of a Co-Borrower, in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and an Issuing Bank selected by
the Borrower, at any time and from time to time during the period from the Effective Date to the fifteenth Business Day immediately preceding the last day of the Revolving Credit Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower or a Co-Borrower, as applicable with, such Issuing Bank relating
to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
 (b) Notice of
Issuance; Amendment; Renewal; Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit by an Issuing Bank (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit of an Issuing Bank), the Borrower shall hand
deliver or transmit by facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by such Issuing Bank) to such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (not later than three Business Days before the
requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and
such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by such Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in
connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, a Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and, upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit,
the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $150,000,000, (ii) the aggregate Credit Exposure of all Banks shall
not exceed the total Commitments and (iii) the Issuing Bank LC Exposure of such Issuing Bank shall not exceed the LC Commitment of such Issuing Bank. In addition to the requirements set forth in this Section 2.16(b), an Issuing Bank shall
be prohibited from issuing Letters of Credit hereunder upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default (provided that such Issuing Bank shall have received notice of such Default from the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any Bank
and provided further that such notice shall be received at least 24 hours prior to the date on which any Letter of Credit is to be issued). The Administrative Agent will, upon request of any Issuing Bank, confirm the total amount of LC Exposure and
the aggregate Credit Exposure (in accordance with the defined term “Dollar Equivalent”) of all Banks. 
 (c)
Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date that is one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension
thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is ten Business Days prior to the Maturity Date, provided that any Letter of Credit may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one year periods (which shall in no
event extend beyond the date that is ten Business Days prior to the Maturity Date). 
  

 32 

 (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of
Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of any Lender, each Issuing Bank issuing such Letter of Credit hereby grants to each Bank, and each such Bank hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in
such Letter of Credit equal to such Bank’s Lender Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each such Bank hereby absolutely and unconditionally
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Bank’s Lender Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower on the date due as
provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower for any reason. Each Bank acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations
pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and
continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 
 (e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued thereby, then such Issuing Bank
shall notify the Administrative Agent of such LC Disbursement. Upon such notification, the Administrative Agent shall either (i) notify the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower to reimburse such Issuing Bank therefor, in which case the
Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement and any accrued interest thereon not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on (A) the
Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, or (B) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not
received prior to such time, provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions of borrowing set forth herein, if the LC Disbursement is equal to or greater than $10,000,000, request in accordance with this Section 2.16 and
Section 2.2 that such payment be financed with a Committed Domestic Borrowing, in either case in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the
resulting Committed Domestic Borrowing, or (ii) require that the Banks make a loan in an amount equal to such LC Disbursement and any accrued interest thereon, in which case (A) the Administrative Agent shall notify each Bank of the
details thereof and of the amount of such Bank’s loan, and (B) each Bank shall, whether or not any Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any representation or warranty shall be accurate, any condition to the making of any Loan
hereunder shall have been fulfilled, or any other matter whatsoever, make the loan to be made by it under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for
such purpose by notice to the Banks on (1) the Business Day that such Bank receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the day of receipt or (2) the Business Day immediately following the
day that such Bank receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt. Each such loan shall, for all purposes hereof, be deemed to be a Committed Base Rate Loan made pursuant to Section 2.2, and the
Banks obligations to make such loans shall be

  

 33 

 
absolute and unconditional. The Administrative Agent will make such Committed Base Rate Loans available to such Issuing Bank by promptly crediting or otherwise transferring the amounts so
received, in like funds, to such Issuing Bank for the purpose of repaying in full such LC Disbursement and all accrued interest thereon. 
 (f) Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Borrower and each applicable Co-Borrower to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional
and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement,
or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect,
(iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s or the applicable Co-Borrower’s obligations hereunder.
No Issuing Bank shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances
referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a
drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the
applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each of the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower or the applicable
Co-Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise due care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in
the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised due care in each such determination. In
furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank
thereof may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such
documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 
 (g) Disbursement
Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued thereby. Each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify (which may include
telephonic notice, promptly confirmed by facsimile) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in
giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Banks with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
  

 34 

 (h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the
Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement, or convert such LC Disbursement into a Borrowing in accordance with the terms hereof, in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear
interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum equal to 1% plus the rate then
applicable to Committed Base Rate Loans. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of such Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Bank pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Bank to the extent of such payment. 
 (i) Cash
Collateral. If a Cash Collateral Event as described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the definition thereof shall have occurred, then the Borrower shall immediately deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the
Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in Dollars equal to 100% of the aggregate LC Exposure of all Banks on the date of such Cash Collateral Event plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. If a Cash Collateral Event
as described in clause (iv) of the definition thereof shall have occurred, then the Borrower shall immediately deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an
amount in Dollars at least equal to the amount of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender; provided, however, that in the event such Cash Collateral Event arises as a result of a Bank becoming a Defaulting Lender by not making a payment to an
Issuing Bank in respect of an LC Disbursement, then the Borrower shall immediately (x) pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Issuing Bank the amount owed in respect of such LC Disbursement, and (y) deposit in an account
with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in Dollars at least equal to the remaining amount of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender. 
 Such deposits shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under this
Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Such deposits shall not bear interest, nor shall the Administrative Agent be under any obligation
whatsoever to invest the same, provided that, at the request of the Borrower, such deposits shall be invested by the Administrative Agent in direct short term obligations of, or in other short term obligations which are unconditionally guaranteed
with respect to all principal thereof and interest thereon by, the United States of America, in each case maturing no later than the latest Letter of Credit expiry date. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such
account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank, on a pro rata basis, for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the
satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower or applicable Co-Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this
Agreement. 
  

 35 

 “Cash Collateral Event” means (i) the Commitments shall have terminated under
Section 6.1 at any time that no Loan or LC Disbursement is outstanding, (ii) the Obligations shall have become due and payable under Section 6.1, (iii) the Commitments of all of the Banks shall have terminated pursuant to
Section 2.15, or (iv) any Bank becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender and any Letter of Credit is at the time outstanding. 
 (j) Resignation of Issuing Bank. If a Bank becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, any Issuing Bank may, upon prior written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent,
resign as an Issuing Bank effective at the close of business New York time on a date specified in such notice (which date may not be less than five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice, or if cash collateral has been provided
pursuant to Section 2.16(i), not less than 60 days after the date of such notice); provided that such resignation by an Issuing Bank will have no effect on the validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and
then outstanding or on the obligations of the Borrowers or any Lender under this Agreement with respect to any such outstanding Letter of Credit or otherwise to such Issuing Bank. 
 Section 2.17 Borrowings by Co-Borrowers. (a) The Borrower may, at any time or from time to time, designate any
Wholly-Owned Subsidiary as a Co-Borrower hereunder by furnishing to the Administrative Agent a letter (a “Designation Letter”), in substantially the form of Exhibit F, duly completed and executed by the Borrower and such Wholly-Owned
Subsidiary. Upon any such designation of such a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary and upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent in Section 3.4 (or waiver thereof in accordance with this Agreement), such Wholly-Owned Subsidiary shall be a Co-Borrower
and as a Co-Borrower, entitled to borrow Loans and to request the issuance of Letters of Credit on and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver to each Lender a copy of each Designation
Letter received by the Administrative Agent. If the Borrower shall designate as a Co-Borrower hereunder any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary not organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, any Lender may, with notice to the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower, fulfill its Commitment by causing an Affiliate of such Lender to act as the Lender in respect of such Co-Borrower (and such Lender shall, to the extent of Loans made to and participations in Letters of Credit
issued for the account of such Co-Borrower, be deemed for all purposes hereof to have pro tanto assigned such Loans and participations to such Affiliate in compliance with the provisions of Section 9.6). 
 (b) So long as either (i) all principal of and interest on all Loans made to any Co-Borrower have been paid in full and no Letters of
Credit issued for the account of such Co-Borrower are outstanding or (ii) the Borrower has assumed, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Banks, all Obligations of a Co-Borrower hereunder and
under any other Loan Document, including all of such Co-Borrower’s obligations in respect of Letters of Credit issued for its account, the Borrower may terminate the status of such Co-Borrower as a Co-Borrower hereunder by furnishing to the
Administrative Agent a letter (a “Termination Letter”) in substantially the form of Exhibit G, duly completed and

  

 36 

 
executed by the Borrower. Any Termination Letter furnished hereunder shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify the Lenders. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the delivery of a Termination Letter with respect to any Co-Borrower shall not terminate any obligation of such Co-Borrower that remains unpaid at the time of such delivery (including without limitation any obligation arising thereafter
in respect of such Co-Borrower under Sections 8.3, 8.6 and 9.3). 
 ARTICLE 3

of Credit. 
 Each Borrowing and each issuance, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit hereunder shall be deemed to be a representation and
warranty by the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as to the facts specified in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of this Section. 
 Section 3.3 Defaulting Lenders. In addition to the other conditions precedent herein set forth, if any Bank becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing
Bank will be required to issue any Letter of Credit or to amend any outstanding Letter of Credit to increase the face amount thereof, alter the drawing terms thereunder or extend the expiry date thereof unless such Issuing Bank is satisfied that any
exposure that would result therefrom is fully covered by the cash collateralization obligations of the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16(i).

Designation Letter on behalf of such Co-Borrower; 
 (d) if the addition of such Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower as a
Co-Borrower hereunder obliges the Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, then the
Borrower shall have promptly, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (which request shall have been made within 10 days following such Lender’s receipt of the applicable Designation Letter), supplied such documentation and
other evidence as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied, and the Administrative Agent or such Lender, shall have been satisfied, that it has

such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees or (2) the Borrower or the relevant Co-Borrower (in the case of all other amounts).

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 Section 7.1 Appointment and Authority. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Citibank, N.A. to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and
authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower and each Co-Borrower shall have no rights as third party beneficiaries of any of such provisions. 
 Section 7.2 Administrative Agent Individually. (a) The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the
same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context
otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity
for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Co-Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or other Affiliates as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor
to the Lenders. 
 (b) Each Lender understands that the Person serving as an Agent, acting in its individual capacity, and its
Affiliates (collectively, the “Agent’s Group”) are engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses (including investment management, financing, securities trading, corporate and investment banking and research) (such
services and businesses

  

 53 

 
are collectively referred to in this Section 7.2 as “Activities”) and may engage in the Activities with or on behalf of the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or any of their respective
Affiliates. Furthermore, the Agent’s Group may, in undertaking the Activities, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investment businesses for its own account or on behalf of others (including the Borrower, any Co-Borrower
and their respective Affiliates and including holding, for its own account or on behalf of others, equity, debt and similar positions in the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or their respective Affiliates), including trading in or holding long, short or
derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or their respective Affiliates. Each Lender understands and agrees that in engaging in the Activities, the Agent’s Group may receive or
otherwise obtain information concerning the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or their respective Affiliates (including information concerning the ability of the Borrower or any Co-Borrower to perform their respective Obligations hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents) which information may not be available to any of the Lenders that are not members of the Agent’s Group. No Agent or any member of the Agent’s Group shall have any duty to disclose to any Lender or use on behalf of the
Lenders, and shall not be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, any information whatsoever about or derived from the Activities or otherwise (including any information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and
other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any Co-Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates) or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with the Activities, except that such Agent shall deliver or otherwise make
available to each Lender such documents as are expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by such Agent to the Lenders. 
 (c) Each Lender further understands that there may be situations where members of the Agent’s Group or their respective customers (including the Borrower, any Co-Borrower and their respective Affiliates) either now have or may in the
future have interests or take actions that may conflict with the interests of any one or more of the Lenders (including the interests of the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents). Each Lender agrees that no member of the Agent’s
Group is or shall be required to restrict its activities as a result of the Person serving as an Agent being a member of the Agent’s Group, and that each member of the Agent’s Group may undertake any Activities without further consultation
with or notification to any Lender. None of (i) this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, (ii) the receipt by the Agent’s Group of information (including Information) concerning the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or their respective
Affiliates (including information concerning the ability of the Borrower or any Co-Borrower to perform their respective Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) nor (iii) any other matter shall give rise to any fiduciary,
equitable or contractual duties (including without limitation any duty of trust or confidence) owing by any Agent or any member of the Agent’s Group to any Lender including any such duty that would prevent or restrict the Agent’s Group
from acting on behalf of customers (including the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or their respective Affiliates) or for its own account. 
 Section 7.3 Duties of Administrative Agent; Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The Administrative Agent’s duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are solely ministerial and administrative in nature and the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take

  

 54 

 
any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, but shall be required to act or refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the
written direction of the Required Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action
that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the
Required Banks or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.6 or Article 6 or (ii) in
the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or the event or events that give or may give rise to any Default or Event of Default
unless and until the Borrower or any Lender shall have given notice to the Administrative Agent describing such Default or Event of Default and such event or events. 
 (c) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any member of the Agent’s Group shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty, representation or
other information made or supplied in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the information memorandum, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in
connection herewith or therewith or the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of the information contained therein, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or
therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, or instrument or (v) the satisfaction of any
condition set forth in Article 3 or elsewhere herein, other than (but subject to the foregoing clause (ii)) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties to carry out
any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any person on behalf of any Lender and each Lender confirms to the Administrative Agent that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may
not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties. 
 Section 7.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument,
document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative
Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the
making of a

  

 55 

 
Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless an officer of the
Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated hereby shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for
the Borrower or any Co-Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 Section 7.5 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers by or through their respective Related Parties. Each such sub-agent and the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and each such sub-agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 7 and Section 9.3 (as
though such sub-agents were the “Administrative Agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 
 Section 7.6 Indemnification. Each Bank shall, ratably in accordance with its Commitment, indemnify each Agent and each Issuing Bank (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) against any
cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss (except any loss in respect of any fee arrangement between the Borrower and any Agent to which each Bank is not a party) or liability (except such as result from
such Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such Agent or such Issuing Bank may suffer or incur in connection with the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent or such Issuing Bank
thereunder. 
 Section 7.7 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice
of its resignation to the Lender and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower (except if an Event of Default is continuing, in which case no consultation
with the Borrower shall be required), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York, New York. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the
Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (such 30-day period, the “Lender Appointment Period”), then the retiring Administrative Agent
may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. In addition and without any obligation on the part of the retiring Administrative Agent to appoint, on behalf of the Lenders, a
successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent may at any time upon or after the end of the Lender Appointment Period notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted appointment as successor
Administrative Agent and the effective date of such retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation which effective date shall be no earlier than three business days after the date of such notice. Upon the resignation effective date established in
such notice and regardless of whether a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed and accepted such appointment, the retiring

  

 56 

 
Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Administrative
Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as
the Required Banks appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all
of the rights, powers, privileges and duties as Administrative Agent of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower or any Co-Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its
predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower or any Co-Borrower and such successor Administrative Agent. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this
Article 7 and Section 9.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the
retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Section 7.8 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent
and Other Lenders. (a) Each Lender confirms to each Agent, each other Lender and each of their respective Related Parties that it (i) possesses (individually or through its Related Parties) such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters that it is capable, without reliance on any Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, of evaluating the merits and risks (including tax, legal, regulatory, credit, accounting and other financial
matters) of (x) entering into this Agreement, (y) making Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (z) in taking or not taking actions hereunder and thereunder, (ii) is financially able
to bear such risks and (iii) has determined that entering into this Agreement and making Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder is suitable and appropriate for it. 
 (b) Each Lender acknowledges that (i) it is solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks
arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, made its own appraisal and
investigation of all risks associated with, and its own credit analysis and decision to enter into, this Agreement based on such documents and information, as it has deemed appropriate and (iii) it will, independently and without reliance upon
any Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, continue to be solely responsible for making its own appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with, and its own credit analysis and decision to
take or not take action under, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, which may include, in each case: 
 (i) the financial condition, status and capitalization of the Borrower or any Co-Borrower; 
  

 57 

 (ii) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of
this Agreement and each other Loan Document and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Loan Document; 
 (iii) determining compliance or non-compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan or the issuance of a
Letter of Credit, and the form and substance of all evidence delivered in connection with establishing the satisfaction of each such condition; 
 (iv) the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of the information memorandum and any other information delivered by any Agent, any other Lender or by any of their respective Related Parties under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Loan
Document. 
 Section 7.9 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Persons
acting as Bookrunners, Lead Arrangers, Documentation Agents or Syndication Agent listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as
applicable, as the Administrative Agent or as a Lender hereunder. 
 ARTICLE 8 
 CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES 
 Section 8.1 Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Spread Borrowing: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means
do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period, or 
 (b) Banks having 50% or more of the
aggregate amount of the Commitments advise the Administrative Agent that the Eurocurrency Rate as determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost of such Banks of funding their Spread Loans for such Interest
Period, 
 the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Banks, whereupon until the Administrative Agent
notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Banks to make Spread Loans shall be suspended. Unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days
before the date of any Spread Borrowing for which a Notice of Borrowing has previously been given that it elects not to borrow on such date, (i) if such Spread Borrowing is a Committed Euro-Dollar Borrowing or a Committed Alternate Currency
Borrowing, such Borrowing shall instead be made as a Committed Base Rate Borrowing and (ii) if such Spread Borrowing is a Money Market Margin Auction Borrowing, the Money Market Margin Auction Loans comprising such Borrowing shall bear interest
for each day from and including the first day to but excluding the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto at the Base Rate for such day. 
  

 58 

 Section 8.2 Illegality. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption
of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or any applicable lending office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it
unlawful or impossible for any Lender (or any applicable lending office) to make, maintain or fund its Alternate Currency Loans or Eurocurrency Loans and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith
give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon until such Lender notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender to make
Eurocurrency Loans and/or Alternate Currency Loans shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, such Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for
giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. If such Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding Alternate Currency Loans or
Eurocurrency Loans to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each such Eurocurrency Loan and Alternate Currency Loan,
together with accrued interest thereon. Concurrently with prepaying each such Eurocurrency Loan and Alternate Currency Loan, the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower shall borrow a Committed Base Rate Loan in a Dollar Equivalent principal amount
from such Bank (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Eurocurrency Loans or Alternate Currency Loans of the other Banks), and such Bank shall make such a Committed Base Rate Loan. 
 Section 8.3 Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) If on or after (x) the date hereof, in the case of any Committed
Loan (other than a Committed Base Rate Loan) or Letter of Credit or any obligation to make such Committed Loans or issue or participate in any Letter of Credit (each an “Affected Committed Credits or Obligation”) or (y) the date of
the related Money Market Quote, in the case of any Money Market Loan (each an “Affected Money Market Credit or Obligation” and, together with each Affected Committed Credit or Obligation, an “Affected Credit or Obligation”), the
adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with
the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency: 

(i) shall subject any Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its
Affected Loans or Obligations, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender (or its applicable lending office) of the principal of or interest in respect of its Affected Loans or Obligations or any other

  

 59 

 
amounts due under this Agreement in respect of its Affected Loans or Obligations (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or its applicable lending office
imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Lender’s principal executive office or applicable lending office is located); or 
 (ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Federal Reserve Board, but excluding with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan, any
such requirement included in an applicable Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage), special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (or its applicable
lending office) or shall impose on any Lender (or its applicable lending office) or on the London interbank market any other condition affecting its Affected Loans or Obligations; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of making or maintaining any Affected Loan or Obligation, or the cost to such Lender of
issuing, participating in or maintaining any Affected Loan or Obligation, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) under this Agreement or in respect of its portion of the
Obligations with respect thereto, then, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such
increased cost or reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers’ obligation to compensate a Lender for any increased costs or reductions under this Section 8.3 that are attributable to taxes shall be governed by Section 8.6.

 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation
regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any such law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital
of such Lender (or its Parent Company) as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender (or its Parent Company) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into
consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts
as will compensate such Lender (or its Parent Company) for such reduction. 
 (c) Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section and will designate a different applicable lending office if such
designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation 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 a calculation in reasonable detail of the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive if prepared in good faith and on a reasonable basis. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable
averaging and attribution methods. 
  

 60 

 Section 8.4 Committed Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Loans. If
(i) the obligation of any Lender to make Eurocurrency Loans or Alternate Currency Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 8.2 or (ii) any Lender has demanded compensation under Section 8.3(a) and the Borrower shall, by at
least five Business Days’ prior notice to such Lender through the Administrative Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Lender, then, unless and until such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances
giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer exist: 
 (a) all Loans which would otherwise be made by
such Bank as Eurocurrency Loans or Alternate Currency Loans shall be made instead as Committed Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Fixed Rate Loans of the other Banks), and 

(b) after each of its Eurocurrency Loans or Alternate Currency Loans has been repaid, all payments of principal which would otherwise be
applied to repay such Fixed Rate Loans shall be applied to repay its Committed Base Rate Loans instead. 
 Section 8.5
Substitution or Removal of Bank. (a) If with respect to any Bank, (i) such Bank has demanded compensation under Section 8.3, or (ii) any of the Borrowers shall become obligated pursuant to Section 8.6(a) to increase the
amount of any payment to or for the benefit of such Bank, the Borrower shall have the right at its sole expense (including the fees referred to in Section 9.6(b)), with the assistance of the Administrative Agent, to seek a substitute bank or
banks (which may be one or more of the Banks) to purchase its portion of the Obligations and assume the Commitment of such Bank; provided that if such substitute bank is not a Bank, then (x) such substitute bank shall have been approved by the
Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank and (y) the Borrower shall have paid the Administrative Agent a $3,500 administrative fee. A Bank may not be replaced pursuant to this Section 8.5(a) unless, among other things, no Default has
occurred and is continuing, such Bank has received all outstanding principal of, and accrued interest on, such Bank’s Loans, all accrued fees owing to such Bank hereunder, and all other sums then due and payable to such Bank (including, without
limitation, any sums that would be due to such Bank under Article 8), and if such Bank is replaced pursuant to this Section 8.5(a), such Bank shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 8.3, 8.6 and 9.3.

 (b) If any Bank becomes a Non-Consenting Bank, then the Borrower, at its sole expense (including the fees referred to in
Section 9.6(b)) and effort, shall have the right, within 45 days of the date such Bank became a Non-Consenting Bank (a) to seek a substitute bank or banks (which may be one or more of the Banks) to purchase its portion of the
Obligations and assume the Commitment of such Bank, provided that if any such substitute bank is not a Bank, then (x) such substitute bank shall have been approved by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank and (y) the Borrower
shall have paid the Administrative Agent a $3,500 administrative fee, or (b) provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to remove such Bank as a “Bank” pursuant to this Section; provided that after giving effect
to

  

 61 

 
each removal of a Non-Consenting Bank, the sum of (A) a fraction (expressed as a percentage), the numerator of which is the Commitment of such Non-Consenting Bank, and the denominator of
which is the sum of the aggregate Commitments existing at the time immediately prior to the removal of such Non-Consenting Bank, plus (B) with respect to each other Non-Consenting Bank removed in accordance with this Section since the Effective
Date, the percentage calculated with respect thereto under the immediately preceding clause (A) at the time of the removal of such prior Non-Consenting Bank, shall not exceed 15%. A Non-Consenting Bank that has been duly selected by the
Borrower to be removed shall be removed as a “Bank” effective upon (i) the delivery to the Administrative Agent and such Non-Consenting Bank of a written notice to such effect, (ii) the payment to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of such Bank, of all outstanding principal of, and accrued interest on, such Bank’s Loans and all accrued fees owing to such Bank hereunder, and (iii) the payment to such Non-Consenting Bank of all other sums then due and
payable thereto (including, without limitation, any sums that would be due to such Non-Consenting Bank under Article 8), at which time the Commitment of such Non-Consenting Bank shall automatically terminate and such Non-Consenting Bank shall
no longer be a “Bank” under the Loan Documents (but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 8.3, 8.6 and 9.3). In the event that (x) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested the Banks to
consent to a departure from or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or agree to any amendment thereto and (y) Required Banks have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, then any Bank that does not agree to such consent, waiver
or amendment (whether affirmatively or by failure to respond within five Business Days of a request therefor) shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Bank”. 
 Section 8.6 Taxes. (a) Each payment made by any of the Borrowers to a Lender or the Administrative Agent under each Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or
withholding for or on account of, any Non-Excluded Taxes. If any such Non-Excluded Taxes are required to be withheld from any amount payable by the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under
any Loan Document, in each such case (i) such amount payable shall be increased by the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower by the amount necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section 8.6) the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower shall make such
deductions, and (iii) the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other governmental authority in accordance with applicable law. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other
Taxes are payable by any of the Borrowers, as promptly as possible thereafter, but no later than thirty (30) days after the date of payment, the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such
Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower showing payment of the full amount thereof. 
 (b) Each Lender (or any assignee or participant described in Section 9.6) that is not a United States Person within the meaning of
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a participant described in Section 9.6, to the Lender from which the related

  

 62 

 
participation shall have been purchased) two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN; Form W-8ECI (as applicable), or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption
from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 87 1(h) or 88 1(c) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto (and, if such
Non-U.S. Lender, claiming an exemption with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, delivers a Form W-8BEN, an annual certificate representing that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c) of
the Internal Revenue Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of the Borrower and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of
Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code) or any other similar representations required under any successor exemptions), properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming that such Non-U.S. Lender is, on the date of
delivery thereof, exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents, or subject to a reduced rate of U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to such payments, and any other forms or documentation
reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent from time to time to establish an exemption from or reduction in any U.S. federal withholding taxes. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes
a party to any Loan Document and on or before such date, if any, such Non-U.S. Lender changes its applicable lending office (or, in the case of any such participant, on or before the date such participant purchases the related participation). In
addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at
any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose) or that a certificate previously
provided has become inapplicable. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (b), a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph (i) that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to
complete, execute and deliver, or (ii) which results, in the reasonable determination of such Non-U.S. Lender, in the imposition of (1) any additional material out-of-pocket costs in each case, not otherwise indemnified by the Borrowers in
a manner satisfactory to such Lender or (2) any other material adverse consequences. 
 (c) A Lender that is entitled to an
exemption from or reduction of non-U.S. Non- Excluded Tax shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and
executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that (i) such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation, or
(ii) the completion, execution and delivery of such documentation does not result, in the reasonable determination of such Lender, in the imposition of (1) any additional material out-of-pocket costs in each case, not otherwise indemnified
by the Borrowers in a manner satisfactory to such Lender or (2) any other material adverse consequences. 
 (d) The
Borrowers shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property, intangible or mortgage recording or similar taxes, charges or

  

 63 

 
levies which arise from any payment made by the Borrowers hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or from the execution, delivery or
registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or any other documents to be delivered hereunder (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 
 (e) The Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Non-Excluded
Taxes or Other Taxes and for the full amount of any Taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 8.6 imposed on or paid by such Lender or such Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any
liability (including expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the applicable jurisdiction. This indemnification shall be made within
30 days from the date such Lender or such Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. 
 (f) If the
Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or a Co-Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower or a Co-Borrower has
paid additional amounts, in either case pursuant to this Section 8.6, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or
the applicable Co-Borrower under this Section 8.6 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than
any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, shall repay the amount (or portion thereof)
paid over to the Borrower or the applicable Co-Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is
required to repay such refund (or portion thereof) to such governmental authority. 
 (g) Nothing in this Section 8.6 shall
be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any tax returns or other confidential information available to any of the Borrowers or any other Person. 
 (h) At the request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall take reasonable steps to avoid the need for the Borrowers
to pay any amounts under this Section 8.6 to or for the account of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, if such steps will not, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, be otherwise
disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent or such Lender. 
 (i) Amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Section 8.6
shall be in addition to, but not in duplication of, amounts otherwise payable by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents. 
  

 64 

 (j) The agreements in this Section 8.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement
and each other Loan Document and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder and thereunder.

Agent from time to time in a written notice to the Borrower). The Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any Communication delivered by the Borrower or any Co-Borrower pursuant to this
paragraph shall be deemed to have been delivered in accordance with this Agreement. 
 (d) Each party hereto agrees that the
Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinks or another relevant website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial,
third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent) (the “Platform”). Nothing in this Section 9.1 shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent to make the Communications available to the Lenders in any other
manner specified in this Agreement. 
 (e) The Borrower and each Co-Borrower hereby acknowledges that certain of the Lenders may
be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or any Co-Borrower or their respective securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). The Borrower and each
Co-Borrower hereby agrees that (i) Communications that are to be made available on the Platform to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC”
shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by marking Communications “PUBLIC,” the Borrower and each Co-Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Communications as
either publicly available information or not material information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrower or any Co-Borrower or their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal and state
securities laws, (iii) all Communications marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Lender,” and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any

 (f) Each Lender agrees that e-mail notice to it (at the address provided pursuant to the next sentence and deemed delivered as provided in the next paragraph) specifying that Communications have been
posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such Communications to such Lender for purposes of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from
time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail
address. 
  

 66 

 (g) Each party hereto agrees that any electronic communication referred to in this
Section 9.1 shall be deemed delivered upon the posting of a record of such communication (properly addressed to such party at the e-mail address provided to the Administrative Agent) as “sent” in the e-mail system of the sending party
or, in the case of any such communication to the Administrative Agent, upon the posting of a record of such communication as “received” in the e-mail system of the Administrative Agent; provided that if such communication is not so
received by the Administrative Agent during the normal business hours of the Administrative Agent, such communication shall be deemed delivered at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the Administrative Agent. 
 (h) Each party hereto acknowledges that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and
that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Communications and the Platform are provided “as is” and “as available,” (iii) none of the Administrative Agent, its affiliates
nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or representatives (collectively, the “Citigroup Parties”) warrants the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of the Communications or the Platform, and each
Citigroup Party expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in any Communications or the Platform, and (iv) no warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability,
fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Citigroup Party in connection with any Communications or the Platform. 
 Section 9.2 No Waivers. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Bank in exercising any right, power or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. 
 Section 9.3 Expenses; Indemnification.
(a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all out of pocket expenses of the Agents, including fees and disbursements of special counsel for the Agents, in connection with the preparation and administration of each Loan Document, any waiver or
consent thereunder or any amendment thereof or any Default or alleged Default, (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by each Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of
Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, and (iii) all out of pocket expenses incurred by any Agent or Lender, including fees and disbursements of counsel, in connection with any enforcement of rights or workout, any Event of Default and
collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom. 
 (b) The Borrowers agree to
indemnify each Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates and the respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of such Agent, such Lender and such Lender’s Affiliates (each of the foregoing being an “Indemnified
Person”) and hold each Indemnified Person harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be incurred
by such Indemnified

  

 67 

 
Person (or by any Agent (together with its officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors and Affiliates) in connection with its actions as Agent hereunder) in connection with or arising out
of or as a result of (i) the execution, delivery or performance of the Loan Documents, any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the transactions contemplated thereby or any Loan or Letter of Credit, or the actual or proposed used of
the Loans or Letters of Credit or (ii) any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnified Person shall be designated a party thereto) relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any actual or
proposed use of proceeds of Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder including any refusal of an Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with
the terms of such Letter of Credit; provided that no Indemnified Person shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and
non-appealable judgment. Notwithstanding the above, no Bank will be entitled to indemnification with respect to any facility fees for which such Bank was not entitled to receive as a result of being a Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 2.8(e). 
 (c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, none of the Borrowers shall assert, and each of
the Borrowers hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnified Person, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result
of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any issuance of a Letter of Credit. No Indemnified Person
referred to in Section 9.3 shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended or unauthorized recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other similar information
transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 Section 9.4 Sharing of Set Offs and Payments. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or by any other means, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of the
Obligations held by it (other than in the circumstances contemplated by Section 8.5) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Obligations held by such other Lender, the Lender receiving such
proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Obligations held by the other Lenders, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments of the Obligations held by the Lenders shall be
shared by the Lenders pro rata; provided that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Lender to exercise any right of set off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness
of the Borrower other than the Obligations. The Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any holder of a participation in a Bank’s portion of the Obligations, whether or not acquired pursuant to
the foregoing arrangements, may exercise rights of set off or counterclaim and other rights with respect to such participation as if such holder of a participation were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

  

 68 

 Section 9.5 Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of the Loan Documents may be
amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Borrowers and the Required Banks (and, if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent are affected thereby, by the Administrative Agent); provided
that no such amendment or waiver shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Bank without the written consent of such Bank, (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan or any fees hereunder without the written consent of each
Bank affected thereby, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any Loan or any fees hereunder without the written consent of each Bank affected thereby, (iv) change the percentage of the Commitments or
of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Obligations, or the number of Banks, which shall be required for the Banks or any of them to take any action under this Section or any other provision of this Agreement without the written consent of
each Bank, (v) change any provision hereof in any manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required by this Agreement without the written consent of each Bank, (vi) add any additional currency as an Agreement Currency
without the written consent of each Bank, (vii) waive any condition set forth in Section 3.1 or Section 3.2 without the written consent of each Bank, (viii) change any provision of this Section without the written consent of each
Bank, or (ix) change any provision of the Loan Documents affecting the rights or obligations of any Issuing Bank without the consent of such Issuing Bank. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period that a Bank is a
Defaulting Lender, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and waivers hereunder which are subject to the approval of the Required Banks, and the Commitment and
the outstanding Loans or other extensions of credit of such Defaulting Lender hereunder will not be taken into account in determining whether the Required Banks have approved any such amendment or waiver (and the definition of “Required
Banks” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period). 
 Section 9.6
Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that none of the Borrowers may assign or otherwise
transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of all Lenders; and provided further that except as contemplated by sub sections (b), (e) and (f) of this Section 9.6 and by Sections 2.4(b)
and 9.4, no Lender may assign, grant participations in or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement. 
 (b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, its LC Exposure and the Loans and other Obligations at the time owing to
it), provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Eligible Affiliate or an Approved Fund, each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of all or any portion of a Commitment, each
Issuing Bank) must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Bank, an Eligible Affiliate or an assignment of the entire
remaining amount of the assigning Bank’s Commitment, or unless the Borrower, each Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Bank subject to each such assignment (determined
as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance

  

 69 

 
with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall be $10,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000, (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, (iv) any assignment to the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof shall require the prior written consent of each of the
Lenders and each Issuing Bank, and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Bank, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, and provided further, that any consent of the Borrower otherwise required under this
paragraph shall not be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance,
the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 8.3, 8.6 and 9.3). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not
comply with this paragraph or paragraph (f) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section. For purposes of this
Section 9.6(b), “Eligible Affiliate” means, with respect to any Lender, any Affiliate thereof that has combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a
copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and each notice of removal of a Bank under Section 8.5 delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans
owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent clearly demonstrable error, and the Borrowers and each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower
and any Lender and the Administrative Agent, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (d)
Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and
recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the
information contained therein in the Register. Upon the effectiveness of any removal of a Bank pursuant to Section 8.5, the Administrative Agent shall record the relevant information in the Register. No assignment shall be effective, and no
removal of any Bank shall be effective, for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
  

 70 

 (e) Any Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks or other institutions (each a
“Participant”) participating interests in any of its Obligations. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a
participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in clause (i) through (viii) of Section 9.5
without the consent of the Participant. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall, to the extent provided in its participation agreement and subject to the requirements of Article 8, be entitled to the benefits of Article 8 with
respect to its participating interest. 
 (f) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or any
of the Borrowers, pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure the obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal
Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest. No such pledge or assignment shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder. 
 (g) No Participant in any Lender’s Credit Exposure shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.3 and
Section 8.6 than such Lender would have been entitled to receive. 
 Section 9.7 [Intentionally omitted]

 Section 9.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the
State of New York. 
 Section 9.9 Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each party hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof,
in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any
such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any Agent or any Lender may otherwise have
to bring any action or proceeding relating to the Loan Documents against the Borrower, or any of its property, in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
  

 71 

 (b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent
it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this
Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (c) Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.1. Nothing in this
Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
 Section 9.10 Jury Trial. 
 EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR
ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED
TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 Section 9.11 Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart of
a signature page to this Agreement by telecopy or electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.12 Judgment Currency. (a) If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in one currency into another currency, the parties
hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other
currency in the city in which it normally conducts its foreign exchange operation for the first currency on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 
 (b) The obligation of the Borrower and each Co-Borrower in respect of any sum due from it to any Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding any
judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on
the Business Day following receipt by such Lender of any sum adjudged to be so

  

 72 

 
due in the Judgment Currency such Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of Agreement Currency so
purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower and each Co-Borrower agrees notwithstanding any such judgment to indemnify such Lender against such loss, and if the amount of the Agreement
Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Lender, such Lender agrees to remit to the Borrower or such Co-Borrower, as the case may be, such excess. 
 Section 9.13 Patriot Act. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower and each Co-Borrower that pursuant to the
requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-5 6 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and such Co-Borrower,
which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and such Co-Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and such Co-Borrower in accordance with the
Patriot Act. 
 Section 9.14 Right of Setoff. If a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender (and any of its Affiliates) is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final)
at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender (or any of its Affiliates) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Co-Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The
rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
 Section 9.15 Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower or any Co-Borrower herein or in any other Loan Document and in the
certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans,
regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not been terminated or there remains any Credit Exposure. 
 Section 9.16 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate, together with all fees and charges which are treated as
interest under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or reserved by any Lender, shall exceed the
maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable on the Loan of such Lender, together with all Charges
payable to such Lender, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate. 
  

 73 

 Section 9.17 Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 Section 9.18 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of
Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
 Section 9.19 No Fiduciary Relationship. The Borrower and each Co-Borrower agree that in connection with all aspects of the
transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Borrower, any Co-Borrower and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Agents, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a
business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Agents, the Lenders or their respective Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such
transactions or communications. 
 Section 9.20 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender
agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower and each Co-Borrower, to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective
managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such
Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or any of its Affiliates (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the
National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any
remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or
its managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives) to any swap or derivative or similar transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower or any
Co-Borrower and their respective obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (iii) any rating agency, or (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, (g) with the written consent of the Borrower, or (h) to
the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis
from a source other than the Borrower or a Co-Borrower. 
  

 74 

 For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower, any
Co-Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative
Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or any of their
respective Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have
complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 Section 9.21 Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank agree in writing in their discretion that a
Bank that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth
therein, such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase such portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders and/or make such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Committed Credit Exposure
of the Lenders to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender (and such Committed Credit Exposure of each Lender will
automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while such 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 Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 Section 9.22 Joint and Several Liability. The
Borrower and each Co-Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for all Obligations, as more specifically set forth in each Designation Letter.

determined that it will benefit specifically and materially from the advances of credit contemplated by the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents; and (ii) it is both a condition precedent to the obligations of each Lender under the Credit
Agreement and a desire of the Borrower and the Co-Borrower to execute and deliver this Designation Letter. 
 The Borrower and
the Co-Borrower shall be liable for all amounts due to the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender from the Borrower or any other Co-Borrower under the Credit Agreement, regardless of which of the Borrower or any Co-Borrower actually receives Loans,
the benefit of any issuance of a Letter of Credit or other extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement (all such extensions of credit being, collectively, “Extensions of Credit”) or the amount of such Extensions of Credit received by
the Borrower or any Co-Borrower or the manner in which the Administrative Agent and/or such Lender accounts for such Extensions of Credit on its books and records (without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower and the Co-Borrower shall be liable for
Extensions of Credit made to the Borrower and any other Co-Borrower). Each of the Borrower’s and the Co-Borrower’s Obligations with respect to Extensions of Credit made to it, and the Borrowers’ Obligations arising as a result of the
joint and several liability of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement, with respect to Extensions of Credit made to the Borrower or any Co-Borrower under the Credit Agreement, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such Obligations
shall be primary obligations of the Borrower or the Co-Borrower, as the case may be. 
 The Borrower and the Co-Borrower each
agree that if the Borrowers’ joint and several liability under the Credit Agreement, or if any Liens securing such joint and several liability, would, but for the application of this sentence, be unenforceable under applicable law, such joint
and several liability and each such Lien shall be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent that would not cause such joint and several liability or such Lien to be unenforceable under applicable law, and such joint and several liability and such
Lien shall be deemed to have been automatically amended accordingly at all relevant times. 
 Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against the Borrower or the Co-Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first
proceeding against the Borrower, any Co-Borrower or any other Person. The Borrower and the Co-Borrower each consent and agree that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or the
Co-Borrower, as the case may be, or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. 
 The Borrower and the Co-Borrower
are obligated to repay the Obligations as joint and several obligors under the Credit Agreement. To the extent that the Borrower or the Co-Borrower shall, under the Credit Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations
incurred directly and primarily by any of the other Borrowers (an “Accommodation Payment”), then the Borrower or the Co-Borrower, as the case may be, making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification
from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower’s “Allocable Amount” (as
defined below) and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of the Borrower and each Co-Borrower shall be equal to the maximum

 
amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against the Borrower or such Co-Borrower, as the case may be, under the Credit Agreement without (i) rendering the
Borrower or such Co-Borrower, as the case may be, “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the
Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (ii) leaving the Borrower or such Co-Borrower, as the case may be, with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of
the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (iii) leaving the Borrower or such Co-Borrower, as the case may be, unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the
UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All rights and claims of contribution, indemnification and reimbursement described above shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Obligations. 
 The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that, before and after giving effect to this
Designation Letter, (i) the representations and warranties set forth in Article 4 of the Credit Agreement are true and correct on the date hereof as if made on and as of the date hereof and (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing. The Co-Borrower represents and warrants that each of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.8, 4.9 and 4.10 of the Credit Agreement are true as if each reference therein to the Borrower were a
reference to the Co-Borrower and as if each reference therein to the Loan Documents were a reference to this Designation Letter executed by the Co-Borrower in connection herewith. 
 For purposes of Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement, notices and other communications to the Co-Borrower shall be mailed by certified
or registered mail or sent by telecopy, at [insert address], Attention [insert contact] (Facsimile No. [insert fax number]).* 
 The Co-Borrower hereby agrees that this Designation Letter, the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. The Co-Borrower hereby submits to the
nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York state court sitting in New York City for the purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Designation
Letter, the Credit Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby. The Co-Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding
brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Co-Borrower further agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding brought in New York may be made
upon it by service upon the Borrower at the “Address for Notices” specified in the Credit Agreement. 
  

	*	Applicable contact information to be inserted by the Co-Borrower. 

 [The Co-Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints CT
Corporation System, having an office on the date hereof at 111 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York 10011 as its authorized agent, to accept and acknowledge on its behalf, service of any and all process which may be served in any suit, action or
proceeding of the nature referred to in paragraph (b) hereof in any Federal or New York State court sitting in New York City. The Co-Borrower represents and warrants that such agent has agreed in writing to accept such appointment and that a
true copy of such designation and acceptance has been delivered to the Administrative Agent. If such agent shall cease so to act, the Co-Borrower covenants and agrees to designate irrevocably and appoint without delay another such agent satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent and to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent evidence in writing of such other agent’s acceptance of such appointment.]1 
 THE CO-BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS DESIGNATION LETTER, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.
