(30) days after the Public Debt Ratings first cease to be in effect, a corporate credit rating or a bank loan rating from Fitch, S&P and/or Moody’s (or, if neither Fitch, S&P nor Moody’s issues such types of ratings or ratings
comparable thereto, from another nationally recognized rating agency approved by each of the Borrower and the Agent), and from and after the date on which such corporate credit rating or bank loan rating is obtained until such time (if any) that a

Project, the creditworthiness of the other parties to such contracts, and projected revenues from such contracts, capital costs and expenses, scheduled Commercial Operation Date, oil and gas reserve and production estimates, commodity price
assumptions and other reasonable factors deemed appropriate by Agent), which may, at the Borrower’s option, be added to actual Consolidated EBITDA for the Borrower and the Consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal quarter in which construction

provided, in the event the actual Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and the Consolidated Subsidiaries attributable to such Qualified Project for any full fiscal quarter after the Commercial Operation Date shall materially differ from the
projected Consolidated EBITDA approved by Agent pursuant to clause (a) above for such fiscal quarter, the projected Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and the Consolidated Subsidiaries attributable to such Qualified Project for any remaining
fiscal quarters included in the foregoing calculation shall be redetermined in the same manner as set forth in clause (a) above, such amount to be approved by the Agent, which may, at the Borrower’s option, be added to actual Consolidated
EBITDA for the Borrower and the Consolidated Subsidiaries for such fiscal quarters.

Adjustments shall be determined in the manner set forth above for the Consolidated Subsidiaries, but based solely upon the projected (prior to the Commercial Operation Date) and actual (on and after the Commercial Operation Date) cash dividends
projected to be received or actually received by the Borrower from such subsidiary and (y) such subsidiary is financing such Qualified Project with funds from the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries (to the extent of the Borrower’s
pro rata ownership interest in such subsidiary), and the Agent has received a certificate from the Borrower to such effect, including such other information and documentation as the Agent may reasonably request, all in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Agent, and (iii) the aggregate amount of all Qualified Project EBITDA Adjustments during any period shall be limited to 20% of the total actual Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and the Consolidated Subsidiaries for such
period (which total actual Consolidated EBITDA shall be determined without including any Qualified Project EBITDA Adjustments).

 26 

 SECTION 2.01. The Advances. 

(a) Revolving Advances. Each Revolving Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Advances
to the Borrower (each such Advance, a “Revolving Advance”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the
amount set forth opposite such Revolving Lender’s name on the signature pages of the Existing Credit Agreement under the caption “Commitment” or, if such Revolving Lender has entered into any Assignment and Acceptance, set forth for
such Revolving Lender in the Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.07(d), as such amount may be reduced or increased pursuant to Section 2.05 (such Lender’s “Revolving Commitment”),
minus such Revolving Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure. Each Borrowing shall be in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall consist of Revolving Advances of the same Type made
on the same day by the Revolving Lenders ratably according to their respective Revolving Commitments. Within the limits of each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(a), prepay
pursuant to Section 2.10 and reborrow under this Section 2.01(a). 
 (b) Incremental Term Loans.
Subject to Section 2.20, the other terms and conditions set forth herein and the relevant Incremental Term Loan Agreement, each Incremental Term Lender severally agrees to make an Incremental Term Loan to the Borrower, at any time and
from time to time during the period from the effective date of the applicable Incremental Term Loan Agreement to forty (40) days following such date, which Incremental Term Loans: (i) may only be incurred on the date or dates set forth in
the relevant Incremental Term Loan Agreement; (ii) may be made in the form of a new Series of Incremental Term Loans or additional Incremental Term Loans under an existing Series of Incremental Term Loans, in each case to the extent provided
for in the relevant Incremental Term Loan Agreement; and (iii) shall be made by each such Incremental Term Lender in an aggregate principal amount which does not exceed the Incremental Term Commitment of such Incremental Term Lender (as set
forth in the relevant Incremental Term Loan Agreement); provided, however, that the Borrower may not request more than two (2) draws with respect to each Series of Incremental Term Loans, one of which must be on the effective date
of the applicable Incremental Term Loan Agreement. Once repaid or prepaid, Incremental Term Loans may not be reborrowed; provided that this Section 2.01(b) shall not limit the Borrower’s right to request additional
Incremental Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.20 hereof. The applicable Incremental Term Loan Agreement shall set forth whether the prepayment of the Incremental Term Loans shall automatically increase the aggregate amount of the
Revolving Commitments upon any prepayment thereof in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or capital expenditure, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in accordance with Section 2.05(f) and 5.14(d).

 SECTION 2.02. Making the Advances. 
 (a) Notice of Borrowing. Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 12:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the
case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or on the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by the Borrower to the Agent, which shall give to each Revolving Lender or

  
 27 

 
applicable Incremental Term Lender, as the case may be, prompt notice thereof. Each such notice by the Borrower of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone,
confirmed by the Borrower immediately in writing, by facsimile or an email with an attached .pdf of the Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing,
(ii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, (iv) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Advance and (v) whether such
Borrowing will consist of Revolving Advances or Incremental Term Loans, and if such Borrowing will consist of Incremental Term Loans, the applicable Series of Incremental Term Loans. Each Revolving Lender or applicable Incremental Term Lender, as
the case may be, shall, before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s Pro Rata
Share of such Borrowing. After the Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at the Agent’s address referred to
in Section 8.02. 
 (b) Certain Limitations. Anything in Section 2.02(a) to the contrary
notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for any Borrowing if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.13, and
(ii) the Eurodollar Rate Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than ten separate Borrowings. 
 (c) Indemnity
for Failure to Satisfy Conditions. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the
Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth
in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (other than loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by such Lender by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund
the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. 
 (d) Agent’s Right to Reimbursement with Interest. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the
Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Pro Rata Share available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.02(a) and the Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such Pro Rata Share available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree
to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available by the Agent to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at
(i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount,
such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. Nothing herein 

  
 28 

 
shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of a default
hereunder by such Lender. 
 (e) Each Lender Individually Responsible. The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be
made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance
to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.03. Issuance of, and Drawings and Reimbursement
Under, Letters of Credit. 
 (a) Existing Letters of Credit. On the Effective Date, without further action by any party
hereto, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued as a Letter of Credit under this Agreement, the Existing Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have granted to each Initial Lender, and each Initial Lender shall be
deemed to have acquired from the Existing Letter of Credit Issuer, a participation in each Existing Letter of Credit issued by such Existing Letter of Credit Issuer, equal to such Initial Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Exposure
with respect to each Existing Letter of Credit. Such participations shall be on all the same terms and conditions as participations granted under Section 2.03(d) in all other Letters of Credit issued or to be issued hereunder.

 (b) Request for Issuance. Letters of Credit denominated in dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies may be
issued hereunder in a Dollar Equivalent Amount that does not at the time of the issuance of such Letter of Credit exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments minus the sum of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Advances and Letter of Credit
Exposures of the Revolving Lenders at such time, provided that no Issuing Bank shall be required at any time to issue a Letter of Credit that would result in (x) the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures exceeding $250,000,000,
(y) the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank exceeding such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment or (z) the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the aggregate outstanding amount
of Letters of Credit issued hereunder denominated in Alternative Currencies exceeding $150,000,000. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice, given not later than 12:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date
of the proposed issuance of such Letter of Credit, by the Borrower to any Issuing Bank, which shall give to the Agent prompt notice thereof. Each such notice by the Borrower of issuance of a Letter of Credit (a “Notice of Issuance”)
shall be by telephone, confirmed by the Borrower immediately in writing in substantially the form of Exhibit C attached hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) face
amount of such Letter of Credit (which must be in dollars or an Alternative Currency), (iii) expiration date of such Letter of Credit (which shall be on or prior to the earlier of (A) the date one year after the date of the issuance of
such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (B) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Termination Date; provided that any Letter of Credit may
contain customary automatic renewal provisions agreed upon by the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to which the expiration date of such Letter of Credit shall automatically be extended for a period of up to twelve (12) months

  
 29 

 
(but not to a date later than the date that is five Business Days prior to the Termination Date, unless otherwise permitted pursuant to the immediately succeeding proviso), subject to a right on
the part of such Issuing Bank to prevent any such renewal from occurring by giving notice to the beneficiary and the Borrower in advance of any such renewal; provided, further that, with the prior consent of the applicable Issuing
Bank, in its sole discretion, a Letter of Credit may be extended beyond the fifth Business Day prior to the Termination Date (each such Letter of Credit with an expiration date that is later than five Business Days prior to the Termination Date, a
“Post-Maturity Letter of Credit”) so long as the Borrower shall Post-Maturity Cash Collateralize in accordance with Section 2.03(h)(ii) any Post-Maturity Letter of Credit); provided, further that no Letter
of Credit may expire after the date that is five Business Days prior to an Existing Termination Date in respect of any Declining Lenders under Section 2.05(e) if, after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit, the
aggregate Revolving Commitments of the Consenting Lenders (including any replacement Revolving Lenders ) for the period following such Existing Termination Date would be less than the Letter of Credit Exposure following such Existing Termination
Date), (iv) name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and (v) form of such Letter of Credit, and shall be accompanied by such application and agreement for letter of credit as such Issuing Bank may specify to the
Borrower for use in connection with such requested Letter of Credit (including, in connection with the issuance of a Post-Maturity Letter of Credit or the renewal of a Letter of Credit, such that, after giving effect to such renewal, such Letter of
Credit becomes a Post-Maturity Letter of Credit, such documentation, including a reimbursement agreement, as such Issuing Bank may reasonably require in connection with such issuance or renewal) (a “Letter of Credit Agreement”).
Upon receipt of a Notice of Issuance, the Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure in respect of such Letter of Credit. If the requested
form of such Letter of Credit is acceptable to such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion, such Issuing Bank will, upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, make such Letter of Credit available to the Borrower at
its office referred to in Section 8.02 or as otherwise agreed with the Borrower in connection with such issuance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Credit Agreement, a Letter of Credit issued hereunder may
contain a statement to the effect that such Letter of Credit is issued for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower; provided, that notwithstanding such statement, the Borrower shall be the actual account party for all
purposes of this Credit Agreement for such Letter of Credit and such statement shall not affect the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder with respect to such Letter of Credit. In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any
Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. The Borrower may from time to time request that Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros or
Pounds Sterling, provided that such requested currency is a lawful currency that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into dollars. Any such request shall be made to the Agent not later than twenty (20) Business
Days (or such other date as may be agreed by the Agent and the applicable Issuing Banks, in their sole discretion) prior to the date of the desired issuance of a Letter of Credit denominated in the requested currency. The Agent shall promptly notify
each Issuing Bank thereof. Each Issuing Bank shall notify the Agent not later than ten (10) Business Days (or such other date as may be agreed by the Agent and the applicable Issuing Banks, in their sole discretion) after receipt of such
request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency. Any failure by an Issuing Bank to respond to 

  
 30 

 
such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed a refusal by such Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency. If one or more Issuing
Banks consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Agent shall so notify the Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for Letter of Credit issuances
by those Issuing Banks consenting thereto. If the Agent shall fail to obtain consent for an additional currency under this Section 2.03(b), the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower. 

(c) Issuing Bank Reports. Unless otherwise agreed by the Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Agent (i) on
or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the aggregate face amount of the Letters
of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the Dollar Equivalent Amount thereof shall have changed), it being understood that such Issuing
Bank shall not effect any issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Letters of Credit issued by it without first obtaining written confirmation from the Agent that such
increase is then permitted under this Agreement, (ii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any Letter of Credit Disbursement, the date and the Dollar Equivalent Amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement, (iii) on any
Business Day on which a Borrower fails to reimburse a Letter of Credit Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the Dollar Equivalent Amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement and
(iv) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. 
 (d) Participations in Letters of Credit. Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit by any Issuing Bank under Section 2.03(b), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed, without further action by
any party hereto, to have sold to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have purchased from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit in the amount for each
Revolving Lender equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its
obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstances 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 Revolving Commitments. 
 (e)
Drawings Under Letters of Credit; Reimbursement; Interim Interest. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall notify the Agent and the Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrower and each other Revolving Lender as to the Dollar Equivalent Amount to be paid as a result of such demand or drawing and the payment date. The Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the
Issuing Bank, by no later than 12:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such drawing, in the applicable currency for any amounts paid by the Issuing

  
 31 

 
Bank upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to
borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.02 that such payment be financed with a Base Rate Revolving Advance 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 Base Rate Revolving Advance. If the Borrower fails to make such reimbursement payment when due, the Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable Letter of Credit Disbursement,
the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof (the “Unreimbursed Amount”) and the Dollar Equivalent Amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving
Lender shall pay to the Agent the Dollar Equivalent Amount of its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02 with respect to Revolving Advances made by such Revolving Lender (and
Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders in dollars or, if
requested by such Issuing Bank, the equivalent amount thereof in the applicable Alternative Currency as determined by the Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank at such time on the basis of the Spot Rate (determined as of such funding date) for the
purchase of such Alternative Currency with dollars. Promptly following receipt by the Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.03(e), the Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent
that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this Section 2.03(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant
to this Section 2.03(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit Disbursement shall not constitute a Revolving Advance and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank for such Letter of
Credit Disbursement. All such amounts paid by the Issuing Bank (whether or not the Dollar Equivalent Amount of their Pro Rata Shares of such amounts have been paid to the Issuing Bank by the Revolving Lenders as provided above) and remaining unpaid
by the Borrower shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for such day plus, if such amount remains unpaid for more than three Business Days, 2%. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the Revolving Lenders shall not have any obligation to reimburse any Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit Disbursement made under any Post-Maturity Letter of Credit that occurs on or after the Termination Date.

 (f) Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Borrower under Section 2.03(e) above shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation the following circumstances: 

(i) the use that may be made of the Letter of Credit by, or any acts or omission of, a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit
(or any Person for whom the beneficiary may be acting); 
 (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or
other rights that the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom the beneficiary may be acting), the Lenders (including the Issuing Bank) or any other Person, whether in connection with this
Agreement or the Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto or any 

  
 32 

 
unrelated transaction; 
 (iii) any statement or any 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 whatsoever; 

(iv) payment under a Letter of Credit to the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit against presentation to the Issuing Bank
of a draft or certificate that does not comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit; provided that the determination by the Issuing Bank to make such payment shall not have been the result of its willful misconduct or gross negligence;

 (v) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative
Currency to the Borrower or the relevant currency markets generally; or 
 (vi) any other act or omission to act
or delay of any kind by any Lender (including the Issuing Bank), the Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this clause (vi), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of
the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 
 None of the Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, or any of their Affiliates shall have any
liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding
sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any
error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the
extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the
Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the
generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make
payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the
terms of such Letter of Credit. 
 (g) Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with
the consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed 

  
 33 

 
or conditioned) and such Revolving Lender, designate one or more additional Revolving Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement. Any Revolving Lender designated as an
issuing bank pursuant to this Section 2.03(g) shall, upon entering into a Letter of Credit Agreement with the Borrower, be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Revolving Lender) hereunder. 

(h) Cash Collateralization. (i) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower
receives notice from the Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Revolving Advances has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures representing greater than 50% of the aggregate Letter
of Credit Exposures) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.03(h)(i), the Borrower shall deposit (“Cash Collateralize”) in an account with the Agent, in the name of the Agent and for the benefit of the
Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Banks, an amount in cash equal to the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to Cash Collateralize shall become effective
immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in Section 6.01(e). Each such deposit shall
be held by the Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York,
including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and
expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for Letter of Credit 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 for the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures at such time or, if the maturity of the
Revolving Advances has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with Letter of Credit Exposures representing greater than 50% of the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the
Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower
within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. 
 (ii) If any Post-Maturity
Letters of Credit remain outstanding as of the date that is (x) five Business Days prior to the Termination Date if Investment Grade Status exists as to the Borrower at such time or (y) ninety (90) days prior to the Termination Date
if Investment Grade Status does not exist as to the Borrower at such time (such date being referred to herein as the “Cash Collateralization Date”), the Borrower shall, on the Cash Collateralization Date, deposit
(“Post-Maturity Cash Collateralize”) in an account with each Issuing Bank that has issued any such Post-Maturity Letter of Credit, in the name of such Issuing Bank and for the benefit of such Issuing Bank and, prior to the
Termination Date, the Revolving Lenders (each, an “Issuing Bank LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 102% of the aggregate amount (as determined in accordance with Section 1.05) of all outstanding
Post-Maturity Letters of Credit issued 

  
 34 

 
by such Issuing Bank. In addition, if (x) the Borrower requests that a Post-Maturity Letter of Credit be issued, or a Letter of Credit be renewed (or if any Letter of Credit is automatically
renewed for an additional one-year period), such that, after giving effect to such renewal, such Letter of Credit becomes a Post-Maturity Letter of Credit, by an Issuing Bank after the Cash Collateralization Date but before the Termination Date and
(y) such Issuing Bank agrees to issue such Post-Maturity Letter of Credit or renew such Letter of Credit, then, as a condition to such issuance or renewal, the Borrower shall deposit in such Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank LC Collateral
Account an amount in cash equal to 102% of the amount (as determined in accordance with Section 1.05) of such Post-Maturity Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit to be renewed, as applicable. Any such deposits pursuant to this
Section 2.03(h)(ii) shall be held by each applicable Issuing Bank in its Issuing Bank LC Collateral Account as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse such Issuing Bank for Letter of
Credit Disbursements made by such Issuing Bank under each Post-Maturity Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. Each Issuing Bank shall have exclusive dominion and control, as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York,
including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over its Issuing Bank LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of each Issuing Bank and
at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in each Issuing Bank LC Collateral Account shall be applied by the applicable
Issuing Bank to reimburse such Issuing Bank for Letter of Credit Disbursements made by such Issuing Bank in respect of Post-Maturity Letters of Credit for which it has not been reimbursed, fees related to such Post-Maturity Letters of Credit and, to
the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse such Issuing Bank for Letter of Credit Disbursements made by such Issuing Bank in respect of Post-Maturity Letters of Credit issued by such
Issuing Bank. If an Issuing Bank has issued more than one Post-Maturity Letter of Credit for which cash collateral was provided pursuant to this Section 2.03(h)(ii), upon the cancellation, surrender, or payment of any such Post-Maturity
Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank that issued such Post-Maturity Letter of Credit shall promptly release cash collateral to the Borrower equal to the difference between (A) the total available funds in such Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank LC
Collateral Account and (B) 102% of the aggregate amount (as determined in accordance with Section 1.05) of all Post-Maturity Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank that remain outstanding. Promptly after the cancellation,
surrender, or payment of all Post-Maturity Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank for which cash collateral was provided pursuant to this Section 2.03(h)(ii), such Issuing Bank shall return to the Borrower all available funds, if
any, in such Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank LC Collateral Account. This Section 2.03(h)(ii) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder. 

SECTION 2.04. Fees. 
 (a) Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a facility fee on the average daily amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment
(whether used or unused) from the Effective Date in the case of each 

  
 35 

 
Initial Lender, and from the later of the Effective Date and the effective date specified in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Revolving Lender in the case of each other
Revolving Lender, until the Termination Date at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing December 31,
2011, and on the Termination Date. 
 (b) Letter of Credit Fees, Etc. 

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender (including each Issuing Bank) a fee,
payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing December 31, 2011, and on the Termination Date, on such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the average daily amount of the aggregate
Letter of Credit Exposures during such quarter at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Revolving Advances. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such
Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.05. 
 (ii) The Borrower shall pay
to each Issuing Bank, for its own account a fronting fee, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing December 31, 2011, and on the Termination Date, on the Dollar Equivalent Amount of
the average daily amount of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank at the rate of 0.15% per annum or such other rate as may be agreed by the Borrower and such Issuing Bank, as well as the Issuing Bank’s customary administrative,
issuance, amendment, payment and negotiation charges. 
 (iii) The Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Bank, for
its own account a letter of credit fee with respect to each Post-Maturity Letter of Credit during the period from the Termination Date to but excluding the date on which such Post-Maturity Letter of Credit expires, at a rate and payable on such
dates during such period as the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower shall reasonably agree upon at the time of issuance of such Post-Maturity Letter of Credit. This Section 2.04(b)(iii) shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder. 
 (c) Agent’s Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the
Agent for its own account the fees specified in the Agent Fee Letter. 
 SECTION 2.05. Termination, Reduction, Increase and
Extension of Commitments. 
 (a) Termination Date. Unless previously terminated, (i) the Revolving Commitments
and the Letter of Credit Commitments shall terminate on the Termination Date, and (ii) the Incremental Term Commitments provided pursuant to a particular Incremental Term Loan Agreement shall terminate on the date set forth in the applicable
Incremental Term Loan Agreement. 
 (b) Optional Termination or Reduction of Commitments. 

  
 36 

 (i) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the
Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount that is at least $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate
or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Advances in accordance with Section 2.10, the sum of the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures and the aggregate Revolving Advances
would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments. 
 (ii) The Borrower may (unless otherwise provided in the
applicable Incremental Term Loan Agreement), upon notice to the Agent, terminate any Incremental Term Commitments provided pursuant to the applicable Incremental Term Loan Agreement, or from time to time permanently reduce any Incremental Term
Commitments provided pursuant to the applicable Incremental Term Loan Agreement in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or as may otherwise be provided in the respective Incremental Term Loan Agreement); provided that each such reduction shall
apply proportionately to permanently reduce the Incremental Term Commitments of the applicable Incremental Term Lenders provided pursuant to the applicable Incremental Term Loan Agreement. 

(c) Notice of Termination or Reduction. The Borrower shall notify the Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments
under Section 2.05(b) at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Agent shall advise
the Lenders of the applicable Class of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the
Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is
not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably (based upon their Pro Rata Shares) among the Lenders of the applicable Class in accordance with their
respective Commitments. 
 (d) Aggregate Revolving Commitment Increases. 

(i) The Borrower may on one or more occasions, without the consent of the Lenders, but subject to the approval of each
Issuing Bank (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and by written notice to the Agent, executed by the Borrower and one or more financial institutions (any such financial institution referred to in this
Section 2.05(d) being called an “Increasing Lender”), which may include any Revolving Lender, cause new Revolving Commitments to be extended by the Increasing Lenders or cause the existing Revolving Commitments of the
Increasing Lenders to be increased, as the case may be (any such extension or increase, a “Commitment Increase”), in an amount for each Increasing Lender (which shall not be less than $25,000,000) set forth in such notice;
provided that any Revolving Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the increased or new Revolving Commitments 

  
 37 

 
may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such increased or new Revolving Commitment; provided, further, that (i) at no time shall the aggregate amount of
Revolving Commitments, including Commitment Increases effected pursuant to this Section 2.05(d) and Revolving Commitment increases pursuant to Section 2.05(f), exceed $1,050,000,000 less the aggregate principal amount
outstanding under any Incremental Term Loans that by their terms automatically increase the Revolving Commitments upon any prepayment thereof in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or capital expenditure as provided in
Section 2.05(f) and 5.14(d), (ii) each Increasing Lender shall be subject to the approval of each Issuing Bank (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and (iii) each Increasing Lender,
if not already a Revolving Lender hereunder, shall become a party to this Agreement by completing and delivering to the Agent a duly executed accession agreement in a form satisfactory to the Agent and the Borrower (an “Accession
Agreement”). New Revolving Commitments and increases in Revolving Commitments shall become effective on the date specified in the applicable notices delivered pursuant to this Section 2.05(d); provided that the other
conditions set forth in this Section 2.05(d) have been satisfied. Upon the effectiveness of any Accession Agreement to which any Increasing Lender is a party, (i) such Increasing Lender shall thereafter be deemed to be a party to
this Agreement and shall be entitled to all rights, benefits and privileges accorded a Revolving Lender hereunder and subject to all obligations of a Revolving Lender hereunder and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall be deemed to have been
amended to reflect the Revolving Commitment of such Increasing Lender as provided in such Accession Agreement. Upon the effectiveness of any increase pursuant to this Section 2.05(d) in the Revolving Commitment of a Revolving Lender
already a party hereto, the Revolving Commitments shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the increased Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender. 
 (ii) On the effective date of any Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section 2.05(d) (the “Increase Effective Date”), (A) the aggregate principal amount of the
Revolving Advances outstanding (the “Initial Advances”) immediately prior to giving effect to the applicable Commitment Increase on the Increase Effective Date shall be deemed to be repaid, (B) after the effectiveness of the
Commitment Increase, the Borrower shall be deemed to have made new Revolving Borrowings (the “Subsequent Borrowings”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Advances and of the Types
and for the Interest Periods specified in a Notice of Borrowing delivered to the Agent in accordance with Section 2.02(a), (C) each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Agent in same day funds an amount equal to the difference, if
positive, between (x) such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the Subsequent Borrowings and (y) such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share (calculated without giving
effect to the Commitment Increase) of the Initial Advances, (D) after the Agent receives the funds specified in clause (C) above, the Agent shall pay to each Revolving Lender the portion of such funds that is equal to the
difference, if positive, between (1) such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share (calculated without giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the Initial Advances and (2) such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share (calculated after
giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the amount of the Subsequent Borrowings, (E) each Increasing Lender and each other Revolving Lender shall be deemed to hold its 

  
 38 

 
Revolving Advances of each Subsequent Borrowing (each calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) and (F) the Borrower shall pay each Increasing Lender and each other
Revolving Lender any and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Initial Advances. The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (A) above in respect of each Eurodollar Rate Advance shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrower
pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.11 if the Increase Effective Date occurs other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto and breakage costs result. 

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Revolving Commitments (or in any Revolving Commitment of any
Revolving Lender) shall become effective under this Section 2.05(d) unless, on the date of such increase, the conditions set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 3.02 shall be satisfied (with all
references in such clauses to a Borrowing being deemed to be references to such increase and without giving effect to the first parenthetical in Section 3.02(a)) and the Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such
date and executed by the Chief Financial Officer or the Treasurer of the Ultimate General Partner (in its capacity as general partner of the General Partner, in its capacity as general partner of the Borrower). 

(e) Extension of Termination Date. The Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to each of
the Lenders in the applicable Class) (i) not less than 45 days prior to any anniversary of the Effective Date, and on not more than two occasions, request that the Revolving Lenders extend the Termination Date and the Revolving Commitments for
an additional period of one year and (ii) not less than 45 days prior to any anniversary of the effective date of any applicable Incremental Term Loan Agreement, make unlimited requests that the applicable Series of Incremental Term Lenders
extend the Incremental Term Loan Termination Date with respect to such Series for an additional period of one year. Each Lender in the applicable Class shall, by notice to the Borrower and the Agent given not later than the 20th day after the date
of the Agent’s receipt of the Borrower’s extension request, advise the Borrower whether or not it agrees to the requested extension (each such Lender in the applicable Class agreeing to a requested extension being called a
“Consenting Lender” and each such Lender in the applicable Class declining to agree to a requested extension being called a “Declining Lender”). Any Lender in the applicable Class that has not so advised the
Borrower and the Agent by such day shall be deemed to have declined to agree to such extension and shall be a Declining Lender. If (i) Revolving Lenders constituting the Required Revolving Lenders shall have agreed to an extension request, then
the Termination Date shall, as to the Consenting Lenders in the applicable Class, be extended to the first anniversary of the Termination Date theretofore in effect and (ii) Incremental Term Lenders constituting the Required Incremental Term
Lenders for such Series shall have agreed to an extension request, then the applicable Incremental Term Loan Termination Date for such Series shall, as to the Consenting Lenders in the applicable Class, be extended to the first anniversary of the
applicable Incremental Term Loan Termination Date theretofore in effect. The decision to agree or withhold agreement to any Termination Date extension or Incremental Term Loan Termination Date extension, as applicable, shall be at the sole
discretion of each Lender in the applicable Class. The Commitment and Advances of any Declining Lender in the applicable Class shall terminate and be payable in full on the Termination Date or Incremental Term Loan Termination Date, as applicable,
in effect as to such Lender prior to giving effect to any such extension (such Termination Date being called the “Existing Termination Date” and such Incremental Term Loan 

  
 39 

 
Termination Date being called the “Existing Term Loan Termination Date”). The principal amount of any outstanding Revolving Advances made by Declining Lenders in the applicable
Class, together with any accrued interest thereon and any accrued fees and other amounts payable to or for the accounts of such Declining Lenders hereunder, shall be due and payable on the Existing Termination Date, and on the Existing Termination
Date the Borrower shall also make such other prepayments of its Revolving Borrowings as shall be required in order that, after giving effect to the termination of the Revolving Commitments of, and all payments to, such Declining Lenders pursuant to
this sentence, the sum of the aggregate Revolving Advances and the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments. If, after making the prepayments pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence the sum of
the aggregate Revolving Advances and the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, then the Borrower shall immediately deposit cash collateral in an account with the Agent, in the name of the Agent and for the
benefit of the Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Banks (such deposit to be held by the Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.03(h)(i)), in
an amount such that, after giving effect to such cash collateralization and the termination of the Revolving Commitments of, and all payments to, the Declining Lenders in the applicable Class pursuant to the preceding sentence, the sum of the
aggregate Revolving Advances and the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures not cash collateralized in accordance with this sentence shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments. The principal amount of any outstanding Series of Incremental
Term Loan Advances made by Declining Lenders in the applicable Class, together with any accrued interest thereon and any accrued fees and other amounts payable to or for the accounts of such Declining Lenders hereunder, shall be due and payable on
the Existing Incremental Term Loan Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.05(e), the Borrower shall have the right, pursuant to Section 2.18(b), at any time prior to the Existing
Termination Date or Existing Incremental Term Loan Termination Date, as applicable, to replace a Declining Lender in the applicable Class with a Lender or other financial institution that will agree to a request for the extension of the Termination
Date or Incremental Term Loan Termination Date, as applicable, and any such replacement Lender shall for all purposes constitute a Consenting Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no extension of the Termination Date or Incremental Term Loan
Termination Date, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.05(e) shall become effective unless (i) on the anniversary of the Effective Date or effective date of the Incremental Term Loan Agreement, as applicable, that immediately
follows the date on which the Borrower delivers the applicable request for extension of the Termination Date or Incremental Term Loan Termination Date, as applicable, the conditions set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of
Section 3.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such clauses to a Borrowing being deemed to be references to such extension and without giving effect to the first parenthetical in Section 3.02(a)) and the Agent shall
have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by the Chief Financial Officer or the Treasurer of the Borrower. 
 (f) Automatic Increases in the Aggregate Revolving Commitments. So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be automatically increased
(without the consent of the Lenders) and Revolving Advances shall be made under such increased Revolving Commitments from time to time in order to prepay the Incremental Term Loans to the extent set forth in the applicable Incremental Term Loan
Agreement in accordance with Section 5.14(d). Upon any such increase, (i) each 

  
 40 

 
Incremental Term Lender’s Revolving Commitment shall be increased automatically by the amount of the Incremental Term Loan made by such Incremental Term Lender that is being prepaid on such
date (or if such Incremental Term Lender is not already a Lender with a Revolving Commitment, such Incremental Term Lender shall become a Revolving Lender with a Revolving Commitment equal to the aforementioned amount) and (ii) if any Revolving
Advances are outstanding at the time of such increase in the Revolving Commitments, the Borrower will prepay (provided that any such prepayment shall be subject to Section 2.11) one or more existing Revolving Advances in an amount
necessary such that after giving effect to the increase in the Revolving Commitments, each Revolving Lender will hold its Pro Rata Share (as revised due to the increase in the Revolving Commitments) of outstanding Revolving Advances. For the
avoidance of doubt, no Revolving Commitment or Pro Rata Share of any Lender other than Incremental Term Lenders shall be subject to increase pursuant to this Section 2.05(f) or Section 5.14(d). 

SECTION 2.06. Interest on Advances. 
 (a) Scheduled Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid
in full, at the following rates per annum: 
 (i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance
is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each
March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full. 
 (ii) Eurodollar Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Eurodollar Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of
(x) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of
more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period, and on the date such Eurodollar Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full. 

(b) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Advance or any fee or other amount
payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, payable on demand, for each day from and including the
date payment thereof was due to but excluding the date of actual payment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Advance, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Advance as provided in
Section 2.06(a) or (ii) in the case of any overdue interest, fees and other amounts, 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Revolving Advances as provided in clause (a)(i) of this Section. 

(c) Notice of Interest Period and Interest Rate. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to
Section 2.02(a), a notice of Conversion pursuant to Section 2.08  

  
 41 

 
or a notice of selection of an Interest Period pursuant to the terms of the definition of “Interest Period,” the Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and applicable Revolving Lenders
or Incremental Term Lenders, as the case may be, of the applicable Interest Period and the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above. 

SECTION 2.07. Interest Rate Determination. 

(a) Eurodollar Rate Inadequate. If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, Lenders of any Class having at least 66-2/3% of
the sum of (i) in the case of Revolving Lenders, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Advances at such time plus the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures at such time and (ii) in the case of Incremental Term
Lenders, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the applicable Series of Incremental Term Loans at such time, notify the Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such
Required Revolving Lenders or Required Incremental Term Lenders, as the case may be, of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the
applicable Class of Lenders, whereupon (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance, and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders of the
applicable Class to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and such Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 

(b) Failure of Borrower to Select Interest Period. If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for
any Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable Class and such
Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, be deemed to be Eurodollar Rate Advances with a one-month Interest Period. 
 (c) [Intentionally Omitted] 
 (d) Conversion Due to Event of Default. Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation
of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended. 
 SECTION 2.08. Optional
Conversion of Advances. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Agent not later than 12:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion for Conversions into Eurodollar
Rate Advances and on the date of the proposed Conversion for conversions into Base Rate Advances and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.07 and 2.13, Convert all Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of
the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances
into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than an aggregate 

  
 42 

 
amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under
Section 2.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar
Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Eurodollar Rate Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 
 SECTION 2.09. Mandatory Payments and Prepayments of Advances. 
 (a) Termination
Date. 
 (i) On the Termination Date, the Borrower shall repay to the Agent for the ratable account of the
Revolving Lenders the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Advances then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment. 
 (ii) On the applicable Incremental Term Loan Termination Date and on any other dates and in the amounts set forth in the respective Incremental Term Loan Agreement, the Borrower shall repay to the Agent
for the ratable account of the applicable Incremental Term Lenders the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Incremental Term Loans of the applicable Series, together will accrued interest thereon to the date of payment. 

(b) Outstandings in Excess of Commitments. At any time that the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Advances outstanding
plus the aggregate Letter of Credit Exposures exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments (an “Excess”), including, without limitation, as a result of currency exchange rate fluctuations with respect to Letters of Credit
denominated in Alternative Currencies, the Borrower shall immediately prepay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Revolving Lenders, in whole or in part, a principal amount of Revolving Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing(s)
selected by the Borrower that will eliminate the Excess, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate
Advance, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Revolving Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.11; provided, further, that in the event an Excess remains after prepayment in full of all of the
Revolving Advances, the Borrower shall immediately deposit cash collateral in an account with the Agent, in the name of the Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Banks (such deposit to be held by the Agent as collateral
for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.03(h)(i)), in an amount equal to such Excess. 
 SECTION 2.10. Optional Prepayments of Advances. The Borrower may, upon at least two Business Days’ notice (in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances) or upon notice (in the case of Base Rate
Advances) given on the date of such prepayment, in each case received not later than 12:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such date to the Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, which notice shall be
irrevocable, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay for the ratable account of the Lenders of the applicable Class, in whole or in part, the outstanding principal amount of the Advances comprising part of

  
 43 

 
the same Borrowing(s), together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, that a notice of prepayment of all outstanding Advances may
state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not
satisfied; provided further, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) in the event of any such
prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders of the applicable Class in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.11. Any prepayment of Incremental Term Loans that by their terms
automatically increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments upon any prepayment thereof in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or capital expenditure, in accordance with Sections 2.05(f) and 5.14(d), in connection with
such a Permitted Acquisition or capital expenditure, shall, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, cause each applicable Incremental Term Lender’s Revolving Commitments to be increased in accordance with
Section 2.05(f) and Revolving Advances to be made to the Borrower in accordance with Section 5.14(d) in order to make such prepayment of the Incremental Term Loans. Any prepayment of Incremental Term Loans shall be applied
first (x) to Incremental Term Loans in the applicable Series that by their terms automatically increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments upon any prepayment thereof in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or capital
expenditure, to be applied to such Incremental Term Loans in the applicable Series in the order in which such Incremental Term Loans were made, and then (y) to the remaining Incremental Term Loans in the applicable Series. 

SECTION 2.11. Funding Losses . If the Borrower makes any payment of principal with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advance or any
Eurodollar Rate Advance is Converted to a Base Rate Advance or continued as a Eurodollar Rate Advance for a new Interest Period (pursuant to Article II or VI or otherwise) on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period
applicable thereto, or if the Borrower fails (for a reason other than the failure of a Lender to make an Advance) to borrow, prepay (except as otherwise permitted hereunder), Convert or continue any Eurodollar Rate Advance after notice has been
given to any Lender in accordance with Section 2.02(a), 2.08 or 2.10 or pursuant to the terms of the definition of “Interest Period,” the Borrower shall reimburse each Lender of the applicable Class within 15 days
after demand for any resulting loss or expense incurred by it (or by an existing or prospective participant in the related Advance), including (without limitation) any actual loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third
parties, but excluding loss of anticipated profits and margin for the period after any such payment or Conversion or failure to borrow, prepay, Convert or continue; provided that such Lender shall have delivered to the Borrower a certificate
setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such loss or expense, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 SECTION 2.12. Increased Costs. 
 (a) General. If, due to any Change
in Law, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances or of issuing or participating in any Letter of Credit (excluding for purposes of this
Section 2.12 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.15 shall govern) and (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of any taxes described in

  
 44 

 
Section 2.15(a)(i) or (ii)), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon written notice and written demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to
the Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost, such increased cost to be determined by such Lender using its customary methods therefor (and, if such Lender uses from time to
time more than one such method, the method chosen for application hereunder shall be that method which most accurately determines such increased cost); provided that no such amount shall be payable with respect to any period commencing more
than 150 days prior to the date such Lender first notifies the Borrower of its intention to demand compensation hereunder. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost (demonstrating in reasonable detail, the calculations used by such
Lender to determine such estimated increased cost), submitted to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(b) Capital Adequacy. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any corporation
controlling such Lender, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or the capital of any corporation controlling such Lender, if any, as a
consequence of this Agreement, such Lender’s Commitment hereunder or the Advances made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking
into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of any corporation controlling such Lender with respect to capital or liquidity requirements) then, upon written notice and written demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to
the Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation for any reduction suffered in light of such circumstances; provided
that no such amount shall be payable with respect to any period commencing more than 150 days prior to the date such Lender first notifies the Borrower of its intention to demand compensation hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts
(demonstrating in reasonable detail, the calculations used by such Lender to determine such estimated increased cost) submitted to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 SECTION 2.13. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent
that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to
perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, (a) each Eurodollar Rate Advance of such Lender will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate
Advance, and (b) the obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to Convert Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders in the applicable Class that the
circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 
 SECTION 2.14. Payments and Computations. 

(a) General Provisions. The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes, irrespective of any right of
counterclaim or set-off, not later than 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in dollars to the Agent at the Agent’s Account in 

  
 45 

 
same day funds. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or facility fees ratably, based upon the respective Pro Rata
Shares of the Lenders of the applicable Class of Advances for which such payment relates (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c), 2.05(d), 2.11, 2.12, 2.15 or 8.04(b)), to the Lenders of
the applicable Class for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any such Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case
to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.07(c), from and after the
effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignor thereunder for amounts that have accrued to but excluding
the effective date of such assignment, and to the Lender assignee for amounts that have accrued from and after the effective date of such assignment. 
 (b) Basis of Calculation. All computations of facility fees and interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all
computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate and Letter of Credit fees shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring
in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(c) Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other
than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or facility fee, as the case may be; provided,
however, that, if such extension would cause (i) any payment to be made after the Termination Date or the applicable Incremental Term Loan Termination Date, as applicable or (ii) payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar
Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. 

(d) Agent Entitled to Assume Payments Made. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on
which any payment is due to any or all of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon
such assumption, cause to be distributed to each applicable Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each applicable
Lender shall repay to the 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
Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. 
 (e) Order of Application. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement (including
Section 6.02 hereof) if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed Letter of Credit Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall
be applied (i) first, towards payment of 

  
 46 

 
interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards
payment of principal of the Advances and unreimbursed Letter of Credit Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed Letter of Credit Disbursements then due
to such parties. 
 (f) Application of Funds to Lender’s Obligations. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment
required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(d), 2.03(d), 2.03(e), 2.05(d) or 2.14(e), then the Agent may, in its discretion notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts
thereafter received by it for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold such amounts in a segregated account over which the
Agent shall have exclusive control as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined
by the Agent in its discretion. 
 SECTION 2.15. Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender, the Agent or any other
Person hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.14 or the applicable provisions of such other documents, free and clear of and without deduction for any and
all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender, the Agent or such other Person, (i) taxes imposed on (or measured by) its
overall net income, net profits or net worth, and franchise or similar taxes, by the United States of America or by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender, the Agent or such other Person (as the case may be) is organized or is
otherwise doing business, or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on (or measured by), in whole or in part, its overall net income, net profits or net worth, and franchise or similar taxes, by the
jurisdiction of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (including, without limitation, any withholding of taxes described in this Section 2.15(a)(i) that is treated under applicable law as a
prepayment of taxes), (ii) any branch profits taxes imposed by the United States of America or any similar tax imposed by any other jurisdiction in which such Person is located, (iii) any taxes imposed as a result of such Person’s
willful misconduct, (iv) in the case of a Lender (other than an assignee pursuant to a request by the Borrower under Section 2.18(b)), any U.S. withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to such Lender by any law in effect
at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new Applicable Lending Office), except to the extent that such Lender (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time of designation of a new Applicable Lending Office
(or assignment), to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such withholding tax pursuant to this Section 2.15(a), (v) any U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed under FATCA, (vi) in the case of an Agent,
any U.S. withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to such Agent by any law in effect at the time such Agent becomes a party to this Agreement solely as a result of such Agent being organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the
United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, (vii) taxes attributable to its failure to comply with Section 2.15(f), (g), (i) or (j) and (viii) any interest, penalties or
additions to tax imposed on any taxes described in 

  
 47 

 
Sections 2.15(a)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) (all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and liabilities with respect
thereto not excluded under Section 2.15(a)(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) or (viii) in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be
delivered hereunder being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, or any liabilities with respect thereto, from or in
respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note or any other documents to be delivered hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, (i) to the extent such deduction is for Taxes or Other Taxes (as hereinafter defined), the sum payable shall be
increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the
sum it would have received had no such deductions for Taxes or Other Taxes been made, (ii) the Borrower (as applicable) shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower (as applicable) shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any
present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or from the execution,
delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder, excluding, however, such taxes imposed with respect to an assignment following the primary
syndication (other than an assignment that occurs as a result of the Borrower’s request pursuant to Section 2.18) that would not have been imposed but for a present or former connection between any Lender and the jurisdiction
imposing such taxes (other than solely on account of the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder) (hereinafter referred to
as “Other Taxes”). 
 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Agent for and hold it harmless
against the full amount, without duplication, of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, Taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.15) imposed on or paid by such Lender
or the Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties and interest) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) makes
written demand therefor and provides appropriate computational and, to the extent available, documentary support. 
 (d) As soon
as practicable after any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.15, the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt
evidencing such payment to the extent that such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. 
 (e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any governmental authority that
are attributable to such Lender and that are payable or paid by 

  
 48 

 
the Agent in connection with this Agreement or any Note or any other documents to be delivered hereunder, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such taxes and other liabilities and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), whether or not such taxes or other liabilities were correctly
or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant governmental authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the
Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any Note or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any
amount due to the Agent under this paragraph (e). 
 (f) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
withholding tax with respect to payments made hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such
properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the
Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections
2.15(g), (h) and (i) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would
materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (g) Each Lender that is not a United States Person, as
defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “Foreign Lender”), shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each
Initial Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower or the Agent (but only so
long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Agent and the Borrower with (i) two duly completed and properly executed originals of United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI or any applicable
successor form, as the case may be, certifying that such Foreign Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes, (ii) in the case of a Foreign Lender
claiming exemption from United States federal withholding tax under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 and two duly
completed and properly executed originals of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or any applicable successor form, or (iii) to the extent such Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, two duly completed and properly executed
originals of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-9, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit F-3 or F-4, and/or other certification
documents from each beneficial owner, 

  
 49 

 
as applicable; provided that if such Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign
Lender may provide a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner. 
 (h) If a payment made to a Lender hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to
fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or
times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such
additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s
obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (h), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(i) Each Lender and Agent that is a United States Person, as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code (other than
persons that are corporations or otherwise exempt from United States backup withholding tax), shall deliver at the time(s) and in the manner(s) prescribed by applicable law, to each of the Borrower and the Agent (as applicable) two original properly
completed and duly executed United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9 or any successor form, certifying that such Person is exempt from United States backup withholding tax on payments made hereunder. 

(j) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to Section 2.15(f), (g),
(h) or (i) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(k) For the avoidance of doubt, for any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate
form, certificate or other document described in Section 2.15(g) or (i) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally
was required to be provided, or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under Section 2.15(g) or (i)), such Lender shall not be entitled to increased payments or indemnification under
Section 2.15(a) or (c) with respect to taxes or Other Taxes imposed by reason of such failure; provided, however, that the Borrower shall take such steps as the Lender shall reasonably request (at the sole
expense of such Lender) to assist the Lender to recover such taxes or Other Taxes (it being understood, however, that the Borrower shall have no liability to such Lender in respect of such taxes or Other Taxes). 

(l) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as
to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.15 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this 

  
 50 

 
Section 2.15), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made by such indemnifying party under this Section
with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with
respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (l) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant governmental authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (l), in no event will the
indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (l) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would
have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. 
 (m) For
purposes of this Section 2.15, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank. 
 Nothing contained in this
Section 2.15 shall require any Lender or the Agent to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems to be confidential). 

SECTION 2.16. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Advances or funded participations in Letter of Credit Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances
and participations in Letter of Credit Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender of the applicable Class, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in the Advances and participations in Letter of Credit Disbursements of other Lenders of the applicable Class to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders of the applicable Class
ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Advances and participations in Letter of Credit Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or
any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.16 shall
not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its
Advances or participations in Letter of Credit Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.16 shall apply). The Borrower
consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set off and counterclaim
with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

  
 51 

 SECTION 2.17. Notes. The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the
Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Agent) to the effect that a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the
Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender, with a copy to the Agent, a Revolving Note or an Incremental Term Note, as applicable, payable to the order of such Lender. 

SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Mitigation. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its
Advances or Letter of Credit Disbursements hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would
eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to
such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) Replacement of Lender. If (i) any Lender requests, or provides notice to the Borrower that it intends to request, compensation under Section 2.12, (ii) the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (iv) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting
Lender or (v) any Lender becomes a Declining Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject
to the restrictions contained in Section 8.07), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);
provided that (A) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank), which consent, in each case, shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed,
(B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of its Advances and funded participations in Letter of Credit Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable
to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal, funded participations and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (C) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a
claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments, (D) in the case of any such
assignment resulting from the status of such Lender as a Non-Consenting Lender, such assignment, together with any assignments by other Non-Consenting Lenders, will enable the Borrower to obtain sufficient consents to cause the applicable amendment,
modification or waiver to become effective and (E) in the case of any such assignment resulting from the status of such Lender as a Declining Lender, the assignee of such Declining Lender is a Consenting Lender. A Lender shall not be required
to make any such 

  
 52 

 
assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to
apply. 
 SECTION 2.19. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any
Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) fees shall cease to accrue on the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(a); 
 (b) the unpaid principal amount of Revolving Advances and the Letter of Credit Exposure and the Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Term Commitments, as applicable, of such Defaulting Lender shall
not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders or the Required Incremental Term Lenders, as applicable, have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other
modification pursuant to Section 8.01); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification described in Section 8.01 for
which the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby is required; 
 (c) if any Letter of
Credit Exposure exists at the time such Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) all or any
part of the Letter of Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent that (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting
Revolving Lenders’ unpaid principal amount of Revolving Advances plus such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Commitments as in effect at
the time of such reallocation and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at such time; 
 (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Agent, cash collateralize
for the benefit of the Issuing Banks only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated obligations of such Defaulting Lender
in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03(h)(i) for so long as such Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding; provided that neither any such reallocation (partial or otherwise) described in clause
(i) above or this clause (ii), nor any payment by a non-Defaulting Revolving Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Banks or any other Lender may have against
such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a non-Defaulting Revolving Lender; 
 (iii) if the
Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not 

  
 53 

 
be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure during the period such
Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if the Letter of Credit
Exposures of the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.04(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such
non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares; and 
 (v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting
Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Banks or any other Lender
hereunder, all facility fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender under Section 2.04(a) (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment that was utilized by such
Letter of Credit Exposure) and Letter of Credit participation fees payable under Section 2.04(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks, ratably based on the
portion of such Letter of Credit Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank, until and to the extent that such Letter of Credit Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or
(ii) above; and 
 (d) so long as such Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to
issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Letter of Credit Exposure will be 100% covered by the Letter of Credit Commitments of the
non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.19(c)(ii), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among
non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.19(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 
 If a Bankruptcy Event with respect to any Lender Parent of a Revolving Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue, no Issuing Bank shall be required to
issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Bank shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Revolving Lender, reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender
hereunder. 
 In the event that the Agent, the Borrower and each Issuing Bank each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately
remedied all matters that caused any such Revolving Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Letter of Credit Exposures of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Lender’s Letter of Credit
Commitment and on such date such Revolving Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Advances of the other Revolving Lenders as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Lender to hold such Revolving Advances in
accordance with its Pro Rata Share, whereupon such Revolving Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower
while such Revolving Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further that no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Revolving Lender will constitute a 

  
 54 

 
waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Banks or any other Revolving Lender may have arising from such Revolving Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

 SECTION 2.20. Incremental Term Loans. 
 (a) The Borrower shall have the right from time to time during the term of this Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.20, to request in writing
incremental term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) be made under this Agreement by Incremental Term Lenders pursuant to one or more Incremental Term Loan Agreements, which Incremental Term Loans may or may not by their terms, at
the election of the Borrower, automatically increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments of the Incremental Term Lenders upon any prepayment thereof in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or capital expenditure as provided in
Sections 2.05(f) and 5.14(d); provided that no such Incremental Term Loan may by its terms provide for an automatic increase in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments if the sum of (x) the aggregate principal
amount of such Incremental Term Loans, plus (y) the aggregate principal amounts of any other Incremental Term Loans made under this Agreement that by their terms automatically increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments
upon any prepayment thereof in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or capital expenditure as provided in Sections 2.05(f) and 5.14(d), plus (z) the aggregate amount of Commitment Increases then in effect, shall exceed
$350,000,000. Such notice to the Agent shall set forth the date on which such Incremental Term Loans are requested to be made (which shall not be less than three (3) Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice (which time
periods may be modified or waived at the discretion of the Agent)) and include the applicable completed Incremental Term Loan Agreement for such Incremental Term Loans as an attachment thereto. Each request by the Borrower for an Incremental Term
Loan that automatically increases the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments upon any prepayment thereof in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or capital expenditure as provided in Sections 2.05(f) and 5.14(d), is subject
to the consent of the Agent and each Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) as to the identity of each Incremental Term Lender, but no consent of any Lender (other than any Lender providing an Incremental
Term Loan pursuant to such request) is required to be obtained in connection with any such request. 
 (b) Any such Incremental
Term Loans shall be made, at the option of the Borrower, by (x) one or more existing Lenders and/or (y) one or more financial institutions that is not an existing Lender (any such Lender or financial institution referred to in this
Section 2.20(b) being called an “Incremental Term Lender”); provided that any such Lender or financial institution (A) may not be an Ineligible Assignee, (B) must have an Incremental Term Loan of at
least $5,000,000 unless otherwise agreed to by the Agent and the Borrower and (C) must become an Incremental Term Lender under this Agreement by execution and delivery of an Incremental Term Loan Agreement; provided, further, that
no Lender shall be required to become an Incremental Term Lender and any Lender or financial institution approached to provide an Incremental Term Loan may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Term Loan. 

  
 55 

 (c) The Borrower and each Incremental Term Lender that has agreed to provide an Incremental
Term Loan pursuant to such request shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Incremental Term Loan Agreement and such other documentation as the Agent shall reasonably specify to provide for the requested Incremental Term Loans. 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Loan Agreement shall become effective and no Incremental Term Loans shall be
provided under this Section 2.20 unless: 
 (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist at the
time of the request or at the time of the making of the proposed Incremental Term Loans; 
 (ii) all conditions
precedent for a Borrowing set forth in Section 3.02(a) have been satisfied; 
 (iii) the Borrower
shall have provided Cash Collateral as required pursuant to Section 5.14 hereof and the Agent shall have received copies of the Collateral Documents or any amendments thereto that the Agent shall deem reasonably necessary, signed, to the
extent applicable, by each of the parties thereto (or, in the case of any party as to which an executed counterpart shall not have been received, receipt by the Agent of telegraphic, telecopy, electronic communication or other written confirmation
from such party of execution of a counterpart thereof by such party), in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent; 
 (iv) the Agent shall have received customary legal opinions, resolutions and closing certificates and other documentation as it shall reasonably request, in each case in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Agent; and 
 (v) to the extent requested by any Incremental Term Lender making an
Incremental Term Loan, the Borrower shall have executed and delivered promissory notes in favor of such Incremental Term Lenders evidencing such Incremental Term Loans, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Incremental Term Lenders
and the Agent. 
 ARTICLE III

other than any Lien that is required by this Agreement. 
 (c) Binding Effect. This Agreement constitutes a valid and
binding agreement of the Borrower and each Note, if and when executed and delivered in accordance with this Agreement, will constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, in each case enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as

Litigation. Except as disclosed in the Borrower’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, and the Borrower’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2011 and

 59 

 
knowledge of the Borrower threatened against or affecting, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries before any court or arbitrator or any governmental body, agency or official that
would be likely to be decided adversely to the Borrower or such Subsidiary and, as a result, have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(g) Compliance with Laws. The Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary is in compliance in all material respects with all
applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations and requirements of governmental authorities (including, without limitation, ERISA and Environmental Laws) except where (i) non-compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) the
necessity of compliance therewith is contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

reserves on the books of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of taxes or other governmental charges are, in the opinions of the Borrower, adequate. 
 (i) Investment Company Status. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of

hereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), when taken as a whole and when so furnished, contains any material misstatement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Borrower represent only that such information was prepared in good faith
based upon assumptions believed by the Borrower to be reasonable at the time prepared.

of buying or carrying any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 
 SECTION 5.11. Transactions with Affiliates. The Borrower will not, and the Borrower will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, pay any funds to or for the account of,

 SECTION 5.12. Consolidated Leverage Ratio. 
 (a) The Consolidated Leverage Ratio,
as at the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower (beginning with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2011), shall be less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.0; provided that subsequent to the consummation of a Qualified Acquisition, the

 66 

 (i) with respect to all Permitted Acquisitions subsequent to the Effective Date,
Consolidated EBITDA with respect to such newly acquired assets shall be calculated on a pro forma basis as if such acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the applicable twelve month period of determination; provided, that with respect
to all Permitted Acquisitions with limited or no prior operating history (or with a prior operating history that does not reliably indicate future operating results), Consolidated EBITDA shall be deemed to be the amount approved by the Agent as the
projected Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries attributable to such Permitted Acquisition for the first twelve-month period following such Permitted Acquisition (such amount to be determined based on customer contracts relating
to such Permitted Acquisition, the creditworthiness of the other parties to such contracts, and projected revenues from such contracts, capital costs and expenses, oil and gas reserve and production estimates, commodity price assumptions and other
reasonable factors deemed appropriate by Agent); and 
 (ii) Consolidated EBITDA may include, at the Borrower’s option, any
Qualified Project EBITDA Adjustments as provided in the definition thereof. 
 SECTION 5.13. Designation of Subsidiaries.
The Board of Directors or similar governing body of the Ultimate General Partner (in its capacity as general partner of the General Partner, in its capacity as general partner of the Borrower) may at any time designate any Restricted Subsidiary as
an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (i) immediately before and after such designation, no Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
(ii) immediately after giving effect to such designation, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be in compliance, on a pro forma basis, with Section 5.12(a) (as though the effective date of such designation were the
last day of a fiscal quarter of the Borrower) and, as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of such designation, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer or Controller of the Ultimate
General Partner (in its capacity as general partner of the General Partner, in its capacity as general partner of the Borrower) setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations demonstrating such compliance), (iii) no Restricted Subsidiary
may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it was previously designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (iv) no Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary may be designated as a Restricted Subsidiary, (v) no Subsidiary that owns any
Equity Securities or Indebtedness of, or owns or holds any Lien on, any property of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated), may be designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary,
(vi) each Subsidiary to be so designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, and its Subsidiaries, has not at the time of designation, and does not thereafter, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable
with respect to any Indebtedness pursuant to which the lender or other creditor has recourse to any assets of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary other than the Equity Securities in such Unrestricted Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries, and
(vii) no primary operating Subsidiary of the Borrower may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute the incurrence at the time of designation of any
Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary fails to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter automatically cease to be an Unrestricted
Subsidiary and shall constitute a Restricted Subsidiary for all purposes of this 

  
 67 

 
Agreement, and (among other things) any Indebtedness and Liens of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower as of such date. 

SECTION 5.14. Cash Collateral. 
 (a) The Borrower shall, prior to the initial borrowing of any Incremental Term Loans, establish one or more Cash Collateral Accounts and enter into one or more Account Control Agreements and shall
thereafter maintain such Cash Collateral Accounts and keep the Account Control Agreements in full force and effect at all times that any portion of the Incremental Term Loans shall remain outstanding. 

(b) The Borrower shall, at all times, maintain Cash Collateral in the Cash Collateral Accounts with a value greater than or equal to the
following (the “Required Collateral Amount”): the greater of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Incremental Term Loans made under this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.20 and (ii) such other
amount agreed to by the Incremental Term Lenders and the Borrower in any Incremental Term Loan Agreement. 
 (c) If, at any time,
the Required Collateral Amount for any Series of Incremental Term Loans exceeds the value of the Cash Collateral for such Series of Incremental Term Loans, the Borrower shall immediately deposit additional Cash Collateral into the appropriate Cash
Collateral Account to eliminate such excess. In accordance with the terms of the applicable Account Control Agreements, the Borrower shall direct the investment of items deposited into the applicable Cash Collateral Account. The Borrower shall treat
all income, gains or losses from the investment of items in the Cash Collateral Accounts as its own income or loss, and the Agent and the Lenders shall have no liability for any such gain or loss. 

(d) The Borrower shall be permitted to liquidate and/or withdraw Cash Collateral from any Cash Collateral Account to fund a Permitted
Acquisition or capital expenditure; provided, that concurrently with such liquidation or withdrawal (i) if the terms of the Incremental Term Loans secured by such Cash Collateral provide that the aggregate amount of the Revolving
Commitments shall automatically increase pursuant to Section 2.05(f) upon any prepayment of such Incremental Term Loans in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or capital expenditure, then the Revolving Commitments of the applicable
Incremental Term Lenders shall be automatically increased (without the consent of the Lenders), (ii) in connection with any automatic increase in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to clause (i) above, a Revolving Advance shall be
made by the Revolving Lenders (including by the applicable Incremental Term Lenders) to the Borrower, (iii) the proceeds of such Revolving Advance made pursuant to clause (ii) above, or other cash, shall be applied by the Borrower
to prepay the principal amount of the applicable Incremental Term Loans in an amount equal to the amount of Cash Collateral liquidated or withdrawn, and (iv) after such liquidation or withdrawal, the value of the Cash Collateral shall be
greater than or equal to the Required Collateral Amount, as calculated after giving effect of such prepayment of the Incremental Term Loans. In the event that the Borrower shall elect to make such a withdrawal, the Agent shall direct the applicable
Intermediary to liquidate the applicable Cash Collateral and remit the proceeds to the Borrower. 
 (e) If, at the end of any
fiscal quarter of the Borrower, the value of the Cash Collateral exceeds the Required Collateral Amount, then, upon the request of the Borrower, 

  
 68 

 
provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Agent shall direct the applicable Intermediary to pay and transfer to the Borrower cash, to the extent
available, from the appropriate Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to such excess. 
 (f) To secure the prompt payment
in full when due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, of the Incremental Term Loans made under this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.20, the Borrower hereby grants to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Incremental
Term Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans, a continuing security interest in, and a right to set off against, any and all right, title and interest of the Borrower in and to the Cash Collateral Accounts and the Cash Collateral and all other
amounts maintained in the Cash Collateral Accounts.

Lender or (iii) the Borrower shall fail to perform or observe any other term, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on its part to be performed or observed if such failure shall remain unremedied for 30 days after written notice

 (d) (i) the Borrower or any of

debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for any substantial part of its property and, in the case of any such proceeding instituted against it (but
not instituted by it), either such proceeding shall remain undismissed or unstayed for a period of 90 days, or any of the actions sought in such proceeding (including, without limitation, the entry of an order for relief against, or the appointment
of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for, it or for any substantial part of its property) shall occur; or the Borrower or any of its Material Restricted Subsidiaries shall take any corporate action to authorize any of the

 ARTICLE VII 
 THE AGENT 
 SECTION 7.01. Authorization and Action. Each Lender
hereby appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are
reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but
shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders or the Required Incremental Term Lenders, as the
case may be, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Agent to personal liability or that is contrary
to this Agreement or applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, (b) the Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by this Agreement that the Agent is required to exercise in
writing as directed by the Required Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders or the Required Incremental Term Lenders, as the case may be, (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in
Section 8.01), and (c) except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by it or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Agent by the
Borrower or a Lender. The Agent agrees to promptly make available to each Lender all information delivered to the Agent pursuant to Section 5.01, and the Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by the
Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 7.02. Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither the Agent nor any
of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without
limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Agent receives and accepts an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by the Lender that is the payee of such Note, as
assignor, and an assignee, as provided in Section 8.07; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements,
warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance, observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Borrower or the existence at any time of any Default or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower; (e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for

  
 73 

 
the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and (f) shall incur
no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier, telegram or electronic communication) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by
the proper party or parties. 
 SECTION 7.03. Citi and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment, the Advances made by
it, the Note issued to it and any Letter of Credit issued by it, Citi shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the terms “Lender”,
“Lenders”, “Revolving Lender,” “Revolving Lenders”, “Incremental Term Lender”, “Incremental Term Lenders” “Issuing Bank” and “Issuing Banks” shall, unless otherwise expressly
indicated, include Citi in its individual capacity, as applicable. Citi and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of
business with, the Borrower, any of its Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own Equity Securities of the Borrower or any such Affiliate, all as if Citi were not the Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. The
Agent shall have no duty to disclose any information obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates to the extent such information was obtained or received in any capacity other than as Agent.

 SECTION 7.04. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon
the Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter
into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 7.05. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to
indemnify the Agent and the Revolving Lenders agree to indemnify each Issuing Bank (in each case to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to the respective principal amounts of the applicable Notes then held by each of them
(or if no Notes are at the time outstanding or if any Notes are held by Persons that are not Lenders, ratably according to the respective amounts of their applicable Commitments or Advances), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent or such Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of
this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Agent or such Issuing Bank under this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”), provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of the Indemnified Costs
resulting from the Agent’s or such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent and each Revolving Lender agrees to reimburse each Issuing Bank
promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Agent or such Issuing Bank in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or
enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or 

  
 74 

 
otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Agent or such Issuing Bank is not reimbursed for such expenses by the
Borrower. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 7.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Agent, any Issuing Bank, any
Lender or a third party. 
 SECTION 7.06. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice
thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, (i) the Borrower, with the consent of the Required Lenders (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent or (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no
successor Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lenders’ removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring
Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and
surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the
retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement provided that if such successor Agent shall have been appointed without the consent of the Borrower, such successor Agent may be
replaced by the Borrower with the consent of the Required Lenders so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article VII
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. 

SECTION 7.07. Syndication Agents, Documentation Agents and Joint Lead Arrangers. The Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents
and the Joint Lead Arrangers, in their respective capacities as such, shall not have any duties or obligations of any kind under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 7.08. Sub-Agents. The Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. The Agent and any such sub-agent
may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through its respective Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs and the provisions of Section 8.04 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to
the Affiliates of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

right hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and of such other counsel retained by the Agent and the Lenders in connection with enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement, the

of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) the Notes, this Agreement, any of the transactions
contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances, regardless of whether any Indemnified Party is a party thereto, and to reimburse each Indemnified Party upon demand for any reasonable and documented legal expenses
of one firm of counsel for all such Indemnified Parties, taken as a whole and, if necessary, of a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all such
Indemnified Parties, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnified Party affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of another
firm of counsel for such affected Indemnified Party) and other expenses 

  
 78 

 
incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing, provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnified Party, apply to losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or related legal or other expenses to the extent (i) they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party,
(ii) they arise out of or in connection with any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding that does not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates and that is brought by an Indemnified Party against any other
Indemnified Party or (iii) they consist of any taxes, which shall be governed by Sections 2.12 and 2.15. The parties hereto agree not to assert, and hereby waive on behalf of their respective Affiliates, the holders of their
Equity Securities and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, any claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against any party hereto (including, without limitation, the Borrower, the Agent, any
Lender or any Issuing Bank), any of their respective Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability arising out of or otherwise relating to the Notes, this Agreement, any Letter
of Credit, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnity and reimbursement obligations to
the extent set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. 
 (c) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of
the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in Sections 2.11, 2.12, 2.14, 2.15 and 8.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable
hereunder and under the Notes.

continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of
Section 6.01, each Lender 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 to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note held by such Lender,
whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect
the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 8.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender may have. 

SECTION 8.06. Binding Effect . This Agreement shall become effective (other than Sections 2.01 and 2.03, which shall
only become effective upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.01) when it shall have been executed by the Agent and when the Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights
hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written 

  
 79 

 
consent of the Lenders (and any attempted assignment by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). 
 SECTION 8.07. Assignments and Participations.

conditions set forth in paragraph (a)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible Assignee) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a
portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of: 

(A) the Borrower; provided that, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment unless it shall
have objected thereto by written notice to the Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided further that no consent of the Borrower shall be required (1) for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
Lender or an Approved Fund or (2) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; 
 (B) the Agent; provided that no consent of the Agent shall be required for an assignment of (x) any Revolving Commitment and Revolving Advances to an assignee that is a Revolving Lender
immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment and (y) all or any portion of an Incremental Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and 

(C) each Issuing Bank. 
 As used herein, “Ineligible Assignee” means (a) a natural person, (b) a company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural
person or relative(s) thereof; provided that, such company, investment vehicle or trust shall not constitute an Ineligible Assignee if it (x) has not been established for the primary purpose of acquiring any Advances or Commitments,
(y) is managed by a professional advisor, who is not such natural person or a relative thereof, having significant experience in the business of making or purchasing commercial loans, and (z) has assets greater than $25,000,000 and a
significant part of its activities consist of making or purchasing commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business (c) the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (d) a Defaulting
Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (d). 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Advances of
any Type and Class, the amount of the Commitment or Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent) shall not be
less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof unless each of the Borrower and the Agent 

  
 80 

 
otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part, and a constant and not varying
percentage, of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 
 (C) the parties
to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and 

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the
assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates or their respective securities) will be made available and who may
receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance of any Assignment and Acceptance and recording thereof in the Register by the Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) 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 or the remaining
portion of an 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 2.11, 2.12, 2.14, 2.15 and
8.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 8.07 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. 
 (b) By executing and delivering an
Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning
Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness,
sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the
Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement,
together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis 

  
 81 

 
and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as
agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees
that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 
 (c) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and
Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof
to the Borrower; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(d), 2.03(d) or (e) or 2.14(d), the
Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No
assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and
deliver to the Agent in exchange for any surrendered Note a new Note to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment or Advance, as applicable, assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Lender
has retained a Commitment or Advance, as applicable, hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment or Advance retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit A-2, as
applicable, hereto. 
 (d) The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address
referred to in Section 8.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Advances
owing to, each Lender (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded
in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Commitment, Advance
or Note shall be transferred by any Lender unless such transfer is entered in the Register. 
 (e) Each Lender may, with the
consent (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible
Assignee, in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, 

  
 82 

 
without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations
under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations,
(iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (v) no Participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any consent to any
departure by the Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such
participation, or, except as provided in Section 2.05(e), postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such
participation. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 2.15(g),
(h) and (i) (it being understood that the documentation required under Sections 2.15(g), (h) and (i) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender
and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.16 and 2.18 as if it were an
assignees under paragraph (a) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12, 2.15 or 8.04, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender
would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each
Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each
Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under this Agreement or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall
have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Advances, Letters of Credit or its other
obligations hereunder or under any Note or any other documents to be delivered under this Agreement) to any Person other than the Borrower except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Advance, Letter of
Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person
whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as the Agent) shall have no
responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment, designation or
participation or proposed assignment, designation or participation pursuant to this Section 8.07, disclose to the assignee, designee or participant or proposed assignee, designee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower
and its Affiliates furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee, designee or 

  
 83 

 
participant or proposed assignee, designee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Borrower and its Affiliates received by it
from such Lender. 
 (g) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a
security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it), including in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 
 SECTION 8.08. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction . This
Agreement and each Note (if any) shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York State court sitting in New York County, Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any such federal or state court, for purposes of all suits, actions or legal
proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that each of the parties hereto agrees that (i) a final judgment in any such suit, 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 and (ii) the Agent, each of the Issuing Banks and each of the Lenders retain the right to bring actions or proceedings against the Borrower in
the courts of any other jurisdiction in connection with the exercise of any rights under any agreement related to collateral provided hereunder that is governed by laws other than the law of the State of New York or with respect to any collateral
subject thereto. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that 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. 
 SECTION 8.09. Execution in
Counterparts; Integration . This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. This
Agreement, the Notes, the Agent Fee Letter and the other Fee Letters together constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all prior agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. 
 SECTION 8.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . EACH OF
THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE NOTES OR THE
ACTIONS OF THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF. 

  
 84 

 SECTION 8.11. Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to
the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify
the Borrower in accordance with the Act. 
 SECTION 8.12. Headings . Article, Section and other headings and the Table of
Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 8.13. Confidentiality. 
 (a) The Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its
Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information
and instructed to keep such Information confidential and informed on a need-to-know basis), (ii) to the extent requested by any governmental authority or self-regulatory body, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations,
(iv) to the extent required by any subpoena or similar legal process provided that, in such case and in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, the Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender as applicable
shall use reasonable efforts, consistent with its normal practices, to notify the Borrower promptly thereof prior to disclosure of such Information, to the extent it is not prohibited from doing so by any law or regulation or by such subpoena or
legal process, (v) to any other party to this Agreement, (vi) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (vii) subject
to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 8.13, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement (it being understood that such actual or prospective assignee or Participant will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential and informed on a need-to-know basis) or
(B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations (it being understood that such actual or prospective counterparty will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential and informed on a need-to-know basis), (viii) with the consent of the Borrower or (ix) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly
available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.13 or (B) becomes available to the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower unless the Agent or such
Lender, as applicable, shall have actual knowledge that such source was required to keep such Information confidential. For the purposes of this Section 8.13, “Information” means all information received from the
Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, in the case of
information received from the Borrower after the Effective Date, such information is either clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential or should, because of its nature, reasonably be understood to be confidential. Any Person required
to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 8.13 shall be 

  
 85 

 
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. 
 (b) Each Lender acknowledges that Information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement
may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will
handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 
 (c) All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Borrower or the Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level
information, which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Agents that it has identified in its Administrative
Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 

SECTION 8.14. Conversion of Currencies. 
 (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it
may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately
preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 
 (b) The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any
party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is
stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable
Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the
Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrower contained in this
Section 8.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

$                        
                
	 	Dated:                    ,
201        

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, SPECTRA ENERGY PARTNERS, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the
“Borrower”), HEREBY PROMISES TO PAY to the order of [                    ] or its registered assignees (the
“Lender”) for the account of its Applicable Lending Office on the Termination Date (each as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below) the principal sum of $[amount of the Lender’s Revolving Commitment in
figures] or, if less, the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Advances made by the Lender to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement dated as of October 18, 2011, among the Borrower, the Lender and certain other lenders
parties thereto, and Citibank, N.A., as Agent for the Lender and such other lenders (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”; the terms defined therein
being used herein as therein defined), outstanding on the Termination Date. 
 The Borrower promises to pay interest on the
unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Advance from the date of such Revolving Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates, and payable at such times, as are specified in the Credit Agreement. 

Both principal and interest are payable in lawful money of the United States of America to Citibank, N.A., as Agent, at the Agent’s

This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida applicable to agreements made and not to be performed entirely within such state, without regard to conflicts of laws principles.  The Parties agree irrevocably to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts or, if no federal jurisdiction exists, the state courts, located in Miami, Florida, for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding brought by any Party arising out of any breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such suit, action, or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper, or that the provisions of this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts.  SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAW, THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTE ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT.

 

9.5           Assignability.

9.8             Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement, or any part thereof, is held by a court of competent jurisdiction of any foreign, federal, state, county or local government or any other governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against public policy for any reason, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected or impaired or invalidated. The Executive acknowledges that the restrictive covenants contained in Section 7 are reasonable and valid in temporal scope and in all other respects.

 

9.9             Judicial Modification. If any court determines that any of the covenants in Section 7, or any part of any of them, is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of such covenants and parts thereof shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portion. If any court determines that any of such covenants, or any part thereof, is invalid or unenforceable because of the geographic or temporal scope of such provision, such court shall reduce such scope to the minimum extent necessary to make such covenants valid and enforceable.

 

9.10             Compliance with Law. This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the parties hereto agree to treat payments and entitlements hereunder consistent with that intent.
