 2.1. Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby jointly and severally irrevocably guarantees to each Holder and the Agent, as primary obligors and not merely as sureties (i) the prompt payment in full, in
United States dollars, when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory or optional prepayment or otherwise, including amounts that would become due but for the operation of Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C.
§362(a)) of the principal at the Applicable Price of the Notes and interest on the Notes (including, without limitation, interest on any overdue principal, and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on any overdue interest) and all other

Company of all covenants, agreements and conditions on its part to be performed and observed under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such payments and other obligations

the Guaranteed Obligations, such Subsidiary Guarantor will (x) promptly pay or perform the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations,
the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory or optional prepayment or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal and (y) pay to each Holder such amounts,
to the extent lawful, as shall be sufficient to pay the costs and expenses of collection or of otherwise enforcing any of such Holder’s rights under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, reasonable
counsel fees. This Agreement is irrevocable and unconditional in nature and is made with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations now existing or in the future arising. The Subsidiary Guarantors’ liability under this Agreement shall continue until

 (a) Without affecting the enforceability or effectiveness of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and without affecting, limiting, reducing,
discharging or terminating the liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor, or the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Lender Parties under this Agreement, the Lender Parties may, at any time and from time to time and without notice or demand
of any kind or nature whatsoever:

provision of the foregoing;

other instruments in addition to, in exchange for or relative to any Loan Document, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral now or in the future serving as security for the Guaranteed Obligations;

result of the exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege or otherwise); 
 (v) accept, receive and hold any additional collateral for
all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (including from any other Subsidiary Guarantor);

credit for or relative to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

any right, remedy, power or privilege as to any other Person or collateral before commencing to proceed against or otherwise to enforce this Agreement as to any Subsidiary Guarantor;

 (xiii) obtain the appointment of a receiver with respect to any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and apply

of any such other Person; 
 (iii) the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any security document, guarantee, letter of credit or
other instrument for or relative to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of the priority of any Lien on any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

 (v) any failure of any Lender Party to marshal assets in favor of the Company or any other Person
(including any other Subsidiary Guarantor), to exhaust any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, to pursue or exhaust any right, remedy, power or privilege it may have against any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company, any
other guarantor, any issuer of any letter of credit or any other Person with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or to take any action whatsoever to mitigate or reduce that or any other Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability
under this Agreement, no Lender Party being under any obligation to take any such action notwithstanding the fact that all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations may be due and payable and that the Company may be in default of its obligations
under any Loan Document; 
 (vi) any failure of any Lender Party to give notice of sale or other disposition of any collateral (including
any notice of any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale of any interest in real property serving as collateral) for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person or any defect in, or

 (viii) any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or sale of, or other election of remedies with respect to, any interest in real property or other
collateral serving as security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, even though that foreclosure, sale or election of remedies may or will impair the subrogation rights of any Subsidiary Guarantor or may or will preclude any Subsidiary
Guarantor from obtaining reimbursement, contribution, indemnification or other recovery from any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company, any other guarantor, any issuer of any letter of credit or any other Person and even though the Company may or
will not, as a result of that foreclosure, sale or election of remedies, be liable for any deficiency;

		 	6	 	Subsidiary Guaranty

 
Guarantor further expressly waives the benefit of any and all statutes of limitation and any and all laws providing for the exemption of Property from
execution or for valuation and appraisal upon foreclosure, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. 
 (d) Each Subsidiary
Guarantor represents and warrants to the Lender Parties that it has established adequate means of obtaining financial and other information pertaining to the business, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of the Company and its
properties on a continuing basis and that it is now and will in the future remain fully familiar with the business, operations and condition (financial and otherwise) of the Company and its properties. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further
represents and warrants that it has reviewed and approved each of the Loan Documents and is fully familiar with the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that it will in the future remain fully familiar with that transaction and with
any new Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated by those Loan Documents. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Lender Party (should any such duty exist) to disclose to any Subsidiary
Guarantor any matter of fact or other information related to the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company or its properties or to any Loan Document or the transactions undertaken pursuant to, or contemplated by, any
such Loan Document, whether now or in the future known by any Lender Party. 
 (e) Each Subsidiary Guarantor intends that its rights and
obligations shall be those expressly set forth in this Agreement and that its obligations shall not be affected, limited, reduced, discharged or terminated by reason of any principles or provisions of law that conflict with the terms of this
Agreement. 
 2.3. Understanding With Respect to Waivers and Consents. Each Subsidiary Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the
waivers and consents set forth in this Agreement is made voluntarily and unconditionally after consultation with outside legal counsel and with full knowledge of its significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to
any defense or right waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights that any Subsidiary Guarantor otherwise may have against the Company, any Lender Party or any other Person or against any collateral. If, notwithstanding the
intent of the parties that the terms of this Agreement shall control in any and all circumstances, any such waivers or consents are determined to be unenforceable under applicable law, those waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum
extent permitted by law. 
 2.4. Subrogation. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives, until the payment and satisfaction in full of
all of the Guaranteed Obligations, any right, remedy, power or privilege, such as any right of subrogation, contribution or indemnity or related remedy, power or privilege, arising (whether by contract or operation of law, including under the
Bankruptcy Code) against the Company, any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor, any issuer of any letter of credit or any other Person or any collateral by reason of any payment or other performance pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement and, if any amount is paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of those rights, remedies, powers or privileges, it will hold that amount in trust for the benefit of, and pay the same over to, the Agent (for the benefit of the other
Lender Parties) on account of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor understands that the exercise by any Lender Party of any right, remedy, power or privilege that it 

  

					
		 	7	 	Subsidiary Guaranty

 
may have under the Loan Documents, security agreement, guarantee, letter of credit or other instrument for or relative to all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations or otherwise may affect or eliminate any Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of subrogation or similar recovery against the Company, any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor, any issuer of any letter of credit or any other
Person or against any collateral and that each Subsidiary Guarantor may therefore incur partially or totally nonreimbursable liability under this Agreement. Nevertheless, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby authorizes and empowers the Agent and the
other Lender Parties to exercise, in its or their sole discretion, any combination of those rights, remedies, powers and privileges. 
 2.5. Reinstatement. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Agreement shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Company, any other Subsidiary
Guarantor, any other guarantor, any issuer of any letter of credit or any other Person or any other application of funds (including the proceeds of any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations) in respect of all or any part of
the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of those Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy, reorganization or otherwise and the Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and
severally agree that they will indemnify each Lender Party on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by that Lender Party in connection with that rescission or restoration. 
 2.6. Remedies. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that, between each of them and the Lender Parties, the obligations of
the Company under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be declared to be forthwith (or may become automatically) due and payable as provided in Section 6.1 of the Loan Agreement for purposes of Section 2.1
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing that declaration (or those obligations becoming due and payable as against the Company) and that, in the event of that declaration (or that obligation being deemed due and
payable), those obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Company) shall forthwith become due and payable for purposes of Section 2.1. 
 2.7. Separate Action. Any Lender Party may bring and prosecute a separate action or actions against any Subsidiary Guarantor whether or not any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company, any other guarantor, any
issuer of any letter of credit or any other Person is joined in any such action or a separate action or actions are brought against any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company, any other guarantor, any issuer of any letter of credit or any other
Person or any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under, and the effectiveness of, this Agreement are not conditioned upon the existence or continuation of any other guarantee or
any letter of credit for or relative to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations. 
 2.8. Subordination of Indebtedness of the
Company; Security Interest. 
 (a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that any Indebtedness now or in the future owed to it by the Company
is hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations. If the 

  

					
		 	8	 	Subsidiary Guaranty

 
Agent so requests, any such Indebtedness shall be collected, enforced and received by any Subsidiary Guarantor as trustee for the Agent and shall be paid
over to the Agent (for the benefit of the other Lender Parties) in kind on account of the Guaranteed Obligations. If, after the Agent’s request, any Subsidiary Guarantor fails to collect or enforce any such indebtedness or to pay the proceeds
of that Indebtedness to the Agent, the Agent as that Subsidiary Guarantor’s attorney-in-fact may do such acts and sign such documents in that Subsidiary Guarantor’s name and on that Subsidiary Guarantor’s behalf as the Agent considers
necessary or desirable to effect that collection, enforcement or payment, the Agent being hereby appointed that Subsidiary Guarantor’s attorney-in-fact for that purpose. 
 (b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby grants to the Agent (for the benefit of the other Lender Parties) a security interest in any Indebtedness referred
to in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.8 and in any personal property of the Company in which that Subsidiary Guarantor now has or in the future acquires any right, title or interest. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that such
security interest shall be additional security for the Guaranteed Obligations and shall be superior to any right of that Subsidiary Guarantor in that property until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully satisfied and performed. 
 2.9. Certain Limitations. In any proceeding involving any state corporate law or any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under Section 2.1 would otherwise, without taking into account the provisions of Section 2.9, be held or determined to be
void, invalid or unenforceable or if the claims of the Lender Parities in respect of those obligations would be subordinated to the claims of any other creditors on account of the Subsidiary Guarantors’ liability under Section 2.1,
then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the amount of that liability shall, without any further action by the Subsidiary Guarantors, any Lender Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to
the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in that action or proceeding. 
 2.10. Revocation. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives all rights it may have to revoke its obligations under Section 2.1 with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations. 
 2.11. Right to Offset Balances. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that, in addition to (and without any limitation of)
any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim a Lender Party may otherwise have, each Lender Party shall be entitled, at its option, to offset balances held by it for the account of any Subsidiary Guarantor at any of its offices, in
Dollars or in any other currency, against any Obligations of the Company to that Lender Party that are not paid when due (regardless of whether those balances are then due to that Subsidiary Guarantor). Any Lender Party so entitled will promptly
notify that Subsidiary Guarantor and the Agent of any offset effected by it, provided that such Lender Party’s failure to give that notice shall not affect the validity of that offset.

representations and warranties relating to it contained in the Loan Agreement are true and correct.

agrees to comply with the covenants stated to be complied by it pursuant to the Loan Agreement.

Guarantor under this Agreement, the negotiation of any restructuring or “work out” (whether or not consummated) or the enforcement of this Section 5.3. All amounts due under this Agreement (including under
Section 2.01) not paid when due shall bear interest until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.

 5. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the law of the State of
