in conformity with, and all financial data required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with, GAAP, as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent with that used in preparing Borrower’s
financial statements described in Section 7.5. 
 (b) Notwithstanding Section 1.3(a), if at any time
any change in GAAP or in any SEC rules and regulations (or the application of such rules and regulations to Borrower) would affect the computation of any financial ratio, covenant, or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either Borrower

 ARTICLE 3: LOANS AND BORROWING BASE. 
 3.1 Term Loans. 
 (a) Subject to the
provisions in the Loan Documents, each Lender severally and not jointly agrees to lend to Borrower, in a single advance on the Closing Date, a Term Loan in the amount of such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. The Term Loans shall bear interest in
accordance with Section 3.4. Borrower may not reborrow any portion of any Term Loan. 
 (b) Unless Administrative Agent
otherwise consents, the aggregate amount of each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000, but not less than $5,000,000, the aggregate amount of each Reference Rate Borrowing shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000,
but not less than $500,000. 
 (c) The Term Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by
such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Term Loans made by the Lenders to
Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the
event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of
manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through Administrative Agent, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Term Loans in addition to such
accounts or records. 
 (d) Unless Administrative Agent otherwise consents, no more than Ten (10) Eurodollar Borrowings in the aggregate
shall be outstanding at any one time. 
 3.2 Reference Rate Borrowings. All Term Loans shall at all times constitute Reference Rate
Borrowings unless properly designated or redesignated as Eurodollar Borrowings pursuant to Sections 3.3 or 3.4. If any Term Loan on the Closing Date shall be a Reference Rate Borrowing, Borrower shall request such
Term Loan by notice to Administrative Agent, at Administrative Agent’s Lending Office, not later than 12:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date the Reference Rate Borrowing is to be funded to Borrower. 
  

 -18- 

 3.3 Eurodollar Borrowing. 
 (a) If any Term Loan on the Closing Date shall be a Eurodollar Borrowing, Borrower shall request such Term Loan by notice to Administrative Agent, at
Administrative Agent’s Lending Office, not later than 12:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business Days before the Closing Date. Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of such request. If any Eurodollar Borrowing is not
repaid on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, then Borrower may request that all or a portion of such Eurodollar Borrowing be continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing by notice to Administrative Agent, at Administrative Agent’s Lending
Office, not later than 12:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business Days before the first (1st) day of the Interest Period requested for such continued Eurodollar Borrowing; provided that the Interest Period for such continued
Eurodollar Borrowing shall end on or before the Maturity Date. If no such request for continuation is made, such Eurodollar Borrowing shall automatically be redesignated as a Reference Rate Borrowing on such date. 
 (b) At or about 12:00 p.m. two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (or the last day of the Interest Period applicable to a Eurodollar
Borrowing to be continued pursuant to clause (a) above), Administrative Agent shall determine the applicable Eurodollar Rate (which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) and shall promptly give notice
of the same to Borrower and Lenders by telephone or telecopier. 
 (c) With respect to each Term Loan on the Closing Date that will be a
Eurodollar Borrowing, upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 6, each such Eurodollar Borrowing shall become effective on the Closing Date. 
 (d) Nothing contained herein shall require Lenders to fund any Eurodollar Borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market. 
 3.4 Redesignation of Borrowings. 
 (a) If any Eurodollar Borrowing is not repaid on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, and Borrower has not requested that such Eurodollar Borrowing be continued pursuant to Section 3.3, then such Eurodollar
Borrowing shall automatically be redesignated as a Reference Rate Borrowing on such date. 
 (b) Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, at any time and from time to time from the Closing Date until one (1) month preceding the Maturity Date, Borrower may request that all or a portion of outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings be redesignated as a
Eurodollar Borrowing; provided that the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Borrowing shall end on or before the Maturity Date. 
 (c)
Each redesignation of all or a portion of outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings as a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be made pursuant to a written Request for Redesignation of Borrowing. Not later than 12:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business
Days prior to the first (1st) day of the applicable Interest Period, Administrative Agent shall have received,
at Administrative Agent’s Lending Office, a properly completed Request for Redesignation of Borrowing specifying (i) the requested date of redesignation, (ii) the requested amount of Reference Rate Borrowings to be redesignated as a
Eurodollar Borrowing, and (iii) the requested Interest Period. Administrative Agent may, in its sole 

  

 -19- 

 
and absolute discretion, permit a Request for Redesignation of Borrowing to be made by telecopier or by telephone (with confirmation sent promptly by
telecopier) by Borrower. 
 (d) Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of a Request for Redesignation by 2:00 p.m. on
the date of timely receipt of a Request for Redesignation from Borrower. All redesignations shall be made ratably according to the respective Principal Debt of the Term Loans with respect to which the Request for Redesignation was given is then held
by each Lender. 
 (e) Unless Administrative Agent otherwise consents, the amount of Reference Rate Borrowings to be redesignated as a
Eurodollar Borrowing shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000, but not less than $5,000,000. 
 (f) With respect to any redesignation of
Reference Rate Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing, at or about 12:00 p.m. two (2) Business Days prior to the first (1st) day of the applicable Interest Period, Administrative Agent shall determine the applicable Eurodollar Rate (which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) and shall promptly give notice of the same
to Borrower and Lenders by telephone or telecopier. 
 (g) Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in this Agreement, the
redesignation of all or a portion of outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings as a Eurodollar Borrowing shall become effective on the first (1st) day of the applicable Interest Period. 
 (h) A Request for Redesignation of Borrowing shall be irrevocable
upon receipt by Administrative Agent. 
 (i) Nothing contained herein shall require Lenders to fund any Eurodollar Borrowing resulting from
redesignation of all or a portion of any of the Reference Rate Borrowings in the London interbank eurodollar market. 
 (j) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, unless all of Lenders otherwise agree, during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default (i) Borrower may not elect to have any portion of a Term Loan converted into a Eurodollar Borrowing and
(ii) each Eurodollar Borrowing shall, on the last day of its respective Interest Period, be redesignated as a Reference Rate Borrowing. 
 3.5 Calculation of Borrowing Base. The following provisions in this Section 3.5 shall apply at all times in which an Investment Grade Rating does not exist. 
 (a) Borrowing Base Certificate; Approval. The Borrowing Base shall be calculated at the times and in the manner set forth in this
Section 3.5(a): 
 (i) Within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter, and at such
other times as the Aggregate Majority Lenders may reasonably require (provided that such calculation is to be made as of the last day of a calendar month), Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with a Borrowing Base Certificate (and
Administrative Agent will promptly forward to each Lender) showing Borrower’s calculations of the components of the Borrowing Base and such data supporting such calculations as the Aggregate Majority Lenders may require. The Aggregate Majority
Lenders shall have a period of thirty (30) days 

  

 -20- 

 
following receipt of a Borrowing Base Certificate to notify Administrative Agent (who shall notify Borrower) of the Aggregate Majority Lenders’ approval
or disapproval thereof. Failure of the Aggregate Majority Lenders to so notify Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent to so notify Borrower within such thirty (30) day period shall be deemed approval and such Borrowing Base as set forth
in such Borrowing Base Certificate shall be effective as of the date approved (or deemed approved) by the Aggregate Majority Lenders. The amount so approved (or deemed approved) shall constitute the Borrowing Base until such time as the Borrowing
Base is redetermined in accordance with this Section 3.5(a). 
 (ii) In the event that Administrative Agent
(as requested by the Aggregate Majority Lenders) timely notifies Borrower of disapproval of a Borrowing Base Certificate, then Administrative Agent shall, at the same time, notify Borrower in writing of the amount of the Borrowing Base as reasonably
determined by the Aggregate Majority Lenders and the basis of such determination, and the effective date thereof (which shall be the date of the giving of such notice by Administrative Agent), and such amount shall thereupon and thereafter
constitute the Borrowing Base which shall remain in effect until such time as the Borrowing Base is redetermined in accordance with this Section 3.5(a). The Aggregate Majority Lenders and Borrower shall each cooperate in good
faith with the other in the calculation of the Borrowing Base in circumstances where the Aggregate Majority Lenders disapprove a Borrowing Base Certificate prepared by Borrower. 
 (iii) Each determination of the Borrowing Base in accordance with this Section 3.5(a) shall be binding and conclusive
upon the parties hereto, and provided that the Aggregate Majority Lenders are not bound to rely on information and figures provided by Borrower if the Aggregate Majority Lenders determine in good faith that it would be inappropriate to do so.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to restrict Borrower from submitting additional Borrowing Base Certificates to Administrative Agent for the Aggregate Majority Lenders’ approval at times other than those required hereunder. 

(b) Amount of Borrowing Base. As used herein in the Agreement, the term “Borrowing Base” shall have the meaning set
forth in this Section 3.5(b): 
 (i) Except as set forth in Sections 3.5(b)(ii), (iii),
and (iv), the Borrowing Base shall consist of the Dollar amount equal to the sum of the following Unencumbered Real Estate Inventory owned by Borrower or any Eligible Subsidiary that is a Guarantor: 
 (A) Entitled Land. Fifty percent (50%) of the GAAP Value of all Entitled Land (subject to the twenty percent
(20%) limitation specified in Section 3.5(b)(iii)); plus 
 (B) Lots Under Development.
Sixty-five percent (65%) of the GAAP Value of all Lots Under Development; plus 
 (C) Units Under Construction
and Completed Units. Ninety percent (90%) of the GAAP Value of all Units Under Construction and Completed Units (subject to adjustment for Completed Units as set forth in Section 3.5(b)(ii)); plus 
  

 -21- 

 (D) Escrow Proceeds Receivable. One hundred percent (100%) of the amount of
Escrow Proceeds Receivable. 
 (ii) Advance rates for Completed Units shall decrease as follows with the passage of time
following the dates such Units become Completed Units: (A) 180 days following the date such Units become Completed Units (other than with respect to Model Units, as to which clause (C) shall apply) the applicable advance rate
shall decrease from ninety percent (90%) (as specified in Section 3.5(b)(i)(C) above) to fifty percent (50%); (B) 360 days following the date that such Units become Completed Units (other than with respect to Model
Units, as to which clause (C) shall apply) the applicable advance rate shall decrease from fifty percent (50%) to zero percent (0%) (i.e., no value shall be attributed to the Borrowing Base); and (C) with respect to
Model Units, 180 days following the sale of the last production Unit in the applicable project relating to such Model Unit, the applicable advance rate for such Model Units shall decrease from ninety percent (90%) (as specified in
Section 3.5(b)(i)(C) above) to zero percent (0%) (i.e., no value shall be attributed to the Borrowing Base). 
 (iii) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that more than twenty percent (20%) of the Borrowing Base is attributable to Entitled Land, then any Entitled Land in excess of such twenty percent
(20%) limitation shall have a zero percent (0%) advance rate (i.e., shall add no value to the Borrowing Base). 
 (iv)
Only Real Estate Inventory which is Unencumbered Real Estate Inventory may be added to the Borrowing Base. Any Real Estate Inventory that is not Unencumbered Real Estate Inventory shall have no value for purposes of the Borrowing Base (i.e., a zero
percent (0%) advance rate). Furthermore, Unentitled Land shall have no value for purposes of the Borrowing Base (i.e., a zero percent (0%) advance rate). Once Units or any other Real Estate Inventory are sold and conveyed to a buyer, or otherwise
cease to be owned by Borrower (or any Eligible Subsidiary that is a Guarantor), the applicable advance rate shall decrease to zero percent (0%), and Borrower shall not be entitled to have any value for such assets attributed to the Borrowing Base.
Any Unencumbered Real Estate Inventory that is subject to a Profit and Participation Agreement shall have no value for purposes of the Borrowing Base (i.e., a zero percent (0%) advance rate) if (A) such Profit and Participation Agreement is not
on market terms, as determined in the reasonable discretion of Administrative Agent, or (B) any dispute exists between the parties thereto with respect to the terms of such Profit and Participation Agreement that is in arbitration or
litigation. 
 3.6 Borrowing Base. The sum of the Principal Debt of the Term Loans plus all other Senior Unsecured Home Building Debt
shall not, at any time in which an Investment Grade Rating does not exist, exceed the Borrowing Base. 
 3.7 Payments by Lenders to
Administrative Agent. 
 (a) Unless Administrative Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Closing Date that such Lender
will not make available as and when required hereunder to Administrative Agent for the account of Borrower the amount of that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loans, Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender has made such amount
available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds on the Closing Date and Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on 

  

 -22- 

 
such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to Administrative Agent in immediately
available funds as and when required hereunder, that Lender shall on the Business Day following the Closing Date make such amount available to Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period. A
notice from Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, then such payment to Administrative
Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Term Loan on the Closing Date for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to Administrative Agent on the Business Day following Closing Date, then Administrative Agent will
notify Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall pay such amount to Administrative Agent for Administrative Agent’s account, together with accrued interest thereon for each day elapsed since the
Closing Date, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Term Loans. 
 (b) The obligations of the Lenders
hereunder to make Term Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.7 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Term Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to make a Term
Loan, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Term Loan to be made by such other Lender. 
 3.8
Sharing of Payments, Etc. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Obligations made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or
otherwise) in excess of its Pro Rata Share, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Obligations made by them as shall be necessary to
cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent
be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such
paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Borrower
agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 11.7) with respect to
such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations
purchased under this Section 3.8 and will in each case notify Lenders following any such purchases or repayments.

 ARTICLE 4: PAYMENTS AND FEES. 
 4.1 Principal and Interest. 
 (a)
Interest shall be payable on the outstanding daily unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan from the date thereof until payment in full is made and shall accrue and be payable at the rates set forth herein both before and after default and before
and after maturity and judgment, with interest on overdue interest to bear interest at the rate specified in Section 4.3. Upon any partial prepayment or redesignation of outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings, interest accrued
through the date of such prepayment or redesignation shall be payable on the next following Interest Payment Date and shall be deducted from the Account on such date. Insufficient funds in the Account shall not excuse Borrower’s obligation to
pay accrued interest on the Interest Payment Date. Upon any partial prepayment or payment in full or redesignation or conversion of any Eurodollar Borrowing, or upon any payment or redesignation in full of all outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings,
interest accrued through the date of such prepayment, payment, redesignation, or conversion shall be payable on the next following Interest Payment Date. 
 (b) Interest on each Reference Rate Borrowing shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed, at the Reference Rate times the total Principal Debt bearing interest at
the Reference Rate under each Note. Interest accrued on each Reference Rate Borrowing shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and shall be deducted from the Account on each
such Interest Payment Date. Insufficient funds in the Account shall not excuse Borrower’s obligation to pay accrued interest on the Interest Payment Date. Administrative Agent shall use its best efforts to notify Borrower of the amount of
interest so payable prior to each Interest Payment Date, but failure of Administrative Agent to do so shall not excuse payment of such interest when payable. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.3, the unpaid principal
amount of any Reference Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Reference Rate plus the Applicable Margin, if any, applicable to Reference Rate Borrowings. Each change in the interest rate shall take
effect simultaneously with the corresponding change in the Reference Rate. Each change in the Reference Rate shall be effective as of 12:01 a.m. on the Business Day on which the change in the Reference Rate is announced, unless otherwise
specified in such announcement, in which case the change shall be effective as so specified. 
 (c) Interest on each Eurodollar Borrowing
shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest accrued on each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date, and shall be deducted from the Account on each such date.
Insufficient funds in the Account shall not excuse Borrower’s obligation to pay accrued interest on the Interest Payment Date. Administrative Agent shall use its best efforts to notify Borrower of the amount of interest so payable prior to each
such date, but failure of Administrative Agent to do so shall not excuse payment of such interest when payable. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.3, the unpaid principal amount of any Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for that Eurodollar Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Eurodollar Borrowings. 
  

 -24- 

 (d) If not sooner paid as required herein, then the principal indebtedness evidenced by each Note shall
be payable as follows: 
 (i) the amount of each payment required pursuant to Section 4.14 shall be payable
as provided therein; and 
 (ii) all outstanding Term Loans shall be payable on the Maturity Date. 
 (e) All or any portion of the Principal Debt at any time outstanding may, at any time and from time to time, be paid or prepaid in whole or in part,
provided that (i) any such prepayment shall be in the amount of $10,000,000 or any greater integral multiple of $1,000,000 (unless the Principal Debt is being repaid in full), (ii) any payment or prepayment of all or any part of any
Eurodollar Borrowing on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period shall be made on a Business Day, as applicable, and shall be preceded by at least three (3) Business Days written notice to Administrative Agent of the date
and amount of such payment or payments, and (iii) any prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period shall be accompanied by a prepayment fee calculated in accordance with
Section 4.1(f) and any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 4.7. In addition, if at any time the amount of any Eurodollar Borrowing is reduced (by payment, prepayment or conversion of a part
thereof) to an amount less than $5,000,000, then such Eurodollar Borrowing shall automatically convert into a Reference Rate Borrowing, and on and after such date the right of Borrower to continue such Eurodollar Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing
shall terminate. 
 (f) Prepayment fees shall be calculated as follows: 
 (i) $100 (for each Lender and for each Eurodollar contract); plus 
 (ii) any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by each Lender to maintain its Eurodollar
Borrowings or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such were obtained, which loss or expense shall be calculated in accordance with Section 4.7. 
 Each Lender’s determination of the amount of any prepayment fee shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 Nothing contained in this Section 4.1 shall relieve Borrower from its obligation to make interest payments to Lenders
on each Interest Payment Date (in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein) in the event the funds held in the Account are insufficient to make such interest payments on any such Interest Payment Date. 
 4.2 Other Fees. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for its account and the accounts of Arrangers and Lenders, the fees in the amounts and
at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 
 4.3 Late Payments. Should any installment of principal or interest or any fee or cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document to Lenders not be paid within three (3) Business Days of when due, or at all times in which an
Event of Default exists, such installment, fee, cost, or other amount (and all Term Loans during the existence of an Event of Default) shall bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the sum of the Reference Rate
plus the Applicable Margin, if any, applicable to Reference Rate Borrowings plus two percent (2.0%) per annum, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due 

  

 -25- 

 
amounts (including, without limitation, interest on past due interest) shall be compounded monthly, on the last day of each calendar month, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable Law. 
 4.4 Taxes. 
 (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account of Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes,
duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings, or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent or any Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its overall net income,
and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which Administrative Agent or such Lender is organized or maintains a lending office (all such non-excluded
taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings, or similar charges and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or
in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section 4.4), Administrative Agent and each Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions,
(iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment, Borrower shall furnish to
Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender, as applicable) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 
 (b) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court, or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any
Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement, or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 
 (c) If Borrower shall be required to deduct or pay any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to
Administrative Agent or any Lender, then Borrower shall also pay to Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable specifies is
necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in all Taxes, including Taxes imposed on or measured by net income) that Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not been
imposed. 
 (d) Borrower agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes
(including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.4) paid by Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, (ii) amounts payable under
Section 4.4(c), and (iii) any liability (including additions to Tax, penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payment under this Section 4.4(d) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date Administrative Agent or any Lender makes a demand therefor,
accompanied by a certificate described in Section 4.10. 
  

 -26- 

 (e) Before giving any notice under this Section 4.4, the affected Lender shall
designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 4.5 Illegality. 
 (a) If any Lender
determines that the introduction of any Law, or any change in any Law or in the interpretation or administration of any Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any
Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make Eurodollar Borrowings, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower through Administrative Agent, any obligation of that Lender to make Eurodollar Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender
notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. 
 (b) If a Lender
determines that it is unlawful to maintain any Eurodollar Borrowing, Borrower shall, upon its receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), prepay in full such Eurodollar Borrowings of such Lender
then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 4.7, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Borrowings to
such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Borrowing. If Borrower is required to so prepay any Eurodollar Borrowing, then concurrently with such prepayment, Borrower shall borrow from the affected
Lender, in the amount of such repayment, a Reference Rate Borrowing. 
 (c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar
Borrowings has been so terminated or suspended, then all Term Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender as Eurodollar Borrowings shall be instead Reference Rate Borrowings. 
 (d) Before giving any notice to Administrative Agent under this Section 4.5, the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending
Office with respect to its Eurodollar Rate Borrowings if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

 4.6 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return. 
 (a) If any Lender determines that, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements described in
Section 4.9 and other than a change in income tax rates or the manner of computing income taxes of any Lender) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance by that Lender with any guideline
imposed or request made by any central bank or other Governmental Authority after the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding, or maintaining
any Eurodollar Borrowings, then if such Lender generally is assessing such amounts to its borrowers that are similarly situated as Borrower, Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon five (5) days prior notice and receipt
of a certificate described in Section 4.10 (with a copy of such notice and certificate to be sent to Administrative Agent), pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, additional amounts as are sufficient to
compensate such Lender for such increased costs. 
  

 -27- 

 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy
Regulation, (ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation
or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling such Lender with any Capital Adequacy Regulation described in clauses (i) through
(iii) above, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such
corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its Term Loans or obligations under this Agreement, then, upon
five (5) days prior notice (accompanied by a certificate described in Section 4.10) of such Lender to Borrower through Administrative Agent, if such Lender generally is assessing such amounts to its borrowers that are
similarly situated as Borrower, Borrower shall pay to such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increase. 
 (c) Before giving any notice under this Section 4.6, the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office if such
designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 4.7 Funding Losses. Borrower shall reimburse each Lender and hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense (to the extent not duplicative of
a charge imposed and paid under Section 4.1(f)) which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of: 
 (a) the
failure of Borrower to borrow, continue, or redesignate any portion of a Term Loan after Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Request for Redesignation of Borrowing; or 
 (b) any payment (including after acceleration of a Eurodollar Borrowing) of a Eurodollar Borrowing on a day that is not the last day of the relevant
Interest Period; or 
 (c) the automatic conversion under Section 4.1(e) of any Eurodollar Borrowing to a Reference Rate
Borrowing on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period; 
 including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or
reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its Eurodollar Borrowings or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained (but excluding any loss of anticipated profit). 
 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrower to Lenders under this Section 4.7 (and Section 4.1(f) above), each
Eurodollar Borrowing (and each related reserve, special deposit, or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at the Eurodollar Rate by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the interbank eurodollar market for a
comparable amount and for a comparable period, regardless of whether such Eurodollar Borrowing is so funded. Any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 4.7 shall provide to Borrower a certificate setting forth in
reasonable detail the amount of loss or expense to be paid to it hereunder, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
  

 -28- 

 4.8 Inability to Determine Rates. If (a) Administrative Agent determines that for any reason
adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Borrowing, or (b) the Majority Term A Lenders determine that the Eurodollar Rate applicable
pursuant to Section 4.1(c) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Borrowing does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurodollar Borrowing, then, in the case
of (a), Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender and, in the case of (b), such Lenders will promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower. Thereafter, the obligation of Lenders to make or
maintain Eurodollar Borrowings, as the case may be, hereunder shall be suspended until Administrative Agent (in the case of (a)) revokes or Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Majority Term A Lenders (in the case of
(b)) revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any Request for Redesignation of Borrowing then submitted by it. If Borrower does not revoke such request, then Lenders shall convert or continue the
Term Loans, as proposed by Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by Borrower, but such Term Loans shall be made, converted, or continued as Reference Rate Borrowings instead of Eurodollar Borrowings. As of the date of
this Agreement, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has made the determination or is aware of the conditions referenced in the first sentence of this Section 4.8. 
 4.9 Reserves on Eurodollar Borrowings. Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the
FRB to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest or other costs on the unpaid principal amount of
each Eurodollar Borrowing equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Eurodollar Borrowing by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each
date on which interest is payable on such Eurodollar Borrowing, provided Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice (with a copy to Administrative Agent) of such additional interest
from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.  
 4.10 Certificates of Lenders. Any Lender claiming reimbursement or compensation under this Article 4 shall deliver to Borrower
(with a copy to Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to such Lender hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower in the absence of manifest error. 
 4.11 Substitution of Lenders. Upon the receipt by Borrower from any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) of a claim for
compensation under Section 4.4, Section 4.6, or Section 4.9 or, to the extent such problem affects less than the Majority Term A Lenders, notice of a Lender’s inability to fund Eurodollar
Borrowings under Section 4.5, Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Term Loans (with the assignment fee to be paid by Borrower in such instance)
pursuant to Section 11.6(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees procured by Borrower. Borrower shall (a) pay (or cause to be paid) in full all principal, interest, fees, and other amounts owing to such Lender
through the date of replacement (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.4, Section 4.6, Section 4.7, Section 4.9, and Section 11.12), and (b) release such Lender
from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Any Lender being replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s outstanding Term Loans. 
  

 -29- 

 4.12 Survival. The agreements and obligations of Borrower in Section 4.4,
Section 4.6, Section 4.7, and Section 4.9 shall survive for one (1) year following the payment and performance in full of all Obligations. 
 4.13 Manner and Treatment of Payments. The amount of each payment hereunder or on each Note shall be made without condition or deduction for any
counterclaim, defense, recoupment, or setoff to Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Lender in immediately available funds on the day of payment (which must be a Business Day). Any payment received after 1:00 p.m. on any
Business Day, shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. The amount of all payments received by Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender shall be promptly paid by Administrative Agent to the applicable Lender(s) in
immediately available funds (and any such payment not remitted on the same Business Day that it is deemed received by Administrative Agent shall thereafter be payable by Administrative Agent to the applicable Lender(s) together with interest at the
overnight Federal Funds Rate, as such rate is reasonably determined by Administrative Agent). Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or on each Note is due on a day that is not a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business
Day; provided that the extension shall be included in the computation of interest owing on the next following Interest Payment Date. Any payment of the principal of any Eurodollar Borrowing shall be made on a Business Day as applicable.

 4.14 Mandatory Prepayment. In the event that the aggregate Principal Debt of the Term Loans plus all other Senior Unsecured Home
Building Debt at any time exceeds the limitations specified in Section 3.6 (whether because of the outstanding amount of the Term Loans, or because of the other outstanding Senior Unsecured Home Building Debt), Borrower shall,
within three (3) Business Days, make a prepayment of Senior Unsecured Home Building Debt or cash collateralize L/C Obligations under and as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement in such amount as is necessary to cause Borrower to comply
with the limitations of Section 3.6. 
 ARTICLE 5: SECURITY. The Obligations shall be secured by the liens granted by Borrower
pursuant to the Security Agreement, until such liens are released pursuant to the terms thereof, and any other liens granted to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE 6: CONDITIONS. 
 6.1 Conditions to Effectiveness of this Agreement and Disbursement of Term Loans. The effectiveness of this Agreement and the obligation of Lenders to make the Term Loans are expressly conditioned upon satisfaction of all of the

business and to own and lease its properties. 
 (c) Borrower shall have paid all fees due and payable pursuant to the Fee Letter.

bound or affected. 
 (d) Borrower, each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), and each Guarantor are not in default under any Law,
order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination, award, indenture, agreement, lease, or instrument described in Sections 7.2(c)(iv) or 7.2(c)(v), where such default could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. 
 (e) No authorization, consent, approval, order, license, permit, or exemption from, or filing, registration, or
qualification with, any Governmental Authority not heretofore obtained is or will be required under applicable Law to authorize or permit the execution, delivery, and performance by Borrower or any Guarantor of, all of its obligations under, the
Loan Documents. 
  

 -32- 

 (f) Each of the Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party, when executed and delivered, will constitute
the legal, valid, and binding obligations of Borrower, and the Guaranty, when executed and delivered, will constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligation of each Guarantor, each enforceable against such Person in accordance with its terms,
except as enforcement may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws or equitable principles relating to the granting of specific performance or other equitable remedies as a matter of judicial discretion. 
 7.3 Compliance with Laws and Other Requirements. Borrower is in compliance with all Laws and other requirements applicable to its business and has
obtained all material authorizations, consents, approvals, orders, licenses, permits, and exemptions from, and has accomplished all filings, registrations, or qualifications with, any Governmental Authority that is necessary for the transaction of
its business, in each case except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and except for authorizations, consents, approvals, orders, licenses, permits, and exemptions relating to the
development, construction, and sale of real property that Borrower is in the process of obtaining or intends to obtain in the ordinary course of business. 
 7.4 Subsidiaries. 
 (a) Exhibit G correctly sets forth, as of the last day of the
most recent fiscal quarter of Borrower, the names and jurisdictions of incorporation or formation of all Subsidiaries, Homebuilding Joint Ventures, and other entities in which Borrower has a direct or indirect ownership interest (but excluding
publicly-traded Persons in which Borrower, directly or indirectly, holds less than a five percent (5%) ownership interest). Except as described in Exhibit G, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter of Borrower,
excluding publicly-traded Persons in which Borrower, directly or indirectly, holds less than a five percent (5%) ownership interest, Borrower does not own any capital stock or ownership interest in any Person other than its Subsidiaries and
Homebuilding Joint Ventures. All outstanding shares of capital stock or ownership interests, as the case may be, of each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) and Homebuilding Joint Venture that are owned by Borrower or any Subsidiary are
(i) owned of record and beneficially by Borrower and/or by one (1) or more Subsidiaries, free and clear of all material liens, claims, encumbrances, and rights of others (other than liens permitted under Section 8.11 or
other liens that secure the Principal Debt on a pari passu basis with other Senior Unsecured Homebuilding Debt), and are (ii) duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable (except for capital calls or contribution requirements in
connection with ownership interests in Homebuilding Joint Ventures), and issued in compliance with all applicable state and federal securities and other Laws, except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Borrower may update Exhibit G from time to time by sending written notice to Administrative Agent. 
 (b)
Each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) is a corporation, partnership, or limited liability company duly incorporated or formed, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of incorporation or
formation, is duly qualified to do business as, and is in good standing as, a foreign corporation, partnership, or limited liability company in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties
makes such qualification necessary (except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), and has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to own and lease its
properties. 
  

 -33- 

 (c) Each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) is in compliance with all Laws and other
requirements applicable to its business and has obtained all authorizations, consents, approvals, orders, licenses, permits, and exemptions from, and has accomplished all filings, registrations, or qualifications with, any Governmental Authority
that is necessary for the transaction of its business, in each case except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and except for consents, approvals, orders, licenses, permits, and exemptions
relating to the development, construction, and sale of real property that each such Subsidiary is in the process of obtaining or intends to obtain in the ordinary course of business. 
 7.5 Financial Statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Borrower has furnished to Lenders that are parties to this Agreement on the Closing
Date a copy of the Form 10-K of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the period ended December 31, 2005 (and all other information required by Section 8.1(b)). The financial statements and the notes thereto included in such
Form 10-K fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at the dates specified therein and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, all
in conformity with GAAP. 
 7.6 No Material Adverse Change. There has been no material adverse change in the condition, financial or
otherwise, of Borrower and its Subsidiaries (excluding the Excluded Subsidiaries), taken as a whole, from the financial condition of Borrower and its Subsidiaries (excluding the Excluded Subsidiaries), taken as a whole, since December 31, 2005,
and Borrower and its Subsidiaries (excluding the Excluded Subsidiaries), taken as a whole, do not have any material liability incurred outside of the ordinary course of business or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, material contingent liability,
not reflected or disclosed in the financial statements or notes thereto described in Section 7.5 (or, to the extent that financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 8.1, in the most recently
delivered financial statements), or otherwise disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing. 
 7.7 Tax Liability. Borrower and each
Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) have filed all material tax returns (federal, state, and local) required to be filed by them and have paid all material taxes shown thereon to be due and all property taxes due, including interest and
penalties, if any. To the best knowledge of Borrower, there does not exist any substantial likelihood that any Governmental Authority will successfully assert a tax deficiency against Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary)
that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been adequately reserved against in the financial statements described in Section 7.5 (or, to the extent that financial statements have been
delivered pursuant to Section 8.1, in the most recently delivered financial statements). Borrower and each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) have established and are maintaining adequate reserves for tax liabilities,
if any, sufficient to comply with GAAP. 
 7.8 Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims, or disputes pending or,
to the best knowledge of Borrower, threatened against Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), or any property of Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), before any Governmental Authority which could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 7.9 Pension Plan. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary (other than an
Excluded Subsidiary) maintains or contributes to any Plan (other than (a) the 401(k) plans presently sponsored 

  

 -34- 

 
by Borrower as to which Borrower has complied with all applicable Laws (except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect), and (b) Plans of any Persons formed or acquired by Borrower or any Subsidiary as permitted under Section 8.14 or 8.17). 
 7.10 Regulations U and X; Investment Company Act. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) is engaged
principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the meanings of Regulation U of the FRB. No
part of the Term Loans will be used to purchase or carry any margin stock (except for purchases of Borrower’s stock by, or on behalf of, Borrower otherwise permitted hereunder and that is subsequently retired or retained by Borrower as treasury
stock), or to extend credit to others for that purpose, or for any purpose that violates the provisions of Regulations U or X of the FRB. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) is or is required to
be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. 
 7.11 No Default. No event has occurred and is continuing that is a
Default or an Event of Default. 
 7.12 Environmental Compliance. In connection with the acquisition of properties, Borrower and its
Subsidiaries (other than the Excluded Subsidiaries) generally conduct in the ordinary course of business a review of the environmental condition of such properties and any claims alleging potential liability or responsibility for violation of
Environmental Laws. In the course of the operation of its business, nothing has come to the attention of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Excluded Subsidiaries) causing it to conclude that there are any violations of Environmental
Laws or claims alleging potential liability or responsibility for violation of Environmental Laws that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 7.13 Solvent. Borrower and its Subsidiaries are, on a consolidated basis, Solvent. 
 7.14 Senior
Debt. All obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to pay principal, interest, fees, and other amounts included in the Obligations are senior debt under the terms of all Subordinated Debt of Borrower and its Subsidiaries
(other than the Excluded Subsidiaries). 
 ARTICLE 8: COVENANTS OF BORROWER.

 8.1 Reporting Requirements. Borrower shall cause to be delivered to Administrative Agent, in form and detail satisfactory to Administrative Agent

by and with the opinion of Ernst & Young LLP (or its successors), KPMG (or its successors), Price Waterhouse Coopers (or its successors), Deloitte & Touche (or its successors), or any other independent certified public accountants
of recognized standing selected by Borrower and reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, which opinion shall be unqualified except as to such matters as are acceptable to the Aggregate Majority Lenders (“Acceptable Audit
Opinion”); 
 (d) as soon as available and in any event within ninety (90) days after the end of each such Guarantor’s
fiscal year, unaudited balance sheets and statements of income of such Guarantor, all in reasonable detail and duly certified by the chief financial officer, corporate controller, or treasurer of Borrower;

Borrower proposes to take with respect thereto, and (ii) demonstrating in reasonable detail that Borrower was in compliance during the applicable period with the covenants set forth in Sections 8.17, 8.18, 8.19, and
8.20, (including a reconciliation of the amounts used to calculate the covenants pursuant to Sections 8.18, 8.19, and 8.20 to such financial statements); 
 (f) as soon as available and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar year, a projected operating budget of Borrower
for the succeeding twelve (12) months; and including for each of Borrower’s real estate development projects for each quarter (i) the number of projected closings of Units, and (ii) projected revenue (including the aggregate of
all amounts projected to be generated from any source in connection with the sale of Units to the public); 
 (g) promptly upon Borrower
learning thereof, notice in writing of any action, suit, or proceeding before any Governmental Authority which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; 
 (h) such other information about the business, assets, operation, or condition, financial or otherwise, of Borrower or any Subsidiary, as any Lender
(through Administrative Agent) may reasonably request from time to time; 
  

 -36- 

 (i) as soon as available and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar
quarter, a residential development summary substantially in the form previously submitted to Administrative Agent; 
 (j) as soon as
practicable, and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter, monthly projections for the next succeeding twelve (12) month period of cash flow for Borrower (except for the March 31 reporting which
may be for the next succeeding nine (9) months), in the form previously delivered to each Lender; and 
 (k) as soon as practicable, and
in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter, reports showing the actual operating results for the calendar quarter most recently ended compared to the budget provided in accordance with
Section 8.1(f). 
 Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) Administrative Agent and/or Arrangers will make available to
the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the
“Platform”) and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its securities) (each, a
“Public Lender”). Borrower hereby agrees that so long as Borrower is the issuer of any outstanding debt or equity securities that are registered or issued pursuant to a private offering or is actively contemplating issuing
any such securities (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear
prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent, Arrangers, and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any
material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws; (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a
portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor;” and (z) Administrative Agent and Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion
of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be under no obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.” 
 8.2 Payment of Taxes and Other Potential Liens. Borrower shall pay and discharge promptly, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded
Subsidiary) to pay and discharge promptly, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it, upon its property or any part thereof, upon its income or profits or any part thereof, except that neither
Borrower nor any such Subsidiary shall be required to pay or cause to be paid any tax, assessment, charge, or levy that is not yet past due, or being actively contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, as long as Borrower or such
Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established and maintains adequate reserves for the payment of the same and, by reason of nonpayment, no material property of Borrower or any such Subsidiary is in danger of being lost or forfeited. 
 8.3 Preservation of Existence. Except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, Borrower
shall preserve and maintain, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to preserve and maintain, its corporate, partnership, or limited liability company existence, as the case may be, and all licenses, rights, franchises, and
privileges in the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation and all authorizations, consents, 

  

 -37- 

 
approvals, orders, licenses, permits, or exemptions from, or registrations or qualifications with, any Governmental Authority that are necessary for the
transaction of its business, and qualify and remain qualified, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to qualify and remain qualified, to do business as a foreign corporation or partnership in each jurisdiction in which such
qualification is necessary in view of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties; provided that Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or would result therefrom, dissolve, liquidate, or merge out of
existence any Subsidiary. 
 8.4 Maintenance of Properties. Except as permitted by Section 8.16, Borrower shall
maintain, preserve, and protect, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to maintain, preserve, and protect, all of its properties in good order and condition, subject to wear and tear in the ordinary course of business and, in
the case of unimproved properties, damage caused by the natural elements, and not permit any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to permit, any waste of its properties, except that neither (a) the failure to maintain, preserve
and protect a particular item of property that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, nor (b) the failure to maintain, preserve, and protect a particular item of property due to full compliance with a final written
order from a Governmental Authority, will constitute a violation of this Section 8.4. 
 8.5 Maintenance of
Insurance. Borrower shall maintain, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to maintain: (a) insurance with responsible companies in such amounts and against such risks as is usually carried by companies engaged in
similar businesses and owning similar properties in the same general area in which Borrower or any such Subsidiary operates (provided that Borrower and its Subsidiaries may choose to establish a self-insurance program consistent with self-insurance
programs maintained by companies in similar businesses and owning similar properties); and (b) insurance required by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary). 

8.6 Books and Records. Borrower shall maintain, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to maintain, full and complete

of Borrower or any such Subsidiary. 
 8.7 Inspection Rights. At any time during regular business hours, and as often as reasonably
requested, and so long as no Event of Default exists, upon reasonable notice, Borrower shall permit, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to permit, Administrative Agent and each Lender or any employee, agent, or
representative thereof to inspect and make copies and abstracts from the records and books of account of, and to visit and inspect the properties of, Borrower and any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), and to discuss any affairs,
finances, and accounts of Borrower and any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) with any of their respective officers or directors. 
 8.8 Compliance with Laws and Other Requirements. 
 (a) Borrower shall comply, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an
Excluded Subsidiary) to comply, with the requirements of all applicable Laws and orders of any Governmental Authority, noncompliance with which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  

 -38- 

 (b) Borrower shall comply, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary and to the extent
they are so engaged) to comply, with all applicable Laws and other requirements relating to the development of each of its projects and the sale of units therein (where the failure to so comply could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect), and shall obtain, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary and to the extent they are so engaged) to obtain, all necessary authorizations, consents, approvals, licenses, and permits of any Governmental Authority with
respect thereto (except where the failure to so obtain could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). 
 8.9
Subsidiary Guaranties. Borrower shall cause each Material Subsidiary that does not provide a Guaranty hereunder on the Closing Date to provide a Guaranty hereunder and such other documentation required by Administrative Agent, all in form and
substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days after the date on which such Subsidiary qualifies as a Material Subsidiary; provided that if any Subsidiary that provides or has provided a Guaranty
hereunder (i) is sold or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by Section 8.16 to a Person other than Borrower or one of Borrower’s Subsidiaries, or (ii) ceases, at any time, to qualify as a Material
Subsidiary, then, upon the request of Borrower, Administrative Agent shall, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or would result therefrom, release such Subsidiary from its Guaranty pursuant to a release in form and substance reasonably
acceptable to Administrative Agent and Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, (a) as of the date of acquisition, formation, or creation otherwise permitted hereunder of a new Subsidiary that is not a Material Subsidiary, the
aggregate amount of assets (other than ownership interests in, and intercompany indebtedness of, other Subsidiaries) owned by all Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries) that are not Material Subsidiaries exceeds five percent (5%) of
Consolidated Tangible Net Worth, or (b) at any time after the Closing Date any Subsidiary shall execute a guaranty of any Senior Unsecured Homebuilding Debt (other than the Term Loans or any Subordinated Debt), then Borrower shall cause such
Subsidiary (whether or not it is a Material Subsidiary) to provide a Guaranty under this Section 8.9. 
 8.10
Mergers. Borrower shall not merge or consolidate, or permit any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to merge or consolidate, with or into any Person, except that (a) no merger or consolidation in connection with the sale of
Standard Pacific Financing, L.P. or Standard Pacific Financing, Inc. will constitute a violation of this covenant (provided that the corporate existence of Borrower, if a party to such merger or consolidation, is continued), (b) any
Subsidiary may merge into Borrower (provided that the surviving entity is Borrower) or into any other Subsidiary (provided that Borrower complies with Section 8.9), (c) no merger or consolidation in connection
with an acquisition permitted under Section 8.17 will constitute a violation of this covenant (provided that the corporate existence of Borrower, if a party to such merger or consolidation, is continued), and (d) no
merger or consolidation in connection with a disposition permitted under Section 8.16 will constitute a violation of this covenant (provided that the corporate existence of Borrower, if a party to such merger or
consolidation, is continued).

ordinary course of business in respect of obligations that are not overdue or are being actively contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, as long as Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established and maintains adequate
reserves for the payment of the same and, by reason of nonpayment, no property of Borrower or any Subsidiary is in danger of being lost or forfeited; 
 (d) purchase money liens upon or in any property acquired or held by Borrower or any Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation real property, to secure the purchase price of such

real property granted to the master developer or the seller of real property that arises as a result of the non-use or non-development of such real property by Borrower or its Eligible Subsidiaries, or (iii) joint development agreements with
third parties to perform and/or pay for or reimburse the costs of construction and/or development related to or benefiting Borrower’s or its Eligible Subsidiaries’ property and property belonging to such third parties (so long as
Borrower’s or its Eligible Subsidiaries’ obligations under such joint development agreement are not past due), in each case entered into in the ordinary course of Borrower’s or its Eligible Subsidiaries’ business; 
 (o) liens granted pursuant to the Security Agreement; and 
 (p) any other liens not otherwise specified in Subsections 8.11(a) through (o) (except for Judgment Liens and Project Financing Liens, which shall in no event be permitted), so
long as the aggregate amount of indebtedness secured by all such other liens does not at any time exceed $100,000,000. 
 8.12 Prepayment
of Indebtedness. If a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or an acceleration of the indebtedness evidenced by each Note has occurred, Borrower shall not voluntarily prepay, or permit any Subsidiary (other than an

engaging by Borrower or a Subsidiary in or withdrawal from any business related to the homebuilding operations of Borrower, such as security or pest control, and including without limitation technology initiatives related to Borrower’s

 (a)
Subject to the subordination terms applicable to such Subordinated Debt, Borrower may make regularly scheduled and mandatory payments in respect of any Subordinated Debt as and when due by the terms thereof; provided, however, that Borrower

that for purposes of this Section 8.17(b), should Borrower incur any (A) non-cash write-down in assets under FAS 144 (or any successor thereto) or (B) other non-cash decrease in Consolidated Tangible Net Worth
resulting from a change in financial accounting standards, the amount of such write-down or other decrease (less any non-cash increase resulting from assets previously subject to such non-cash write-downs in (A) and (B) above) will be

Period”), to be less than 1.75 to 1.0. 
 An example of the calculation of the Interest Coverage Ratio is as set forth in
Schedule 8.20.

enter into any transaction of any kind with any Affiliate of Borrower, whether or not in the ordinary course of business, other than on fair and reasonable terms substantially as favorable to Borrower or such Subsidiary as would be obtainable by
Borrower or such Subsidiary at the time in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person other than an Affiliate, provided that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to transactions between or among Borrower and any of its

Borrower obtaining actual knowledge of such failure and that such failure, if not remedied, would constitute an Event of Default, or (B) Borrower’s receipt of notice from Administrative Agent, of such failure; or 
 (d) any representation or warranty in any Loan Document or in any certificate (other than the Borrowing Base Certificate), agreement, instrument, or
other document made or delivered pursuant to or in connection with any Loan Document proves to have been incorrect when made in any material respect; or

 9.2 Remedies. Subject to the terms of Section 11.1, if any Event of Default
occurs, Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Majority Term A Lenders: 
 (a) declare the Principal
Debt, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of
intention to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower; and 
 (b) exercise on behalf of itself and Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable law; 
 provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in subsection (h) of Section 9.1, the Principal Debt and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall
automatically become due and payable without further act of Administrative Agent or any Lender and, provided further, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in any subsection of Section 9.1
other than (a), (b), or (h), and, provided that the unpaid principal amounts of all outstanding Loans under the Revolving Credit Agreement have not been declared to be immediately due and

(ii) if such Event of Default is waived by the Aggregate Majority Lenders (or to the extent required by Section 11.1, all Lenders and all Revolving Credit Lenders). 
 9.3 Rights Not Exclusive. The rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges, or remedies provided by law or in equity, or under any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising. 
 ARTICLE 10: ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. 
 10.1 Appointment and Authorization. 
 Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and
authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action in its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any
duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or
liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan
Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom,
and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 
 10.2 Delegation of
Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such
duties. Administrative 

  

 -47- 

 
Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care. 
 10.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. No Agent-Related Persons shall: 
 (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct); or 
 (b) be responsible in any manner to any
of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report,
statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value of or title to any collateral, or the validity, effectiveness,
genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. 
 No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in,
or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books, or records of Borrower or any of Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates. 
 10.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 
 (a) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile or
telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel
(including counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of each Lender as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by
it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent
of the Aggregate Majority Lenders or Majority Term A Lenders, as applicable (or such greater number of Persons as may be expressly required hereby in any instance), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be
binding upon all of the Lenders. 
 (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Article 6,
each Lender that has executed this Agreement and has authorized any release from escrow that may have been delivered with such execution shall be deemed to have consented to, approved, or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other
matter either sent by Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance, or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Lender.

 10.5 Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of
the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Administrative Agent shall have received
written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Administrative Agent will promptly notify Lenders of its receipt of
any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Majority Term A Lenders in accordance with Article 9; provided, however, that unless
and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable
or in the best interest of Lenders. 
 10.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made
any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related
Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of
and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the value of and title to any collateral, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to
the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such
investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to
be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other
condition or creditworthiness of Borrower which may come into the possession of any of Agent-Related Persons. 
 10.7 Indemnification.
Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon demand Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligations of Borrower to do so), pro
rata, from and against any and all liabilities covered by any indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such liabilities resulting solely from such
Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Aggregate Majority
Lenders or the Majority Term A Lenders, as applicable, shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of
any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this 

  

 -49- 

 
Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such
expenses by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so. The undertaking in this Section 10.7 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation of Administrative
Agent. 
 10.8 Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Bank of America and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of
credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though Bank of
America were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or its Affiliates
(including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such Subsidiary) and acknowledge that Bank of America or such Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such information to it. With respect
to its Term Loan, Bank of America shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and
“Lenders” include Bank of America in its individual capacity. 
 10.9 Successor Administrative Agent.
Administrative Agent may (and if it fails to hold the Notes required in Section 11.6(b), shall) resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this
Agreement, the Majority Term A Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor agent for Lenders upon the written consent of Borrower if no Event of Default is outstanding (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If no successor
agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint a successor agent from among Lenders upon the written consent of Borrower if no Event of Default is outstanding (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term
“Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s
resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no
successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall
nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Majority Term A Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. 
 10.10 Tax Forms. 
 (a) (i) Each
Lender that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, prior to the date of its
execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, two (2) duly signed completed copies of either
IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to 

  

 -50- 

 
such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower
pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and certifying
that such Lender is entitled to a complete exemption from withholding taxes on all such payments) or such other evidence satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to a complete exemption from U.S.
withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 881(c) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (A) promptly submit to Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed
copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as
is satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, (B) promptly notify Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (C) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to
it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid or mitigate any requirement of applicable Laws that Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes
from amounts payable to such Foreign Lender. 
 (ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for
its own account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender), shall deliver to Administrative Agent on the date when such
Foreign Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Administrative Agent (in the reasonable exercise of its discretion),
(A) two (2) duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Lender acts for its own
account that is not subject to U.S. withholding tax, and (B) two (2) duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other
certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Lender. 
 (iii) Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Foreign Lender under Section 4.4 (A) with
respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption such Lender transmits with an IRS Form W-8IMY pursuant to this Section 10.10(a) or (B) if such
Lender shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.10(a); provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirement of this Section 10.10(a) on the date such Lender
became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents (and if such Lender thereafter provides forms, certificates, and evidence establishing an exemption or reduction of withholding tax to
the extent such Lender remains legally able to do so), nothing in this Section 10.10(a) shall relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 4.4 in the event that, as a result of any
change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration, or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence
at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender or other Person for the account of which such Lender receives any sums payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate.

  

 -51- 

 (iv) Administrative Agent may, without reduction, withhold any Taxes required to be
deducted and withheld from any payment under any of the Loan Documents with respect to which the Borrower is not required to pay additional amounts under this Section 10.10(a). 
 (b) Upon the request of Administrative Agent, each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Administrative Agent two (2) duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-9. If such Lender fails to deliver such forms, then Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment
to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed by the Code, without reduction. Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Lender under Section 4.4 with respect to any
withholding under this Section 10.10(b). 
 (c) If any Governmental Authority asserts that Administrative Agent did not
properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes
imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section 10.10, and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of the Administrative Agent. The obligation of Lenders under this
Section 10.10 shall survive the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and the resignation of Administrative Agent. 
 10.11 Defaulting Lenders. If for any reason any Lender wrongfully (in violation of this Agreement) fails or refuses to advance its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loans, or otherwise defaults on any of its material obligations under
this Agreement, and fails to cure its default within five (5) Business Days of receiving written notice from Administrative Agent of its failure to perform (such Lender being a “Defaulting Lender”), then in addition to
the rights and remedies that may be available to Administrative Agent and Lenders at law or in equity, the Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in this Agreement will be suspended during the pendency of such Defaulting Lender’s uncured
default, and (without limiting the foregoing) Administrative Agent may (or at the direction of the Majority Term A Lenders, shall) withhold from such Defaulting Lender any interest payments, fees, principal payments, or other sums otherwise payable
to such Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents until such default of such Defaulting Lender has been cured. Each non-defaulting Lender will have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to acquire at par a proportionate share
(based on the ratio of its Term Loans to the aggregate amount of the Term Loans of all of the non-defaulting Lenders that elect to acquire a share of the Defaulting Lender’s Term Loans) of the Principal Debt of the Defaulting Lender’s Term
Loans. The Defaulting Lender will pay and protect, defend, and indemnify Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders against, and hold Administrative Agent, and each of the other Lenders harmless from, all claims, actions, proceedings,
liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including without limitation Attorney Costs, and interest at the Reference Rate plus two percent (2%) per annum for the funds advanced by Administrative Agent or any Lenders on account of the
Defaulting Lender) they may sustain or incur by reason of or in consequence of the Defaulting Lender’s failure or refusal to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may set off against payments due to the
Defaulting Lender for the claims of Administrative Agent and the other Lenders against the Defaulting Lender. The exercise of these remedies will not reduce, diminish or liquidate the Defaulting Lender’s Term Loans (except to the extent that
part or all of such Term Loans is acquired by the other Lenders as specified above) or 

  

 -52- 

 
its obligations to share losses and reimbursement for costs, liabilities and expenses under this Agreement. This indemnification will survive the payment and
satisfaction of all of Borrower’s obligations and liabilities to Lenders. The foregoing provisions of this Section 10.11 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, and may not be enforced or relied upon
by Borrower. 
 10.12 Actions. Administrative Agent shall have the right to commence, appear in, and defend any action or proceeding
purporting to affect the rights or duties of Lenders hereunder or the payment of any funds, and in connection therewith Administrative Agent may pay necessary expenses, employ counsel, and pay Attorney Costs. Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative
Agent, within five (5) Business Days after demand, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection therewith, including without limitation reasonable Attorney Costs, together with interest thereon from the date
which is five (5) Business Days after demand until paid at a rate per annum equal to the Reference Rate plus the Applicable Margin, if any, applicable to Reference Rate Borrowings plus two percent (2%). 
 10.13 Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent and Co-Agent. No Lender or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this
Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “co-agent,” “managing agent,” “book manager,” “arranger,” “lead
arranger,” or “co-arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility, or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting
the foregoing, no Lender or other Person so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any other Lender or other Person so identified
in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 
 10.14 Approval of Lenders. 
 (a) All communications from Administrative Agent to Lenders requesting Lenders’ determination, consent, approval, or disapproval (i) shall be
given in the form of a written notice to each Lender, (ii) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or thing as to which such determination, approval, consent, or disapproval is requested, or shall advise each Lender where such
matter or thing may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (iii) shall include, if reasonably requested by a Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary
of all oral information provided to Administrative Agent by Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (iv) shall include Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Each
Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within fifteen (15) Business Days (or such lesser period as may be required under the Loan Documents for Administrative Agent to respond) after receipt of the request therefor by Administrative
Agent (in either event, the “Lender Reply Period”). 
 (b) Unless a Lender shall give written notice to
Administrative Agent that it objects to the recommendation or determination of Administrative Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) contained in a request described in clause (a) above
that is marked “REQUEST FOR APPROVAL” within the Lender Reply Period, such Lender shall be deemed to have approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination. 
 10.15 Proofs of Claim In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment,
composition or other judicial proceeding relative 

  

 -53- 

 
to Borrower, any Subsidiary, or any Guarantor, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether any Principal Debt shall then be due and payable as herein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (a) to file and prove a claim for
the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Term Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders
and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts then due Lenders and Administrative
Agent) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator,
sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts then due to Administrative Agent.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the
rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 10.16
Collateral Matters. 
 (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as Collateral Agent under the
Security Agreement and the Collateral Agency Agreement and authorizes Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Collateral Agent by the terms of the Security Agreement and the Collateral
Agency Agreement, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Lenders irrevocably authorize Collateral Agent at its option and in its discretion to release any lien on any property granted to or held by Collateral
Agent under the Security Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof and the Collateral Agency Agreement. 
 (b) Each Lender authorizes
Administrative Agent to execute and deliver the Collateral Agency Agreement on behalf of such Lender, and each Lender acknowledges that, upon such execution and delivery by Administrative Agent, such Lender shall be bound by all of the provisions of
the Collateral Agency Agreement (and the actions taken by Administrative Agent as its “Creditor Representative” thereunder and as defined therein) as if it were a signatory thereto. 
  

 -54- 

 ARTICLE 11: MISCELLANEOUS. 
 11.1 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with respect to
any departure by Borrower or any Subsidiary therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Term A Lenders (or by Administrative Agent at the written request of the Majority Term A Lenders), and Borrower
and acknowledged by Administrative Agent, and then any such waiver of consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no waiver, amendment, or consent described in
any of clauses (a) through (j) below shall do any of the following without the written consent of the Persons required by such clause (and without the requirement for written consent by Majority
Term A Lenders): 
 (a) increase or extend the Term Loans of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender; 
 (b) extend, postpone, or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of all or any part of the Obligations due to
Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; 
 (c)
reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on any Term Loan, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; 
 (d) amend any provision of Section 3.5 or 3.6 or Article 7, 8, or 9 (or any
defined term used in any such Section or Article), without the written consent of Aggregate Majority Lenders; 
 (e) amend the definition of Majority Term A Lenders without the written consent of all Lenders; 
 (f) amend the definition of
Aggregate Majority Lenders without the written consent of all Lenders and all Revolving Credit Lenders;

consent of all Lenders and all Revolving Credit Lenders; 
 (h) any provision herein expressly providing for the agreement, consent or other
action by all Lenders, Aggregate Majority Lenders, or both all Lenders and all Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, without the written consent of all Lenders, Aggregate Majority Lenders, or all Lenders and all Revolving Credit Lenders, as
applicable; 
 (i) discharge any Guarantor without the written consent of all Lenders (except as provided in Section 8.9
and where the consent of the Majority Term A Lenders or Aggregate Majority Lenders only is specifically provided for); 
  

 -55- 

 (j) amend Section 3.8 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments
required thereby without the written consent of each Lender; 
 and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in
writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, required above, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (ii) the
Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any
amendment, waiver, or consent hereunder, except that the Term Loan of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender. 
 11.2 Costs, Expenses, and Taxes. Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation,
and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent, or other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated), and the
consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney Costs, and (b) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent and each Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the
Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), including all Attorney Costs. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance, and appraisal charges
and fees and taxes related thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent. All amounts due under this Section 11.2 shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor. Any amount
payable to Administrative Agent and any Lender under this Section 11.2 shall, from the date of demand for payment, and any other amount payable to Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents which is not paid when due or within
any applicable grace period shall, thereafter, bear interest at the rate in effect under each Note with respect to Reference Rate Borrowings. The agreements in this Section 11.2 shall survive the repayment of all Obligations.

 11.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Administrative Agent or any
Lender, any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder or provided by Law. 
 11.4 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that Borrower
makes a payment to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises their respective right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to
be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other party, in connection with any Debtor
Relief Laws, then (a) to the extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not
occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its Pro Rata Share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent plus interest thereon 

  

 -56- 

 
from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 
 11.5 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or transfer
any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement except in accordance with Section 11.6. 
 11.6 Assignments,
Participations, etc. 
 (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of
Section 11.6(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 11.6(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be
null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in
Section 11.6(d), and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one (1) or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Term Loans at the time owing to it); provided that: (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Term Loans at the time owing to it or in the
case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Term Loans subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment
is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, and integral multiples thereof, unless each of Administrative
Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Term Loans assigned; (iii) any assignment of Term Loans must be approved by Administrative Agent unless the Person that is the proposed
assignee is itself a Lender, or a Lender Affiliate having total assets in excess of $10,000,000,000 as reflected on its most current financial statements (whether or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee) each
such consent not be to unreasonably withheld or delayed; (iv) after giving effect to such assignment, unless the assigning Lender is assigning all of its rights and Term Loans hereunder, the assigning Lender shall retain Term Loans with a
Principal Debt of at least $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount agreed to by Borrower and Administrative Agent); and (v) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a
processing and recordation fee of $3,500. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.6(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible
Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest 

  

 -57- 

 
assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, 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 Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under
this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.4, 4.6, 4.7, 11.2, and 11.12 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the
effective date of such assignment). Upon request, Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver Note(s) to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
Section 11.6(b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 11.6(d). 
 (c) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Lending Office a copy of
each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the Term Loans of, and Principal Debt owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
“Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes
of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (d) Any Lender may at any time sell participations to any Eligible Assignee (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such
Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Term Loans and/or the Principal Debt owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain
unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver, or other
modification described in the first proviso to Section 11.1 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 11.6(e), Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 4.4, 4.6, 4.7, and 11.7 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant
also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.8 as though it were a Lender. 
 (e) A Participant shall not be
entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.4 or 4.6 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.4 unless Borrower is
notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 10.10 as though it were a Lender. 
  

 -58- 

 (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such
Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 11.7
Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Lenders provided by Law, if an Event of Default exists or the Term Loans have been accelerated, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrower,
any such notice being waived by Borrower 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 excluding Borrower’s customer or regulatory trust accounts) at
any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any and all Obligations owing to Lenders, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not Administrative
Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and
application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
 11.8 Automatic Debits. With respect to any principal or interest payment, commitment fee or usage fee due and payable to Administrative Agent or Lenders under the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby irrevocably
authorizes Administrative Agent to debit any deposit account of Borrower with Bank of America and hereby agrees to irrevocably direct in writing the holder of any deposit account to debit any deposit account of Borrower (excluding Borrower’s
customer or regulatory trust accounts), in amounts specified by Administrative Agent from time to time such that the aggregate amount debited from all such deposit accounts does not exceed such payment, fee, other cost or expense. Administrative
Agent shall use its best efforts to give Borrower advance notice of each debit, but failure of Administrative Agent to give such notice shall not invalidate its authorization hereunder. If there are insufficient funds in such deposit accounts to
cover the amount of the payment, fee, other cost or expense then due, such debits will be reversed (in whole or in part, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) and such amount not debited shall be deemed to be unpaid. No such debit under
this Section 11.8 shall be deemed a set-off. 
 11.9 Notification of Addresses, Lending Offices, Etc. Each Lender
shall notify Administrative Agent in writing of any changes in the address to which notices to such Lender should be directed, of addresses of any Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of
such other administrative information as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. 
 11.10 Survival of Representations and
Warranties. All representations and warranties of Borrower contained herein or in any certificate or other writing delivered by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document will survive the making and repayment of the Term Loans and
the execution and delivery of each Note, and have been or will be relied upon by each Lender, notwithstanding any investigation made by such Lender or on its behalf. 
  

 -59- 

 11.11 Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein or in each Note: 
 (a) General. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing
(including by facsimile transmission). All such written notices shall be mailed certified or registered mail, faxed, or delivered to the applicable address, facsimile number, or (subject to Section 11.11(c)) electronic mail
address, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address, or telephone number specified for
such Person on the signature pages to this Agreement or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address, or telephone number as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties. 
 (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication
(including e mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article 3 if such Lender has notified
Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. Administrative Agent or Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic
communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as between Borrower and Administrative Agent, electronic mail, the
Internet, intranet websites, and facsimile may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information as provided in Section 8.1, and to distribute Loan Documents for execution by the
parties thereto, and may not be used for any other purpose. 
 (c) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents
may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on Borrower, Administrative
Agent, and the Lenders. Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the
effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature. 
 (d) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent and
the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower even if such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of
notice specified herein. Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower. All
telephonic notices to and other communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
 11.12 Indemnity by Borrower. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each
Agent-Related Person, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents, and attorneys-in-fact 

  

 -60- 

 
(collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out
of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter, or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Term Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (c) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation, or proceeding relating to any of the
foregoing, whether based on contract, tort, or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation, or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a
party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE; provided that such
indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements have (x) resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, or (y) arose out of the dispute among any one or more Lenders that does not involve Borrower or any Subsidiary as a party to such dispute. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages
arising from the use by Persons other than its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents, and attorneys-in-fact of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in
connection with this Agreement, nor shall any Indemnitee have any liability for any indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether
before or after the Closing Date). All amounts due under this Section 11.12 shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section 11.12 shall survive the
resignation of Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction, or discharge of all the other Obligations. 
 11.13 Integration and Severability. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements,
written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental
rights or remedies in favor of Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall
be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Document is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the legality, validity,
and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such
provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 11.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts,
each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument. Facsimile transmission of any signed original document and/or retransmission of
any signed facsimile 

  

 -61- 

 
transmission will be deemed the same as delivery of an original. At the request of any party, the parties will confirm facsimile transmission by signing a
duplicate original document. 
 11.15 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and
legal benefit of Borrower, Lenders, Administrative Agent and Agent-Related Persons, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or
claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 11.16 Section Headings. Section headings in this
Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and are not part of this Agreement for any other purpose. 
 11.17 Time of the
Essence. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents. 
 11.18 Governing Law. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND
CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF. 
 11.19 Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR
RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR
OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS (SUBJECT TO EACH PARTY’S RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 11.19 REGARDING REFERENCE AND ARBITRATION) THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION
SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 11.19 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE
WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 
 11.20 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on
behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify, and
record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower in accordance with the Act.

 11.21 Entirety. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EXECUTED BY BORROWER , ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, OR THE LENDERS REPRESENT
THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AND THE LENDERS AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BY THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.

  

 -62- 

 11.22 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction
contemplated hereby, Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in
connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, on
the other hand, and Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other
modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, the Administrative Agent and each Arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for
Borrower or any of its Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (iii) neither Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Borrower
with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent
or any Arranger has advised or is currently advising Borrower or any of its Affiliates on other matters) and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the Administrative Agent, each Arranger, and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve
interests that differ from those of Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the
Administrative Agent and the Arrangers have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof
or of any other Loan Document) and Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it
may have against the Administrative Agent and each Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty. 
 11.23 California Judicial Reference. If any action or proceeding is filed in a court of the State of California by or against any party hereto in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, (a) the court shall, and is hereby directed to, make a general reference pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq. to a referee (who shall be a single active or retired judge) to hear and
determine all of the issues in such action or proceeding (whether of fact or of law) and to report a statement of decision, provided that at the option of any party to such proceeding, any such issues pertaining to a “provisional
remedy” as defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1281.8 shall be heard and determined by the court, and (b) without limiting the generality of Sections 11.2 and 11.12, Borrower
shall be solely responsible to pay all fees and expenses of any referee appointed in such action or proceeding.

 3.1 Term Loans. 
 (a)
Subject to the provisions in the Loan Documents, each Lender severally and not jointly agrees to lend to Borrower, in a single advance on the Closing Date, a Term Loan in the amount of such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. The Term Loans shall

 -16- 

 (b) Unless Administrative Agent otherwise consents, the aggregate amount of each Eurodollar Borrowing
shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000, but not less than $5,000,000, the aggregate amount of each Reference Rate Borrowing shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000, but not less than $500,000. 
 (c) The Term Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by Administrative Agent in the
ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Term Loans made by the Lenders to Borrower and the interest and payments thereon.
Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and
records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender
made through Administrative Agent, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Term Loans in addition to such accounts or records. 
 (d) Unless Administrative Agent otherwise consents, no more than [ten (10)] Eurodollar Borrowings in the aggregate shall be outstanding at any one time.

 3.2 Reference Rate Borrowings. All Term Loans shall at all times constitute Reference Rate Borrowings unless properly designated or

all or a portion of such Eurodollar Borrowing be continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing by notice to Administrative Agent, at Administrative Agent’s Lending Office, not later than 12:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business Days before the
first (1st) day of the Interest Period requested for such continued Eurodollar Borrowing; provided that the Interest Period for such continued Eurodollar Borrowing shall end on or before the Maturity Date. If no such request for
continuation is made, such Eurodollar Borrowing shall automatically be redesignated as a Reference Rate Borrowing on such date. 
 (b) At or
about 12:00 p.m. two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (or the last day of the Interest Period applicable to a Eurodollar Borrowing to be continued pursuant to clause (a) above), Administrative Agent shall

 3.4 Redesignation of Borrowings. 
 (a) If any Eurodollar Borrowing is not repaid on the last day of
the applicable Interest Period, and Borrower has not requested that such Eurodollar Borrowing be continued pursuant to Section 3.3, then such Eurodollar Borrowing shall automatically be redesignated as a Reference Rate Borrowing
on such date. 
 (b) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, at any time and from time to time from the Closing Date
until one (1) month preceding the Maturity Date, Borrower may request that all or a portion of outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings be redesignated as a Eurodollar Borrowing; provided that the Interest Period for such Eurodollar
Borrowing shall end on or before the Maturity Date. 
 (c) Each redesignation of all or a portion of outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings as
a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be made pursuant to a written Request for Redesignation of Borrowing. Not later than 12:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the first (1st) day of the applicable Interest Period, Administrative Agent shall have received, at Administrative Agent’s Lending Office, a properly completed
Request for Redesignation of Borrowing specifying (i) the requested date of redesignation, (ii) the requested amount of Reference Rate Borrowings to be redesignated as a Eurodollar Borrowing, and (iii) the requested Interest Period.
Administrative Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, permit a Request for Redesignation of Borrowing to be made by telecopier or by telephone (with confirmation sent promptly by telecopier) by Borrower. 
 (d) Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of a Request for Redesignation by 2:00 p.m. on the date of timely receipt of a Request
for Redesignation from Borrower. All redesignations shall be made ratably according to the respective Principal Debt of the Term Loans with respect to which the Request for Redesignation was given is then held by each Lender. 
 (e) Unless Administrative Agent otherwise consents, the amount of Reference Rate Borrowings to be redesignated as a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be an

 (f) With respect to any redesignation of Reference Rate Borrowing as a
Eurodollar Borrowing, at or about 12:00 p.m. two (2) Business Days prior to the first (1st) day of

telephone or telecopier. 
 (g) Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in this Agreement, the redesignation of all or a
portion of outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings as a Eurodollar Borrowing shall become effective on the first (1st) day of the applicable Interest Period. 
  

 -18- 

 (h) A Request for Redesignation of Borrowing shall be irrevocable upon receipt by Administrative Agent.

 (i) Nothing contained herein shall require Lenders to fund any Eurodollar Borrowing resulting from redesignation of all or a portion of
any of the Reference Rate Borrowings in the London interbank eurodollar market. 
 (j) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
unless all of Lenders otherwise agree, during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default (i) Borrower may not elect to have any portion of a Term Loan converted into a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) each Eurodollar Borrowing shall,
on the last day of its respective Interest Period, be redesignated as a Reference Rate Borrowing. 
 3.5 Calculation of Borrowing
Base. The following provisions in this Section 3.5 shall apply at all times in which an Investment Grade Rating does not exist. 
 (a) Borrowing Base. The Borrowing Base shall be calculated in the manner set forth in Section 3.5(a) of the Revolving Credit Agreement (as such provision may be amended from time to time) and
Administrative Agent shall be provided on behalf of the Lenders, at least quarterly (and such number of additional times as Borrower may desire or as may reasonably be required by the Majority Term B Lenders), a certificate of Borrower (signed by a
Responsible Official of Borrower) that sets forth the amount of the borrowing base (the “Borrowing Base Certificate”). If the Revolving Credit Agreement is terminated, the Borrowing Base shall continue to be calculated in the
manner set forth in such Section 3.5(a) as such Section existed immediately prior to such termination as if the Revolving Credit Agreement had not been terminated. 
 (b) Amount of Borrowing Base. As used herein in the Agreement, the term “Borrowing Base” shall have the meaning set forth
in this Section 3.5(b): 
 (i) Except as set forth in Sections 3.5(b)(ii), (iii), and
(iv), the Borrowing Base shall consist of the Dollar amount equal to the sum of the following Unencumbered Real Estate Inventory owned by Borrower or any Eligible Subsidiary that is a Guarantor: 
 (A) Entitled Land. Fifty percent (50%) of the GAAP Value of all Entitled Land (subject to the twenty percent
(20%) limitation specified in Section 3.5(b)(iii)); plus 
 (B) Lots Under Development.
Sixty-five percent (65%) of the GAAP Value of all Lots Under Development; plus 
 (C) Units Under Construction
and Completed Units. Ninety percent (90%) of the GAAP Value of all Units Under Construction and Completed Units (subject to adjustment for Completed Units as set forth in Section 3.5(b)(ii)); plus 
 (D) Escrow Proceeds Receivable. One hundred percent (100%) of the amount of Escrow Proceeds Receivable. 
 (ii) Advance rates for Completed Units shall decrease as follows with the passage of time following the dates such Units become Completed
Units: (A) 180 days following the 

  

 -19- 

 
date such Units become Completed Units (other than with respect to Model Units, as to which clause (C) shall apply) the applicable advance
rate shall decrease from ninety percent (90%) (as specified in Section 3.5(b)(i)(C) above) to fifty percent (50%); (B) 360 days following the date that such Units become Completed Units (other than with respect to Model
Units, as to which clause (C) shall apply) the applicable advance rate shall decrease from fifty percent (50%) to zero percent (0%) (i.e., no value shall be attributed to the Borrowing Base); and (C) with respect to
Model Units, 180 days following the sale of the last production Unit in the applicable project relating to such Model Unit, the applicable advance rate for such Model Units shall decrease from ninety percent (90%) (as specified in
Section 3.5(b)(i)(C) above) to zero percent (0%) (i.e., no value shall be attributed to the Borrowing Base). 
 (iii) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that more than twenty percent (20%) of the Borrowing Base is attributable to Entitled Land, then any Entitled Land in excess of such twenty percent
(20%) limitation shall have a zero percent (0%) advance rate (i.e., shall add no value to the Borrowing Base). 
 (iv)
Only Real Estate Inventory which is Unencumbered Real Estate Inventory may be added to the Borrowing Base. Any Real Estate Inventory that is not Unencumbered Real Estate Inventory shall have no value for purposes of the Borrowing Base (i.e., a zero
percent (0%) advance rate). Furthermore, Unentitled Land shall have no value for purposes of the Borrowing Base (i.e., a zero percent (0%) advance rate). Once Units or any other Real Estate Inventory are sold and conveyed to a buyer, or otherwise
cease to be owned by Borrower (or any Eligible Subsidiary that is a Guarantor), the applicable advance rate shall decrease to zero percent (0%), and Borrower shall not be entitled to have any value for such assets attributed to the Borrowing Base.
Any Unencumbered Real Estate Inventory that is subject to a Profit and Participation Agreement shall have no value for purposes of the Borrowing Base (i.e., a zero percent (0%) advance rate) if (A) such Profit and Participation Agreement is not
on market terms, as determined in the reasonable discretion of Administrative Agent, or (B) any dispute exists between the parties thereto with respect to the terms of such Profit and Participation Agreement that is in arbitration or
litigation. 
 3.6 Borrowing Base. The sum of the Principal Debt of the Term Loans plus all other Senior Unsecured Home Building Debt
shall not, at any time in which an Investment Grade Rating does not exist, exceed the Borrowing Base. 
 3.7 Payments by Lenders to
Administrative Agent. 
 (a) Unless Administrative Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Closing Date that such Lender
will not make available as and when required hereunder to Administrative Agent for the account of Borrower the amount of that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loans, Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender has made such amount
available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds on the Closing Date and Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If
and to the extent any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds as and when required hereunder, that Lender shall on the Business Day following the Closing Date make such amount
available to Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period. A notice from Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this
subsection (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is so made 

  

 -20- 

 
available, then such payment to Administrative Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Term Loan on the Closing Date for all purposes of this Agreement. If
such amount is not made available to Administrative Agent on the Business Day following Closing Date, then Administrative Agent will notify Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by Administrative Agent, Borrower shall pay such amount to
Administrative Agent for Administrative Agent’s account, together with accrued interest thereon for each day elapsed since the Closing Date, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Term Loans. 
 (b) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.7 are several and not
joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Term Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to make a Term Loan, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Term Loan to be made by
such other Lender. 
 3.8 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on
account of the Obligations made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its Pro Rata Share, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify Administrative Agent of
such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Obligations made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that
if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together
with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender)
of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 11.7) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such
participation. Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 3.8 and will in each case notify Lenders following any
such purchases or repayments. 
 ARTICLE 4: PAYMENTS AND FEES. 
 4.1 Principal and Interest. 
 (a) Interest shall be payable on the outstanding daily unpaid principal
amount of each Term Loan from the date thereof until payment in full is made and shall accrue and be payable at the rates set forth herein both before and after default and before and after maturity and judgment, with interest on overdue interest to
bear interest at the rate specified in Section 4.3. Upon any partial prepayment or redesignation of outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings, interest accrued through the date of such prepayment or redesignation shall be payable on
the next following Interest Payment Date and shall be deducted from the Account on such date. Insufficient funds in the Account shall not excuse Borrower’s obligation to pay accrued interest on the Interest Payment Date. Upon any partial
prepayment or payment in full or redesignation or conversion of any Eurodollar Borrowing, or upon any payment or redesignation in full of all outstanding Reference Rate Borrowings, interest accrued through the date of such prepayment, payment,
redesignation, or conversion shall be payable on the next following Interest Payment Date. 
  

 -21- 

 (b) Interest on each Reference Rate Borrowing shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and
the actual number of days elapsed, at the Reference Rate times the total Principal Debt bearing interest at the Reference Rate under each Note. Interest accrued on each Reference Rate Borrowing shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date,
commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and shall be deducted from the Account on each such Interest Payment Date. Insufficient funds in the Account shall not excuse Borrower’s obligation to pay accrued interest on
the Interest Payment Date. Administrative Agent shall use its best efforts to notify Borrower of the amount of interest so payable prior to each Interest Payment Date, but failure of Administrative Agent to do so shall not excuse payment of such
interest when payable. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.3, the unpaid principal amount of any Reference Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Reference Rate plus the
Applicable Margin, if any, applicable to Reference Rate Borrowings. Each change in the interest rate shall take effect simultaneously with the corresponding change in the Reference Rate. Each change in the Reference Rate shall be effective as of
12:01 a.m. on the Business Day on which the change in the Reference Rate is announced, unless otherwise specified in such announcement, in which case the change shall be effective as so specified. 
 (c) Interest on each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest accrued on
each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date, and shall be deducted from the Account on each such date. Insufficient funds in the Account shall not excuse Borrower’s obligation to pay accrued interest on the Interest
Payment Date. Administrative Agent shall use its best efforts to notify Borrower of the amount of interest so payable prior to each such date, but failure of Administrative Agent to do so shall not excuse payment of such interest when payable.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.3, the unpaid principal amount of any Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for that Eurodollar Borrowing plus the Applicable
Margin applicable to Eurodollar Borrowings. 
 (d) If not sooner paid as required herein, then the principal indebtedness evidenced by each
Note shall be payable as follows: 
 (i) the amount of each payment required pursuant to Section 4.14 shall
be payable as provided therein; and 
 (ii) all outstanding Term Loans shall be payable on the Maturity Date. 
 (e) All or any portion of the Principal Debt at any time outstanding may, at any time and from time to time, be paid or prepaid in whole or in part,
provided that (i) any such prepayment shall be in the amount of $10,000,000 or any greater integral multiple of $1,000,000 (unless the Principal Debt is being repaid in full), (ii) any payment or prepayment of all or any part of any
Eurodollar Borrowing on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period shall be made on a Business Day, as applicable, and shall be preceded by at least three (3) Business Days written notice to Administrative Agent of the date
and amount of such payment or payments, (iii) any prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period shall be accompanied by a prepayment fee calculated in accordance with
Section 4.1(f) and any other amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 4.7, and (iv) if any such prepayment (A) occurs prior to May 5, 2007 and (B) is from proceeds of any indebtedness
incurred for the purpose of refinancing the Obligations, such prepayment shall be accompanied by a prepayment fee equal to one percent (1%) of the aggregate amount of such principal prepaid. In addition, if at any time the amount of any
Eurodollar Borrowing 

  

 -22- 

 
is reduced (by payment, prepayment or conversion of a part thereof) to an amount less than $5,000,000, then such Eurodollar Borrowing shall automatically
convert into a Reference Rate Borrowing, and on and after such date the right of Borrower to continue such Eurodollar Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing shall terminate. 
 (f) Prepayment fees shall be calculated as follows: 
 (i) $100 (for each Lender and for each
Eurodollar contract); plus 
 (ii) any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained
by each Lender to maintain its Eurodollar Borrowings or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such were obtained, which loss or expense shall be calculated in accordance with Section 4.7. 
 Each Lender’s determination of the amount of any prepayment fee shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 Nothing contained in this Section 4.1 shall relieve Borrower from its obligation to make interest payments to Lenders
on each Interest Payment Date (in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein) in the event the funds held in the Account are insufficient to make such interest payments on any such Interest Payment Date. 
 4.2 Other Fees. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for its account and the accounts of Arrangers and Lenders, the fees in the amounts and
at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 
 4.3 Late Payments. Should any installment of principal or interest or any fee or cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document to Lenders not be paid within three (3) Business Days of when due, or at all times in which an
Event of Default exists, such installment, fee, cost, or other amount (and all Term Loans during the existence of an Event of Default) shall bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the sum of the Reference Rate
plus the Applicable Margin, if any, applicable to Reference Rate Borrowings plus two percent (2.0%) per annum, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including, without
limitation, interest on past due interest) shall be compounded monthly, on the last day of each calendar month, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. 
 4.4 Taxes. 
 (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account of Administrative Agent or
any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings, or similar charges, and all liabilities with
respect thereto, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent or any Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision
thereof) under the Laws of which Administrative Agent or such Lender is organized or maintains a lending office (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings, or similar charges and liabilities
being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, then (i) the
sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that 

  

 -23- 

 
after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.4), Administrative
Agent and each Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation
authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender, as applicable)
the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 
 (b) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or
future stamp, court, or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement, or registration of, or
otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 
 (c) If Borrower shall be
required to deduct or pay any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, then Borrower shall also pay to Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, at the time
interest is paid, such additional amount that Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable specifies is necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in all Taxes, including Taxes imposed on or measured by net income) that
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed. 
 (d) Borrower
agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.4)
paid by Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, (ii) amounts payable under Section 4.4(c), and (iii) any liability (including additions to Tax, penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payment under this Section 4.4(d) shall be made within thirty
(30) days after the date Administrative Agent or any Lender makes a demand therefor, accompanied by a certificate described in Section 4.10. 
 (e) Before giving any notice under this Section 4.4, the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such
demand and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Borrower shall not be required to make any payments or reimburse Administrative Agent or any Lender under this Section 4.4 with respect to any Taxes, Other Taxes or other amounts imposed on and paid by
Administrative Agent or such Lender more than six (6) months before the date on which a request for payment or reimbursement is delivered to Borrower (except that, if the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is
retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 
  

 -24- 

 4.5 Illegality. 
 (a) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law, or any change in any Law or in the interpretation or administration of any Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental
Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make Eurodollar Borrowings, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower through Administrative Agent, any obligation of that Lender to make
Eurodollar Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. 
 (b) If a Lender determines that it is unlawful to maintain any Eurodollar Borrowing, Borrower shall, upon its receipt of notice of such fact and demand
from such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), prepay in full such Eurodollar Borrowings of such Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 4.7, either on the last
day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Borrowing. If Borrower is required to
so prepay any Eurodollar Borrowing, then concurrently with such prepayment, Borrower shall borrow from the affected Lender, in the amount of such repayment, a Reference Rate Borrowing. 
 (c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Borrowings has been so terminated or suspended, then all Term Loans which would
otherwise be made by such Lender as Eurodollar Borrowings shall be instead Reference Rate Borrowings. 
 (d) Before giving any notice to
Administrative Agent under this Section 4.5, the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its Eurodollar Rate Borrowings if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making
such demand and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 4.6 Increased Costs
and Reduction of Return. 
 (a) If any Commercial Bank Lender determines that, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change
(other than any change by way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements described in Section 4.9 and other than a change in income tax rates or the manner of computing income taxes of any Commercial Bank Lender) in or
in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance by that Commercial Bank Lender with any guideline imposed or request made by any central bank or other Governmental Authority after the date hereof (whether or not having the
force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to such Commercial Bank Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding, or maintaining any Eurodollar Borrowings, then if such Commercial Bank Lender generally is assessing such amounts to its
borrowers that are similarly situated as Borrower, Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon five (5) days prior notice and receipt of a certificate described in Section 4.10 (with a copy of such notice
and certificate to be sent to Administrative Agent), pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Commercial Bank Lender, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Commercial Bank Lender for such increased costs. 
 (b) If any Commercial Bank Lender shall have determined that (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (ii) any change in any
Capital Adequacy Regulation, (iii) any change in 

  

 -25- 

 
the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation
or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance by such Commercial Bank Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling such Commercial Bank Lender with any Capital Adequacy Regulation described in clauses (i)
through (iii) above, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Commercial Bank Lender or any corporation controlling such Commercial Bank Lender and (taking into consideration such
Commercial Bank Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Commercial Bank Lender’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its Term
Loans or obligations under this Agreement, then, upon five (5) days prior notice (accompanied by a certificate described in Section 4.10) of such Commercial Bank Lender to Borrower through Administrative Agent, if such
Commercial Bank Lender generally is assessing such amounts to its borrowers that are similarly situated as Borrower, Borrower shall pay to such Commercial Bank Lender, from time to time as specified by such Commercial Bank Lender, additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Commercial Bank Lender for such increase. 
 (c) Before giving any notice under this
Section 4.6, the affected Commercial Bank Lender shall designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of such Commercial Bank
Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Commercial Bank Lender. 
 4.7 Funding Losses. Borrower shall reimburse each
Lender and hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense (to the extent not duplicative of a charge imposed and paid under Section 4.1(f)) which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of: 
 (a) the failure of Borrower to borrow, continue, or redesignate any portion of a Term Loan after Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a
Request for Redesignation of Borrowing; or 
 (b) any payment (including after acceleration of a Eurodollar Borrowing) of a Eurodollar
Borrowing on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period; or 
 (c) the automatic conversion under
Section 4.1(e) of any Eurodollar Borrowing to a Reference Rate Borrowing on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period; 
 including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its Eurodollar Borrowings or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained (but excluding
any loss of anticipated profit). 
 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrower to Lenders under this Section 4.7 (and
Section 4.1(f) above), each Eurodollar Borrowing (and each related reserve, special deposit, or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at the Eurodollar Rate by a matching deposit or other borrowing
in the interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, regardless of whether such Eurodollar Borrowing is so funded. Any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 4.7 shall provide to
Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of loss or expense to be paid to it hereunder, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
  

 -26- 

 4.8 Inability to Determine Rates. If (a) Administrative Agent determines that for any reason
adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Borrowing, or (b) the Majority Term B Lenders determine that the Eurodollar Rate applicable
pursuant to Section 4.1(c) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Borrowing does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurodollar Borrowing, then, in the case
of (a), Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender and, in the case of (b), such Lenders will promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower. Thereafter, the obligation of Lenders to make or
maintain Eurodollar Borrowings, as the case may be, hereunder shall be suspended until Administrative Agent (in the case of (a)) revokes or Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Majority Term B Lenders (in the case of
(b)) revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any Request for Redesignation of Borrowing then submitted by it. If Borrower does not revoke such request, then Lenders shall convert or continue the
Term Loans, as proposed by Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by Borrower, but such Term Loans shall be made, converted, or continued as Reference Rate Borrowings instead of Eurodollar Borrowings. As of the date of
this Agreement, neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender has made the determination or is aware of the conditions referenced in the first sentence of this Section 4.8. 
 4.9 Reserves on Eurodollar Borrowings. Borrower shall pay to each Commercial Bank Lender, as long as such Commercial Bank Lender shall be
required under regulations of the FRB to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest or other costs
on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Borrowing equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Eurodollar Borrowing by such Commercial Bank Lender (as determined by such Commercial Bank Lender in good faith, which
determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Eurodollar Borrowing, provided Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written
notice (with a copy to Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Commercial Bank Lender. If a Commercial Bank Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest
shall be payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.  
 4.10 Certificates of Lenders. Any Lender claiming
reimbursement or compensation under this Article 4 shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to such Lender hereunder and such certificate
shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower in the absence of manifest error. 
 4.11 Substitution of Lenders. Upon the receipt by
Borrower from any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) of a claim for compensation under Section 4.4, Section 4.6, or Section 4.9 or, to the extent such problem affects less
than the Majority Term B Lenders, notice of a Lender’s inability to fund Eurodollar Borrowings under Section 4.5, Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, replace such Lender by causing such Lender
to assign its Term Loans (with the assignment fee to be paid by Borrower in such instance) pursuant to Section 11.6(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees procured by Borrower. Borrower shall (a) pay (or cause
to be paid) in full all principal, interest, fees, and other amounts owing to such Lender through the date of replacement (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.4, Section 4.6, Section 4.7,
Section 4.9, and Section 11.12), and (b) release such Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Any Lender being replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to
such Lender’s outstanding Term Loans. 
  

 -27- 

 4.12 Survival. The agreements and obligations of Borrower in Section 4.4,
Section 4.6, Section 4.7, and Section 4.9 shall survive for one (1) year following the payment and performance in full of all Obligations. 
 4.13 Manner and Treatment of Payments. The amount of each payment hereunder or on each Note shall be made without condition or deduction for any
counterclaim, defense, recoupment, or setoff to Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Lender in immediately available funds on the day of payment (which must be a Business Day). Any payment received after 1:00 p.m. on any
Business Day, shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. The amount of all payments received by Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender shall be promptly paid by Administrative Agent to the applicable Lender(s) in
immediately available funds (and any such payment not remitted on the same Business Day that it is deemed received by Administrative Agent shall thereafter be payable by Administrative Agent to the applicable Lender(s) together with interest at the
overnight Federal Funds Rate, as such rate is reasonably determined by Administrative Agent). Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or on each Note is due on a day that is not a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business
Day; provided that the extension shall be included in the computation of interest owing on the next following Interest Payment Date. Any payment of the principal of any Eurodollar Borrowing shall be made on a Business Day as applicable.

 4.14 Mandatory Prepayment. In the event that the aggregate Principal Debt of the Term Loans plus all other Senior Unsecured Home
Building Debt at any time exceeds the limitations specified in Section 3.6 (whether because of the outstanding amount of the Term Loans, or because of the other outstanding Senior Unsecured Home Building Debt), Borrower shall,
within three (3) Business Days, make a prepayment of Senior Unsecured Home Building Debt or cash collateralize L/C Obligations under and as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement in such amount as is necessary to cause Borrower to comply
with the limitations of Section 3.6. 
 ARTICLE 5: SECURITY. The Obligations shall be secured by the liens granted by Borrower
pursuant to the Security Agreement, until such liens are released pursuant to the terms thereof, and any other liens granted to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE 6: CONDITIONS.

bound or affected. 
 (d) Borrower, each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), and each Guarantor are not in default under any Law,
order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination, award, indenture, agreement, lease, or instrument described in Sections 7.2(c)(iv) or 7.2(c)(v), where such default could reasonably be expected to have a

Loan Documents. 
 (f) Each of the Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party, when executed and delivered, will constitute the legal,
valid, and binding obligations of Borrower, and the Guaranty, 

  

 -30- 

 
when executed and delivered, will constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligation of each Guarantor, each enforceable against such Person in accordance
with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws or equitable principles relating to the granting of specific performance or other equitable remedies as a matter of judicial discretion. 
 7.3 Compliance with Laws and Other Requirements. Borrower is in compliance with all Laws and other requirements applicable to its business and has
obtained all material authorizations, consents, approvals, orders, licenses, permits, and exemptions from, and has accomplished all filings, registrations, or qualifications with, any Governmental Authority that is necessary for the transaction of
its business, in each case except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and except for authorizations, consents, approvals, orders, licenses, permits, and exemptions relating to the
development, construction, and sale of real property that Borrower is in the process of obtaining or intends to obtain in the ordinary course of business. 
 7.4 Subsidiaries. 
 (a) Exhibit G correctly sets forth, as of the last day of the
most recent fiscal quarter of Borrower, the names and jurisdictions of incorporation or formation of all Subsidiaries, Homebuilding Joint Ventures, and other entities in which Borrower has a direct or indirect ownership interest (but excluding
publicly-traded Persons in which Borrower, directly or indirectly, holds less than a five percent (5%) ownership interest). Except as described in Exhibit G, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter of Borrower,
excluding publicly-traded Persons in which Borrower, directly or indirectly, holds less than a five percent (5%) ownership interest, Borrower does not own any capital stock or ownership interest in any Person other than its Subsidiaries and
Homebuilding Joint Ventures. All outstanding shares of capital stock or ownership interests, as the case may be, of each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) and Homebuilding Joint Venture that are owned by Borrower or any Subsidiary are
(i) owned of record and beneficially by Borrower and/or by one (1) or more Subsidiaries, free and clear of all material liens, claims, encumbrances, and rights of others (other than liens permitted under Section 8.11 of the
Revolving Credit Agreement or other liens that secure the Principal Debt on a pari passu basis with other Senior Unsecured Homebuilding Debt), and are (ii) duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable (except for capital calls or
contribution requirements in connection with ownership interests in Homebuilding Joint Ventures), and issued in compliance with all applicable state and federal securities and other Laws, except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower may update Exhibit G from time to time by sending written notice to Administrative Agent. 
 (b) Each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) is a corporation, partnership, or limited liability company duly incorporated or formed, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its respective
jurisdiction of incorporation or formation, is duly qualified to do business as, and is in good standing as, a foreign corporation, partnership, or limited liability company in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership
or leasing of its properties makes such qualification necessary (except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), and has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and
to own and lease its properties. 
 (c) Each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) is in compliance with all Laws and other
requirements applicable to its business and has obtained all authorizations, consents, approvals, orders, licenses, permits, and exemptions from, and has accomplished all filings, registrations, or qualifications with, any Governmental Authority
that is necessary for the transaction 

  

 -31- 

 
of its business, in each case except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and except for consents,
approvals, orders, licenses, permits, and exemptions relating to the development, construction, and sale of real property that each such Subsidiary is in the process of obtaining or intends to obtain in the ordinary course of business. 

7.5 Financial Statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Borrower has furnished to Lenders that are parties to this Agreement on the Closing
Date a copy of the Form 10-K of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the period ended December 31, 2005. The financial statements and the notes thereto included in such Form 10-K fairly presents in all material respects the consolidated
financial position of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at the dates specified therein and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, all in conformity with GAAP. 
 7.6 No Material Adverse Change. There has been no material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries (excluding the Excluded Subsidiaries), taken as a whole, from the financial condition of Borrower and its Subsidiaries (excluding the Excluded Subsidiaries), taken as a whole, since December 31, 2005, and Borrower and its
Subsidiaries (excluding the Excluded Subsidiaries), taken as a whole, do not have any material liability incurred outside of the ordinary course of business or, to the best knowledge of Borrower, material contingent liability, not reflected or
disclosed in the financial statements or notes thereto described in Section 7.5 (or, to the extent that financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 8.1, in the most recently delivered financial
statements), or otherwise disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing. 
 7.7 Tax Liability. Borrower and each Subsidiary (other than
an Excluded Subsidiary) have filed all material tax returns (federal, state, and local) required to be filed by them and have paid all material taxes shown thereon to be due and all property taxes due, including interest and penalties, if any. To
the best knowledge of Borrower, there does not exist any substantial likelihood that any Governmental Authority will successfully assert a tax deficiency against Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) that could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been adequately reserved against in the financial statements described in Section 7.5 (or, to the extent that financial statements have been delivered pursuant to
Section 8.1, in the most recently delivered financial statements). Borrower and each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) have established and are maintaining adequate reserves for tax liabilities, if any, sufficient to
comply with GAAP. 
 7.8 Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims, or disputes pending or, to the best knowledge
of Borrower, threatened against Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), or any property of Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), before any Governmental Authority which could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 7.9 Pension Plan. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary)
maintains or contributes to any Plan (other than (a) the 401(k) plans presently sponsored by Borrower as to which Borrower has complied with all applicable Laws (except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect), and (b) Plans of any Persons formed or acquired by Borrower or any Subsidiary as permitted under Section 8.13 or Section 8.16 of the Revolving Credit Agreement). 
  

 -32- 

 7.10 Regulations U and X; Investment Company Act. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary
(other than an Excluded Subsidiary) is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the meanings
of Regulation U of the FRB. No part of the Term Loans will be used to purchase or carry any margin stock (except for purchases of Borrower’s stock by, or on behalf of, Borrower otherwise permitted hereunder and that is subsequently
retired or retained by Borrower as treasury stock), or to extend credit to others for that purpose, or for any purpose that violates the provisions of Regulations U or X of the FRB. Neither Borrower nor any Subsidiary (other than
an Excluded Subsidiary) is or is required to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. 
 7.11 No Default. No
event has occurred and is continuing that is a Default or an Event of Default. 
 7.12 Environmental Compliance. In connection with
the acquisition of properties, Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than the Excluded Subsidiaries) generally conduct in the ordinary course of business a review of the environmental condition of such properties and any claims alleging potential
liability or responsibility for violation of Environmental Laws. In the course of the operation of its business, nothing has come to the attention of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Excluded Subsidiaries) causing it to conclude
that there are any violations of Environmental Laws or claims alleging potential liability or responsibility for violation of Environmental Laws that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 7.13 Solvent. Borrower and its Subsidiaries are, on a consolidated basis, Solvent. 
 7.14 Senior Debt. All obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to pay principal, interest, fees, and other amounts included
in the Obligations are senior debt under the terms of all Subordinated Debt of Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than the Excluded Subsidiaries). 
 ARTICLE 8: COVENANTS OF BORROWER. 
 As long as any Note remains unpaid or any other Obligations
remain outstanding: 
 8.1 Reporting Requirements. Borrower shall cause to be delivered to Administrative Agent, in form and detail
satisfactory to Administrative Agent (for prompt distribution by Administrative Agent to Lenders): 
 (a) as soon as practicable and in any
event within fifteen (15) days after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default becomes known to Borrower, a written statement setting forth the nature of the Default or Event of Default and the action that Borrower proposes to take
with respect thereto; 
 (b) as soon as available and in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each of the first three
(3) quarters of each calendar year, a Form 10-Q of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the quarter most recently ended; 
 (c) as soon as available and in any event within ninety (90) days after the end of each calendar year, a Form 10-K; and 
  

 -33- 

 (d) at the time of the delivery of the financial statements described in Sections 8.1(b)
and (c), a certificate of the chief financial officer, corporate controller, or the treasurer of Borrower (i) stating that to the knowledge of such officer no Default or Event of Default exists, or if such an event exists,
stating the nature thereof and the action that Borrower proposes to take with respect thereto, and (ii) demonstrating in reasonable detail that Borrower was in compliance during the applicable period with the covenants set forth in
Sections 8.15, 8.16, and 8.17, (including a reconciliation of the amounts used to calculate the covenants pursuant to Sections 8.15, 8.16, and 8.17 to such financial statements).

 Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) Administrative Agent and/or Arrangers will make available to the Lenders materials and/or
information provided by or on behalf of Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and
(b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). Borrower
hereby agrees that so long as Borrower is the issuer of any outstanding debt or equity securities that are registered or issued pursuant to a private offering or is actively contemplating issuing any such securities (w) all Borrower Materials
that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking
Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent, Arrangers, and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to Borrower or
its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws; (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor;”
and (z) Administrative Agent and Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.”
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be under no obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.” 
 8.2 Payment of
Taxes and Other Potential Liens. Borrower shall pay and discharge promptly, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to pay and discharge promptly, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental charges or levies imposed
upon it, upon its property or any part thereof, upon its income or profits or any part thereof, except that neither Borrower nor any such Subsidiary shall be required to pay or cause to be paid any tax, assessment, charge, or levy that is not
yet past due, or being actively contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, as long as Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established and maintains adequate reserves for the payment of the same and, by reason of nonpayment,
no material property of Borrower or any such Subsidiary is in danger of being lost or forfeited. 
 8.3 Preservation of Existence.
Except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, Borrower shall preserve and maintain, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to preserve and maintain, its corporate,
partnership, or limited liability company existence, as the case may be, and all licenses, rights, franchises, and privileges in the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation and all authorizations, consents, approvals, orders, licenses,
permits, or exemptions from, or registrations or qualifications with, any Governmental Authority that are necessary for the transaction of its business, and qualify and remain qualified, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary)
to qualify and remain qualified, to do business as a foreign corporation or partnership in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is necessary in view of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties; provided 

  

 -34- 

 
that Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or would result therefrom, dissolve, liquidate, or merge out of existence any
Subsidiary. 
 8.4 Maintenance of Properties. Except as permitted by Section 8.16 of the Revolving Credit Agreement,
Borrower shall maintain, preserve, and protect, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to maintain, preserve, and protect, all of its properties in good order and condition, subject to wear and tear in the ordinary course of
business and, in the case of unimproved properties, damage caused by the natural elements, and not permit any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to permit, any waste of its properties, except that neither (a) the failure to
maintain, preserve and protect a particular item of property that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, nor (b) the failure to maintain, preserve, and protect a particular item of property due to full compliance
with a final written order from a Governmental Authority, will constitute a violation of this Section 8.4. 
 8.5
Maintenance of Insurance. Borrower shall maintain, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to maintain: (a) insurance with responsible companies in such amounts and against such risks as is usually carried by
companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in the same general area in which Borrower or any such Subsidiary operates (provided that Borrower and its Subsidiaries may choose to establish a self-insurance program consistent
with self-insurance programs maintained by companies in similar businesses and owning similar properties); and (b) insurance required by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded
Subsidiary). 
 8.6 Books and Records. Borrower shall maintain, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to
maintain, full and complete books of account and other records reflecting the results of its operations in conformity with GAAP and all applicable requirements of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Borrower or any such Subsidiary or
any business or properties of Borrower or any such Subsidiary. 
 8.7 Inspection Rights. At any time during regular business hours,
and as often as reasonably requested, and so long as no Event of Default exists, upon reasonable notice, Borrower shall permit, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to permit, Administrative Agent or any employee, agent,
auditor, or representative thereof to inspect and make copies and abstracts from the records and books of account of, and to visit and inspect the properties of, Borrower and any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), and to discuss any
affairs, finances, and accounts of Borrower and any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) with any of their respective officers or directors. 
 8.8 Compliance with Laws and Other Requirements. 
 (a) Borrower shall comply, and cause each
Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to comply, with the requirements of all applicable Laws and orders of any Governmental Authority, noncompliance with which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) Borrower shall comply, and cause each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary and to the extent they are so engaged) to comply, with all
applicable Laws and other requirements relating to the development of each of its projects and the sale of units therein (where the failure to so comply could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), and shall obtain, and cause

  

 -35- 

 
each Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary and to the extent they are so engaged) to obtain, all necessary authorizations, consents, approvals,
licenses, and permits of any Governmental Authority with respect thereto (except where the failure to so obtain could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect). 
 8.9 Subsidiary Guaranties. Borrower shall cause each Material Subsidiary that does not provide a Guaranty hereunder on the Closing Date to provide
a Guaranty hereunder and such other documentation required by Administrative Agent, all in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days after the date on which such Subsidiary qualifies as a Material
Subsidiary; provided that if any Subsidiary that provides or has provided a Guaranty hereunder (i) is sold or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by Section 8.16 of the Revolving Credit Agreement to a Person
other than Borrower or one of Borrower’s Subsidiaries, or (ii) ceases, at any time, to qualify as a Material Subsidiary, then, upon the request of Borrower, Administrative Agent shall, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or
would result therefrom, release such Subsidiary from its Guaranty pursuant to a release in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, (a) as of the date of
acquisition, formation, or creation otherwise permitted hereunder of a new Subsidiary that is not a Material Subsidiary, the aggregate amount of assets (other than ownership interests in, and intercompany indebtedness of, other Subsidiaries) owned
by all Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries) that are not Material Subsidiaries exceeds five percent (5%) of Consolidated Tangible Net Worth, or (b) at any time after the Closing Date any Subsidiary shall execute a guaranty of
any Senior Unsecured Homebuilding Debt (other than the Term Loans or any Subordinated Debt), then Borrower shall cause such Subsidiary (whether or not it is a Material Subsidiary) to provide a Guaranty under this Section 8.9.

 8.10 Mergers. Borrower shall not merge or consolidate, or permit any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to merge or
consolidate, with or into any Person, except that (a) no merger or consolidation in connection with the sale of Standard Pacific Financing, L.P. or Standard Pacific Financing, Inc. will constitute a violation of this covenant (provided
that the corporate existence of Borrower, if a party to such merger or consolidation, is continued), (b) any Subsidiary may merge into Borrower (provided that the surviving entity is Borrower) or into any other Subsidiary
(provided that Borrower complies with Section 8.9), (c) no merger or consolidation in connection with an acquisition permitted under Section 8.17 of the Revolving Credit Agreement will constitute a
violation of this covenant (provided that the corporate existence of Borrower, if a party to such merger or consolidation, is continued), and (d) no merger or consolidation in connection with a disposition permitted under
Section 8.16 of the Revolving Credit Agreement will constitute a violation of this covenant (provided that the corporate existence of Borrower, if a party to such merger or consolidation, is continued). 
 8.11 Prepayment of Indebtedness. If a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or an acceleration of the indebtedness

 An example of the calculation of the Interest Coverage Ratio is as set forth
in Schedule 8.17. 
 8.18 Transactions with Affiliates. Borrower shall not, and shall not permit its Subsidiaries
to, enter into any transaction of any kind with any Affiliate of Borrower, whether or not in the ordinary course of business, other than on fair and reasonable terms substantially as favorable to Borrower or such Subsidiary as would be obtainable by
Borrower or such Subsidiary at the time in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person other than an Affiliate, provided that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to transactions between or among Borrower and any of its

 -40- 

 9.2 Remedies. If any Event of Default occurs, Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or
may, with the consent of, the Majority Term B Lenders: 
 (a) declare the Principal Debt, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all
other amounts payable under the Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of intention to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or other
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower; and 
 (b) exercise on behalf of itself and Lenders all rights and
remedies available to it and Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable law; 
 provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default specified in subsection (f) of Section 9.1, the Principal Debt and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable without further act of Administrative Agent or
any Lender and, provided further, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default specified in any subsection of Section 9.1 other than (a), (b), (f),
(n), or (o), and, provided that the unpaid principal amounts of all outstanding Loans under the Revolving Credit Agreement or the Term Loans under the Term A Credit Agreement have not been declared to be immediately due
and payable, Administrative Agent shall not take any actions described in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 9.2, (i) for thirty (30) days after such Event of Default occurred or
(ii) if such Event of Default is waived in accordance with the terms of the last paragraph of Section 11.1. 
 9.3
Rights Not Exclusive. The rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges, or remedies provided
by law or in equity, or under any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising. 
 ARTICLE 10: ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. 
 10.1 Appointment and Authorization. 
 Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action in its behalf under the provisions of this
Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative
Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist
against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or
other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent
contracting parties. 
  

 -41- 

 10.2 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or
misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care. 
 10.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. No
Agent-Related Persons shall: 
 (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct); or 
 (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other
Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value of or title to any
collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. 
 No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of
the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books, or records of Borrower or any of Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates. 
 10.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 
 (a) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile or
telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel
(including counsel to Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of each Lender as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by
it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent
of the Majority Term B Lenders (or such greater number of Persons as may be expressly required hereby in any instance), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders. 
 (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Article 6, each Lender that has executed this Agreement
and has authorized any release from escrow that may have been delivered with such execution shall be deemed to have consented to, approved, or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by Administrative Agent to
such 

  

 -42- 

 
Lender for consent, approval, acceptance, or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such
Lender. 
 10.5 Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any
Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a
Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Administrative Agent will promptly notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice.
Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Majority Term B Lenders in accordance with Article 9; provided, however, that unless and until
Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the
best interest of Lenders. 
 10.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any
representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person
to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the value of and title to any collateral, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based
on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such
investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to
be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other
condition or creditworthiness of Borrower which may come into the possession of any of Agent-Related Persons. 
 10.7 Indemnification.
Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon demand Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligations of Borrower to do so), pro
rata, from and against any and all liabilities covered by any indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such liabilities resulting solely from such
Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Majority Term B
Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including
Attorney Costs) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in
respect of rights or 

  

 -43- 

 
responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Administrative
Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so. The undertaking in this Section 10.7 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the
resignation of Administrative Agent. 
 10.8 Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Bank of America and its Affiliates may make
loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Borrower and its Subsidiaries and
Affiliates as though Bank of America were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America or its Affiliates may receive information regarding
Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such Subsidiary) and acknowledge that Bank of America or such Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such
information to it. With respect to its Term Loan, Bank of America shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent, and the terms
“Lender” and “Lenders” include Bank of America in its individual capacity. 
 10.9
Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may (and if it fails to hold the Notes required in Section 11.6(b), shall) resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Lenders. If
Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Majority Term B Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor agent for Lenders upon the written consent of Borrower if no Event of Default is outstanding (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint a successor agent from among Lenders upon the written consent of Borrower if no Event
of Default is outstanding (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any
retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative
Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative
Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Majority Term B Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for
above. 
 10.10 Tax Forms. 
 (a) (i) Each Lender that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative
Agent, prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, two (2) duly
signed completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower
pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to 

  

 -44- 

 
all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and certifying that such Lender is entitled
to a complete exemption from withholding taxes on all such payments) or such other evidence satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to a complete exemption from U.S. withholding tax, including any
exemption pursuant to Section 881(c) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (A) promptly submit to Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or
such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to Borrower and
Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
(B) promptly notify Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (C) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable
judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid or mitigate any requirement of applicable Laws that Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable
to such Foreign Lender. 
 (ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own account with
respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Lender under any of the Loan Documents (for example, in the case of a typical participation by such Lender), shall deliver to Administrative Agent on the date when such Foreign Lender ceases
to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Administrative Agent (in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (A) two
(2) duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such Lender acts for its own account that is
not subject to U.S. withholding tax, and (B) two (2) duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Lender chooses to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or
statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such Lender. 
 (iii) Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Foreign Lender under Section 4.4 (A) with
respect to any Taxes required to be deducted or withheld on the basis of the information, certificates or statements of exemption such Lender transmits with an IRS Form W-8IMY pursuant to this Section 10.10(a) or (B) if such
Lender shall have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.10(a); provided that if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirement of this Section 10.10(a) on the date such Lender
became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents (and if such Lender thereafter provides forms, certificates, and evidence establishing an exemption or reduction of withholding tax to
the extent such Lender remains legally able to do so), nothing in this Section 10.10(a) shall relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 4.4 in the event that, as a result of any
change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration, or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence
at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender or other Person for the account of which such Lender receives any sums 

  

 -45- 

 
payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a reduced rate. 
 (iv) Administrative Agent may, without reduction, withhold any Taxes required to be deducted and withheld from any payment under any of
the Loan Documents with respect to which the Borrower is not required to pay additional amounts under this Section 10.10(a). 
 (b) Upon the request of Administrative Agent, each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Administrative Agent two (2) duly signed completed
copies of IRS Form W-9. If such Lender fails to deliver such forms, then Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable back-up withholding tax imposed by the Code, without
reduction. Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any Lender under Section 4.4 with respect to any withholding under this Section 10.10(b). 
 (c) If any Governmental Authority asserts that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other
amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent
under this Section 10.10, and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of the Administrative Agent. The obligation of Lenders under this Section 10.10 shall survive the repayment of all other Obligations
hereunder, and the resignation of Administrative Agent. 
 10.11 Defaulting Lenders. If for any reason any Lender wrongfully (in
violation of this Agreement) fails or refuses to advance its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loans, or otherwise defaults on any of its material obligations under this Agreement, and fails to cure its default within five (5) Business Days of
receiving written notice from Administrative Agent of its failure to perform (such Lender being a “Defaulting Lender”), then in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to Administrative Agent and Lenders at
law or in equity, the Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in this Agreement will be suspended during the pendency of such Defaulting Lender’s uncured default, and (without limiting the foregoing) Administrative Agent may (or at the
direction of the Majority Term B Lenders, shall) withhold from such Defaulting Lender any interest payments, fees, principal payments, or other sums otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents until such default of such
Defaulting Lender has been cured. Each non-defaulting Lender will have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to acquire at par a proportionate share (based on the ratio of its Term Loans to the aggregate amount of the Term Loans
of all of the non-defaulting Lenders that elect to acquire a share of the Defaulting Lender’s Term Loans) of the Principal Debt of the Defaulting Lender’s Term Loans. The Defaulting Lender will pay and protect, defend, and indemnify
Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders against, and hold Administrative Agent, and each of the other Lenders harmless from, all claims, actions, proceedings, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including without limitation
Attorney Costs, and interest at the Reference Rate plus two percent (2%) per annum for the funds advanced by Administrative Agent or any Lenders on account of the Defaulting Lender) they may sustain or incur by reason of or in
consequence of the Defaulting Lender’s failure or refusal to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may set off against payments due to the Defaulting Lender for the claims of Administrative Agent and the other
Lenders against the Defaulting Lender. The exercise of these remedies will not reduce, diminish or liquidate the Defaulting Lender’s Term Loans (except to the extent that part or all of such Term Loans is acquired by the other Lenders as
specified above) or its obligations to share losses and reimbursement for costs, liabilities and expenses under this 

  

 -46- 

 
Agreement. This indemnification will survive the payment and satisfaction of all of Borrower’s obligations and liabilities to Lenders. The foregoing
provisions of this Section 10.11 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, and may not be enforced or relied upon by Borrower. 
 10.12 Actions. Administrative Agent shall have the right to commence, appear in, and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the rights or duties of Lenders hereunder or the payment of any funds,
and in connection therewith Administrative Agent may pay necessary expenses, employ counsel, and pay Attorney Costs. Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, within five (5) Business Days after demand, all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by Administrative Agent in connection therewith, including without limitation reasonable Attorney Costs, together with interest thereon from the date which is five (5) Business Days after demand until paid at a rate per annum equal to
the Reference Rate plus the Applicable Margin, if any, applicable to Reference Rate Borrowings plus two percent (2%). 
 10.13
Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent and Co-Agent. No Lender or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,”
“co-agent,” “managing agent,” “book manager,” “arranger,” “lead arranger,” or “co-arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability,
responsibility, or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender or other Person so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary
relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any other Lender or other Person so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 
 10.14 Approval of Lenders. 
 (a) All
communications from Administrative Agent to Lenders requesting Lenders’ determination, consent, approval, or disapproval (i) shall be given in the form of a written notice to each Lender, (ii) shall be accompanied by a description of
the matter or thing as to which such determination, approval, consent, or disapproval is requested, or shall advise each Lender where such matter or thing may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved,
(iii) shall include, if reasonably requested by a Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to Administrative Agent by Borrower in respect of the matter or
issue to be resolved, and (iv) shall include Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within fifteen (15) Business Days (or such lesser
period as may be required under the Loan Documents for Administrative Agent to respond) after receipt of the request therefor by Administrative Agent (in either event, the “Lender Reply Period”). 
 (b) Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it objects to the recommendation or determination of Administrative Agent
(together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) contained in a request described in clause (a) above that is marked “REQUEST FOR APPROVAL” within the Lender Reply Period, such Lender
shall be deemed to have approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination. 
 10.15 Proofs of Claim. In case of the
pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower, any Subsidiary, or any Guarantor, Administrative Agent (irrespective of
whether any Principal Debt shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and 

  

 -47- 

 
irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or
otherwise (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Term Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or
advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all
other amounts then due Lenders and Administrative Agent) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian,
receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall
consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts
then due to Administrative Agent. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 10.16 Collateral Matters. 
 (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its
behalf as Collateral Agent under the Security Agreement and the Collateral Agency Agreement and authorizes Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Collateral Agent by the terms of the
Security Agreement and the Collateral Agency Agreement, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Lenders irrevocably authorize Collateral Agent at its option and in its discretion to release any lien on any
property granted to or held by Collateral Agent under the Security Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof and the Collateral Agency Agreement. 
 (b) Each Lender authorizes Administrative Agent to execute and deliver the Collateral Agency Agreement on behalf of such Lender, and each Lender acknowledges that, upon such execution and delivery by Administrative Agent, such Lender shall
be bound by all of the provisions of the Collateral Agency Agreement (and the actions taken by Administrative Agent as its “Creditor Representative” thereunder and as defined therein) as if it were a signatory thereto. 

ARTICLE 11: MISCELLANEOUS. 
 11.1 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with respect to any departure by Borrower or any Subsidiary therefrom, shall be
effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Term B Lenders (or by Administrative Agent at the written request of the Majority Term B Lenders) and Borrower and acknowledged by Administrative Agent, and then any such
waiver of consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall do any of the following without the written consent of the
Persons required by such clause (and without the requirement for written consent by Majority Term B Lenders): 
 (a) increase
or extend the Term Loans of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender; 
  

 -48- 

 (b) extend, postpone, or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any
payment of all or any part of the Obligations due to Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; 
 (c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on any Term Loan, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other
Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; 
 (d) amend the definition of Majority Term B Lenders without the
written consent of all Lenders; 
 (e) amend this Section 11.1 or any provision herein providing for consent or other
action by all Lenders without the written consent of all Lenders; 
 (f) discharge any Guarantor without the written consent of all Lenders
(except as provided in Section 8.9 and where the consent of the Majority Term B Lenders only is specifically provided for); 
 (g) amend Section 3.8 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender; 
 (h) release all or substantially all of the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) without the written consent of all Lenders; 
 and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders, as
applicable, required above, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (ii) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by
the parties thereto. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein: (a) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or
disapprove any amendment, waiver, or consent hereunder, except that the Term Loan of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender; and (b) if the provisions of the Revolving Credit Agreement and Term A Credit
Agreement that correspond to Sections 3.5, 3.6, any Section of Article 7, any Section of Article 8, or Sections 9.1(c) through (o) of this
Agreement (or any defined term used in any such Section or Article) are amended, modified, restated, replaced, or waived, then Borrower, Administrative Agent, and each Lender agree that such Sections or
Articles, as applicable, in this Agreement shall be amended, modified, restated, replaced, or waived, as applicable, to conform to such provisions in the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term A Credit Agreement; provided that
with respect to any waiver of the provisions of the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term A Credit Agreement that correspond to Sections 9.1(c) through (o), the appropriate lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement
and the Term A Credit Agreement have granted such waiver within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such Event of Default. 
  

 -49- 

 11.2 Costs, Expenses, and Taxes. Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent
for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation, and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent, or other modification of the provisions
hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney Costs, and (b) to pay or
reimburse Administrative Agent and each Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all
such costs and expenses incurred during any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), including all Attorney Costs. The foregoing
costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance, and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent. All amounts due under this
Section 11.2 shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor. Any amount payable to Administrative Agent and any Lender under this Section 11.2 shall, from the date of demand for
payment, and any other amount payable to Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents which is not paid when due or within any applicable grace period shall, thereafter, bear interest at the rate in effect under each Note with respect to Reference
Rate Borrowings. The agreements in this Section 11.2 shall survive the repayment of all Obligations. 
 11.3 No Waiver;
Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder or provided by Law. 
 11.4 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that Borrower makes a payment to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or Administrative Agent or any Lender
exercises their respective right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement
entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other party, in connection with any Debtor Relief Laws, then (a) to the extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand
its Pro Rata Share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

 11.5 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or
transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement except in accordance with Section 11.6. 
 11.6
Assignments, Participations, etc. 
 (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that Borrower may 

  

 -50- 

 
not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of
Section 11.6(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 11.6(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be
null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in
Section 11.6(d), and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one (1) or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Term Loans at the time owing to it); provided that: (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Term Loans at the time owing to it or in the
case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Term Loans subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment
is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, and integral multiples thereof, unless each of Administrative
Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Term Loans assigned; (iii) any assignment of Term Loans must be approved by Administrative Agent unless the Person that is the proposed
assignee is itself a Lender, or a Lender Affiliate, each such consent not be to unreasonably withheld or delayed; (iv) after giving effect to such assignment, unless the assigning Lender is assigning all of its rights and Term Loans hereunder,
the assigning Lender shall retain Term Loans with a Principal Debt of at least $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount agreed to by Borrower and Administrative Agent); provided that, for purposes of this clause (iv) only,
“Lender” shall include any group of Lenders that are administered or managed by (x) a Lender, (y) an Affiliate of a Lender or (z) any Person (or Affiliate thereof) that administers or manages a Lender; and
(v) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount, if any, required as set forth in Schedule 11.6.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.6(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to
this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, 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 Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be
a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.4, 4.6, 4.7, 11.2, and 11.12 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon
request, Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver Note(s) to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.6(b) shall
be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 11.6(d). 
  

 -51- 

 (c) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at
Administrative Agent’s Lending Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders, and the Term Loans of, and Principal Debt owing to, each Lender pursuant to
the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms
hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice. 
 (d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any
Person (other than a natural person or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Term Loans and/or the Principal Debt owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or
instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement;
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver, or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 11.1
that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 11.6(e), Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.4, 4.6, 4.7, and 11.7 to the same extent as
if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.8 as though it
were a Lender. 
 (e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.4 or 4.6
than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent. A
Participant that would be a foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.4 unless Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the
benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 10.10 as though it were a Lender. 
 (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or
assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank;
provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 11.7 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Lenders provided by Law, if an Event of Default exists or the Term Loans have been
accelerated, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrower, any such notice being waived by Borrower 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 excluding Borrower’s customer or regulatory trust accounts) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any
and all Obligations owing to Lenders, now or hereafter 

  

 -52- 

 
existing, irrespective of whether or not Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although
such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall
not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
 11.8 Automatic Debits. With respect to any principal or interest payment,
commitment fee or usage fee due and payable to Administrative Agent or Lenders under the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to debit any deposit account of Borrower with Bank of America and hereby agrees to
irrevocably direct in writing the holder of any deposit account to debit any deposit account of Borrower (excluding Borrower’s customer or regulatory trust accounts), in amounts specified by Administrative Agent from time to time such that the
aggregate amount debited from all such deposit accounts does not exceed such payment, fee, other cost or expense. Administrative Agent shall use its best efforts to give Borrower advance notice of each debit, but failure of Administrative Agent to
give such notice shall not invalidate its authorization hereunder. If there are insufficient funds in such deposit accounts to cover the amount of the payment, fee, other cost or expense then due, such debits will be reversed (in whole or in part,
in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) and such amount not debited shall be deemed to be unpaid. No such debit under this Section 11.8 shall be deemed a set-off. 
 11.9 Notification of Addresses, Lending Offices, Etc. Each Lender shall notify Administrative Agent in writing of any changes in the address to
which notices to such Lender should be directed, of addresses of any Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such other administrative information as Administrative Agent shall reasonably
request. 
 11.10 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties of Borrower contained herein or in
any certificate or other writing delivered by or on behalf of Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document will survive the making and repayment of the Term Loans and the execution and delivery of each Note, and have been or will be relied upon by each
Lender, notwithstanding any investigation made by such Lender or on its behalf. 
 11.11 Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein
or in each Note: 
 (a) General. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be in writing (including by facsimile transmission). All such written notices shall be mailed certified or registered mail, faxed, or delivered to the applicable address, facsimile number, or (subject to
Section 11.11(c)) electronic mail address, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, to the address, facsimile number,
electronic mail address, or telephone number specified for such Person on the signature pages to this Agreement or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address, or telephone number as shall be designated by such party in a notice
to the other parties. 
 (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or
furnished by electronic communication (including e mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article
3 if such Lender has notified Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic 

  

 -53- 

 
communication. Administrative Agent or Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic
communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as between Borrower and Administrative Agent, electronic mail, the
Internet, intranet websites, and facsimile may be used only to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information as provided in Section 8.1, and to distribute Loan Documents for execution by the
parties thereto, and may not be used for any other purpose. 
 (c) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents
may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on Borrower, Administrative
Agent, and the Lenders. Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit
the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature. 
 (d) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent
and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower even if such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of
notice specified herein. Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower. All
telephonic notices to and other communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
 11.12 Indemnity by Borrower. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each
Agent-Related Person, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, trustees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against
any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter, or instrument delivered in
connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Term Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (c) any actual or prospective claim, litigation,
investigation, or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort, or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation, or
proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE
NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses, or disbursements have (x) resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, or (y) arose out of the dispute among any one or more Lenders that does not involve Borrower or any Subsidiary as a party to
such dispute. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by Persons other than its Affiliates, 

  

 -54- 

 
directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents, and attorneys-in-fact of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar
information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement, nor shall any Indemnitee have any liability for any indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in
connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date). All amounts due under this Section 11.12 shall be payable within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this
Section 11.12 shall survive the resignation of Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction, or discharge of all the other Obligations. 
 11.13 Integration and Severability. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the
parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions
of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document
was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan
Document is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the legality, validity, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision
in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 11.14
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same
instrument. Facsimile transmission of any signed original document and/or retransmission of any signed facsimile transmission will be deemed the same as delivery of an original. At the request of any party, the parties will confirm facsimile
transmission by signing a duplicate original document. 
 11.15 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into
for the sole protection and legal benefit of Borrower, Lenders, Administrative Agent and Agent-Related Persons, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or
indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 11.16 Section Headings.
Section headings in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and are not part of this Agreement for any other purpose. 
 11.17 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents. 
 11.18 GOVERNING LAW. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF. 
 11.19 Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE
