    accounts and contract rights.

   

  (b)         In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including;” the words “to” and “until”
    each mean “to but excluding;” and the word “through” means “to and including.”

   

  (c)         Section headings herein and in the other Loan Documents are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

   

  

  (d)         Any reference herein to a merger, amalgamation, consolidation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited
    liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability company (or the unwinding of such a division or allocation), as if it were a merger, amalgamation, consolidation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar
    term, as applicable, to, of or with a separate Person. Any division of a limited liability company shall constitute a separate Person hereunder (and each division of any limited liability company that is a Subsidiary, joint venture or any other like
    term shall also constitute such a Person or entity).

   

  1.03        Accounting Terms.

   

  

  (a)        Generally.  All accounting terms not specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other
    financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with, GAAP applied on a consistent basis, as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the Audited
    Financial Statements, except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant (including the computation of any financial covenant) contained herein, Indebtedness of
    the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be carried at 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof, and the effects of FASB ASC 825 and FASB ASC 470-20 on financial liabilities shall be disregarded.

   

  
    

    22

    
      

    

  

  (b)         Changes in GAAP.  If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower or the
    Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval
    of the Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (A) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (B) the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the
    Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in
    GAAP. Without limiting the foregoing, leases shall continue to be classified and accounted for on a basis consistent with that reflected in the Audited Financial Statements for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any change in GAAP relating
    thereto, unless the parties hereto shall enter into a mutually acceptable amendment addressing such changes, as provided for above.

   

  1.04      Rounding.  Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement shall be
    calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a
    rounding-up if there is no nearest number).

   

  1.05       Times of Day.  Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be references to
    Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable).

   

  1.06       Interest Rates.  The Administrative Agent does not warrant, nor accept responsibility, nor shall the
    Administrative Agent have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any rate that is an alternative or replacement for or successor to
    any of such rate (including, without limitation, any LIBOR Successor Rate) or the effect of any of the foregoing, or of any LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes.

   

  ARTICLE II  BORROWINGS

   

  2.01       Loans.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make loans in
    the aggregate principal amount of $200,000,000 (each such loan, a “Loan”) to the Borrower on the Closing Date.  Any principal amount of the Loan repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.  Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as
    further provided herein.

   

  2.02       Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

   

  (a)        Each conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which
    may be given by (i) telephone or (ii) a Loan Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed immediately by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Loan Notice.  Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not
    later than 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of any conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or of any conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans. Each conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar
    Rate Loans shall be, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, in connection with any conversion or continuation of a Loan, if less, the entire
    principal thereof then outstanding).  Each conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, in connection with any
    conversion or continuation of a Loan, if less, the entire principal thereof then outstanding).  Each Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (A)  whether the Borrower is requesting a conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, or
    a continuation of Loans, as the case may be, (B) the requested date of the conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the principal amount of Loans to be converted or continued, (D) the Type of Loans to which
    existing Loans are to be converted, and (E) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Loan Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a
    conversion or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be converted to Base Rate Loans.  Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable
    Eurodollar Rate Loans.  If the Borrower requests a conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month.

   

  
    

    23

    
      

    

  

  (b)        Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Loans, and if no timely notice of
    a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in the preceding clause.  In the case of a Borrowing, each Lender shall
    make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice.  Upon satisfaction of the
    applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.01, the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on
    the books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower.

   

  (c)         Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  During the existence of
    a Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Lenders.

   

  (d)        The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such
    interest rate.

   

  (e)         After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than five Interest
    Periods in effect with respect to Loans.

   

  2.03       [Reserved].

   

  2.04       [Reserved].

   

  2.05     Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to delivery to the
    Administrative Agent of a Notice of Loan Prepayment, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty subject to Section 3.05; provided that, unless otherwise agreed by the
    Administrative Agent (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any
    prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000
    in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding.  Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are to be
    prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment.  If such notice is given by the
    Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.  Any prepayment of principal shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid,
    together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.  Subject to Section 2.17, each such prepayment shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans until paid in full and second to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in direct order of
    Interest Period maturities until paid in full, and shall be applied to the applicable Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.

  2.06       [Reserved].

   

  2.07       Repayment of Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal
    amount of Loans outstanding on such date.

   

  2.08       Interest.

   

  (a)         Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate
    per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal
    to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

   

  (b)         (i)          If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (as determined after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
    otherwise, such amount that has not been paid when due shall thereafter, upon notice from the Administrative Agent, bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by
    Applicable Law.

   

  (ii)          If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) is not paid when due (as determined after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity,
    by acceleration or otherwise, such amount that has not been paid when due shall thereafter, upon notice from the Administrative Agent, bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent
    permitted by Applicable Law.

   

  (iii)       Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists (other than as set forth in clauses (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above), the Borrower
    shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations that may accrue at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

   

  (iv)        Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

   

  (c)         Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein.  Interest hereunder shall be
    due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

   

  2.09       [Reserved].

   

  
    

    25

    
      

    

  

  2.10      Computation of Interest and Fees.  All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans
    determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed.  All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual
    days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year).  Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion
    thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day.  Each determination by the
    Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Lender shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower evidence, which may be in the form of a “screen
    shot” showing the quotations used by the Lender in determining the rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.08.

   

  2.11        Evidence of Debt.

   

  (a)        The Borrowings made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender in the ordinary course of business.  The Administrative Agent shall
    maintain the Register in accordance with Section 10.06(c).  The accounts or records maintained by each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Borrowings made by the Lenders to the 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 the 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 Register, the Register shall control in the absence of manifest error.  Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such
    Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records.  Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of
    its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

   

  (b)        In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and
    records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

   

  2.12        Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

   

  (a)        General.  All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.  Except as
    otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in
    immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein.  The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds
    as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office.  Any payment received by the Administrative Agent received after such time but before 4:00 p.m. on such day shall be deemed a payment on such date for the purposes of Section 8.01, but for
    all other purposes shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment
    shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

   

  (b)          (i)          [Reserved].

   

  
    

    26

    
      

    

  

  (ii)        Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on
    which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith
    and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the
    Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to
    the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

   

  A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

   

  (c)          [Reserved].

   

  (d)          [Reserved].

   

  (e)          Funding Source.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any
    Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

   

  2.13       Sharing of Payments by Lenders.  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or
    otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon
    greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other
    Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and
    other amounts owing them, provided that:

   

  (i)       if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or
    subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

   

  (ii)       the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms
    of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or
    participant, other than an assignment to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

   

  The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may
    exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

  2.16       [Reserved].

   

  2.17       Defaulting Lenders.

   

  (a)          Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a
    Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

   

  (i)        Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be
    restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 10.01.

   

  (ii)         Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting
    Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be
    determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second,
    as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the
    Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future
    funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender
    against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts
    owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such
    Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro
    rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or
    payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

   

  (b)          Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the
    parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such
    other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no
    adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed
    by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

  ARTICLE III  TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

   

  3.01       Taxes.

   

  (a)          Defined Terms.  For purposes of this Section 3.01, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

   

  (b)         Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any
    Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law.  If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the
    applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified
    Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the
    applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

   

  (c)          Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower.  The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative
    Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

   

  (d)       Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to
    such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of  the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure
    to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection
    with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such
    payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under
    any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (d).

   

  (e)          Indemnification by Borrower.  The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified
    Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
    thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the
    Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

   

  
    

    29

    
      

    

  

  (f)          Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, the Borrower shall
    deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Applicable Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment
    reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

   

  (g)          Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

   

  (i)          Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and
    the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such
    payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or
    reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding
    anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.01(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be
    required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

   

  (ii)         Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person:

   

  (A)        any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this
    Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed  copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

   

  (B)       any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be
    requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the
    following is applicable:

   

  (I)          in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any
    Loan Document, executed  copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other
    applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

   

  
    

    30

    
      

    

  

  (II)          executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

   

  (III)         in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the
    form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a
    “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed  copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable); or

   

  (IV)        to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed  copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as
    applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign
    Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4
    on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

   

  (C)       any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be
    requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed  copies of any
    other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower
    or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

   

  (D)        if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the
    applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such
    time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by
    the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to
    determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

   

  (iii)        Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any
    respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

   

  
    

    31

    
      

    

  

  (h)          Treatment of Certain Refunds.  Unless required by Applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a
    Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender, as the case may be.  If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has
    received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but
    only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such
    Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the
    Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the
    contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such
    Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. 
    This subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person.

   

  (i)          Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the
    replacement of, a Lender the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

   

  3.02       Illegality.  If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental
    Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the
    Eurodollar Rate (or any alternative rate of interest implemented in accordance with Section 3.03(b)), or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of,
    Dollars in the London interbank market, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower (through the Administrative Agent), (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar
    Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate
    on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the
    Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if
    applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the
    Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to
    maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the
    Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal  for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based
    upon the Eurodollar Rate.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

   

  
    

    32

    
      

    

  

  3.03       Inability to Determine Rates.

   

  (a)         If in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (i) the Administrative Agent determines that (A) Dollar deposits are not being
    offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (B) (x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest
    Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan and (y) the circumstances described in Section 3.03(c)(i) do not apply (in each case with respect to this clause (i), “Impacted

      Loans”), or (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason  the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost
    to such Lenders of funding such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.  Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the
    extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate
    component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in clause (ii) of Section 3.03(a), until the Administrative
    Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected
    Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

   

  (b)         Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (i) of Section 3.03(a), the Administrative Agent, in consultation
    with the Borrower, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with
    respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (i) of Section 3.03(a), (2) the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
    Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (3) any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans
    whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of
    the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Borrower written notice thereof; provided that in the event that such alternative rate of interest, determined in accordance with this clause (b), shall not apply due to the
    occurrence of (1), (2) or (3) above, the Base Rate shall apply until such other alternative rate of interest for the Impacted Loans is implemented in accordance with this Section 3.03.

   

  (c)         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest
    error), or the Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined that:

   

  
    

    33

    
      

    

  

  (i)          adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not
    available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

   

  (ii)         the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a
    specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans, provided that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is
    satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that will continue to provide LIBOR after such specific date (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or

   

  (iii)       syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to
    incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR;

   

  then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement solely
    for the purpose of replacing LIBOR in accordance with this Section 3.03 with (x) one or more SOFR-Based Rates or (y) another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention
    for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention
    for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in
    its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (the “Adjustment;” and any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the
    Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders (A)
    in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (x), object to the Adjustment; or (B) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (y), object to such amendment; provided
    that for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of clause (A), the Required Lenders shall not be entitled to object to any SOFR-Based Rate contained in any such amendment.  Such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with
    market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative
    Agent.

   

  If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent
    will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.  Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) the
    Eurodollar Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of
    the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein.

   

  Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than 0.75% for purposes of this Agreement.

   

  
    

    34

    
      

    

  

  In connection with the implementation of a LIBOR Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding
    anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that,

      with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes to the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

   

  3.04        Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.

   

  (a)          Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:

   

  (i)        impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
    account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e));

   

  (ii)         subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes
    and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

   

  (iii)        impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender;

   

  and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase
    the cost to such Lender, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender the Borrower will pay to such Lender, as the case may be,
    such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

   

  (b)         Capital Requirements.  If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding
    capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the
    Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with
    respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

   

  

  
    (c)         Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in subsection (a) or (b)
      of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

  

   

  
    

    35

    
      

    

  

  (d)          Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver
    of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than
    nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to
    such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

   

  (e)          Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.  The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets
    consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan
    by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have
    received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender.  If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due
    and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

   

  3.05      Compensation for Losses.  Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to
    time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

   

  (a)          any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary,
    mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

   

  (b)          any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or
    in the amount notified by the Borrower; or

   

  (c)          any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.13;

   

  including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such
    funds were obtained.  The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

   

  For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such
    Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

   

  
    

    36

    
      

    

  

  3.06       Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

   

  (a)         Designation of a Different Lending Office.  Each Lender may make any Borrowing to the Borrower through any Lending Office, provided that the exercise of this option shall
    not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Borrowing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts
    to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then at the request of the Borrower such Lender shall, as applicable, use
    reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such
    designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii)
    in each case, would not subject such Lender, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender, as the case may be.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses
    incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

   

  (b)        Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any
    Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.06(a), the
    Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

   

  3.07     Survival.  All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the
    Aggregate Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

    behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or
    thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party
    beneficiary of any of such provisions.  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the 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 as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

   

  9.02       Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and
    powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires,
    include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for
    and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

  9.03       Exculpatory Provisions.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those
    expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

   

  (a)          shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

   

  (b)        shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by
    the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents),
    provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Applicable Law,
    including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief
    Law;

   

  (c)         shall not have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, to any Lender any
      credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their Affiliates, that is communicated to,
    obtained by or in the possession of, the Administrative Agent or any of their Related Parties in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to
    be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein;

   

  (d)         shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
    Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful
    misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the
    Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender; and

   

  (e)         shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or
    any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or
    conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction
    of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

  9.04       Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not
    incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be
    genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not
    incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is
    satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower),
    independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

   

  9.05      Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights
    and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
    powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
    activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to
    the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

   

  9.06       Resignation of Administrative Agent.

   

  (a)          The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have
    the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by
    the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”),

    then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above, provided that in no event shall any such successor
    Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

   

  (b)        If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable
    Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have
    accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal
    Effective Date.

   

  
    

    53

    
      

    

  

  (c)         With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
    obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or
    through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as
    Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 3.01(i) and other than
    any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be
    discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section).  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the
    same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this
    Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i)
    while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including in
    respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

   

  9.07       Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent and the Other Lenders.  Each Lender and expressly acknowledges that
    the Administrative Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to, and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party of any
    Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in their (or their Related
    Parties’) possession. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it
    has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of, appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, and all
    applicable bank or other regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently
    and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and
    decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder, 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 the Loan Parties. Each Lender represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility and (ii) it
    is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this Agreement as a Lender for the purpose of making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and providing other facilities set forth herein as may
    be applicable to such Lender, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument, and each Lender agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing. Each Lender represents and warrants that
    it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision
    to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities.

    ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS.  NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
    NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM.  In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties
    (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s, any
    Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials or notices through the Platform, any other electronic platform or electronic messaging service, or through the Internet.

    designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and Applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities
    laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of
    United States Federal or state securities laws.

   

  (e)         Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic notices and Loan
    Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower, to the extent that, in good faith, such party reasonably believes such notice to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated the proper person, even if (i) 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, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof.  The Borrower
    shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender, and each of their respective Affiliates, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors, from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person,
    in good faith, on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower.  All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto
    hereby consents to such recording.

   

  10.03     No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement.  No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to
    exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document 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.  The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative
    and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

   

  
    

    58

    
      

    

  

  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan
    Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for
    the benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as
    Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.13), or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or
    appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent
    hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clause (c) of the
    preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

  (a)         Costs and Expenses.  The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges
    and disbursements of outside counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of
    the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all out of pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the fees, charges and
    disbursements of any outside counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
    including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

    directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees,
    charges and disbursements of any outside counsel for any Indemnitee), reasonably incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrower or any other Loan Party) arising out of, in connection with, or as a
    result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the
    consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its related Indemnitees only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including in
    respect of any matters addressed in Section 3.01), (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the

    whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
    Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
    misconduct of such Indemnitee, or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or
    such Subsidiary has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  Without limiting the provisions of Section 3.01, this Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with
    respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

   

  
    

    59

    
      

    

  

  (c)         Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by
    it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro
    rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s share of the Total Outstandings at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a
    claim asserted by such Lender), such payment to be made severally among them based on such Lenders’ Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought), provided that
    the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of
    any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity.

   

  (d)       Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall
    have, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan
    Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.  In addition, and without limitation of the indemnity provided in this Section, the Lenders agree
    not to assert any claim against the Borrower on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other
    Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

   

  (e)         Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after written demand therefor and such demand shall set forth in reasonable detail
    the basis for and calculation of any amounts claimed as owing by the Borrower.

   

  (f)       Survival.  The agreements in this Section and the indemnity provisions of Section 10.02(e) shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any
    Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

   

   10.05        Payments Set Aside.  To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any
    Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
    (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, 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 setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender
    severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the 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.  The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the
    termination of this Agreement.

      (a)         Successors and Assigns Generally.  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 the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights
        or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of clause (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of clause (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of
        pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of clause (e) of this Section (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 clause (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly
        contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

    

  

   

  

  (b)         Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion
    of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

   

  (i)          Minimum Amounts.

   

  (A)        in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to
    related Approved Funds (determined after giving effect to such assignments) that equal at least the amount specified in clause (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or
    an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

   

  (B)        in any case not described in clause (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding
    thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is
    delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000  unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred
    and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

   

  (ii)         Proportionate Amounts.  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 Loans or the Commitment assigned;

   

  
    

    61

    
      

    

  

  (iii)       Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

   

  (A)        the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at
    the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written
    notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

   

  (B)        the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments to a Person that is not a Lender, an
    Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.

   

  (iv)      Assignment and Assumption.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a
    processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.  The assignee, if it
    is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

   

  (v)         No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to any Defaulting
    Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust
    for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of one or more natural Persons).

   

  (vi)      Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective
    unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate
    (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans
    previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the
    Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that
    any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this clause, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender
    for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

   

  
    

    62

    
      

    

  

  Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the 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 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such
    assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having
    been a Defaulting Lender.  Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause
    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 clause (d) of this Section.

   

  (c)        Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for Tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative
    Agent’s Office  a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and
    stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
    Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any
    reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

   

  (d)        Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural
    Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of one or more natural Persons, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the 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 Commitment and/or the Loans 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) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender
    in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.04(c) without regard to the existence of any participation.

   

  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 10.01 that affects such Participant.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender
    and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(g) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same
    extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.06 and 10.13 as if
    it were an assignee under clause (b) of this Section and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01 or 3.04, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the
    applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender that
    sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.06 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each
    Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a
    participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest
    in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any
    Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that
    such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such
    Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent
    (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

   

  
    

    63

    
      

    

  

  (e)         Certain Pledges.  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 Note, 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.

   

  10.07    Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders agrees to
    maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates, its auditors and its and its Affiliates’ partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, administrators,
    managers, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and will be instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the
    extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent
    required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating
    to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any
    prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by
    reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (ii) the
    CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the application, issuance, publishing and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with the consent of the
    Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential
    basis from a source other than the Borrower and such source is not known by the Person receiving such Information to be in violation of any obligation of confidentiality.  In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence
    of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this
    Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments.

   

  
    

    64

    
      

    

  

  For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other
    than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any
    Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with
    its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

   

  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it
    has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities laws.

   

  10.08     Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, and each of their
    respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency)
    at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing
    under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such
    obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the
    event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and,
    pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative
    Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  The rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other
    rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have.  Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided
    that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

   

  10.09     Interest Rate Limitation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the
    interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”).  If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an
    amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the
    Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary
    prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

   

  
    

    65

    
      

    

  

  10.10     Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different
    parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect
    to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter
    hereof.  Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together,
    bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging means (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually
    executed counterpart of this Agreement.

   

  10.11     Survival of Representations and Warranties.  All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any
    other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.  Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the
    Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at
    the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

   

  10.12     Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid
    or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to
    replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.  The invalidity of a provision in a particular
    jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.  Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this
    Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

   

  10.13    Replacement of Lenders.  If the Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section

      3.06, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse
    (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.04) and
    obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

   

  (a)          the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.06(b);

   

  (b)         such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder
    and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

   

  
    

    66

    
      

    

  

  (c)         in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will
    result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

   

  (d)          such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Laws; and

   

  (e)          in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

   

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

   

  Each party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required pursuant to this Section 10.13 may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative
    Agent and the assignee and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to an be bound by the terms thereof; provided that,
    following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender; provided, further
    that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

   

  Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 9.06.

   

  10.14     Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.

   

  (a)        GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF

    MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.  NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN
    DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

    LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (B) OF THIS SECTION.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
    EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

   

  (d)         SERVICE OF PROCESS.  EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02.  NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT
    THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

   

  10.15     Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
    APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON
    CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE
    THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

   

  10.16     No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated
    hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the services regarding this
    Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has
    consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated
    hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Administrative Agent and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as
    an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to the 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; and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range
    of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or
    fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

    “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation Assignment and Assumptions, amendments or other modifications,
    Loan Notices, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in

  10.18       USA PATRIOT Act.  Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative
    Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the 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 the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in
    accordance with the Act.  The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender reasonably requests in order to comply

  10.19       Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.  Notwithstanding anything to the
    contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to

  (a)         the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any Lender that is an
    Affected Financial Institution; and

   

  (b)          the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

   

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

   

  (ii)         a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a
    bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan
    Document; or

   

  
    

    69

    
      

    

  

  (iii)        the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

   

  10.20     Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.  To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through
    a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to  the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated
    thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to
    be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

   

  (a)          In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such
    Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered
    Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws
    of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might
    otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if
    the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a
    Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

   

  (b)          As used in this Section 10.20, the following terms have the following meanings:

   

  “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

   

  “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered
    bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

   

  “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

   

  “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

This Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) is
entered into for employment as Chief Executive Officer beginning on April 6, 2020 (the “Effective Date”) between
Coherent, Inc. (the “Company”) and Andreas W. Mattes (“Executive”) (hereinafter collectively referred
to as the “Parties”).

 

1.            Duties
and Scope of Employment. Executive will initially serve as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company reporting
to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), and will perform the duties, consistent with this position,
as the Board reasonably assigns. Effective as of the Effective Date, Executive will be appointed to serve as a member of the Board
and during the period in which Executive is serving as Chief Executive Officer, the Board shall nominate Executive to continue
such service on the Board.

 

2.            Employment
Term. Subject to the provisions of Section 5, beginning on the Effective Date and, continuing until May 31, 2023
(“Initial Term”), Executive will be employed with the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that beginning on May 31, 2022 and on each 1-year anniversary thereafter
(each an “Extension Date”), the Employment Term will be automatically extended for an additional one-year period, unless
the Company or Executive provides the other party written notice at least 30 calendar days before the Extension Date that the Employment
Term will not be extended.

 

3.            Compensation.

 

(a)            Signing
Bonus. Executive will receive a signing bonus of $500,000, payable in the first pay period after his start date. If Executive’s
employment with the Company ends within the first year of employment due to Executive’s resignation without Good Reason or
termination by the Company for Cause, Executive will be required to return the signing bonus.

 

(b)            Base
Salary. The Company will pay Executive an annual salary of $850,000 as compensation for services (the “Base Salary”).
The Base Salary will be paid according to the Company’s normal payroll practices and subject to the usual and required withholdings.
Executive’s salary may be reviewed and adjusted annually pursuant to the regular executive compensation practices of the
Board and its committees.

 

(c)            Annual
Bonus. Commencing with the 2020 fiscal year, Executive will have a target annual cash incentive opportunity (the “Target
Bonus”) equal to 120% of Executive’s annual base salary, based upon achievement of performance goals established by
the Board or the Compensation and HR Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) after consultation with Executive. For
the 2020 fiscal year, the Target Bonus equal to 100% of Executive’s full annual base salary will be based on Company financial
goals consistent with the goals of other executive officers under the Company’s Variable Compensation Plan (“VCP”),
with a maximum award of 200% of Executive’s annual base salary and the Target Bonus equal to 20% of Executive’s annual
base salary will be based on individual goals established by the Board or Committee with a maximum award of 20% of Executive’s
annual base salary. The annual bonus will be subject to the VCP. For future years, the Committee may modify the structure and performance
objectives used for such determinations.

 

    1

     

    

 

(d)            Equity
Awards. As soon as practicable following, and in no event more than 30 days after, the Effective Date, Executive will be granted
an equity award with an aggregate value of $5,200,000 covering the Company’s common stock (the “Equity Awards”),
which will be governed by the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Equity Incentive
Plan”) and the publicly-filed and currently available forms of award agreement thereunder (collectively, including the 2011
Equity Incentive Plan, the “Equity Documents”) to be allocated as follows:

 

(i)            1/3
to time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”); and

 

(ii)            2/3
to performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”).

 

The number of shares of the Company’s
common stock subject to Executive’s RSUs will be calculated by dividing (1) the value of the proposed RSU award by (2) the
trailing 30 trading day average closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market measured from the
last trading day prior to the date of grant. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock subject to Executive’s
PSUs will be calculated by dividing (1) the value of the proposed PSU award by (2) the estimated per share fair value
of such award as determined under the financial accounting assumptions used by the Company (e.g., the estimated Monte-Carlo value
of such award).

 

(e)            Equity
Award Vesting. Executive’s equity grant will vest as follows, provided Executive continues to be a Service Provider (as
defined in the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan) through the applicable vesting date:

 

(i)            RSUs.
Executive’s RSU award will vest based on the Executive’s vesting start date as determined by the Committee which date
will be no later than 30 days after the Effective Date (“Initial RSU Vesting Start Date”) over a 3-year period as follows:
(a) 1/3 of the RSUs will vest on the 1-year anniversary of the Initial RSU Vesting Start Date; and (b) 1/3 of the RSUs
will vest on each of the next 2 anniversaries of the Initial RSU Vesting Start Date.

 

(ii)            PSUs.
Executive’s PSU award will vest based on the Company’s achievement of a relative total shareholder return performance
goal as compared to the Russell 1000 Index for the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the 3rd anniversary
of the Effective Date. The terms of the PSU award will be substantially consistent with the form of PSU award agreement filed as
an exhibit to the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending September 28, 2019.

 

(f)            Annual
Equity Awards. Beginning with the Company’s 2021 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter during the term of this
Agreement (and subject to the approval of the Board or Committee), Executive will be eligible for an annual equity award as determined
by the Board or Committee.

 

(g)            Attorney’s
Fees. The Company will pay Executive’s reasonable attorney fees incurred in the review of this Agreement, up to a maximum
of $10,000.

 

 4.            Employee Benefits.

 

(a)            Executive
will be entitled to participate in the employee benefit plans maintained by the Company and generally applicable to senior executives
of the Company. The Company may cancel or change the benefit plans and programs it offers and those changes will not breach this
Agreement.

 

(b)            The
Company will enter into an indemnification agreement with Executive substantially in the form as in effect for other senior executives
of the Company and its Board members.

 

    2

     

    

 

5.            Termination
of Employment; Severance.

 

(a)            At-Will
Employment. Executive and the Company agree that Executive’s employment with the Company will be
 “at-will” employment and may be terminated at any time with or without Cause or notice. Executive understands and
agrees this at-will employment relationship will not be modified or amended unless it is done in a writing that complies with
Section 8(f) and Section 8(i) and explicitly references this Section 5(a). Executive’s
employment will terminate upon the earlier to occur of:

 

(i)            a
termination by the Company with or without Cause (for clarity, including Executive’s termination in connection with the Company
delivering notice to Executive that the Company will not renew the Employment Term pursuant to Section 2 above if Executive
is able and willing to continue employment on the terms set forth in this Agreement at the time of such notice of non-renewal and
further that Executive continues to perform services hereunder through the remainder of the Employment Term under the Agreement,
or if earlier, the date set forth in the notice);

 

(ii)            Executive’s
Disability or death; or

 

(iii)            a
resignation by Executive with or without Good Reason.

 

(b)            Terminations
of Employment. Executive’s employment may be terminated for any reason. Upon any termination of employment, Executive
will receive benefits described in Section 5(b)(i). Executive agrees that upon termination of Executive’s employment
for any reason, Executive will resign as of the date of such termination and to the extent applicable, from the Board (and any
committees thereof), the board of directors (and any committees thereof) of any of the Company’s affiliates and from any
other positions Executive holds with the Company or any of its affiliates.

 

(i)            Termination
for Cause or Resignation Other Than for Good Reason. Executive’s employment may be terminated for Cause, effective upon
the Company’s delivery to Executive of a notice of termination or Executive may resign. If Executive’s employment is
terminated for Cause or Executive resigns other than for Good Reason, Executive will receive:

 

(1)            the
Base Salary accrued through the termination date, payable under the Company’s usual payment practices;

 

(2)            reimbursement
within 60 days following submission by Executive to the Company of appropriate supporting documentation for any unreimbursed business
expenses properly incurred by Executive prior to the termination date; provided that claims for reimbursement are submitted, under
Company policy, to the Company within 30 days following the termination date; and

 

(3)            any
fully vested and non-forfeitable employee benefits to which Executive may be entitled under the Company’s employee benefit
plans (other than benefits in the nature of severance pay) (the amounts described in clauses (1) through (3) above
are referred to later as the “Accrued Obligations”).

 

    3

     

    

 

(ii)            Termination
by Reason of Disability or Death. Executive’s employment may be terminated effective upon the Company’s delivery
to Executive of a notice of termination if Executive becomes Disabled and will automatically terminate upon Executive’s death.
Upon termination of Executive’s employment for either Disability or death, Executive or Executive’s estate (as the
case may be) will receive:

 

(1)            the
Accrued Obligations;

 

(2)            any
earned but unpaid Annual Bonus for a prior year. For the avoidance of doubt, if Executive is terminated after the end of a
fiscal year but before annual bonuses are approved and paid to other senior executives in the normal course of business, then
Executive will receive an Annual Bonus for the prior fiscal year, the actual amount of which will still be subject to the
achievement of any performance targets as established by the Company the achievement of which will be determined by the
Company. Any payment under this Section 5(b)(ii)(2) will be paid on the first to occur of (A) the date on
which Annual Bonuses are paid generally to the Company’s senior executives for the prior year or (B) 1 day
prior to the date that is 21⁄2 months following the last day of the fiscal year in which such termination occurred;
and

 

(3)            a
prorated Annual Bonus amount for the year of termination, if any would have been payable to Executive based on achievement of performance
criteria if Executive had remained employed through the full fiscal year in which the termination of employment occurred. The prorated
amount will be calculated based on the number of calendar days employed and any such prorated amount will be paid no later than
1 day prior to the date that is 21⁄2 months following the last day of the fiscal year in which such termination occurred.

 

(iii)            Termination
without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason. Executive’s employment may be terminated by the Company without Cause or
Executive may resign with Good Reason and Executive will receive the Accrued Obligations.

 

(1)            Subject
to the conditions in the Company’s Change of Control and Leadership Change Severance Plan, as filed as Exhibit 10.1
to the Company’s Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending March 30, 2019 (the “COC/Severance Plan”),
Executive may be entitled to the Change of Control Severance Benefits as set forth for the Chief Executive Officer in the COC/Severance
Plan. Executive shall not be eligible for a Change in Leadership Severance Benefits under the COC/Severance Plan.

 

(2)            If
Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or Executive resigns for Good Reason, in either
case, either (a) before a Change of Control but not In Anticipation of a Change of Control as such term is defined in the
COC/Severance Plan or (b) after the second anniversary of a Change of Control, Executive shall be eligible for a severance
payment on the Payment Date equal to the product of 2 times the sum of the Executive’s Base Salary and Target Bonus for the
fiscal year in which the Executive’s employment terminates. In addition, if the Executive qualifies for severance under this
Section 5(b)(iii)(2), the Executive shall receive from the Company, beginning on the Payment Date, and in lieu of monthly
Company-subsidized COBRA, life insurance plan premiums and/or any other welfare benefits, 18 monthly cash payments in monthly amounts
equal to $2,750; provided, however that such additional monthly cash payments shall be delayed 6 months and 1 day from the
date of termination (and then paid in one first installment equal to delayed amounts) to the extent required to avoid the imposition
of additional tax under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”) .
The Executive may, but is not obligated to, use such additional monthly cash payments toward the cost of COBRA and/or life insurance
plan premiums.

 

    4

     

    

 

(3)            As
a condition to receiving the payments and benefits set forth in Section 5(b)(iii)(1) or 5(b)(iii)(2), Executive shall
be required, within 60 days of Executive’s termination of employment (including, without limitation, a termination of employment
that occurs with the expiration of the Employment Term), to execute, deliver and not revoke (with any applicable revocation period
having expired) a general release of claims (“Release”) in a form provided by the Company substantially similar to
that set forth in Exhibit A of the COC/Severance Plan.

 

(c)            Exclusive
Remedy. If a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company occurs, the provisions of this Section 5 and
in the COC/Severance Plan are intended to be and are exclusive and in lieu of any other rights or remedies to which Executive may
otherwise be entitled, whether at law, tort or contract, in equity, or under this Agreement. Executive will be entitled to no severance
or other benefits upon termination of employment other than those benefits expressly set forth in this Section 5 and with
respect to any termination by the Company without Cause or resignation by the Executive for Good Reason, Executive shall be eligible
only for benefits under either Section 5.3(b)(iii)(1) or 5.3(b)(iii)(2) and never under both sections.

 

6.            Definitions.

 

(a)            Cause
means (i) refusal or failure to substantially perform (other than incapacity due to physical or mental illness) Executive’s
duties; provided that if curable, the failure to substantially perform will constitute Cause only if such failure continues after
the Board has provided Executive with a written demand for substantial performance setting forth in detail the specific respects
in which it believes Executive has not substantially performed Executive’s duties and has provided Executive a reasonable
opportunity to cure the same; (ii) Executive’s refusal or failure to adhere to any Company policy or follow any lawful
directive of the Board; provided that if curable, the failure will constitute Cause only if such failure continues after the Board
has provided the Executive with a written demand for adherence to such policy or following of the directive and Executive has been
provided a reasonable opportunity to cure the same; (iii) Executive discriminates or harasses, as determined in good faith
by the Board after a formal investigation by an outside investigator (which must include a good faith discussion with the Executive),
another employee or contractor of the Company or any of its affiliates on the basis of gender, race, color, creed, religion, sexual
orientation, marital status, veteran status, or any other category protected by applicable law; (iv) Executive’s breach
of a fiduciary duty owed to the Company or any of its affiliates; (v) Executive’s commission of a felony; (vi) Executive’s
misappropriation (or attempted misappropriation) of any of the funds, information, or property of the Company or any of its affiliates;
(vii) Executive’s commission of any other act or willful omission involving theft, moral turpitude, misappropriation,
embezzlement, fraud or dishonesty; or (viii) other misconduct or gross negligence by Executive that has caused or is likely
to cause, as determined in good faith by the Board, a materially adverse impact, monetary, reputational or otherwise, to the Company
or on Executive’s ability to effectively perform Executive’s duties with the Company or any affiliate.

 

(b)            Change
of Control has the meaning in the COC/Severance Plan.

 

(c)            Disabled
means physically or mentally incapacitated and unable for a period of 6 consecutive months or for an aggregate of 9 months
in any 24 consecutive month period to perform Executive’s duties (such incapacity is a “Disability”). Any
question as to the existence of a Disability will be determined in writing by a qualified independent physician mutually acceptable
to Executive and the Company. If Executive and the Company cannot agree as to a qualified independent physician, each will appoint
a physician and those 2 physicians will select a third physician who will make such determination in writing. The determination
will be final and conclusive for this Agreement.

 

    5

     

    

 

(d)            Good
Reason means, without the Executive’s consent, (i) the Company reduces Executive’s Base Salary; (ii) without
the Executive’s express written consent, the Company requires the Executive to change the location of Executive’s job
or office, so that the Executive will be based at a location more than 50 miles from the Company’s Santa Clara location;
(iii) the Executive’s Target Bonus as a percentage of Base Salary is reduced; (iv) the Executive is no longer Chief
Executive Officer of the Company; or (v) the Company or any successor company breaches any provision of this Agreement; provided,
however, that such events shall not constitute grounds for a Good Reason termination unless the Executive has provided notice to
the Company of the existence of the one or more of the above conditions within 90 days of Executive’s knowledge of its initial
existence and the Company has been provided at least 30 days to remedy the condition.

 

(e)            Payment
Date means the date which occurs 60 days following the Executive’s separation from service (as that term is defined in
Section 409A); provided, however, if the Release becomes effective and irrevocable prior to 60 days following the
Executive’s separation from service, the Payment Date means the second business day after the Release becomes effective
and irrevocable unless the 60 day period following the Executive’s separation from service spans 2 calendar years in
which event the Payment Date means the later of (i) the second business day after the Release becomes effective and
irrevocable and (ii) the second business day of the second calendar year in such 60 day period.

 

7.            Covenants.

 

(a)            Concurrently
with his entry into this Agreement, Executive has entered into the Employee Confidential Information and Arbitration Agreement
in the form substantially consistent with the form provided to the Company’s other employees.

 

(b)            During
the Employment Term and continuing for a period of 1 year after Executive’s termination date, Executive agrees not to
make any public statement that is intended, or may reasonably be expected to harm the reputation, business, prospects or operations
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company Group”). During the Employment Term and continuing
for a period of 1 year after Executive’s termination date, the Company agrees not to make any public statement that
is intended, or may reasonably be expected to harm the reputation of Executive. The non-disparagement provisions will not apply
to any statements that a Party or its respective officers and directors make in addressing any disparaging statements made by the
other Party so long as such statements are truthful. Executive and the Company expressly consider the restrictions contained in
this Section 7(b) to be reasonable. Executive acknowledges that nothing in this Agreement prohibits or restricts Executive
from initiating communications directly with, responding to any inquiry from, or providing information to or testimony before,
the Securities and Exchange Commission, Department of Justice, or any other governmental agency or self-regulatory organization,
about actual or potential violations of laws or regulations. Executive further acknowledges that Executive is not required to obtain
the Company’s prior authorization before engaging in such communications, nor is Executive required to inform the Company
about such communications.

 

8.            Miscellaneous.

 

(a)            Governing
Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard
to conflicts of laws principles thereof.

 

(b)            Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, the Employee Confidential Information and Arbitration Agreement, and the Equity Documents, contains
the entire understanding of the parties with respect to Executive’s employment and supersedes any prior agreements or understandings
(including verbal agreements) between the parties relating to the subject matter of this agreement. There are no restrictions,
agreements, promises, warranties, covenants or undertakings between the parties with respect to the subject matter herein other
than those expressly set forth herein. This Agreement may not be altered, modified, or amended except by written instrument signed
by the parties that references this Section 8(b).

 

 

    6

     

    

 

(c)            Severability.
In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement will be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected.

 

(d)            Assignment.
Neither this Agreement nor any of Executive’s rights and duties under it is assignable or delegable by Executive. Any purported
assignment or delegation by Executive will be null and void. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company to a person or entity
which is an affiliate or a successor in interest to substantially all of its business operations. Upon such assignment, the rights

in no event shall the Company or any of its affiliates (or any of their successors) be liable for any additional tax,
interest or penalty that may be imposed on the Executive pursuant to Section 409A or for any damages incurred by the
Executive as a result of this Agreement (or the payments hereunder) failing to comply with, or be exempt from

Agreement to the contrary if at the time the Executive’s employment hereunder terminates, the Executive is a
