the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of the Competitive Borrowing; provided that (i) the failure of the Company to give such notice shall be deemed to be a

 (g) Funding of Competitive Bid Loans. Any Lender whose offer to make any Competitive Bid Loan has
been accepted in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 2.04 shall, not later than 12:00 noon New York City time on the date specified for the making of such Competitive Bid Loan, make the amount of such Competitive Bid Loan
available to the Administrative Agent at an account designated by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for account of the Company. The amount so received by the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, be made available to the Company on such date by depositing the same, in immediately available funds, in an account designated by the Company.

this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then
the relevant Lender and the relevant Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such
Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, calculated at a rate of interest determined by the Administrative Agent to reflect its cost of funds. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such
amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.06. Interest Elections. 
 (a) Elections by Borrowers for Revolving Borrowings. Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing
Request and, in the case of a Revolving Eurocurrency Borrowing (other than for any Euro Rate Reference Loan), shall have the Interest Period specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the relevant Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing
to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a Revolving Eurocurrency Borrowing (other than for any Euro Rate Reference Loan), may elect the Interest Period therefor,

provided that (i) a Revolving Borrowing denominated in one Currency may not be continued as, or converted to, a Revolving Borrowing in a different Currency, and (ii) no Revolving Eurocurrency Borrowing in a Currency other than
Dollars may be continued if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans would exceed the total Commitments The relevant Borrower may elect
different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion
shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Competitive Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued. 
 (b) Notice of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section, the relevant Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under
Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be
confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the relevant Borrower. 
 (c) Content of Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in
compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different

shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest
Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether, in the case of a Borrowing in Dollars by a U.S. Borrower,
the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 
 (iv) in the case of a Eurocurrency
Borrowing (other than a Euro Reference Rate Borrowing), the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted
under Section 2.02(e). 
 (d) Notice by Administrative Agent to Lenders. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election
Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

 (e) Failure to Elect; Events of Default. If any Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete
Interest Election Request with respect to a LIBO Rate or EURIBO Rate Revolving Borrowing of such Borrower prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, (i) if such Borrowing is made
to any U.S. Borrower and is denominated in Dollars, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing, and (ii) if such Borrowing is denominated in a Foreign Currency or is made to any Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower, the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative

to terminate or reduce the Commitments hereunder at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the
Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Company may
state that such notice is conditional, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of
the Commitments shall be permanent.

constitute a representation and warranty by the Company as to the matters specified in clauses (B), (C) and (D) above as of the relevant Commitment Increase Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have
any obligation hereunder to become an Additional Commitment Lender and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of each Lender. 
 (ii) Effectiveness of Increase. Each Commitment Increase (and the new or additional Commitment of each Additional Commitment Lender resulting therefrom) shall become effective as of the relevant Commitment Increase Date upon receipt
by the Administrative Agent, on or prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Commitment Increase Date, of: 
 (A) a certificate of a duly authorized officer of the Company stating that the conditions with respect to such Commitment Increase under this paragraph (c) have been satisfied;

first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any facility fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All facility fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and
shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 
 (b) Administrative Agent
Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and the Currency and at the times separately agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agent. 
 (c) Payment of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars (except as otherwise provided in this Section) and
immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of facility fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 
 SECTION 2.11. Interest.

 (b) Foreign Currency Revolving Loans. The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing
in any Agreed Foreign Currency shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to: 
 (i) in the case of a EURIBO Rate
Loan, the EURIBO Rate for the Interest Period for such Loan plus the Applicable Rate plus the Applicable Additional Margin (if any); 
 (ii) in the case of a Euro Reference Rate Loan, the Euro Reference Rate for each day for such Loan plus the Applicable Margin plus the Applicable Additional Margin (if any); and 
 (iii) in the case of a Revolving Loan in any Agreed Foreign Currency (other than Euros), the LIBO Rate for such Agreed Foreign
Currency for the Interest Period in effect for such Loan plus the Applicable Rate plus the Applicable Additional Margin (if any). 
 (c) Competitive Loans. The Loans comprising each Competitive Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, the LIBO Rate for Dollars for the Interest Period in effect for such
Borrowing plus (or minus, as applicable) the Competitive Bid Margin applicable to such Loan and (ii) in the case of a Fixed Rate Loan, the Fixed Rate applicable to such Loan. 
 (d) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any
Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the
case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus (x) in the case of amounts
payable in Dollars, the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a)(i) of this Section and (y) otherwise, the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of nonpayment, constituted a Loan in the
relevant Agreed Foreign Currency of the overdue amount with an Interest Period reasonably selected by the Administrative Agent. 
 (e)
Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest
accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of a Revolving ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period),
accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Revolving Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period
therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 
 (f) Computation. All interest
hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate and interest on all Loans denominated in Pounds

 Credit Agreement 
 - 33 - 

 
year) and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate
Base Rate, LIBO Rate, EURIBO Rate or Euro Reference Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 SECTION 2.12. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing (the Currency of
such Borrowing herein called the “Affected Currency”): 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate or EURIBO Rate, as applicable, for the Affected Currency for such Interest Period; or 
 (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Competitive Eurodollar Loan, the Lender that is
required to make a Loan included in such Borrowing) that the LIBO Rate or the EURIBO Rate, as applicable, for the Affected Currency for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or
maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the
Company and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest
Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing in the Affected Currency to, or the continuation of any Revolving Borrowing in the Affected Currency as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, (ii) if the
Affected Currency is Dollars and any Borrowing Request requests a Revolving LIBO Rate Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing, (iii) if the Affected Currency is an Agreed Foreign Currency, any Borrowing Request that requests
a Revolving Eurocurrency Borrowing (other than a Euro Reference Rate Borrowing) denominated in the Affected Currency shall be ineffective and (iv) any request by the relevant Borrower for a Competitive Eurodollar Borrowing in the Affected
Currency shall be ineffective; provided that (A) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all the Lenders, then requests by the Company for Competitive Eurodollar Borrowings may be made to Lenders that are not
affected thereby and (B) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted. 
 SECTION 2.13. Increased Costs. 
 (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law
shall: 
 (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of,
deposits with or for account of, or credit extended by, any Lender; or 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 34 - 

 (ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting
this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans or Fixed Rate Loans made by such Lender or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to
increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether
of principal, interest or otherwise), then the relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. This Section shall not
apply with respect to Taxes. 
 (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital
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 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 relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) Certificates from Lenders. A certificate of a Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such
Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis. The
relevant Borrower shall pay such Lender, the amount due within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or
delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender
pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 45 days prior to the date that such Lender, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s
intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 45-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof. 
 (e) Competitive Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, a Lender shall not be
entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section in respect of any Competitive Loan if the Change in Law that would otherwise entitle it to such compensation shall have been publicly announced prior to submission of the Competitive Bid pursuant to
which such Loan was made. 
  

 Credit Agreement

 SECTION 2.14. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal
of any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period
therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.09(c)
and is revoked in accordance therewith), (d) the failure to borrow any Competitive Loan after accepting the Competitive Bid to make such Loan or (e) the assignment as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.17(b) of
any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, then, in any such event, the relevant Borrower (or, in the case of clause (e) above, the Company) shall compensate each Lender for the loss,
cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the
principal amount of such Loan in the relevant Currency thereof had such event not occurred, at the applicable LIBO Rate or EURIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the
then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such
principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits of a comparable amount and period denominated in such Currency from other banks in the eurocurrency
market at the commencement of such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive, provided
that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis. The relevant Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount due within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 SECTION 2.15. Taxes. 
 (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account
of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Borrower shall be required to deduct any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all such required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the
Administrative Agent or a Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the
Borrowers. In addition, (i) each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes imposed with respect to any payment made by such Borrower or the execution, delivery or enforcement of this Agreement and the Other Loan Documents by or against such
Borrower, and (ii) the Company shall pay any Other Taxes not described in clause (i) hereof, in each case, to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 36 - 

 (c) Indemnification by the Borrowers. Without duplication of any additional amounts paid pursuant
to Section 2.15(a), each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) for which such Borrower is responsible pursuant to this Agreement and that were paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties,
interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, provided that, if any
Borrower determines that any such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were not correctly or legally imposed or asserted, the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as applicable, shall allow such Borrower to contest (and shall cooperate in such
contest), the imposition of such Tax upon the reasonable request of such Borrower and at such Borrower’s expense; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as applicable, shall not be required to
participate in any contest that would, in its reasonable judgment, expose it to a material commercial disadvantage or require it to disclose any information it considers confidential or proprietary. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or
liability delivered to the relevant Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender (together with any supporting detail reasonably requested by such Borrower), shall be conclusive; provided
that such amounts are determined on a reasonable basis. 
 (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as reasonably practicable after any
payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such 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 the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Non-U.S. Lenders to U.S. Borrowers. Any Non-U.S. Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which any U.S. Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such
jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall deliver to the relevant U.S. Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, or as
reasonably requested by the Borrower such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such U.S. Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of
withholding. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver to the relevant U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased), on or before the date that
such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, two properly completed and duly executed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, as applicable, (or successor forms thereto), claiming a complete exemption from, or
reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by such U.S. Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly provide such forms upon becoming aware of the obsolescence, expiration or
invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender (unless it is legally unable to do so as a result of a Change in Law) and shall promptly notify U.S. Borrower at any time it determines that any previously delivered forms are no
longer valid. 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 37 - 

 (f) Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion,
that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes from the Governmental Authority to which such Taxes or Other Taxes were paid or determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that it has obtained the benefit of a credit for
Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which such Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay over such refund or the net benefit attributable to such credit to such Borrower (but
only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative
Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit); provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender,
agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any interest to the extent accrued from the date such refund or credit is paid over to such Borrower) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or
such Lender is required to repay such refund or credit to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its
taxes which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person. 
 (g) Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. If the Administrative
Agent or any Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in the rate of the imposition, deduction or withholding of any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax under the laws of the jurisdiction in which any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized or
engaged in business, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as the case may be)
shall deliver to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or the relevant Governmental Authority, in the manner and at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Company (at least 60 days prior to the due date required
for submission thereof), such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company as will permit such payments to be made without the imposition, deduction or withholding of such
Indemnified Tax or Other Tax or at a reduced rate, provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in its reasonable judgment such completion, execution or
submission would not materially prejudice its commercial or legal position or require disclosure of information it considers confidential or proprietary. 
 SECTION 2.16. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set offs. 
 (a) Payments by
Borrowers. (i) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due,
in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the 

  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 38 - 

 
next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the relevant
Administrative Agent’s Account, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for
account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and,
in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. 
 (ii) Prior to any
prepayment of any Borrowings hereunder, the relevant Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be paid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than 1:00 p.m., New
York time (or, in the case of a Borrowing in any Agreed Foreign Currency or any Borrowing by any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, not later than 1:00 p.m., London time), three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. If the
relevant Borrower fails to make a timely selection of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid or prepaid, such payment shall be applied, first, to pay (in the case of Borrowings of any U.S. Borrower) any outstanding ABR Borrowings and, second,
to other Borrowings in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid first). 
 (iii) All amounts owing under this Agreement (including facility fees, payments required under Section 2.13, and payments required under
Section 2.14 relating to any Loan in Dollars, but not including principal of, and interest on, any Loan in any Agreed Foreign Currency or payments relating to any such Loan required under Section 2.14, which are payable in such Agreed
Foreign Currency) are payable in Dollars. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the relevant Borrower shall fail to pay any principal of any Loan when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise), the unpaid
portion of such Loan shall, if such Loan is not denominated in Dollars, automatically be redenominated in Dollars on the due date thereof (or, if such due date is a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor, on the last day of such
Interest Period) in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the date of such redenomination and such principal shall be payable on demand; and if the relevant Borrower shall fail to pay any interest on any Loan that is not denominated in
Dollars, such interest shall automatically be redenominated in Dollars on the due date therefor (or, if such due date is a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor, on the last day of such Interest Period) in an amount equal to
the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the date of such redenomination and such interest shall be payable on demand. 
 (b) Application of
Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay
interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties
entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties. 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 39 - 

 (c) Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each Revolving
Borrowing shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of fees for account of the Lenders under Section 2.10 shall be made for account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.07
shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (ii) each Revolving Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their
respective Commitments (in the case of the making of Revolving Loans) or their respective Revolving Loans that are to be included in such Borrowing (in the case of conversions or continuations of Revolving Loans); (iii) each payment or
prepayment of principal of Loans by the relevant Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Loans held by them; and (iv) each payment of interest on
Revolving Loans by the relevant Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Revolving Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders. 
 (d) Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in
respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any
other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary 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 Revolving Loans ; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving
rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by
the relevant Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Loans to any assignee or
participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each 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 such Borrower rights of set off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such
Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 (e) Presumptions of Payment. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such
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 relevant Borrower has not in fact made such payment,
then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender 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, calculated at a rate of interest determined by the Administrative Agent to reflect its cost of funds. 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 40 - 

 (f) Certain Deductions by Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment
required to be made by it pursuant to 2.05(b) or 2.16(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for account of such
Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 SECTION 2.17. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 
 (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If
any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13 or incurs any MCR Cost pursuant to Exhibit A, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its 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 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, or such MCR Costs in the future and (ii) would not subject such
Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each 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 2.13 or incurs any MCR Cost pursuant to
Exhibit A, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder,
then the Company 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
Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), which shall upon such assumption be a
“Lender” for all purposes hereof; provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to such assignee (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld) and (if a Commitment
is being assigned) each Lender, (ii) 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, from the assignee
(to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the relevant Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 2.13, payments of any MCR Cost pursuant to Exhibit A or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make
any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 41 - 

 SECTION 2.18. Extension of Commitment Termination Date. (a) The Company may, by notice
to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders) not more than 60 days and not less than 30 days prior to the Commitment Termination Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Commitment Termination Date”),
request (each, an “Extension Request”) that the Lenders extend the Existing Commitment Termination Date for an additional 364 days from the Existing Commitment Termination Date (or if such date is not a Business Day, the next
preceding Business Day). Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by notice to the Company and the Administrative Agent given not later than the date 20 days (or such later day as shall be acceptable to the Company) prior to the Existing
Commitment Termination Date (provided that, if such date is not a Business Day, then such notice shall be given not later than the next succeeding Business Day), advise the Company and the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender
agrees to such extension; provided that any Lender that does not so advise the Company shall be deemed to have rejected such Extension Request (any such Lender which shall have rejected or is deemed to have rejected such extension being a
“Non-Extending Lender”). The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree. 
 (b) The Company shall have the right, at any time prior to the Existing Commitment Termination Date, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to replace any Non-Extending Lender with, and otherwise add to this
Agreement, one or more Additional Commitment Lenders. Each Additional Commitment Lender shall enter into an agreement with the Company and the Administrative Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent,
pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective as of such Existing Commitment Termination Date, provide a new or additional Commitment hereunder in the amount specified therein and (if not then an existing Lender) become a
Lender hereunder. 
 (c) If (and only if) the total of the Commitments of the Lenders that have agreed in connection with any Extension
Request to extend the Existing Commitment Termination Date and (if applicable) the additional Commitments of the Additional Commitment Lender(s) shall be at least 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the
Existing Commitment Termination Date, then, effective as of the Existing Commitment Termination Date, the Commitment Termination Date, but only with respect to the Commitment of each Lender that has agreed to so extend its Commitment and (if
applicable) each Additional Commitment Lender that has replaced a Non-Extending Lender, shall be extended to the date that is 364 days after the Existing Commitment Termination Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding

as its 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 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 such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any
kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. 
 The
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any
fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent 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 in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the
failure to disclose, any information relating to any of the Group Members that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of
its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Company or a Lender, and the
Administrative Agent 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 

  

 Credit Agreement

hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth
herein or in any other Loan Document, (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. 
 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 believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed or sent 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 be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for
relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), 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. 
 The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its
rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent (and which may include any of its Affiliates and, without limiting the foregoing, it is agreed that J.P. Morgan Europe Limited will act for the purposes
of performing certain administrative functions with respect to Eurocurrency Borrowings, until otherwise determined by the Administrative Agent). The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its
rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs of this Section 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. 
 Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Company. Upon any such
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor. If no 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, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York or an
Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative
Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise
agreed between the Company and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its
sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent. 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 56 - 

 Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or
any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon
the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other
Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
the Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners, the Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agents named on the cover page of this Agreement shall not have any duties or liabilities under this Agreement, except in their capacity, if any, as Lenders.

exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific

or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
 (b) Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or
modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such

written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby;

amount of any Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender
adversely affected thereby;

 (iv) change Section 2.16(b), (c) or (d) in a manner that would alter the
pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender;

 (vi) release or terminate the obligations of the Company under
Article X, so long as any Subsidiary Borrower is a party hereto or the Company has the right to so designate a Subsidiary Borrower hereunder; 
 provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable
fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this
Section, including in connection with any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof. 
 (b) Indemnification by the
Company. The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (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 reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection
with, or as a result of any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any threatened investigation or litigation or other proceedings) relating to (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of proceeds thereof,
(iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any of the Group Members, or any related liability related in any way to any of the Group Members, or (iv) any claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any 

  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 59 - 

 
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 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 its Affiliates or its or their directors,
officers, employees, agents or representatives. 
 (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Company fails to pay any
amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage
(determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; 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 in its capacity as such. 
 (d) Waiver of Consequential
Damages, Etc. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
 (e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. 
 SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) Assignments 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 (i) no Borrower may
assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void), except that pursuant to
Section 2.19(c) any Subsidiary Borrower may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to the Company pursuant to an assignment and assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and
(ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. 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 paragraph (c) 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.

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) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

 (A) the Company, provided that no consent of the Company shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an
Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under clauses (a), (b), (g), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; and 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 60 - 

 (B) the Administrative Agent. 
 (ii) Certain Conditions to Assignments. Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the
assigning Lender’s Commitment, the amount of the Commitment or 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) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default under clauses (a), (b),
(g), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing; 
 (B) 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; 
 (C)
the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and 
 (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
 (iii) Effectiveness of Assignments. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after
the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto 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 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a
Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with
paragraph (c) of this Section. 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 61 - 

 (iv) Maintenance of Register. The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the
Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to,
each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person
whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (v) Acceptance of Assignments by Administrative Agent. Upon
its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and
recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the
information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to 2.05(b), 2.16(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent
shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be
effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c)
Participations. 
 (i) Participations Generally. Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent
or any other Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment
and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for
the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and (D) no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to Section 2.15 than such Participant would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation
transferred by such transferor Lender had such Participant acquired its interest pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. 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 the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision hereof or thereof; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will
not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that adversely affects such Participant. Subject to the foregoing and paragraph (c)(ii) of this
Section, 

  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 62 - 

 
the parties hereto agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 and in the case of Section 2.15(e)
and Section 2.15(g) subject to the same obligations to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16(c) as though it were a Lender. 
 (ii) Limitations on Rights of Participants. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14, 2.15 or
2.16 than the relevant Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant (assuming the relevant Lender complied with its obligations under Section 2.15(g)), unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless the Company is notified of
the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the U.S. Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender. 
 (d) 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 to
secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that
no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrowers herein and in the certificates or
other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans,
regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any
credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the
Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the
repayment of the Loans and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 
 SECTION 9.06.
Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. This Agreement 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, 

  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 63 - 

 
relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a
particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any of and all the obligations of such Borrower now or
hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are
in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
 SECTION 9.09. Governing
Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. 
 (a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the law of the State of New York. 
 (b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding
shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement against any other party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c) Waiver of Venue. Each
of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of
or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
such action or proceeding in any such court. 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 64 - 

 (d) Service of Process. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in
the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
 SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE
TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT
NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER
PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 SECTION 9.11. Judgment Currency. This is an international loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars or an Agreed Foreign Currency, as the case may be (the “Specified Currency”), and payment in New
York City or the country of the Specified Currency, as the case may be (the “Specified Place”), is of the essence, and the Specified Currency shall be the Currency of account in all events relating to Loans denominated in the
Specified Currency. The payment obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement shall not be discharged or satisfied by an amount paid in another Currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the
amount so paid on conversion to the Specified Currency and transfer to the Specified Place under normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of the Specified Currency at the Specified Place due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining
judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in the Specified Currency into another Currency (the “Second Currency”), the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be the rate at which in accordance with
normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the Specified Currency with the Second Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered. The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any such
sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (in this Section called an “Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such
judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder in the Second Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures
purchase and transfer to the Specified Place the Specified Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so adjudged to be due; and each Borrower hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such
Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in the Specified Currency, the amount (if any) by which the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in the Specified Currency hereunder exceeds the amount of the Specified
Currency so purchased and transferred.

 SECTION 9.13. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as

 Credit Agreement 
 - 66 - 

 
execution of a judgment, and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed such an immunity (whether or not claimed), such Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such immunity with respect to its obligations under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9.16. Lender Representation – Professional Market Party. Each Lender represents and warrants on the date that a Borrower incorporated or resident in The Netherlands (each a “Dutch
Borrower”) first becomes a party hereto that the amount in relation to a loan/commitment to such Dutch Borrower is at least €50,000 (or the equivalent in another currency) or that it is a professional market party within the meaning of
the Act on Financial Supervision (Wet op het financieel toezicht) and the regulations promulgated thereunder. 
 ARTICLE X  

 GUARANTEE 
 SECTION
10.01. Guarantee. The Company (for purposes of this Article, the “Guarantor”) hereby guarantees to each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due
(whether by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on the Loans made by the Lenders to each Subsidiary Borrower, and all other amounts from time to time owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent by each Subsidiary
Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantor hereby further
agrees that if any Subsidiary Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantor will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the
case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 

SECTION 10.02. Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantor under Section 10.01 are absolute and unconditional,
irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of any Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or any substitution,
release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Article that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as
described above: 
 (i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantor, the time for any performance of or
compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; 
  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 67 - 

 (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other
agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be done or omitted; or 
 (iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be waived or any other
guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with. 
 The
Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right,
power or remedy or proceed against any Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

 SECTION 10.03. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Article shall be automatically reinstated if and to the
extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Subsidiary Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any
proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by the
Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such reasonable costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer
or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. 
 SECTION 10.04. Subrogation. The Guarantor hereby agrees that
until the payment and satisfaction in full of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by it
of its guarantee in Section 10.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against any Subsidiary Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. 
 SECTION 10.05. Remedies. The Guarantor agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as between the Guarantor on the one hand
and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on the other, the obligations of any Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VII (and shall be deemed to have become
automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VII) for purposes of Section 10.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other 

  

 Credit Agreement 
 - 68 - 

 
prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any Subsidiary Borrower and that, in the
event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by such Subsidiary Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for
purposes of Section 10.01. 
 SECTION 10.06. Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article is a continuing guarantee, and
shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising until the expiration or termination of the Commitments and payment in full of the principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees and other amounts payable hereunder.

 Schedule 1.01(a) to Credit Agreement 

 EXHIBIT A 
 MCR Cost 
 Calculation of Mandatory Cost Rate 
  

	1.	The MCR Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services
Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank. 

  

	2.	On the first day of each Interest Period for any Loan denominated in Pounds Sterling or Euros (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a
percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender participating in such Loan, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The MCR Cost will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of
such Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each such Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum rounded upwards, if necessary, to four decimal places.

  

	3.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a specific lending office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative
Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that lending
office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that lending office. 

  

	4.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a lending office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows: 

  

	 	(a)	in relation to a Loan made in Pounds Sterling: 

  

			
	 AB+C(B-D)+E x 0.01
	 	percent per annum
	100-(A+C)	 

  

	 	(b)	in relation to a Loan made in Euros: 

  

			
	 E x 0.01
	 	percent per annum.
	300	 

  

 MCR Cost 

 Where: 
  

	 	A	is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (in excess of any stated minimum) which such Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with
the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements. 

  

	 	B	is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin and the MCR Cost and, if applicable, any additional amount of interest specified in Section 2.14(d)) payable
for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan. 

  

	 	C	is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which such Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

  

	 	D	is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits. 

  

	 	E	is designed to compensate the Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge
supplied by the Reference Lenders (as defined in this Exhibit) to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000. 

  

	5.	For the purposes of this Exhibit A: 

  

	 	(a)	“Eligible Liabilities” has the meaning given to it from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of
England. 

  

	 	(b)	“Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the Supervision Manual of the Financial Services Authority or such other law or regulation as may be in
force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits. 

  

	 	(c)	“Financial Services Authority” means the body corporate known by that name that has the functions conferred on it by or under the Financial Services and Markets Act
2000 or any successor entity. 

  

	 	(d)	“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required
pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate). 

  

	 	(e)	“Reference Lenders” means, collectively, the principal London offices of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Citibank, N.A. and Société Générale
and such other banks as may be appointed by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Company. 

  

 MCR Cost 

	 	(f)	“Special Deposits” has the meaning given to it from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of
England. 

  

	 	(g)	“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules. 

  

	6.	In application of the above formula, A, B, C and D will be included in the formula as percentages (i.e. 5 percent will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative
result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places. 

  

	7.	If requested by the Administrative Agent, each Reference Lender shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Administrative
Agent, the rate of charge payable by such Reference Lender to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by such Reference
Lender as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to such Reference Lender for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of such Reference Lender. 

  

	8.	Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each
Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender: 

  

	 	(a)	the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office; and 

  

	 	(b)	any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose. 

 Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph. 
  

	9.	The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Lender for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Administrative
Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and
Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a lending office in the same jurisdiction as its lending office. 

  

	10.	The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any Person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be
entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects. 

  

 MCR Cost 

	11.	The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the MCR Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based
on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above. 

  

	12.	Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Exhibit A in relation to a formula, the MCR Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender
shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to the Credit Agreement. 

  

	13.	The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Company and the Lenders, determine in its reasonable judgment and provide notice to the Company and the
Lenders of any amendments which are required to be made to this Exhibit A in order to comply with any Change in Law or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central
Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to the Credit Agreement.

 EXHIBIT A-1 
 PALM, INC. 
 1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN 
 RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT 
 Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms
defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement. 
 WHEREAS the Purchaser named in the
Notice of Grant, (the “Purchaser”) is a Service Provider, and the Purchaser’s continued participation is considered by the Company to be important for the Company’s continued growth; and 
 WHEREAS in order to give the Purchaser an opportunity to acquire an equity interest in the Company as an incentive for the Purchaser to participate in
the affairs of the Company, the Administrator has granted to the Purchaser a Stock Purchase Right subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Notice of Grant, which are incorporated herein by reference, and pursuant to this Restricted
Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”). 
 NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Sale of Stock. The Company hereby agrees to sell to the Purchaser and the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase shares of the
Company’s Common Stock (the “Shares”), at the per Share purchase price and as otherwise described in the Notice of Grant. 
 2. Payment of Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Shares shall be paid by delivery to the Company at the time of execution of this Agreement of cash, a check, or some combination thereof. If the purchase
price is not paid at the time of execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees to pay the purchase price for any particular Shares no later than immediately before the time when the Shares are to be released from the Company’s Repurchase
Option. The Purchaser further agrees that if he or she does not pay the purchase price at the time of execution of this Agreement, the Company shall have the power and right (but not the obligation) at any time to withhold the unpaid purchase price
from any salary, bonus or other wages otherwise payable to the Purchaser. Such power and right shall not in any way impair or diminish the Company’s right to enforce payment of the purchase price through any other method. 
 3. Repurchase Option. In the event the Purchaser ceases to be a Service Provider for any or no reason (including death or
disability) before all of the Shares are released from the Company’s Repurchase Option (see Section 4), the Company shall, upon the date of such termination (as reasonably fixed and determined by the Company) have an irrevocable, exclusive
option (the “Repurchase Option”) for a period of sixty (60) days from such date to repurchase up to that number of shares which constitute the Unreleased Shares (as defined in Section 4) at the original purchase price per share
(the “Repurchase Price”). The Repurchase Option shall be exercised by the Company by delivering written notice to the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s executor (with a copy to the Escrow 

 
Holder) AND, at the Company’s option, (i) by delivering to the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s executor a check in the amount of the aggregate
Repurchase Price, or (ii) by canceling an amount of the Purchaser’s indebtedness to the Company equal to the aggregate Repurchase Price, or (iii) by a combination of (i) and (ii) so that the combined payment and cancellation
of indebtedness equals the aggregate Repurchase Price. Upon delivery of such notice and the payment of the aggregate Repurchase Price, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Shares being repurchased and all rights and
interests therein or relating thereto, and the Company shall have the right to retain and transfer to its own name the number of Shares being repurchased by the Company. 
 Whenever the Company shall have the right to repurchase Shares hereunder, the Company may designate and assign one or more employees, officers, directors or shareholders of the Company or other persons or
organizations to exercise all or a part of the Company’s purchase rights under this Agreement and purchase all or a part of such Shares. If the Fair Market Value of the Shares to be repurchased on the date of such designation or assignment (the
“Repurchase FMV”) exceeds the aggregate Repurchase Price of such Shares, then each such designee or assignee shall pay the Company cash equal to the difference between the Repurchase FMV and the aggregate Repurchase Price of such Shares.

 4. Release of Shares From Repurchase Option. Shares shall be released from the Company’s Repurchase Option
consistent with the vesting schedule in the Notice of Grant of Stock Purchase Right, provided that the Purchaser does not cease to be a Service Provider prior to the date of any such release. Please see vesting schedule in the Notice of Grant of
Stock Purchase Right. 
 5. Any of the Shares that have not yet been released from the Repurchase Option are referred to
herein as “Unreleased Shares.” 
 The Shares that have been released from the Repurchase Option shall be delivered to the Purchaser
at the Purchaser’s request (see Section 6). 
 6. Restriction on Transfer. Except for the escrow described in
Section 6 or the transfer of the Shares to the Company or its assignees contemplated by this Agreement, none of the Shares or any beneficial interest therein shall be transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in any way until such Shares
are released from the Company’s Repurchase Option in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. 
 7. Escrow of Shares. To ensure the availability for delivery of the Purchaser’s Unreleased Shares upon repurchase by the
Company pursuant to the Repurchase Option, the Purchaser shall, upon execution of this Agreement, deliver and deposit with an escrow holder designated by the Company (the “Escrow Holder”) the share certificates representing the Unreleased
Shares, together with the stock assignment duly endorsed in blank, attached hereto as Exhibit A-2. The Unreleased Shares and stock assignment shall be held by the Escrow Holder, pursuant to the Joint Escrow Instructions of the Company and
Purchaser attached hereto as Exhibit A-3, until such time as the Company’s Repurchase Option expires. As a further condition to the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, the Company may require the spouse of Purchaser, if any,
to execute and deliver to the Company the Consent of Spouse attached hereto as Exhibit A-4. 

 The Escrow Holder shall not be liable for any act it may do or omit to do with respect to holding the
Unreleased Shares in escrow while acting in good faith and in the exercise of its judgment. 
 If the Company or any assignee exercises the
Repurchase Option hereunder, the Escrow Holder, upon receipt of written notice of such exercise from the proposed transferee, shall take all steps necessary to accomplish such transfer. 
 When the Repurchase Option has been exercised or expires unexercised or a portion of the Shares has been released from the Repurchase Option, upon
request the Escrow Holder shall promptly cause a new certificate to be issued, or shares delivered in Street name, for the released Shares and shall deliver the certificate to the Company or the Purchaser, or to the broker, as the case may be.

 Subject to the terms hereof, the Purchaser shall have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Shares while they are held in
escrow, including without limitation, the right to vote the Shares and to receive any cash dividends declared thereon. If, from time to time during the term of the Repurchase Option, there is (i) any stock dividend, stock split or other change
in the Shares, or (ii) any merger or sale of all or substantially all of the assets or other acquisition of the Company, any and all new, substituted or additional securities to which the Purchaser is entitled by reason of the Purchaser’s
ownership of the Shares shall be immediately subject to this escrow, deposited with the Escrow Holder and included thereafter as “Shares” for purposes of this Agreement and the Repurchase Option. 
 8. Legends. The share certificate evidencing the Shares, if any, issued hereunder shall be endorsed with the following legend (in
addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws): 
 THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE
SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS UPON TRANSFER AND RIGHTS OF REPURCHASE AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE SHAREHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY. 
 9. Adjustment for Stock Split. All references to the number of Shares and the purchase price of the Shares in this Agreement shall
be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or other change in the Shares that may be made by the Company after the date of this Agreement. 
 10. Tax Consequences. 
 (a) The Purchaser has reviewed with the Purchaser’s own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser is
relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. The Purchaser understands that the Purchaser (and not the Company) shall be responsible for the Purchaser’s own tax liability that
may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser understands that Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), taxes as ordinary income the difference between
the purchase price for the Shares and the Fair Market Value of the Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this context, “restriction” includes the right of the Company to buy back the Shares pursuant to the
Repurchase Option. 

 (b) Prior to the delivery of any Shares to the Purchaser, the Company shall have the
right, in its discretion, to require the Purchaser to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy any Federal, state, and local taxes that the Company determines are required to be withheld with respect to such Shares. The Purchaser further
agrees that if he or she does not remit such amounts prior to the date the Shares are released from the Company’s Repurchase Option, the Company shall have the right, in its discretion, to withhold from the Shares such number of Shares having a
Fair Market Value equal to or less than the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld with respect to the Shares. For this purpose, the Fair Market Value of the withheld Shares shall be determined as of the date that Palm’s repurchase
rights lapse (vest date). 
 11. General Provisions. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws,
but not the choice of law rules of California. This Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Notice of Grant, represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the purchase of the Shares by the Purchaser.
Subject to Section 15(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. Unless otherwise defined herein,
the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Agreement. 
 Any notice, demand or request required or permitted
to be given by either the Company or the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally or deposited in the U.S. mail, First Class with postage prepaid, and addressed to the
parties at the addresses of the parties set forth at the end of this Agreement or such other address as a party may request by notifying the other in writing. 
 Any notice to the Escrow Holder shall be sent to the Company’s address with a copy to the other party hereto. 
 The rights of the Company under this Agreement shall be transferable to any one or more persons or entities, and all covenants and agreements hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by the Company’s successors and
assigns. The rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement may only be assigned with the prior written consent of the Company. 
 Either party’s failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision, nor prevent that party from thereafter enforcing any other provision of this Agreement. The rights
granted both parties hereunder are cumulative and shall not constitute a waiver of either party’s right to assert any other legal remedy available to it. 
 The Purchaser agrees upon request to execute any further documents or instruments necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes or intent of this Agreement. 
 PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO SECTION 4 HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING SERVICE AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT
THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED OR PURCHASING SHARES HEREUNDER). PURCHASER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS 

 
CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE
PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE WITH PURCHASER’S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE PURCHASER’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.

 By Purchaser’s signature below, Purchaser represents that he or she is familiar with the terms and provisions of the Plan, and hereby
accepts this Agreement subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Purchaser has reviewed the Plan and this Agreement in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Agreement and fully
understands all provisions of this Agreement. Purchaser agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Administrator upon any questions arising under the Plan or this Agreement. Purchaser further agrees to
notify the Company upon any change in the residence indicated in the Notice of Grant.

corporation, excepting only orders or process of courts of law, and are hereby expressly authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any court. In case you obey or comply with any such order, judgment or decree, you shall not
be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person, firm or corporation by reason of such compliance, notwithstanding any such order, judgment or decree being subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have
been entered without jurisdiction.

rights of the parties executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver the Agreement or any documents or papers deposited or called for hereunder.

agreement of the parties concerned or by a final order, decree or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction after the time for appeal has expired and no appeal has been perfected, but you shall be under no duty whatsoever to institute or defend
any such proceedings. 

 15. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be
deemed effectively given upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the United States Post Office, by registered or certified mail with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to each of the other parties thereunto entitled at the following addresses or
