CREDIT AGREEMENT, dated
as of July 30, 2014, among HORACE MANN EDUCATORS CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”),
the LENDERS party hereto, and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”).

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower,
various lenders and the Administrative Agent are parties to a Credit Agreement, dated as of October 7, 2011, (the “Existing
Credit Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, the parties
have agreed to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement pursuant to this Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS, the parties
intend that this Agreement and the documents executed in connection herewith not effect a novation of the obligations of the Borrower
under the Existing Credit Agreement, but merely a restatement of and, where applicable, an amendment to the terms governing such
obligations;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties
hereto agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE
I

 

Definitions

interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate.

 

“Adjusted
LIBO Rate” means, with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum equal
to (a) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate.

 

“Administrative
Agent” has the meaning assigned to such term in the Preamble.

 

“Administrative
Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in a form supplied by the Administrative Agent.

 

“Affiliate”
means, with respect to a specified Person, another Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls

“Alternate
Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such
day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1⁄2 of 1%, and (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate
for a one-month Interest Period on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) plus
1%, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any day shall be based on the rate appearing
on the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or on any successor or substitute page) at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time on such day.
Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO
Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate
or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, respectively.

 

“Annual Statement”
means the annual statutory financial statement of any Insurance Subsidiary required to be filed with the insurance commissioner
(or similar authority) of its jurisdiction of incorporation, which statement shall be in the form required by such Insurance Subsidiary’s
jurisdiction of incorporation or, if no specific form is so required, in the form of financial statements permitted by such insurance
commissioner (or such similar authority) to be used for filing annual statutory financial statements and shall contain the type
of information permitted by such insurance commissioner (or such similar authority) to be disclosed therein, together with all
exhibits or schedules filed therewith.

 

“Anti-Corruption
Laws” means all laws, rules, and regulations of any jurisdiction applicable to the Borrower or its Subsidiaries from
time to time concerning or relating to bribery or corruption.

 

“Applicable
Percentage” means, with respect to any Lender, the percentage of the total Commitments represented by such Lender’s
Commitment. If the Commitments have terminated or expired, the Applicable Percentages shall be determined based upon the Commitments
most recently in effect, giving effect to any assignments.

 

“Applicable
Rate” means, for any day, with respect to any ABR Loan or Eurodollar Loan, or with respect to the commitment fees
payable hereunder, as the case may be, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “ABR Spread”,
“Eurodollar Spread” or “Commitment Fee Rate”, as the case may be, based upon the ratings by S&P and
Moody’s, respectively, applicable on such date to the Index Debt:

 

	Index Debt Ratings 
(S&P/Moody’s):	 	ABR 
Spread:	 	 	Eurodollar 
Spread:	 	 	Commitment Fee 
Rate:	 
	Category 1 
A-/A3 or better	 	 	0	%	 	 	0.875	%	 	 	0.10	%
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Category 2 
BBB+/Baa1	 	 	0.125	%	 	 	1.000	%	 	 	0.125	%
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Category 3

    	2

    	 

    

  

	Category 4 
BBB-/Baa3	 	 	0.375	%	 	 	1.250	%	 	 	0.175	%
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Category 5 
less than BBB-/Baa3	 	 	0.50	%	 	 	1.375	%	 	 	0.25	%

  

For purposes of the foregoing,
(i) if either Moody’s or S&P shall not have in effect a rating for the Index Debt (other than by reason of the circumstances
referred to in the last sentence of this definition), then such rating agency shall be deemed to have established a rating in Category
5; (ii) if the ratings established or deemed to have been established by Moody’s and S&P for the Index Debt shall differ
by one rating, the Applicable Rate shall be based on the higher of the two credit ratings; (iii) if the ratings established or
deemed to have been established by Moody’s and S&P for the Index Debt shall differ by two or more ratings, the Applicable
Rate shall be one rating level below the higher of such credit ratings; and (iv) if the ratings established or deemed to have been
established by Moody’s and S&P for the Index Debt shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating
system of Moody’s or S&P), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the applicable
rating agency, irrespective of when notice of such change shall have been furnished by the Borrower to the Agent and the Lenders
pursuant to Section 5.01 or otherwise. Each change in the Applicable Rate shall apply during the period commencing on the effective
date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system
of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate
debt obligations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating
system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable
Rate shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect from such rating agency prior to such change or cessation.

under the Existing Credit Agreement (whether or not otherwise then due) and, third, as the Borrower shall direct, and (v) all Loans
shall commence new Interest Periods in accordance with elections made by the Borrower at least three Business Days prior to the
Effective Date pursuant to the procedures applicable to conversions and continuations set forth in Section 2.05 (all as if the
Existing Loans were continued or converted as of the Effective Date).  To the extent the Borrower fails to make a timely election
pursuant to clause (v) of the preceding sentence with respect to any Loans, such Loans shall be ABR Loans.

The
Credits

 

SECTION 2.01.            Commitments.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Loans to the Borrower from time to time during
the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure
exceeding such Lender’s Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Loans.

 

SECTION 2.02.            Loans
and Borrowings. (a)  Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably
in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not
relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall
be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

 

(b)            Subject to Section 2.14,
each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith.
Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to
make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such
Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(c)            At the commencement
of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple
of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate
amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an
aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding
at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 5 Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding.

 

    	19

    	 

    

 

(d)            Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing
if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

 

SECTION 2.03.            Requests
for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a)
in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date
of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one
Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be
confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile (or e-mail with a PDF copy attached) to the Administrative Agent of a written
Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing
Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

 

(i)            the
aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;

 

(ii)           the
date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

 

(iii)          whether
such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;

 

(iv)          in
the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated
by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and

 

(v)           the
location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements
of Section 2.04.

 

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing
is specified, then the requested Revolving Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect
to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s
duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise
each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

 

SECTION 2.04.            Funding
of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer
of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated
by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly
crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in Illinois
and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

 

(b)            Unless the Administrative
Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available
to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has
made such share available on such date in accordance with

 

    	20

    	 

    

 

paragraph (a) of this
Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the 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 applicable Lender and
the 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 the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to
the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined
by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower,
the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall
constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

 

SECTION 2.05.            Interest
Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case
of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower
may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving
Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The 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.

 

(b)            To make an election
pursuant to this Section, the 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 the Borrower were requesting a 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, telecopy or facsimile (or e-mail with a PDF copy attached) to the Administrative Agent
of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

 

(c)            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 options are being elected with respect to different
portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified
pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below 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
the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

 

    	21

    	 

    

 

(iv)         if
the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar 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”.

 

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar
Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one
month’s duration.

 

(d)           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)           If the Borrower
fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing
shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as
an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii)
unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

 

SECTION 2.06.            Termination
and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

 

(b)           The Borrower may
at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments
shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate
or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.08, the
Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments.

 

(c)           The Borrower shall
notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section
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 Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination
of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities,
in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the 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. Each reduction of
the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.

 

    	22

    	 

    

  

SECTION 2.07.            Repayment of
Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the Maturity Date.

 

(b)            Each Lender shall
maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender
resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from
time to time hereunder.

 

(c)            The Administrative
Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the thereof and the Interest
Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from
the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the
account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

 

(d)            The entries made
in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence
and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to
maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(e)            Any Lender may
request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note (each, a “Note”). In such event, the
Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such
Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at
all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the
payee named therein (or, if such Notes is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

 

SECTION 2.08.            Prepayment
of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part,
subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section.

 

(b)            The Borrower shall
notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or facsimile (or e-mail with a PDF copy attached)) of any prepayment
hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business
Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City
time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date
and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is
given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.06, then such
notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.06. Promptly following
receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents
thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an

 

 

    	23

    	 

    

  

advance of a Borrowing
of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in
the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.10.

 

SECTION 2.09.            Fees.
(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue
at the Applicable Rate on the daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective
Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the
last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on
the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any commitment fees accruing after the date on which the
Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All commitment 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)            The Borrower agrees
to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

 

(c)            All fees payable
hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the
case of commitment fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

 

SECTION 2.10.            Interest.
(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

 

(b)            The Loans comprising
each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus
the Applicable Rate.

 

(c)            Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not
paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, upon the request of the Required Lenders 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 the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. If any
other Event of Default hereunder shall arise, then upon the request of the Required Lenders, all principal of and interest on any
Loan, and any other fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder shall bear interest at 2% plus the rate applicable to
ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section, until such Event of Default is cured or is waived.

 

(d)            Accrued interest
on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided
that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) 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 an ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest
on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall

 

    	24

    	 

    

 

be payable on the date
of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current
Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

 

(e)          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 shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days
in a leap 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, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent,
and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

SECTION 2.11.            Alternate
Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

 

(a)          the Administrative
Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist
for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

 

(b)          the Administrative
Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, 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 Borrower and
the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower
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 Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if
any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing provided
that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall
be permitted.

 

SECTION 2.12.            Increased
Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

 

(i)            impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance
charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any
such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate);

 

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

 

(iii)          subject
any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition
of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal,

 

    	25

    	 

    

 

letters of credit,
commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

 

and the result of any of the foregoing
shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any
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 or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender
or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient,
as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

 

(b)            If any Lender
determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate
of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of
this Agreement, the Commitments of 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 or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower
will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company
for any such reduction suffered.

 

(c)            A certificate
of a Lender setting forth 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 Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

 

(d)            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 Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this
Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower
of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation
therefor; provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive,
then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 

SECTION 2.13.            Break
Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an
Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.08),
(b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure
to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless
of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.08(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any
Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant
to Section 2.16, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable
to such 

 

    	26

    	 

    

  

event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount
determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount
of such Eurodollar Loan had such event not occurred, at
the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Eurodollar Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the
last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period
that would have been the Interest Period for such Eurodollar 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 dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. 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 Borrower
and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within 10 days after receipt thereof.

 

SECTION 2.14.            Taxes.

 

(a)            Withholding
Taxes; Gross-Up. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made
without deduction or withholding for any Taxes except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in good
faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by
a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely
pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such
Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or
withholding has been made (including such deduction and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14),
the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

 

(b)            Payment of
Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

 

(c)            Evidence of
Payment. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section
2.14, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent.

 

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

 

    	27

    	 

    

 

delivered to the Borrower
by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender,
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

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

 

(f)            Status
of Lenders.

 

(i)           Any
Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will
permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether
or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set
forth in Section 2.14 U.S. (f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment
such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially
prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

 

(ii)          Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

 

(A)            any
Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the

 

    	28

    	 

    

 

Administrative
Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

 

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

 

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

 

(2)            in the
case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, executed originals
of IRS Form W-8ECI;

 

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

 

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

 

    	29

    	 

    

 

U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(g)            Treatment of
Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of
any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant
to this Section 2.14), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses
(including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified
party the amount paid over

 

    	30

    	 

    

 

pursuant to this paragraph
(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified
party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph
(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g)
the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would
have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise
imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph (g)
shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to
its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

 

(h)            Survival.
Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent
or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

 

(i)             Defined Terms.
For purposes of this Section 2.14, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

 

SECTION 2.15.            Payments
Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder
(whether of principal, interest, fees or of amounts payable under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m.,
New York City 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 next succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices
at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03 shall be made directly
to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the 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. All payments hereunder shall be
made in dollars.

 

(b)            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, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably
among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second,
towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal
then due to such parties.

 

(c)            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 Loans resulting

 

    	31

    	 

    

 

in such Lender receiving
payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its 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 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 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 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 Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which
the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively
do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against
the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor
of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

 

(d)            Unless the Administrative
Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for
the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the
Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the
Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the 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,
at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation.

 

(e)            If any Lender
shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(b), 2.15(d) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative
Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative
Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied
obligations are fully paid, and/or hold such amounts in a segregated account over which the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive
control as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in each
case, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

 

SECTION 2.16.            Mitigation
Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if the Borrower
is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.14, 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

 

    	32

    	 

    

 

or assignment (i) would
eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.14, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject
such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby
agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

 

(b)            If any Lender
requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender,
then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender
to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in 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); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (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 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 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, 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 Borrower to require such assignment and delegation
cease to apply.

 

SECTION 2.17.            Defaulting
Lenders.

 

Notwithstanding any provision
of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so
long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

 

(a)            fees shall cease
to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a); and

 

(b)           such Defaulting
Lender shall not have the right to vote on any issue on which voting is required (other than to the extent provided in Section
9.02(b)) and the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether
the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder; provided that, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02,
this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring
the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby.

 

SECTION 2.18.            Increase
of Commitments.

 

(a)            The
Borrower may, from time to time, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request that the aggregate Commitments be increased by
an amount that will not result in

 

    	33

    	 

    

 

the aggregate Commitments
exceeding $200,000,000; provided that each increase in aggregate Commitments under this Section shall be in a minimum amount
of $25,000,000. Each such notice shall set forth the requested amount of the increase in the Commitments and the date on which
such increase is to become effective. The Borrower shall have the right, but not the obligation, to arrange for one or more commercial
banks or other financial institutions (any such bank or other financial institution being called an “Augmenting Lender”),
which may include any Lender, to extend Commitments or increase their existing Commitments in an aggregate amount up to, but not
greater than, the requested increase, provided that each Augmenting Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder (i) shall
extend a new Commitment of not less than $5,000,000, (ii) shall execute all such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall
reasonably specify to evidence its status as a Lender hereunder and (iii) shall be consented to by the Administrative Agent (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Such increases and such new Commitments shall become effective on the date
agreed to by the Borrower, the Augmenting Lenders and the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the
aggregate Commitments (or in the Commitment of any Lender) shall become effective under this paragraph unless, on the date of such
increase, the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such paragraphs to a Loan being deemed
to be references to such increase) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date
and executed by an Executive Officer of the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything else in the foregoing, no Lender shall become an
Augmenting Lender without such Lender’s consent.

 

(b)            Upon the effectiveness
of any increase pursuant to this Section 2.18 of the aggregate Commitments and any resulting adjustment in the Applicable Percentages,
the Lenders and the Augmenting Lenders will purchase from each other and sell to each other outstanding Loans sufficient to cause
the outstanding Loans of each Lender and Augmenting Lender to equal its Applicable Percentage (as so adjusted) of the aggregate
outstanding Revolving Loans. Such purchase and sale shall be made pursuant to Section 9.04 except that no minimum amount shall
be required, no processing fee shall be charged and, if any Lender shall suffer a loss or incur an expense as a result of the effectiveness
of such purchase or sale being during an Interest Period, the Borrower shall reimburse such Lender the amount of such loss or expense.
Each such Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a certificate setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for determining the
amount to be paid to it hereunder.

delivery and performance do not and will not contravene or conflict with, or create a Lien or right of termination or acceleration
under, any Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation binding upon the Borrower or such Subsidiaries. This Agreement and each

of business (referred to herein as “Ordinary Course Litigation”), no claim, litigation (including, without
limitation, derivative actions), arbitration, governmental investigation or proceeding or inquiry is pending or threatened against

and there is no basis known to the Borrower for any of the foregoing. Other than any liability incident to such claims, litigation

T, U and X. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities,
in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock. None of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries
or any Person acting on their behalf has taken or will take action to cause the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement
or the Note, the making or existence of the Loans or the use of proceeds of the Loans to violate Regulations T, U or X of the Board.

 

SECTION 3.07.            Proceeds.
The proceeds of the Loans will be used for general corporate purposes. None of such proceeds will be used in violation of applicable

SECTION 3.11.            Insurance
Licenses. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.11, to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, no license (including, without
limitation, licenses or certificates of authority from applicable insurance departments), permits or authorizations to transact

ARTICLE
VIII

The Administrative Agent

 

Each of the Lenders hereby
irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent 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, together with such actions
and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

 

    	50

    	 

    

 

The bank 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 bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money
to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower 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. 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 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, the Administrative
Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank 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 Borrower 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, (ii) the contents of
any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness
or genuineness of this Agreement 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 Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action
taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

 

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. 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

 

    	51

    	 

    

 

provisions of the preceding
paragraphs 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
upon 10 business days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have
the right, in consultation with the Borrower, 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 Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those
payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the 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.

 

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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 9.02.         Waivers;
Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance
of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the 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
the 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 instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether
the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

 

(b)          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 Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required
Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of
such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal

amount of any Loan or
reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected
thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal 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 affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.15(b) or (c) in a manner that would
alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, or (v) change any of the provisions
of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage
of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without
the written consent of each Lender; 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. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent, the Arrangers and any of their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel
for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation
and administration of this Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or
any Lender, including the 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, including its rights under this Section, or
in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring
or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

 

(b)          The
Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers 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 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 (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 (iii) any actual or prospective 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 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. This Section 9.3(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other
than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

 

(c)          To
the extent that the Borrower 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

 

    	54

    	 

    

 

severally agrees to pay
to the Administrative Agent 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)          To
the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and 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)          All
amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 Business Days after written demand therefor.

 

SECTION 9.04.                 Successors
and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not 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 the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) 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.

 

(b)          (i)          Subject
to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible
Institution) 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
Borrower, provided that, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment unless it shall have objected thereto
by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided,
further, that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved
Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; and

 

(B)         the
Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Commitment
to an assignee that is a Lender with a Commitment immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment.

 

    	55

    	 

    

 

As used herein, “Ineligible Institution”
means a (a) natural person or (b) holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit
of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof; provided that, such holding company, investment vehicle or trust shall not
constitute an Ineligible Institution if it (x) has not been established for the primary purpose of acquiring any Loans or Commitments,
(y) is managed by a professional advisor, who is not such natural person or a relative thereof, having significant experience in
the business of making or purchasing commercial loans, and (z) has assets greater than $25,000,000 and a significant part of its
activities consist of making or purchasing commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business;
provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, any Person (other than a Lender) shall be an Ineligible Institutions
if after giving effect any proposed assignment to such Person, such Person would hold more than 25% of the then outstanding Revolving
Credit Exposure or Commitments, as the case may be.

 

(ii)         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 or Loans, 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 Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that
no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

 

(B)         each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part 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 in which the assignee
designates one or more Credit Contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information
about the Borrower and its related parties or its securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance
with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

 

(iii)        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

 

    	56

    	 

    

 

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 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under
this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 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.

 

(iv)        The
Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, 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, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person
whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding
notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and
from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(v)         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 Section 2.04(b), 2.15(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)          Any
Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other
entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible Institution, 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 shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely
responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of

 

    	57

    	 

    

 

such obligations and
(C) the Borrower, 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. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which
a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to
approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument
may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described
in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled
to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements
under Section 2.14(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.14(f) shall be delivered to the participating
Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.15 and 2.16 as if
it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Sections 2.12 or 2.14, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except
to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired
the applicable participation.. 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 2.15(c) as though it were a Lender.
Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on
which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s
interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided
that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the
identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other
obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment,
Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries
in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded
in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to
the contrary.

 

(d)          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 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 Borrower 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

 

    	58

    	 

    

 

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 2.12, 2.13, 2.14
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, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement
or any provision hereof.

 

SECTION 9.06.         Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness. 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,
the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreement with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute
the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings,
oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective
when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts
hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart
of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed
signature page 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 the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the 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) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by
the law of the State of Illinois.

 

    	59

    	 

    

 

(b)          The
Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Circuit
Court of the State of Illinois sitting in Cook County, Illinois and of the United States District Court for the Northern District
of Illinois, 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 Illinois 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 the Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action
or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

 

(c)          The
Borrower 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.

 

(d)          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.         Headings.
Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this
Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

 

SECTION 9.12.         Confidentiality.
(a) Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below),
except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including
accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed
of the confidential nature of such

 

    	60

    	 

    

 

Information and instructed
to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent
required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement,
(v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the
enforcement of rights hereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section,
to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to
the Borrower and its obligations, (vii) with the consent of the Borrower or (viii) to the extent such Information (A) becomes
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information”
means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that
is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower; provided
that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the
time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section
shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain
the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

 

(b)          EACH
LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 9.12(a) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL
NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS
DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC
INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

 

(c)          ALL
INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO,
OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION
ABOUT THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR ITS SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN
MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

 

SECTION 9.13.         Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan,
together with all fees, charges

 

    	61

    	 

    

 

and other amounts which
are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed
the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or
reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan
hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful,
the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation
of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall
be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal
Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

 

SECTION 9.14.         USA
PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into
law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of
the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name
and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

 

SECTION 9.15.         No
Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, the Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection
therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an
arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers,
on the other hand, and the Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and
conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification
hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers
each is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Borrower or any
of its Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (iii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger
has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower with respect to any of the
transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification
hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or any Arranger has advised or is currently
advising the Borrower or its Affiliates on other matters) and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation
to the Borrower or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth
herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the Administrative Agent and each Arranger and its respective Affiliates may be engaged
in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither
the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency
or fiduciary relationship; and (v) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has provided and will not provide any legal,
accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver
or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory
and

 

    	62

    	 

    

 

tax advisors to the extent
it has deemed appropriate. The Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it
may have against the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary
duty.
