Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent entered into that certain Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 11, 2013 (as amended, restated or otherwise modified, the “Existing Credit Agreement”),
pursuant to which the Existing Lenders agreed to make certain credit facilities available to the Company in accordance with the terms thereof. 

B.        The Company, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent desire to amend and
restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

follows: 
 ARTICLE I. 

DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING TERMS 

1.01     Amendment and Restatement.     In order to facilitate this
amendment and restatement and otherwise to effectuate the desires of the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree: 

(a)        The Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that, on
the Closing Date, the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are amended and restated in their entirety by the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, and the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit
Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be superseded by this Agreement.

 (b)        Notwithstanding this amendment
and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement, including anything in this Section 1.01, and of any related “Loan Documents” (as such term is defined in the Existing Credit Agreement and referred to herein, individually or
collectively, as the “Prior Loan Documents”), (i) all Obligations (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and other Prior Loan Documents (the “Existing
Obligations”) shall continue as Obligations hereunder to the extent not repaid on the Closing Date, and (ii) each of this Agreement and the Notes and any other Loan Document (as defined herein) that is amended and restated in
connection with this Agreement is given as a substitution for, and not as a payment of, the indebtedness, liabilities and Existing Obligations of the Company under the Existing Credit Agreement or any other Prior Loan Document and (iii) neither
the execution and delivery of such documents nor the consummation of any other transaction contemplated hereunder is intended to constitute a novation of the Existing Credit Agreement or of any of the other Prior Loan Documents or any obligations
thereunder. On the Closing Date: (1) all Loans owing by the Company and outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue as Loans hereunder and shall constitute advances hereunder, (2) all Base Rate Loans under the Existing

the Administrative Agent Loan Notices selecting the interest rates for existing Loans. 

(c)        The parties hereby agree that, on the Closing Date, the Commitments shall
be as set forth in Schedule 2.01 and the outstanding principal amount of any Loans shall be reallocated in accordance with such Commitments and the requisite assignments shall be deemed to be made in such amounts by and between the Lenders
and from each Lender to each other Lender, with the same force and effect as if such assignments were evidenced by applicable Assignments and Assumptions (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under the Existing Credit Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.10 of the Existing Credit Agreement or Section 10.06 of this Agreement, no other documents or instruments, including any Assignment and Assumption, shall be executed in
connection with these assignments (all of which requirements are hereby waived), and such assignments shall be deemed to be made with all applicable representations, warranties and covenants as if evidenced by an Assignment and Assumption. On the
Closing Date, the Lenders shall make all necessary cash settlement in full with each other Lender (and with the Existing Lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement whose Commitments thereunder are being terminated), either directly or through the
Administrative Agent, as the Administrative Agent may direct or approve, with respect to all assignments, reallocations and other changes in the Commitments (as such term is defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) such that after giving effect to

ARTICLE II. 
 THE
COMMITMENTS 
 2.01      Loans.  Each Lender hereby severally agrees, on
any Business Day during the Availability Period, to make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a “Loan”) to the Company from time to time on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; provided, however,
that after giving effect to any Borrowing, (a) the sum of the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments and (b) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans of any Lender

  
 19 

 
shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment. Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company may borrow under this
Section 2.01, prepay pursuant to Section 2.03 and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.01. Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein. 

2.02      Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans. 

(a)        Each Borrowing, each conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, and
each continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than
(i) 9:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or of any conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) 9:00 a.m. on the requested
date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. Each telephonic notice by the Company pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Loan Notice, appropriately completed and
signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Each Borrowing of or conversion
to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Each Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Company is requesting a Borrowing, a conversion of
Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to
be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Company fails to specify a
Type of Loan in a Loan Notice or if the Company fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans
shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Company requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Loan
Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. 

(b)        Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender of the amount of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Company, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any
automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in the preceding subsection. In the case of a Borrowing, each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the
Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial
Borrowing, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Company in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Company on the books of
Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Company. 

  
 20 

 (c)        Except as otherwise provided
herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be made as, converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans
without the consent of the Required Lenders. 
 (d)        The Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent
shall notify the Company and the Lenders of any change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change. 

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

 2.03      Prepayments. 

(a)        The Company may, upon written notice or telephonic notice confirmed in
writing to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such written or telephonic notice must be received by the Administrative
Agent not later than 9:00 a.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal
amount of $3,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each of clause
(ii) and (iii) above, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are
to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender (by telecopy, telex, other electronic means or telephone) of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a
Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Subject to Section 2.13, each such prepayment shall be applied
to the Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages. 

(b)        If for any reason the Total Outstandings at any time exceed the Aggregate
Commitments then in effect, then the Company shall immediately prepay Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. 

2.04      Termination or Reduction of Commitments.  The Company may, upon
notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Commitments, or from time to time 

  
 21 

 
permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments; provided that (a) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 9:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to the
date of termination or reduction, (b) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (c) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate
Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Outstandings exceed the Aggregate Commitments. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or
reduction of the Aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable Percentage. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the
Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. 

2.05     Repayment of Loans.  The Company shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity
Date the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding on such date. 
 2.06     Interest.

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

(b)        (i)        If any amount of
principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a
fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

(ii)       If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by the
Company under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear
interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

(iii)      Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default
exists, the Company shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

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

  
 22 

 2.07     Fees. 

(a)        Commitment Fee.    The Company shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Commitments exceed the Total Outstandings.
The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day
of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change
in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. 

(b)        Other Fees.    (i)    The
Company shall pay to the applicable Arranger and the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders or for their own respective accounts, as applicable, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letters. Such fees shall be
fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 

(ii)       The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent such fees as
may from time to time be agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agent. 

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

2.09      Evidence of Debt.  The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced
by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error
of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Company and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Company hereunder to pay any
amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the
Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Company shall execute and deliver to such Lender 

  
 23 

 
(through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon
the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. 

2.10     Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. 

(a)        General.     All payments to be made by the
Company shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or set-off. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Company hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the
account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly
distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent
after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Subject to the provisions in the definition of “Interest Period”, if any payment to be made by the
Company shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 

(b)        (i)    Funding by Lenders; Presumption by
Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 11:00 a.m. on the
date of such 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 Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to the Company 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 shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith
on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Company to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent at the
greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative
Agent in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay
such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, then the Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for
each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Company to but excluding the date of payment 

  
 24 

 
to the Administrative Agent at the interest rate applicable to the Borrowing. If the Company and the applicable Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an
overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Company the amount of such interest paid by the Company for such period. Any payment by the Company shall be without prejudice to any claim the Company may have against a
Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

(ii)       Payments by Company; Presumptions by Administrative
Agent.    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Company will
not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company 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 Company
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, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from
and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry
rules on interbank compensation. 
 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Company with respect to any
amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 

(c)        Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent.    If
any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Company by the Administrative Agent
because the conditions to the applicable Borrowing set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such
Lender, without interest. 
 (d)        Obligations of Lenders
Several.    The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment
under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or
to make its payment under Section 10.04(c). 
 (e)        Funding
Source.    Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds
for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 
 2.11      Sharing of Payments by
Lenders.   If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest 

  
 25 

 
on any of the Loans made by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro
rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other
Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and
other amounts owing them, provided that: 
 (i)        if any
such participations 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 Section shall not be construed to apply
to (x) any payment made by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as
consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). 

The Company 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 Company rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Company in the amount of
such participation. 
 2.12     Increase in Commitments. 

(a)        Request for Increase.     Provided there
exists no Default, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lender(s) or potential lender(s) (which such potential lender(s) shall be Eligible Assignees hereunder) which the Company, in consultation with the
Administrative Agent, determines to request to make all or a portion of such increase), the Company may from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $250,000,000;
provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, and (ii) the Company may increase the Aggregate Commitments no more than ten (10) times. At the time of sending such notice, the
Company (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender or potential lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such
notice to the Lenders or potential lenders). 
 (b)        Lender Elections to
Increase.    Each Lender or potential lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment (provided, however, that no Lender has any
obligation to increase its Commitment, and each Lender may grant or withhold its consent to any such increase in its Commitment in accordance with this Section 2.12 in its sole discretion) or agrees to participate in such increase, as
applicable, and, if so, by what amount. Any Lender or potential lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. 

  
 26 

 (c)        Notification by
Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders.    The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase
and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Company may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel. 

(d)        Effective Date and Allocations.   If the Aggregate
Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Company shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date. 

(e)        Conditions to Effectiveness of
Increase.     As a condition precedent to such increase, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Company dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by a Responsible Officer of the
Company certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V (except the representation and warranty contained in Section 5.09) and the other Loan
Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all
material respects as of such earlier date, and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists or shall result from such increase. The Company shall prepay any Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required
pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section. 

(f)        Conflicting Provisions.    This Section shall
supersede any provisions in Section 2.11 or 10.01 to the contrary. 

2.13      Defaulting Lenders. 

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

(i)     Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve
or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01. 

(ii)     Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or
other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or

otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be
determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of
Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the
Administrative Agent and the Company, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts
owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so
long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal
amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment
shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting
Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(iii)      Certain Fees.   That Defaulting Lender shall
not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.07(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Company shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required
to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 
 (b)       Defaulting Lender
Cure.   If the Company and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties
hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other
actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided
that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Company while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the
affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

 ARTICLE III. 

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 

3.01     Taxes. 

(a)       Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of
Taxes. 
 (i)         Any and all payments by or on account
of any obligation of the Company hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes; provided, however, that if applicable Laws require the Company or the
Administrative Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such Laws as determined by the Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, upon the basis of the information and documentation
to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below. For purposes of this Section 3.01 the term “Laws” includes FATCA. 

(ii)        If the Company or the Administrative Agent shall be
required by the Internal Revenue Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall
withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Administrative Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the Company or the Administrative
Agent, as the case may be, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Person in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. 

(b)       Payment of Other Taxes by the Company.    Without
limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Company shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Person in accordance with applicable Laws. 

(c)       Tax Indemnifications. 

(i)         Without limiting the provisions of subsection
(a) or (b) above, the Company shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and any penalties, interest and reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Person. The Company shall also, and does hereby indemnify the

  
 29 

 
Administrative Agent, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative
Agent as required by clause (ii) of this subsection; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to the Administrative Agent, be available to the extent that such amount is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final
and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the Company 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. 

(ii)        Without limiting the provisions of subsection
(a) or (b) above, each Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Company and the Administrative Agent, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor, against any and all Taxes and any and all
related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Company or the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Company or the Administrative Agent
by any Governmental Person as a result of the failure by such Lender to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender to the Company or the Administrative Agent
pursuant to subsection (e). Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the
Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). The agreements in this clause (ii) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the
termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. 

(d)        Evidence of Payments.    Upon request of the
Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by the Company or by the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Person as provided in this Section 3.01, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Company, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Person evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such
payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be. 

(e)        Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation. 

(i)         Each Lender shall deliver to the Company and to the
Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Laws or when reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the taxing
authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (A) whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document
are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s 

  
 30 

 
entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by the Company pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to
establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction. 

(ii)         Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if
the Company is resident for tax purposes in the United States: 

(A)         Any Lender that is a “United States
person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent executed originals of IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable
Laws or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting
requirements; and 
 (B)         Each Foreign Lender that is
entitled under the Internal Revenue Code or any applicable treaty or intergovernmental agreement to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Company
and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the
Company or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(I)        executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, if
applicable) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, 

(II)      executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI, 

(III)     executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY and all required supporting
documentation; 
 (IV)     in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits
of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal
Revenue Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the
Internal Revenue Code and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W- 8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, if applicable), or 

(V)      executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as
a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit the Company or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be,
to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

  
 31 

 (iii)      If a payment made to a
Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States 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 Internal Revenue Code and any regulations thereunder, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the
Company or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the
Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company 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 (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under
FATCA, from and after the effective date of this Agreement, the Company and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and all the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered
obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i). 

(iv)     Each Lender shall promptly (A) notify the Company and the
Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (B) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender,
and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any jurisdiction that the Company or the Administrative Agent make any withholding or deduction for taxes from
amounts payable to such Lender. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly update such form or
certification and promptly deliver such form to the Company and the Administrative Agent or promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(f)        Treatment of Certain Refunds.   Unless required by
applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from the funds paid for the
account of such Lender. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Company or with respect to which the Company
has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Company an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the

  
 32 

 
Company under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable and actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or
such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Person with respect to such refund), provided that the Company, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender,
agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Company (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Person) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is
required to repay such refund to such Governmental Person. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems
confidential) to the Company or any other Person. 

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

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

  
 33 

 
the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its Eurodollar Rate Loans or with respect to determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate,
if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of the Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender. 

3.03      Inability to Determine Rates. If in connection with any request for a
Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (a) the Administrative Agent determines that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and
Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an
existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (b) the Required Lenders determine that for any reason the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost
to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the
affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in
determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of,
conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the
amount specified therein. 
 3.04      Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate
Loans. 
 (a)        Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law
shall: 
 (i)        impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve,
special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except, in all cases, any reserve requirement contemplated by
Section 3.04(e)); 
 (ii)        subject any Lender to
any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except, in all cases, for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered
by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender); or 

(iii)      impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other
condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing
shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, continuing, converting to or maintaining any Loan the interest on which is determined by 

  
 34 

 
reference to the Eurodollar Rate (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender (with a copy of such request to the Administrative Agent), the Company will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered. Each Lender agrees to notify the Company of the occurrence of such an increased cost event promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof. 

(b)        Capital Requirements.  If any Lender determines that any
Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s
capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding
company could have achieved but for such Change in Law taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, the Lender shall deliver to the Company a statement
of the amount necessary to compensate such Lender for the reduction in the rate of return on its capital attributable to such commitments (the “Capital Compensation Amount”). The Lender shall determine the Capital Compensation
Amount in good faith, using reasonable attribution and averaging methods. The Lender shall from time to time notify the Company of the amount so determined. As soon as practicable after any Change in Law, each Lender seeking compensation under this
Section shall submit to the Company estimates of the Capital Compensation Amounts that would be payable as a function of such Lender’s commitments hereunder. 

(c)        Certificates for Reimbursement.   A certificate, in
reasonable detail, 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 subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to
the Company shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof. 

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

(e)        Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.  The Company shall pay
to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required by applicable Laws to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency
liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination
shall be conclusive), which shall 

  
 35 

 
be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Company shall have received at least 30 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 30 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 30 days from receipt of such notice. 

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

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

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

(c)        any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day
of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 10.13; 
 including any loss of
anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Company shall also pay any
customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. 
 For purposes of calculating
amounts payable by the Company to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the
London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 

3.06      Mitigation Obligations.    If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 3.04, or the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Person for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice
pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall, as applicable, use its reasonable best efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to
assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01
or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not
otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. 

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

5.01      Organization and Powers.    The Company is a corporation
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware; and, except for changes in the ordinary course of business or as permitted or contemplated by this Agreement, each of the Material Subsidiaries is a
corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation; and each has all requisite corporate power and authority to own and operate its properties, to carry on its business as now
conducted and proposed to be conducted and, in the case of the Company, to enter into this Agreement and each Guarantor Subordination Agreement, to issue the Notes and to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. 

5.02      Good Standing.  The Company and, except for changes in the ordinary
course of business or as permitted or contemplated by this Agreement, each Material Subsidiary is in good standing wherever necessary to carry on its present business and operations, except in jurisdictions in which the failure to be in good
standing has or will have no Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.03      Material
Subsidiaries.  Except for changes in the ordinary course of business or as permitted or contemplated by this Agreement, Schedule 5.03 hereto correctly sets forth the name, jurisdiction of incorporation and ownership interest of
the Company in each of its Material Subsidiaries as of the date hereof. 

5.04      Authorization of Borrowing.  The execution, delivery and performance
of each Loan Document to which it is a party, the acknowledgement of each Guarantor Subordination Agreement and the issuance, delivery and payment of the Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action by the Company. 

5.05      No Conflict.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Company
of this Agreement, the acknowledgement of each Guarantor Subordination Agreement and the issuance, delivery and payment of the Notes do not and will not (a) violate the Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Amended and Restated Bylaws of the
Company, (b) violate any provision of law applicable to the Company, or any material order, judgment or decree of any court or other agency of government binding on the Company, the violation of which would result in a Material Adverse Effect,
(c) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any material Contractual Obligation of the Company, (d) result in or require the creation or imposition of any material lien,
security interest, charge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of its material properties or assets, or (e) require any approval of stockholders or any approval or consent of any Person under any Contractual Obligation of the
Company. 

  
 39 

 5.06      Governmental
Consents.    The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of each Loan Document to which it is a party and each agreement, document, or instrument required hereunder, the acknowledgment of each Guarantor
Subordination Agreement and the issuance, delivery and payment of the Notes do not and will not require any registration with, consent or approval of, or notice to, or other action to, with or by, any United States federal, state or other
governmental authority or regulatory body or other such person. 
 5.07      Binding
Obligation.   This Agreement is, and each other Loan Document to which it is a party, when executed and delivered hereunder will be, the legally valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance
with their respective terms, except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws or equitable principles relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally. 

5.08      Financial Condition.   The Company has heretofore delivered to
the Lenders a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, and related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company and its
Subsidiaries for such fiscal year, audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and all other financial statements required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01. All such statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP and fairly present
the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at the date thereof and the consolidated results of operations and statement of cash flow of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the period then ended. Neither the Company
nor any of its Subsidiaries has any material Contingent Obligation, liability for taxes or long-term lease which as of the date of this Agreement, individually or in the aggregate, would, if it became absolute, result in a Material Adverse Effect
which is not reflected in the financial statements delivered prior to the date hereof or in the notes thereto. 

5.09      Changes, Etc.  Since December 31, 2014, there has been no event
or events that have, either individually or in the aggregate, resulted in a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.10      Title to Properties.  The Company and its Subsidiaries have good,
sufficient and legal title to all the properties and assets reflected in the consolidated balance sheet referred to in Section 5.08 except as set forth in said balance sheet or in the notes thereto, except for assets acquired or disposed
of in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement since December 31, 2014, and except for immaterial defects in title as could not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.11      Litigation; Adverse Facts.  Except as set forth on Schedule
5.11 hereto, there is no action, suit, proceeding or arbitration (whether or not purportedly on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) at law or in equity or before or by any United States federal, foreign, state, municipal or other
governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Company’s or
such Subsidiaries’ properties which, in the reasonable judgment of the Company and its executive officers (assuming adverse determination of facts which the Company in good faith believes it would not successfully disprove, and considering
damages which in their best judgment is the maximum that would be awarded upon, and the likelihood of, an adverse determination of the claim, or the amount which reflects their best judgment as to that required to be paid to settle the

  
 40 

 
claims) would result in a Material Adverse Effect and there is no basis known to such executive officers for any such action, suit or proceeding. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
is (i) in violation of any applicable Law which would result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) subject to or in default with respect to any final judgment, writ, injunction, decree, rule or regulation of any court or United States
federal, foreign, state, municipal or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, which would result in a Material Adverse Effect. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation
pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which provides a reasonable basis for questioning the validity or the enforceability of any Loan Document. 

5.12      Payment of Taxes.  All tax returns and reports of the Company and its
Material Subsidiaries required to be filed by any of them have been timely filed, and all taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges upon the Company and its Subsidiaries and upon their respective properties, assets, income and
franchises which are due and payable have been paid when due and payable or bonded against, except to the extent permitted by Section 6.05. The Company knows of no proposed tax assessment against it or any of its Subsidiaries that would
result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.13      Agreements.  Neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to or is subject to any material agreement or instrument or charter or other internal restriction which results in a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.14      Performance.  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in
default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any Contractual Obligation of the Company, and no condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both,
would constitute such a default, except, in any such case, where the consequences, direct or indirect, of such default or defaults, if any, would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.15      Governmental Regulation.  Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under the Federal Power Act, the Interstate Commerce Act or the Investment Company Act of 1940 or to any United States federal, foreign, or state statute or regulation limiting its ability in any material way to
incur Indebtedness for money borrowed. 
 5.16      Employee Benefit Plans. 

(a)        The Company and each of its ERISA Affiliates is in compliance in all
material respects with any applicable provisions of ERISA and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to all Plans. Each Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has
received a favorable determination letter from the IRS or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the IRS with respect thereto and, to the best knowledge of the Company, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause the
loss of, such qualification, except to the extent any failure to obtain or apply for such determination letter, or any such disqualification, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and each ERISA
Affiliate have made all required contributions to each Plan subject to the Pension Funding Rules, and no application for a funding 

  
 41 

 
waiver pursuant to the Pension Funding Rules has been made with respect to any Plan, except to the extent any failure to make such contributions, or any such funding waiver, would not reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b)        There are no
pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Person, with respect to any Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There has been no
prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

(c)        (i) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur;
(ii) no Pension Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability in excess of $125,000,000; (iii) neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any
Pension Plan (other than premiums due and not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA) in excess of $125,000,000; (iv) neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has participated in or participates in any Multiemployer Plan the withdrawal
from which would reasonably be expected to result in liability to the Company or an ERISA Affiliate in excess of $125,000,000; and (v) neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction subject to Section 4069 or
4212(c) of ERISA which would reasonably be expected to result in liability to the Company or an ERISA Affiliate in excess of $125,000,000. 

5.17      Environmental Matters.    The Company conducts in the
ordinary course of business a review of the effect of existing Environmental Laws and existing Environmental Claims on its business, operations and properties, and as a result thereof the Company has reasonably concluded that such Environmental Laws
and Environmental Claims could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.18      Disclosure.   No representation or warranty of the Company
contained in this Agreement or any other document, certificate or written statement furnished to the Lenders by the Company since December 31, 2014, for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as of the date of
this Agreement contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact (known to the executive officers of the Company in the case of any document or fact not furnished by it) necessary in order to make the statements
contained herein or therein not misleading except to the extent that any such statement or omission that was untrue or misleading at the time made or that subsequently became untrue or misleading has been superseded or corrected by information
provided to the Lenders prior to the date of this Agreement. The projections and pro forma financial information contained in such written materials are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by the Company to be reasonable at the
time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results. There
is no fact known to the executive officers of the Company as of the date of this Agreement (other than matters of a general economic nature) which materially adversely affects the business, operations, property, assets or condition (financial or
otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, which has not been disclosed herein or in the written materials referred to in Section 5.08 other than as disclosed in writing to the Lenders on or before the date hereof.

  
 42 

 5.19      Subordination
Agreements.      No Guarantor has any material outstanding Indebtedness to any Affiliate of the Company which has not signed a Guarantor Subordination Agreement, and as of the date hereof, no Guarantor has any
outstanding Guarantor Subordination Agreement. 
 5.20      OFAC.  Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor, to the knowledge of the Company and its Subsidiaries, any director, officer, employee, agent, affiliate or representative thereof, is an individual or entity that is, or is owned or controlled by any

List, or any similar list enforced by any other relevant sanctions authority in a jurisdiction in which the Loan Parties or any of the Material Subsidiaries conduct business or (iii) located, organized or resident in a Designated Jurisdiction.

 5.21      Anti-Corruption Laws.   Except to the extent that the
failure to do so (i) would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) would not result in any non-compliance by, or other adverse impact on any of the Lenders, Administrative Agent or Arrangers with respect to
the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the UK Bribery Act 2010, and other similar anti-corruption legislation in other jurisdictions, the Loan Parties or any of the Material Subsidiaries have conducted their businesses in
compliance with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the UK Bribery Act 2010, and other similar anti-corruption legislation in other jurisdictions in which the Loan Parties or any of the Material Subsidiaries conduct business,
and have instituted and maintained policies and procedures designed to promote and achieve compliance with such laws.

 ARTICLE IX. 

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

9.01      Appointment and Authority.  Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably
appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the
Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the
Company shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 

  
 54 

 9.02      Rights as a Lender.  The
Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or
“Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits
from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent
hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 
 9.03      Exculpatory
Provisions.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 

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

(c)        shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the 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
(i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as
provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall
be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Company or a Lender. 

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 

  
 55 

 
Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to
the Administrative Agent. 
 9.04     Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or
intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone
and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction
of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative
Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel,
accountants or experts. 
 9.05     Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative
Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent
may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful
misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents. 
 9.06     Resignation of Administrative
Agent.   The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the
Company, to appoint a successor, which shall be (a) a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, and (b) consented to by the Company at all times other than during the
existence of an Event of Default (such consent of the Company not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the
retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, after consulting with the Company, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint 

  
 56 

 
a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above, which successor shall be consented to by the Company at all times other than during the existence of an Event of
Default (such consent of the Company not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such
resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of
any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent
is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a
successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged
therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the
retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 

9.07     Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.    Each
Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
analysis 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 or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and
information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or
thereunder. 
 9.08     No Other Duties, Etc.  Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, none of the Arrangers, the Co-Syndication Agents or the Co-Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its
capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender. 

  
 57 

 9.09     Administrative Agent May File Proofs of
Claim.   In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be
due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Company) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a)        to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and
interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under
Sections 2.07 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

(b)        to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable
on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar
official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to
pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under
Sections 2.07 and 10.04. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative
Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in
respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 9.10     Guaranty
Matters.    The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a
result of a transaction permitted hereunder. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the
Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10.

other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the Company or any other Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Company or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may be, and
acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent

writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (ii) any Fee Letter may be amended, or rights
or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and
any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any
Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender
more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

10.02    Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication. 

(a)        Notices Generally.    Except in the case of
notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in subsection (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand

 59 

 Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or
registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given
at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient). Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in subsection (b) below, shall be effective as provided in such
subsection (b). 
 (b)        Electronic
Communications.   Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites)
pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of
receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Company may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures
approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 

Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address
shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided
that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, then such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and
(ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received by the intended recipient upon the posting thereof, provided that the intended recipient is immediately delivered notice of such posting at the
e-mail address most recently provided to the Administrative Agent by such recipient; provided further that if the relevant notice or communication is not posted during the normal business hours of the recipient, then such notice or
communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient. 

(c)        The Platform.      THE PLATFORM IS
PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR
OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY 

  
 60 

 
OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE
BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Company, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Company’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided,
however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Company, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 

(d)        Change of Address, Etc.  Each of the Company and the
Administrative Agent may change its address, facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, facsimile or telephone number for notices and
other communications hereunder by notice to the Company and the Administrative Agent. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective
address, contact name, telephone number, facsimile number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at
least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its
delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public
Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Company or its securities for purposes of United States federal or state securities laws. 

(e)        Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders.   The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Company even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein,
were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Company shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Company. All telephonic notices to and
other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 

10.03    No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement.      No failure
by any Guaranteed Party or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor 

  
 61 

 
shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and
remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively
by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit of all the Guaranteed Parties; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its
own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising set-off rights in accordance with
Section 10.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.11), or (c) any Lender form filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under
any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise
ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b) or (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.11, any Lender
may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders. 

10.04   Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

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

(b)        Indemnification by the
Company.        The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), 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 any
Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Company or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
agreement or instrument contemplated 

  
 62 

 
hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or, in the
case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including in respect of any matters addressed by Section 3.01 and
Section 10.06(c) or Section 10.06(d)), (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, 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, whether brought by a third party or by the Company or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not,
as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Company or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan
Document, if the Company or such other Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(c)        Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that the Company
for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing,
each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s 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 (or
any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection
(c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(d). 

(d)        Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.    To the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Company 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, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.
No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through
telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(e)        Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be
payable not later than 30 days after demand therefor. 

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

  
 63 

 10.05   Payments Set Aside.    To the
extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Company is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof
is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any
other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force
and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or
repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under
clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

10.06   Successors and Assigns.  

(a)        Successors and Assigns Generally.   The provisions of
this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Company may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of
subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the
restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person
(other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each
of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

  
 64 

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

(i)        Minimum Amounts. 

 (A)        in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining
amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 

 (B)        in any case not described in subsection
(b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning
Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as
of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee
Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met. 

(ii)       Proportionate Amounts.    Each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned. 

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

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

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

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

  
 65 

 (v)        No
Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon
becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) a natural person. 

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

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this
Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights
and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04,
3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Company (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or
transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 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 subsection (d) of this Section. 

(c)        Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for
this purpose as an agent of the Company (and such agency being subject to Section 9.03 hereof and solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office 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 Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
“Register”). The entries in the 

  
 66 

 
Register shall be conclusive, and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation or designation, of any Lender as a
Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(d)        Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the
consent of, or notice to, the Company or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans; provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations
under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the
Company (such agency relationship being subject to Section 9.03 hereunder), solely for tax purposes, 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. The Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility
for establishing or maintaining a Participant Register with respect to any Lender or Participant. 
 Any agreement or
instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement;
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that
affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a
Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a
Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender. 

(e)        Limitations upon Participant Rights.  A Participant shall
not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 than the applicable Lender would have 

  
 67 

 
been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written
consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless (i) in the case of a Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender, the Company is notified of the participation sold to such
Participant and (ii) such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender. 

(f)        Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or
assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank;
provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

10.07   Treatment of Certain Information;
Confidentiality.        Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to
its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Information and will agree to be obligated to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory
authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, provided that the
Administrative Agent or the Lender, as the case may be, shall disclose only the information required by such request and shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, notify the Company in advance of such disclosure so that the Company may seek
an appropriate protective order, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement in writing containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective
assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(c) or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any
swap or derivative transaction relating to the Company and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or
(y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company. 

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Company or any
Subsidiary relating to the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or
any Subsidiary. 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. 

  
 68 

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

10.08   Set-off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable Law and
not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of any Event of Default (after the giving of any notice and the expiration of any grace period contained in the definition thereof), each Lender, each of
its Affiliates and each subsequent holder of any Note is hereby authorized by the Company at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Company, or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to
appropriate any and all deposits (including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured but not including trust accounts) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Lender or
Affiliate (including, without limitation, branches or agencies of such Lender or Affiliate wherever located) or that subsequent holder to or for the credit or the account of the Company and to apply any such amounts in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2.11 irrespective of whether or not that Lender, Affiliate or that subsequent holder shall have made any demand hereunder and whether or not such deposits or other indebtedness are otherwise fully secured and that Lender,
Affiliate and subsequent holder is hereby irrevocably authorized to permit such setoff and appropriation; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be
paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.13 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in
trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as
to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or Affiliate; provided, however, that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
 10.09   Interest Rate
Limitation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable
Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid
principal, refunded to the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law,
(a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal
parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Loans hereunder. 

  
 69 

 10.10   Counterparts; Integration;
Effectiveness.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together
shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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 and the other Loan Documents shall become effective when they shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative
Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement and any other Loan Document by telecopy or
other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

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

 10.12   Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is
held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall
endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity
of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that the
enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the
extent not so limited. 
 10.13   Replacement of Lenders.  If (i) any Lender requests
compensation under Section 3.04, (ii) the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Person for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, (iii) any Lender is not
obligated to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, (iv) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (v) any Lender has not consented to a proposed amendment,
modification or waiver under this Agreement that requires the consent of the Required Lenders pursuant to Section 10.01 (but excluding in each case any Lender that has not consented to a proposed amendment, modification or waiver under
this Agreement that requires consent of such Lender pursuant to either proviso contained in Section 10.01) of which such proposed amendment, modification or waiver has otherwise been approved by the Required Lenders, or (vi) any
other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the 

  
 70 

 
Company the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to
assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan
Documents to an assignee (the “Replacement Lender”) that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that: 

(a)        the Company shall have paid or caused to be paid to the Administrative
Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b); 

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

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

(d)        such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws. 

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

10.14   Applicable Law. 

(a)        This Agreement, any Notes and the other Loan Documents (other than the
Guaranty which shall be governed by California law) shall be governed by, and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of laws principles. 

(b)        Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement may be
brought in the courts of the State of New York sitting in the county of New York or of the United States for the Southern District of such State, and by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the Administrative Agent, the Company and the
Lenders consents, for itself and in respect of its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of those courts. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Company and the Lenders irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of forum non
conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any action or proceeding in such jurisdiction in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent, the Company and the Lenders each waive personal
service of any summons, complaint or other process, which may be made by any other means permitted by New York law. 

10.15   Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury.   EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY
WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT 

  
 71 

 
OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE
WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND
THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 

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

10.17   Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents.   The words
“execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without
limitation Assignment and Assumptions, amendments or other modifications, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by
the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may
be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any

  
 72 

 
other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Administrative Agent is under no
obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it. 

10.18   USA PATRIOT Act.   Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter
defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Company that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the
“Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Company, which information includes the name and address of the Company and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative
Agent, as applicable, to identify the Company in accordance with the Act. The Company shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or
such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.

principal amount is paid in full, at such interest rates and at such times as provided in the Agreement. All payments of principal and interest shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender in Dollars in immediately
available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office. If any amount is not paid in full when due hereunder, such unpaid amount shall bear interest, to be paid upon demand, from the due date thereof until the date of actual payment (and before

 This Note is one of the

Lender shall be evidenced by one or more loan accounts or records maintained by the Lender in the ordinary course of business. The Lender may also attach schedules to this Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and
payments with respect thereto. [If the Lender was a party to the Existing Credit Agreement, this Note amends and restates any promissory note executed and delivered by the Company in favor of the Lender in connection with such Existing Credit
Agreement.] 
 The Company, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby waives diligence, presentment, protest and
demand and notice of protest, demand, dishonor and non-payment of this Note.

FORM OF GUARANTY 
  

FIFTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CONTINUING GUARANTY AGREEMENT 

THIS FIFTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CONTINUING GUARANTY AGREEMENT dated as of June 8, 2015 (this “Guaranty
Agreement”), is being entered into among EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED AND EACH OTHER PERSON WHO SHALL BECOME A PARTY HERETO BY EXECUTION OF A GUARANTY JOINDER AGREEMENT (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the
“Guarantors”) and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for each of the Guaranteed Parties. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 
 RECITALS: 

A.         Pursuant to that certain Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
dated as of the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Mattel, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Administrative
Agent, and the lenders now or hereafter party thereto (the “Lenders”), the Lenders have agreed to provide to the Company a revolving credit facility. 

B.         It is a condition precedent to the Guaranteed Parties’
obligations to make and maintain such extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement that the Guarantors shall have executed and delivered this Guaranty Agreement to the Administrative Agent. 

C.         Each Guarantor is, directly or indirectly, a wholly-owned Domestic
Subsidiary of the Company and will materially benefit from such extensions of credit. 

D.         This Guaranty Agreement amends and restates in its entirety that
certain Fourth Amended and Restated Continuing Guaranty Agreement dated as of March 11, 2013. 
 In order to induce the
Guaranteed Parties to, from time to time, make and maintain extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

1.         Guaranty.      Each
Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally, absolutely, continually and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities (as
defined below). For all purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, “Guaranteed Liabilities” means: (a) the Company’s prompt payment in full, when due or declared due and at all such times, of all Obligations and all other
amounts pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Notes and all other Loan Documents heretofore, now or at any time or times hereafter owing, arising, due or payable from the Company to any one or more of the Guaranteed Parties, including
principal, interest, premiums and fees (including all actual and reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses 

  
 E-1 

Form of Guaranty 

 
of counsel (collectively, “Attorneys’ Costs”); and (b) the Company’s prompt, full and faithful performance, observance and discharge of each and every agreement,
undertaking, covenant and provision to be performed, observed or discharged by the Company under the Credit Agreement, the Notes and all other Loan Documents. The Guarantors’ obligations to the Guaranteed Parties under this Guaranty Agreement
are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Guarantors’ Obligations” and, with respect to each Guarantor individually, the “Guarantor’s Obligations”. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the liability of each Guarantor individually with respect to its
Guarantor’s Obligations shall be limited to the greater of: (a) the ‘reasonably equivalent value,’ received by such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries arising out of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, repayment
of intercompany or third party debt of, investments made in, and capital contributions, advances and loans made to, such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, by the Company or any other Subsidiary with, or as a direct or
indirect result of obtaining, the proceeds of any credit extended under the Loan Documents) in exchange for or in connection with such Guarantor’s guaranty of the Obligations, and (b) 95% of the excess of (i) a ‘fair
valuation’ of the amount of the assets and other property of such Guarantor and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole as of the applicable date of determination of the incurrence of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder over
(ii) a ‘fair valuation’ of such Guarantor’s and its Subsidiaries’ debts taken as a whole as of such date, but excluding liabilities arising under this Guaranty Agreement and excluding all liabilities owing by such Guarantor
and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to the Company or any other Subsidiary or otherwise subordinated to such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, it being understood that a portion of such indebtedness owing to the Company shall be discharged
on a dollar-for-dollar basis in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Guarantor hereunder. The meaning of the terms ‘reasonably equivalent value’ and ‘fair valuation,’ and the calculations of assets and other property and
debts, shall be determined in accordance with the applicable federal and California state laws in effect on the date hereof governing the determination of the insolvency of a debtor and to further the intent of all parties hereto to maximize the
amount payable by any Guarantor without rendering it insolvent or leaving it with an unreasonably small amount of capital in relation to its business, in either case, at the applicable date for the determination of the incurrence of its obligations
hereunder; provided, however, that each Guarantor agrees, to the maximum extent permitted by law, that ‘fair valuation’ of such Guarantor’s and its Subsidiaries’ assets and other properties means the fair market
sales price as would be obtained in an arms’-length transaction between competent, informed and willing parties under no compulsion to sell or buy or collections thereof obtained in the ordinary course of business and ‘fair valuation’
of its debts means the amount, in light of the applicable circumstances, at the time, for which such Guarantor or its Subsidiaries is liable for matured known liquidated liabilities or would reasonably be expected to become liable on contingent or
unliquidated liabilities as they mature and taking into consideration the nature of any such contingency and the probability that liability would be imposed. Each Guarantor agrees that it is jointly and severally, directly and primarily liable
(subject to the limitation in the immediately preceding sentence) for the Guaranteed Liabilities. 

2.         Payment.        
If the Company shall default in payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, whether principal, interest, premium, fees (including, but not limited 

  
 E-2 

 
to, Attorneys’ Costs) or otherwise, when and as the same shall become due, and after expiration of any applicable grace period, whether according to the terms of the Credit Agreement, by
acceleration, or otherwise, or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, then any or all of the Guarantors will, upon demand thereof by the Administrative Agent, fully pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, subject to any restriction on each Guarantor’s Obligations set forth in Section 1 hereof, an amount equal to all the Guaranteed Liabilities then due and owing. 

3.         Absolute Rights and
Obligations.    This is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. The Guarantors’ Obligations under this Guaranty Agreement shall be joint and several, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each
Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defense to its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement to which it is a party by reason of: 

(a)        any lack of legality, validity or enforceability of the
Credit Agreement, of any of the Notes, of any other Loan Document, or of any other agreement or instrument creating, providing security for, or otherwise relating to any of the Guarantors’ Obligations, any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, or any
other guaranty of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities (the Loan Documents and all such other agreements and instruments being collectively referred to as the “Related Agreements”); 

(b)        any action taken under any of the Related Agreements, any
exercise of any right or power therein conferred, any failure or omission to enforce any right conferred thereby, or any waiver of any covenant or condition therein provided; 

(c)        any acceleration of the maturity of any of the Guaranteed
Liabilities, of the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Guarantor, or of any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related Agreements; 

(d)        any release, exchange, non-perfection, lapse in perfection,
disposal, deterioration in value, or impairment of any security for any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, for any of the Guarantor’s Obligations of any Guarantor, or for any other obligations or liabilities of any Person under any of the Related
Agreements; 
 (e)        any dissolution of the Company or any
Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement, or the combination or consolidation of the Company or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement into or with another entity or any transfer or disposition of any assets of the
Company or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement; 

(f)        any extension (including without limitation extensions of
time for payment), renewal, amendment, restructuring or restatement of, any acceptance of late or partial payments under, or any change in the amount of any borrowings or any credit facilities available under, the Credit Agreement, any of the Notes
or any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, in whole or in part; 

  
 E-3 

 (g)        the existence,
addition, modification, termination, reduction or impairment of value, or release of any other guaranty (or security therefor) of the Guaranteed Liabilities (including without limitation the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Guarantor and
obligations arising under any other Guaranty now or hereafter in effect); 

(h)        any waiver of, forbearance or indulgence under, or other
consent to any change in or departure from any term or provision contained in the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other Related Agreement, including without limitation any term pertaining to the payment or performance of any of the
Guaranteed Liabilities, any of the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Guarantor, or any of the obligations or liabilities of any party to any other Related Agreement; 

(i)        any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice
to or knowledge of any Guarantor) which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of such Guarantor, or might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or discharge of, a surety or a guarantor, including
without limitation any right to require or claim that resort be had to the Company or any other Loan Party or to any collateral in respect of the Guaranteed Liabilities or Guarantors’ Obligations; and 

(j)        without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each
Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all benefits of California Civil Code Sections 2809, 2810, 2819, 2825, 2839, 2845 and 2850. 

It is the express purpose and intent of the parties hereto that this Guaranty Agreement and the Guarantors’ Obligations hereunder and
under each Guaranty Joinder Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and shall not be discharged except by payment as herein provided. 

4.         Currency and Funds of Payment.   All
Guarantors’ Obligations will be paid in lawful currency of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, regardless of any law, regulation or decree now or hereafter in effect that might in any manner affect the Guaranteed
Liabilities, or the rights of any Guaranteed Party with respect thereto as against the Company, or cause or permit to be invoked any alteration in the time, amount or manner of payment by the Company of any or all of the Guaranteed Liabilities. 

5.         Events of Default.   Without limiting the
provisions of Section 2 hereof, in the event that there shall occur and be continuing an Event of Default, then notwithstanding any collateral or other security or credit support for the Guaranteed Liabilities, at the Administrative
Agent’s election and without notice thereof or demand therefor, the Guarantors’ Obligations shall immediately be and become due and payable. 

6.         Subordination.   Until this Guaranty
Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 22 hereof, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally subordinates all present and future debts, liabilities or obligations now or hereafter owing to such Guarantor (a) of the Company,
to 

  
 E-4 

 
the payment in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities, (b) of every other Guarantor (an “obligated guarantor”), to the payment in full of the Guarantors’ Obligations of such
obligated guarantor, and (c) of each other Person now or hereafter constituting a Loan Party, to the payment in full of the obligations of such Loan Party owing to any Guaranteed Party and arising under the Loan Documents. All amounts due under
such subordinated debts, liabilities or obligations shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, be collected and, upon request by the Administrative Agent, paid over forthwith to the Administrative Agent for the
benefit of the Guaranteed Parties on account of the Guaranteed Liabilities, the Guarantors’ Obligations, or such other obligations, as applicable, and, after such request and pending such payment, shall be held by such Guarantor as agent and
bailee of the Guaranteed Parties separate and apart from all other funds, property and accounts of such Guarantor. 

7.         Suits.   Each Guarantor from time to time
shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, on demand, at the Administrative Agent’s Office or such other address as the Administrative Agent shall give notice of to such Guarantor in accordance with
Section 24, the Guarantors’ Obligations as they become or are declared due, and in the event such payment is not made forthwith, the Administrative Agent may proceed to suit against any one or more or all of the Guarantors. At the
Administrative Agent’s election, one or more and successive or concurrent suits may be brought hereon by the Administrative Agent against any one or more or all of the Guarantors, whether or not suit has been commenced against the Company, any
other Guarantor, or any other Person and whether or not the Guaranteed Parties have taken or failed to take any other action to collect all or any portion of the Guaranteed Liabilities or have taken or failed to take any actions against any
collateral securing payment or performance of all or any portion of the Guaranteed Liabilities, and irrespective of any event, occurrence, or condition described in Section 3 hereof. 

8.         Set-Off and Waiver.    Each
Guarantor waives any right to assert against any Guaranteed Party as a defense, counterclaim, set-off, recoupment or cross claim in respect of its Guarantor’s Obligations, any defense (legal or equitable) or other claim which such Guarantor may
now or at any time hereafter have against the Company or any or all of the Guaranteed Parties without waiving any additional defenses, set-offs, counterclaims or other claims otherwise available to such Guarantor. 

9.         Waiver of Notice; Subrogation. 

(a)        Each Guarantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law
notice of the following events or occurrences: (i) acceptance of this Guaranty Agreement; (ii) the Lenders’ heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter making Loans and issuing Letters of Credit and otherwise loaning monies or
giving or extending credit to or for the benefit of the Company or any other Loan Party, or otherwise entering into arrangements with any Loan Party giving rise to Guaranteed Liabilities, whether pursuant to the Credit Agreement or the Notes or any
other Loan Document or Related Agreement or any amendments, modifications, or supplements thereto, or replacements or extensions thereof; (iii) presentment, demand, default, non-payment, partial payment and protest; and (iv) any other
event, condition, or occurrence described in Section 3 hereof. Each 

  
 E-5 

 
Guarantor agrees that each Guaranteed Party may heretofore, now or at any time hereafter do any or all of the foregoing in such manner, upon such terms and at such times as each Guaranteed Party,
in its sole and absolute discretion, deems advisable, without in any way or respect impairing, affecting, reducing or releasing such Guarantor from its Guarantor’s Obligations, and each Guarantor hereby consents to each and all of the foregoing
events or occurrences. 
 (b)        Each Guarantor hereby agrees
that payment or performance by such Guarantor of its Guarantor’s Obligations under this Guaranty Agreement may be enforced by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Parties upon demand by the Administrative Agent to such Guarantor
without the Administrative Agent being required, such Guarantor expressly waiving to the extent permitted by law any right it may have to require the Administrative Agent, to (i) prosecute collection or seek to enforce or resort to any remedies
against the Company or any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Liabilities, or (ii) seek to enforce or resort to any remedies with respect to any security interests, Liens or encumbrances granted to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender or other party to a Related Agreement by the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person on account of the Guaranteed Liabilities or any guaranty thereof, IT BEING EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD, ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED TO BY SUCH
GUARANTOR THAT DEMAND UNDER THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT MAY BE MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AND THE PROVISIONS HEREOF ENFORCED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE FIRST DATE ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT OCCURS AND IS CONTINUING UNDER THE
CREDIT AGREEMENT. 
 (c)        Each Guarantor further agrees
with respect to this Guaranty Agreement that it shall not exercise any of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, indemnity or recourse to security for the Guaranteed Liabilities until 93 days immediately following the Facility
Termination Date (defined below) shall have elapsed without the filing or commencement, by or against any Loan Party, of any state or federal action, suit, petition or proceeding seeking any reorganization, liquidation or other relief or arrangement
in respect of creditors of, or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, trustee or conservator in respect to, such Loan Party or its assets. If an amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such rights at any time prior to termination of
this Guaranty Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 22 hereof, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
Guaranteed Parties, to be credited and applied upon the Guarantors’ Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or otherwise as the Guaranteed Parties may elect. The agreements in this
subsection shall survive repayment of all of the Guarantors’ Obligations, the termination or expiration of this Guaranty Agreement in any manner, including but not limited to termination in accordance with Section 22 hereof, and
occurrence of the Facility Termination Date. 

  
 E-6 

 For purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, “Facility Termination

shall be effective as of the date first above written and shall continue in full force and effect until termination in accordance with Section 22 hereof. Any claim or claims that the Guaranteed Parties may at any time hereafter have
against a Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement may be asserted by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Parties by written notice directed to such Guarantor in accordance with Section 24 hereof. 

11.       Representations and Warranties.    Each
Guarantor warrants and represents to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Guaranty Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a party, as
applicable), and to perform its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement, that this Guaranty Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a party, as applicable) has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Guarantor by its
duly authorized representatives; that this Guaranty Agreement (and any Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which such Guarantor is a party) is legal, valid, binding and enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms except as
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles; and that such Guarantor’s execution, delivery
and performance of this Guaranty Agreement (and any Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which such Guarantor is a party) do not violate or constitute a breach of (x) any of its certificate or articles of incorporation, organization or formation, or
its by-laws or organization or other operating agreement, any material agreement or instrument to which such Guarantor is a party, or (y) any law, order, regulation, decree or award of any governmental authority or arbitral body to which it or
its properties or operations is subject, in the case of clause (y), the violation or breach of which would result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

12.       Expenses.    Each Guarantor agrees to be
jointly and severally liable for the payment of all actual and reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses, including Attorneys’ Costs, incurred by any Guaranteed Party in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty Agreement, whether or
not suit be brought. 

13.       Reinstatement.     Each Guarantor agrees
that this Guaranty Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, at any time payment received by any Guaranteed Party in respect of any Guaranteed Liabilities is rescinded or must be restored for any reason, or is
repaid by any Guaranteed Party in whole or in part in good faith settlement of any pending or threatened avoidance claim. 

14.       Attorney-in-Fact.     To the extent
permitted by law, each Guarantor hereby appoints the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, as such Guarantor’s attorney-in-fact for the purposes of carrying out the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement and

  
 E-7 

 
taking any action and executing any instrument which the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is coupled with an
interest and is irrevocable; provided, that the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise rights under this power of attorney only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 

15.       Reliance.   Each Guarantor represents and warrants
to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties, that: (a) such Guarantor has adequate means to obtain on a continuing basis (i) from the Company, information concerning the Loan Parties and the Loan Parties’
financial condition and affairs and (ii) from other reliable sources, such other information as it deems material in deciding to provide this Guaranty Agreement and any Guaranty Joinder Agreement (“Other Information”), and has
full and complete access to the Loan Parties’ books and records and to such Other Information; (b) such Guarantor is not relying on any Guaranteed Party or its or their employees, directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates,
to provide any such information, now or in the future; (c) such Guarantor has been furnished with and reviewed the terms of the Credit Agreement and such other Loan Documents and Related Agreements as it has requested, is executing this
Guaranty Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a party, as applicable) freely and deliberately, and understands the obligations and financial risk undertaken by providing this Guaranty Agreement (and any Guaranty Joinder
Agreement); (d) such Guarantor has relied solely on the Guarantor’s own independent investigation, appraisal and analysis of the Company, the Company’s financial condition and affairs, the Other Information, and such other matters as
it deems material in deciding to provide this Guaranty Agreement (and any Guaranty Joinder Agreement) and is fully aware of the same; and (e) such Guarantor has not depended or relied on any Guaranteed Party or its or their employees,
directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates, for any information whatsoever concerning the Company or the Company’s financial condition and affairs or any other matters material to such Guarantor’s decision to provide this
Guaranty Agreement (and any Guaranty Joinder Agreement), or for any counseling, guidance, or special consideration or any promise therefor with respect to such decision. Each Guarantor agrees that no Guaranteed Party has any duty or responsibility
whatsoever, now or in the future, to provide to such Guarantor any information concerning the Company or the Company’s financial condition and affairs, or any Other Information, other than as expressly provided herein, and that, if such
Guarantor receives any such information from any Guaranteed Party or its or their employees, directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates, such Guarantor will independently verify the information and will not rely on any Guaranteed Party
or its or their employees, directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates, with respect to such information.

interpretation contained in Section 1.03 of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable to this Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty Joinder Agreement and are hereby incorporated by reference. All representations and warranties contained

 17.       Entire
Agreement.      This Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty Joinder Agreement, together with the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents, constitutes and expresses the entire understanding between the parties
hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements, understandings, inducements, commitments or conditions, express or implied, oral or written, except as herein contained. The express terms hereof
control and supersede any course of performance or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof. Except as provided in Section 22, neither this Guaranty Agreement nor any Guaranty Joinder Agreement nor any portion or
provision hereof or thereof may be changed, altered, modified, supplemented, discharged, canceled, terminated, or amended orally or in any manner other than as provided in the Credit Agreement.

Agreement, each Guaranty Joinder Agreement and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof and thereof, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and thereto, and to their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors
and assigns; provided, however, that no Guarantor shall be permitted to assign any of its rights, powers, duties or obligations under this Guaranty Agreement, any Guaranty Joinder Agreement or any other interest herein or therein
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence of this Section 18, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons, or grant to one or more Persons participations in
or to, all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement); and to the extent of any such assignment or participation such other Person shall, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, including Article IX thereof (concerning the Administrative Agent)
and Section 10.06 thereof concerning assignments and participations. All references herein to the Administrative Agent shall include any successor thereof. 

19.       Reserved. 

20.       Severability.  The provisions of this Guaranty Agreement
are independent of and separable from each other. If any provision hereof shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof, but

executed in any number of counterparts each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Guaranty Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart
executed by the Guarantors against whom enforcement is sought. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 21, the provisions of Section 10.10 of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable to this Guaranty
Agreement. 
 22.       Termination.    Subject to
reinstatement pursuant to Section 13 hereof, this Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty Joinder Agreement, and all of the Guarantors’

hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any other Guaranteed Party provided by law or under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or other applicable agreements or
instruments. The making of the Loans and other credit extensions pursuant to the Credit Agreement and other Related Agreements shall be conclusively presumed to have been made or extended, respectively, in reliance upon each Guarantor’s
guaranty of the Guaranteed Liabilities pursuant to the terms hereof. Any amounts not paid when due under this Guaranty Agreement shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

26.       Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. 

(a)        THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT AND EACH GUARANTY JOINDER
AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

 E-10 

 
SUCH GUARANTOR EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE IN, OR TO THE EXERCISE OF JURISDICTION OVER IT AND ITS PROPERTY BY, ANY SUCH COURT IN ANY

                      , a
                                 (the “Joining Guarantor”),
delivered to BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., in its capacity as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) under that certain Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, modified, supplemented or restated from
time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), dated as of June 8, 2015, by and among MATTEL, INC. (the “Company”), the Lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent. All capitalized terms not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 
 RECITALS: 

A.         Certain Subsidiaries of the Company are party to that certain Fifth
Amended and Restated Continuing Guaranty Agreement dated as of June 8, 2015 (as in effect on the date hereof, the “Guaranty Agreement”). 

B.         The Joining Guarantor is a Domestic Subsidiary of the Company, and the
Company has requested that such Joining Guarantor be joined as a party to the Guaranty Agreement as a Guarantor. 

C.         The Joining Guarantor will materially benefit directly and indirectly
from the making and maintenance of the extensions of credit made from time to time under the Credit Agreement. 
 In order
to induce the Guaranteed Parties to from time to time make and maintain extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement, the Joining Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: 

1.          Joinder.       
 The Joining Guarantor hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally becomes a party to the Guaranty Agreement as a Guarantor and bound by all the terms, conditions, obligations, liabilities and undertakings of each Guarantor or to
which each Guarantor is subject thereunder, including without limitation the joint and several, unconditional, absolute, continuing and irrevocable guarantee to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties of the payment and
performance in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities (as defined in the Guaranty Agreement) whether now existing or hereafter arising, all with the same force and effect as if the Joining Guarantor were a signatory to the Guaranty Agreement, subject to
any limitations set forth in Section 1 of the Guaranty Agreement.

Form of Guaranty 

2.         Affirmations.   The Joining Guarantor
hereby acknowledges and reaffirms as of the date hereof with respect to itself, its properties and its affairs each of the waivers, representations, warranties, acknowledgements and certifications applicable to any Guarantor contained in the

3.         Severability.       
The provisions of this Guaranty Joinder Agreement are independent of and separable from each other. If any provision hereof shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or

Guarantor Subordination AgreementCONSULTING AGREEMENT

EXHIBIT 10.1

CONSULTING AGREEMENT

This Consulting Agreement (this "Agreement") is effective as of the first day of October, 2014 by and between Mindesta, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Graham Wong ("Consultant").

WHEREAS, the Company desires to have Consultant provide certain consulting services, as described in Section 1 of this Agreement, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Consultant desires to provide the Services to the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in exchange for the Consulting Shares (defined in Section 2) and expense reimbursement provided for in Section 2 and

WHEREAS, the Consultant has over 15 years of experience in marketing and advertising with extensive brand development and strategy experience and has worked for Aeroplan, Cineplex, Toronto Public Health, CAMH, Del Monte, Nike, and Enbridge.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing promises and the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1.

CONSULTING SERVICES. During the term of this Agreement, Consultant, in the capacity as an independent contractor, shall provide executive search services to the Company set forth on Schedule A, attached hereto (the "Services"). The Company acknowledges that Consultant will limit its role under this Agreement to that of a Consultant, and the Company acknowledges that Consultant is not, and will not become, engaged in the business of (i) effecting securities transactions for or on the account of the Company, (ii) providing investment advisory services as defined in the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, or (iii) providing any tax, legal or other services. The Company acknowledges and hereby agrees that Consultant is not engaged on a full-time basis and Consultant may pursue any other activities and engagements it desires during the term of this Agreement. Consultant shall perform the Services in accordance with all local, state and federal rules and regulations.

2.

COMPENSATION TO CONSULTANT.

(a)

In lieu of cash and in consideration for the Services, the Company shall issue to the Consultant an aggregate of 6,000,000 (6 million ) shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Consulting Shares”) on the effective date of the Agreement. If the company does not have a sufficient number of authorized shares to issue the Consulting Shares at the time of entry of this Agreement, or the issuance of the Consulting Shares will restrict the ongoing operations of the Company to secure capital or identify acquisition candidates, then in that event the Consulting Shares shall be deemed “Issuable”, and reported on the Company’s financial statements. 

Following execution of this Agreement the Company will undertake to increase the number of authorized common stock or implement a reverse split of its common stock. If a reverse stock split is implemented and approved, and the Consulting Shares have not yet been issued, then in that event the total number of shares issuable to the Consultant shall be adjusted to reflect the reverse 

stock split. For purposes of example only, if the Company implements a 1:10 reverse split of its outstanding common stock and the Consulting Shares have not yet been issued, then in that event the Consultant shall receive 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. 

(i)

Consultant has the requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement. No consent, approval or agreement of any individual or entity is required to be obtained by the Consultant in connection with the execution and performance by the Consultant of this Agreement or the execution and performance by the Consultant of any agreements, instruments or other obligations entered into in connection with this Agreement.

(ii)

The Consultant is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Consultant is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Consulting Shares.

(b)

Any commercially reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Consultant in connection with the performance of the Services (the "Consultant Expenses") shall be reimbursed by the Company within thirty (30) days of Consultant submitting to the Company an invoice that details the amount of the Consultant Expenses and includes written documentation of each expense. Consultant shall not charge a markup, surcharge, handling or administrative fee on the Consultant Expenses. The Company acknowledges that Consultant may incur certain expenses during the term of this Agreement, but not receive a bill or receipt for such expenses until after the term of this Agreement. In such case, Consultant shall provide the Company with an invoice and documentation of the expense and the Company shall reimburse Consultant for such expenses within five (5) days after receiving such invoice.

3.

TERM The term of this Agreement shall be for twelve (12) months and commence as of the effective date of this Agreement, subject to Section 4 of this Agreement (the "Tern").

4.

EFFECT OF TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated during the Term by the Company upon thirty (30) days’ written notice.

5.

ACCURACY OF INFORMATION PROVIDED TO CONSULTANT. The Company represents and warrants to Consultant that the publicly available financial information concerning the Company has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is true and correct in all material respects.

6.

INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. Consultant shall act at all times hereunder as an independent contractor as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, with respect to the Company, and not as an employee, partner, agent or co-venturer of or with the Company. Except as set forth herein, the Company shall neither have nor exercise control or direction whatsoever over the operations of Consultant, and Consultant shall neither have nor exercise any control or direction whatsoever over the employees, agents or subcontractors hired by the Company.

7.

NO AGENCY CREATED. No agency, employment, partnership or joint venture shall be created by this Agreement, as Consultant is an independent contractor. Consultant shall have no authority as an agent of the Company or to otherwise bind the Company to any agreement, 

commitment, obligation, contract, instrument, undertaking, arrangement, certificate or other matter. Each party hereto shall refrain from making any representation intended to create an apparent agency, employment, partnership or joint venture relationship between the parties.

8.

INDEMNIFICATION.

(a) Indemnity by the Company. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Consultant and each person and affiliate associated with Consultant against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable costs of investigation and legal counsel fees), in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have, arising out of, related to or based upon any violation of law, rule or regulation by the Company or the Company's agents, employees, representatives or affiliates.

(b) Indemnity by Consultant. Consultant hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each person and affiliate associated with the Company against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable costs of investigation and legal counsel fees), in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have, arising out of, related to or based upon:

(i)

Any breach by Consultant of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement; or

(ii)

Any violation of law, rule or regulation by Consultant or Consultant's agents, employees, representatives or affiliates.

If the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of such claims, the Indemnified Party or any such controlling party shall have the right to employ a single legal counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party, in any such action and participate in the defense thereof and to be indemnified for the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party's own legal counsel.

(d) This Section 8 shall survive any termination of this Agreement for a period of three (3) years from the date of termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Indemnifying Party will be responsible for any indemnification obligation for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party.
