affiliates. 

 
Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Eurodollar Rate (provided that clause (c) shall not be applicable during any period in which the Eurodollar Rate is unavailable or unascertainable). If
the Alternate Base Rate as determined pursuant to the foregoing would be less than 1.00%, such rate shall be deemed to be 1.00% 

“Anti-Corruption Laws” means all laws, rules, and regulations of any jurisdiction applicable to the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries from time to time concerning or relating to bribery or corruption, including, without limitation, the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977.

applicable Rating Agency (it being understood that a change in outlook status (e.g., watch status, negative outlook status) does not constitute a change in any Designated Rating for purposes hereof); and (d) if the rating system of either
Rating Agency shall change, or if either Rating Agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall negotiate in good faith if necessary to amend this definition and the
definitions of “Designated Rating” and “Rating Agencies” to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of Designated Ratings from such Rating Agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the
Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the Designated Rating of such Rating Agency most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

Person becomes the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has had a receiver, conservator, trustee, administrator, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person charged with the reorganization or liquidation of its
business appointed for it, or, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any such proceeding or appointment; provided
that a Bankruptcy Event shall not result solely by virtue of any ownership interest, or the acquisition of any ownership interest, in such Person by a Governmental Authority or instrumentality thereof, so long as such ownership interest does not
result in or provide such Person with immunity from the jurisdiction of courts within the United States or from the enforcement of judgments or writs of attachment on its assets or permit such Person (or such Governmental Authority or
instrumentality) to reject, repudiate, disavow or disaffirm any contracts or agreements made by such Person. 

“Benchmark” means, initially, Eurodollar Rate; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR
Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to Eurodollar Rate or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark”
means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to clause (c) or clause (d) of Section 3.5. 

“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set forth in the order below

 (1) the sum of:
(a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 
 (3) the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has
been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate
or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for dollar-denominated
syndicated credit facilities at such time and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 
 provided
that, in the case of clause (1), such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion;
provided further that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event, and the delivery of a Term SOFR Notice, on the applicable Benchmark
Replacement Date the “Benchmark Replacement” shall revert to and shall be deemed to be the sum of (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, as set forth in clause (1) of this definition (subject to the
first proviso above). 

  
 4 

 If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1), (2) or
(3) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with
an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Interest Period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement: 

(1) for purposes of clauses (1) and (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the first alternative set
forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent: 
 (a) the spread adjustment, or method for
calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant
Governmental Body for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; 

(b) the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark
Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that would apply to the fallback rate for a derivative transaction referencing the ISDA Definitions to be effective upon an index cessation event with respect to such Benchmark for the applicable
Corresponding Tenor; and 
 (2) for purposes of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the
spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving
due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the
Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the
replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities; 

provided that, in the case of clause (1) above, such adjustment is displayed on a screen or other information
service that publishes such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion. 

  
 5 

 “Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with
respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Alternate Base Rate,” the definition of “Business Day,” the definition of “Interest
Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other
technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent
in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market
practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents). 
 “Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect
to the then-current Benchmark: 
 (1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition
Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof)
permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); 
 (2) in
the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein; or 

(3) in the case of a Term SOFR Transition Event, the date that is thirty (30) days after the date a Term SOFR Notice is
provided to the Banks and the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.5(d); or 
 (4) in the case of an Early Opt-in Election, the sixth (6th) Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Banks, so long as the Administrative Agent has not
received, by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Banks, written notice of objection to such Early Opt-in Election from Banks comprising the Majority Banks. 
 For the avoidance of doubt,
(i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the
Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events
set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof). 

  
 6 

 “Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or
more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark: 
 (1) a public statement or publication of
information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such
component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); 

(2) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or
the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the NYFRB, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the
administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or
such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that
will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 
 (3) a public statement or
publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no
longer representative. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have
occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

 “Benchmark Unavailability Period” means the period (if any) (x) beginning at the time that a
Benchmark Replacement Date pursuant to clauses (1) or (2) of that definition has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in accordance
with Section 3.5 and (y) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in accordance with Section 3.5.

SECTION 1.2. Classification of Loans and Borrowings. For purposes of this Agreement, Loans may be classified and referred to by Class
(e.g., a “Revolving Loan”) or by Type (e.g., a “Eurodollar Loan” or an “ABR Loan”). Borrowings also may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving Borrowing”) or by Type (e.g., a
“Eurodollar Borrowing” or an “ABR Borrowing”). 
 SECTION 1.3. Other Definitional Provisions. 

(a) Unless otherwise specified therein, all terms defined in this Agreement shall have such defined meanings when used in the other Loan
Documents or any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto. 
 (b) As used herein and in the other Loan
Documents, and any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, (i) the words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without
limitation”, (ii) the word “incur” shall be construed to mean incur, create, issue, assume, become liable in respect of or suffer to exist (and the words “incurred” and “incurrence” shall have correlative
meanings), (iii) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, Capital Stock, securities,
revenues, accounts, leasehold interests and contract rights, (iv) references to agreements or other Contractual Obligations shall, unless otherwise specified, be deemed to refer to such agreements or Contractual Obligations as amended,
supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, and (v) references to any Person shall, unless otherwise specified, be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns. 

(c) The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall
refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and Section, Schedule and Exhibit references are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. 

  
 32 

 (d) The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the
singular and plural forms of such terms. 
 SECTION 1.4. Accounting Terms; GAAP. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, all terms of an accounting or financial nature in this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with GAAP; provided that if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision of this
Agreement to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Majority Banks request an
amendment to any provision of this Agreement for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in
effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, GAAP will be
deemed for all purposes hereof to treat leases that would have been classified as operating leases in accordance with GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2014, in a manner consistent with the treatment of such leases under GAAP as in effect on
December 31, 2014, notwithstanding any modifications or interpretive changes thereto or implementations of any such modifications or interpretive changes that may have occurred thereafter. 

SECTION 1.5. Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by reference to the Eurodollar
Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July
2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark
Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be
deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to
be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 3.5(c) and (d) provide
the mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 3.5(f), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is
based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other
rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented
pursuant to Section 3.5(c) or (d), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 3.5(e)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value
or economic equivalence of, the Eurodollar Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. 

  
 33 

 SECTION 1.6. Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount
of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document
related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases,
whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such times. 
 SECTION 1.7. Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan
Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right,
obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been
organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time. 
 ARTICLE II 

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT 

SECTION 2.1. The Commitments. 

(a) Each Bank severally agrees, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to make revolving credit loans (each such
loan, a “Revolving Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) such Bank’s
Outstanding Extensions of Credit exceeding such Bank’s Commitment or (ii) the Total Outstanding Extensions of Credit exceeding the Total Commitments; provided that no Revolving Loan shall be made as a Eurodollar Rate Loan with an
Interest Period ending after the Termination Date. 
 (b) Each Revolving Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars and shall consist of
Revolving Loans of the same Type made on the same day by the Banks ratably according to their respective Revolving Percentages. Each Revolving Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans by the Borrower shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000
or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided that no more than ten Eurodollar tranches shall be outstanding at any time. Each Revolving Borrowing of ABR Loans by the Borrower shall be in an aggregate principal amount of
$1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Within the limits of the applicable Commitments, the Borrower may borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 4.6 and reborrow Revolving Loans under this Section 2.1. The principal
amount outstanding on the Revolving Loans and all other amounts accrued hereunder shall be due and payable on the Termination Date, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. 

  
 34 

 SECTION 2.2. Procedure for Revolving Loan Borrowing. 

(a) The Borrower may borrow Revolving Loans on any Business Day during the period from and including the Closing Date to and excluding the
Termination Date, provided that the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable oral notice or written notice pursuant to a notice of borrowing, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (“Notice of
Borrowing”), which shall be signed by the Borrower and shall specify therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing and
(iv) Interest Period for the Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowing (in the case of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans): 

(i) not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the
case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans; 
 (ii) not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day
immediately preceding the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing of Early Funding ABR Loans; and 
 (iii)
not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the same Business Day of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing of any other ABR Loans. 
 With
respect to any oral notice of borrowing given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall promptly thereafter confirm such notice in writing pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Bank thereof. Each Bank shall, before 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the requested Borrowing Date, make available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office, in immediately available funds, such Bank’s applicable Revolving
Percentage of such Borrowing; provided, however, that, in the event of a requested ABR Loan with respect to which the Borrower has delivered its Notice of Borrowing on the Business Day immediately preceding the requested Borrowing Date
(an “Early Funding ABR Loan”), each Bank shall make its applicable Revolving Percentage of such Borrowing available before 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the requested Borrowing Date. The Administrative Agent shall, no later
than 4:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such date (or no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time), in the case of an Early Funding ABR Loan), make available to the Borrower the proceeds of the Revolving Loans received by the Administrative Agent
hereunder by crediting such account of the Borrower which the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall from time to time designate. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank at least two hours prior to the applicable time described in clause
(a) above by which such Bank is required to deliver its funds to the Administrative Agent with respect to any Borrowing that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank’s applicable Revolving Percentage of such
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.2(a) and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If such amount is made 

  
 35 

 
available to the Administrative Agent on a date after such date of Borrowing, such Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily
average Federal Funds Effective Rate during such period, times (ii) the amount of such Bank’s applicable Revolving Percentage of such Borrowing, times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and
including such date of Borrowing to the date on which such Bank’s applicable Revolving Percentage of such Borrowing shall have become immediately available to the Administrative Agent and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the
Administrative Agent submitted to any Bank with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.2(b) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such
amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Revolving Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If such Bank’s applicable Revolving Percentage of such Borrowing is not in fact made available to the Administrative
Agent by such Bank within one (1) Business Day of such date of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum, equal to (i) the Alternate Base Rate (in the case of
ABR Loans) or (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans), on demand, from the Borrower. 
 (c) The
failure of any Bank to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of
any other Bank to make the Loan to be made by such other Bank on the date of any Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.3. [Reserved]. 

SECTION 2.4. [Reserved]. 

SECTION 2.5. Letters of Credit. (a) L/C Commitment. 

(i) Prior to the Closing Date, the Existing Issuing Bank has issued the Existing Letters of Credit which, from and after the
Closing Date, shall constitute Letters of Credit hereunder. 
 (ii) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including
satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 5.1 (on the Closing Date) and 5.2 (upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit)), each Issuing Bank, in reliance on the agreements of the other Banks set forth in Section 2.5(d),
agrees to issue standby letters of credit (together with the Existing Letters of Credit, the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower in support of obligations (including performance, bid and similar bonding obligations
and credit enhancement) of the Borrower and its Affiliates on any Business Day on or after the Closing Date and prior to the Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Issuing Bank; provided that no Issuing
Bank shall issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (A) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment or (B) the Total Outstanding Extensions of Credit then outstanding would exceed the Total Commitments
then in effect and provided, further, that no Issuing Bank shall be required, without the consent of such Issuing Bank, to issue Letters of Credit in excess of such Issuing Bank’s applicable L/C Commitment at any time outstanding
for each such Issuing Bank. 

  
 36 

 (iii) Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars and shall be a
standby letter of credit issued to support obligations of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, contingent or otherwise, and expire no later than the Maturity Date. 

(iv) No Issuing Bank shall at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict
with, or cause such Issuing Bank or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed on such Issuing Bank by, any applicable Requirement of Law. 

(b) Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that an Issuing Bank (i) issue a
Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Bank at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of such Issuing Bank or (ii) extend, modify or increase the amount of an existing Letter of
Credit by delivering to such Issuing Bank at its address for notices specified herein a notice identifying the Letter of Credit to be extended, modified or increased, the proposed date of such extension, modification or increase, the name and
address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to extend, modify or increase such Letter of Credit. Upon receipt of any Application or a request for an extension, modification or increase of an existing Letter of
Credit, the Issuing Bank will process such Application or request and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit (or an amendment to such existing Letter of Credit, as applicable) requested thereby (but in no event shall any Issuing Bank be required
to issue any Letter of Credit (or extension, modification or increase of an existing Letter of Credit) earlier than two Business Days after its receipt of the Application or request therefor, as applicable) by issuing the original of such Letter of
Credit (or amendment thereof, as applicable) in a form satisfactory to the Borrower to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by such Issuing Bank and Borrower. The relevant Issuing Bank shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit
(or amendment thereof, as applicable) to the Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof and notify the Banks of the amount thereof. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and
conditions of the Application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 

(c) Fees, Commissions and Other Charges. 

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the L/C Participants in accordance with their
respective Revolving Percentages, a Letter of Credit participation fee with respect to their participations in each Letter of Credit, which shall accrue at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate for Eurodollar Rate Loans then in effect,
calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year, on the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit for each day during
the period from the last L/C Fee Payment Date (or, if later, the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) to the date on which such payment is due hereunder. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant
Issuing Bank, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, 

  
 37 

 
which shall accrue at the rate per annum equal to 0.20%, calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case
may be) day year, on the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank for each day during the period from the last L/C Fee Payment Date to the date upon which such payment is due hereunder. Such
Letter of Credit participation fees and fronting fees shall be payable in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date and shall be nonrefundable. 

(ii) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse each Issuing Bank for such normal and customary
costs and reasonable expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Bank in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. 

(iii) The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the relevant Issuing Bank and the
L/C Participants all fees received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this Section 2.5(c). 
 (d)
L/C Participations. 
 (i) Each Issuing Bank irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant,
and, to induce each Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Bank, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such
L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in each Issuing Bank’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the aggregate amount of
drawings under Letters of Credit that have not then been reimbursed pursuant to Section 2.5(e). Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Issuing Bank that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which
such Issuing Bank is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Bank upon demand at such Issuing Bank’s address for notices specified herein an amount
equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed. Each Bank acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this
Section 2.5(d)(i) in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of
a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(ii) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to an Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(d)(i) in respect
of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit is not paid to such Issuing Bank within one Business Day after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Bank on
demand an amount equal to the product of (A) such amount, times (B) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate as quoted by the relevant Issuing Bank, during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date
on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Bank, times 

  
 38 

 
(C) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant
pursuant to Section 2.5(d)(i) is not in fact made available to the relevant Issuing Bank by such L/C Participant within three (3) Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover from such
L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the Alternate Base Rate. A certificate of the relevant Issuing Bank submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this
subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 (iii) Whenever, at any time after any Issuing Bank has
made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 2.5(d)(i), such Issuing Bank receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly
from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Issuing Bank), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Bank will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof;
provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Bank shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Bank, such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Bank the portion thereof previously
distributed by such Issuing Bank to it. 
 (e) Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. (i) The Borrower shall reimburse each
Issuing Bank for any payment that such Issuing Bank makes under a Letter of Credit on or before the date of such payment if the Borrower receives notice of such payment at or before 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date such payment is
made by such Issuing Bank; provided, however, that, if the Borrower does not receive notice of such payment at or before such time on such date or does not reimburse such Issuing Bank under this Section 2.5(e)(i), then
Section 2.5(e)(ii) shall apply. Each such payment shall be made to the relevant Issuing Bank at its address for notices specified herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds. 

(ii) Notwithstanding Section 5.2, each drawing under any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to constitute a Borrowing of ABR
Loans in the amount of such drawing unless the Borrower has reimbursed the relevant Issuing Bank under Section 2.5(e)(i). The Borrowing Date with respect to each such Borrowing shall be deemed to be the date of such drawing. 

(f) Obligations Absolute. 

(i) The Borrower’s payment obligations under Section 2.5(e) shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under
any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against the relevant Issuing Bank or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit,
other than a defense based upon the gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

  
 39 

 (ii) The Borrower also agrees with each Issuing Bank that no Issuing Bank
shall be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 2.5(e) shall not be affected by, among other things, (i) the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such
documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, (ii) any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, (iii) any
claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee, (iv) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein,
(v) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (vi) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder or under any Letter of Credit. 

(iii) No Issuing Bank shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of
any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions caused by such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final,
non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (iv) The Borrower
agrees that any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Bank to the Borrower. 

(g) Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Bank shall
promptly notify the Borrower by telephone (confirmed in writing) of the date and amount thereof and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make a payment thereunder. The responsibility of such Issuing Bank to the Borrower in connection with any
draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of
Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit. 
 (h) Application. To the extent that any
provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 2.5, the provisions of this Section 2.5 shall control. 

(i) Replacement, Termination or Resignation of an Issuing Bank. 

(i) Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the replaced Issuing Bank and the
successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such replacement of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of such
replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (A) the 

  
 40 

 
applicable successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and
(B) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of
an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such
replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 (ii) Any Issuing Bank may be terminated at
any time upon not less than 10 Business Days’ written notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such termination of an Issuing Bank. At the time any
such termination shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the terminated Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c). After the effective date of the termination of an Issuing Bank hereunder,
(i) such Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such termination, but shall not be
required to issue additional Letters of Credit and (ii) if no Letter of Credit previously issued by such Issuing Bank is then outstanding and no L/C Exposure in respect of any such Letter of Credit then exists, such terminated Issuing Bank
shall not be deemed an Issuing Bank for purposes of any provisions hereof or the other Loan Documents which require the consent or approval of each Issuing Bank (provided that such terminated Issuing Bank’s consent shall be required for any
waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that affects the rights or duties of such terminated Issuing Bank hereunder). 

(iii) Any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time after which such Issuing Bank is no longer a Bank upon not
less than 15 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such resignation of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such resignation shall become
effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of such resigned Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c). From and after the effective date of any such resignation, references herein to the term “Issuing
Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such resigned Issuing Bank if the context shall so require. After the resignation of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the resigned Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights
and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

SECTION 2.6. Increase in the Total Commitments. (a) The Borrower may, without the consent of the Banks, the Administrative Agent
or the Issuing Banks, from time to time cause an increase in the Total Commitments (each, a “Commitment Increase”), whether or not the Total Commitments have been reduced pursuant to Section 4.5, by obtaining Commitments from
one or more additional Eligible Assignees that are not already Banks hereunder (each, a “New Bank”) and/or by allowing one or more existing Banks to increase their respective Commitments

  
 41 

 
(each, an “Increasing Bank”); provided that (i) each Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess
thereof, (ii) each Commitment Increase shall become effective as of a date (the “Increase Date”) that is at least 90 days prior to the Maturity Date then in effect, (iii) no such Commitment Increase shall result in the
Total Commitments exceeding $1,375,000,000, (iv) each New Bank and each Increasing Bank providing any portion of any Commitment Increase must be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, (v) no Bank shall be required to provide any such increase, and (vi) on the date of any request by the Borrower for a Commitment Increase and on the related Increase Date, the applicable
conditions set forth in Section 5.3 shall be satisfied. 
 (b) Each Commitment Increase must be requested by written notice from the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E. Each such notice shall specify (i) the proposed Increase Date, (ii) the amount of the requested Commitment Increase (which amount shall
conform to the requirements of Section 2.6(a)), (iii) the identity of each New Bank and/or each Increasing Bank that is participating in such Commitment Increase, and (iv) the amount of the respective Commitments of the then existing Banks
and the New Banks from and after the applicable Increase Date. If the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank approve the New Banks and/or Increasing Banks participating in such Commitment Increase (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
delayed or conditioned), the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the applicable New Banks and/or Increasing Banks shall execute a Commitment Increase Agreement, and such Commitment Increase shall be effective on the Increase
Date specified therein; provided that, as a condition to the effectiveness of any Commitment Increase, if requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) certified copies of resolutions
of the Board of Directors of the Borrower or the Executive Committee of such Board approving such Commitment Increase and (B) opinions of counsel for the Borrower (which may be in-house counsel), in form
and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, covering such matters covered by the opinions of counsel delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(c) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. On each Increase Date, upon
fulfillment of the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks (including each New Bank) and the Borrower of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase effected on such Increase Date and
shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Bank and each New Bank. 
 (c) The Borrower
acknowledges that, if the Total Commitments are increased on a non-pro-rata basis pursuant to any Commitment Increase and there are any outstanding Loans as of the
Increase Date for such Commitment Increase, prepayments and/or fundings of all or portions of certain Loans on such date may be required in order for each Bank to hold its Revolving Percentage of each outstanding Loan after giving effect to such
Commitment Increase (and any such prepayment or funding shall be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement). Effective upon each Commitment Increase, the amount of the participations held by each Bank in each Letter of Credit then
outstanding shall be adjusted such that, after giving effect to such adjustments, each Bank shall hold participations in each such Letter of Credit in accordance with the Revolving Percentage of such Bank after giving effect to such Commitment
Increase.

 SECTION 2.7. Extension Option. The Borrower may request that the Commitments
be extended for up to two additional one year periods by providing not less than 30 days’ written notice (the date of such notice, a “Notice Date”) to the Administrative Agent prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date. If a
Bank agrees, in its individual and sole discretion, to extend its Commitment (such Bank, an “Extending Bank”), it will notify the Administrative Agent, in writing, of its decision to do so no later than 20 days after the applicable
Notice Date. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower, in writing, of the Banks’ decisions no later than 25 days after such Notice Date. The Extending Banks’ Commitments will be extended for an additional year from the then
current Maturity Date so long as (i) the Commitments of the Extending Banks (after giving effect to any assumption by any Extending Banks of Commitments of Declining Banks as described below), together with the Commitments of any New Banks that
replace any Declining Banks, represent more than 50% of the Total Commitments then in effect, and (ii) on the date of any request by the Borrower to extend the Commitments, the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.3 shall be
satisfied. No Bank shall be required to consent to any such extension request or be required to increase its Commitment and any Bank that declines or does not respond to the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Commitments (a
“Declining Bank”) will have its Commitment terminated on the then existing Maturity Date (without regard to any extension of the Commitments of other Banks). The Borrower will have the right to accept Commitments from any Eligible
Assignee that is not a Bank in an aggregate amount up to the aggregate amount of the Commitments of any Declining Banks; provided that (i) the Extending Banks will have the right, subject to the approval of the Issuing Banks, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, to increase their Commitments in an aggregate amount up to the aggregate amount of the Declining Banks’ Commitments before the Borrower will be permitted to substitute any
Eligible Assignees for the Declining Banks (it being understood that the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall be able to allocate the amount of such Declining Banks’ Commitments among each Extending Bank in an amount
not to exceed the amount by which such Extending Bank agreed to increase its Commitment) and (ii) any Eligible Assignee proposed to be substituted for a Declining Bank (unless such Eligible Assignee is an affiliate of a Bank) must be approved
by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks, such approval, in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Borrower may only extend the Maturity Date twice during the term of this Agreement pursuant to this
Section 2.7. 
 SECTION 2.8. Defaulting Banks. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the
contrary, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank: 

(a) Commitment Fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 3.2(a);

 (b) the Commitment and Outstanding Extensions of Credit of such Defaulting Bank shall not be included in determining whether all Banks
(or each Bank) or the Majority Banks have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.1); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the
vote of a Defaulting Bank in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Bank or each Bank affected thereby if such Bank is an affected Bank; provided, further, that there shall not be any
amendment, modification or waiver (i) of any 

  
 43 

 
provision of Section 4.2 or Section 10.1 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, or (ii) causing the reduction of the percentage specified
in the definition of Majority Banks, or (iii) causing the consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its respective rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in each case without the consent
of such Bank; 
 (c) if any L/C Obligations exist at the time such Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank then; 

(i) all or any part of the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Bank shall be reallocated (effective as of the date such Bank
becomes a Defaulting Bank) among the non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages, but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting
Banks’ Outstanding Extensions of Credit plus such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Banks’ Commitments; 

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall,
within two Business Days following the Borrower’s receipt of written notice by the Administrative Agent, cash collateralize for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Banks only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting
Bank’s L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.2 for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding; 

(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure pursuant to clause
(ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c) with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure is cash
collateralized; 
 (iv) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure is reallocated pursuant to clause
(i) above, then the Letter of Credit participation fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s reallocated L/C Exposure shall be payable to
the non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with such non-Defaulting Banks’ Revolving Percentages after giving effect to such reallocation; and 

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant
to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Bank hereunder, all Letter of Credit participation fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Bank under
Section 2.5(c)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s unreallocated L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks, ratably based on the portion of such L/C Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank,
until and to the extent that such L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above; 

  
 44 

 (d) so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue,
amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Issuing Banks are satisfied that the Defaulting Bank’s then outstanding L/C Exposure, will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Banks
and, to the extent such 100% coverage is not achieved, by cash collateral which will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.8(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated
among non-Defaulting Banks in a manner consistent with Section 2.8(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Bank shall not participate therein). 

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action with respect to a Parent of any Bank shall occur
following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Bank has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations to extend credit generally (such Bank referenced in clauses
(i) and (ii), a “Disregarded Bank”), the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Issuing Banks are satisfied that the Disregarded Bank’s then outstanding L/C
Exposure, will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Disregarded Banks and, to the extent such 100% coverage is not achieved, by cash collateral which will be provided by the Borrower in the manner
consistent with Section 2.8(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among the non-Disregarded Banks in a manner consistent with
Section 2.8(c) (and such Disregarded Bank shall not participate therein). 
 In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower
and the Issuing Banks each agrees that a Defaulting Bank has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Bank to be a Defaulting Bank, then the L/C Exposures of the Banks shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Bank’s
Commitment, and on such date such Bank shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Banks as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Bank to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its
Revolving Percentage. 
 The rights and remedies against, and with respect to, a Defaulting Bank under this Section 2.8 are in addition
to, and cumulative and not in limitation of, all other rights and remedies that the Administrative Agent and each Bank, each Issuing Bank or the Borrower may at any time have against, or with respect to, such Defaulting Bank. 

SECTION 2.9. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any
Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder
which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and 
 (b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 

  
 45 

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

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution,
its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 
 (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the
write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority. 
 ARTICLE III 

PROVISIONS RELATING TO ALL LOANS 

SECTION 3.1. Evidence of Loans. (a) Each Bank shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Bank resulting from each Loan made by such Bank from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Bank from time to time under this Agreement. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.6(d) and a subaccount therein for each Bank, in which
shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made by each Bank through the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Type thereof and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from the Borrower to each Bank hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Bank’s share thereof. 

(c) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Bank maintained pursuant to Section 3.1(a) shall, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amount of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank or the Administrative Agent to maintain
the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans actually made to the Borrower by such Bank in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. 
 (d) Any Bank may request that the Loans made by such Bank be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare,
execute and deliver to such Bank a Note payable to such Bank. 
 SECTION 3.2. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the Available Commitment of such Bank on each day during the period from the date hereof to the
Termination Date. The accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable (i) quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December until the Termination Date and (ii) on the Termination Date. 

  
 46 

 (b) The Commitment Fees shall be calculated by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as the case may be, for the actual days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such Commitment Fees are
payable. 
 (c) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees in the amounts and on the dates previously
agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 3.3. Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the
unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by each Bank from the date of such Loan until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the times and at the rates per annum set forth below: 

(a) ABR Loans. Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal at all times to the lesser of (i) the Alternate Base
Rate plus the Applicable Rate and (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the Termination Date. 

(b) Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal at all times to the lesser of
(i) the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for the applicable Interest Period for such Loan plus the Applicable Rate and (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate, payable on the last day of such Interest Period and, with respect to Interest Periods of
six months or longer, on the ninetieth (90th) day after the commencement of the Interest Period and on each succeeding ninetieth (90th) day during such Interest Period, and on the Termination Date. In addition, interest on each Eurodollar Rate Loan
will be payable upon any payment or prepayment of such Eurodollar Rate Loan. 
 (c) Calculations. Interest that is determined by
reference to the Alternate Base Rate (to the extent based on the Prime Rate) shall be calculated by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as
the case may be, for the actual days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period in which such interest is payable and otherwise shall be calculated by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days (including the first day and excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. 

(d) Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement
Obligation, (ii) any interest payable thereon, or (iii) any Commitment Fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear
interest, payable from time to time on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (A) the Highest Lawful Rate and (B) the Default Rate, in each case from the date of such non-payment until
such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment). 
 (e) Determination Conclusive. Each determination of an interest
rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Banks in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to
the Borrower a statement showing in reasonable detail the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining the Eurodollar Rate. 

  
 47 

 SECTION 3.4. Reserve Requirements. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each
Bank that requests compensation under this Section 3.4 in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 4.8(b), so long as such Bank shall be required to maintain reserves against “Eurocurrency liabilities” under Regulation
D of the Board (or, so long as such Bank shall be required by the Board or by any other Governmental Authority to maintain reserves against any other category of liabilities that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on
Eurodollar Rate Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or against any category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Bank that includes any Eurodollar Rate Loans), an additional amount (determined by such Bank and notified to
the Borrower pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 4.8(b)) representing such Bank’s calculation or, if an accurate calculation is impracticable, reasonable estimate (using such method of allocation to such Loans of the Borrower
as such Bank shall determine in accordance with Section 4.8(a)) of the actual costs, if any, incurred by such Bank during the relevant Interest Period as a result of the applicability of the foregoing reserves to such Eurodollar Rate Loans,
which amount in any event shall not exceed the product of the following for each day of such Interest Period: 
 (i) the
principal amount of the relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Bank outstanding on such day; 
 (ii) the difference
between (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Eurodollar Rate(expressed as a decimal) applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan (expressed as a decimal), and the denominator of which is one minus the maximum rate (expressed as a decimal)
at which such reserve requirements are imposed by the Board or other Governmental Authority on such date, minus (B) such numerator; and 

(iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is 360. 

(b) The agreements in this Section 3.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder;
provided, however, that in no event shall the Borrower be obligated to reimburse or compensate any Bank for amounts contemplated by this Section 3.4 for any period prior to the date that is 90 days before the date upon which such
Bank requests in writing such reimbursement or compensation from the Borrower. 
 SECTION 3.5. Interest Rate Determination and
Protection. (a) Subject to clauses (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) of this Section 3.5, the rate of interest for each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be determined by the Administrative Agent two Business Days before the first day of
each Interest Period applicable to such Loan. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Banks of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Sections 3.3(a) and (b) hereof.

  
 48 

 (b) Subject to clauses (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) of this Section 3.5, if,
prior to the first day of any Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error)
that, by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period (including because the Eurodollar Rate is not available or is
not published on a current basis) or (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Banks that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the
cost to such Banks (as determined in good faith and certified by such Banks) of making or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Loans included in such Borrowing during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to
the Borrower and the Banks as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, (A) any Eurodollar Rate Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (B) any Loans that were to have
been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (C) any outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then applicable Interest Period, to ABR
Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Administrative
Agent will withdraw any such notice when the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference
Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement
Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any
other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such
Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such
Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Banks without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice
of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Banks comprising the Majority Banks. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the
then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any
amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (d) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Banks and the
Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion. 

  
 49 

 (e) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative
Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming
Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 
 (f)
The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Banks of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and
its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark
pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Bank (or group of
Banks) pursuant to this Section 3.5, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to
take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.5. 
 (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in
any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or Eurodollar Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such
Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such
Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for
any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently
displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark
Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 

(h) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request
for a Eurodollar Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a
request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or
such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. 

  
 50 

 SECTION 3.6. Voluntary Interest Conversion or Continuation of Revolving Loans.
(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing and, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Notice of Borrowing.
Thereafter, the Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, but subject to Section 3.7 below, elect to (i) convert Revolving Loans of one Type into Revolving Loans of another Type; (ii) convert Eurodollar Rate Loans for a
specified Interest Period into Eurodollar Rate Loans for a different Interest Period; or (iii) continue Eurodollar Rate Loans for a specified Interest Period as Eurodollar Rate Loans for the same Interest Period; provided,
however, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Banks, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, no Revolving Loan may be
converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Rate Loan. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent of such request by telephone, facsimile or e-mail (i) not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed interest
conversion or continuation in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurodollar Rate Loan and (ii) not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day preceding the proposed interest conversion in the case of a
conversion into an ABR Loan. Each telephonic notice of interest conversion/continuation given by the Borrower under this Section 3.6, shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly thereafter in writing. 

(c) Each written notice of interest conversion/continuation given by the Borrower under this Section 3.6 and each confirmation of an oral
notice of interest conversion/continuation given by the Borrower under this Section 3.6 shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (“Notice of Interest Conversion/Continuation”). Each such Notice of Interest
Conversion/Continuation shall specify therein (x) the requested date of such interest conversion or continuation; (y) the Revolving Loans to be converted or continued; and (z) if such interest conversion or continuation involves the
conversion into or continuation as Eurodollar Rate Loans, the duration of the Interest Period for each such Eurodollar Rate Loan. If any Notice of Interest Conversion/Continuation requests a conversion into or continuation as Eurodollar Rate Loans
but does not specify an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Upon receipt of any such Notice of Interest Conversion/Continuation, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof. Each Notice of Interest Conversion/ Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 

(d) If the Borrower shall fail to deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Interest Conversion/Continuation with respect to any
Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans by 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto in accordance with this Section 3.6, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so
notify the Borrower and the Banks (provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the conversion referred to below) and, unless such Revolving Loans are repaid as provided herein, such Revolving Loans will automatically, on
the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, convert into Eurodollar Rate Loans with a one month Interest Period. 

  
 51 

 SECTION 3.7. Funding Losses Relating to Eurodollar Rate Loans. (a) The Borrower
agrees, without duplication of any other provision under this Agreement, to indemnify each Bank and to hold each Bank harmless from any loss or expense that such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by the Borrower in
payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any Eurodollar Rate Loan, (ii) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan after the Borrower has given a notice
requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (iii) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement or (iv) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans or the conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans into ABR Loans, on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or a day that is not the scheduled
maturity date with respect thereto, including in each case, any such loss or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by such Bank or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The calculation of
all amounts payable to a Bank under this Section 3.7(a) shall be made pursuant to the method described in Section 4.8(a), but in no event shall such amounts payable with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan exceed the amounts that would
have been payable assuming such Bank had actually funded its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the applicable Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having
a maturity comparable to the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan; provided that each Bank may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the
calculation of amounts payable under this Section 3.7(a). 
 (b) The agreements in this Section 3.7 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder; provided, however, that in no event shall the Borrower be obligated to reimburse or compensate any Bank for amounts contemplated by this Section 3.7 for amounts
accruing prior to the date that is 90 days prior to the date upon which such Bank requests in writing such reimbursement or compensation from the Borrower. 

SECTION 3.8. Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Bank shall notify the
Administrative Agent that it has determined in good faith that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation or application of any law or regulation by any Governmental Authority (in each case occurring after the date of this
Agreement) makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts after the date of this Agreement that it is unlawful, for any Bank or its applicable lending office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar
Rate Loans or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder, (i) the obligation of such Bank to make, or to convert Revolving Loans into, or to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans as, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; (ii) the Borrower shall, at its option, either prepay in full all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Bank then outstanding, or convert all
such Revolving Loans to ABR Loans, on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Revolving Loans (or within such earlier period as required by law), accompanied, in the

  
 52 

 
case of any prepayments, by interest accrued thereon and any amounts payable under Section 3.7(a). Each Bank agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending
office for the Eurodollar Rate Loans due to such Bank that are affected by this Section 3.8, if such designation will avoid the illegality described in this Section 3.8 so long as such designation will not be disadvantageous to such Bank
as determined by such Bank in its sole discretion acting in good faith. 
 (b) For purposes of this Section 3.8, a notice to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) by any Bank pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall be effective on the date of receipt thereof by the Borrower. 

ARTICLE IV 
 INCREASED COSTS,
TAXES, PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS 
 SECTION 4.1. Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. (a) If, after the date of this Agreement, the
adoption of or any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by any Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank
or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date of this Agreement (provided that the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, Basel III and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives under, or issued in
connection with, the foregoing shall be deemed for all purposes of this Section 4.1 to be a change in Requirements of Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued): 

(i) shall (A) subject any Bank or Issuing Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any
Letter of Credit or any Application made by it, or (B) change the basis of taxation of payments to such Bank or Issuing Bank in respect thereof (except, in each case of (A) and (B), for Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes and Excluded Taxes);

 (ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against
assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Bank that is not otherwise included in the determination of the
Eurodollar Rate hereunder (except for amounts covered by Section 3.4 or any other Section hereof); or 
 (iii) shall
impose on such Bank any other condition; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the actual cost to such Bank, by an amount that such Bank
deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower
shall promptly pay such Bank, upon its demand in the manner set forth in Section 4.8(b), any additional amounts, computed by such Bank in accordance with Section 4.8(a), necessary to compensate such Bank for such actual increased cost or
reduced amount receivable that is attributable to Loans or 

  
 53 

 
Commitments (to the extent that such Bank has not already been compensated or reimbursed for such amounts pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement). If any Bank becomes entitled to claim
any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) from the Borrower, it shall promptly notify the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled in the manner set forth in
Section 4.8(b). 
 (b) If any Bank determines in good faith that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation or
application by any Governmental Authority of any law or regulation regarding capital adequacy or liquidity after the date of this Agreement or compliance by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank with any law or regulation or any
guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) made or issued after the date of this Agreement does or shall have the effect, as a result of such Bank’s obligations under this
Agreement or under any Letter of Credit, of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s or such corporation’s capital to a level below that which such Bank or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking
into consideration such Bank’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank,
from time to time as specified by such Bank in the manner set forth in Section 4.8(b), additional amounts, computed by such Bank in accordance with Section 4.8(a), sufficient to compensate such Bank or such corporation in the light of such
circumstances, to the extent that such Bank reasonably determines such reduction in rate of return is allocable to the existence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder. 

(c) The agreements contained in this Section 4.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable
hereunder; provided, however, that in no event shall the Borrower be obligated to reimburse or compensate any Bank for amounts contemplated by this Section 4.1 for any period prior to the date that is 90 days prior to the date
upon which such Bank requests in writing such reimbursement or compensation from the Borrower; provided that, to the extent that the adoption of or any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation or application thereof gives rise
to any amount(s) contemplated by this Section 4.1 on a retroactive basis, then the 90-day period referred to in the preceding proviso shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 SECTION 4.2. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments and Computations. (a) Other than payments made in accordance with the express
terms of this Agreement that are not required or permitted to be pro rata, each Borrowing of Loans by the Borrower from the Banks hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment or other fee, any reduction of the Commitments of
the Banks and any prepayment on account of principal and interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Percentages of the Banks. 

(b) The Borrower shall make each payment (including each prepayment) hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise,
without setoff or counterclaim (except as otherwise provided in Section 4.3), not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office in immediately available funds. The
Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest, Letter of Credit fees or commitment or other fees (to the extent received by the Administrative Agent) ratably to the

  
 54 

 
Banks according to the amounts of their respective Loans, L/C Obligations and Commitments in respect of which such payment is made, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount
payable to any Bank (to the extent received by the Administrative Agent) to such Bank, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made
on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, if such extension would cause payment of interest
on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. 

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks
hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such
assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Bank shall pay to the
Administrative Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during such period, times (ii) the amount of such Bank’s Revolving Percentage of such payment, times (iii) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including the date such amount is distributed to such Bank to the date on which such Bank’s Revolving Percentage of such payment shall have become immediately available
to the Administrative Agent and the denominator of which is 360. 
 (e) If any Bank shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it
pursuant to Section 2.5(a) or (e) or 9.7, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of
such Bank for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Bank’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated
account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Bank under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

 SECTION 4.3. Taxes. (a) Except as otherwise required by any Requirement of Law, any and all payments by or on behalf of the
Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings,
and all interest, penalties and additions to tax with respect thereto, in each case, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (“Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to
deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent), (i) to the extent such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower to any Bank or the Administrative Agent shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required 

  
 55 

 
deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.3) the Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum
it would have received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes been made, (ii) the Borrower shall be entitled to make such deductions, and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. “Excluded Taxes” means in the case of each Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any other recipient of any payment to be made by, on behalf of or on account of
any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (i) net income Taxes, branch profits Taxes and franchise Taxes imposed on it by (A) the United States of America or (B) any jurisdiction under the laws of
which such recipient is organized, or in which its principal office is located (or, in the case of any Bank, in which its applicable lending office is located), or imposed as a result of a present or former connection between it and the jurisdiction
(or political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) imposing such Tax (other than a connection arising solely from such recipient having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document), (ii) in the case of a Bank, any U.S. Federal withholding Taxes resulting from any Requirement of Law in effect (A) on the date such Bank becomes a party to this Agreement (other than pursuant to an
assignment request by the Borrower under Section 4.7(b)), (B) on the date on which such recipient designates a new lending office, or (C) where such recipient is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, on the date on which such
recipient becomes a party hereto or, solely with respect to any U.S. Federal withholding Taxes attributable to the affected partner, the date on which the affected partner becomes a partner of such recipient, except in each case pursuant to this
clause (ii), to the extent that amounts with respect to such Taxes were payable either (x) to such recipient’s assignor immediately before such recipient became a recipient hereunder, (y) to such recipient immediately before it
designated a new lending office, or (z) to such recipient immediately before the affected partner became a partner of such recipient, (iii) United States backup withholding Taxes, (iv) Taxes attributable to its failure to comply with
Section 4.3(e) or Section 4.3(f), and (v) any U.S. withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA. “Indemnified Taxes” means Taxes other than Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes. Whenever any Taxes or Other Taxes are paid by the
Borrower pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding sentence or Section 4.3(b), the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Bank or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, either (A) official
tax receipts or notarized copies of such receipts evidencing such payment within thirty (30) days of receiving such receipts or (B) if Borrower cannot comply with (A), as reasonably promptly after payment thereof, a certificate executed by
a Responsible Officer of the Borrower confirming that such Taxes or Other Taxes have been paid, together with evidence of such payment. 

(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay, in accordance with applicable law, any present or future Other Taxes for which Borrower has not
otherwise indemnified, compensated or reimbursed, or made payment on behalf of or with respect to, a Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) under this Agreement or any Loan Document. “Other Taxes” means (A) stamp
or documentary Taxes or (B) any other excise or property Taxes, in each case of (A) and (B), that arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Note or from the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of or otherwise with
respect to, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or the Loans, excluding all such Taxes that are imposed solely as the result of an assignment by a Bank of its interests, rights or benefits hereunder or under any other Loan Document (other than
Taxes resulting from an assignment requested by the Borrower under Section 4.7(b)). 

  
 56 

 (c) The Borrower will indemnify each Bank and the Administrative Agent for the full amount
of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.3) paid by such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. 

(d) Each Bank shall indemnify the Administrative Agent for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes that are attributable to
such Bank and that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith. A certificate as to the amount of
such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (e) 

(i) Each Bank (which, for purposes of this Section 4.3(e) and Section 4.3(f), shall include any Issuing Bank) that
is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two valid, original, properly completed and duly executed IRS Forms
W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax. 

(ii) Each Bank (or Transferee, if applicable) that is not a “United States person” as defined in
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Bank”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Bank from which the related participation
shall have been purchased) (A) two valid, original, properly completed and duly executed IRS Forms W-8BEN,
W-8BEN-E,W-8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY, as applicable
(together with any applicable underlying IRS forms or other applicable documentation) or any successor applicable form, as the case may be (subject to the remaining clauses hereof), (B) in the case of a
Non-U.S. Bank claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a statement substantially in the
form of Exhibit G and the applicable IRS Form W-8, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Bank
claiming complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax on payments under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (C) if such Non-U.S. Bank is claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax
treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, or any successor form thereto, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “interest” article of
such tax treaty, and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, an IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, or any successor form thereto, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or
“other income” article of such tax treaty, (D) if applicable, an 

  
 57 

 
IRS Form W-8ECI, or any successor form thereto, certifying that the payments received by such Bank are effectively connected with such Bank’s conduct
of a trade or business in the United States, (E) if such Bank is not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Loan Document (for example, where the Bank is a partnership or a Bank which has sold a participating interest in any Loan), an
IRS Form W-8IMY, on behalf of itself (or if it is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, on behalf of its owner), or any successor form thereto, accompanied by IRS Form W-9, IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit G, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable, or (F) any other form
prescribed by applicable requirements of U.S. federal income tax law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax properly completed and duly executed together with such supplementary documentation as may be
prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

(iii) All such forms described in this Section 4.3(e) shall be delivered by each Bank on or before the date which it
becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation) and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. In
addition, each Non-U.S. Bank also agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further originals of the said Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E,W-8ECI, W-8EXP, or W-8IMY (together with any
applicable underlying IRS forms or other applicable documentation) or any successor applicable form, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in
the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it to the Borrower. Each Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously
delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.3(e), a Non-U.S.
Bank shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 4.3(e) that such Non-U.S. Bank is not legally able to deliver. 

(iv) If a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if
such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Bank shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code)
and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Bank has or has
not complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 4.3(e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the
date of this Agreement. 

  
 58 

 (v) For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from
and after the Closing Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Banks 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). 
 (f) Without limiting Section 4.3(e), a
Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall
deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed
by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate if such Bank is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation. In addition, each Bank, if reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not
such Bank is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Bank shall not be required to provide such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 4.3(e)) if in such
Bank’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank. 

(g) On or before the date the Administrative Agent becomes a party to this Agreement, it shall provide to the Borrower copies of the
documentation prescribed in clause (i) or (ii) below, as applicable (together with all required attachments thereto): (i) IRS Form W-9 or any successor form thereto, or (ii) (A) IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor form thereto, and (B) with respect to payments received on account of any Bank, a U.S. branch withholding certificate on IRS Form W-8IMY or any
successor form evidencing its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. Person for U.S. federal withholding purposes. At any time thereafter, the Administrative Agent shall provide updated documentation previously provided (or a successor
form thereto) when any documentation previously delivered has expired or become obsolete or invalid or otherwise upon the reasonable request of the Borrower. Nothing in this Section 4.3(g) shall be construed to require the Administrative Agent
to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 

(h) If the Administrative Agent or any Bank determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received or utilized a
refund of, or offset with respect to, those Taxes or Other Taxes paid by Borrower or as to which it has been indemnified, compensated or reimbursed by the Borrower (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.3),
the Administrative Agent or such Bank shall within 20 days after such refund or utilization pay to the Borrower the amount of such refund or utilization to the extent that the Borrower paid such Taxes or Other Taxes or indemnified, compensated or
reimbursed the Administrative Agent or such Bank for such Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to this Section 4.3, or paid such additional amounts, net of any
out-of-pocket costs of the Administrative Agent or such Bank directly related to obtaining or utilizing such refund and without interest (other than

  
 59 

 
any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Bank, agrees to
repay the amount paid over to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 4.3(h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Bank in the event the Administrative
Agent or such Bank is required to repay such refund or utilized amount to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Bank, as applicable, be required to pay any
amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Bank in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the
Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. 

(i) The agreements in this Section 4.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder;
provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 4.3 shall require the Borrower to pay to any Bank or the Administrative Agent any duplicative amount (whether under this Section 4.3 or otherwise) in addition to that
for which Borrower has paid or for which it has already reimbursed, indemnified or compensated, or made payment on behalf of or with respect to, any Bank or the Administrative Agent under any other provision of this Agreement. 

SECTION 4.4. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Bank (a “Benefitted Bank”) shall at any time receive any payment
(other than pursuant to Section 2.7, 3.4, 3.7, 4.1 or 4.3) of all or part of its Revolving Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or
proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8.1(g) or 8.1(h), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Bank, if any, in respect of such other Bank’s Loans, Reimbursement
Obligations owing to it, respectively, or interest thereon, such Benefitted Bank shall purchase for cash from the other Banks a participating interest in such portion of each such other Bank’s Loans or Reimbursement Obligations owing to it,
respectively, or shall provide such other Banks with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Bank to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably
with each of the Banks; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Bank, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned,
to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to this Section 4.4 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment
(including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

SECTION 4.5. Optional Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments of the Banks
to make Loans shall terminate on the Termination Date. 

  
 60 

 (b) The Borrower shall have the right, without penalty or premium, upon at least three
(3) Business Days’ irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall give prompt notice to each Bank), to terminate in whole the Commitments or permanently, from time to time, to reduce ratably in part the unused portion
of the Commitments, provided that (i) each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (ii) no such termination or reduction shall be permitted
if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments made under Section 4.6 by the Borrower on the effective date thereof, the Total Outstanding Extensions of Credit then outstanding would exceed the Total Commitments then in effect, and
(iii) any notice of termination of the Commitments may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of any event or condition, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or
prior to the specified date) if such condition is not satisfied. Each reduction of Commitments pursuant to this Section 4.5 shall be applied pro rata to the Commitments of each Bank. If at any time, including after giving effect to any
reduction of Commitments pursuant to this Section 4.5, the Total Outstanding Extensions of Credit exceed the Total Commitments, the Borrower shall be obligated, first, to prepay the Loans in the amount of such excess, second, to
cash collateralize Letters of Credit to the extent that the aggregate amount of the L/C Obligations exceeds such Total Commitments after prepayment of all Loans. 

SECTION 4.6. Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (i) not later than
1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the same Business Day, in the case of a prepayment of ABR Revolving Loans and (ii) no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days before the date of prepayment (or such shorter or no
notice as may be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), in the case of a prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans, stating the aggregate principal amount of the prepayment and the Loans to be prepaid, prepay the outstanding principal amounts of such
Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid to the extent required by Section 3.3; provided, however, that
losses incurred by any Bank under Section 3.7 shall be payable with respect to each such prepayment in the manner set forth in Section 3.7. Any such notice provided pursuant to this Section 4.6 shall be irrevocable; provided
that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 4.5(b)(iii), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in
accordance with Section 4.5(b)(iii). Partial prepayments pursuant to this Section 4.6 with respect to any Tranche of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (a) $5,000,000 or an integral
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) the aggregate principal amount of such Tranche of Eurodollar Rate Loans then outstanding, as the case may be; provided that no partial prepayment of any Tranche of Eurodollar Rate Loans
may be made if, after giving effect thereto, Section 2.1(b) would be contravened. Partial prepayments with respect to ABR Revolving Loans shall be made in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (i) $1,000,000 or an integral
multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of ABR Revolving Loans then outstanding, as the case may be. 

  
 61 

 SECTION 4.7. Mitigation of Losses and Costs; Replacement of Banks.
(a) Any Bank claiming reimbursement from the Borrower under any of Sections 3.4, 3.7, 4.1 and 4.3 hereof shall use reasonable efforts (including, if requested by the Borrower, reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office of such
Bank) to mitigate the amount of such losses, costs, expenses and liabilities, if such efforts can be made and such mitigation can be accomplished without such Bank suffering (i) any economic disadvantage for which such Bank does not receive
full indemnity from the Borrower under this Agreement or (ii) any legal or regulatory disadvantage. 
 (b) If (i) any Bank
requests compensation under Section 4.1, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank pursuant to Section 4.3, (ii) any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank or
a Declining Bank or (iii) any Bank refuses to consent to any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof that requires the unanimous approval of all Banks, or the approval of each of the Banks
affected thereby (in each case in accordance with Section 10.1), and the consent of the Majority Banks shall have been obtained with respect to such amendment, modification, waiver or consent, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and
effort (including payment of any applicable processing and recordation fees), upon notice to such Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Bank to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions
contained in Section 10.6(c)), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment); provided that (A) the
Borrower shall have received (I) the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent with respect to any assignee that is not already a Bank hereunder (and if a Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank), which consent shall not
unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (II) the consent of such assignee to the assignment and (III) in the case of clause (b)(iii) above, the consent of such assignee to the proposed amendment, modification, waiver or consent,
(B) such Bank shall have received payment of all amounts owing to such Bank hereunder and under any other Loan Document (including any amounts arising under Section 3.7 as a consequence of such assignment), (C) in the case of any such
assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.1 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.3, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, (D) prior to any such
assignment, such Bank shall have taken no action under Section 4.7(a) so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.3 and (E) until such time as such assignment shall be
consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.3, as the case may be. A Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result
of a waiver by such Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

SECTION 4.8. Determination and Notice of Additional Costs and Other Amounts. (a) In determining the amount of any claim for
reimbursement or compensation under Sections 3.4, 3.7 and 4.1, each Bank may use any reasonable averaging, attribution and allocation methods consistent with such methods customarily employed by such Bank in similar situations. 

(b) Each Bank or, with respect to compensation claimed by it pursuant to Section 4.3, the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, will
(i) use its best efforts to notify the Borrower through the Administrative Agent (in the case of each Bank) of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement promptly after the occurrence thereof and (ii) notify the Borrower through
the Administrative Agent (in the case of each Bank) promptly after such Bank or the Administrative 

  
 62 

 
Agent, as the case may be, becomes aware of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement, in either case of (i) or (ii) if such event (for purposes of this Section 4.8(b), a
“Triggering Event”) will entitle such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to compensation pursuant to Section 3.4, 3.7, 4.1 or 4.3, as the case may be. Each such notification of a Triggering Event shall be
accompanied by a certificate of such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, setting forth the calculations and justification in reasonable detail such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Bank or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, as specified in Section 3.4, 3.7, 4.1 or 4.3, as the case may be, and certifying that such costs are generally being charged by such Bank to other similarly situated borrowers under similar credit
facilities, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Subject to Section 4.3(i), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank or to the Administrative Agent for its own account, as the case
may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten Business Days after its receipt of the same.

(a) Organizational Status of the Borrower. The Borrower (i) is validly organized and existing and in good standing
under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; (ii) is duly authorized or qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, each other jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of its Property
requires it to be so authorized or qualified to do business, except where the failure to be so duly authorized or qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect,
and (iii) has the corporate power and authority to conduct its business, as presently conducted. 
 (b)
Organizational Status of Significant Subsidiaries of the Borrower. Each Significant Subsidiary of the Borrower (i) is validly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and is duly
authorized or qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, each other jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of its Property requires it to be so authorized or qualified to do business, except where
the failure to be so validly organized and existing or duly authorized or qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) has the corporate,
partnership or other requisite power and authority to conduct its business, as presently conducted, except where the failure to have such power and authority, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 (c) Organizational Powers. The Borrower has the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform and
comply with its obligations under this Agreement, any Notes and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. This Agreement and each other Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the
Borrower. 

  
 66 

 (d) Authorization, No Conflict, Etc. The Borrowings by the Borrower
contemplated by this Agreement, the execution and delivery by the Borrower of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance by the Borrower of its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been duly
authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Borrower and do not and will not (i) violate any law or any order of any court or other Governmental Authority to which the Borrower is subject, (ii) violate the articles of
incorporation or bylaws or other organizational documents (each as amended from time to time) of the Borrower, (iii) violate or result in a default under any indenture, loan agreement or other agreement to which the Borrower or any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Borrower is a party or by which the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower, or any of their respective Property, is bound (except for such violations or defaults that, individually or in the aggregate, would not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect) or (iv) result in or require the creation or imposition of any material Lien upon any of the Properties of the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary not permitted under this Agreement.

 (e) Governmental Approvals and Consents. No authorization or approval or action by, and no notice to or filing
with, any Governmental Authority is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of, or for the Borrowings under, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, except (i) those that have been
obtained or made and (ii) such matters relating to performance as would ordinarily be done in the ordinary course of business after the Closing Date. 

(f) Obligations Binding. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party constitute the
legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms (assuming due and valid authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and such other Loan Documents by each
party other than the Borrower), except as such enforceability may be (i) limited by the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally and (ii) subject to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 

(g) Use of Proceeds, Margin Stock. The proceeds of the Loans will be used by the Borrower (i) to refinance its
obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement and (ii) for other general corporate purposes, including the repayment of Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower is
principally engaged in, or has as one of its important activities, the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, and no part of the proceeds of any Loan made to the Borrower will be used for any purpose
that would violate the provisions of the margin regulations of the Board. 

  
 67 

 (h) Title to Properties. The issued and outstanding Capital Stock
owned by the Borrower of each of its Significant Subsidiaries, whether such stock is owned directly or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries, is owned free and clear of any Lien, except Liens permitted under this Agreement. In addition,
each of the Borrower and each Significant Subsidiary has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property material to its business, except for defects in title and exceptions to leasehold interests that either
individually or in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and all such Properties are free and clear of any Lien except Liens permitted under this Agreement. 

(i) Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower is an “investment
company” as defined in, or otherwise subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 (j)
Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2019, there has been no event, development or circumstance that, as of the Closing Date, has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect. 

(k) Litigation. As of the Closing Date, there is no litigation, action, suit, investigation or other legal or
governmental proceeding by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the best knowledge of the Borrower, threatened in writing against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, at law or in equity, (i) relating to
the transactions under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or (ii) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse decision that would have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(l) ERISA. There is no event or events, individually or in the aggregate, that could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, arising out of or in connection with (i) any Reportable Event or the failure to satisfy the minimum funding standards (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) with respect to any
Plan that has occurred during the five-year period immediately preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, (ii) any failure of a Plan to comply with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, (iii) any
termination of a Single Employer Plan, (iv) any complete or partial withdrawal by the Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity from any Multiemployer Plan, (v) any Lien in favor of the PBGC or any Plan that has arisen during the
five-year period referred to in clause (i) above or (vi) a Multiemployer Plan being Insolvent. 
 (m) Financial
Statements. The consolidated financial statements of the Borrower as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the SEC with the Borrower’s 10-K for the period then ended, as
updated by the Borrower’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 19, 2020, copies of which have been delivered to the Banks, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated
financial condition and results of operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of such date and for the period then ended, in conformity with, as applicable, GAAP and, except as otherwise stated therein, consistently applied (in the case of
such unaudited statements, subject to year-end adjustments and the exclusion of detailed footnotes). 

  
 68 

 (n) Accuracy of Information. None of the documents or written
information (excluding estimates, financial projections and forecasts) furnished to the Banks by the Borrower in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Information”), contained, as of
the date such Information was furnished (or, if such Information expressly related to a specific date, as of such specific date), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state, as of the date such Information was furnished (or, if such
Information expressly related to a specific date, as of such specific date), any material fact (other than industry-wide risks normally associated with the types of businesses conducted by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) necessary to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading, as a whole. The estimates, financial projections and forecasts furnished to the Banks by the Borrower with respect to the transactions
contemplated under this Agreement were prepared in good faith and on the basis of information and assumptions that the Borrower believed to be reasonable as of the date such information was prepared (it being recognized by the Banks that such
estimates, financial projections and forecasts as they relate to future events are not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such estimates, financial projections and forecasts may differ from the
projected results set forth therein by a material amount). 
 (o) No Violation. The Borrower is not in violation of
any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably could be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(p) Subsidiaries. Schedule 6.1(p) attached hereto sets forth each Significant Subsidiary as of the date hereof.
Except as disclosed on Schedule 6.1(p), as of the date hereof the Borrower owns, directly or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries, all of the outstanding Capital Stock of each Significant Subsidiary, in each case free and clear
of any Liens not permitted under this Agreement. 
 (q) Senior Indebtedness. The Indebtedness of the Borrower under
this Agreement constitutes “Senior Debt” (or a similar term) of the Borrower under any indenture governing any Junior Subordinated Debt. 

(r) Taxes. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed all Federal, state and all other
material Tax returns that are required to be filed by it and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its Property and all other Taxes, fees or other charges
imposed on it or any of its Property by any Governmental Authority (other than any such Taxes, fees or other charges the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which
reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries), except where the failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; no Tax
Lien has been filed, and to the knowledge of the Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such Tax, fee or other charges (other than any Liens or claims that could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect). 

  
 69 

 (s) Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions. The Borrower has implemented
and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions, and the Borrower, its
Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, their respective officers, employees, directors and agents, are in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects. None of (a) the Borrower, any
Subsidiary or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (b) to the knowledge of the Borrower, any agent of the Borrower or any Subsidiary that will act in any capacity in connection with or
benefit from the credit facility established hereby, is a Sanctioned Person. Assuming that no Bank is a Sanctioned Person, no Borrowing or Letter of Credit, or use of proceeds thereof, or other transaction contemplated by this Agreement will result
in a violation by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any applicable Anti-Corruption Law or applicable Sanctions. 
 ARTICLE VII

Banks without charge; provided that such notice may be included in a certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(a)(iii). 

(b) Use of Proceeds. 

(i) The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans only for the purposes set forth in Section 6.1(g), and it will not use
any Letter of Credit or the proceeds of any Loan for any purpose that would violate the provisions of the margin regulations of the Board. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, engage principally, or as one of its
important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying, within the meaning of Regulation U, any Margin Stock. Letters of Credit will be issued only to support the general corporate purposes of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries. 

  
 72 

 (ii) The Borrower will not request any Borrowing or Letter of Credit, and
the Borrower shall not use, and shall procure that its Subsidiaries and, to their knowledge, their respective agents (in their capacity as agents, respectively, of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), shall not use the proceeds of any Borrowing
or Letter of Credit (A) to finance an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any Anti-Corruption
Laws, (B) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, or (C) that would result in the
violation of any Sanctions by any party hereto. 
 (c) Existence; Laws. The Borrower will, and will cause each
Significant Subsidiary to, do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence and all rights, licenses, permits and franchises; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit
any merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution otherwise permitted under this Agreement; and provided further that neither the Borrower nor any Significant Subsidiary shall be required to preserve or maintain any rights,
licenses, permits or franchises if the failure to maintain and preserve the same would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Significant
Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws and regulations applicable to it, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(d) Maintenance of Properties. The Borrower will, and will cause each Significant Subsidiary to, preserve and maintain

to repay other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the Notes. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrower
hereunder and under the Notes shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower. The Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Issuing

acceleration and all other notices of any kind whatsoever are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Bank or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Banks. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as
shall be reasonably directed by the Majority Banks (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Banks); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be
obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Banks. 

SECTION 9.6. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers and Other Banks. Each Bank
expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents and the Lead Arrangers nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates have made any representations
or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent or any Lead Arranger hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent or any Lead Arranger, as
applicable, to any Bank. Each Bank represents to the Agents and the Lead Arrangers that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any Lead Arranger or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement.
Each Bank also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any Lead Arranger or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit
analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the 

  
 84 

 
Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Banks by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty
or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower that may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. 

SECTION 9.7. Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify each Agent, each Lead Arranger and their respective affiliates and their and
their affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, partners, affiliates, agents, advisors, and controlling persons (each, an “Agent Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the
obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective applicable Revolving Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.7 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon
which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such applicable Revolving Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the payment of all amounts owing hereunder and the termination of the Commitments) be
imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Bank shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found to by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 9.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

SECTION 9.8. Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally
engage in any kind of business with the Borrower as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it and its
Commitment hereunder, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Bank” and “Banks” shall
include the each Agent in its individual capacity. 
 SECTION 9.9. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may
resign as Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the Banks and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Majority Banks shall appoint from
among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Sections 8.1(a), (g) or (h) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the
Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the 

  
 85 

 
Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s
rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of any amounts payable hereunder.
If a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been so appointed within 15 days after the resigning Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, the resigning Administrative Agent may then appoint a successor Administrative Agent who
shall be a financial institution engaged or licensed to conduct banking business under the laws of the United States with an office in the United States and that has total assets in excess of $500,000,000 and who shall serve as Administrative Agent
until such time, if any, as an Administrative Agent shall have been appointed by the Majority Banks (with the consent of the Borrower to the extent required above) as provided above. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and of Section 10.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. 
 SECTION 9.10. Co-Syndication Agents,
Co-Documentation Agents, Lead Arrangers and Global Coordinators. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Bank identified as a
“Co-Syndication Agent”, “Co-Documentation Agent”, “Lead Arranger” or “Global Coordinator” shall have the right, power,
obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document other than those applicable to all Banks as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Banks so identified shall have or be deemed to have any
fiduciary relationship with any Bank. Each Bank acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Banks so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or not taking action hereunder. 

SECTION 9.11. Certain ERISA Matters.

(a) Each Bank (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Bank party hereto, to, and
(y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Bank party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Bank party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the
avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement
satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Bank, the requirements of subsection
(a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Bank’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this
Agreement; or 
 (iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative
Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Bank.

(i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Bank or such Bank has provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the
immediately preceding clause (a), such Bank further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Bank party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Bank party hereto to the date such Person
ceases being a Bank party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that none of the Administrative Agent, or
any Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Bank
(including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

 provided that any notice, request or demand to or upon the Administrative Agent or the Banks shall not be effective
until received during such recipient’s normal business hours. 
 (b) The Borrower hereby acknowledges that (i) certain of the
Banks may be “public-side” Banks (i.e., Banks that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public Lender”)
and (ii) the Administrative Agent will make available to the Banks certain notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that initiates
or responds to the legal process (all such non-excluded information being referred to herein collectively as the “Communications”) on IntraLinks or another relevant website (whether a
commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent) (the “Platform”). The Borrower hereby agrees that (i) all Communications that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and
conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by marking Communications “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have
authorized the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Banks to treat such Communications as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for
purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws, it being understood that certain of such Communications may be subject to the confidentiality requirements hereof, (iii) all Communications marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to
be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor,” and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Communications that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for
posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public 

  
 89 

 
Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the Borrower shall be under no obligation to mark any Communications “PUBLIC,” and each Public Lender hereby waives its right to
receive any Communications that are not marked “PUBLIC”; and (B) the Administrative Agent shall treat Communications that are deemed to have been delivered based on notice pursuant to the last sentence of Section 7.1(a) as
“PUBLIC.” 
 (c) The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications
pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or circumstances. 

(d) Any party hereto may change its address, facsimile number or electronic mail address for notices and other communications hereunder by
notice to the other parties hereto. 
 SECTION 10.3. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in
exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Bank, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges
provided by law. 
 SECTION 10.4. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and
in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.5. Payment of Expenses; Indemnity; Limitation of Liability, Etc. 

(a) Expenses. The Borrower agrees (i) to pay all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses of the Global Coordinators associated with the syndication of the Facility, (ii) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution and delivery of, and any amendment, supplement or
modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable
fees and disbursements of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, counsel to the Administrative Agent (but excluding the fees or disbursements of any other counsel), (iii) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of its rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of the
special counsel to the Administrative Agent, (iv) to pay or reimburse each Bank and each Issuing Bank for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement, or at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of
a Default or an Event of Default, the preservation, of its rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, including (A) the reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel to such Bank and (B) other out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit
and (v) without duplication of any other provision contained in this Agreement or any 

  
 90 

 
Notes, to pay, indemnify, and hold each Bank and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees (for which each Bank has not been otherwise reimbursed by the
Borrower under this Agreement), if any, that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or
modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith. 

(b) Indemnity. Without duplication of any other provision contained in this Agreement or any Notes, the Borrower agrees to pay,
indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, each Global Coordinator, each Lead Arranger, each Bank, each Issuing Bank and each Agent together with their respective affiliates and their and their affiliates’ respective directors, officers,
employees, agents, trustees, advisors and Affiliates (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”), harmless from and against, any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (and shall reimburse each Indemnified Person upon demand
for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing), incurred by any Indemnified Person arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of the
execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or the use, or proposed use, of proceeds of the Loans (all
the foregoing in this clause (b), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that (x) the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to an Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising
from or in connection with (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or (B) the material breach by such Indemnified Person of the express terms of this Agreement, in the case of each of the foregoing clauses
(A) and (B) as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and (y) without limiting the provisions of Section 4.3(c), this Section 10.5(b) shall not
apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim; AND PROVIDED FURTHER THAT, SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATIONS DESCRIBED
HEREIN, IT IS THE INTENTION OF THE BORROWER TO INDEMNIFY THE INDEMNIFIED PERSONS AGAINST THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR OWN NEGLIGENCE. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.5(b)
applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, any of the Borrower’s directors, security holders, affiliates, creditors, an Indemnified Person or any other
Person, whether or not an Indemnified Person is otherwise a party to this Agreement. 
 (c) Limitation of Liability. Each party
hereto hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to claim or recover from any other party hereto any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising
out of, in connection with, or as a result of the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or the
use, or proposed use, of proceeds of the Loans; provided that nothing contained in this paragraph (c) shall limit the Borrower’s indemnification provisions contained in paragraph (b) above. 

  
 91 

 (d) The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all
other amounts payable hereunder and termination of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 10.6. Effectiveness, Successors and Assigns;
Participations; Assignments. (a) This Agreement shall become effective on the date hereof and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Banks, each Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, all future
holders of the Loans and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Bank. 

(b) Any Bank may, without the consent of or notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, in the ordinary course of
its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other financial institutions or Bank Affiliates (a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Bank, any Note held by
such Bank, any Commitment of such Bank or any other interest of such Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, such Bank’s obligations under this
Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Bank shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Bank shall remain the holder of any such Loan and Commitment or other interest for all purposes
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and, except with respect to the matters set forth in Section 10.1, the amendment of which requires the consent of all of the Banks, the participation agreement between the selling Bank and the Participant may not restrict such
Bank’s voting rights hereunder. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.1 and 4.3 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 4.3(e) and
Section 4.3(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.3(e) and Section 4.3(f) shall be delivered to the participating Bank)) to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section; provided that such Participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 4.1 and 4.3 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (c) of this Section and
(ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.1 or 4.3, with respect to any participation, than its participating Bank would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater
payment results from an adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or
other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. The Borrower further agrees that each Participant, to the extent provided in its participation, shall be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.4 and 3.7 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time; provided that (i) no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant
to such Sections than the selling Bank would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation sold by such selling Bank to such Participant had no such sale occurred and (ii) each such sale of participating interests
shall be to a “qualified purchaser”, as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Except as expressly provided in this Section 10.6(b), no Participant shall be a
third-party beneficiary of or have any rights 

  
 92 

 
under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents. Each Bank that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary
agent of the Borrower, shall 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 Bank 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, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other
obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Bank, each
of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is a party to any Loan Document, and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation
for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 
 (c) Except as set forth below, the Banks shall be permitted
to assign all or a portion of their Loans and Commitments to one or more financial institutions (“Purchasing Banks”) with the consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, of (x) the Borrower; provided that, (A) no
consent of the Borrower shall be required if (i) the Purchasing Bank is a Bank or a Bank Affiliate or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (B) the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment
unless it shall have notified the Administrative Agent of its refusal to give such consent within 10 Business Days following the Borrower’s receipt from the transferor Bank of a fully-completed Assignment and Acceptance (as defined below) with
respect to such assignment, delivered in accordance with Section 10.2), (y) the Administrative Agent, unless the assignment is from a Bank to its Bank Affiliate, and (z) each Issuing Bank, unless the assignment is from a Bank to its Bank
Affiliate, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit C (an “Assignment and Acceptance”), executed by such Purchasing Bank and such transferor Bank (and by the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent and each Issuing Bank, as applicable) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided that (i) such Purchasing Bank is a “qualified purchaser” as defined under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (ii) each such sale shall be of a uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of the Commitment of such Bank, (iii) each such sale shall be in an
aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount representing the entire Commitment of such transferor Bank) if such sale is not to an existing Bank, and (iv) after giving effect to such sale, the transferor Bank shall (to
the extent that it continues to have any Commitment hereunder) have a Commitment of not less than $5,000,000, provided that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Bank and its Bank Affiliates, if any. Upon such execution,
delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance (the “Transfer Effective Date”), (i) the Purchasing Bank thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the
extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Bank hereunder with the Commitments as set forth therein and (ii) the transferor Bank thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and
Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of a transferor Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such transferor Bank
shall cease to be a party hereto). Such Assignment 

  
 93 

 
and Acceptance shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Bank and the resulting adjustment of Revolving
Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Bank of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Bank under this Agreement. On or prior to the Transfer Effective Date determined pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, (i) appropriate entries shall be made in the accounts of the transferor Bank and the Register evidencing such assignment and releasing the Borrower from any and all obligations to the transferor Bank in respect of the assigned Loan
or Loans and (ii) appropriate entries evidencing the assigned Loan or Loans shall be made in the accounts of the Purchasing Bank and the Register as required by Section 3.1 hereof. In the event that any Notes have been issued in respect of
the assigned Loan or Loans, such Notes shall be marked “cancelled” and surrendered by the transferor Bank to the Administrative Agent for return to the Borrower. 

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2(a) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Bank from time to time. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, the entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks may (and, in the case of any Loan or other obligations hereunder not evidenced by a Note,
shall) treat, each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of a Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding
any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Loan or other obligation hereunder shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or
any Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance
executed by a transferor Bank and Purchasing Bank (and, in the case of a Purchasing Bank that is not then a Bank Affiliate, by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and
processing fee of $3,500, the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance on the Transfer Effective Date determined pursuant thereto, record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such
acceptance and recordation to the Banks and the Borrower. 
 (f) Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any
portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge
or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Purchasing Bank for such Bank as a party
hereto. The Borrower hereby agrees that, upon request of any Bank at any time and from time to time after the Borrower has made its initial Borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall provide to such Bank, at the Borrower’s own expense, a
promissory note, substantially in the form of Exhibit D evidencing the Loans or L/C Obligations, as the case may be, owing to such Bank.

 SECTION 10.7. Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Banks provided by
law, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Bank shall have the right, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without prior notice to the Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent
permitted by applicable law), to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or
indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Bank or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower existing under
this Agreement which are then due and payable. Each Bank agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Bank, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not
affect the validity of such setoff and application. 
 SECTION 10.8. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of
the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be
maintained with Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information,
notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 10.2), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated
hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like
import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed
pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of
a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved
by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by
or on behalf of any other party hereto believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons without further verification thereof and without any further obligation to review the appearance or
form of any such Electronic signature and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Bank, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
each party hereto hereby (i) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Banks,
and the Borrower, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic 

  
 95 

 
images of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (ii) each of the
parties hereto may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of
such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record). 

SECTION 10.9. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 10.10. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the
agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Bank relative to the subject
matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 10.11. GOVERNING LAW.
(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.11(a) to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement or in any Note or any other Loan Documents
shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any rights which any Bank may have under applicable federal law relating to the amount of interest which any Bank may contract for, take, receive or charge in respect of any Loans, including any right to
take, receive, reserve and charge interest at the rate allowed by the laws of the state where such Bank is located. To the extent that Texas law is applicable to the determination of the Highest Lawful Rate, the Banks and the Borrower agree that
(i) if Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code, as amended, is applicable to such determination, the weekly rate ceiling as computed from time to time shall apply, provided that, to the extent permitted by such Article, the
Administrative Agent may from time to time by notice to the Borrower revise the election of such interest rate ceiling as such ceiling affects the then current or future balances of the Loans; and (ii) the provisions of Chapter 346 of the
Texas Finance Code, as amended shall not apply to this Agreement or any Note issued hereunder. 
 SECTION 10.12. Submission to
Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 
 (a) submits for itself and
its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the Courts
of the State of New York sitting in New York County, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 

  
 96 

 (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such
courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or
certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid to such party at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; and 

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or
shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 10.13. Acknowledgments. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

 (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents; 
 (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Bank has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Borrower
arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and the Banks, on one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is
solely that of debtor and creditor; and 
 (c) no joint venture exists among the Banks or among the Borrower and the Banks.

 SECTION 10.14. Limitation on Agreements. All agreements between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Bank, whether now
existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of demand being made in respect of an amount due under any Loan Document or otherwise, shall the
amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to the Administrative Agent or any Bank for the use, forbearance, or detention of the money to be loaned under this Agreement, any Notes or any other Loan Document or otherwise or for the payment or performance of
any covenant or obligation contained herein or in any other Loan Document exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If, as a result of any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any of such documents, at the time performance of
such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by applicable usury law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if, from any such circumstance,
the Administrative Agent or any Bank shall ever receive interest or anything that might be deemed interest under applicable law that would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, such amount that would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction
of the principal amount owing on account of such Bank’s Loans or the amounts owing on other obligations of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Bank under any Loan Document and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive
interest exceeds the unpaid principal balance of such 

  
 97 

 
Bank’s Loans and the amounts owing on other obligations of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Bank under any Loan Document, as the case may be, such excess shall be refunded to
the Borrower. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Administrative Agent or any Bank for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Bank shall, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full of the principal (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest on account of such
indebtedness shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, it is understood and agreed that if at any time the rate of interest that accrues on the outstanding principal balance of
any Loan shall exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, the rate of interest that accrues on the outstanding principal balance of any Loan shall be limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, but any subsequent reductions in the rate of interest that accrues on the
outstanding principal balance of any Loan shall not reduce the rate of interest that accrues on the outstanding principal balance of any Loan below the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest accrued on the outstanding principal
balance of any Loan equals the amount of interest that would have accrued if such interest rate had at all times been in effect. The terms and provisions of this Section 10.14 shall control and supersede every other provision of all Loan
Documents. 
 SECTION 10.15. Removal of Bank. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, the
Borrower may, at any time in its sole discretion, remove any Bank upon 15 Business Days’ written notice to such Bank and the Administrative Agent (the contents of which notice shall be promptly communicated by the Administrative Agent to each
other Bank), such removal to be effective at the expiration of such 15-day notice period; provided, however, that no Bank may be removed hereunder at a time when an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing. Each notice by the Borrower under this Section 10.15 shall constitute a representation by the Borrower that the removal described in such notice is permitted under this Section 10.15. Concurrently with such
removal, the Borrower shall pay to such removed Bank all amounts owing to such Bank hereunder (including any amounts arising under Section 3.7 as a consequence of such removal) and under any other Loan Document in immediately available funds.
Upon full and final payment hereunder of all amounts owing to such removed Bank, such Bank shall make appropriate entries in its accounts evidencing payment of all Loans hereunder and releasing the Borrower from all obligations owing to the removed
Bank in respect of the Loans hereunder and surrender to the Administrative Agent for return to the Borrower any Notes of the Borrower then held by it. Effective immediately upon such full and final payment, such removed Bank will not be considered
to be a “Bank” for purposes of this Agreement, except for the purposes of any provision hereof that by its terms survives the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the amounts payable hereunder. Effective immediately upon such
removal, the Commitment of such removed Bank shall immediately terminate, such Bank’s participation share in any outstanding Letters of Credit shall immediately terminate and such participation share shall be divided among the remaining Banks
according to their Revolving Percentages. Such removal will not, however, affect the Commitments of any other Banks hereunder. 
 SECTION
10.16. Confidentiality. Each of the Banks and the Administrative Agent agrees to maintain, and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any third party recipient of the information described in this Section 10.16 to maintain,
any information 

  
 98 

 
delivered or made available by the Borrower to it (including any information obtained pursuant to Section 7.1), confidential from anyone other than Persons employed or retained by such party
who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the transactions contemplated hereunder; provided that nothing shall prevent any Bank or the Administrative Agent from disclosing such information
(i) to any other Bank or any Affiliate of any Bank, (ii) pursuant to subpoena or upon the order of any court or administrative agency having jurisdiction over such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, (iii) upon the
request or demand of any Governmental Authority or self-regulatory body, in each case, having jurisdiction over such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, (iv) if such information has been publicly disclosed (other than by
reason of disclosure by any Bank or the Administrative Agent in breach of its obligations under this Section 10.16), (v) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation to which either the Administrative Agent, any Bank, the
Borrower or their respective Affiliates may be a party relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (vi) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (vii) to the Administrative
Agent’s or such Bank’s, as the case may be, legal counsel, independent auditors and other professional advisors and agents involved in the administration of the Loans hereunder, (viii) to market data collectors, such as league table,
or other service providers to the lending industry, in respect of information regarding the closing date, size, type, purpose of, and parties to, this Agreement, or (ix) to any actual or proposed Participant, Purchasing Bank, hedge counterparty
in respect of this Agreement or pledgee (each, a “Transferee”) that has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.16 or provisions at least as restrictive as those in this Section 10.16. To the
extent permitted by applicable law, in the event that any Bank or the Administrative Agent is legally requested or required to disclose any confidential information pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) (unless such request (X) is from a bank
regulatory agency or in connection with an examination of a Bank’s records by bank examiners and (Y) does not target or impact Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) or (v) of this Section 10.16, such party shall promptly notify
the Borrower of such request or requirement prior to disclosure so that Borrower may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive compliance with the terms of this Agreement. If, however, in the opinion of counsel for such party, such party is
nonetheless, in the absence of such order or waiver, compelled to disclose such confidential information or otherwise stand liable for contempt or suffer possible censure or other penalty or liability, then such party may disclose such confidential
information without liability to the Borrower; provided, however, that such party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the disclosure of such information. Subject to the exceptions above to disclosure of information, each of the
Banks and the Administrative Agent agrees that it shall not publish, publicize, or otherwise make public any information regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the written consent of the Borrower, in its sole
discretion. 
 SECTION 10.17. Officer’s Certificates. It is not intended that any certificate of any officer of
the Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent or any Bank pursuant to this Agreement shall give rise to any personal liability on the part of such officer. 

SECTION 10.18. USA Patriot Act. Each Bank and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank) hereby notifies the
Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify
and record information that identifies the Borrower, which 

  
 99 

 
information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with
the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by each Bank and the Administrative Agent to
maintain compliance with the Patriot Act. 
 SECTION 10.19. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. The Borrower acknowledges and
agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (a) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Lead
Arranger, any Global Coordinator, any Issuing Bank or any Bank, on the other hand, is intended to be or has been created in respect of this Agreement, irrespective of whether any such Person has advised or is advising the Borrower or any of its
Affiliates on other matters, (b) each of the Administrative Agent, the other Agents, the Lead Arrangers, the Global Coordinators, the Issuing Banks and the Banks, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the other hand, have an
arm’s length business relationship that does not directly or indirectly give rise to, nor do the Borrower and its Affiliates rely on, any fiduciary duty to them on the part of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Lead Arranger, any
Global Coordinator, any Issuing Bank or any Bank, (c) the Borrower and its Affiliates are capable of evaluating and understanding, and each of the Borrower and its Affiliates understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and by the other Loan Documents, (d) the Borrower and its Affiliates have been advised that the Administrative Agent, the other Agents, the Lead Arrangers, the Global Coordinators, the Issuing Banks
and the Banks are engaged in a broad range of transactions that may involve interests that differ from the interests of the Borrower and its Affiliates and no such Person has any obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Borrower
or any of its Affiliates, (e) the Borrower and its Affiliates have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate, and (f) each of the Administrative Agent, the other Agents,
the Lead Arrangers, the Global Coordinators, the Issuing Banks and the Banks has been, is, and will be acting solely as a principal and, except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing by it and the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will
not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or any other Person or entity in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.20. Amendment and Restatement of Existing Credit Agreement. The Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

“Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the
Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1⁄2 of 1%, (b) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, and (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1%. For the
avoidance of doubt, if the Alternate Base Rate as determined pursuant to the foregoing would be less than 1%, such rate shall be deemed to be 1%. If the Alternate Base Rate is being used as an alternate rate of interest pursuant to Section 3.5
(for the avoidance of 
  

	2 	 RBC Capital Markets is a brand name for the capital markets business of Royal Bank of Canada and its
affiliates. 

 
doubt, only until the Benchmark Replacement has been determined pursuant to Section 3.5(c)), then the Alternate Base Rate shall be the greater of clauses (a) and (b) above and shall be
determined without reference to clause (c) above. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate shall take effect at the opening of business on the day specified in the public announcement of such change in the Prime
Rate. 
 “Anti-Corruption Laws” means all laws, rules, and regulations of any jurisdiction applicable to the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from time to time concerning or relating to bribery or corruption, including, without limitation, the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977.

the Commitment Fees payable hereunder, as they case may be, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “Eurodollar Rate Margin”, “ABR Margin” or “Commitment Fee Rate”, as the case may be, based upon
the Designated Ratings by S&P and Moody’s, respectively, applicable on such day: 
  

													
	 Designated

	  	Eurodollar
Rate Margin	 	 	ABR Margin	 	 	Commitment Fee
Rate	 
	 Higher than A/A2
	  	 	1.000	% 	 	 	0.000	% 	 	 	0.075	%

level, the Applicable Rate shall be based upon the higher of such Designated Ratings; (ii) by two levels, the Applicable Rate shall be based upon the level between such Designated Ratings; (iii) by more than two levels, the Applicable Rate
shall be based upon the level which is one level above the lower of such Designated Ratings; (b) if only one of the two Rating Agencies issues a Designated Rating, the Applicable Rate shall be based upon such Designated Rating; (c) if the
Designated Ratings established by either of the two Rating Agencies shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of such Rating Agency), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the
applicable Rating Agency (it being understood that a change in outlook status (e.g., watch status, negative outlook status) does not constitute a change in any Designated Rating for purposes hereof); and (d) if the rating system of either
Rating Agency shall change, or if either Rating Agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall negotiate in good faith if necessary to amend this definition and the
definitions of “Designated Rating” and “Rating Agencies” to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of Designated Ratings from such Rating Agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the
Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the Designated Rating of such Rating Agency most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

applicable, any tenor for such Benchmark or payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Benchmark, as applicable, that is or may be used for determining the length of an Interest Period pursuant to this Agreement as of such date

Person becomes the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has had a receiver, conservator, trustee, administrator, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person charged with the reorganization or liquidation of its
business appointed for it, or, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any such proceeding or appointment; provided
that a Bankruptcy Event shall not result solely by virtue of any ownership interest, or the acquisition of any ownership interest, in such Person by a Governmental Authority or instrumentality thereof, so long as such ownership interest does not
result in or provide such Person with immunity from the jurisdiction of courts within the United States or from the enforcement of judgments or writs of attachment on its assets or permit such Person (or such Governmental Authority or
instrumentality) to reject, repudiate, disavow or disaffirm any contracts or agreements made by such Person. 

“Benchmark” means, initially, Eurodollar Rate; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR
Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to Eurodollar Rate or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark”
means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to clause (c) or clause (d) of Section 3.5. 

“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set forth in the order below
that can be determined by the Administrative Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date: 
 (1) the sum of:
(a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 
 (3) the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has
been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate
or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for dollar-denominated
syndicated credit facilities at such time and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 
 provided
that, in the case of clause (1), such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion;
provided further that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event, and the delivery of a Term SOFR Notice, on the applicable Benchmark
Replacement Date the “Benchmark Replacement” shall revert to and shall be deemed to be the sum of (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, as set forth in clause (1) of this definition (subject to the
first proviso above). 

  
 4 

 If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1), (2) or
(3) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with
an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Interest Period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement: 

(1) for purposes of clauses (1) and (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the first alternative set

publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no
longer representative.

such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 8.2(g), the Borrower shall be in default of such covenant. The Borrower may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary;
provided that such designation shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by such Subsidiary of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation shall only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness
is permitted under this Agreement calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be
in existence following such designation.

liability or any of the powers under that Bail-In Legislation that are related to or ancillary to any of those powers. 

SECTION 1.2. Classification of Loans and Borrowings. For purposes of this Agreement, Loans may be classified and referred to by Class
(e.g., a “Revolving Loan”) or by Type (e.g., a “Eurodollar Loan” or an “ABR Loan”). Borrowings also may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving Borrowing”) or by Type (e.g., a
“Eurodollar Borrowing” or an “ABR Borrowing”). 
 SECTION 1.3. Other Definitional Provisions. 

  
 30 

 (a) Unless otherwise specified therein, all terms defined in this Agreement shall have such
defined meanings when used in the other Loan Documents or any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto. 

(b) As used herein and in the other Loan Documents, and any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto,
(i) the words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”, (ii) the word “incur” shall be construed to mean incur, create, issue,
assume, become liable in respect of or suffer to exist (and the words “incurred” and “incurrence” shall have correlative meanings), (iii) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same
meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, Capital Stock, securities, revenues, accounts, leasehold interests and contract rights, (iv) references to agreements or other
Contractual Obligations shall, unless otherwise specified, be deemed to refer to such agreements or Contractual Obligations as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, and (v) references to any Person shall,
unless otherwise specified, be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns. 
 (c) The words “hereof”,
“herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and Section, Schedule and Exhibit references are
to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. 
 (d) The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the
singular and plural forms of such terms. 
 SECTION 1.4. Accounting Terms; GAAP. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, all terms of an accounting or financial nature in this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with GAAP; provided that if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision of this
Agreement to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Majority Banks request an
amendment to any provision of this Agreement for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in
effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, GAAP will be
deemed for all purposes hereof to treat leases that would have been classified as operating leases in accordance with GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2014, in a manner consistent with the treatment of such leases under GAAP as in effect on
December 31, 2014, notwithstanding any modifications or interpretive changes thereto or implementations of any such modifications or interpretive changes that may have occurred thereafter. 

SECTION 1.5. Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by reference to the Eurodollar
Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London

  
 31 

 
interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to
the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the
London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry
initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 3.5(c) and (d) provide the mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 3.5(f),
of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration,
submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without
limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 3.5(c) or (d), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 3.5(e)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any
such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Eurodollar Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its
discontinuance or unavailability. 
 SECTION 1.6. Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter
of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document related
thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or
not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such times. 
 SECTION 1.7. Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in
connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or
liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the
first date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time.

 ARTICLE II 

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT 

SECTION 2.1. The Commitments. 

(a) Each Bank severally agrees, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to make revolving credit loans (each such
loan, a “Revolving Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) such Bank’s
Outstanding Extensions of Credit exceeding such Bank’s Commitment or (ii) the Total Outstanding Extensions of Credit exceeding the Total Commitments; provided that no Revolving Loan shall be made as a Eurodollar Rate Loan with an
Interest Period ending after the Termination Date; provided, further, that the Borrower shall ensure that no Loan shall be outstanding for more than 365 consecutive days. 

(b) Each Revolving Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars and shall consist of Revolving Loans of the same Type made on the same day by the
Banks ratably according to their respective Revolving Percentages. Each Revolving Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans by the Borrower shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof;
provided that no more than ten Eurodollar tranches shall be outstanding at any time. Each Revolving Borrowing of ABR Loans by the Borrower shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess
thereof. Within the limits of the applicable Commitments, the Borrower may borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 5.6 and reborrow Revolving Loans under this Section 2.1. The principal amount outstanding on the Revolving Loans and all other
amounts accrued hereunder shall be due and payable on the Termination Date, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. 
 SECTION
2.2. Procedure for Revolving Loan Borrowing. 
 (a) The Borrower may borrow Revolving Loans on any Business Day during the period
from and including the Closing Date to and excluding the Termination Date, provided that the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable oral notice or written notice pursuant to a notice of borrowing, in substantially the form
of Exhibit A hereto including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (“Notice
of Borrowing”), which shall be signed by the Borrower and shall specify therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing and
(iv) Interest Period for the Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowing (in the case of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans): 

(i) not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the
case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans; 

  
 33 

 (ii) not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day
immediately preceding the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing of Early Funding ABR Loans; and 
 (iii)
not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the same Business Day of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing of any other ABR Loans. 
 With
respect to any oral notice of borrowing given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall promptly thereafter confirm such notice in writing pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Bank thereof. Each Bank shall, before 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the requested Borrowing Date, make available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office, in immediately available funds, such Bank’s applicable Revolving
Percentage of such Borrowing; provided, however, that, in the event of a requested ABR Loan with respect to which the Borrower has delivered its Notice of Borrowing on the Business Day immediately preceding the requested Borrowing Date
(an “Early Funding ABR Loan”), each Bank shall make its applicable Revolving Percentage of such Borrowing available before 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the requested Borrowing Date. The Administrative Agent shall, no later
than 4:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such date (or no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time), in the case of an Early Funding ABR Loan), make available to the Borrower the proceeds of the Revolving Loans received by the Administrative Agent
hereunder by crediting such account of the Borrower which the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall from time to time designate. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank at least two hours prior to the applicable time described in clause
(a) above by which such Bank is required to deliver its funds to the Administrative Agent with respect to any Borrowing that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank’s applicable Revolving Percentage of such
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.2(a) and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If such amount is made available to the Administrative Agent on a date after such date of Borrowing, such Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an amount
equal to the product of (i) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during such period, times (ii) the amount of such Bank’s applicable Revolving Percentage of such Borrowing, times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which
is the number of days that elapse from and including such date of Borrowing to the date on which such Bank’s applicable Revolving Percentage of such Borrowing shall have become immediately available to the Administrative Agent and the
denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Bank with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.2(b) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Bank shall repay to the
Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Revolving Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If such Bank’s applicable Revolving Percentage of such Borrowing is
not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Bank within one (1) Business Day of such date of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum, equal to
(i) the Alternate Base Rate (in the case of ABR Loans) or (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans), on demand, from the Borrower. 

  
 34 

 (c) The failure of any Bank to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall
not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make the Loan to be made by such other Bank on the date of any
Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.3. [Reserved]. 

SECTION 2.4. [Reserved]. 

SECTION 2.5. Letters of Credit. (a) L/C Commitment. 

(i) [Reserved]. 

(ii) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 6.1
(on the Closing Date) and 6.2 (upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit)), each Issuing Bank, in reliance on the agreements of the other Banks set forth in Section 2.5(d), agrees to issue standby letters of credit (the “Letters of
Credit”) for the account of the Borrower in support of obligations (including performance, bid and similar bonding obligations and credit enhancement) of the Borrower and its Affiliates on any Business Day on or after the Closing Date and
prior to the Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Issuing Bank; provided that no Issuing Bank shall issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (A) the L/C Obligations would
exceed the L/C Commitment or (B) the Total Outstanding Extensions of Credit then outstanding would exceed the Total Commitments then in effect and provided, further, that no Issuing Bank shall be required, without the consent of
such Issuing Bank, to issue Letters of Credit in excess of such Issuing Bank’s applicable L/C Commitment at any time outstanding for each such Issuing Bank. 

(iii) Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars and shall be a standby letter of credit issued to support
obligations of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, contingent or otherwise, and expire no later than the Maturity Date. 

(iv) No Issuing Bank shall at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict
with, or cause such Issuing Bank or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed on such Issuing Bank by, any applicable Requirement of Law. 

(b) Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that an Issuing Bank (i) issue a
Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Bank at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of such Issuing Bank or (ii) extend, modify or increase the amount of an existing Letter of
Credit by delivering to such Issuing Bank at its address for notices specified herein a notice identifying the 

  
 35 

 
Letter of Credit to be extended, modified or increased, the proposed date of such extension, modification or increase, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information
as shall be necessary to extend, modify or increase such Letter of Credit. Upon receipt of any Application or a request for an extension, modification or increase of an existing Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank will process such Application or
request and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit (or an amendment to such existing Letter of Credit, as applicable) requested thereby (but in no event shall any Issuing Bank be required to issue any Letter of Credit (or extension, modification
or increase of an existing Letter of Credit) earlier than two Business Days after its receipt of the Application or request therefor, as applicable) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit (or amendment thereof, as applicable) in a form
satisfactory to the Borrower to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by such Issuing Bank and Borrower. The relevant Issuing Bank shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit (or amendment thereof, as applicable) to the Borrower
promptly following the issuance thereof and notify the Banks of the amount thereof. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the Application or other agreement submitted by
the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 

(c) Fees, Commissions and Other Charges. 

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the L/C Participants in accordance with their
respective Revolving Percentages, a Letter of Credit participation fee with respect to their participations in each Letter of Credit, which shall accrue at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate for Eurodollar Rate Loans then in effect,
calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year, on the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit for each day during
the period from the last L/C Fee Payment Date (or, if later, the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) to the date on which such payment is due hereunder. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant
Issuing Bank, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, which shall accrue at the rate per annum equal to 0.20%, calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year, on the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank for each day during the period from the last L/C Fee Payment Date to the date
upon which such payment is due hereunder. Such Letter of Credit participation fees and fronting fees shall be payable in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date and shall be nonrefundable. 

(ii) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse each Issuing Bank for such normal and customary
costs and reasonable expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Bank in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. 

(iii) The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the relevant Issuing Bank and the
L/C Participants all fees received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this Section 2.5(c). 

  
 36 

 (d) L/C Participations. 

(i) Each Issuing Bank irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce each Issuing Bank
to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Bank, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C Participant’s own account
and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in each Issuing Bank’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the aggregate amount of drawings under Letters of Credit
that have not then been reimbursed pursuant to Section 2.5(e). Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Issuing Bank that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which such Issuing Bank is not reimbursed
in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Bank upon demand at such Issuing Bank’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s
Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed. Each Bank acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this Section 2.5(d)(i) in respect of Letters of
Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the
Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(ii) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to an Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(d)(i) in respect
of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit is not paid to such Issuing Bank within one Business Day after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Bank on
demand an amount equal to the product of (A) such amount, times (B) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate as quoted by the relevant Issuing Bank, during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date
on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Bank, times (C) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid
by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 2.5(d)(i) is not in fact made available to the relevant Issuing Bank by such L/C Participant within three (3) Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Bank shall be entitled
to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the Alternate Base Rate. A certificate of the relevant Issuing Bank submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts
owing under this subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 (iii) Whenever, at any time after any
Issuing Bank has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 2.5(d)(i), such Issuing Bank receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit
(whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Issuing Bank), or any payment of 

  
 37 

 
interest on account thereof, such Issuing Bank will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment
received by such Issuing Bank shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Bank, such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Bank the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Bank to it. 

(e) Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. (i) The Borrower shall reimburse each Issuing Bank for any payment that such Issuing
Bank makes under a Letter of Credit on or before the date of such payment if the Borrower receives notice of such payment at or before 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date such payment is made by such Issuing Bank; provided,
however, that, if the Borrower does not receive notice of such payment at or before such time on such date or does not reimburse such Issuing Bank under this Section 2.5(e)(i), then Section 2.5(e)(ii) shall apply. Each such payment
shall be made to the relevant Issuing Bank at its address for notices specified herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds. 

(ii) Notwithstanding Section 6.2, each drawing under any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to constitute a Borrowing of ABR
Loans in the amount of such drawing unless the Borrower has reimbursed the relevant Issuing Bank under Section 2.5(e)(i). The Borrowing Date with respect to each such Borrowing shall be deemed to be the date of such drawing. 

(f) Obligations Absolute. 

(i) The Borrower’s payment obligations under Section 2.5(e) shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under
any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against the relevant Issuing Bank or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit,
other than a defense based upon the gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(ii) The Borrower also agrees with each Issuing Bank that no Issuing Bank shall be responsible for, and the Borrower’s
Reimbursement Obligations under Section 2.5(e) shall not be affected by, among other things, (i) the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid,
fraudulent or forged, (ii) any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, (iii) any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any
beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee, (iv) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (v) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter
of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (vi) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the
provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder or under any Letter of Credit. 

  
 38 

 (iii) No Issuing Bank shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption
or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions caused by such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as
determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(iv) The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit
or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be binding on
the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Bank to the Borrower. 
 (g) Letter of Credit Payments. If any
draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower by telephone (confirmed in writing) of the date and amount thereof and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make a
payment thereunder. The responsibility of such Issuing Bank to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit,
be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit. 

(h) Application. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the
provisions of this Section 2.5, the provisions of this Section 2.5 shall control. 
 (i) Replacement, Termination or
Resignation of an Issuing Bank. 
 (i) Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the
Borrower, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such replacement of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all
unpaid fees accrued for the account of such replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (A) the applicable successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of
an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (B) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such
successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing
Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

(ii) Any Issuing Bank may be terminated at any time upon not less than 10 Business Days’ written notice by the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such termination of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such termination shall become effective, the

  
 39 

 
Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the terminated Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c). After the effective date of the termination of an Issuing Bank
hereunder, (i) such Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such termination, but shall
not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit and (ii) if no Letter of Credit previously issued by such Issuing Bank is then outstanding and no L/C Exposure in respect of any such Letter of Credit then exists, such terminated Issuing
Bank shall not be deemed an Issuing Bank for purposes of any provisions hereof or the other Loan Documents which require the consent or approval of each Issuing Bank (provided that such terminated Issuing Bank’s consent shall be required for
any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that affects the rights or duties of such terminated Issuing Bank hereunder). 

(iii) Any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time after which such Issuing Bank is no longer a Bank upon not
less than 15 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks of any such resignation of such Issuing Bank. At the time any such resignation shall become
effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of such resigned Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c). From and after the effective date of any such resignation, references herein to the term “Issuing
Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such resigned Issuing Bank if the context shall so require. After the resignation of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the resigned Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights
and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

SECTION 2.6. Increase in the Total Commitments. (a) The Borrower may, without the consent of the Banks, the Administrative Agent
or the Issuing Banks, from time to time cause an increase in the Total Commitments (each, a “Commitment Increase”), whether or not the Total Commitments have been reduced pursuant to Section 5.5, by obtaining Commitments from
one or more additional Eligible Assignees that are not already Banks hereunder (each, a “New Bank”) and/or by allowing one or more existing Banks to increase their respective Commitments (each, an “Increasing
Bank”); provided that (i) each Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof, (ii) each Commitment Increase shall become effective as of a date (the
“Increase Date”) that is at least 90 days prior to the Maturity Date then in effect, (iii) no such Commitment Increase shall result in the Total Commitments exceeding $600,000,000, (iv) each New Bank and each Increasing
Bank providing any portion of any Commitment Increase must be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, (v) no Bank shall be required to provide
any such increase, and (vi) on the date of any request by the Borrower for a Commitment Increase and on the related Increase Date, the applicable conditions set forth in Section 6.3 shall be satisfied. 

  
 40 

 (b) Each Commitment Increase must be requested by written notice from the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E. Each such notice shall specify (i) the proposed Increase Date, (ii) the amount of the requested Commitment Increase (which amount shall conform to the
requirements of Section 2.6(a)), (iii) the identity of each New Bank and/or each Increasing Bank that is participating in such Commitment Increase, and (iv) the amount of the respective Commitments of the then existing Banks and the New
Banks from and after the applicable Increase Date. If the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank approve the New Banks and/or Increasing Banks participating in such Commitment Increase (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned), the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the applicable New Banks and/or Increasing Banks shall execute a Commitment Increase Agreement, and such Commitment Increase shall be effective on the Increase Date
specified therein; provided that, as a condition to the effectiveness of any Commitment Increase, if requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) certified copies of resolutions of the
Board of Directors of the Borrower or the Executive Committee of such Board approving such Commitment Increase and (B) opinions of counsel for the Borrower (which may be in-house counsel), in form and
substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, covering such matters covered by the opinions of counsel delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(c) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. On each Increase Date, upon
fulfillment of the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Banks (including each New Bank) and the Borrower of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase effected on such Increase Date and
shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Bank and each New Bank. 
 (c) The Borrower
acknowledges that, if the Total Commitments are increased on a non-pro-rata basis pursuant to any Commitment Increase and there are any outstanding Loans as of the
Increase Date for such Commitment Increase, prepayments and/or fundings of all or portions of certain Loans on such date may be required in order for each Bank to hold its Revolving Percentage of each outstanding Loan after giving effect to such
Commitment Increase (and any such prepayment or funding shall be subject to the other provisions of this Agreement). Effective upon each Commitment Increase, the amount of the participations held by each Bank in each Letter of Credit then
outstanding shall be adjusted such that, after giving effect to such adjustments, each Bank shall hold participations in each such Letter of Credit in accordance with the Revolving Percentage of such Bank after giving effect to such Commitment
Increase. 
 SECTION 2.7. Extension Option. The Borrower may request that the Commitments be extended for up to two additional
one year periods by providing not less than 30 days’ written notice (the date of such notice, a “Notice Date”) to the Administrative Agent prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date. If a Bank agrees, in its individual and
sole discretion, to extend its Commitment (such Bank, an “Extending Bank”), it will notify the Administrative Agent, in writing, of its decision to do so no later than 20 days after the applicable Notice Date. The Administrative
Agent will notify the Borrower, in writing, of the Banks’ decisions no later than 25 days after such Notice Date. The Extending Banks’ Commitments will be extended for an additional year from the then current Maturity Date so long as
(i) the Commitments of the Extending Banks (after giving effect to any assumption by any Extending Banks of Commitments of Declining Banks as described below), together with the Commitments of any New Banks that replace any Declining Banks,
represent more than 50% of the Total Commitments then in effect, and (ii) on the date of any request by the Borrower to extend the 

  
 41 

 
Commitments, the applicable conditions set forth in Section 6.3 shall be satisfied. No Bank shall be required to consent to any such extension request or be required to increase its
Commitment and any Bank that declines or does not respond to the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Commitments (a “Declining Bank”) will have its Commitment terminated on the then existing Maturity Date (without regard
to any extension of the Commitments of other Banks). The Borrower will have the right to accept Commitments from any Eligible Assignee that is not a Bank in an aggregate amount up to the aggregate amount of the Commitments of any Declining Banks;
provided that (i) the Extending Banks will have the right, subject to the approval of the Issuing Banks, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, to increase their Commitments in an aggregate amount up to
the aggregate amount of the Declining Banks’ Commitments before the Borrower will be permitted to substitute any Eligible Assignees for the Declining Banks (it being understood that the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower,
shall be able to allocate the amount of such Declining Banks’ Commitments among each Extending Bank in an amount not to exceed the amount by which such Extending Bank agreed to increase its Commitment) and (ii) any Eligible Assignee
proposed to be substituted for a Declining Bank (unless such Eligible Assignee is an affiliate of a Bank) must be approved by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks, such approval, in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned. The Borrower may only extend the Maturity Date twice during the term of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.7. 

SECTION 2.8. Defaulting Banks. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, if any Bank
becomes a Defaulting Bank, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank: 
 (a)
Commitment Fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 3.2(a); 

(b) the Commitment and Outstanding Extensions of Credit of such Defaulting Bank shall not be included in determining whether
all Banks (or each Bank) or the Majority Banks have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 11.1); provided, that this clause (b) shall not
apply to the vote of a Defaulting Bank in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Bank or each Bank affected thereby if such Bank is an affected Bank; provided, further, that there shall not
be any amendment, modification or waiver (i) of any provision of Section 5.2 or Section 11.1 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, or (ii) causing the reduction of the percentage
specified in the definition of Majority Banks, or (iii) causing the consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its respective rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in each case without
the consent of such Bank; 
 (c) if any L/C Obligations exist at the time such Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank then; 

(i) all or any part of the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Bank shall be reallocated (effective as of the date such Bank
becomes a Defaulting Bank) among the non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages, but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting
Banks’ Outstanding Extensions of Credit plus such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Banks’ Commitments; 

  
 42 

 (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can
only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, within two Business Days following the Borrower’s receipt of written notice by the Administrative Agent, cash collateralize for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Banks only the
Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.2 for so long as
such L/C Exposure is outstanding; 
 (iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Bank’s L/C
Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c) with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting
Bank’s L/C Exposure is cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure is
reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the Letter of Credit participation fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s reallocated L/C
Exposure shall be payable to the non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with such non-Defaulting Banks’ Revolving Percentages after giving effect to such reallocation;
and 
 (v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Bank’s L/C Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized
pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Bank hereunder, all Letter of Credit participation fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Bank
under Section 2.5(c)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s unreallocated L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks, ratably based on the portion of such L/C Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing
Bank, until and to the extent that such L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above; 

(d) so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of
Credit, unless the Issuing Banks are satisfied that the Defaulting Bank’s then outstanding L/C Exposure, will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Banks and, to the extent such 100%
coverage is not achieved, by cash collateral which will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.8(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Banks in a manner consistent with Section 2.8(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Bank shall not participate therein). 

  
 43 

 If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action
with respect to a Parent of any Bank shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Bank has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations to extend credit
generally (such Bank referenced in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Disregarded Bank”), the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Issuing Banks are satisfied that the
Disregarded Bank’s then outstanding L/C Exposure, will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Disregarded Banks and, to the extent such 100% coverage is not achieved, by cash collateral which will
be provided by the Borrower in the manner consistent with Section 2.8(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among the non-Disregarded Banks
in a manner consistent with Section 2.8(c) (and such Disregarded Bank shall not participate therein). 
 In the event that the
Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Issuing Banks each agrees that a Defaulting Bank has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Bank to be a Defaulting Bank, then the L/C Exposures of the Banks shall be readjusted to reflect the
inclusion of such Bank’s Commitment, and on such date such Bank shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Banks as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Bank to hold such Revolving
Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage. 
 The rights and remedies against, and with respect to, a Defaulting Bank under this
Section 2.8 are in addition to, and cumulative and not in limitation of, all other rights and remedies that the Administrative Agent and each Bank, each Issuing Bank or the Borrower may at any time have against, or with respect to, such
Defaulting Bank. 
 SECTION 2.9. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial
Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution
arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities
arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and 
 (b) the
effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 
 (i)
a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 
 (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such
liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of
ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of
the applicable Resolution Authority.

 ARTICLE III 

PROVISIONS RELATING TO ALL LOANS 

SECTION 3.1. Evidence of Loans. (a) Each Bank shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Bank resulting from each Loan made by such Bank from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Bank from time to time under this Agreement. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 11.6(d) and a subaccount therein for each Bank, in which
shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made by each Bank through the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Type thereof and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to
become due and payable from the Borrower to each Bank hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Bank’s share thereof. 

(c) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Bank maintained pursuant to Section 3.1(a) shall, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amount of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank or the Administrative Agent to maintain
the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans actually made to the Borrower by such Bank in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. 
 (d) Any Bank may request that the Loans made by such Bank be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare,
execute and deliver to such Bank a Note payable to such Bank. 
 SECTION 3.2. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the Available Commitment of such Bank on each day during the period from the date hereof to the
Termination Date. The accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable (i) quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December until the Termination Date and (ii) on the Termination Date. 

(b) The Commitment Fees shall be calculated by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as the case may be, for the actual days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such Commitment Fees are payable. 

  
 45 

 (c) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees in the
amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 3.3. Interest. The
Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by each Bank from the date of such Loan until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the times and at the rates per annum set forth below: 

(a) ABR Loans. Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal at all times to the lesser of (i) the Alternate Base
Rate plus the Applicable Rate and (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the Termination Date. 

(b) Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal at all times to the lesser of
(i) the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for the applicable Interest Period for such Loan plus the Applicable Rate and (ii) the Highest Lawful Rate, payable on the last day of such Interest Period and, with respect to Interest Periods of
six months or longer, on the ninetieth (90th) day after the commencement of the Interest Period and on each succeeding ninetieth (90th) day during such Interest Period, and on the Termination Date. In addition, interest on each Eurodollar Rate Loan
will be payable upon any payment or prepayment of such Eurodollar Rate Loan. 
 (c) Calculations. Interest that is determined by
reference to the Alternate Base Rate (to the extent based on the Prime Rate) shall be calculated by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as
the case may be, for the actual days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period in which such interest is payable and otherwise shall be calculated by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days (including the first day and excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. 

(d) Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement
Obligation, (ii) any interest payable thereon, or (iii) any Commitment Fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear
interest, payable from time to time on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (A) the Highest Lawful Rate and (B) the Default Rate, in each case from the date of such non-payment until
such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment). 
 (e) Determination Conclusive. Each determination of an interest
rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Banks in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to
the Borrower a statement showing in reasonable detail the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining the Eurodollar Rate. 

  
 46 

 SECTION 3.4. Reserve Requirements. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each
Bank that requests compensation under this Section 3.4 in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 5.8(b), so long as such Bank shall be required to maintain reserves against “Eurocurrency liabilities” under Regulation
D of the Board (or, so long as such Bank shall be required by the Board or by any other Governmental Authority to maintain reserves against any other category of liabilities that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on
Eurodollar Rate Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or against any category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Bank that includes any Eurodollar Rate Loans), an additional amount (determined by such Bank and notified to
the Borrower pursuant to the provisions set forth in Section 5.8(b)) representing such Bank’s calculation or, if an accurate calculation is impracticable, reasonable estimate (using such method of allocation to such Loans of the Borrower
as such Bank shall determine in accordance with Section 5.8(a)) of the actual costs, if any, incurred by such Bank during the relevant Interest Period as a result of the applicability of the foregoing reserves to such Eurodollar Rate Loans,
which amount in any event shall not exceed the product of the following for each day of such Interest Period: 
 (i) the
principal amount of the relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Bank outstanding on such day; 
 (ii) the difference
between (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Eurodollar Rate (expressed as a decimal) applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan (expressed as a decimal), and the denominator of which is one minus the maximum rate (expressed as a decimal)
at which such reserve requirements are imposed by the Board or other Governmental Authority on such date, minus (B) such numerator; and 

(iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is 360. 

(b) The agreements in this Section 3.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder;
provided, however, that in no event shall the Borrower be obligated to reimburse or compensate any Bank for amounts contemplated by this Section 3.4 for any period prior to the date that is 90 days before the date upon which such
Bank requests in writing such reimbursement or compensation from the Borrower. 
 SECTION 3.5. Interest Rate Determination and
Protection. (a) Subject to clauses (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) of this Section 3.5, the rate of interest for each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be determined by the Administrative Agent two Business Days before the first day of
each Interest Period applicable to such Loan. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Banks of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Sections 3.3(a) and (b) hereof.

 (b) Subject to clauses (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h) of this Section 3.5, if, prior to the first day of any Interest Period
for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the
London interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period or (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Banks that the Eurodollar
Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks (as determined in 

  
 47 

 
good faith and certified by such Banks) of making or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Loans included in such Borrowing during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give written
notice thereof to the Borrower and the Banks as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, (A) any Eurodollar Rate Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (B) any Loans
that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (C) any outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then applicable Interest
Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans. The
Administrative Agent will withdraw any such notice when the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the
Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark
Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or
consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement
Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice
of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Banks without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time,
written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Banks comprising the Majority Banks. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of
the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any
amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (d) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Banks and the Borrower a
Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion. 

(e) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further
action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

  
 48 

 (f) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Banks of (i) any
occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark
Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any
Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Bank (or group of Banks) pursuant to this Section 3.5, including any determination with respect to a
tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding
absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.5. 

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the
implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or Eurodollar Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that
publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information
announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable
or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a
Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of
“Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 
 (h) Upon the
Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans to be made, converted or continued
during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that
a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. 

  
 49 

 SECTION 3.6. Voluntary Interest Conversion or Continuation of Revolving Loans.
(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing and, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Notice of Borrowing.
Thereafter, the Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, but subject to Section 3.7 below, elect to (i) convert Revolving Loans of one Type into Revolving Loans of another Type; (ii) convert Eurodollar Rate Loans for a
specified Interest Period into Eurodollar Rate Loans for a different Interest Period; or (iii) continue Eurodollar Rate Loans for a specified Interest Period as Eurodollar Rate Loans for the same Interest Period; provided,
however, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Banks, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, no Revolving Loan may be
converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Rate Loan. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent of such request by telephone, facsimile or e-mail (i) not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed interest
conversion or continuation in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurodollar Rate Loan and (ii) not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day preceding the proposed interest conversion in the case of a
conversion into an ABR Loan. Each telephonic notice of interest conversion/continuation given by the Borrower under this Section 3.6, shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly thereafter in writing. 

(c) Each written notice of interest conversion/continuation given by the Borrower under this Section 3.6 and each confirmation of an oral
notice of interest conversion/continuation given by the Borrower under this Section 3.6 shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (“Notice of Interest Conversion/Continuation”). Each such Notice of Interest
Conversion/Continuation shall specify therein (x) the requested date of such interest conversion or continuation; (y) the Revolving Loans to be converted or continued; and (z) if such interest conversion or continuation involves the
conversion into or continuation as Eurodollar Rate Loans, the duration of the Interest Period for each such Eurodollar Rate Loan. If any Notice of Interest Conversion/Continuation requests a conversion into or continuation as Eurodollar Rate Loans
but does not specify an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Upon receipt of any such Notice of Interest Conversion/Continuation, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof. Each Notice of Interest Conversion/ Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 

(d) If the Borrower shall fail to deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Interest Conversion/Continuation with respect to any
Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans by 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto in accordance with this Section 3.6, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so
notify the Borrower and the Banks (provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the conversion referred to below) and, unless such Revolving Loans are repaid as provided herein, such Revolving Loans will automatically, on
the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, convert into Eurodollar Rate Loans with a one month Interest Period.

 SECTION 3.7. Funding Losses Relating to Eurodollar Rate Loans. (a) The Borrower
agrees, without duplication of any other provision under this Agreement, to indemnify each Bank and to hold each Bank harmless from any loss or expense that such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by the Borrower in
payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any Eurodollar Rate Loan, (ii) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan after the Borrower has given a notice
requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (iii) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement or (iv) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans or the conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans into ABR Loans, on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or a day that is not the scheduled
maturity date with respect thereto, including in each case, any such loss or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by such Bank or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The calculation of
all amounts payable to a Bank under this Section 3.7(a) shall be made pursuant to the method described in Section 5.8(a), but in no event shall such amounts payable with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan exceed the amounts that would
have been payable assuming such Bank had actually funded its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the applicable Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and having
a maturity comparable to the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan; provided that each Bank may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the
calculation of amounts payable under this Section 3.7(a). 
 (b) The agreements in this Section 3.7 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder; provided, however, that in no event shall the Borrower be obligated to reimburse or compensate any Bank for amounts contemplated by this Section 3.7 for amounts
accruing prior to the date that is 90 days prior to the date upon which such Bank requests in writing such reimbursement or compensation from the Borrower. 

SECTION 3.8. Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Bank shall notify the
Administrative Agent that it has determined in good faith that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation or application of any law or regulation by any Governmental Authority (in each case occurring after the date of this
Agreement) makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts after the date of this Agreement that it is unlawful, for any Bank or its applicable lending office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar
Rate Loans or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder, (i) the obligation of such Bank to make, or to convert Revolving Loans into, or to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans as, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; (ii) the Borrower shall, at its option, either prepay in full all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Bank then outstanding, or convert all
such Revolving Loans to ABR Loans, on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Revolving Loans (or within such earlier period as required by law), accompanied, in the case of any prepayments, by interest
accrued thereon and any amounts payable under Section 3.7(a). Each Bank agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for the Eurodollar Rate Loans due to such Bank that are affected by this
Section 3.8, if such designation will avoid the illegality described in this Section 3.8 so long as such designation will not be disadvantageous to such Bank as determined by such Bank in its sole discretion acting in good faith. 

(b) For purposes of this Section 3.8, a notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) by any Bank pursuant to
paragraph (a) above shall be effective on the date of receipt thereof by the Borrower.

 ARTICLE IV 

GUARANTY 
 SECTION 4.1. The
Guaranty. Subject to Section 10.12 and clause (vii) of Section 11.1, each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantees to each Bank, each Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent as hereinafter provided, as primary
obligor and not as surety, the prompt payment of the Obligations in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms
thereof. The Guarantors hereby further agree that if any of the Obligations are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise), the Guarantors
will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at
extended maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any
other of the Loan Documents, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not exceed an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under
applicable domestic or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other similar laws or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law. 

SECTION 4.2. Obligations Unconditional. Subject to Section 10.12 and clause (vii) of Section 11.1, the obligations of
the Guarantors under Section 4.1 are joint and several, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to
therein, or any substitution, release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 4.2 that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances. Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrower or any other Guarantor for amounts paid under this Article IV until such time as the
Obligations (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim has been made) have been paid in full and the Commitments have expired or terminated. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described
above: 

  
 52 

 (a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any
performance of or compliance with any of the Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; 
 (b) any of
the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Loan Documents, shall be done or omitted; 

(c) the maturity of any of the Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any
respect, or any right under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Loan Documents, shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Obligations or any security therefor shall be released, impaired or
exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; 
 (d) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any other
holder of the Obligations as security for any of the Obligations shall fail to attach or be perfected; or 
 (e) any of the Obligations
shall be determined to be void or voidable (including, without limitation, for the benefit of any creditor of any Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of any Guarantor). 

With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all
notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Bank exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Loan
Documents, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations. 
 SECTION 4.3.
Reinstatement. 
 The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article IV shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that
for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any applicable domestic or foreign bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership or other similar law or otherwise. 
 SECTION 4.4. Certain Additional Waivers. 

Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of recourse to security for the Obligations, except through the exercise of
rights of subrogation pursuant to Section 4.2 and through the exercise of rights of contribution pursuant to Section 4.6.  

  
 53 

 SECTION 4.5. Remedies. 

The Guarantors agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent
and the other holders of the Obligations, on the other hand, the Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as specified in Section 9.2 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances
specified in said Section 9.2) for purposes of Section 4.1 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing the Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any
other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or the Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), the Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by
the Guarantors for purposes of Section 4.1.  
 SECTION 4.6. Rights of Contribution. 

The Guarantors agree among themselves that, in connection with payments made hereunder, each Guarantor shall have contribution rights against
the other Guarantors as permitted under applicable law. Such contribution rights shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the obligations of such Guarantors under the Loan Documents and no Guarantor shall exercise such rights of
contribution until all Obligations (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim has been made) have been paid in full and the Commitments have expired or terminated. 

SECTION 4.7. Guarantee of Payment; Continuing Guarantee. 

The Guaranty in this Article IV is a guaranty of payment and not of collection, is a continuing guaranty, and shall apply to all Obligations
whenever arising. 
 ARTICLE V 

INCREASED COSTS, TAXES, PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS 

SECTION 5.1. Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. (a) If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of or any change in any law
or regulation or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by any Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made
subsequent to the date of this Agreement (provided that the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, Basel III and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives under, or issued in connection with, the foregoing shall be
deemed for all purposes of this Section 5.1 to be a change in Requirements of Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued): 

(i) shall (A) subject any Bank or Issuing Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any
Letter of Credit or any Application made by it, or (B) change the basis of taxation of payments to such Bank or Issuing Bank in respect thereof (except, in each case of (A) and (B), for Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes and Excluded Taxes);

  
 54 

 (ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit,
compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Bank that is not
otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate hereunder (except for amounts covered by Section 3.4 or any other Section hereof); or 

(iii) shall impose on such Bank any other condition; 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the actual cost to such Bank, by an amount that such Bank deems to be material, of making, converting
into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Bank, upon its
demand in the manner set forth in Section 5.8(b), any additional amounts, computed by such Bank in accordance with Section 5.8(a), necessary to compensate such Bank for such actual increased cost or reduced amount receivable that is
attributable to Loans or Commitments (to the extent that such Bank has not already been compensated or reimbursed for such amounts pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement). If any Bank becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 5.1(a) from the Borrower, it shall promptly notify the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled in the manner set forth in Section 5.8(b). 

(b) If any Bank determines in good faith that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation or application by any Governmental
Authority of any law or regulation regarding capital adequacy or liquidity after the date of this Agreement or compliance by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central
bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) made or issued after the date of this Agreement does or shall have the effect, as a result of such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement or under any Letter of
Credit, of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s or such corporation’s capital to a level below that which such Bank or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank’s
or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank, from time to time as specified by
such Bank in the manner set forth in Section 5.8(b), additional amounts, computed by such Bank in accordance with Section 5.8(a), sufficient to compensate such Bank or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that
such Bank reasonably determines such reduction in rate of return is allocable to the existence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder. 

(c) The agreements contained in this Section 5.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable
hereunder; provided, however, that in no event shall the Borrower be obligated to reimburse or compensate any Bank for amounts contemplated by this Section 5.1 for any period prior to the date that is 90 days prior to the date
upon which such Bank requests in writing such reimbursement or compensation from the Borrower; provided that, to the extent that the adoption of or any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation or application thereof gives rise
to any amount(s) contemplated by this Section 5.1 on a retroactive basis, then the 90-day period referred to in the preceding proviso shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

  
 55 

 SECTION 5.2. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments and Computations. (a) Other than
payments made in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement that are not required or permitted to be pro rata, each Borrowing of Loans by the Borrower from the Banks hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment or
other fee, any reduction of the Commitments of the Banks and any prepayment on account of principal and interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Percentages of the Banks. 

(b) The Borrower shall make each payment (including each prepayment) hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise,
without setoff or counterclaim (except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3), not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office in immediately available funds. The
Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest, Letter of Credit fees or commitment or other fees (to the extent received by the Administrative Agent) ratably to the
Banks according to the amounts of their respective Loans, L/C Obligations and Commitments in respect of which such payment is made, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Bank (to the extent received by the
Administrative Agent) to such Bank, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c) Whenever any payment
hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of
interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next
preceding Business Day. 
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any
payment is due to the Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent
may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent,
each Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during such period, times (ii) the amount of such Bank’s Revolving Percentage of such
payment, times (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including the date such amount is distributed to such Bank to the date on which such Bank’s Revolving Percentage of such payment shall have
become immediately available to the Administrative Agent and the denominator of which is 360. 
 (e) If any Bank shall fail to make any
payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.5(a) or (e) or 10.7, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or 

  
 56 

 
the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Bank’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated
account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Bank under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

 SECTION 5.3. Taxes. (a) Except as otherwise required by any Requirement of Law, any and all payments by or on behalf of the
Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings,
and all interest, penalties and additions to tax with respect thereto, in each case, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (“Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to
deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Withholding Agent), (i) to the extent such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower to any Bank or the Administrative Agent shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section 5.3) the Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes been made, (ii) the Borrower shall be entitled to
make such deductions, and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. “Excluded Taxes” means in the case of each Bank, the Administrative
Agent, any Issuing Bank or any other recipient of any payment to be made by, on behalf of or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (i) net income Taxes, branch profits Taxes and franchise Taxes
imposed on it by (A) the United States of America or (B) any jurisdiction under the laws of which such recipient is organized, or in which its principal office is located (or, in the case of any Bank, in which its applicable lending office
is located), or imposed as a result of a present or former connection between it and the jurisdiction (or political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) imposing such Tax (other than a connection arising solely from such recipient
having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document), (ii) in the case of a Bank, any U.S. Federal withholding Taxes resulting from any Requirement of Law in
effect (A) on the date such Bank becomes a party to this Agreement (other than pursuant to an assignment request by the Borrower under Section 5.7(b)), (B) on the date on which such recipient designates a new lending office, or
(C) where such recipient is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, on the date on which such recipient becomes a party hereto or, solely with respect to any U.S. Federal withholding Taxes attributable to the affected partner, the
date on which the affected partner becomes a partner of such recipient, except in each case pursuant to this clause (ii), to the extent that amounts with respect to such Taxes were payable either (x) to such recipient’s assignor
immediately before such recipient became a recipient hereunder, (y) to such recipient immediately before it designated a new lending office, or (z) to such recipient immediately before the affected partner became a partner of such
recipient, (iii) United States backup withholding Taxes, (iv) Taxes attributable to its failure to comply with Section 5.3(e) or Section 5.3(f), and (v) any U.S. withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA. “Indemnified
Taxes” means Taxes other than Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes. Whenever any 

  
 57 

 
Taxes or Other Taxes are paid by the Borrower pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding sentence or Section 5.3(b), the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the relevant Bank or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, either (A) official tax receipts or notarized copies of such receipts evidencing such payment within thirty (30) days of receiving such receipts or (B) if Borrower
cannot comply with (A), as reasonably promptly after payment thereof, a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower confirming that such Taxes or Other Taxes have been paid, together with evidence of such payment. 

(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay, in accordance with applicable law, any present or future Other Taxes for which Borrower has not
otherwise indemnified, compensated or reimbursed, or made payment on behalf of or with respect to, a Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) under this Agreement or any Loan Document. “Other Taxes” means (A) stamp
or documentary Taxes or (B) any other excise or property Taxes, in each case of (A) and (B), that arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Note or from the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of or otherwise with
respect to, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or the Loans, excluding all such Taxes that are imposed solely as the result of an assignment by a Bank of its interests, rights or benefits hereunder or under any other Loan Document (other than
Taxes resulting from an assignment requested by the Borrower under Section 5.7(b)). 
 (c) The Borrower will indemnify each Bank and
the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 5.3) paid by such Bank or the Administrative
Agent (as the case may be) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. 

(d) Each Bank shall indemnify the Administrative Agent for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes that are attributable to
such Bank and that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith. A certificate as to the amount of
such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (e) 

(i) Each Bank (which, for purposes of this Section 5.3(e) and Section 5.3(f), shall include any Issuing Bank) that is
a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two valid, original, properly completed and duly executed IRS Forms
W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax. 

(ii) Each Bank (or Transferee, if applicable) that is not a “United States person” as defined in
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Bank”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Bank from which the related participation
shall have been purchased) (A) two valid, original, properly completed and duly executed IRS Forms W-8BEN,
W-8BEN-E,W-

  
 58 

 
8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY, as applicable (together with any applicable underlying IRS forms or other applicable
documentation) or any successor applicable form, as the case may be (subject to the remaining clauses hereof), (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Bank claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under
Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit G and the applicable IRS Form W-8, or any subsequent
versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Bank claiming complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax on payments under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, (C) if such Non-U.S. Bank is claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan
Document, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, or any successor form thereto, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of,
U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty, and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, an IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, or any successor form thereto, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or
“other income” article of such tax treaty, (D) if applicable, an IRS Form W-8ECI, or any successor form thereto, certifying that the payments received by such Bank are effectively connected with
such Bank’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, (E) if such Bank is not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Loan Document (for example, where the Bank is a partnership or a Bank which has sold a participating
interest in any Loan), an IRS Form W-8IMY, on behalf of itself (or if it is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, on behalf of its owner), or any successor form thereto, accompanied by IRS
Form W-9, IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit G, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable, or (F) any other form
prescribed by applicable requirements of U.S. federal income tax law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax properly completed and duly executed together with such supplementary documentation as may be
prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

(iii) All such forms described in this Section 5.3(e) shall be delivered by each Bank on or before the date which it
becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation) and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. In
addition, each Non-U.S. Bank also agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further originals of the said Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E,W-8ECI, W-8EXP, or W-8IMY (together with any
applicable underlying IRS forms or other applicable documentation) or any successor applicable form, as the case may be, on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in
the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it to the Borrower. Each Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously
delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.3(e), a Non-U.S.
Bank shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 5.3(e) that such Non-U.S. Bank is not legally able to deliver. 

  
 59 

 (iv) If a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to
U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Bank shall deliver
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed
by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under
FATCA, to determine that such Bank has or has not complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 5.3(e), “FATCA” shall
include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 (v) For purposes of determining withholding Taxes
imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Banks 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). 
 (f) Without limiting
Section 5.3(e), a Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under
this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed
documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate if such Bank is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation. In addition, each Bank, if reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to
determine whether or not such Bank is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Bank shall not be required to provide such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Section 5.3(e)) if in such Bank’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank. 

(g) On or before the date the Administrative Agent becomes a party to this Agreement, it shall provide to the Borrower copies of the
documentation prescribed in clause (i) or (ii) below, as applicable (together with all required attachments thereto): (i) IRS Form W-9 or any successor form thereto, or (ii) (A) IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor form thereto, and (B) with respect to payments received on account of any Bank, a U.S. branch withholding certificate 

  
 60 

 
on IRS Form W-8IMY or any successor form evidencing its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. Person for U.S. federal withholding purposes.
At any time thereafter, the Administrative Agent shall provide updated documentation previously provided (or a successor form thereto) when any documentation previously delivered has expired or become obsolete or invalid or otherwise upon the
reasonable request of the Borrower. Nothing in this Section 5.3(g) shall be construed to require the Administrative Agent to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the
Borrower or any other Person. 
 (h) If the Administrative Agent or any Bank determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith,
that it has received or utilized a refund of, or offset with respect to, those Taxes or Other Taxes paid by Borrower or as to which it has been indemnified, compensated or reimbursed by the Borrower (including by the payment of additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 5.3), the Administrative Agent or such Bank shall within 20 days after such refund or utilization pay to the Borrower the amount of such refund or utilization to the extent that the Borrower paid such Taxes or Other
Taxes or indemnified, compensated or reimbursed the Administrative Agent or such Bank for such Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to this Section 5.3, or paid such additional amounts, net of any out-of-pocket costs of the Administrative Agent or such Bank directly related to obtaining or utilizing such refund and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 5.3(h) (plus any penalties, interest or
other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Bank in the event the Administrative Agent or such Bank is required to repay such refund or utilized amount to such Governmental Authority. This
paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Bank, as applicable, be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the
Administrative Agent or such Bank in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or
otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. 
 (i) The agreements
in this Section 5.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 5.3 shall require the Borrower to pay to any Bank
or the Administrative Agent any duplicative amount (whether under this Section 5.3 or otherwise) in addition to that for which Borrower has paid or for which it has already reimbursed, indemnified or compensated, or made payment on behalf of or
with respect to, any Bank or the Administrative Agent under any other provision of this Agreement. 
 (j) Any payment to be made by a
Guarantor shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3 as if such payments were made by the Borrower. Any forms or other information required to be delivered under this Section 5.3 to the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent shall be delivered to a Guarantor prior to any payments being made by such Guarantor. 

  
 61 

 SECTION 5.4. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Bank (a “Benefitted
Bank”) shall at any time receive any payment (other than pursuant to Section 2.7, 3.4, 3.7, 5.1 or 5.3) of all or part of its Revolving Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether
voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 9.1(g) or 9.1(h), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Bank, if any,
in respect of such other Bank’s Loans, Reimbursement Obligations owing to it, respectively, or interest thereon, such Benefitted Bank shall purchase for cash from the other Banks a participating interest in such portion of each such other
Bank’s Loans or Reimbursement Obligations owing to it, respectively, or shall provide such other Banks with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Bank to share the excess
payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Banks; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Bank, such purchase shall
be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to this Section 5.4 may, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

SECTION 5.5. Optional Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments of the Banks
to make Loans shall terminate on the Termination Date. 
 (b) The Borrower shall have the right, without penalty or premium, upon at least
three (3) Business Days’ irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall give prompt notice to each Bank), to terminate in whole the Commitments or permanently, from time to time, to reduce ratably in part the unused
portion of the Commitments, provided that (i) each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (ii) no such termination or reduction shall be
permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments made under Section 5.6 by the Borrower on the effective date thereof, the Total Outstanding Extensions of Credit then outstanding would exceed the Total Commitments then in
effect, and (iii) any notice of termination of the Commitments may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of any event or condition, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative
Agent on or prior to the specified date) if such condition is not satisfied. 
 Each reduction of Commitments pursuant to this
Section 5.5 shall be applied pro rata to the Commitments of each Bank. If at any time, including after giving effect to any reduction of Commitments pursuant to this Section 5.5, the Total Outstanding Extensions of Credit exceed the Total
Commitments, the Borrower shall be obligated, first, to prepay the Loans in the amount of such excess, second, to cash collateralize Letters of Credit to the extent that the aggregate amount of the L/C Obligations exceeds such Total
Commitments after prepayment of all Loans. 

  
 62 

 SECTION 5.6. Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon written notice, including
any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, delivered to the Administrative Agent (i) not
later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the same Business Day, in the case of a prepayment of ABR Revolving Loans and (ii) no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days before the date of prepayment (or such
shorter or no notice as may be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), in the case of a prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans, stating the aggregate principal amount of the prepayment and the Loans to be prepaid, prepay the outstanding principal
amounts of such Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid to the extent required by Section 3.3; provided,
however, that losses incurred by any Bank under Section 3.7 shall be payable with respect to each such prepayment in the manner set forth in Section 3.7. Any such notice provided pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall be
irrevocable; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 5.5(b)(iii), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice
of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 5.5(b)(iii). Partial prepayments pursuant to this Section 5.6 with respect to any Tranche of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (a)
$5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) the aggregate principal amount of such Tranche of Eurodollar Rate Loans then outstanding, as the case may be; provided that no partial prepayment of any Tranche
of Eurodollar Rate Loans may be made if, after giving effect thereto, Section 2.1(b) would be contravened. Partial prepayments with respect to ABR Revolving Loans shall be made in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (i)
$1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of ABR Revolving Loans then outstanding, as the case may be. 

SECTION 5.7. Mitigation of Losses and Costs; Replacement of Banks. (a) Any Bank claiming reimbursement from the Borrower
under any of Sections 3.4, 3.7, 5.1 and 5.3 hereof shall use reasonable efforts (including, if requested by the Borrower, reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office of such Bank) to mitigate the amount of such losses, costs, expenses
and liabilities, if such efforts can be made and such mitigation can be accomplished without such Bank suffering (i) any economic disadvantage for which such Bank does not receive full indemnity from the Borrower under this Agreement or
(ii) any legal or regulatory disadvantage. 
 (b) If (i) any Bank requests compensation under Section 5.1, or if the Borrower
is required to pay any additional amount to any Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank pursuant to Section 5.3, (ii) any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank or a Declining Bank or (iii) any Bank refuses to consent to any
proposed amendment, modification, waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof that requires the unanimous approval of all Banks, or the approval of each of the Banks affected thereby (in each case in accordance with Section 11.1),
and the consent of the Majority Banks shall have been obtained with respect to such amendment, modification, waiver or consent, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including payment of any applicable processing and recordation
fees), upon notice to such Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Bank to assign and delegate, without 

  
 63 

 
recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.6(c)), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume
such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment); provided that (A) the Borrower shall have received (I) the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent with respect to any assignee that is not
already a Bank hereunder (and if a Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (II) the consent of such assignee to the assignment and (III) in the case of
clause (b)(iii) above, the consent of such assignee to the proposed amendment, modification, waiver or consent, (B) such Bank shall have received payment of all amounts owing to such Bank hereunder and under any other Loan Document (including
any amounts arising under Section 3.7 as a consequence of such assignment), (C) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.1 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.3, such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, (D) prior to any such assignment, such Bank shall have taken no action under Section 5.7(a) so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant
to Section 5.1 or Section 5.3 and (E) until such time as such assignment shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 5.1 or Section 5.3, as the case may be. A
Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

SECTION 5.8. Determination and Notice of Additional Costs and Other Amounts. (a) In determining the amount of any claim for
reimbursement or compensation under Sections 3.4, 3.7 and 5.1, each Bank may use any reasonable averaging, attribution and allocation methods consistent with such methods customarily employed by such Bank in similar situations. 

(b) Each Bank or, with respect to compensation claimed by it pursuant to Section 5.3, the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, will
(i) use its best efforts to notify the Borrower through the Administrative Agent (in the case of each Bank) of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement promptly after the occurrence thereof and (ii) notify the Borrower through
the Administrative Agent (in the case of each Bank) promptly after such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, becomes aware of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement, in either case of (i) or (ii) if such event
(for purposes of this Section 5.8(b), a “Triggering Event”) will entitle such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to compensation pursuant to Section 3.4, 3.7, 5.1 or 5.3, as the case may be. Each such
notification of a Triggering Event shall be accompanied by a certificate of such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, setting forth the calculations and justification in reasonable detail such amount or amounts as shall be necessary
to compensate such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, as specified in Section 3.4, 3.7, 5.1 or 5.3, as the case may be, and certifying that such costs are generally being charged by such Bank to other similarly situated
borrowers under similar credit facilities, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Subject to Section 5.3(h), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank or to the Administrative Agent
for its own account, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten Business Days after its receipt of the same.

follows: 
 (a) Organizational Status of the Borrower. The Borrower (i) is validly organized and existing and in
good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; (ii) is duly authorized or qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, each other jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of
its Property requires it to be so authorized or qualified to do business, except where the failure to be so duly authorized or qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, and (iii) has the corporate power and authority to conduct its business, as presently conducted. 
 (b)
Organizational Status of Significant Subsidiaries of the Borrower. Each Significant Subsidiary of the Borrower (i) is validly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and is duly
authorized or qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, each other jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the ownership or leasing of its Property requires it to be so authorized or qualified to do business, except where
the failure to be so validly organized and existing or duly authorized or qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) has the corporate power and
authority to conduct its business, as presently conducted, except where the failure to have such power and authority, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(c) Organizational Powers. Each Loan Party has the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform and comply with its
obligations under this Agreement and any Notes and other Loan Documents to which it is a party. This Agreement and each other Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Loan Party. 

(d) Authorization, No Conflict, Etc. The Borrowings by the Borrower contemplated by this Agreement, the Guaranty by the
Guarantors, the execution and delivery by each Loan Party of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance by each Loan Party of its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been duly authorized by all
requisite corporate action on the part of such Loan Party and do not and will not (i) violate any law or any order of any court or other Governmental Authority to which such Loan Party is subject, (ii) violate the articles of incorporation
or bylaws (each as amended from time to time) of such Loan Party, 

  
 68 

 
(iii) violate or result in a default under any indenture, loan agreement or other agreement to which the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower is a party or by which the
Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower, or any of their respective Property, is bound (except for such violations or defaults that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect)
or (iv) result in or require the creation or imposition of any material Lien upon any of the Properties of the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary not permitted under this Agreement. 

(e) Governmental Approvals and Consents. No authorization or approval or action by, and no notice to or filing with, any
Governmental Authority is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of, or for the Borrowings by the Borrower or the Guaranty of the Guarantors under, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Loan
Party is a party, except (i) those that have been obtained or made and (ii) such matters relating to performance as would ordinarily be done in the ordinary course of business after the Closing Date. 

(f) Obligations Binding. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which each Loan Party is a party constitute the
legal, valid and binding obligations of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with their respective terms (assuming due and valid authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and such other Loan Documents by
each party other than such Loan Party), except as such enforceability may be (i) limited by the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally and (ii) subject to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 

(g) Use of Proceeds, Margin Stock. The proceeds of the Loans will be used by the Borrower (i) to refinance its
obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement and (ii) for other general corporate purposes, including the repayment of Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. No Loan Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower is
principally engaged in, or has as one of its important activities, the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, and no part of the proceeds of any Loan made to the Borrower will be used for any purpose
that would violate the provisions of the margin regulations of the Board. 
 (h) Title to Properties. The issued and
outstanding Capital Stock owned by the Borrower of each of its Significant Subsidiaries, whether such stock is owned directly or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries, is owned free and clear of any Lien, except Liens permitted under
this Agreement. In addition, each of the Borrower and each Significant Subsidiary has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property material to its business, except for defects in title and exceptions to
leasehold interests that either individually or in the aggregate would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and all such Properties are free and clear of any Lien except Liens permitted under this Agreement. 

  
 69 

 (i) Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Borrower is an “investment company” as defined in, or otherwise subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 

(j) Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2019, there has been no event, development or circumstance that, as
of the Closing Date, has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (k) Litigation.
As of the Closing Date, there is no litigation, action, suit, investigation or other legal or governmental proceeding by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to which a Responsible Officer of any Loan Party has
actual knowledge of, threatened in writing against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, at law or in equity, (i) relating to the transactions under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or (ii) as to which there is a
reasonable possibility of an adverse decision that would have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (l) ERISA. There is no
event or events, individually or in the aggregate, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, arising out of or in connection with (i) any Reportable Event or the failure to satisfy the minimum funding standards
(within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) with respect to any Plan that has occurred during the five-year period immediately preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made,
(ii) any failure of a Plan to comply with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, (iii) any termination of a Single Employer Plan, (iv) any complete or partial withdrawal by any Loan Party or any Commonly Controlled Entity
from any Multiemployer Plan, (v) any Lien in favor of the PBGC or any Plan that has arisen during the five-year period referred to in clause (i) above or (vi) a Multiemployer Plan being Insolvent. 

(m) Financial Statements. The consolidated financial statements of the Borrower as of and for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2019 furnished with the SEC with CenterPoint’s 8-K filed on March 19, 2020, copies of which have been delivered to the Banks, present fairly in all material respects the
consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Borrower, its Consolidated Subsidiaries, the Securitization Subsidiaries and the Unrestricted Subsidiaries as of such date and for the period then ended, in conformity with, as
applicable, GAAP and, except as otherwise stated therein, consistently applied (in the case of such unaudited statements, subject to year-end adjustments and the exclusion of detailed footnotes). 

(n) Accuracy of Information. None of the documents or written information (excluding estimates, financial projections
and forecasts) furnished to the Banks by any Loan Party in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Information”), contained, as of the date such Information was furnished (or, if such
Information expressly related to a specific date, as of such specific date), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state, as of the date such Information was furnished (or, if such Information expressly related to a specific date, as
of such specific date), any material fact (other than industry-wide risks normally associated with the types of businesses conducted by the Loan Parties and their 

  
 70 

 
Subsidiaries) necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading, as a whole. The estimates, financial projections
and forecasts furnished to the Banks by the Loan Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated under this Agreement were prepared in good faith and on the basis of information and assumptions that such Loan Party believed to be reasonable as
of the date such information was prepared (it being recognized by the Banks that such estimates, financial projections and forecasts as they relate to future events are not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods
covered by such estimates, financial projections and forecasts may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount). 

(o) No Violation. No Loan Party is in violation of any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or any order,
regulation or demand of any Governmental Authority that, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably could be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(p) Subsidiaries. Schedule 7.1(p) attached hereto sets forth each Significant Subsidiary as of the date hereof.
Except as disclosed on Schedule 7.1(p), as of the date hereof the Borrower owns, directly or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries, all of the outstanding Capital Stock of each Significant Subsidiary, in each case free and clear
of any Liens not permitted under this Agreement. 
 (q) Taxes. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has filed or
caused to be filed all Federal, state and all other material Tax returns that are required to be filed by it and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its
Property and all other Taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its Property by any Governmental Authority (other than any such Taxes, fees or other charges the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries), except where the failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; no Tax Lien has been filed, and to the knowledge of the Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such Tax, fee or other charges (other than any Liens or claims that could not, individually
or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect).

of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (B) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, or (C) that

 74 

 (c) Existence; Laws. Each Loan Party will, and the Borrower will
cause each Significant Subsidiary to, do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its legal existence and all rights, licenses, permits and franchises; provided that the foregoing shall not
prohibit any merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution otherwise permitted under this Agreement; and provided further that neither the Borrower nor any Significant Subsidiary shall be required to preserve or maintain any
rights, licenses, permits or franchises if the failure to maintain and preserve the same would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each Loan Party will, and the Borrower will cause
each Significant Subsidiary to, comply with all laws and regulations applicable to it, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(d) Maintenance of Properties. Each Loan Party will, and the Borrower will cause each Significant Subsidiary to,
preserve and maintain all of its Property that is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.1(d) shall prevent the Borrower or
any of its Significant Subsidiaries from (i) selling, abandoning or otherwise disposing of any Properties (including the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not a Significant Subsidiary or any Person that is not a
Subsidiary) if (x) the retention of such Properties in the good faith judgment of the Borrower or such Significant Subsidiary is inadvisable or unnecessary to the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (y) the
failure to preserve and maintain such Properties would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) engaging in any other transaction that is expressly permitted by the terms of any other provision of this Agreement.

products in the energy market.

will cause each Significant Subsidiary to, at any reasonable time and from time to time (but not to exceed two times in any calendar year unless a Default or an Event of Default exists), permit up to six representatives (with respect to all Loan
Parties) of the Banks designated by the Majority Banks, or representatives of the Administrative Agent, on not less than five Business Days’ notice, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records and books of account of, and visit
the properties of, the Loan Parties and each such Significant Subsidiary and to discuss the general business affairs of the Loan Parties and each such Significant Subsidiary with their respective officers and independent certified public accountants
(provided that, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Loan Parties shall have the opportunity to be present at any such discussion with such independent certified public accountants); subject,
however, in all cases to the imposition of such conditions as the Loan Parties and 

  
 75 

 
each Significant Subsidiary shall deem necessary based on reasonable considerations of safety and security; provided, however, that neither any Loan Party nor any Significant
Subsidiary shall be required to disclose to any Agent, any Bank or any agents or representatives thereof any information which is the subject of attorney-client privilege or attorney work-product privilege properly asserted by the applicable Person
to prevent the loss of such privilege in connection with such information or which is prevented from disclosure pursuant to a confidentiality agreement with third parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the conditions precedent to the
exercise of the right of access described in the preceding sentence that relate to notice requirements or limitations on the Persons permitted to exercise such right shall apply at any time when a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing. 
 (g) Insurance. Each Loan Party will, and the Borrower will cause each Significant Subsidiary to,
maintain insurance with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations, or to the extent that such Loan Party or such Significant Subsidiary deems it prudent to do so, through its own program of self-insurance, in such amounts and
covering such risks as is usually carried by companies engaged in similar businesses, of comparable size and financial strength and with comparable risks.

Designated Rating assigned by such Rating Agency promptly upon the effectiveness of such change. 
 SECTION 8.2. Negative Covenants.
Each Loan Party covenants that, so long as any amount is owing to the Banks hereunder or under any other Loan Document to which it is a party (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim

hypothecate or grant a Lien upon, or permit any mortgage, pledge, security interest or other Lien upon, any Property of such Loan Party or any Significant Subsidiary; provided, however, that this restriction shall neither apply to nor
prevent the creation or existence of:

within security interest in such cash collateral account. 
 Except as expressly provided above in this Section 9.2, presentment,
demand, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration and all other notices of any kind whatsoever are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. 

ARTICLE X 
 THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT 
 SECTION 10.1. Appointment. Each Bank hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Bank of America, N.A., as the Administrative
Agent of such Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Bank irrevocably authorizes Bank of America, N.A., as the Administrative Agent for such Bank, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary
relationship with any Bank, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent and (b) the
other Agents and the Lead Arrangers shall not have any duties or responsibilities hereunder, or any fiduciary relationship with any Bank, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the other Agents or the Lead Arrangers. 
 SECTION 10.2. Delegation
of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and
shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. 

  
 85 

 
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 

SECTION 10.3. Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement
or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s
own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Banks for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Loan Parties or any officer of the Loan Parties contained in this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent or any other Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document
or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Note or any other Loan Document or for any failure of the Loan Parties to perform their obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents
shall not be under any obligation to any Bank to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or
records of the Loan Parties. 
 SECTION 10.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely,
and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, facsimile, email, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct
and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note or any loan account in the Register as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Banks (or, if
so specified by this Agreement, all Banks) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Banks against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any
such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Majority Banks (or, if so specified by this
Agreement, all Banks), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Banks and all future holders of the amounts owing hereunder. 

SECTION 10.5. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any
Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Bank or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative 

  
 86 

 
Agent shall give notice thereof to the Banks. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Majority
Banks (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Banks); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain
from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Banks. 

SECTION 10.6. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent, Lead Arrangers and Other Banks. Each Bank
expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents and the Lead Arrangers nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or
Affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent or any Lead Arranger hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Loan Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by
any Agent or any Lead Arranger, as applicable, to any Bank. Each Bank represents to the Agents and the Lead Arrangers that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any Lead Arranger or any other Bank, and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and made its own decision to make its Loans
hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any Lead Arranger or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Banks by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative
Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Loan Parties that may
come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. 

SECTION 10.7. Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify each Agent, each Lead Arranger and their respective affiliates and their
and their affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, partners, affiliates, agents, advisors, and controlling persons (each, an “Agent Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting
the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective applicable Revolving Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 10.7 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date
upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such applicable Revolving Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the payment of all amounts owing hereunder and the termination of the Commitments)
be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the
transactions contemplated hereby or 

  
 87 

 
thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Bank shall be liable for the payment of any portion of
such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found to by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 10.7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts
payable hereunder. 
 SECTION 10.8. Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept
deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Loan Parties as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, any Letter of Credit issued or
participated in by it and its Commitment hereunder, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms
“Bank” and “Banks” shall include the each Agent in its individual capacity. 
 SECTION 10.9. Successor Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the Banks and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then
the Majority Banks shall appoint from among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Sections 9.1(a), (g) or (h) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing)
be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative
Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on
the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of any amounts payable hereunder. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such
notice on the Resignation Effective Date; provided that if a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been so appointed within 10 days after the resigning Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, the resigning Administrative Agent
may then appoint a successor Administrative Agent who shall be a financial institution engaged or licensed to conduct banking business under the laws of the United States with an office in the United States and that has total assets in excess of
$500,000,000 and who shall serve as Administrative Agent until such time, if any, as an Administrative Agent shall have been appointed by the Majority Banks (with the consent of the Borrower to the extent required above) as provided above. After any
Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X and of Section 11.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

  
 88 

 SECTION 10.10. Co-Syndication Agents, Co-Documentation Agents, Lead Arrangers and Global Coordinators. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Bank identified as a “Co-Syndication
Agent”, “Co-Documentation Agent”, “Lead Arranger” or “Global Coordinator” shall have the right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document other than those applicable to all Banks as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Banks so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Bank. Each Bank acknowledges that it has
not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Banks so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or not taking action hereunder.

the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of
sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Bank, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Bank’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement; or

(including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto). 

SECTION 10.12. Guaranty Matters.

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 Majority Banks will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release
any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, pursuant to this Section 10.12.

 (b) The Borrower hereby acknowledges that (i) certain of the
Banks may be “public-side” Banks (i.e., Banks that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public Lender”) and
(ii) the Administrative Agent will make available to the Banks certain notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that initiates or
responds to the legal process (all such non-excluded information, including e-mail, FpML messaging, and Internet or intranet websites, being referred to herein
collectively as the “Communications”) on IntraLinks or another relevant website (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent) (the “Platform”). The Borrower hereby agrees that
(i) all Communications that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page
thereof, (ii) by marking Communications “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Banks to treat such Communications as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws, it being understood that certain of such Communications may be subject to the
confidentiality requirements hereof, (iii) all Communications marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor,” and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to treat any Communications that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) the Borrower shall be
under no obligation to mark any Communications “PUBLIC,” and each Public Lender hereby waives its right to receive any Communications that are not marked “PUBLIC”; and (B) the Administrative Agent shall treat Communications
that are deemed to have been delivered based on notice pursuant to the last sentence of Section 8.1(a) as “PUBLIC.” THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT
WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE 

  
 92 

 
COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative
Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Bank, any L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort,
contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s, any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Communications or notices through the Platform, any other electronic platform or electronic messaging service, or
through the Internet, except to the extent such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred by reason of the willful misconduct or gross negligence by an Agent Party as determined by a final
non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent or the
Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or circumstances. 

(d) Any party hereto may change its address, facsimile number or electronic mail address for notices and other communications hereunder by
notice to the other parties hereto. 
 SECTION 11.3. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in
exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Bank, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges
provided by law. 
 SECTION 11.4. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and
in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement. 

SECTION 11.5. Payment of Expenses; Indemnity; Limitation of Liability, Etc. 

(a) Expenses. The Borrower agrees (i) to pay all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses of the Global Coordinators associated with the syndication of the Facility, (ii) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution and delivery of, and any amendment, supplement or
modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent (but excluding the fees or expenses of any other counsel); provided that any such legal fees and disbursements shall be limited to one firm of counsel for the Administrative Agent, each
Issuing Bank, and each Bank, taken as a whole, (iii) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses 

  
 93 

 
incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of its rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith,
including the reasonable fees and disbursements of the special counsel to the Administrative Agent, (iv) to pay or reimburse each Bank and each Issuing Bank for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement, or at any
time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, the preservation, of its rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, including
(A) the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to such Bank and (B) other out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or
negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit and (v) without duplication of any other provision contained in this Agreement or any Notes, to pay, indemnify, and hold each Bank and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and
all recording and filing fees (for which each Bank has not been otherwise reimbursed by the Borrower under this Agreement), if any, that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or
administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection
herewith or therewith. 
 (b) Indemnity. Without duplication of any other provision contained in this Agreement or any Notes, the
Borrower agrees to pay, indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, each Global Coordinator, each Lead Arranger, each Bank, each Issuing Bank and each Agent together with their respective affiliates and their and their affiliates’ respective
directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and Affiliates (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”), harmless from and against, any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (and shall reimburse each
Indemnified Person upon demand for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing), incurred by any Indemnified Person arising out of, in connection with,
or as a result of the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or the use, or proposed use, of
proceeds of the Loans (all the foregoing in this clause (b), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that (x) the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to an Indemnified Person with respect to
Indemnified Liabilities arising from or in connection with (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or (B) the material breach by such Indemnified Person of the express terms of this Agreement, in the case
of each of the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and (y) without limiting the provisions of Section 5.3(c),
this Section 11.5(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim; AND PROVIDED FURTHER THAT, SUBJECT TO
THE LIMITATIONS DESCRIBED HEREIN, IT IS THE INTENTION OF THE BORROWER TO INDEMNIFY THE INDEMNIFIED PERSONS (A) AGAINST THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR OWN NEGLIGENCE, AND (B), IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE
OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 11.5(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective
whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, any of the Borrower’s directors, security holders, affiliates, creditors, an Indemnified Person or any other Person, whether or not an Indemnified Person is
otherwise a party to this Agreement. 

  
 94 

 (c) Limitation of Liability. Each party hereto hereby waives, to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to claim or recover from any other party hereto any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result
of the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or the use, or proposed use, of proceeds of the
Loans; provided that nothing contained in this paragraph (c) shall limit the Borrower’s indemnification provisions contained in paragraph (b) above. 

(d) The agreements in this Section 11.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder and termination of
this Agreement. 
 SECTION 11.6. Effectiveness, Successors and Assigns; Participations; Assignments. (a) This Agreement shall
become effective on the date hereof and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Loan Parties, the Banks, each Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, all future holders of the Loans and their respective successors and
assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Bank. 

(b) Any Bank may, without the consent of or notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, in the ordinary course of
its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other financial institutions or Bank Affiliates (a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Bank, any Note held by
such Bank, any Commitment of such Bank or any other interest of such Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, such Bank’s obligations under this
Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Bank shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Bank shall remain the holder of any such Loan and Commitment or other interest for all purposes
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and, except with respect to the matters set forth in Section 11.1, the amendment of which requires the consent of all of the Banks, the participation agreement between the selling Bank and the Participant may not restrict such
Bank’s voting rights hereunder. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.1 and 5.3 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 5.3(e) and
Section 5.3(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.3(e) and Section 5.3(f) shall be delivered to the participating Bank)) to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section; provided that such Participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 5.1 and 5.3 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (c) of this Section and
(ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.1 or 5.3, with respect to any participation, than its participating Bank would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement

  
 95 

 
to receive a greater payment results from an adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Bank with any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. The Borrower further agrees that
each Participant, to the extent provided in its participation, shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.4 and 3.7 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time; provided that
(i) no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Sections than the selling Bank would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation sold by such selling Bank to such Participant
had no such sale occurred and (ii) each such sale of participating interests shall be to a “qualified purchaser”, as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Except as expressly provided in this
Section 11.6(b), no Participant shall be a third-party beneficiary of or have any rights under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents. Each Bank that sells a participation, acting solely
for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall 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 Bank 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, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such
disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries
in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Bank, each of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is a party to any Loan Document, and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded
in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 

(c) Except as set forth below, the Banks shall be permitted to assign all or a portion of their Loans and Commitments to one or more financial
institutions (“Purchasing Banks”) with the consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, of (x) the Borrower; provided that, (A) no consent of the Borrower shall be required if (i) the Purchasing Bank is a Bank or
a Bank Affiliate or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (B) the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment unless it shall have notified the Administrative Agent of its refusal to give such
consent within 10 Business Days following the Borrower’s receipt from the transferor Bank of a fully-completed Assignment and Acceptance (as defined below) with respect to such assignment, delivered in accordance with Section 11.2), (y)
the Administrative Agent, unless the assignment is from a Bank to its Bank Affiliate, and (z) each Issuing Bank, unless the assignment is from a Bank to its Bank Affiliate, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of
Exhibit C (an “Assignment and Acceptance”), executed by such Purchasing Bank and such transferor Bank (and by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank, as applicable) and delivered to the Administrative
Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided that (i) such Purchasing Bank is a “qualified purchaser” as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (ii) each such sale shall be of a
uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in 

  
 96 

 
respect of the Commitment of such Bank, (iii) each such sale shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount representing the entire Commitment of such
transferor Bank) if such sale is not to an existing Bank, and (iv) after giving effect to such sale, the transferor Bank shall (to the extent that it continues to have any Commitment hereunder) have a Commitment of not less than $5,000,000,
provided that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Bank and its Bank Affiliates, if any. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance (the “Transfer Effective Date”), (i) the Purchasing Bank thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Bank hereunder with the
Commitments as set forth therein and (ii) the transferor Bank thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance
covering all or the remaining portion of a transferor Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such transferor Bank shall cease to be a party hereto). Such Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the
extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Bank and the resulting adjustment of Revolving Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Bank of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of
such transferor Bank under this Agreement. On or prior to the Transfer Effective Date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) appropriate entries shall be made in the accounts of the transferor Bank and the Register
evidencing such assignment and releasing the Borrower from any and all obligations to the transferor Bank in respect of the assigned Loan or Loans and (ii) appropriate entries evidencing the assigned Loan or Loans shall be made in the accounts
of the Purchasing Bank and the Register as required by Section 3.1 hereof. In the event that any Notes have been issued in respect of the assigned Loan or Loans, such Notes shall be marked “cancelled” and surrendered by the transferor
Bank to the Administrative Agent for return to the Borrower. 
 (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in
Section 11.2(a) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Banks and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans
owing to, each Bank from time to time. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks may (and, in the case of
any Loan or other obligations hereunder not evidenced by a Note, shall) treat, each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of a Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Loan or other obligation hereunder shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register.
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by a transferor Bank and Purchasing Bank (and, in the case of a Purchasing Bank
that is not then a Bank Affiliate, by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500, the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and
Acceptance on the Transfer Effective Date determined pursuant thereto, record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Banks and the Borrower. 

  
 97 

 (f) Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or
assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Purchasing Bank for such Bank as a party hereto.
The Borrower hereby agrees that, upon request of any Bank at any time and from time to time after the Borrower has made its initial Borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall provide to such Bank, at the Borrower’s own expense, a promissory note,
substantially in the form of Exhibit D evidencing the Loans or L/C Obligations, as the case may be, owing to such Bank. 
 SECTION
11.7. Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Banks provided by law, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Bank shall have the right, to the fullest extent permitted by law, without prior notice to
the Loan Parties (any such notice being expressly waived by the Loan Parties to the extent permitted by applicable law), to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any
other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Bank or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account
of the Loan Parties against any of and all the obligations of the Loan Parties existing under this Agreement which are then due and payable. Each Bank agrees promptly to notify the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and
application made by such Bank, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 

SECTION 11.8. Counterparts(a) . This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of
separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be maintained with Borrower and the Administrative
Agent. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any
notice delivered pursuant to Section 11.2), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary
Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of
this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any
other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that
reproduces an 

  
 98 

 
image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of
a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved
by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by
or on behalf of any other party hereto believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons without further verification thereof and without any further obligation to review the appearance or
form of any such Electronic signature and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Bank, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
each party hereto hereby (i) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Banks,
the Borrower and the Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (ii) each of the parties hereto may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic
records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record). 

SECTION 11.9. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 11.10. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the
agreement of the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Banks with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Bank relative to the subject
matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 11.11. GOVERNING LAW.
(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 11.11(a) to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement or in any Note or any other Loan Documents
shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any rights which any Bank may have under applicable federal law relating to the amount of interest which any Bank may contract for, take, receive or charge in respect of any Loans, including any right to
take, receive, reserve and charge interest at the rate allowed by the laws of 

  
 99 

 
the state where such Bank is located. To the extent that Texas law is applicable to the determination of the Highest Lawful Rate, the Banks and the Borrower agree that (i) if
Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code, as amended, is applicable to such determination, the weekly rate ceiling as computed from time to time shall apply, provided that, to the extent permitted by such Article, the Administrative Agent
may from time to time by notice to the Borrower revise the election of such interest rate ceiling as such ceiling affects the then current or future balances of the Loans; and (ii) the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code,
as amended shall not apply to this Agreement or any Note issued hereunder. 
 SECTION 11.12. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers.
Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 
 (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of New York sitting in
New York County, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to
the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail
(or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid to such party at its address set forth in Section 11.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; and 

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the
right to sue in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 11.13. Acknowledgments. Each of the Loan Parties hereby acknowledge that: 

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

 (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Bank has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Loan Parties arising
out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and the Banks, on one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely
that of debtor and creditor; and 
 (c) no joint venture exists among the Banks or among the Loan Parties and the Banks. 

  
 100 

 SECTION 11.14. Limitation on Agreements. All agreements between the Loan Parties, the
Administrative Agent or any Bank, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of demand being made in respect of an amount due
under any Loan Document or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to the Administrative Agent or any Bank for the use, forbearance, or detention of the money to be loaned under this Agreement, any Notes or any other Loan Document or
otherwise or for the payment or performance of any covenant or obligation contained herein or in any other Loan Document exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If, as a result of any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any
of such documents, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by applicable usury law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such
validity, and if, from any such circumstance, the Administrative Agent or any Bank shall ever receive interest or anything that might be deemed interest under applicable law that would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, such amount that would be
excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on account of such Bank’s Loans or the amounts owing on other obligations of the Loan Parties to the Administrative Agent or any Bank under any Loan Document and
not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid principal balance of such Bank’s Loans and the amounts owing on other obligations of the Loan Parties to the Administrative Agent or any Bank under any Loan
Document, as the case may be, such excess shall be refunded to the Loan Parties. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Administrative Agent or any Bank for the use, forbearance or detention of the indebtedness of the Loan Parties to the
Administrative Agent or any Bank shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such indebtedness until payment in full of the principal (including the period of any
renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest on account of such indebtedness shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, it is understood and agreed that if at any time the
rate of interest that accrues on the outstanding principal balance of any Loan shall exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, the rate of interest that accrues on the outstanding principal balance of any Loan shall be limited to the Highest Lawful Rate, but
any subsequent reductions in the rate of interest that accrues on the outstanding principal balance of any Loan shall not reduce the rate of interest that accrues on the outstanding principal balance of any Loan below the Highest Lawful Rate until
the total amount of interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of any Loan equals the amount of interest that would have accrued if such interest rate had at all times been in effect. The terms and provisions of this Section 11.14
shall control and supersede every other provision of all Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 11.15. Removal of Bank. Notwithstanding anything
herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Borrower may, at any time in its sole discretion, remove any Bank upon 15 Business Days’ written notice to such Bank and the Administrative Agent (the contents of which notice shall be
promptly communicated by the Administrative Agent to each other Bank), such removal to be effective at the expiration of such 15-day notice period; provided, however, that no Bank may be removed
hereunder at a time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Each notice by the Borrower under this Section 11.15 shall constitute a representation by the Borrower that the removal described in such notice is permitted
under this Section 11.15. Concurrently with such removal, the Borrower shall pay to 

  
 101 

 
such removed Bank all amounts owing to such Bank hereunder (including any amounts arising under Section 3.7 as a consequence of such removal) and under any other Loan Document in immediately
available funds. Upon full and final payment hereunder of all amounts owing to such removed Bank, such Bank shall make appropriate entries in its accounts evidencing payment of all Loans hereunder and releasing the Borrower from all obligations
owing to the removed Bank in respect of the Loans hereunder and surrender to the Administrative Agent for return to the Borrower any Notes of the Borrower then held by it. Effective immediately upon such full and final payment, such removed Bank
will not be considered to be a “Bank” for purposes of this Agreement, except for the purposes of any provision hereof that by its terms survives the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the amounts payable hereunder. Effective
immediately upon such removal, the Commitment of such removed Bank shall immediately terminate, such Bank’s participation share in any outstanding Letters of Credit shall immediately terminate and such participation share shall be divided among
the remaining Banks according to their Revolving Percentages. Such removal will not, however, affect the Commitments of any other Banks hereunder. 

SECTION 11.16. Confidentiality. Each of the Banks and the Administrative Agent agrees to maintain, and to use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause any third party recipient of the information described in this Section 11.16 to maintain, any information delivered or made available by the Loan Parties to it (including any information obtained pursuant to
Section 8.1), confidential from anyone other than Persons employed or retained by such party who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the transactions contemplated hereunder; provided that
nothing shall prevent any Bank or the Administrative Agent from disclosing such information (i) to any other Bank or any Affiliate of any Bank, (ii) pursuant to subpoena or upon the order of any court or administrative agency having
jurisdiction over such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, (iii) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority or self-regulatory body, in each case, having jurisdiction over such Bank or the Administrative Agent,
as the case may be, (iv) if such information has been publicly disclosed (other than by reason of disclosure by any Bank or the Administrative Agent in breach of its obligations under this Section 11.16), (v) to the extent reasonably
required in connection with any litigation to which either the Administrative Agent, any Bank, the Borrower or their respective Affiliates may be a party relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (vi) to the extent reasonably
required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (vii) to the Administrative Agent’s or such Bank’s, as the case may be, legal counsel, independent auditors and other professional advisors and agents involved in the
administration of the Loans hereunder, (viii) to market data collectors, such as league table, or other service providers to the lending industry, in respect of information regarding the closing date, size, type, purpose of, and parties to,
this Agreement, or (ix) to any actual or proposed Participant, Purchasing Bank, hedge counterparty in respect of this Agreement or pledgee (each, a “Transferee”) that has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of this
Section 11.16 or provisions at least as restrictive as those in this Section 11.16. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event that any Bank or the Administrative Agent is legally requested or required to disclose any
confidential information pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) (unless such request (X) is from a bank regulatory agency or in connection with an examination of a Bank’s records by bank examiners and (Y) does not target or impact Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries) or (v) of this Section 11.16, such party shall promptly notify the Borrower of such 

  
 102 

 
request or requirement prior to disclosure so that Borrower may seek an appropriate protective order and/or waive compliance with the terms of this Agreement. If, however, in the opinion of
counsel for such party, such party is nonetheless, in the absence of such order or waiver, compelled to disclose such confidential information or otherwise stand liable for contempt or suffer possible censure or other penalty or liability, then such
party may disclose such confidential information without liability to the Borrower; provided, however, that such party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the disclosure of such information. Subject to the
exceptions above to disclosure of information, each of the Banks and the Administrative Agent agrees that it shall not publish, publicize, or otherwise make public any information regarding this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby
without the written consent of the Borrower, in its sole discretion. 
 SECTION 11.17. Officer’s Certificates. It
is not intended that any certificate of any officer of the Loan Parties delivered to the Administrative Agent or any Bank pursuant to this Agreement shall give rise to any personal liability on the part of such officer. 

SECTION 11.18. USA Patriot Act. Each Bank and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank) hereby notifies the
Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify
and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance
with the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by each Bank and the Administrative Agent to
maintain compliance with the Patriot Act. 
 SECTION 11.19. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. The Loan Parties acknowledge and
agree, and acknowledge their Affiliates’ understanding, that: (a) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Loan Parties or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Lead
Arranger, any Global Coordinator, any Issuing Bank or any Bank, on the other hand, is intended to be or has been created in respect of this Agreement, irrespective of whether any such Person has advised or is advising the Loan Parties or any of
