 Exhibit 10.9 

EXPENSE SUPPORT AND CONDITIONAL REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT 

This Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made this 16th day of September, 2021, by
and between ONEX FALCON DIRECT LENDING BDC FUND, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Fund”), and ONEX FALCON INVESTMENT ADVISORS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Adviser”). 

WHEREAS, the Fund is
a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that will elect to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”); 
 WHEREAS, the Fund has retained the Adviser to furnish investment
advisory services to the Fund on the terms and conditions set forth in the investment advisory agreement, dated September 16, 2021, entered between the Fund and the Adviser, as may be amended or restated (the “Investment
Advisory Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, the Fund and the Adviser have determined that it is appropriate and in the best
interests of the Fund that the Adviser may elect to pay a portion of the Fund’s expenses from time to time, which the Fund will be obligated to reimburse to the Adviser at a later date if certain conditions are met. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby agree as follows: 

1. Adviser Expense Payments to the Fund 

(a) At such times as the Adviser determines, the Adviser may elect to pay certain expenses of the Fund on the Fund’s behalf (each such
payment, an “Expense Payment”). In making an Expense Payment, the Adviser will designate, as it deems necessary or advisable, what type of Expense it is paying (including, whether it is paying organizational or offering expenses);
provided that no portion of an Expense Payment will be used to pay any interest expense or distribution and/or servicing fees of the Fund. 

(b) The Fund’s right to receive an Expense Payment shall be an asset of the Fund upon the Adviser committing in writing to pay the
Expense Payment pursuant to a notice substantially in the form of Appendix A. Any Expense Payment that the Adviser has committed to pay shall be paid by the Adviser to the Fund in any combination of cash or other immediately available
funds no later than forty-five days after such commitment was made in writing, and/or offset against amounts due from the Fund to the Adviser or its affiliates. 

2. Reimbursement of Expense Payments by the Fund 

(a) Following any calendar month in which Available Operating Funds (as defined below) exceed the cumulative distributions accrued to the
Fund’s shareholders based on distributions declared with respect to record dates occurring in such calendar month (the amount of such excess being hereinafter referred to as “Excess Operating Funds”), the Fund shall pay such
Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof in accordance with Sections 2(b), as applicable, to the Adviser until such time as all Expense Payments made by the Adviser to the Fund within three years prior to the last business day of such calendar
month have been reimbursed. Any payments required to be made by the Fund pursuant to this Section 2(a) shall be referred to herein as a “Reimbursement Payment.” For purposes of this Agreement, “Available Operating
Funds” means the sum of (i) the Fund’s net investment company taxable income (including net short-term capital gains reduced by net long-term capital losses), (ii) the Fund’s net capital gains (including the excess of net
long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses) and (iii) dividends and other distributions paid to the Fund on account of investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts listed in clause (iii) are not included
under clauses (i) and (ii) above). 
 (b) The amount of the Reimbursement Payment for any calendar month shall equal the lesser of
(i) the Excess Operating Funds in such quarter and (ii) the aggregate amount of all Expense Payments made by the Adviser to the Fund within three years prior to the last business day of such calendar month that have not been previously

 
reimbursed by the Fund to the Adviser; provided that the Adviser may waive its right to receive all or a portion of any Reimbursement Payment in any particular calendar month, in which case such
waived amount will remain unreimbursed Expense Payments reimbursable in future months pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Reimbursement Payment for any month shall be made if: (1) the Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share declared by the Company at the time of such proposed Reimbursement Payment is
less than the Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates, or (2) the Company’s Operating Expense Ratio at the time of such proposed Reimbursement Payment
is greater than the Operating Expense Ratio at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates. For purposes of the Agreement, “Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share” means the annualized rate (based
on a 365 day year) of regular cash distributions per share exclusive of returns of capital, distribution rate reductions due to distribution and shareholder fees, and declared special dividends or special distributions, if any. The “Operating
Expense Ratio” is calculated by dividing Operating Expenses, less organizational and offering expenses, base management and incentive fees owed to the Adviser, and interest expense, by the Company’s net assets. 

(d) The Fund’s obligation to make a Reimbursement Payment shall automatically become a liability of the Fund on the last business day of
the applicable calendar month, except to the extent the Adviser has waived its right to receive such payment for the applicable month. In connection with any Reimbursement Payment, the Fund may deliver a notice substantially in the form
of Appendix A. The Reimbursement Payment for any calendar month shall be paid by the Fund to the Adviser in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds as promptly as possible following such calendar month and in no
event later than forty-five days after the end of such calendar month. 
 (e) All Reimbursement Payments hereunder shall be deemed to relate
to the earliest unreimbursed Expense Payments made by the Adviser to the Fund within three years prior to the last business day of the calendar month in which such Reimbursement Payment obligation is accrued. 

3. Termination and Survival 
 (a)
This Agreement shall become effective as of the date of this Agreement. 
 (b) This Agreement may be terminated, without the payment of any
penalty, by the Fund or the Adviser at any time, with or without notice. 
 (c) This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of
(i) the termination by the Fund of the Investment Advisory Agreement; (ii) the board of trustees of the Fund makes a determination to dissolve or liquidate the Fund; or (iii) upon a quotation or listing of the Fund’s securities
on a national securities exchange (including through an initial public offering) or a sale of all or substantially all of the Fund’s assets to, or a merger or other liquidity transaction with, an entity in which the Fund’s shareholders
receive shares of a publicly-traded company which continues to be managed by the Adviser or an affiliate thereof. 
 (d) Sections 3 and 4 of
this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Section 2 of this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement with respect to any Expense Payments that have not been
reimbursed by the Fund to the Adviser. 
 4. Miscellaneous 

(a) The captions of this Agreement are included for convenience only and in no way define or limit any of the provisions hereof or otherwise
affect their construction or effect. 
 (b) This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes all prior agreements,
understandings and arrangements with respect to the subject matter hereof. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the place where this Agreement may be
executed by any of the parties hereto, this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. For so long as the Fund is regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act, this Agreement
shall also be construed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act. In such case, to the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York or any of the provisions herein conflict with the provisions of the
Investment Company Act, the latter shall control. Further, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to require the Fund to take any action contrary to the Fund’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust or By-Laws, as each may be amended or restated, or to relieve or deprive the board of trustees of the Fund of its responsibility for and control of the conduct of the affairs of the Fund. 

  
 2 

 (d) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or made invalid by a court decision,
statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby and, to this extent, the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be severable. 

(e) The Fund shall not assign this Agreement or any right, interest or benefit under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the
Adviser. 
 (f) This Agreement may be amended in writing by mutual consent of the parties. This Agreement may be executed by the parties on
any number of counterparts, delivery of which may occur by facsimile or as an attachment to an electronic communication, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the
same instrument.

Credit Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, shall

    3

     

    

 

4.3           Counterparts.
This Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto in any number of separate counterparts, and all of such counterparts

 “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Amendment 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, without
limiting the foregoing, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, any electronic signature shall be promptly followed by such manually
executed counterpart (in such number as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent).

 

4.4         NO
ORAL AGREEMENT. THIS AMENDMENT, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH AND THEREWITH REPRESENT

4.7         Severability.
Any provision of this Amendment which 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.

and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend these terms to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings
from such Rating Agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Rating Level shall be determined by reference
to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

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 in the United States and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

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

Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from
the London interbank offered rate. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest
rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently
discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. 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. On March 5, 2021,
the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that: immediately after December 31, 2021, publication
of the 1-week and 2-month U.S. dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; and immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month
and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided
on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that
representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator
of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or
the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult its own advisors to stay informed
of any such developments. Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference
rates to be used in place of LIBOR. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in
Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, Sections 3.03(b) and (c) provide a mechanism for determining an
alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 3.03(e), 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, performance
or any other matter related to the LIBOR or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative
or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (x) any such alternative, successor or replacement
rate implemented pursuant to Sections 3.03(b) or (c), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event,
a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or Other Benchmark Rate Election, and (y) the implementation of any Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 3.03(d)), 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 LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate (or the euro interbank offered rate, as
applicable) prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and/or other related entities may
engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement)
and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower.

 

ARTICLE II

The Credits

 

Section 2.01      Commitments.

 

(a)       Subject
to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Loans to the Borrower during the Availability Period in an aggregate
principal amount that will not result in (a) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment
or (b) the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the total Commitments. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow the Loans.

 

(b)       On
the Effective Date (or as soon as practicable with respect to (iii)):

 

    (i)       the
Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid commitment fees, break funding fees under Section 5.02 and all other fees that are
outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement for the account of each “Lender” under the Existing Credit Agreement;

 

    33

     

    

 

    (ii)       all
loans, Existing Letters of Credit, and other Indebtedness, obligations and liabilities outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement
on such date shall continue to constitute Loans, Letters of Credit and other Indebtedness, obligations and liabilities under this Agreement;

 

    (iii)      the
Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to cause each “Lender” under the Existing Credit Agreement to deliver to
the Borrower as soon as practicable after the Effective Date the Note issued by the Borrower to it under the Existing Credit Agreement,
marked “canceled” or an affidavit that such note has been lost and (in any event) has been canceled; and

 

    (iv)      the
Existing Credit Agreement and the commitments thereunder shall be superseded by this Agreement and such commitments shall terminate.

 

(c)       On
the Second Amendment Effective Date, all Assumed Letters of Credit on such date shall constitute Letters of Credit under this Agreement.

 

It is the intent of the parties hereto that this
Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Existing Credit Agreement and re-evidences the obligations of the Borrower outstanding
thereunder. The commitments of the lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement are reallocated among the Lenders under this Agreement
as set forth on Annex I. This Agreement does not constitute a novation of the obligations and liabilities under the Existing Credit
Agreement or evidence repayment of any such obligations and liabilities. All loans, letters of credit and other indebtedness, obligations
and liabilities outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement on such date shall continue to constitute Loans, Letters of Credit and
other Indebtedness, obligations and liabilities under this Agreement.

 

Section 2.02      Loans
and Borrowings.

 

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

 

(b)       Types
of Loans. Subject to Section 3.03, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the
Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign
branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation
of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(c)       Minimum
Amounts; Limitation on Number of Borrowings. At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing
shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $3,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing
is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $3,000,000; provided
that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments or that is required
to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.08(e). Borrowings of more than one Type may
be outstanding at the same time, provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of eight (8) Eurodollar Borrowings
outstanding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert
or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

 

    34

     

    

 

(d)       Notes.
If requested by a Lender, the Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of the Borrower in substantially
the form of Exhibit A, dated, in the case of (i) any Lender party hereto as of the date of this Agreement, as of the
date of this Agreement, (ii) any Lender that becomes a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption or amendment or other
modification to this Agreement, as of the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption or other amendment or modification, as applicable,
or (iii) any Lender that becomes a party hereto in connection with an increase in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts pursuant to
Section 2.06(c), as of the effective date of such increase, payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to its Maximum
Credit Amount as in effect on such date, and otherwise duly completed. In the event that any Lender’s Maximum Credit Amount increases
or decreases for any reason (whether pursuant to Section 2.06, Section 12.04(b) or otherwise), the Borrower
shall deliver or cause to be delivered, to the extent such Lender is then holding a Note, on the effective date of such increase or decrease,
a new Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to its Maximum Credit Amount after giving effect to such increase or decrease,
and otherwise duly completed, and such Lender shall return its prior Note to the Borrower, marked “canceled” (or its equivalent)
or an affidavit that such Note has been lost and (in any event) has been canceled. The date, amount, Type, interest rate and, if applicable, Interest
Period of each Loan made by each Lender, and all payments made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on
its books for its Note, and, prior to any transfer, may be endorsed by such Lender on a schedule attached to such Note or any continuation
thereof or on any separate record maintained by such Lender. Failure to make any such notation or to attach a schedule shall not affect
any Lender’s or the Borrower’s rights or obligations in respect of such Loans or affect the validity of such transfer by any
Lender of its Note.

 

Section 2.03      Requests
for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by submitting a Borrowing
Request (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the
date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on the date
of the proposed Borrowing; provided that no such notice shall be required for any deemed request of an ABR Borrowing to finance
the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.08(e). Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and
shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each such Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance
with Section 2.02:

 

    (i)       the
aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

    (v)      the
current total Revolving Credit Exposures (without regard to the requested Borrowing) and the pro forma total Revolving Credit Exposures
(giving effect to the requested Borrowing); and

 

    (vi)     the
location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.05.

 

    35

     

    

 

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is
specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar
Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Each Borrowing Request
shall constitute a representation that the amount of the requested Borrowing shall not cause the total Revolving Credit Exposures to exceed
the total Commitments.

 

Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request
in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the
amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

 

Section 2.04      Interest
Elections.

 

(a)       Conversion
and Continuance. Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a
Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect
to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest
Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.04. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different
portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising
such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

 

(b)       Interest
Election Requests. To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.04, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent
of such election by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting
a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request
shall be irrevocable and shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.

 

(c)       Information
in Interest Election Requests. Each Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

 

   (i)       the
Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions
thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to Sections
2.04(c)(iii) and (iv) shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

 

    (ii)      the
effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

 

    (iii)     whether
the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

 

    (iv)     if
the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election,
which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

 

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

 

(d)       Notice
to Lenders by the Administrative Agent. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall
advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

 

    36

     

    

 

(e)       Effect
of Failure to Deliver Timely Interest Election Request and Events of Default on Interest Election. If the Borrower fails to deliver
a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto,
then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR
Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing: (i) no outstanding
Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing (and any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of
any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective) and (ii) unless repaid, each
Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

 

Section 2.05      Funding
of Borrowings.

 

(a)       Funding
by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof solely by wire transfer of immediately
available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such
purpose by notice to the Lenders. Except in respect of the provisions of this Agreement covering the reimbursement of Letters of Credit,
the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received in the aforesaid
account of the Administrative Agent to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City and designated
by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement
as provided in Section 2.08(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank. Nothing herein shall
be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for its Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation
by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for its Loan in any particular place or manner.

 

(b)       Presumption
of Funding by the Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of
any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.05(a) and may,
in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made
its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree
to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including
the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in
the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry
rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender
pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

 

Section 2.06      Termination,
Reduction and Increase of Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts.

 

(a)       Scheduled
Termination of Commitments. Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. If at any time the
Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts are reduced to zero, then the Commitments shall terminate on the effective date of such reduction.

 

(b)       Optional
Termination and Reduction of Aggregate Credit Amounts.

 

   (i)         The
Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts; provided that (A) each
reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000
and (B) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts if, after giving effect to any concurrent
prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 3.04(b), the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments.

 

    37

     

    

 

    (ii)       The
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts under Section 2.06(b)(i) at
least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date
thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice
delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of
termination of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness
of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior
to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts
shall be permanent and may not be reinstated except pursuant to Section 2.06(c). Each reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit
Amounts shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Percentage.

 

(c)       Optional
Increase in Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts.

 

   (i)         Subject
to the conditions set forth in Section 2.06(c)(ii), the Borrower may from time to time increase the Aggregate Maximum Credit
Amounts then in effect with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank (not to be unreasonably withheld)
by increasing the Maximum Credit Amount of one or more Lenders or by causing one or more Persons that at such time are not Lenders to
become a Lender (an “Additional Lender”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in
no case shall an Additional Lender be an Ineligible Institution.

 

    (ii)       Any
increase in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

 

(A)       such
increase shall not be less than $25,000,000 unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, and no such increase shall be permitted
if after giving effect thereto the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts would exceed $2,000,000,000;

 

(B)        no
Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the effective date of such increase;

 

(C)        on
the effective date of such increase, no Eurodollar Borrowings shall be outstanding or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then
the effective date of such increase shall be the last day of the Interest Period in respect of all such Eurodollar Borrowings unless the
Borrower pays compensation required by Section 5.02;

 

(D)        no
Lender’s Maximum Credit Amount may be increased without the consent of such Lender;

 

(E)         if
the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts by increasing the Maximum Credit Amount of an existing Lender, the
Borrower and such Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1
(a “Maximum Credit Amount Increase Certificate”), together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and, if
requested, the Borrower shall deliver a new Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to its Maximum Credit Amount after
giving effect to such increase (with such Lender to return its prior Note to the Borrower, marked “canceled” (or its equivalent)
or an affidavit that such Note has been lost and (in any event) canceled), and otherwise duly completed;

 

    38

     

    

 

 

(F)         if
the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts by causing an Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement,
then the Borrower and such Additional Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate substantially in the
form of Exhibit G-2 (an “Additional Lender Certificate”), together with an Administrative Questionnaire
and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and, if requested, the Borrower shall (1) deliver a Note payable to such Additional
Lender in a principal amount equal to its Maximum Credit Amount, and otherwise duly completed and (2) pay any applicable fees as
may have been agreed to between the Borrower, the Additional Lender and/or the Administrative Agent; and

 

(G)        the
Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any customary legal opinions or other documents (including a resolution duly adopted by
the board of directors (or equivalent body) of the Borrower and each Guarantor authorizing such increase in the Aggregate Maximum Credit
Amounts) reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.

 

   (iii)       Subject
to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(iv), from and after the effective date specified in the Maximum
Credit Amount Increase Certificate or the Additional Lender Certificate (or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then the last
day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings, unless the Borrower has paid compensation required by Section 5.02):
(A) the amount of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be increased as set forth therein, and (B) in the case of an Additional
Lender Certificate, any Additional Lender party thereto shall be a party to this Agreement and have the rights and obligations of a Lender
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In addition, the Lender or the Additional Lender, as applicable, shall purchase a pro
rata portion of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests in Letters of Credit) of each of the other Lenders (and such Lenders
hereby agree to sell and to take all such further action to effectuate such sale) such that each Lender (including any Additional Lender,
if applicable) shall hold its Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests) after giving effect to the
increase in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts.

 

   (iv)       Upon
its receipt of a duly completed Maximum Credit Amount Increase Certificate or an Additional Lender Certificate, executed by the Borrower
and the Lender or the Borrower and the Additional Lender party thereto, as applicable, the processing and recording fee referred to in
Section 2.06(c)(ii), the Administrative Questionnaire referred to in Section 2.06(c)(ii), if applicable, and the
written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank to such increase required by Section 2.06(c)(i), the Administrative
Agent shall accept such Maximum Credit Amount Increase Certificate or Additional Lender Certificate and record the information contained
therein in the Register required to be maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.04(b)(iv). No increase
in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register
as provided in this Section 2.06(c)(iv).

 

   (v)       Upon
any increase in the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.06(c), Annex I to this Agreement shall
be automatically amended to reflect any changes in the Lenders’ Maximum Credit Amounts and any resulting changes in the Lenders’
Applicable Percentages.

 

Section 2.07      [Reserved].

 

    39

     

    

 

Section 2.08      Letters
of Credit.

 

(a)       General.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of dollar denominated Letters of Credit for
its own account or for the account of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent
and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Agreement, the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation hereunder to issue,
and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (i) to fund any activity or
business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions,
(ii) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement or (iii) in any manner that
would result in a violation of one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

 

(b)       Notice
of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal
or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication,
if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance
of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, but in any event no less than three Business Days) a notice:

 

   (i)         requesting
the issuance of a Letter of Credit or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended;

 

   (ii)        specifying
the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day);

 

   (iii)       specifying
the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with Section 2.08(c));

 

    (iv)     specifying
the amount of such Letter of Credit;

 

    (v)      specifying
the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such
Letter of Credit; and

 

   (vi)      specifying
the current total Revolving Credit Exposures (without regard to the requested Letter of Credit or the requested amendment, renewal or
extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit) and the pro forma total Revolving Credit Exposures (giving effect to the requested
Letter of Credit or the requested amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit).

 

Each notice shall constitute a representation
that after giving effect to the requested issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, as applicable, (i) the LC Exposure shall not
exceed the LC Commitment and (ii) the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Commitments.

 

In addition, as a condition to any such Letter
of Credit issuance, the Borrower shall have entered into a continuing agreement (or other letter of credit agreement) for the issuance
of letters of credit and/or shall submit a letter of credit application, in each case, as required by the Issuing Bank and using such
Issuing Bank’s standard form (each, a “Letter of Credit Agreement”).

 

    40

     

    

 

(c)       Expiration
Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire (or be subject to termination by notice from the Issuing Bank to a beneficiary thereof) at
or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit
(or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business
Days prior to the Maturity Date.

 

(d)       Participations.
By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action
on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the
Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available
to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement
made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.08(e), or of any reimbursement
payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations
pursuant to this Section 2.08(d) 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.

 

(e)       Reimbursement.
If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement
by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date
that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City
time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00
noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00
a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives
such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that if such LC Disbursement is
not less than $3,000,000, the Borrower shall, subject to the conditions to Borrowing set forth herein, be deemed to have requested, and
the Borrower does hereby request under such circumstances, that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount
and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting
ABR Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable
LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly
following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due
from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05
shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the
Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from
the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.08(e), the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank
or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this Section 2.08(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then
to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.08(e) to
reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a
Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

 

    41

     

    

 

(f)       Obligations
Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in Section 2.08(e) shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances
whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement
or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving
to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) 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 any Letter of Credit Agreement, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar
to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.08(f), constitute a legal or equitable discharge
of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor
the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance
or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances
referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft,
notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder),
any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided
that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages
(as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the
extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when
determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly
agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised all requisite care in each such determination. In furtherance
of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear
on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either
accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information
to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms
of such Letter of Credit.

 

(g)       Disbursement
Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand
for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed
by telecopy or electronic mail) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder;
provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse
the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

 

(h)       Interim
Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, until the Borrower shall have reimbursed the Issuing Bank for
such LC Disbursement (either with its own funds or a Borrowing under Section 2.08(e)), the unpaid amount thereof shall bear
interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses
such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans and such interest shall be due and payable on the date
when such reimbursement is payable; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to
Section 2.08(e), then Section 3.02(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section 2.08(h) shall
be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.08(e) to
reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

 

    42

     

    

 

(i)       Replacement
and Resignation of an Issuing Bank.

 

   (i)         An
Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank
and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time
any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank
pursuant to Section 3.05(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (A) the successor Issuing Bank
shall have all the rights and obligations of its predecessor 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 such resigning 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)       An
Issuing Bank may resign as Issuing Bank at any time (subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank if there is
at that time only one Issuing Bank, in which case such resigning Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.08(i)(i))
upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders. Upon the effective date of such
resignation, (A) the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the resigning Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.05(b) and
(B) the resigning 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 the effective date of such resignation, but shall not
be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

 

         (j)       Cash
Collateralization. If (i) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative
Agent or the Majority Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.08(j), or (ii) the
Borrower is required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess attributable to an LC Exposure in connection with any prepayment pursuant
to Section 3.04(b), then the Borrower shall deposit, in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative
Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to, in the case of an Event of Default, the LC Exposure, and in the
case of a payment required by Section 3.04(b), the amount of such excess as provided in Section 3.04(b), as of
such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become
effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary described in Section 10.01(g) or
Section 10.01(h). The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank and the Lenders,
an exclusive first priority and continuing perfected security interest in and Lien on such account and all cash, checks, drafts, certificates
and instruments, if any, from time to time deposited or held in such account, all deposits or wire transfers made thereto, any and all
investments purchased with funds deposited in such account, all interest, dividends, cash, instruments, financial assets and other Property
from time to time received, receivable or otherwise payable in respect of, or in exchange for, any or all of the foregoing, and all proceeds,
products, accessions, rents, profits, income and benefits therefrom, and any substitutions and replacements therefor. The Borrower’s
obligation to deposit amounts pursuant to this Section 2.08(j) shall be absolute and unconditional, without regard to
whether any beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit has attempted to draw down all or a portion of such amount under the terms of a Letter
of Credit, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not be subject to any defense or be affected by a right of set-off,
counterclaim or recoupment which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may now or hereafter have against any such beneficiary, the Issuing
Bank, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person for any reason whatsoever. Such deposit shall be held as collateral securing
the payment and performance of the Borrower’s and the Guarantor’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other
than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the
Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any,
on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse
the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction
of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated,
be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If the Borrower
is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, and the Borrower is
not otherwise required to pay to the Administrative Agent the excess attributable to an LC Exposure in connection with any prepayment
pursuant to Section 3.04(b), then such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within
three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

 

    43

     

    

 

        (k)       Letters
of Credit Issued for Account of Restricted Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder supports
any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Restricted Subsidiary, or states that a Restricted Subsidiary is the “account party,”
 “applicant,” “customer,” “instructing party,” or the like of or for such Letter of Credit, and without
derogating from any rights of the applicable Issuing Bank (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Restricted
Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable Issuing
Bank hereunder for such Letter of Credit (including to reimburse any and all drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit had been
issued solely for the account of the Borrower and (ii) irrevocably waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available
to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. 
The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for its Restricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of
the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries.

 

ARTICLE III

Payments of Principal and Interest; Prepayments; Fees

 

Section 3.01      Repayment
of Loans. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then
unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the Termination Date.

 

Section 3.02      Interest.

 

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

 

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

 

(c)       Post-Default
Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or if any principal of or interest on
any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document is not paid when
due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, then all Loans outstanding, in the case of an Event of Default, and such
overdue amount, in the case of a failure to pay amounts when due, shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per
annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, two percent (2%) plus the rate otherwise applicable to such
Loan as provided in this Agreement or (ii) in the case of any other amount, two percent (2%) plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans
as provided in Section 3.02(a).

 

    44

     

    

 

(d)       Interest
Payment Dates. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and on the Termination
Date; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 3.02(c) shall be payable on demand, (ii) in
the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than an optional prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the Termination Date),
accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, and (iii) in
the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such
Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

 

(e)       Interest
Rate Computations. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference
to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of
365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day
but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative
Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and be binding upon the parties hereto.

 

(f)       Applicable
Margin; Impact of Financial Statements; Interest Rate Elections.

 

   (i)       The
Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the Leverage Ratio Grid or the Applicable Rating Level Grid, as applicable.

 

   (ii)       During
a Leverage Ratio Period, if any financial statements required to be delivered hereunder are not delivered within the time periods specified
herein, then the Applicable Margin and Commitment Fee Rate previously in effect shall continue to apply until such financial statements
are delivered; provided that upon delivery of such financial statements, if timely delivery of such financial statements would
have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin or a higher Commitment Fee Rate for any applicable period than the Applicable
Margin or Commitment Fee Rate, as applicable, actually applied during such time, then the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative
Agent the net accrued additional interest and expense (determined after taking into account any corresponding reduction in the Applicable
Margin or Commitment Fee Rate in any other period), if any, owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin or Commitment Fee Rate.

 

In the event that any financial statements delivered
hereunder are revised or restated after delivery thereof (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such
revision or restatement is made) and such revision or restatement would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin or a
higher Commitment Fee Rate for any period or periods than the Applicable Margin or Commitment Fee Rate, as applicable, actually applied
for such relevant period or periods, then (i) the Borrower shall immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent a correct form of
such financial statements, (ii) such higher Applicable Margin or Commitment Fee Rate shall be applied to such relevant applicable
period or periods, and (iii) the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the net accrued additional interest and
expense (determined after taking into account any corresponding reduction in the Applicable Margin or Commitment Fee Rate in any other
period), if any, owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin or Commitment Fee Rate for such applicable period or periods.

 

    45

     

    

 

 

(iii)          On
any date on which the Borrower has either (A) an Index Debt rating from Moody’s of Baa3 or better or (B) an Index Debt
rating from S&P of BBB- or better, the Borrower may provide written notice to the Administrative Agent of its election to enter into
an Investment Grade Period, together with a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower confirming that no Event of Default
exists, and such Investment Grade Period will commence upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such written notice and certificate
(an “Investment Grade Election”). At any time during an Investment Grade Period, the Borrower may provide written
notice to the Administrative Agent of its election to exit such Investment Grade Period (a “Leverage Ratio Election”),
which Investment Grade Period will end upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such written notice.

 

Section 3.03           Alternate
Rate of Interest.

 

(a)            Subject
to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this ‎Section 3.03,
if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

 

(i)            the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), prior to the commencement of any Interest
Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO
Rate, as applicable (including because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period
or payment period, as applicable; or

 

(ii)           the
Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders that, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing,
the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for the applicable currency and such Interest Period or payment period, as applicable,
will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included
in such Borrowing for the applicable currency and such Interest Period or payment period, as applicable;

 

then
the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as
promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving
rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation
of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing,
such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing and (C) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing for the relevant
rate above, then such request shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type
of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Eurodollar Loan is outstanding on the date
of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this ‎Section 3.03(a) with
respect to a LIBO Rate applicable to such Eurodollar Loan, then until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders
that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan
(or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to,
and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in dollars on such day.

 

(b)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document”
for purposes of this ‎Section 3.03), if a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or Other Benchmark Rate
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 Lenders 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 Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders.

 

    46 

     

    

 

(c)            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 (c) shall not be effective
unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders 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 the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole
discretion.

 

(d)            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.

 

(e)            The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (1) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, an
Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, (2) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (3) the
effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (4) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant
to clause (f) below and (5) 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 Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this ‎Section 3.03,
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 3.03.

 

(f)            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 LIBO 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.

 

    47 

     

    

 

(g)            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. Furthermore, if any Eurodollar Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s
receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented
pursuant to this ‎Section 3.03, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding
Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an
ABR Loan on such day.

 

Section 3.04            Prepayments.

 

(a)             Optional
Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject
to prior notice in accordance with Section 3.04(b).

 

(b)             Notice
and Terms of Optional Prepayment. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or electronic
mail) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City
time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:30
a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date
and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given
in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts as contemplated by Section 2.06,
then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.06. Promptly
following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.
Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount aggregating $3,000,000 or any larger multiple of $1,000,000. Each prepayment
of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest
to the extent required by Section 3.02 and any break funding payments required by Section 5.02.

 

(c)             Mandatory
Prepayments.

 

(i)            If,
after giving effect to any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Maximum Credit Amounts pursuant to Section 2.06(b),
the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds the total Commitments, then the Borrower shall (A) prepay the Borrowings on the date
of such termination or reduction in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and (B) if any excess remains after prepaying
all of the Borrowings as a result of an LC Exposure, pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders an amount equal to such
excess to be held as cash collateral as provided in Section 2.08(j).

 

(ii)           [Reserved].

 

(iii)          [Reserved].

 

    48 

     

    

 

(iv)          [Reserved].

 

(v)           Each
prepayment of Borrowings pursuant to this Section 3.04(c) shall be applied, first, ratably to any ABR Borrowings
then outstanding, and, second, to any Eurodollar Borrowings then outstanding, and if more than one Eurodollar Borrowing is then
outstanding, to each such Eurodollar Borrowing in order of priority beginning with the Eurodollar Borrowing with the least number of
days remaining in the Interest Period applicable thereto and ending with the Eurodollar Borrowing with the most number of days remaining
in the Interest Period applicable thereto.

 

(vi)          Each
prepayment of Borrowings pursuant to this Section 3.04(c) shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid
Borrowings. Prepayments pursuant to this Section 3.04(c) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required
by Section 3.02 and any break funding payments required by Section 5.02.

 

(d)            No
Premium or Penalty. Prepayments permitted or required under this Section 3.04 shall be without premium or penalty, except
as required under Section 5.02.

 

Section 3.05           Fees.

 

(a)            Commitment
Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue
at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and
including the date of this Agreement to but excluding the Termination Date. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the
last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the Termination Date, commencing on the first such date
to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for
the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

 

(b)            Letter
of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee
with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the interest
rate applicable to Eurodollar Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable
to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which
such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, (ii) to the Issuing
Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding
any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding
the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, provided that
in no event shall such fee be less than $500 during any quarter (and for the avoidance of doubt, such fee shall be paid to the Issuing
Banks in respect of the Existing Letters of Credit and the Assumed Letters of Credit, as applicable), and (iii) to the Issuing Bank,
for its own account, its standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing
of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and
December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur
after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the Termination Date and any such fees accruing after
the Termination Date shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 3.05(b) shall
be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days
and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

 

    49 

     

    

 

(c)            Administrative
Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times
separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

 

(d)            Payment
of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in dollars in immediately available funds, to the Administrative
Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation
fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

 

Section 3.06           Extension
of Maturity Date.

 

(a)            Extension
Requests; Responses. The Borrower may, by delivering an Extension Request to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly deliver
a copy to each of the Lenders), not less than sixty (60) days in advance of the Maturity Date in effect at such time (the “Existing
Maturity Date”), request that the Lenders extend the Existing Maturity Date to the first anniversary of such Existing Maturity
Date. Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by written notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date
that is the twentieth (20th) day after the date of the Extension Request, or if such date is not a Business Day, the immediately following
Business Day, (the “Response Date”) advise the Administrative Agent in writing whether or not such Lender agrees to
the requested extension. Each Lender that advises the Administrative Agent that it will not extend the Existing Maturity Date is referred
to herein as a “Non-extending Lender”; provided, that any Lender that does not advise the Administrative Agent
of its consent to such requested extension by the Response Date and any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender on the Response Date shall
be deemed to be a Non-extending Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower, in writing, of each Lender’s election
promptly following the Response Date. The election of any Lender to agree to such an extension shall not obligate any other Lender to
so agree. The Maturity Date may be extended no more than one time pursuant to this Section 3.06.

 

(i)            If,
by the Response Date, Lenders holding Commitments that aggregate 50% or more of the total Commitments shall constitute Non-extending
Lenders, then the Existing Maturity Date shall not be extended and the outstanding principal balance of all Loans and other amounts payable
hereunder shall be payable, and the Commitments shall terminate, on the Existing Maturity Date in effect prior to such extension.

 

(ii)           If
(and only if), by the Response Date, Lenders holding Commitments that aggregate more than 50% of the total Commitments shall have agreed
to extend the Existing Maturity Date (each such consenting Lender, an “Extending Lender”), then effective as of the
Existing Maturity Date, the Maturity Date for such Extending Lenders shall be extended to the first anniversary of the Existing Maturity
Date (subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.06(d)). In the event of such extension, the Commitment
of each Non-extending Lender shall terminate on the Existing Maturity Date in effect for such Non-extending Lender prior to such extension
and the outstanding principal balance of all Loans and other amounts payable hereunder to such Non-extending Lender shall become due
and payable on such Existing Maturity Date and, subject to Section 3.06(c), the total Commitments hereunder shall be reduced
by the Commitments of the Non-extending Lenders so terminated on such Existing Maturity Date.

 

    50 

     

    

 

(b)            Replacement
of Non-Extending Lenders. In the event of any extension of the Existing Maturity Date pursuant to Section 3.06(b)(ii),
the Borrower shall have the right on or before the Existing Maturity Date, at its own expense, to require any Non-extending Lender to
transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12.04) all
its interests, rights (other than its rights to payments pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03
or Section 12.03 arising prior to the effectiveness of such assignment) and obligations under this Agreement to one or
more banks or other financial institutions identified to the Non-extending Lender by the Borrower, which may include any existing Lender
(each a “Replacement Lender”); provided that (i) such Replacement Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder,
shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank (such approvals to not be unreasonably withheld) to
the extent the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Banks would be required to effect an assignment under Section 12.04(b),
(ii) such assignment shall become effective as of a date specified by the Borrower (which shall not be later than the Existing Maturity
Date in effect for such Non-extending Lender prior to the effective date of the requested extension) and (iii) the Replacement Lender
shall pay to such Non-extending Lender in immediately available funds on the effective date of such assignment the principal of and interest
accrued to the date of payment on the outstanding principal amount Loans made by it hereunder and all other amounts accrued and unpaid
for its account or otherwise owed to it hereunder on such date.

 

(c)            Conditions
to Extension. As a condition precedent to each such extension of the Existing Maturity Date pursuant to Section 3.06(b)(ii),
the Borrower shall (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Existing Maturity Date
signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that, as of such date, both before and immediately after giving effect to
such extension, (A) the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct and
(B) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) first make such prepayments of the outstanding Loans and second
provide such cash collateral (or make such other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank) with respect to the outstanding
Letters of Credit as shall be required such that, after giving effect to the termination of the Commitments of the Non-extending Lenders
pursuant to Section 3.06(b) and any assignment pursuant to Section 3.06(c), the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure
less the face amount of any Letter of Credit supported by any such cash collateral (or other satisfactory arrangements) so provided does
not exceed the aggregate amount of Commitments being extended.

 

(d)            Consents
Not Required; No Amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) no consent of any Lender (other than the existing Lenders participating
in the extension of the Existing Maturity Date) shall be required for any extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 3.06
and (ii) the operation of this Section 3.06 in accordance with its terms is not an amendment subject to Section 12.02.

 

ARTICLE IV

Payments; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs

 

Section 4.01           Payments
Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

 

(a)            Payments
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall make each payment or prepayment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest,
fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03
or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due or the date fixed for any prepayment hereunder, in immediately
available funds, without defense, deduction, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may,
in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating
interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices specified in Section 12.01,
except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Section 5.01,
Section 5.02, Section 5.03 and Section 12.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.
The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient
promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall
be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable
for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars.

 

    51 

     

    

 

(b)            Application
of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully
all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first,
towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements
then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements
then due to such parties.

 

(c)            Sharing
of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect
of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment
of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than
the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all
such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on
their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased
and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price
restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 4.01(c) shall
not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement
or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations
in LC Disbursements to any assignee or Participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the
provisions of this Section 4.01(c) shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it
may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise
against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor
of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

 

Section 4.02           Presumption
of Payment by the Borrower. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received, prior to any date on which any payment is due to
the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks pursuant to the terms hereof or any other Loan Document
(including any date that is fixed for prepayment by notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.04(b)),
notice from the Borrower that the Borrower will not make such payment or prepayment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower
has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the
Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount
so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed
to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

 

Section 4.03           Defaulting
Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following
provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

 

(a)            fees
shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.05(a);.

 

    52 

     

    

 

(b)            any
payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender
(whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 10.02(c) or otherwise) or received by the Administrative
Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the
Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent
hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank
hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance
with this Section; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any
Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by
the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account
and released pro rata in order to (i) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect
to Loans under this Agreement and (ii) cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting
Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with this Section 4.03; sixth,
to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
obtained by any Lender or the Issuing Banks against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its
obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists,
to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the
Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement
or under any other Loan Document; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction;
provided that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which
such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (ii) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit
were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied
solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied
to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded
participations in the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure are held by the Lenders
pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 4.03(d). Any payments, prepayments or
other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post
cash collateral pursuant to this Section 4.03 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each
Lender irrevocably consents hereto;

 

(c)            the
Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Majority Lenders
have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 12.02);
provided that this Section 4.03(c) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment,
waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby;

 

(d)            if
any LC Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

 

(i)            all
or any part of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their
respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent that such reallocation does not, as to any non-Defaulting Lender, cause such
non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed its Commitment;

 

    53 

     

    

 

(ii)           if
the reallocation described in Section 4.03(d)(i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall
within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Banks only the
Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation
pursuant to Section 4.03(d)(i)) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.08(j) for so long
as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

 

(iii)          if
the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to Section 4.03(d)(ii) then
the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.05(b) with respect
to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

 

(iv)          if
the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to Section 4.03(d)(i), then the fees payable to the
Lenders pursuant to Section 3.05(a) and Section 3.05(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting
Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and

 

(v)           if
all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to Sections
4.03(d)(i) or (ii), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder,
all letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.05(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall
be payable to the Issuing Banks until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

 

(e)            so
long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless
it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then-outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the
Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 4.03(d) and
LC Exposure related to any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent
with Section 4.03(d)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

 

If (a) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action
with respect to a Lender Parent shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (b) any Issuing
Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which
such Lender commits to extend credit, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the
Issuing Banks shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to such Issuing Bank to defease any
risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

 

In the event that each of the Administrative
Agent, the Borrower and each Issuing Bank agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender
to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified
in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to cash collateral), the
LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender
shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for
such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Subject to Section 12.19, no reallocation hereunder
shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having
become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased
exposure following such reallocation.

ARTICLE V

Increased Costs; Break Funding Payments; Taxes

 

Section 5.01            Increased
Costs.

 

(a)             Eurodollar
Changes in Law. If any Change in Law shall:

 

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

 

(ii)           impose
on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this
Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

 

(iii)          subject
any Credit Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (c) through (e) of
the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Other Connection Taxes that are imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated)
or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations,
or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

 

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

 

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

 

(c)            Certificates.
A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing
Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 5.01(a) or (b) shall be delivered
to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may
be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

 

    55 

     

    

 

(d)            Effect
of Failure or Delay in Requesting Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand
such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this
Section 5.01 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 120 days prior to the date that such Lender or the
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of
such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change
in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 120-day period referred to above shall be extended
to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 

Section 5.02           Break
Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest
Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on
the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan
on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 3.04(b) and
is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.04(a), then, in any such event, the Borrower
shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss,
cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the
amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate
that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then-current Interest
Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period
for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate
which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period
from other banks in the eurodollar market.

 

A certificate of any Lender setting forth any
amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall be delivered to the Borrower
and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
10 days after receipt thereof.

 

Section 5.03           Taxes.

 

(a)            Payments
Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor under any Loan Document shall
be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined
in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment
by a Withholding Agent, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the
applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law, and (iii) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes, then the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable
to additional sums payable under this Section 5.03(a)), the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may
be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

 

(b)            Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law.

 

    56 

     

    

 

(c)            Indemnification
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written
demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.03) and any penalties,
interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate of the Administrative Agent, a Lender
or the Issuing Bank as to the amount of such payment or liability under this Section 5.03 shall be delivered to the Borrower
and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

(d)            Status
of Lender. The Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent with any documentation prescribed by law, or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent, certifying as to any entitlement of the Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, any withholding Tax with respect to any
payments to be made to the Lender under any Loan Document. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding
or information reporting requirements. The Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation
expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate
documentation or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to do so. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 5.03(d), the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation
set forth in paragraphs (d)(i), (d)(ii)(A) through (D) and (d)(ii)(F) of this Section) shall not be required if in the
Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost
or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

 

Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing:

 

(i)             if
the Lender is a U.S. Person, the Lender shall provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or about the date on which such
Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent) two properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor forms) certifying that such Lender is exempt
from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax; and

 

(ii)            if
the Lender is a Foreign Lender, then the Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when required
by law or upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

 

(A)           two
properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for benefits
of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

 

(B)            two
properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

 

    57 

     

    

 

(C)            in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code,
(x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of
the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or
a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a
 “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W 8BEN-E (or any
successor forms),

 

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

 

(E)            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, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable
requirements of law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, or

 

(F)            in
the case of a Lender that would be subject to withholding Tax imposed by FATCA on payments made on account of any obligation of the Borrower
hereunder if such Lender fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or
1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall provide such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed
by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that
such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from any
such payments. Solely for purposes of this paragraph, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of
this Agreement.

 

The Lender shall, from time
to time after the initial delivery by the Lender of the forms described above, whenever a lapse in time or change in the Lender’s
circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence so delivered expired, obsolete or inaccurate, promptly (1) deliver
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) renewals, amendments or
additional or successor forms, properly completed and duly executed by the Lender, together with any other certificate or statement of
exemption required in order to confirm or establish the Lender’s status or that the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax or (2) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to deliver any
such forms, certificates or other evidence.

 

(e)            Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower or a Guarantor to a Governmental
Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental
Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent.

 

    58 

     

    

 

(f)             Refunds.
If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant
to this Section 5.03, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or
additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 5.03 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving
rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any
interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request
of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other
charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent
or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.03(f),
in no event will the Administrative Agent or Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 5.03(f) the
payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or Lender, as applicable, in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative
Agent or Lender, as applicable, would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been
deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been
paid. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or
any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

 

(g)            FATCA
Grandfathering. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Effective Date, the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Loans and this Agreement
as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

 

Section 5.04           Mitigation
Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

 

(a)            Designation
of Different Lending Office. If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.01, or (ii) the Borrower
is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.03,
then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or
booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if,
in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (A) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.01
or Section 5.03, as the case may be, in the future and (B) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost
or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

 

    59 

     

    

 

(b)            Replacement
of Lenders. If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.01, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay
any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.03,
(iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or (iv) any Lender does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification,
consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each
of the Lenders affected thereby (so long as the consent of the Majority Lenders (with the percentage in such definition being deemed
to be 75% for this purpose) has been obtained), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and
the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions
contained in Section 12.04(b)), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections
5.01 or 5.03) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations
(which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (A) the Borrower shall have received
the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Banks), which consent shall
not unreasonably be withheld, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its
Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from
the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts)
and (C) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.01 or payments required
to be made pursuant to Section 5.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender
shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise,
the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that (1) an
assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the assignee (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference
pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants), and (2) the
Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed
to have consented to an be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the
other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested
by the applicable Lender; provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

    	 	61

(d)            The
making of such Loan or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit, as applicable, would not conflict with,
or cause any Lender or the Issuing Bank to violate or exceed, any applicable Governmental Requirement, and no Change in Law shall have
occurred, and no litigation shall be pending or threatened, which does or, with respect to any threatened litigation, seeks to, enjoin,

ARTICLE VII

Representations and Warranties

 

The Borrower represents and
warrants to the Lenders that:

 

Section 7.01           Organization;
Powers. Each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries is duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority, and has all material governmental licenses,
authorizations, consents and approvals necessary, to own its assets and to carry on its business as now conducted, and is qualified to
do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except where failure to have such
power, authority, licenses, authorizations, consents, approvals and qualifications could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

Section 7.02           Authority;
Enforceability. The Transactions are within the Borrower’s corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate and, if required, stockholder action (including any action required to be taken by any class of directors of the Borrower or
any other Person, whether interested or disinterested, in order to ensure the due authorization of the Transactions). Each Loan Document
to which the Borrower is a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation
of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law.

 

    	 	62	 

     

    

 

Section 7.03           Approvals;
No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action
by, any Governmental Authority or any other third Person (including shareholders or any class of directors, whether interested or disinterested,
of the Borrower or any other Person), nor is any such consent, approval, registration, filing or other action necessary for the validity
or enforceability of any Loan Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, except such as have been obtained
or made and are in full force and effect other than those third party approvals or consents or filings with the SEC pursuant to the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 which, if not made or obtained, would not cause a Default hereunder, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect or do not have an adverse effect on the enforceability of the Loan Documents, (b) will not violate any applicable
law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or any order
of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding
upon the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or the Borrower’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s Properties, or give rise
to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary and (d) will not result in
the creation or imposition of, or the requirement to create, any Lien on any Property of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary.

 

Section 7.04           Financial
Condition; No Material Adverse Change.

 

(a)            The
Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders its consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders equity and cash
flows as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, reported on by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent public accountants.
Such Financial Statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of
the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of such date and for such period in accordance with GAAP.

 

(b)            Since
December 31, 2020, there has been no event, development or circumstance that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

 

(c)            Neither
the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary has on the date hereof any material Debt (including Disqualified Capital Stock) or any contingent
liabilities, off-balance sheet liabilities or partnerships, liabilities for Taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments or unrealized
or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments, except as referred to or reflected or provided for in the Financial Statements.

 

Section 7.05           Litigation.
There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or,
to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (i) not fully covered
by insurance (except for normal deductibles) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination that, if adversely
determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect (except as disclosed
on Schedule 7.05) or (ii) that involve any Loan Document or the Transactions.

 

Section 7.06           Environmental
Matters. Except as set forth in Schedule 7.06 and for such other matters that individually, or in the aggregate, could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (i) has failed
to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental
Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental
Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability.

 

    	 	63	 

     

    

 

Section 7.07           Compliance
with the Laws and Agreements: No Defaults.

 

(a)            Each
of the Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary is in compliance with all Governmental Requirements applicable to it or its Property and
all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its Property, and possesses all licenses, permits, franchises, exemptions,
approvals and other governmental authorizations necessary for the ownership of its Property and the conduct of its business, except where
the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)            No
Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

Section 7.08           Investment
Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company “controlled”
by an “investment company,” within the meaning of, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.

 

Section 7.09           Taxes.
Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed all Tax returns and reports required to have been filed
and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that are being contested in good
faith by appropriate proceedings and for which the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as applicable, has set aside on its books adequate reserves
in accordance with GAAP or (b) to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in respect of Taxes and other governmental
charges are, in the reasonable opinion of the Borrower, adequate. Except as permitted by Section 9.03, no Tax Lien has been
filed and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, no claim is being asserted with respect to any such Tax or other such governmental charge.

 

Section 7.10           ERISA.

 

(a)            The
Borrower, the Subsidiaries and each ERISA Affiliate have complied in all material respects with ERISA and, where applicable, the Code
regarding each Plan, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in
a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)            Each
Plan is, and has been, established and maintained in substantial compliance with its terms, ERISA and, where applicable, the Code, except
where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(c)            No
liability to the PBGC (other than for the payment of premiums) by the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate is expected by the
Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate to be incurred with respect to any Plan. No ERISA Event with respect to any Plan has occurred
for which the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate has any unsatisfied liability.

 

(d)            Full
payment when due has been made of all amounts which the Borrower, the Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate is required under the terms

(a)            Unless
designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary on Schedule 7.13 as of the date hereof or thereafter, assuming compliance with Section 9.06(b),
any Person that becomes a direct Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be classified as a Restricted

or newly acquired Subsidiary, as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if (i) prior, and after giving effect, to such designation, no Default
would exist and (ii) such designation is deemed to be an Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary in an amount equal to the fair
market value as of the date of such designation of the Borrower’s direct and indirect ownership interest in such Subsidiary and
such Investment would be permitted to be made at the time of such designation under Section 9.05. In the case of any newly

representations and warranties of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries contained in each of the Loan Documents are true and correct
on and as of such date as if made on and as of the date of such redesignation (or, if stated to have been made expressly as of an earlier
date, were true and correct as of such date), (ii) no Default would exist and (iii) the Borrower complies with the requirements
of Section 8.12, Section 8.14 and Section 9.14.

of Proceeds. The Borrower will not permit the proceeds of the Loans to be used for any purpose other than those permitted by Section 7.18.

Act of 1934 or any rule or regulation thereunder, in each case as now in effect or as the same may hereinafter be in effect. If
requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing
effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form U-1 or such other form referred to in Regulation U, Regulation T or Regulation
X of the Board, as the case may be. The Borrower will not request any Borrowing or Letter of Credit, and the Borrower shall not use,

giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (B) for the purpose of funding,
financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, or

Borrower, a Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate is required to pay as contributions thereto.

 

(b)            terminate
any Plan in a manner, or take any other action with respect to any Plan, which could result in any liability of the Borrower.

and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any other Person (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) (any such transaction,
a “consolidation”), or liquidate or dissolve, except that, if at the time thereof and immediately after giving effect thereto
no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i) any Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) may

upon the consummation of the Division, the assets of the applicable Dividing Person are held by one or more Restricted Subsidiaries at
such time, or, with respect to assets not so held by one or more Restricted Subsidiaries, such Division, in the aggregate, would otherwise
result in a disposition permitted by Section 9.11(f) and (v) any Restricted Subsidiary may liquidate or dissolve
if the Borrower determines in good faith that such liquidation or dissolution is in the best interests of the Borrower and is not materially
disadvantageous to the Lenders; provided that any such merger or Division involving a Person that is not a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary
immediately prior to such merger or Division shall not be permitted unless also permitted by Section 9.05.

of cash collateral to secure the LC Exposure as provided in Section 2.08(j)), shall become due and payable immediately, without
presentment, demand, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
waived by the Borrower and each Guarantor and (iii) require that the Borrower provide cash collateral as required in Section 2.08(j);
and in case of an Event of Default described in Section 10.01(h) or Section 10.01(i), the Commitments shall
automatically terminate and the Notes and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all
fees and the other obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors accrued hereunder and under the Notes and the other Loan Documents
(including any break funding payment and the payment of cash collateral to secure the LC Exposure as provided in Section 2.08(j)),
shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of the Borrower to cash collateralize the LC Exposure as provided in clause
(iii) above shall automatically become effective, in each case, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any
kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower and each Guarantor.

 

(b)            In
the case of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will have all other rights and remedies available
at law and equity.

 

(c)            All
proceeds received after maturity of the Loans, whether by acceleration or otherwise, subject to Section 4.03, shall be applied:

 

(i)            first,
to payment or reimbursement of that portion of the Indebtedness constituting fees, expenses and indemnities payable to the Administrative
Agent in its capacity as such;

 

(ii)          second,
pro rata to payment or reimbursement of that portion of the Indebtedness constituting fees, expenses and indemnities payable to
the Lenders;

 

(iii)         third,
pro rata to payment of accrued interest on the Loans;

 

(iv)          fourth,
pro rata to payment of principal outstanding on the Loans, LC Disbursements that have not yet been reimbursed by or on behalf
of the Borrower at such time;

 

(v)           fifth,
pro rata to any other Indebtedness;

 

(vi)         sixth,
to serve as cash collateral to be held by the Administrative Agent to secure the LC Exposure; and

 

(vii)        seventh,
any excess, after all of the Indebtedness shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, shall be paid to the Borrower or as otherwise
required by any Governmental Requirement.

ARTICLE XI

The Agents

 

Section 11.01         Appointment;
Powers. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent to serve as the administrative
agent under the Loan Documents and each Lender and each Issuing Bank authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent
on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent
by the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without
limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform
its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers and
remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents.

 

Section 11.02         Duties
and Obligations of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly
set forth in the Loan Documents. In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative
Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein
relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless
of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing (the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with
reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under
agency doctrine of any applicable law; rather, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect
only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties), (b) the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to
take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except as provided in Section 11.03, and (c) except
as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure
to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving
as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim
against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement
and/or the transactions contemplated hereby. Nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to
account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account. The Administrative
Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice
of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, and shall not be responsible for
or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or under any other
Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or
other terms or conditions set forth herein or in any other Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency,
validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument
or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VI or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other
than to confirm receipt of items (which on their face purport to be items) expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent
or as to those conditions precedent expressly required to be to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction, (vi) the existence,
value, perfection or priority of any collateral security or the financial or other condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or
any other obligor or guarantor, or (vii) any failure by the Borrower or any other Person (other than itself) to perform any of its
obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document or the performance or observance of any covenants, agreements or other terms or
conditions set forth herein or therein. For purposes of determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan,
or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, each Lender
and each Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter
required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender or an Issuing Bank unless the Administrative
Agent shall have received written notice from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the proposed closing date specifying its objection
thereto.

 

    82 

     

    

 

Section 11.03         Action
by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary
powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent
is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02) and in all cases the Administrative Agent shall be fully
justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Loan Documents unless it shall (a) receive written instructions
from the Majority Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under
the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02) specifying the action to be taken and (b) be indemnified to its satisfaction
by the Lenders against any and all liability and expenses which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action. The instructions as aforesaid and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto by the Administrative Agent shall be binding
on all of the Lenders. Upon receipt from the Borrower of a notice of the occurrence of any Default pursuant to Section 8.02(a),
the Administrative Agent will promptly provide to the Lenders a copy of such notice. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, then
the Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the requisite Lenders in the written
instructions (with indemnities) described in this Section 11.03, 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 as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. In no event, however,
shall the Administrative Agent be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is
contrary to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay
under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture,
modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency
or reorganization or relief of debtors. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, neither the Syndication Agent nor the Documentation
Agents shall have any obligation to perform any act in respect thereof. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties
shall (i) be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders or the Lenders
(or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith
to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.02), and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall not
be liable for any action taken or not taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any other document or instrument
referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith INCLUDING ITS OWN ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE, except for
its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (the absence of which is to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment) or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals,
statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any Guarantor or any officer thereof 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 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 other Loan Document or for any failure of the Borrower or any Restricted
Subsidiary to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

 

    83 

     

    

 

Section 11.04         Reliance
by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability under or in respect
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document
or other writing (which writing may be a fax, electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or
any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent or otherwise authenticated
by the proper Person (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof),
and the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby waive the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s record of such statement, except
in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel
(who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action
taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent may deem
and treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment or
transfer thereof permitted hereunder shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may rely on the Register
to the extent set forth in Section 12.04(b). The Administrative Agent makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or
Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or
on behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

 

Section 11.05         Subagents.
The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document
by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform
any and all of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The
exculpatory provisions of this Article XI shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall
not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines
in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection
of such sub-agent.

 

Section 11.06         Resignation
of Administrative Agent.

 

(a)            The
Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and
the Borrower, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall
have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority
Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring
Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank
with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior
written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor
shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s
resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary
to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. The fees payable by the
Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the
Borrower and such successor.

 

    84 

     

    

 

(b)            Notwithstanding
Section 11.06(a), in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such
appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative
Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date
of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties
and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) the Majority Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required
to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative
Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or
made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and each Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness of
the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article XI and Section 12.03,
as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect
for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

 

Section 11.07         Agents
as Lenders. Each bank serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other
Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money
to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of banking,
trust or other business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder and without
any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks. The terms “Issuing Banks”, “Lenders”, “Majority
Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include such Agent in its individual capacity
as a Lender, Issuing Bank or as one of the Majority Lenders, as applicable.

 

    85 

     

    

 

Section 11.08         No
Reliance. Each Lender represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its
business and that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Arranger or any other
Lender, or any Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made
its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder. Each Lender
also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Arranger or any
other Lender, or any Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material
non-pubic information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall
from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement,
any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except as expressly set forth herein,
the Agents shall not be required to keep themselves informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or to inspect the Properties or books
of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished
to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Agent or the Arrangers shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates)
which may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its Affiliates. In this regard, each Lender acknowledges that Simpson Thacher &
Bartlett LLP is acting in this transaction as special counsel to the Administrative Agent only, except to the extent otherwise expressly
stated in any legal opinion or any Loan Document. Each other party hereto will consult with its own legal counsel to the extent that
it deems necessary in connection with the Loan Documents and the matters contemplated therein. Each Lender, by delivering its signature
page to this Agreement on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other
Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to
and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date. Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby agrees that (a) if the Administrative Agent notifies
such Lender or Issuing Bank that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such
Lender or Issuing Bank from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal,
interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender
or Issuing Bank (whether or not known to such Lender or Issuing Bank), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof),
such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount
of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect
of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such
amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance
with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (b) to the extent permitted by applicable
law, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense
or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any
Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice
of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Issuing Bank under this Section 11.08 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates
(c) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative
Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (d) that was not preceded
or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. 
Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have
been sent in error, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from
the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative
Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest
thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank
to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative
Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. The Borrower and each Guarantor
hereby agrees that (e) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Lender or Issuing Bank
that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of
such Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to such amount and (f) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or
otherwise satisfy any Indebtedness owed by the Borrower or any Guarantor, except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment
is, and solely with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent
from the Borrower or any Guarantor for the purpose of making such erroneous Payment. Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.08
shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement
of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Indebtedness under any Loan Document.

 

    86 

     

    

 

Section 11.09         Administrative
Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any Guarantor under
any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent
(irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any reimbursement obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement shall then be due
and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any
demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 

(a)            to
file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Disbursements
and all other Indebtedness that is owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have
the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 3.01, 3.05,
5.01, 5.03 and 12.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

 

(b)            to
collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 

and
any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized
by each Lender and each Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent
shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount
due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 12.03). Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Indebtedness or the rights of
any Lender or Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in
any such proceeding.

 

Section 11.10        The
Arrangers, the Documentation Agents and the Syndication Agent. The Arrangers, the Documentation Agents and the Syndication Agent
shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents other than their duties, responsibilities
and liabilities in their capacity as Lenders hereunder.

 

Section 11.11         Posting
of Communications.

 

(a)            The
Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and
the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on IntraLinksTM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform
chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

 

(b)            Although
the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented
or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system)
and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic
Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the
distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for
approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there
may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower
hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of
such distribution.

 

    87 

     

    

 

(c)            THE
APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE
PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC
PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE 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 THE APPLICABLE PARTIES
IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ARRANGER,
ANY AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE
BORROWER, ANY GUARANTOR, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR
INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT
OF THE BORROWER’S, ANY GUARANTOR’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET
OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

 

(d)            Each
Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted
to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan
Documents. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of
electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the
foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

 

(e)            Each
of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by
applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative
Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

 

(f)             Nothing
herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to give any notice or other communication
pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

 

Section 11.12         Certain
ERISA Matters.

 

(a)            Each
Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the
date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative

of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement,

 

    88

Section 12.02         Waivers;
Amendments.

 

(a)            No
failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising,
and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such
right, power or privilege, under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise
of any right, power or privilege, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right, power or privilege, under any
of the Loan Documents preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights
and remedies of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall
be permitted by Section 12.02(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit
shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Lender or the
Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

 

    90 

     

    

 

(b)            Subject
to Section 3.03(b), Section 4.03(c), Section 12.02(c) and Section 12.16, neither
this Agreement nor any provision hereof nor any other Loan Document, nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except
pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Majority Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment or the
Maximum Credit Amount of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) [reserved], (iii) reduce the principal
amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, or reduce any other
Indebtedness hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) postpone
the scheduled date of payment or prepayment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees
payable hereunder, or any other Indebtedness hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any
such payment, or postpone or extend the Termination Date without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (v) change
Section 2.06(b), Section 4.01(b) or Section 4.01(c) in a manner that would alter the ratable
reduction of Commitments or the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender affected
thereby, (vi) waive or amend Section 3.04(b), Section 4.03(b), Section 6.01 or Section 10.02(c) without
the written consent of each Lender, or (vii) change any of the provisions of this Section 12.02(b) or the definitions
of “Majority Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend
or modify any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or any other
Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise
affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, or the Issuing Banks hereunder or under any other Loan Document
without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such other Agent or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any supplement to Schedule 7.13 (Subsidiaries) shall be effective simply by delivering to the Administrative Agent
a supplemental schedule clearly marked as such and, upon receipt, the Administrative Agent will promptly deliver a copy thereof to the
Lenders.

 

(c)            If
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower acting together identify any ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect
in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend,
modify or supplement such provision to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect, and such amendment
shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall provide
the Lenders a copy of such amendment after it becomes effective.

 

(d)            The
Administrative Agent shall, and is hereby authorized by the Lenders to, release and discharge any Guarantor, immediately and without
any further act, upon (i) the dissolution, disposition or merger of such Guarantor in compliance with this Agreement or (ii) the
written request of the Borrower, provided that, after giving effect to such release and discharge, no Default or Event of Default
would exist or result therefrom.

this Section 12.03, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket
expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY EACH AGENT, THE ARRANGERS, EACH ISSUING BANK AND EACH LENDER, AND EACH RELATED PARTY OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING
PERSONS (EACH SUCH PERSON BEING CALLED AN “INDEMNITEE”) AGAINST, AND DEFEND AND HOLD EACH INDEMNITEE HARMLESS FROM,
ANY AND ALL LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, LIABILITIES AND RELATED EXPENSES, INCLUDING THE FEES, CHARGES AND DISBURSEMENTS
OF ANY COUNSEL FOR ANY INDEMNITEE, INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS
A RESULT OF (i) THE EXECUTION OR DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY OR THEREBY, THE PERFORMANCE BY THE PARTIES HERETO OR THE PARTIES TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER
OR THEREUNDER OR THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR BY ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, (ii) THE FAILURE OF THE
BORROWER OR ANY RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY TO COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, INCLUDING THIS AGREEMENT, OR WITH ANY GOVERNMENTAL
REQUIREMENT, (iii) ANY INACCURACY OF ANY REPRESENTATION OR ANY BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY OR COVENANT OF THE BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR
SET FORTH IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY INSTRUMENTS, DOCUMENTS OR CERTIFICATIONS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, (iv) ANY
LOAN OR LETTER OF CREDIT OR THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS THEREFROM, INCLUDING (A) ANY REFUSAL BY AN ISSUING BANK TO HONOR A DEMAND

OR OTHER IMPROPER PRESENTATION OF THE DOCUMENTS PRESENTED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, (v) ANY OTHER ASPECT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, (vi) THE
OPERATIONS OF THE BUSINESS OF THE BORROWER AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES BY THE BORROWER AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES, (vii) ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW

RELEASE, THREATENED RELEASE, USE, TRANSPORT, DISPOSAL, ARRANGEMENT OF DISPOSAL OR TREATMENT OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS ON OR AT ANY OF THEIR
PROPERTIES, (viii) THE BREACH OR NON-COMPLIANCE BY THE BORROWER OR ANY SUBSIDIARY WITH ANY ENVIRONMENTAL LAW APPLICABLE TO THE BORROWER
OR ANY SUBSIDIARY, (ix) THE PAST OWNERSHIP BY THE BORROWER OR ANY SUBSIDIARY OF ANY OF THEIR PROPERTIES OR PAST ACTIVITY ON ANY
OF THEIR PROPERTIES WHICH, THOUGH LAWFUL AND FULLY PERMISSIBLE AT THE TIME, COULD RESULT IN PRESENT LIABILITY, (x) THE PRESENCE,

OF TORTS OF ONE OR MORE OF THE INDEMNITEES OR BY REASON OF STRICT LIABILITY IMPOSED WITHOUT FAULT ON ANY ONE OR MORE OF THE INDEMNITEES;
PROVIDED THAT SUCH INDEMNITY SHALL NOT, AS TO ANY INDEMNITEE, BE AVAILABLE TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LOSSES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES

GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNITEE.

 

    92 

     

    

 

(c)            Each
Lender severally agrees to pay any amount required to be paid by the Borrower under Sections 12.03(a) and (b) to
the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank and each Related Party of any of the foregoing 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 Percentage in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 12.03 (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 Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether
before or after the payment of the Loans) 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 the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense,
as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in its capacity as such; provided further that no
Lender 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 by a final and nonappealable 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 12.03
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

    93 

     

    

 

(d)            To
the extent permitted by applicable law (i) the Borrower shall not assert, and the Borrower hereby waives, any claim against the
Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, and any Related
Party of any of the foregoing Persons for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through
telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), and (ii) no party hereto shall
assert, and each such party hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this
Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter
of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this clause (d)(ii) shall relieve the Borrower
of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against
such Indemnitee by a third party.

 

(e)            All
amounts due under this Section 12.03 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

Section 12.03 shall not apply to Taxes.

 

Section 12.04         Successors
and Assigns.

 

(a)            The
provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower
may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and
any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign
or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 12.04. Nothing in this Agreement,
expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided
in Section 12.04(c)) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

(b)            (i) Subject
to the conditions set forth in Section 12.04(b)(ii), any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than an Ineligible
Institution) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, participations
in Letters of Credit and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld)
of:

 

(A)           the
Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required if such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender,
an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, is to any other assignee;

 

(B)            the
Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to an assignee
that is a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment; and

 

(C)            each
Issuing Bank.

 

    94 

     

    

 

(ii)            Assignments
shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

 

(A)            except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning
Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined
as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less
than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the
Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

 

(B)            each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement;

 

(C)            the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (1) an Assignment and Assumption or (2) to
the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform
as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with a processing and
recordation fee of $3,500; and

 

(D)            the
assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee
designates one or more contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the
Borrower, the Subsidiaries and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such
information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities
laws.

 

(iii)         Subject
to Section 12.04(b)(iv) and the acceptance and recording thereof, from and after the effective date specified in each
Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment
and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of
an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall
cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.01, Section 5.02, Section 5.03
and Section 12.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not
comply with this Section 12.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation
in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.04(c).

 

(iv)         The
Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of
each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Maximum Credit Amount of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant
to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to
the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall
be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
prior notice. In connection with any changes to the Register, if necessary, the Administrative Agent will reflect the revisions on Annex
I and forward a copy of such revised Annex I to the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and each Lender.

 

    95 

     

    

 

 

(v)            Upon
its receipt of (A) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or (B) to the
extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as
to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative
Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 12.04(b)(ii)(C) and
any written consent to such assignment required by Section 12.04(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment
and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the
assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.05(b), 2.08(d) or
(e), 4.02 or 12.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption
and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued
interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided
in this Section 12.04(b).

 

(c)            Any
Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Banks, sell participations to
one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible Institution, in all or a portion of
such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it);
provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide
that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the proviso to Section 12.02 that affects such Participant.
In addition such agreement must provide that the Participant be bound by the provisions of Section 12.03. Subject to Section 12.04(c)(ii),
the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.01, Section 5.02 and
Section 5.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 5.03(d),
it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.03(d) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)
to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.04(b); provided
that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 5.04 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of
this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.01 or 5.03, with respect
to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive
a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that
sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to
effectuate the provisions of Section 5.04(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant
also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees
to be subject to Section 4.01(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely
for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant
and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan
Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or
any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s
interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent
that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form
under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive
absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such
participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative
Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

 

    96

     

    

 

(d)            Any
Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations
of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank, and this Section 12.04(d) shall
not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest
shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

 

(e)            Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Section 12.04, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender or any
grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower and the Guarantors
to file a registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any state.

 

Section 12.05         Survival;
Revival; Reinstatement.

 

(a)            All
covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein, in the other Loan Documents and in the certificates
or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have
been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans
and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding
that the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect
representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal
of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter
of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 5.01, Section 5.02,
Section 5.03 and Section 12.03 and Article XI shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless
of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters
of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

 

(b)            To
the extent that any payments on the Indebtedness or proceeds of any collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent
or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any bankruptcy
law, common law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Indebtedness so satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment
or proceeds had not been received and the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement
and each Loan Document shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, each Loan Document shall be automatically reinstated and
the Borrower shall take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to effect such reinstatement.

 

Section 12.06         Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

 

(a)            This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute

    97

     

    

 

(b)            This
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to (i) fees payable to the Administrative Agent
and (ii) reductions of the LC Commitment of any Issuing Bank constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject
matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter
hereof and thereof. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO
AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN
ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

 

(c)            Except
as provided in Section 6.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative
Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each
of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns.

 

(d)            Delivery

The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in
or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to
include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect,
validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system,
as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept electronic signatures
in any form or format without its prior written consent.

 

Section 12.07          Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as
to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

Section 12.08          Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective
Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and
all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations (of whatsoever kind, including
obligations under Swap Agreements) at any time owing by such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or
the account of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary
owed to such Lender, or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch office or Affiliate of such
Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided
that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so setoff shall be paid over
immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03 and, pending
such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement
describing in reasonable detail the Indebtedness owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights
of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 12.08 are in addition to other rights
and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender
and Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Section 12.10          Headings.
Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this
Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

 

Section 12.11          Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined
below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents,
including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be
informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent
requested by any Governmental Authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners),
(c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan
Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder
or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 12.11,
to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement or any pledge or assignment permitted under Section 12.04(d) or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty
(or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent
of the Borrower, (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this
Section 12.11 or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential
basis from a source other than the Borrower or (i) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating
the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided for herein or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency
in connection with the issuance and monitoring of identification numbers with respect to the credit facilities provided for herein. For
the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating
to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and their businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Banks or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary and other than information
pertaining to this Agreement routinely and customarily provided by Arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers,
that serve the lending industry; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary after the
date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality
of Information as provided in this Section 12.11 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such
Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information.

 

Section 12.12          Interest
Rate Limitation. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Lender shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges
and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall
exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved
by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan, together with
all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that
would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated
and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum
Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the NYFRB Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been
received by such Lender.

LOAN DOCUMENTS ON THE BASIS THAT THE PARTY HAD NO NOTICE OR KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH PROVISION OR THAT THE PROVISION IS NOT “CONSPICUOUS.”

 

Section 12.14          No
Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the agreement of the Lenders to make Loans and the Issuing
Bank to issue, amend, renew or extend Letters of Credit hereunder are solely for the benefit of the Borrower, and no other Person (including
any Subsidiary of the Borrower, any obligor, contractor, subcontractor, supplier or materialman) shall have any rights, claims, remedies
or privileges hereunder or under any other Loan Document against the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender

Section 12.15          USA
Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of
Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information

Section 12.16         Most
Favored Lender.

 

(a)            If
at any time (including as in effect on the Effective Date) any Material Debt Document shall include any financial covenant, any event
of default (whether set forth as a undertaking, event of default, prepayment event or other such provision) or prepayment right not set
forth herein or that would be more beneficial to the Lenders than any analogous provision contained in this Agreement (any such financial
covenant, event of default or prepayment right, an “Additional Provision”), then the Borrower shall provide a Most
Favored Lender Notice to the Administrative Agent. Thereupon, unless waived in writing by the Majority Lenders within thirty (30) days
of receipt of such Most Favored Lender Notice by the Administrative Agent, such Additional Provision (and any related definitions) shall
be deemed automatically incorporated by reference into this Agreement, mutatis mutandis (including any grace period, if applicable,
with respect thereto), as if set forth fully herein, without any further action required on the part of any Person, effective as of the
date when such Additional Provision became effective under such Material Debt Document. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary,
it is hereby agreed that if no such Most Favored Lender Notice is provided by the date required herein, such Additional Provision shall
be deemed automatically incorporated by reference in accordance with the terms of the previous sentence, effective as of the date when
such Additional Provision became effective under such Material Debt Document. Thereafter upon the request of any Lender, the Borrower
shall enter into any additional agreement or amendment to this Agreement reasonably requested by such Lender evidencing any of the foregoing.
As used herein, “Most Favored Lender Notice” means, in respect of any Additional Provision, a written notice to the
Administrative Agent delivered promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the inclusion of such Additional Provision
in any Material Debt Document (including by way of amendment or other modification of any existing provision thereof), by a Financial
Officer of the Borrower referring to the provisions of this Section 12.16 and setting forth a description of such Additional
Provision (including any defined terms used therein) and related explanatory calculations, as applicable.

 

(b)            So
long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date on which any Additional Provision is amended or modified
in the relevant Material Debt Document such that such Additional Provision is less restrictive on the Borrower, any Additional Provision
is removed from such Material Debt Document or such Material Debt Document shall be terminated, any Additional Provision incorporated
into this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.16:

 

(i)             shall
be deemed amended, modified or removed as a result of any amendment, modification or removal of such Additional Provision under such Material
Debt Document and

 

(ii)            shall
be deemed deleted from this Agreement at such time as such Material Debt Document shall be terminated and no amounts shall be outstanding
thereunder; provided, that,

 

(A)            other
than as provided in Section 12.02, this Agreement shall not be amended to delete any covenant, undertaking, Event of Default,
restriction or other provision included in this Agreement (other than by operation of Section 12.16(a)) or to make any such
provision less restrictive on the Borrower and its Subsidiaries; and

 

(B)            if
any lender or agent under such Material Debt Document is paid any remuneration as consideration for any amendment, modification or removal
of such Additional Provision under such Material Debt Document, then such remuneration shall be concurrently paid, on the same equivalent
terms, ratably to each Lender.

 

Section 12.17          Material
Non-Public Information.

 

(a)            EACH
LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 12.11 FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE
MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS
DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC
INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

 

    102

     

    

 

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

 

Section 12.18         No
Fiduciary Duty, etc.

 

(a)            The
Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations
except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity
of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated
herein and therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Borrower or any other Person. The Borrower agrees
that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in connection
with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party
is advising the Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. The Borrower
shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and
appraisal of the transactions contemplated herein or in the other Loan Documents, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility
or liability to the Borrower with respect thereto.

 

(b)            The
Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party, together with
its Affiliates, is a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing
investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking and
other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other
securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, the Borrower and other companies with which the
Borrower may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit
Party or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be
exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion.

 

(c)            In
addition, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party and its
affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies
in respect of which the Borrower may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. No Credit Party
will use confidential information obtained from the Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other
relationships with the Borrower in connection with the performance by such Credit Party of services for other companies, and no Credit
Party will furnish any such information to other companies. The Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to
use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to the Borrower, confidential information obtained
from other companies.

 

    103

     

    

 

Section 12.19         Acknowledgement
and Consent to Bail-In of EEA 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 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 EEA 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 entity, 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.

 

Section 12.20         Acknowledgment
Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements
or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported
QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the
regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC
Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated
to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

 

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