amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Lender, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the
event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing
Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
 (c) Limitations on Amounts. A
Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $30,000,000 and (ii) the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Revolving Credit Commitments. 
 (d) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date twelve months
after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, twelve months after the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit, so long as such renewal or extension occurs within three
months of such then-current expiration date) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date. 
 (e) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) by any Issuing Lender, and without any further action on the part of such Issuing
Lender or the Lenders, such Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Credit
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph 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. 
 In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and
unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for account of each Issuing Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender promptly upon the request of such
Issuing Lender at any time from the time of such LC Disbursement until such LC Disbursement is reimbursed by the Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be 

  

 – 32 – 

 
refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each such payment
shall be made in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Credit
Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower
pursuant to the next following paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that the Revolving Credit Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such
Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Credit Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement shall
not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 
 (f)
Reimbursement. If any Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Lender in respect of 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 (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York
City time, 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, provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than $500,000, the
Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with a Revolving Credit ABR Borrowing or a Swingline Loan 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 Revolving Credit ABR Borrowing or Swingline Loan. 
 If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable
LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. 
 (g)
Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (f) of this Section 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, 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 any Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or
other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and (iv) any other event or 

  

 – 33 – 

 
circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 
 Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Lender, 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 by any Issuing Lender 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 applicable Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to
excuse any Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential 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 such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly
agree that: 
 (i) each Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the
terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with
the terms of such Letter of Credit; 
 (ii) each Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to
accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and 
 (iii) this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by the Issuing Lenders when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and
the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing). 
 (h)
Disbursement Procedures. Each Issuing Lender shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Lender shall promptly
after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that
any failure to give or delay in giving such notice 

  

 – 34 – 

 
shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such
LC Disbursement. 
 (i) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower
shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, 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 Syndicated ABR Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this
Section, then Section 2.12(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to
paragraph (f) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be for account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 
 (j)
Replacement of the Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement between the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to
Section 2.11(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to
be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to include such successor and/or any previous Issuing Lender, as the context shall require. After the replacement of any Issuing Lender
hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender 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 or to amend, renew or extend Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement. 
 (k) Cash Collateralization. If either (i) an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been
accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing more than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demand the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, or (ii) the Borrower shall be required to provide cover for LC Exposure pursuant to
Section 2.10(b), the Borrower shall immediately deposit into the Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to, in the case of an Event of Default, the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and, in the case of
cover pursuant to Section 2.10(b), the amount required under Section 2.10(b); provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become 

  

 – 35 – 

 
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 described
in clause (h) or (i) of Article VIII. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent in the Collateral Account as collateral in the first instance for the LC Exposure under this Agreement and thereafter for the payment of the
“Secured Obligations” under and as defined in the Security Agreement, and for these purposes the Borrower hereby grants a security interest to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in the Collateral Account and in any
financial assets (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) or other property held therein. 
 (l) Additional Issuing Lenders. From
time to time, pursuant to a written agreement signed by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and a Revolving Credit Lender, the Borrower may designate such Revolving Credit Lender (in addition to the Issuing Lenders referred to in clauses
(a) and (b) in the definition of “Issuing Lender”) to act in such capacity and if reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as an Issuing Lender (provided that whether or not such Revolving Credit Lender shall agree to
act in such capacity shall be at its sole discretion). 
 (m) Reporting. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each
Issuing Lender shall (i) provide to the Administrative Agent copies of any notice received from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.05(b) no later than the next Business Day after receipt thereof and (ii) report in writing to the
Administrative Agent (A) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the aggregate face amount of
the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred (and whether the amount thereof changed), and the Issuing Lender shall be permitted
to issue, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit if the Administrative Agent shall not have advised the Issuing Lender that such issuance, amendment renewal or extension would not be in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement,
(B) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender makes any L/C Disbursement, the date of such L/C Disbursement and the amount of such L/C Disbursement and (C) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative
Agent shall reasonably request, including but not limited to prompt verification of such information as may be requested by the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings. 
 (a) Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each
Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice
to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available 

  

 – 36 – 

 
to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New
York City and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Revolving Credit ABR Borrowings made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(f) shall be
remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Lender. 
 (b) Presumption by the Administrative Agent. 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 paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has
not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate 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 2.07. Interest Elections. 
 (a) Elections by the Borrower for Syndicated Borrowings. The Loans constituting each Syndicated Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall
have the Interest Period specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a
Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect the Interest Period therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated
ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans constituting such Borrowing, and the Loans constituting each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or
continued. 
 (b) Notice of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative
Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Syndicated Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of
such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the
Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. 
  

 – 37 – 

 (c) Content of Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request
shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest
Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to
clauses (iii) and (iv) of this paragraph 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 therefor after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d). 
 (d) Notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall
advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) Failure to Elect; Events
of Default. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at
the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Syndicated ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request
of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Syndicated Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each
Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to a Syndicated ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period therefor. 
 SECTION 2.08.
Termination and Reduction of the Commitments. 
 (a) Scheduled Termination. Unless previously terminated, (i) the Term
Loan Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Effective Date, and 

  

 – 38 – 

 
(ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date. 
 (b) Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class;
provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class pursuant to this Section shall be in an amount that is $10,000,000 or a larger multiple of $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving
Credit Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Revolving Credit Commitments. 
 (c) Notice of Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the
Commitments of any Class under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any
notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments
delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified
effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. 
 (d) Effect of Termination or Reduction. Any termination or reduction of the
Commitments of either Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of either Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class. 
 SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 
 (a) Repayment. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay the Loans as follows: 
 (i) to the Administrative Agent for account of the Revolving Credit Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans on the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date, 
 (ii) to the Administrative Agent for account of the Term Loan Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans on the Principal
Payment Dates in the aggregate principal amount on each Principal Payment Date equal to the percentage set forth below opposite such Principal Payment Date of the aggregate principal amount of 

  

 – 39 – 

 
the Term Loans made on the Effective Date (subject to adjustment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section): 
  

				
	 Principal Payment Date
	  	Percentage	 
	 Each of the first through the 24th Principal Payment Dates
	  	0.25	%
	 Each of the 25th through the 28th Principal Payment Dates
	  	23.5	%

 (iii) to each Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline
Loan of such Swingline Lender on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least five Business Days after such
Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Credit Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding. 
 (b) Adjustment of Amortization Schedule. Any optional or mandatory prepayment of a Term Borrowing shall be applied ratably to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Term Borrowings to be made
pursuant to this Section. To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date. 
 (c)
Manner of Payment. Prior to any repayment or prepayment of any Borrowings of either Class hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings of the applicable Class to be paid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by
telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment; provided that each repayment of Borrowings of either Class shall be
applied to repay any outstanding ABR Borrowings of such Class before any other Borrowings of such Class. If the Borrower fails to make a timely selection of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid or prepaid, such payment shall be applied,
first, to pay any outstanding ABR Borrowings of the applicable Class and, second, to other Borrowings of such Class in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest
Period to be repaid first). Each payment of a Syndicated Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in such Borrowing. 
 (d)
Maintenance of Records by Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice records evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
  

 – 40 – 

 (e) Maintenance of Records by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall maintain
records in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and each Interest Period therefor, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the
Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (f) Effect of Entries. The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to paragraph (d) or (e) of this Section shall be prima
facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (g) Promissory Notes. Any Lender may
request that Loans of either Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender
and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be
represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 
 SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans. 
 (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 the requirements of this Section. 
 (b) Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrower will prepay the Loans (and/or provide cover for LC Exposure as specified in Section 2.05(k)),
and/or the Commitments shall be subject to automatic reduction, as follows: 
 (i) Casualty Events. Upon the date 180
days following the receipt by the Borrower of the proceeds of insurance, condemnation award or other compensation in respect of any Casualty Event affecting any property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (or upon such earlier date as the
Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall have determined not to repair or replace the property affected by such Casualty Event), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans (and/or provide cover for LC Exposure as specified in
Section 2.05(k)), and/or the Commitments shall be subject to automatic reduction, in an aggregate amount, if any, equal to 100% of the Net Available Proceeds of such Casualty Event not theretofore applied to the repair or replacement of 

  

 – 41 – 

 
such property, such prepayment and/or reduction to be effected in each case in the manner and to the extent specified in clause (vi) of this paragraph.
Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to limit any obligation of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to any of the Security Documents to remit to a collateral or similar account maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any
of the Security Documents the proceeds of insurance, condemnation award or other compensation received in respect of any Casualty Event. 
 (ii) Equity Issuance. Upon any Equity Issuance, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans (and/or provide cover for LC Exposure as specified in Section 2.05(k)), and/or the Commitments shall be subject to
automatic reduction, in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Proceeds thereof, such prepayment and/or reduction to be effected in each case in the manner and to the extent specified in clause (vi) of this paragraph; provided
that no such prepayment shall be required to the extent that, after giving effect thereto, the Total Leverage Ratio would be less than 3.00 to 1.0. 
 (iii) Excess Cash Flow. Not later than the date 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower ending after the date hereof, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans (and/or provide cover for
LC Exposure as specified in Section 2.05(k)), and/or the Commitments shall be subject to automatic reduction, in an aggregate amount equal to the excess of (A) 75% of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year over (B) the
aggregate amount of prepayments of Term Loans made during such fiscal year pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section, such prepayment and/or reduction to be effected in each case in the manner and to the extent specified in clause (vi) of
this paragraph; provided that no such prepayment shall be required to the extent that, after giving effect thereto, the Total Leverage Ratio would be less than 4.0 to 1.0. 
 (iv) Sale of Assets. Without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to obtain the consent of the Required Lenders pursuant to
Section 7.03 to any Disposition not otherwise permitted hereunder, in the event that the Net Available Proceeds of any Disposition (herein, the “Current Disposition”), and of all prior Dispositions as to which a prepayment has
not yet been made under this paragraph, shall exceed $1,000,000 then, no later than five Business Days prior to the occurrence of the Current Disposition, the Borrower will deliver to the Lenders a statement, certified by a Financial Officer of the
Borrower, in form and detail satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of the amount of the Net Available Proceeds of the Current Disposition and of all such prior Dispositions and will prepay the Loans (and/or provide cover for LC Exposure as
specified in Section 2.05(k)), and/or the Commitments shall be subject to automatic reduction, in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Proceeds of the Current Disposition and such prior Dispositions, such prepayment and/or
reduction to be effected in each case in the manner and to the extent specified in clause (vi) of this paragraph, 

  

 – 42 – 

 
provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to make a prepayment under this clause (iv) to the extent that

 (A) the Borrower advises the Administrative Agent at the time of the relevant Disposition that it intends to use such Net
Available Proceeds to make acquisitions permitted by Section 7.03 or Capital Expenditures permitted by Section 7.09(d), and 
 (B) such Net Available Proceeds are in fact so applied to such reinvestment within 90 days of such Disposition (it being understood that, in the event Net Available Proceeds from more than one Disposition are held by
the Borrower, or have been applied to the prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans, such Net Available Proceeds shall be deemed to be utilized in the same order in which such Dispositions occurred and, accordingly, any such Net Available Proceeds so
held or applied to the prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans for more than 90 days shall be forthwith applied to the prepayment of Loans as provided above). 
 (v) Debt Incurrence. Upon any Debt Incurrence, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans (and/or provide cover for LC Exposure as specified in Section 2.05(k)), and/or the Commitments shall be subject to
automatic reduction, in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Proceeds thereof, such prepayment and/or reduction to be effected in each case in the manner and to the extent specified in clause (vi) of this paragraph; provided
that no such prepayment shall be required to the extent that, after giving effect thereto, the Total Leverage Ratio would be less than 3.00 to 1.0. 
 (vi) Application. Prepayments and/or reductions of Commitments pursuant to this paragraph shall be applied as follows: 
 first, (A) if such prepayment and/or reduction of the Term Loan Commitments is required to be made before the Term Loan
Commitments have terminated, to reduce the aggregate amount of the Term Loan Commitments, and (B) if such prepayment and/or reduction of the Term Loan Commitments is required to be made after the Term Loan Commitments have terminated, to prepay
the Term Loans, and 
 second, after the payment in full of the Term Loans and the termination of the Term Loan
Commitments, to reduce the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments (and to the extent that, after giving effect to such reduction, the total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall,
first, prepay Swingline Loans, second, prepay 

  

 – 43 – 

 
Revolving Credit Loans and third, provide cover for LC Exposure as specified in Section 2.05(k) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess).

 (c) Waivable Mandatory Prepayment. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event Borrower is required to
make any mandatory prepayment under Section 2.10(b) above or clause (i) of Section 7.10 (each, a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Term Loans, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the date (each,
a “Required Prepayment Date”) on which the Borrower is required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment (or, in the case of a proposed Optional Junior Payment pursuant to clause (i) of Section 7.10, the date of such
proposed Optional Junior Payment), the Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Term Loan of the amount of such
Lender’s pro rata share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to the Borrower and Administrative Agent of its election to do
so on or before the first Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the first Business
Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). On the Required Prepayment Date the Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent the amount of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment,
which amount shall be applied (i) in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment payable to those Lenders that have elected not to exercise such option, to prepay the Term Loans of such Lenders (which prepayment shall
be applied to prepay the Term Loans and reduce Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with Section 2.10(b)(vi)), and (ii) to the extent of any excess, to the Borrower. 
 (d) Notices, Etc. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the relevant Swingline
Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment,
(ii) in the case of prepayment of a Syndicated ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than
12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory
prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments as contemplated by
Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Syndicated Borrowing, the Administrative
Agent shall advise the relevant Lenders of the 

  

 – 44 – 

 
contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as
provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Syndicated Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be
accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12 and shall be made in the manner specified in Section 2.09(c). 
 SECTION 2.11. Fees. 
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each
Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the earlier of the date
such Revolving Credit Commitment terminates and the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable on each Quarterly Date and on the earlier of the date the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and the
Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. 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). For purposes of computing commitment fees, the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and LC Exposure of
such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose). 
 (b) Letter of Credit Fees. The
Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for account of each Revolving Credit Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate
applicable to interest on Revolving Credit 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 Revolving Credit Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Lender a fronting fee
in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily stated and available amount of such Letter of Credit during the period from and including the Effective
Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the date on which such Letter of Credit expires or is terminated, as well as such Issuing Lender’s 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 each Quarterly Date shall be payable on the third Business Day following such Quarterly
Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and any 

  

 – 45 – 

 
such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Lender
pursuant to this paragraph 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). 
 (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 immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Lender, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of
facility fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 
 SECTION
2.12. Interest. 
 (a) ABR Loans. The Loans constituting each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall
bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (b) Eurodollar Loans. The Loans
constituting each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the
Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the
case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided above or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a)
of this Section. 
 (d) Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in
the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of a Revolving Credit ABR Loan prior to the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable
on the date of such repayment or prepayment 

  

 – 46 – 

 
and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such
Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 
 (e) Computation. All interest hereunder shall be computed on
the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate 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 or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of
the Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or 
 (b) if such Borrowing is of a particular Class of Loans, the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders of such Class that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly
reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their respective Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 
 then the
Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving
rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Syndicated Borrowing to, or the continuation of any Syndicated Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and such
Syndicated Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or converted to, a Syndicated ABR Borrowing and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Syndicated ABR Borrowing.

 SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs. 
 (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 
 (i) impose, modify or
deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for account of, or credit extended by, any 

  

 – 47 – 

 
Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any Issuing Lender; or 
 (ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar
Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Lenders of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce
the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount
or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Lender determines in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such
Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’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 such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into
consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such
Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

 (c) Certificates from Lenders. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to
compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower
shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing
Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Lender pursuant to this 

  

 – 48 – 

 
Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Lender, 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 such Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law
giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 SECTION 2.15. 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 therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any
Syndicated Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under Section 2.10(c) and is revoked in accordance herewith), or (d) the assignment as a result
of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18(b) of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, 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, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest
that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of
a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such
Interest Period, over (ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such
Lender (or an affiliate of such Lender) for Dollar deposits from other banks in the eurodollar market at the commencement of such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive
pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 SECTION 2.16. Taxes. 
 (a)
Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes;
provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this 

  

 – 49 – 

 
Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each
Lender and each Issuing Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under
this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its
own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Evidence of Payments. As
soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower 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. 
 (e) Foreign Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such
jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly
completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. 
 SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. 
 (a) Payments by the Obligors. Each
Obligor shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document (except to
the extent otherwise provided therein) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. 

  

 – 50 – 

 
Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at BNP Paribas New York Branch; swift code: BNPAUS3N; Account #:10313000103 Reference: Baldor Electric Company,
except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document and except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Lender or a Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03,
which shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment
hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such
extension. All payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) shall be made in Dollars. 
 (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, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to
pay principal 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) Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each Syndicated Borrowing of a particular Class shall be made
from the relevant Lenders, each payment of commitment fee under Section 2.11 shall be made for account of the relevant Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments of a particular Class under Section 2.08
shall be applied to the respective Commitments of such Class of the relevant Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments of such Class; (ii) each Syndicated Borrowing of any Class shall be allocated pro rata among
the relevant Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments of such Class (in the case of the making of Syndicated Loans) or their respective Loans of such Class that are to be included in such Borrowing (in the case of conversions
and continuations of Loans); (iii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the relevant Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal
amounts of the Syndicated Loans of such Class held by them; and (iv) each payment of interest on Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the relevant Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of
interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders. 
  

 – 51 – 

 (d) Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or
counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Syndicated Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of
the aggregate amount of its Syndicated Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon then due 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 Syndicated Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the
Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Syndicated Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the
provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Obligor 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 paragraph shall apply). Each
Obligor consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Obligor rights of set-off and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Obligor in the amount of such participation. 
 (e) Presumptions of Payment. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders or
an Issuing Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the
Lenders or such Issuing Lender, 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 applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the
Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. 
 (f) Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall
fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(e), 2.06(b) or 2.17(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter
received by the Administrative Agent for 

  

 – 52 – 

 
account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 
 (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental
Authority for account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to
another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and
(ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any
such designation or assignment. 
 (b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the
Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, 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 10.04), all its interests,
rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Lender and each Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment
of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of
such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be
made pursuant to Section 2.16, 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.

 ARTICLE III 
 GUARANTEE 
 SECTION 3.01. The Guarantee. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and
severally guarantee to each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on the Loans
made by the Lenders to the Borrower and all other amounts from time to time owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent by the Borrower under this Agreement and by any Obligor under any of the other Loan Documents, and all obligations of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to any Lender (or any affiliate of any Lender) in respect of any Hedging Agreement, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the
“Guaranteed Obligations”). The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby further jointly and severally agree that if the Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, the Subsidiary Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in
full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
 For
purposes hereof, it is understood that any Guaranteed Obligations to any Person arising under an agreement entered into at a time such Person (or an affiliate thereof) is party hereto as a Lender shall continue to constitute Guaranteed Obligations,
notwithstanding that such Person (or its affiliate) has ceased to be a Lender party hereto (by assigning all of its Commitments, Loans, Revolving Credit Exposure and other interests herein) at the time a claim is to be made in respect of such
Guaranteed Obligations. 
 SECTION 3.02. Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under
Section 3.01 are absolute and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred
to herein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section that the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, joint and several, under
any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain
absolute and unconditional as described above: 
 (i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Subsidiary
Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; 
  

 – 54 – 

 (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other
agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be done or omitted; 
 (iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be waived or any other
guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or 
 (iv) any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected. 
 The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that
the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or
security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. 
 SECTION 3.03. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under
this Article shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and the Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that they will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for
all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim
alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law. 
 SECTION 3.04. Subrogation. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that until the payment and satisfaction in full of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the
Lenders under this Agreement they 

  

 – 55 –

payable as provided in Article VIII (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VIII) for purposes of Section 3.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and
payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of Section 3.01. 
 SECTION 3.06. Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article constitutes an
instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Subsidiary Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to
proceed by motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint pursuant to N.Y. Civ. Prac. L&R § 3213.

Guaranteed Obligations. The payment obligation of a Subsidiary Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Subsidiary
Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.

or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 3.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount
of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated
to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

time (including filing appropriate Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and executing and delivering such assignments, security agreements and other instruments) as shall be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to create, in
favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders (and any affiliate thereof that is a party to any Hedging Agreement entered into with the Borrower), perfected security interests and Liens in substantially all of the property of such
Obligor (other than Voting Stock of any Controlled Foreign Corporation exceeding 65% of the issued and outstanding Voting Stock of such Controlled Foreign Corporation) as collateral security for its 

  

 – 74 – 

 
obligations hereunder; provided that any such security interest or Lien shall be subject to the relevant requirements of the Security Documents.

 If any Obligor shall have or acquire any real property interest, including improvements, after the Effective Date having a fair market
value of $1,000,000 or more (or shall make improvements upon any existing real property interest resulting in the fair market value of such interest together with such improvements being equal to $1,000,000 or more), then (subject, in the case of
any such interest that is a leasehold interest, to the delivery by the relevant landlord(s) of any required landlord consent) it will (or, as applicable, will cause the respective Obligor holding such real property interest to), if the
Administrative Agent elects to encumber such property, in the Administrative Agent’s sole and absolute discretion, promptly execute and deliver in favor of the Administrative Agent a mortgage, deed of trust or deed to secure debt (as
appropriate for the jurisdiction in which such respective real property is situated) pursuant to which such Obligor will create a Lien upon such real property interest (and improvements) in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the
Lenders (and any affiliate thereof that is a party to any Hedging Agreement entered into with the Borrower) as collateral security for the obligations of such Obligor under this Agreement or, as applicable, under the respective Guarantee Assumption
Agreement to which such Obligor is a party, and will deliver (or, or in case of landlords’ consents, will use its best efforts to cause the relevant landlord(s) to deliver) such opinions of counsel, landlords’ consents, surveys and title
insurance policies as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request in connection therewith. 
 (c) Acquired Companies. The
actions required by this Section 6.10, other than Post-Closing Actions, with respect to the Acquired Companies shall be completed on the Effective Date. 
 (d) Special Provisions Relating to Initial Guarantors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c), on the Effective Date, the Borrower shall cause each of the Initial
Guarantors to, promptly following the consummation of the Acquisition, merge with and into each of the Reliance Significant Subsidiaries with the Reliance Significant Subsidiaries being the respective surviving entities (the “Guarantor
Mergers”), and cause each Reliance Significant Subsidiary to duly execute and deliver a Guarantor Assumption Agreement pursuant to which each Reliance Significant Subsidiary will succeed to all obligations and liabilities of the Initial
Guarantors hereunder and under the other Loans Documents (the “Guarantor Successions”). 
 SECTION 6.11. Post-Closing
Actions; Etc.. The Borrower will complete all Post-Closing Actions within 90 days after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower will within 30 days after the Effective Date deliver to the Administrative Agent a
certificate setting forth the nature of the ownership interests of each Subsidiary identified on Part A of Schedule VI, together with all certificates or instruments representing or evidencing any

its Subsidiaries or predecessors that, in the judgment of the Required Lenders, are reasonably likely to be determined adversely to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and the amount thereof (either individually or in the aggregate) is
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (insofar as such amount is payable by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries but after deducting any portion thereof that is reasonably expected to be paid by other creditworthy Persons jointly
and severally liable therefor); 
 (n) a Change in Control shall occur; or 
 (o) the Liens created by the Security Documents shall at any time not constitute a valid and perfected Lien on the collateral intended to
be covered thereby (to the extent perfection by filing, registration, recordation or possession is required herein or therein) in favor of the Administrative Agent, free and clear of all other Liens (other than Liens permitted under
Section 7.02 or under the respective Security Documents), or, except for expiration in accordance with its terms, any of the Security Documents or the Guarantee in Article III shall for whatever reason be terminated or cease to be in full force
and effect, or the enforceability thereof shall be contested by any Obligor; 
 then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to any
Obligor described in clause (h) or (i) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower, take
either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: 

  

 – 88 – 

 
(i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and

fees and other Obligations of the Obligors accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Obligor. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

 Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. 
 The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its
capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the
Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. 
 The Administrative Agent shall
not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied
duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly
contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent
shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of
its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken 

  

 – 89 – 

 
by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative
Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to
ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or
thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items
expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender recognizes and agrees that the Joint-Lead Arrangers, Joint-Bookrunners and the Syndication Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and shall have no functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities for acting as such hereunder. 
 The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be
made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for an Obligor), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be
liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 The
Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its
duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such
sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. Each Lender by its execution and delivery of this Agreement
agrees, as contemplated by Section 4.03 of the Security Agreement, that, in the event it shall hold any Permitted Investments referred to therein, such Permitted Investments shall be held in the name and under the control of such Lender, and
such Lender shall hold such Permitted Investments as a collateral sub-agent for the Administrative Agent thereunder. Each Obligor by its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby consents to the foregoing. 
  

 – 90 – 

 The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the
Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations hereunder and (2) the Required Lenders shall perform the duties of the Administrative Agent (and all payments and communications provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be
made by or to each Lender directly) until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above in this paragraph. 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 (or retired) Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (if not
already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such
successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting
as Administrative Agent. 
 Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any
other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.02(b)
with respect to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the Loan Documents, provided that, without the
prior consent of each Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release all or substantially all of the collateral or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under any
Security Document providing for collateral security, agree to additional obligations being secured by all or substantially all of such collateral security (unless the Lien for such additional obligations shall be junior to the Lien in favor of the
other obligations secured by such Security Document, in which event the Administrative Agent may consent to such junior Lien provided that it obtains the consent of the Required Lenders thereto), alter the relative priorities of the obligations

  

 – 91 – 

 
entitled to the benefits of the Liens created under the Security Documents with respect to all or substantially all of such collateral or release all or
substantially all of the guarantors under the Security Documents from their guarantee obligations thereunder, except that no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Lien covering property
(and to release any such guarantor) that is the subject of either a disposition of property permitted hereunder or a disposition to which the Required Lenders have consented. 
 ARTICLE X

 – 92 – 

 
other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.

 SECTION 10.02. Waivers; Amendments. 
 (a) No Deemed Waivers; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights
and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any
departure by any Obligor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender
may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
 (b) Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may
be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided
that no such agreement shall 
 (i) increase any Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender,

 (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any
fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, 
 (iii) postpone the scheduled date of
payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment,
without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, 
 (iv) change Section 2.17(d) without the consent of each
Lender affected thereby, 
  

 – 93 – 

 (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage in the definition of
the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written
consent of each Lender, or 
 (vi) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their guarantee obligations under
Article III without the written consent of each Lender; and provided further that (x) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Lender or a Swingline
Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (y) that any modification or supplement of Article III shall require the consent of each
Subsidiary Guarantor. 
 Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no waiver or modification of any provision of this
Agreement that has the effect (either immediately or at some later time) of enabling the Borrower to satisfy a condition precedent to the making of a Loan of any Class shall be effective against the Lenders of such Class for purposes of the
Commitments of such Class unless the Required Lenders of such Class shall have concurred with such waiver or modification, and no waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that could reasonably be expected
to adversely affect the Lenders of any Class in a manner that does not affect all Classes equally shall be effective against the Lenders of such Class unless the Required Lenders of such Class shall have concurred with such waiver or modification.

 For purposes of this Section, the “scheduled date of payment” of any amount shall refer to the date of payment of such amount
specified in Section 2.09(a) of this Agreement, and shall not refer to a date or other event specified for the mandatory or optional prepayment of such amount.

the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder,
(iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred 

  

 – 94 – 

 
by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any
Issuing Lender or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of
Credit issued hereunder, including in connection with any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof and (iv) and all costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred in connection with any filing, registration,
recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Security Document or any other document referred to therein. 
 (b)
Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an
“Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or
asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective
obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the applicable Issuing Lender to honor
a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), any payments that the Administrative Agent is required to make under any
indemnity issued to any bank referred to in Section 4.02 of the Security Agreement to which remittances in respect of Accounts, as defined therein, are to be made, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on
or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation
or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the
extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

 (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the
Administrative Agent, an Issuing Lender or a Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Swingline Lender, as the case may be,
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage,
liability or related expense, as the case may be, was 

  

 – 95 – 

 
incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. 
 (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Obligor shall assert, and each Obligor hereby waives, any
claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
 (e) Payments.
All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor. 
 SECTION 10.04.
Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) Assignments Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Obligor may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any
attempted assignment or transfer by any Obligor without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors
and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that 
 (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate (or Approved Fund) of a Lender, each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a
Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure, each Issuing Lender and each Swingline Lender) must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld), 
 (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate (or Approved Fund) of a Lender or an
assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment(s), the amount of the Commitment(s) of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and 

  

 – 96 – 

 
Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 in the case or the Revolving Credit
Commitment and $1,000,000 in the case of a Term Loan, unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, 
 (iii) 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, 
 (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a
processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and 
 (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; 
 provided further that any consent of the Borrower otherwise required under this
paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the
assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement,
such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not
comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose vehicle (an
“SPV”) of such Granting Lender, identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such
Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.01, provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan, (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise
such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) the Borrower may bring any proceeding against either the Granting Lender or
the SPV in order to enforce any rights of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the relevant Commitment of the 

  

 – 97 – 

 
Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for
any payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable, for so long as, and to the extent, the related Granting Lender makes such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall
survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it will not institute against, or join any other
person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof arising out of any claim against such SPV
under this Agreement. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, any SPV may with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing
fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support (if any) with respect
to commercial paper issued by such SPV to fund such Loans and such SPV may disclose, on a confidential basis, confidential information with respect to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a
surety, guarantee or credit liquidity enhancement to such SPV. This paragraph may not be amended without the consent of any SPV at the time holding Loans under this Agreement. 
 (c) Maintenance of Register by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount 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 Lenders and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower, any Issuing Lender and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (d)
Effectiveness of Assignments. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a
Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment
and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
  

 – 98 – 

 (e) Participations. Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
any Issuing Lender or any Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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 Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such
Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the
sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; 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 last paragraph of Article IX or in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to
paragraph (f) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant
to paragraph (b) of this Section. 
 (f) Limitations on Rights of Participants. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive
any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with
the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and
such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it were a Lender. 
 (g) Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this
Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee
for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (h) No Assignments to the Obligors or Affiliates. Anything in this Section to the contrary
notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan or LC Exposure held by it hereunder to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of each Lender. 
  

 – 99 – 

 SECTION 10.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the
Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the making of any Loans 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 Issuing Lender 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 Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, 3.03 and 10.03 and
Article IX 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 or any provision hereof. 
 SECTION 10.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may
be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter
agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract between and among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written,
relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 5.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts
hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 10.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 SECTION 10.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender 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 indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to
or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any of and all the 

  

 – 100 – 

 
obligations of any Obligor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any
demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
 SECTION 10.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. 
 (a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 
 (b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each Obligor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting
in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of
any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such
Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this
Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Obligor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

 (c) Waiver of Venue. Each Obligor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and
effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the
parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (d) Service of Process. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in
Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
 SECTION 10.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING 

  

 – 101 – 

 
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER
THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND
(B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 SECTION 10.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of
this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
 SECTION 10.12.
Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. 
 (a) Treatment of Certain Information. The Borrower acknowledges that from
time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or provided to the Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by any Lender or by one or more subsidiaries or
affiliates of such Lender and the Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender to share any information delivered to such Lender by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with the decision of such Lender to enter
into this Agreement, to any such subsidiary or affiliate, it being understood that any such subsidiary or affiliate receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section as if it were a Lender hereunder.
Such authorization shall survive the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 
 (b) Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the
Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the
Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent
required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit,

assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement,

breach of this paragraph or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than an Obligor. For the purposes of this paragraph, “Information”
means all information received from any Obligor relating to any Obligor or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure
by an Obligor; provided that, in the case of information received from an Obligor after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of
Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information. 
 SECTION 10.13. Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Obligors that pursuant to the requirements of
the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Obligors, which information includes the name
