 SECTION 1.04 Accounting Terms; GAAP. Except as expressly provided for herein,
all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided that, if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any
provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the Effective Date in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Majority Lenders
request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in
effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an
accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made (i) without giving effect to any election under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards
Codification 825 (or any other Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of the Borrower or any Subsidiary at “fair value”, as defined therein, and (ii) without
giving effect to any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting
Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof. 

SECTION 1.05 Interest Rates; Benchmark Notification. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars may be derived from an
interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 2.12(b) provides a mechanism for
determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to any
interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or
replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or
unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including
any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate
used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of
any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or
component thereof) provided by any such information source or service. 
 SECTION 1.06 Divisions. For all purposes under the
Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right,
obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been
organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time. 

  
 53 

 SECTION 1.07 Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise specified herein, the
amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the amount of such Letter of Credit available to be drawn at such time; provided that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any letter of credit
agreement or application related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the available amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all
such increases, whether or not such maximum amount is available to be drawn at such time. 
 SECTION 1.08 Rating Agency Changes.
If the rating system of any Rating Agency shall change, or if any Rating Agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend (w) the definitions of
“Applicable Rate,” “Index Debt Rating,” “Interim Investment Grade Period” and/or “Investment Grade Rating,” (x) this Section 1.08, (y) Schedule 1.01B and/or (z) any other
provision of this Agreement pertaining to Index Debt Ratings to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such Rating Agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the applicable Index Debt Rating shall
be deemed to be the Index Debt Rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation. 
 SECTION 1.09 Limited Condition
Transaction. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, when (a) calculating any applicable ratio or basket (including any basket based on ACNTA, Total Net Indebtedness, Consolidated EBITDAX, PV-9 or Total PDP PV-10) in connection with the incurrence of Indebtedness, the creation of Liens, the making of any Disposition, the making of an Investment, the making of a
Restricted Payment, the designation of a Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary or Unrestricted Subsidiary or the repayment of Indebtedness, (b) determining the accuracy of any representation or warranty, (c) determining whether any Default
or Event of Default (other than a Specified Event of Default) has occurred, is continuing or would result from any action, or (d) determining compliance with any other condition to any action or transaction, in each case of clauses
(a) through (d) in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, the date of determination of such ratio or basket, the accuracy of such representation or warranty (but taking into account any earlier date specified therein),
whether any Default or Event of Default (other than a Specified Event of Default to the extent expressly set forth herein to the contrary) has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, or the satisfaction of any other condition shall, at
the election of the Borrower, which election may be revoked by the Borrower at any time prior to the consummation of the Limited Condition Transaction (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition
Transaction, an “LCT Election”), be deemed to be (i) the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or, in case of a takeover offer, the date on which such offer is announced or
(ii) the date an irrevocable notice for prepayment or redemption or declaration of a Restricted Payment (as applicable) is delivered, as applicable (the “LCT Test Date”); provided that the consummation of any Limited
Condition Transaction constituting a Disposition shall occur not more than sixty (60) days after the execution of the definitive agreement with respect thereto. If on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction
and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) such ratios, amounts, representations and warranties, absence of defaults, satisfaction of conditions
and other provisions are calculated as if such Limited Condition Transaction or other transactions had occurred at the beginning of the applicable Fiscal Quarter ending prior to the LCT Test Date, the Borrower could have taken such action on the
relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with the applicable ratios, amounts or other provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with, unless a Specified Event of Default shall be continuing on the date such Limited Condition
Transaction is consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if any of such ratios, amounts, representations and warranties, absence of defaults, satisfaction of conditions or other provisions 

  
 54 

 
are exceeded or breached as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in ACNTA, Total Net Indebtedness, Consolidated EBITDAX,
PV-9 or Total PDP PV-10), a change in facts and circumstances or other provisions at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Transaction, such
ratios, representations and warranties, absence of defaults, satisfaction of conditions precedent and other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded, breached, or otherwise failed as a result of such fluctuations or changed circumstances
solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction and any related transactions is permitted hereunder and (ii) such ratios and compliance with such conditions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such
Limited Condition Transaction (other than the occurrence of a Specified Event of Default). If the Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket
availability on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated, the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or
expires or the date on which the irrevocable notice has expired, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction (as applicable), any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition
Transaction (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated. 
 ARTICLE II 

The Credits 

SECTION 2.01 Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (a) each Lender (severally and not jointly)
agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower in Dollars from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result (after giving effect to any application of proceeds of such Borrowing pursuant to
Section 2.08(a)) in (i) the amount of such Lender’s Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment or (ii) the Total Credit Exposure exceeding the Credit Limit. Within the foregoing limits and
subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Loans. 
 SECTION 2.02 Loans and
Borrowings. 
 (a) Each Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Type
made by the applicable Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the
Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. Any Swingline Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.21. 
 (b) Subject to Section 2.12, each Revolving Borrowing shall be
comprised entirely of ABR Loans, Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign
branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan (and in the case of an Affiliate, the provisions of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 shall apply to such Affiliate to the same extent as to such
Lender); provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Term Benchmark Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an
integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000; provided that an
ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Aggregate Commitments or that 

  
 55 

 
is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.04(e). Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral
multiple of $100,000 and not less than $100,000; provided that a Swingline Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Aggregate Commitments or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an
LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.04(e). Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of twelve (12) Term
Benchmark Borrowings outstanding. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to
request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date. 

SECTION 2.03 Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request
by telephone, facsimile transmission or electronic mail (a) in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the date
of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and, in the case of a telephonic
Borrowing Request, shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile transmission or electronic mail to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall
specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the aggregate principal
amount of the requested Borrowing; 
 (ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing, a Term Benchmark Borrowing or an RFR Loan; 

(iv) in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period
contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and 
 (v) the amount of the then effective Credit
Limit, the current Total Credit Exposure (without regard to the requested Borrowing) and the pro forma Total Credit Exposure (giving effect to the requested Borrowing); and 

(vi) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the
requirements of Section 2.05, or, in the case of an ABR Borrowing requested to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.04(e), the identity of the Issuing Bank that
has made such LC Disbursement. 
 If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no
Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Term Benchmark Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance
with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. 

  
 56 

 SECTION 2.04 Letters of Credit. 

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit
denominated in Dollars as the applicant thereof for the support of its or its Restricted Subsidiaries’ obligations, in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability
Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower
with, any Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue,
any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (i) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any
Sanctions or (ii) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement. The Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, in connection with any Letter of Credit issued for the support of any
Restricted Subsidiary’s obligations as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph, the Borrower will be fully responsible for the reimbursement of LC Disbursements in accordance with the terms hereof, the payment of interest thereon and
the payment of fees due under Section 2.10(b) to the same extent as if it were the sole account party in respect of such Letter of Credit (the Borrower hereby irrevocably waiving any defenses that might otherwise be
available to it as a guarantor or surety of the obligations of such a Restricted Subsidiary that is an account party in respect of any such Letter of Credit). 

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the
amendment, renewal (other than an automatic renewal permitted pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.04) or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or transmit by
facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank) to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, at least two
(2) Business Days (or such shorter period of time as the applicable Issuing Bank may agree in its sole discretion) prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, a notice: 

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

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

(iii) specifying the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of
this Section 2.04); 
 (iv) specifying the amount of such Letter of Credit; and 

(v) specifying the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare,
amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. 
 If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application
on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit (other than an Existing Letter of Credit). A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended by an Issuing Bank 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 portion of the Total LC Exposure
attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank will not, unless such Issuing Bank shall so agree in its sole discretion, exceed the LC Issuance Limit of such Issuing Bank, (ii) the Total LC Exposure will not exceed $500,000,000,
(iii) no Lender’s Credit Exposure will exceed its Commitment and (iv) the Total Credit Exposure will not exceed the Credit Limit. 

  
 57 

 (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire (or be subject to termination
by notice from the applicable Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereof) at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) unless a later date is otherwise agreed to in writing by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent,
the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the
Maturity Date; provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (so long as no such
renewal violates the foregoing clause (ii)). 
 (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit
(or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such
Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender
hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the
Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire
participations pursuant to this 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, the existence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency, or reduction or termination of the Aggregate Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(e) Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse
such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent in Dollars an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received
notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice; provided that the Borrower may, at its election and subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with
Section 2.02 or 2.21 that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount of such LC Disbursement and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such
payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due
from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the
Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the
Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this
paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank
as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not
constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 

  
 58 

 (f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC
Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.04 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 this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by any Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that
does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason
of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission,
interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical
terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed
to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s
failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the
part of any Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof,
the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon
such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such
Letter of Credit. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents regarding Letters of Credit, including this Section 2.04, shall survive after the Maturity Date and termination of this
Agreement for so long as any LC Exposure exists. 
 (g) Disbursement Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, within the time period
stipulated by the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit (or if no such time period is so stipulated, promptly), examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. After such examination, each Issuing
Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone, facsimile transmission or electronic mail (and, in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed by facsimile or electronic mail) of such demand for payment and
whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders
with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (h) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank 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 a rate per annum 

  
 59 

 
equal to (i) for any day prior to the date on which such payment by the Borrower is due in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section, the Federal Funds Effective Rate and
(ii) thereafter, the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans plus 2%. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of
payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.04 to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

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

(i) Any Issuing Bank may be terminated at any time upon not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice by
the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such termination of an Issuing Bank. After the termination of an Issuing Bank hereunder, such Issuing Bank shall remain a party
hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such termination, but shall not be required to amend, renew or
extend any such Letter of Credit or to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 (ii) Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any
time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such
replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.10(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement,
(i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in
the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such successor in its capacity as an Issuing Bank. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and
shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to amend, renew or extend any such
Letter of Credit or to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 (iii) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor
Issuing Bank, any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Issuing Bank shall be replaced in
accordance with Section 2.04(i)(ii) above. 
 (j) Cash Collateralization. If the Borrower is required to
deposit cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.09 or 7.02, it will establish on or prior to such date, and thereafter maintain so long as any Letter of Credit is outstanding or any amount is payable to any Issuing
Bank or the Lenders in respect of any Letter of Credit, a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the “LC Collateral Account”) at the Administrative Agent’s office at the
address specified pursuant to Section 9.01, in the name of the Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, and in which the Borrower
shall have no interest. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, a security interest in all of the Borrower’s right, title and
interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the LC Collateral Account, to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Secured Obligations (such funds, the “Cash Collateral”). The
Administrative Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit of JPMorgan having a maturity not exceeding 30 days. Moneys 

  
 60 

 
in the LC Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements made by the Issuing Banks for which they have not been reimbursed
and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the Total LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of
Lenders with LC Exposures representing greater than 50% of the Total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of
Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash
collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.09, such amount shall be returned to the Borrower to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Total Credit Exposure would not exceed the Credit Limit and no Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The Administrative Agent agrees that when all Secured Obligations have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit have expired or been terminated, the Administrative Agent will deliver all
remaining funds in the LC Collateral Account to the Borrower (or such other Person as is entitled thereto under applicable Requirements of Law). If the Administrative Agent determines that any Person other than the Borrower is entitled to such
remaining funds, the Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to give the Borrower notice of such determination in advance of delivering such funds to any other Person, but the Administrative Agent shall have no liability for the failure to
deliver such notice. 
 (k) Designation of Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Borrower may, by notice to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, designate as additional Issuing Banks one or more Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Lender of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by
an agreement (an “Issuing Bank Agreement”), which shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, shall set forth the LC Issuance Limit of such Lender and shall be executed by such Lender,
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, from and after the effective date of such Issuing Bank Agreement, (i) such Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and
(ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such Lender in its capacity as an Issuing Bank. 

(l) Qualifying Acquired Letters of Credit. On each Acquisition Closing Date, each applicable Qualifying Acquired Letter of Credit shall
be deemed to have been issued as a Letter of Credit under this Agreement by the applicable Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have granted to each of the Lenders, and each Lender shall
be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have acquired from such Issuing Bank, a participation (on the terms specified in this Section 2.04) in such Qualifying Acquired Letter of Credit equal to such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Qualifying Acquired Letters of Credit pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Aggregate Commitments, and that each payment by a Lender in respect of such participations shall be made without any
offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 
 (m) Issuing Bank Agreements. Unless otherwise requested by the
Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) promptly following the end of each calendar month, the aggregate amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding at the end of such month,
(ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank 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 Letter 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), it being understood that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any
issuance, renewal, extension or 

  
 61 

 
amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that it is then permitted under this
Agreement, (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit, the date of such payment under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such payment, (iv) on any Business Day on which the
Borrower fails to reimburse any payment under any Letter of Credit required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such payment and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as
the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. 
 (n) Letters of Credit Issued for Account of Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that
a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder supports any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, or states that a Subsidiary is the “account party,” “applicant,” “customer,” “instructing
party,” or the like of or for such Letter of Credit, and without derogating from any rights of the applicable Issuing Bank (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of
Credit, the Borrower (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for such Letter of Credit (including to reimburse any and all drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for
the account of the Borrower and (ii) irrevocably waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower
hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries. 

SECTION 2.05 Funding of Borrowings. 

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds
by 2:00 p.m., 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 2.21. Except in respect of the provisions of this Agreement covering the reimbursement of Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly remitting the amounts
so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in
Section 2.04(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank. 
 (b) Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing (or, in the case of any Borrowing of ABR Loans, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender
will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this
Section 2.05 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the
Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made
available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for
the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent,
then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to
the Administrative Agent. 

  
 62 

 SECTION 2.06 Interest Elections. 

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Term Benchmark
Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing,
may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders
holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 2.06 shall not apply to Swingline
Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent of such election by telephone, facsimile transmission or electronic mail by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type
resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile transmission or electronic mail to the
Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by the Borrower. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section 2.06 shall not be construed to permit the Borrower to elect an Interest Period
for Term Benchmark Loans that does not comply with Section 2.02(d). 
 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest
Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i)
the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to
be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 

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

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing, a Term Benchmark Borrowing or an RFR Loan; and 

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect
to such election, which Interest Period shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 
 If any such Interest
Election Request requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 

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

  
 63 

 (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a
Term Benchmark Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding
any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, (i) no
outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Term Benchmark Borrowing and RFR Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable
thereto. 
 SECTION 2.07 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. 

(a) Scheduled Termination of Commitments. Unless previously terminated, the Aggregate Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

 (b) Voluntary Termination and Reduction of Commitments. 

(i) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Aggregate Commitments; provided that
(i) each reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $10,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent
prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.09, the Total Credit Exposure would exceed the Aggregate Commitments. 

(ii) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments under
paragraph (b) of this Section 2.07 at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following
receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of
termination of the Aggregate Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or other transactions specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the
Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Aggregate
Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Aggregate Commitments. 
 (c) Automatic Reduction
of Aggregate Commitments Upon Aggregate Commitments Exceeding Borrowing Base. If, as a result of any Scheduled Redetermination, any Interim Redetermination, any reduction in the Borrowing Base pursuant to any Borrowing Base Adjustment
Provision, any election by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20(f), or any reimposition of the Borrowing Base as a result of the termination of an Interim Investment Grade Period, the Aggregate Commitments exceed the
Borrowing Base, the Aggregate Commitments shall be immediately and permanently reduced such that the Aggregate Commitments shall equal the reduced Borrowing Base, such reduction to made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective
Commitments. 
 SECTION 2.08 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, the then unpaid
principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date and (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal 

  
 64 

 
amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the fifth Business Day after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Loan is made,
the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding and the proceeds of any such Revolving Loan shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to repay any Swingline Loans outstanding. 

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

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the
Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum
received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made
in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.08 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein;
provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the Obligations. 

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to
such Lender a Note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to
Section 9.04) be represented by one or more 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 2.09 Prepayment of Loans. 

(a) Voluntary Prepayments. 

(i) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to
prior notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.09(a)(ii). 
 (ii) The Borrower shall
notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender) by telephonic notice (promptly confirmed by hand delivery, facsimile transmission or electronic mail of such request) of any prepayment under
this Section 2.09(a), (i) in the case of prepayment of a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the
date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment, or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 1:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of
prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Aggregate Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked
in accordance with Section 2.07. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing
shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. 

  
 65 

 (b) Mandatory Prepayments upon Commitment Terminations and Reductions. If, after
giving effect to any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments pursuant to Section 2.07(a), (b) or (c), the Total Credit Exposure exceeds the Aggregate Commitments (as reduced), then (A) the
Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans and/or Swingline Loans on the date of such termination or reduction in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and (B) if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Revolving Loans and
Swingline Loans as a result of LC Exposure, the Borrower shall cash collateralize such remaining excess as provided in Section 2.04(j). The Borrower shall be obligated to make such prepayment and/or deposit of such cash
collateral on the date of the effectiveness of such termination or reduction. 
 (c) Mandatory Prepayments upon Redeterminations, Title
Related Adjustments, Etc. If, after giving effect to any redetermination of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.20(c) or adjustment to the amount of the Borrowing Base in accordance with
Section 5.11(b), a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, then, after receiving notice of such Borrowing Base Deficiency from the Administrative Agent by means of (x) a New Borrowing Base Notice or (y) written notice
of adjustment pursuant to Section 5.11(b) (such date of receipt of notice, the “Deficiency Notification Date”), the Borrower shall, within ten (10) days of the Deficiency Notification Date, inform the
Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s election to: 
 (i) within thirty (30) days of the date such election is
made, prepay the Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency (as such Borrowing Base Deficiency may be reduced as a result of any other actions taken pursuant to this Section 2.09); 

(ii) prepay the Loans in six (6) equal monthly installments, commencing on the thirtieth (30th) day following the Deficiency Notification Date, with each payment being equal to 1/6th of the aggregate principal amount of such
Borrowing Base Deficiency (as such Borrowing Base Deficiency may be reduced during such period as a result of a Borrowing Base redetermination herein or any other actions taken pursuant to this Section 2.09); 

(iii) within thirty (30) days of the date such election is made, provide additional Collateral in the form of additional
Oil and Gas Properties of Loan Parties not evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report or other Collateral reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent having a Borrowing Base Value (as proposed by the Administrative Agent and
approved by the Required Lenders) sufficient, after giving effect to any other actions taken pursuant to this Section 2.09, to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency; or 

(iv) undertake a combination of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above; 

provided, however, that, notwithstanding the options set forth above, in all cases, the Borrowing Base Deficiency must be eliminated on
or prior to the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date of termination of the Aggregate Commitments. If, because of LC Exposure, a Borrowing Base Deficiency remains after prepaying all of the Loans, the Borrower shall cash collateralize such
remaining Borrowing Base Deficiency as provided in Section 2.04(j). 
 (d) Mandatory Prepayments upon Other
Adjustments of the Borrowing Base. Upon any adjustments to the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.20(e), if the Total Credit Exposure exceeds the Borrowing Base as adjusted, then the Borrower shall (A) prepay the
Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and (B) if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Loans as a result of LC Exposure, pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders an amount equal to such excess to
be 

  
 66 

 
held as cash collateral as provided in Section 2.04(j). The Borrower shall be obligated to make such prepayment and/or deposit of such cash collateral on the second
Business Day succeeding the date of the applicable Borrowing Base Property Disposition, Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind or incurrence of Indebtedness; provided, however, that in all cases, the Borrowing Base Deficiency must be eliminated on or
prior to the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date of termination of the Aggregate Commitments. 
 (e) Mandatory Prepayments upon
Borrower’s Election of Reduced Borrowing Base. If as a result of any election by the Borrower to reduce the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.20(f), the Total Credit Exposure exceeds the Borrowing
Base as reduced, the Borrower shall (A) prepay the Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and (B) if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Loans as a result of LC Exposure, pay to the Administrative Agent on
behalf of the Lenders an amount equal to such excess to be held as cash collateral as provided in Section 2.04(j). The Borrower shall be obligated to make such prepayment and/or deposit of such cash collateral on the date
on which the Borrower provides written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of its election of a lesser Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.20(f); provided, however, that in all cases, the Borrowing
Base Deficiency must be eliminated on or prior to the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date of termination of the Aggregate Commitments. 

(f) Mandatory Prepayments with Excess Cash Amounts. 

(i) If, at the end of the last Business Day of any week, the aggregate amount of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand
of the Loan Parties minus Excluded Cash at the end of such Business Day exceeds the Specified Cap (the amount of such excess over the Specified Cap for such Business Day, the “Excess Cash Amount”), then the Borrower shall prepay the
Loans on the fifth (5th) succeeding Business Day in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Excess Cash Amount, and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Loans then outstanding. 

(ii) If any Anticipated Transfer is not made within the relevant five (5) Business Day period referred to in the
parenthetical to clause (a) of the definition of “Excluded Cash” (such period, the “Anticipated Transfer Period”), (A) the cash and/or cash equivalents associated with such Anticipated Transfer shall be
disqualified as Excluded Cash, (B) the Excess Cash Amount shall be recalculated under clause (i) of this paragraph (f), giving effect to such disqualified Excluded Cash and (C) if, as a result of such
recalculation, the Excess Cash Amount has increased from the prior calculation thereof, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such increase on the first Business Day after the end of the Anticipated Transfer
Period. 
 (iii) Any prepayment of Loans made pursuant to this paragraph (f) shall be applied first to any
outstanding ABR Loans to the full extent thereof, second to any outstanding RFR Loans to the full extent thereof and third to any outstanding Term Benchmark Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments
required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14. 
 (g) Application of Prepayments. Each
prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. 
 (h) Interest and Break Funding
Payments to Accompany Prepayments. Prepayments shall be accompanied by (i) accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.11 and (ii) break funding payments pursuant to
Section 2.14. 

  
 67 

 (i) Interim Investment Grade Period Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, if, at any time after the Effective Date, the Borrower commences an Interim Investment Grade Period, then at all times during such Interim Investment Grade Period, the provisions of Section 2.09(c),
(d) and (e) will be deemed to be inapplicable and shall be disregarded for all purposes during such Interim Investment Grade Period. 

SECTION 2.10 Fees. 

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the
Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Unused Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date but excluding the date on which the Aggregate Commitments terminate. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in
arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Aggregate Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that any commitment fees
accruing after the date on which the Aggregate Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the
first day but excluding the last day). 
 (b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender
in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans on the
average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such
Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, which
shall accrue at a rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the Total LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the
period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank,
as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees and commissions with respect to the issuance, amendment, cancellation, negotiation, transfer, presentment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.
Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third (3rd) Business Day following
such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Aggregate Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the
Aggregate Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (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) 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) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in
immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be
refundable under any circumstances. 

  
 68 

 SECTION 2.11 Interest. 

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable
Rate. 
 (b) The Loans comprising each Term Benchmark Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for the Interest Period
in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (c) Each RFR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted
Daily Simple RFR plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
Default, the Majority Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Majority Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 9.02 requiring the consent of
“each Lender directly affected thereby” for reductions in interest rates), declare that (i) the principal amount of all Loans shall bear interest at 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loans as provided in the preceding
paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other overdue amount outstanding hereunder, such amount shall accrue interest at 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, during the existence of any Specified Event
of Default, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be applicable to all Loans and other amounts outstanding hereunder automatically without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any
Lender. 
 (e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of
the Aggregate Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a
prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion
of any Term Benchmark Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(f) 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). All interest hereunder on any Loan shall be computed on a daily basis based upon the outstanding principal amount of such Loan as of the applicable date of determination. The applicable Alternate
Base Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Term SOFR Rate, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR or Daily Simple SOFR shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

SECTION 2.12 Alternate Rate of Interest. 

(a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this
Section 2.12, if: 
 (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive and binding absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR Rate
(including, without limitation, because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable
Adjusted Daily Simple RFR or Daily Simple SOFR for an RFR Loan; or

 (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders that
(A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing that the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for the applicable Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining
their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period, or (B) at any time, the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple RFR for an RFR Loan will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans
included in such Borrowing; 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders through any Electronic System as
provided in Section 9.01 as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with
respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.06 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of
Section 2.03, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark
Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for (1) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is not also the subject of
Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above or (2) an ABR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR also is the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above. Furthermore, if any
Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.12(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such
Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower
delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.06 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on
the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted
Daily Simple RFR is not also the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR also is the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or
(ii) above, on such day, and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute an ABR Loan. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark
Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of
“Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark
settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the
definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00
p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan
Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders. 

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

  
 70 

 (d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of
(i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of
a Benchmark pursuant to clause (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any
Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.12, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event,
circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.12 or in any related definitions. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the
implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes
such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing
that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark
(including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the
definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 

(f) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request
for a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing and any conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have
converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (i) with respect to any Term Benchmark Borrowing, an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or
(ii) an ABR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the
component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the
Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to
this Section 2.12, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative
Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition
Event, on such day and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute an ABR Loan.

 SECTION 2.13 Increased Costs. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

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

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

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in
clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits,
reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such
other Recipient of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder,
whether of principal, interest or otherwise, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other
Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines
in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such
Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such
Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such
Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank
or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.13, setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of such amount or amounts, shall be delivered
to the Borrower and shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of such amount or amounts. Any Lender’s determination of any such amount or amounts shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) and substantially
consistent with similarly situated customers of such Lender under agreements having provisions similar to Section 2.13(a) or 2.13(b), as applicable, after consideration of such factors as such Lender then reasonably
determines to be relevant. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof. 

  
 72 

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

SECTION 2.14 Break Funding Payments. 

(a) With respect to Term Benchmark Loans, in the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the
last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.09), (ii) the conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on
the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be
revoked under Section 2.09 and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (iv) the assignment of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the
Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by any Lender affected by any such event, compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable
to such event. 
 (b) If any Lender elects to request compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Lender
shall deliver to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the amount of such compensation and the basis for such compensation (such certificate to be conclusive absent manifest error). The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on
any such certificate within 15 days after receipt of such demand. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Section 2.14 will not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 2.15 shall govern. 

SECTION 2.15 Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document
shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Requirements of Law. If any applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the
deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been
made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or
withholding been made. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes. 

  
 73 

 (c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any
Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.15, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing
such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

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

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand
therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan
Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes
attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or
legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby
authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the
Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e). 
 (f) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any
Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Section 2.15(f)(ii)(A), 2.15(f)(ii)(B) and 2.15(f)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any
material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

  
 74 

 (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the
Borrower is a U.S. Person: 
 (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax; 

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the
benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and
(y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as
applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

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

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS
Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign
Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of each such direct and
indirect partner; 
 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with
such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

  
 75 

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

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

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.15 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15), it shall pay to the
indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect
to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the
relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified
party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than
the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had
never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.15 shall survive the resignation or
replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

(i) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.15, the term “Lender” includes each Issuing Bank
and the term “applicable Requirements of Law” includes FATCA. 

  
 76 

 SECTION 2.16 Payments Generally; Allocations of Proceeds; Pro Rata Treatment;
Sharing of Set-offs. 
 (a) Except as provided in Section 2.04(e), the
Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or
otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion
of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 10 South Dearborn Street,
Chicago, Illinois 60603, except payments to be made directly to any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and
9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If
any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period
of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. 
 (b) Subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent
then in effect), any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by
the Borrower) or (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.09) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the
Majority Lenders so direct, shall be applied as follows: 
 (i) first, pro rata to pay that portion of the Secured
Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expense reimbursements and other amounts payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such and each Issuing Bank in its capacity as such; 

(ii) second, pro rata to pay that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expense
reimbursements and other amounts payable (other than principal and interest) to the Lenders; 
 (iii) third, pro rata
to pay accrued interest on the Loans; 
 (iv) fourth, pro rata to the payment or prepayment of (i) principal of
the Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements, (ii) any Secured Swap Obligations then owing and (iii) any Banking Services Obligations then owing; 

(v) fifth, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to 103% of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all
outstanding Letters of Credit, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations; and 
 (vi) sixth, to the payment
of any other Secured Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party. 

  
 77 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by
the Borrower, or unless a Default is in existence, none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Term Benchmark Loan, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any
such Term Benchmark Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans and, in any event, the Borrower shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with
Section 2.14. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations. To the
extent the Administrative Agent receives payments not constituting proceeds of Collateral and not covered by clauses (b)(i)(A) or (B), such proceeds shall be applied according to the foregoing priority of payments
waterfall; provided, that such proceeds shall be applied to repay all Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements or cash collateralize all Letter of Credit related amounts under the fourth item above, whether or not secured by the
Collateral. 
 (c) The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge any Deposit Account of the Borrower
maintained with the Administrative Agent for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder. 
 (d) If any Lender
shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements (if applicable) or
Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements (if applicable) and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion
received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements (if applicable) 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 Loans and participations in LC Disbursements (if
applicable)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 the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment
obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to
which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Requirements of Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing
arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such
participation. 
 (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is
due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank 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 the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the
applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such
amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation.

 (f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to
Section 2.04(d) or (e), 2.05(b), 2.16(e), 2.21 or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts
thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all
such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account over which the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive control as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of
such Lender under any such Section (in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion). 

SECTION 2.17 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes
or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, 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 Sections 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The
Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any
Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (iv) any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender or (v) the Person serving as the Administrative Agent has received a written notice of removal in its capacity as Administrative Agent from the Majority Lenders or the Borrower pursuant to
Article VIII, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to
the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.13 or 2.15) and obligations under the Loan Documents
to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) and such Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption in connection therewith (provided that the
failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption shall not render such assignment invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register), provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (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 2.13 or
payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, 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. An assignment and delegation required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected
pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee, and the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not be a party thereto (it being understood and agreed that such Lender
shall not be deemed to make the representations and warranties in such Assignment and Assumption if such Lender has not executed such Assignment and Assumption).

 SECTION 2.18 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement
to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a) commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 2.10(a); 
 (b) the Commitment and Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in
determining whether the Majority Lenders or Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided,
that, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02, this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the
consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby; 
 (c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such
Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure (other than
(A) the portion of such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term and (B) any portion thereof with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by
Section 2.04(d) or (e)) of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated (effective as of the date such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the non-Defaulting Lenders in
accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (for the purposes of such reallocation, such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment shall be disregarded in determining the non-Defaulting Lenders’
respective Applicable Percentages), but only to the extent that (X) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure does not exceed the total of
all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments, (Y) after giving effect to any such reallocation, no non-Defaulting Lender’s Credit Exposure shall exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and (Z) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time; 

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected,
the Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days following written notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize, for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Banks, the
Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.04(j) for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is outstanding; 
 (iii)
if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any participation fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant
to Section 2.10(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; 

(iv) if any portion of the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated
pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages after giving effect to such reallocation; and 

  
 80 

 (v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is
neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all participation fees
payable under Section 2.10(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Banks, ratably based on the portion of such LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit
issued by each such Issuing Bank, until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above; and 

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank
shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.18(c), and Swingline Exposure related to any such newly made Swingline Loan and
participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.18(c)(i) (and such
Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 
 If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In
Action with respect to a Lender Parent shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) any Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its
obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of
Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such
Lender hereunder. 
 In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agree in writing
that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposures of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s
Commitment, and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance
with its Applicable Percentage. 
 The rights and remedies against, and with respect to, a Defaulting Lender under this
Section 2.18 are in addition to, and cumulative and not in limitation of, all other rights and remedies that the Administrative Agent and each Lender, each Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Loan Party may at any time
have against, or with respect to, such Defaulting Lender. 
 SECTION 2.19 Increase in Aggregate Commitments. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may, from time to time (including in connection with any
redetermination of the Borrowing Base during any Borrowing Base Period), cause an increase in the Aggregate Commitments (any such increase, an “Incremental Increase”) by permitting one or more existing Lenders to increase their
respective Commitments (each, an “Increasing Lender”) and/or by causing a Person that at such time is not a Lender to become a Lender (an “Additional Lender”). No Lender’s Commitment shall be increased without
such Lender’s prior written consent (which consent may be given or withheld in such Lender’s sole and absolute discretion). No consent of any Lender (other than the Lenders participating in the Incremental Increase) shall be required for
any Incremental Increase. 

  
 81 

 (b) Any Incremental Increase shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have been given written notice of such Incremental Increase; 

(ii) if such Incremental Increase occurs during a Borrowing Base Period, the Borrower shall have delivered to the
Administrative Agent a Secured Debt Cap Certificate certifying as to the Secured Debt Cap on the proposed date of effectiveness of such Incremental Increase; 

(iii) such Incremental Increase shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $25,000,000
unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; 
 (iv) after giving effect to such Incremental Increase, the Aggregate
Commitments shall not exceed (A) during any Borrowing Base Period, the lesser of (1) the Secured Debt Cap at such time and (2) the Borrowing Base then in effect and (B) during any Interim Investment Grade Period, the Maximum
Credit Amount; 
 (v) no Additional Lender shall be added as a party hereto without the written consent of the Administrative
Agent and each Issuing Bank (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), 
 (vi) the Borrower shall have paid to the
Administrative Agent, for payment to any Increasing Lender or Additional Lender, as applicable, any fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Lender or Lenders; 

(vii) such Incremental Increase shall be on the exact same terms and pursuant to the exact same documentation applicable to
this Agreement (other than with respect to any arrangement, structuring, upfront or other fees or discounts payable in connection with such Incremental Increase) (provided that the Applicable Rate may be increased to be consistent with that
for such Incremental Increase); 
 (viii) on the proposed date of the effectiveness of such Incremental Increase, the
conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by an
Authorized Officer on the behalf of the Borrower; 
 (ix) the Administrative Agent shall have received such documents and
opinions consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date as to the organizational power and authority of the Borrower to borrow hereunder after giving effect to such Incremental Increase as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request; and

 (x) each Increasing Lender or Additional Lender shall execute and deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
customary documentation (any such documentation, an “Incremental Agreement”) implementing such Incremental Increase. 
 (c)
Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of one or more executed Incremental Agreements increasing the Commitments of Increasing Lenders and/or adding Commitments from Additional Lenders as provided in this Section 2.19,
(i) the Aggregate Commitments shall be increased automatically on the effective date set forth in such Incremental Agreements by the aggregate amount indicated in such Incremental Agreements without further action by the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent and the Issuing Banks or any Lender, (ii) Schedule 2.01 shall be amended to add such Additional Lender’s Commitment or to reflect the increase in the Commitment of an Increasing Lender, and the Applicable Percentages of the
Lenders shall be adjusted accordingly to reflect the Incremental Increase of each Additional Lender 

  
 82 

 
and/or each Increasing Lender, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall distribute to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each Lender the revised
Schedule 2.01 which may be delivered or furnished by using Electronic Systems in accordance with Section 9.01(b), (iv) any such Additional Lender shall be deemed to be a party in all respects to this Agreement and any
other Loan Documents to which the Lenders are a party, and (v) upon the effective date set forth in such Incremental Agreement, any such Lender party to the Incremental Agreement shall purchase a pro rata portion of the outstanding Loans
(including Swingline Loans and participations in the aggregate amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit) of each of the current Lenders such that each Lender (including any Additional Lender, if applicable) shall hold its respective
Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests in amounts available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit) as reflected in the revised Schedule 2.01 required by this Section 2.19. 

SECTION 2.20 Borrowing Base. 

(a) Initial Borrowing Base. For the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the first Redetermination Date to
occur thereafter, the Borrowing Base shall be $3,500,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowing Base may be subject to adjustment from time to time prior to the first Redetermination Date pursuant to the Borrowing Base Adjustment
Provisions. 
 (b) Scheduled and Interim Redeterminations. 

(i) The Borrowing Base shall be redetermined on a semi-annual basis in accordance with this
Section 2.20 (each such redetermination, a “Scheduled Redetermination”). Subject to Section 2.20(c), such redetermined Borrowing Base shall become effective and applicable to the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders on or about April 1st or October 1st of each year, as
applicable, commencing with the Scheduled Redetermination to occur on or about October 1, 2022. 
 (ii) In addition,
(A) the Borrower may, by notifying the Administrative Agent thereof, elect to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined one (1) time between each Scheduled Redetermination, (B) without duplication of any redetermination requested
pursuant to (A) of this paragraph, the Borrower may, by notifying the Administrative Agent thereof, elect to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined if the Borrower acquires Proved Oil and Gas Properties which are to be Borrowing Base
Properties having a PV-9 (calculated at the time of such acquisition) in excess of five percent (5%) of the Borrowing Base in effect immediately prior to such acquisition (such Oil and Gas Properties, the
“Acquired Material Oil and Gas Properties”), (C) the Administrative Agent may, at the direction of the Required Lenders, by notifying the Borrower thereof, elect to cause the Borrowing Base to be redetermined one time between
each Scheduled Redetermination (provided that the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders will not request an Interim Redetermination pursuant to this clause (C) prior to the Scheduled Redetermination to occur
on or about October 1, 2022 (provided further that, for the avoidance of doubt, such proviso shall not preclude any adjustments to the Borrowing Base pursuant to the Borrowing Base Adjustment Provisions)) and (D) without duplication
of any redetermination provided for above, upon the termination of any Interim Investment Grade Period, the Borrowing Base shall be redetermined, in each case, in accordance with this Section 2.20 (each redetermination
referred to in this clause (ii) being an “Interim Redetermination”). 

  
 83 

 (c) Each Scheduled Redetermination and each Interim Redetermination shall be effectuated as
follows: 
 (i) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of (A) the applicable Reserve Report and related Reserve Report
Certificate (provided that in the case of Acquired Material Oil and Gas Properties, the Borrower may provide a Reserve Report and a Reserve Report Certificate only in respect of such Acquired Material Oil and Gas Properties) and (B) such
other reports, data and supplemental information, including the information provided pursuant to Section 5.01 and Section 5.15, as may, from time to time, be reasonably requested by the
Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (the Reserve Report, related Reserve Report Certificate and such other reports, data and supplemental information being the “Engineering Reports”), the Administrative Agent shall evaluate
the information contained in the Engineering Reports and shall, in its sole discretion, propose a new Borrowing Base (the “Proposed Borrowing Base”) based upon such information and such other information (including the status of
title information with respect to the Oil and Gas Properties as described in the Engineering Reports and the existence of any other Indebtedness) as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate in its sole discretion and consistent with its customary
oil and gas lending criteria as it exists at the particular time. In no event shall the Proposed Borrowing Base exceed the Maximum Credit Amount. 

(ii) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the Proposed Borrowing Base (the “Proposed
Borrowing Base Notice”): 
 (A) in the case of a Scheduled Redetermination, (1) if the Administrative Agent
shall have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.15(a) and (c) in a timely and complete manner, then on or before the fifteenth (15th) day following the date of delivery (or such later date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree) or (2) if the Administrative Agent shall not have received the Engineering
Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.15(a) and (c) in a timely and complete manner, then on or before the fifteenth
(15th) day (or such later date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree) after the Administrative Agent has received complete Engineering Reports from the Borrower and has had a
reasonable opportunity to determine the Proposed Borrowing Base in accordance with Section 2.20(c)(i); and 

(B) in the case of an Interim Redetermination, on or before the thirtieth
(30th) day after the Administrative Agent has received the required Engineering Reports (unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower). 

(iii) Any Proposed Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect must be approved or be deemed to have
been approved by all Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders), and any Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base then in effect must be approved or be deemed to have been approved by the Required Lenders, in each
case, as provided in this Section 2.20(c)(iii). Such decisions will be made by each Lender based upon such criteria as such Lender deems appropriate in its sole discretion and in accordance with each Lender’s normal
and customary standards and practices for determining the value of Oil and Gas Properties based upon its usual and customary criteria for reserve based lending as they exist from time to time (including the assets, liabilities, cash flow, business,
properties, prospects, management and ownership of the Borrower and the effect of Swap Agreements). Upon receipt of the Proposed Borrowing Base Notice, each Lender shall have fifteen (15) days to agree with the Proposed Borrowing Base or
disagree with the Proposed Borrowing Base by proposing an alternate Borrowing Base, as applicable. If, at the end of such fifteen (15) day period, any Lender has not communicated its approval or disapproval in writing to the Administrative
Agent, such silence shall be deemed to be an approval of such Proposed Borrowing Base. If, at the end of such fifteen (15) day period, all of the Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders), in the case of a Proposed

  
 84 

 
Borrowing Base that would increase the Borrowing Base then in effect, or the Required Lenders, in the case of a Proposed Borrowing Base that would decrease or maintain the Borrowing Base then in
effect, have approved or deemed to have approved, as aforesaid, the Proposed Borrowing Base, then the Proposed Borrowing Base shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective on the date specified in Section 2.20(d). If,
however, at the end of such fifteen (15) day period, all of the Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders) or the Required Lenders, as applicable, have not approved or deemed to have approved the Proposed Borrowing Base as indicated above, then
the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter poll the Lenders to ascertain the highest Borrowing Base then acceptable to all of the Lenders (in the case of any increase to the Borrowing Base, as applicable) or a number of Lenders sufficient to
constitute the Required Lenders (in any other case) and such amount shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective on the date specified in Section 2.20(d). 

(d) Effectiveness of a Redetermined Borrowing Base. Subject to Section 2.20(f), after a redetermined
Borrowing Base is approved or deemed to have been approved by all of the Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders) or the Required Lenders, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.20(c)(iii), the Administrative Agent shall
deliver a notice (the “New Borrowing Base Notice”) to the Borrower and the Lenders regarding the amount of the redetermined Borrowing Base and such amount shall become the new Borrowing Base, effective and applicable to the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders: 
 (i) in the case of a Scheduled Redetermination,
(A) if the Administrative Agent shall have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Sections 5.15(a) and (c) in a timely and complete manner and all of the
Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, have approved or are deemed to have approved the Proposed Borrowing Base before April 1st or October
1st, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.20(c)(iii), then on the date specified in such New Borrowing Base Notice, which shall be on or before April 1st or October 1st of each year, as applicable (or such later time as (x) the Borrower may agree upon request of the
Administrative Agent or (y) the Required Lenders may agree upon the request of the Borrower), or (B) if the Administrative Agent shall not have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to
Sections 5.15(a) and (c) in a timely and complete manner, or if all of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, have not approved or are deemed to have approved the Proposed Borrowing Base before
April 1st or October 1st, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.20(c)(iii), then on the Business Day next
succeeding delivery of such New Borrowing Base Notice; and 
 (ii) in the case of an Interim Redetermination, on the Business
Day next succeeding delivery of such New Borrowing Base Notice. 
 Subject to Section 2.20(f), such amount shall
then become the Borrowing Base until the next Scheduled Redetermination Date, the next Interim Redetermination Date or the next adjustment to the Borrowing Base under the Borrowing Base Adjustment Provisions, whichever occurs first. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no Scheduled Redetermination or Interim Redetermination shall become effective until the New Borrowing Base Notice related thereto is received by the Borrower. 

  
 85 

 (e) Adjustments of Borrowing Base. In addition to any adjustments to the Borrowing
Base pursuant to Section 5.11: 
 (i) Borrowing Base Property Dispositions and Borrowing Base
Hedge Unwinds. Upon the occurrence of any Borrowing Base Property Disposition or any Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind, the Borrowing Base shall be immediately reduced by an amount equal to (x) the Borrowing Base Value of the Borrowing Base
Properties that are subject to such Borrowing Base Property Disposition or (y) the Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind Value with respect to such Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind, as applicable; provided, however, that, so long as no Borrowing Base
Deficiency exists immediately prior to such Borrowing Base Property Disposition or Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind, as applicable, such reduction in the Borrowing Base shall not occur unless and until any of the following shall result therefrom: 

(A) in the case of any such Borrowing Base Property Disposition or any such Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind, the sum of
(1) the aggregate Borrowing Base Value of all Borrowing Base Properties subject to Borrowing Base Property Dispositions effected since the most recent Scheduled Redetermination Date plus (2) the aggregate Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind
Value with respect to all Borrowing Base Hedge Unwinds effected since the most recent Scheduled Redetermination Date, equals or exceeds ten percent (10%) of the total amount of the Borrowing Base then in effect; 

(B) in the case of any such Borrowing Base Property Disposition, the aggregate Borrowing Base Value of all Borrowing Base
Properties subject to Borrowing Base Property Dispositions effected since the most recent Scheduled Redetermination Date equals or exceeds five percent (5%) of the total amount of the Borrowing Base then in effect; or 

(C) in the case of any such Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind, the aggregate Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind Value with respect to all
Borrowing Base Hedge Unwinds effected since the most recent Scheduled Redetermination Date equals or exceeds five percent (5%) of the total amount of the Borrowing Base then in effect. 

(ii) Issuance of Permitted Unsecured Notes. Upon the issuance of any Permitted Unsecured Notes (other than
(A) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of non-revolving Indebtedness and (B) Revolver Prepayment Notes), the Borrowing Base shall be immediately reduced by an amount equal to the product
of 0.25 multiplied by the stated principal amount of such Permitted Unsecured Notes on the date such Permitted Unsecured Notes are issued (without regard to any original issue discount). 

(f) Borrower’s Right to Elect Reduced Borrowing Base. At any time between each Scheduled Redetermination, the
Borrower may provide written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders specifying that, for the period from the date of such notice until the next succeeding Redetermination Date or the next succeeding adjustment of the Borrowing Base
pursuant to the Borrowing Base Adjustment Provisions (whichever occurs first), the Borrowing Base will be a lesser amount than the then current Borrowing Base, whereupon such specified lesser amount will become the new Borrowing Base. The
Borrower’s notice under this Section 2.20(f) shall be irrevocable, but without prejudice to its rights to initiate Interim Redeterminations. 

(g) Administrative Agent Data. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees to provide promptly, and in any event within three Business Days,
following its receipt of a written request therefor by the Borrower, an updated Bank Price Deck. 
 (h) Interim Investment Grade Period
Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, at any time after the Effective Date, the Borrower commences an Interim Investment Grade Period, then at all times during such Interim Investment Grade Period, there shall be no
Borrowing Base and the provisions of this Section 2.20 (other than clause (g) and this clause (h)) will be deemed to be inapplicable and shall be disregarded for all purposes during such Interim
Investment Grade Period. For the 

  
 86 

 
avoidance of doubt, upon the termination of any Interim Investment Grade Period, (i) a Borrowing Base Period shall automatically commence, (ii) the Borrowing Base shall be redetermined
pursuant to Section 2.02(b), and (iii) prior to the delivery of the New Borrowing Base Notice as a result of such redetermination, the Borrowing Base shall be deemed to be the Borrowing Base as in effect immediately
prior to the commencement of the most recently ended Interim Investment Grade Period. 
 SECTION 2.21 Swingline Loans. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, from time to time during the Availability Period, the Swingline Lender agrees to
make Swingline Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender exceeding the Swingline
Commitment, (ii) the amount of the Swingline Lender’s Credit Exposure exceeding its Commitment or (iii) the Total Credit Exposure exceeding the Credit Limit; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a
Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. 

(b) To request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or
electronic mail), not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), the deposit account of the
Borrower to which funds shall be transferred by the Swingline Lender and the amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Borrower. The Swingline
Lender shall make the requested Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit or wire transfer in immediately available funds to the deposit account of the Borrower specified on the applicable notice (or, in the case of a Swingline
Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.04(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank) by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

 (c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent require the Lenders to acquire participations in all or
a portion of its Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each
Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, promptly upon receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent (and in any event, if
such notice is received by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on a Business Day no later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on such Business Day and if received after 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on a Business Day shall mean no later than 10:00 a.m.
New York City time on the immediately succeeding Business Day), to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that
its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or
termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately
available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the
Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to
this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party

authorized by proper organizational proceedings on the part of the applicable Loan Party. Each Loan Document has been duly and validly executed and delivered by or on behalf of each Loan Party that is a party thereto, and the Loan Documents to which
each Loan Party is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws

taking of possession or control by the Administrative Agent of the Collateral described in the Security Agreement with respect to which a security interest may be perfected only by possession or control, such Liens shall constitute perfected and
continuing Liens on the Collateral, securing the Secured Obligations, enforceable against the Loan Parties and all third parties, and having priority over all other Liens except in the case of (a) Permitted Liens, to the extent any such
Permitted Liens would have priority over the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to any applicable Requirement of Law and (b) Liens perfected only by possession (including possession of any certificate of title) to the extent
the Administrative Agent is not required by the terms of the Security Agreement to, or does not, maintain possession of such Collateral. 

(b) Each Mortgage is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, legal and valid Liens

Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiary specified as the owner owns the working interests and net revenue interests attributable to the Hydrocarbon Interests as reflected in the most recently delivered Reserve Report, and the ownership of such
properties shall not in any material respect obligate the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary to bear the costs and expenses relating to the maintenance, development and operations of each such property in an amount in excess of the working
interest of each property set forth in the most recently delivered Reserve Report that is not offset by a corresponding proportionate increase in the Borrower’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s net revenue interest in such property. The

Restricted Subsidiary, including all easements and rights of way, include all rights and Properties necessary to permit the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries to conduct their respective businesses as currently conducted, except to the extent

Subsidiary” under the TLB Credit Agreement (to the extent the TLB Credit Agreement is in effect); provided, however, that any such designation by the Borrower of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary during a Borrowing Base Period
shall constitute a Borrowing Base Property Disposition for the purposes of Section 2.20(e)(i)(A)-(C) if such Subsidiary owns Borrowing Base Properties prior to such designation. Such written notice shall be accompanied by a
certificate of the Borrower executed on its behalf by a Financial Officer, certifying as to the matters set forth in the preceding sentence. 

(d) The Borrower may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if, immediately after giving effect to such
designation: (i) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained in each of the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any such representations and warranties that are qualified as to
materiality in the text thereof, such representations and warranties must be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date of such designation as if made on and as of the date of such designation (or, if stated to have been made expressly
as of an earlier date, were true and correct in all material respects as of such date), (ii) no Default or Event of Default would exist, (iii) any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary (which shall be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary
as of the date of designation) is permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 6.03, (iv) any Liens on Property of such Subsidiary (which shall be deemed to be created or incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary
as of the date of designation) are Permitted Liens and (v) such Subsidiary is designated as a “Restricted Subsidiary” under the TLB Credit Agreement (to the extent the TLB Credit Agreement is in effect). 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if, either immediately before or
immediately after such designation hereunder, it owns any Material Intellectual Property. 
 SECTION 5.09 Subsidiary Guarantors.

 (a) In the event that, during any Borrowing Base Period, any Person becomes a Borrowing Base Period Required Guarantor (including, with
respect to clause (a) of the definition of “Borrowing Base Period Required Guarantor”, if any Subsidiary is designated by the Borrower as, or is deemed designated as, a Material Domestic Subsidiary pursuant to the definition of
“Material Domestic Subsidiary”), the Borrower shall promptly (and, in any event, within thirty (30) days after such Person becomes a Borrowing Base Period Required Guarantor, as such time period may be extended by the Administrative
Agent in its sole discretion): 
 (i) cause such Person to become a Subsidiary Guarantor by delivering to the
Administrative Agent a duly executed supplement to the Subsidiary Guaranty and the Security Agreement; 
 (ii) cause all of
the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of such Person owned by a Loan Party to be subject to a first priority, perfected Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent to secure the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of,
and subject to the exceptions set forth in, the Collateral Documents, subject 

  
 107 

 
in any case to Liens created under the Loan Documents, and restrictions on transfer imposed by applicable securities laws and other Liens permitted hereunder that arise by operation of law and
(x) if any of such Equity Interests consist of certificated securities, deliver to the Administrative Agent the certificates representing such securities, in each case with appropriate endorsements or transfer powers, and (y) if any of
such Equity Interests consist of uncertificated securities, enter into a control agreement with the issuer of such Equity Interests granting the Administrative Agent control (within the meaning of the UCC) over such uncertificated securities, in
each case, subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent then in effect); and 
 (iii) deliver to the
Administrative Agent appropriate resolutions, other Organizational Documents and legal opinions, in each case, as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, in each case, in substantially the forms attached to such Loan Document or
substantially similar to those documents delivered on the Effective Date pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(ix), (x) and (xi), to the extent applicable, or which shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) If any Person becomes an Other Indebtedness Obligor during any Interim Investment Grade
Period, the Borrower shall promptly (and, in any event, within thirty (30) days after such Person becomes an Other Indebtedness Obligor, as such time period may be extended by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) cause such Person
to become a Subsidiary Guarantor and, in connection therewith, deliver to the Administrative Agent appropriate resolutions, other Organizational Documents and legal opinions, in each case, as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent
and substantially similar to those documents delivered on the Effective Date pursuant to Section 4.01 with respect to Loan Parties or which shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent. 
 (c) At any time, the Borrower, in its sole discretion, may elect to cause any Restricted Subsidiary to become a
Subsidiary Guarantor by causing such Restricted Subsidiary to join the Subsidiary Guaranty. In connection with any such election, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent appropriate resolutions, other Organizational Documents and
legal opinions, in each case, as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and substantially similar to those documents delivered on the Effective Date pursuant to Section 4.01 with respect to the Loan Parties
or which shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 5.10 Additional
Collateral; Further Assurances. 
 (a) In connection with each redetermination of the Borrowing Base during a Borrowing Base Period, the
Borrower shall review the Reserve Report delivered in connection therewith and the list of current Mortgaged Properties (as described in Section 5.15(c)(vi)) to ascertain whether the Mortgaged Properties represent at least
85% of the total PV-9 of the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated in such Reserve Report. In the event that the Mortgaged Properties do not represent at least 85% of such total
PV-9, then the Borrower shall, and shall cause the other Loan Parties to, grant, on or prior to the earlier of (i) sixty (60) days after delivery of the certificate required under
Section 5.15(c) and (ii) thirty (30) days after the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Mortgaged Properties do not represent at least 85% of such total PV-9 (or
such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion), to the Administrative Agent as security for the Secured Obligations a first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Mortgaged Property Liens) on additional Oil and Gas
Properties not already subject to a Lien of the Collateral Documents such that after giving effect thereto, the Mortgaged Properties will represent at least 85% of such total PV-9. All such Liens will be created and perfected by and in accordance
with the Collateral Documents, including, if applicable, any additional Mortgages. 

  
 108 

 (b) Without limiting the foregoing, during a Borrowing Base Period, the Borrower shall, and
shall cause each Loan Party to, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Administrative Agent such documents, agreements, instruments, forms and notices and will take or cause to be taken such further actions (including the
filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, Mortgages and other documents serving notices of assignment and such other actions or deliveries of the type required by Section 4.01) which may be required by
Requirements of Law or which the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, reasonably request to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to ensure perfection and priority of the Liens created or
intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, all at the expense of the Loan Parties and subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent then in effect). 

(c) In connection with the incurrence of any Permitted Pari Term Loan Indebtedness or Permitted Junior Lien Term Loan Indebtedness, the
Borrower shall review the Term Loan Incurrence Engineering Report delivered in connection therewith and the then-current list of Mortgaged Properties (which, if different than the schedule attached to the Reserve Report Certificate most recently
delivered pursuant to Section 5.15(c), shall be provided to the Administrative Agent) to ascertain whether the Mortgaged Properties represent at least 85% of the total PV-9 of the
related Term Loan Incurrence Engineering Report Properties. In the event that the Mortgaged Properties do not represent at least 85% of such total PV-9, then the Borrower shall, and shall cause the other Loan
Parties to, grant, on or prior to the date that is thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) after the incurrence of such Permitted Pari Term Loan Indebtedness or Permitted
Junior Lien Term Loan Indebtedness (or, if such Permitted Pari Term Loan Indebtedness or Permitted Junior Lien Term Loan Indebtedness is being incurred in connection with an acquisition of Oil and Gas Properties and/or a Subsidiary owning Oil and
Gas Properties, thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) after the consummation of such acquisition), to the Administrative Agent as security for the Secured Obligations a
first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Mortgaged Property Liens) on additional Oil and Gas Properties not already subject to a Lien of the Collateral Documents such that after giving effect thereto, the Mortgaged Properties will represent at
least 85% of such total PV-9. All such Liens will be created and perfected by and in accordance with the Collateral Documents, including, if applicable, any additional Mortgages. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, at any time after the Effective Date, the Borrower commences an Interim Investment
Grade Period, then at all times during such Interim Investment Grade Period, the provisions of Section 5.10(a) through (c) will be deemed to be inapplicable and shall be disregarded for all purposes during such
Interim Investment Grade Period. 
 (e) Within sixty (60) days after the commencement of a Borrowing Base Period after any Interim
Investment Grade Period (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion), the Borrower shall, and shall cause each Borrowing Base Period Required Guarantor to: 

(i) execute and deliver Collateral Documents granting a Lien on, and security interest in, the Collateral described in the
Collateral Documents as in effect immediately prior to the commencement of the most recently ended Interim Investment Grade Period (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include the execution and delivery of Control Agreements with respect to any
Deposit Accounts or Securities Accounts of the Loan Parties, in each case, other than Excluded Accounts); 
 (ii) cause all
of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of each Borrowing Base Period Required Guarantor owned by a Loan Party to be subject to a first priority, perfected Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent to secure the Secured Obligations in
accordance with the terms and conditions of, and subject to the exceptions set forth in, the 

  
 109 

 
Collateral Documents in existence prior to the commencement of the most recently ended Interim Investment Grade Period, subject in any case to Liens created under the Loan Documents, restrictions
on transfer imposed by applicable securities laws and other Liens permitted hereunder that arise by operation of law and (x) if any of such Equity Interests consist of certificated securities, deliver to the Administrative Agent the
certificates representing such securities, in each case with appropriate endorsements or transfer powers, and (y) if any of such Equity Interests consist of uncertificated securities, enter into a control agreement with the issuer of such
Equity Interests granting the Administrative Agent control (within the meaning of the UCC) over such uncertificated securities, in each case, subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent then in effect); 

(iii) execute and deliver Mortgages such that the Mortgaged Properties (after giving effect to such Mortgages) represent at
least 85% of the total PV-9 of the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report (after giving effect to exploration and production activities, acquisitions, dispositions
and production); 
 (iv) deliver to the Administrative Agent title information in form and substance reasonably acceptable to
the Administrative Agent (but consistent with usual and customary standards for the geographic regions in which the Borrowing Base Properties are located) covering enough of the Proved Reserves so that the Administrative Agent shall have received
(together with title information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent) satisfactory title information on at least 80% of the total PV-9 of the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated in the most
recently delivered Reserve Report (after giving effect to exploration and production activities, acquisitions, dispositions and production); 

(v) cause each Borrowing Base Period Required Guarantor to become a Subsidiary Guarantor; 

(vi) deliver to the Administrative Agent appropriate resolutions, other Organizational Documents and legal opinions as may be
reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, in each case, in form substantially similar to those documents delivered on the Effective Date pursuant to Section 4.01 with respect to Loan Parties or in such other form
and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and 
 (vii) execute and deliver, or cause to be executed
and delivered, to the Administrative Agent such other documents, agreements, instruments, forms and notices and take or cause to be taken such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, Mortgages
and other documents serving notices of assignment and such other actions or deliveries of the type required by Section 4.01) which may be required by Requirements of Law or which the Administrative Agent may reasonably
request to carry out the terms and conditions of this Section 5.10(e) and to ensure perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, all at the expense of the Loan Parties
and subject to the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent then in effect). 
 For the avoidance of doubt, the sixty (60) day period provided
by this Section 5.10(e) shall be without duplication to (and not in addition to) any other grace period to enter into Collateral Documents provided under this Agreement. 

  
 110 

 SECTION 5.11 Title Information. 

(a) In connection with the delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of each Reserve Report required by
Section 5.15(a) during a Borrowing Base Period, the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent title information in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent but consistent with usual and
customary standards for the geographic regions in which the Borrowing Base Properties are located covering enough of the Proved Reserves so that the Administrative Agent shall have received (together with title information previously delivered to
the Administrative Agent) satisfactory title information on at least 80% of the total PV-9 of the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report. 

(b) If the Borrower has provided title information for Proved Reserves under Section 5.11(a), the Borrower shall,
within sixty (60) days after notice from the Administrative Agent (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) that title defects or exceptions exist with respect to such Proved Reserves, either
(i) cure any such asserted title defects or exceptions (including defects or exceptions as to priority) which are not Permitted Liens raised by such title information, (ii) substitute acceptable Mortgaged Properties with no title defects
or exceptions (except for Permitted Mortgaged Property Liens) having an equivalent or greater PV-9 or (iii) deliver title information in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative
Agent so that the Administrative Agent shall have received, together with title information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, satisfactory title information on at least 80% of the total PV-9 of
the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report. If the Borrower is unable to cure any title defect requested by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to be cured within the 60-day period
specified in this Section 5.11(b) (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) or the Borrower does not substitute acceptable Mortgaged Properties or the Borrower does not
comply with the requirement to provide acceptable title information on at least 80% of the total PV-9 of the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated in the most recent Reserve Report, such failure shall not be a
Default, but instead the Administrative Agent and/or the Required Lenders shall have the right to exercise the remedy described in the immediately following sentence in their sole discretion from time to time, and any failure to so exercise this
remedy at any time shall not be a waiver as to future exercise of the remedy by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders. To the extent that the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders are not reasonably satisfied with title to any Mortgaged
Property after the aforementioned 60-day period has elapsed, such unacceptable Mortgaged Property shall not count towards the 80% requirement, and the Administrative Agent may send a notice to the Borrower and
the Lenders that the then outstanding Borrowing Base shall be reduced by an amount as determined by the Required Lenders to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the requirement to provide acceptable title information on Hydrocarbon Interests
constituting 80% of the total PV-9 of the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated by the most recent Reserve Report. This new Borrowing Base shall become effective immediately after receipt of such notice. 

(c) In connection with the incurrence of any Permitted Pari Term Loan Indebtedness or Permitted Junior Lien Term Loan Indebtedness and, in
each case, the delivery of the related Term Loan Incurrence Engineering Report in connection therewith, the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent, within thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent
may agree in its sole discretion) after the incurrence of such Permitted Pari Term Loan Indebtedness or Permitted Junior Lien Term Loan Indebtedness (or, if such Permitted Pari Term Loan Indebtedness or Permitted Junior Lien Term Loan Indebtedness
is being incurred in connection with an acquisition of Oil and Gas Properties and/or a Subsidiary owning Oil and Gas Properties, thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) after
the consummation of such acquisition), title information in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (but consistent with usual and customary standards for the geographic regions in which the related Term Loan Incurrence
Engineering Report Properties are located) covering enough of the Proved Reserves so that the Administrative Agent shall have received (together with title information previously delivered to the Administrative Agent) satisfactory title information
on at least 80% of the total PV-9 of the related Term Loan Incurrence Engineering Report Properties. 

  
 111 

 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, at any time after the Effective
Date, the Borrower commences an Interim Investment Grade Period, then at all times during such Interim Investment Grade Period, the provisions of Section 5.11(a) through (c) will be deemed to be inapplicable and
shall be disregarded for all purposes during such Interim Investment Grade Period. 
 SECTION 5.12 Reserved. 

SECTION 5.13 Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts. 

(a) The Borrower will, and will cause each of the Subsidiary Guarantors to, keep all of its Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts separate
from, and will not commingle any of its cash or cash equivalents with, those of other Persons (including its Subsidiaries and Affiliates); provided that the foregoing shall not restrict any Investment permitted under
Section 6.05 or any Restricted Payment permitted under Section 6.07. 
 (b) At all times
during any Borrowing Base Period, (i) the Borrower will, and will cause each of the Subsidiary Guarantors to, deposit, or cause to be deposited, promptly, and in any event no later than the second Business Day after the receipt thereof, all of
its cash and cash equivalents (other than amounts to be deposited in Excluded Accounts) in Controlled Accounts and (ii) each Deposit Account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor (other than an Excluded Account) shall at all times be a
Controlled Account and each Securities Account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor (other than an Excluded Account) shall at all times be a Controlled Account. 

SECTION 5.14 Keepwell. The Borrower hereby guarantees the payment of all Secured Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor and
absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time to each Subsidiary Guarantor (if any) in order for such Subsidiary Guarantor to honor its obligations under the
applicable Subsidiary Guaranty and, during any Borrowing Base Period, the Collateral Documents to which it is a party (if any), including in respect of Secured Swap Obligations (provided, however, that the Borrower shall only be liable under
this Section 5.14 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 5.14, or otherwise under this Agreement or any Loan
Document, as it relates to such other Loan Parties, voidable under applicable Requirements of Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The Borrower intends that this
Section 5.14 constitute, and this Section 5.14 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each Subsidiary Guarantor for all purposes of
Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
 SECTION 5.15 Reserve Reports. 

(a) On or about March 1st and September 1st of each year (commencing with September 1, 2022), the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Lender a Reserve Report evaluating the Proved Oil and Gas
Properties of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties as of the immediately preceding January 1st and July 1st, respectively. The Reserve
Report as of January 1st and delivered on or about March 1st of each year (the “January 1 Reserve
Report”) shall be prepared by one or more Approved Petroleum Engineers or prepared internally by petroleum engineers of the Borrower and audited by one or more Approved Petroleum Engineers. Each other Reserve Report may be prepared by one
or more Approved Petroleum Engineers or internally under the supervision of the senior reserve engineer of the Borrower who shall certify such Reserve Report to have been prepared substantially in accordance with the procedures used in the
immediately preceding January 1 Reserve Report, except as otherwise specified therein. 

  
 112 

 (b) In the event of an Interim Redetermination, the Borrower shall furnish to the
Administrative Agent for distribution to each Lender a Reserve Report prepared by one or more Approved Petroleum Engineers or by or under the supervision of the senior reserve engineer of the Borrower to have been prepared substantially in
accordance with the procedures used in the immediately preceding January 1 Reserve Report, except as otherwise specified therein. For any Interim Redetermination requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower pursuant to
Section 2.20(b), the Borrower shall provide such Reserve Report with an “as of” date as required by the Administrative Agent as soon as possible, but in any event no later than thirty (30) days following the
receipt of such request, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent. 
 (c) With the delivery of each Reserve Report, the Borrower
shall provide to the Administrative Agent a certificate (the “Reserve Report Certificate”) from the Borrower executed on its behalf by an Authorized Officer certifying that in all material respects: (i) there are no statements
or conclusions in such Reserve Report which are based upon or include materially misleading information or fail to take into account material information regarding the matters reported therein, it being understood that such projections concerning
volumes attributable to the Proved Oil and Gas Properties and production and cost estimates contained in the Reserve Report are necessarily based upon professional opinions, estimates and projections and that the Borrower does not warrant that such
opinions, estimates and projections will ultimately prove to have been accurate, (ii) the Borrower and the applicable Restricted Subsidiaries have good and defensible title to the Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such Reserve Report and such
Properties are free of all Liens except for Permitted Mortgaged Property Liens, (iii) except as set forth on an exhibit to such certificate, on a net basis there are no gas imbalances, take-or-pay or other prepayments in excess of the volume specified in Section 3.26 with respect to its Oil and Gas Properties evaluated in such Reserve Report which would require the
Borrower or any other Loan Party to deliver Hydrocarbons either generally or produced from such Oil and Gas Properties at some future time without then or thereafter receiving full payment therefor, (iv) none of the Oil and Gas Properties of
the Borrower or any other Loan Party have been Disposed since the date of the immediately preceding Reserve Report to the date of the Reserve Report being delivered except (A) for Dispositions that have resulted in a change to such
Person’s working interests and/or net revenue interests in Oil and Gas Properties that are reflected in such Reserve Report and (B) as set forth on an exhibit to the certificate, which exhibit shall list all of its Oil and Gas Properties
Disposed and in such detail as reasonably required by the Administrative Agent, (v) in the case of each Reserve Report delivered during a Borrowing Base Period, no material agreements exist which are not cancelable on sixty (60) days’
notice or less without penalty or detriment for the sale of production from the Loan Parties’ Hydrocarbons (including calls on or other rights to purchase production, whether or not the same are currently being exercised) that (A) pertain
to the sale of production at a fixed price and (B) have a maturity or expiry date of longer than six (6) months from the date of such Reserve Report, in each case, except as set forth on an exhibit to such certificate and (vi) in the
case of each Reserve Report delivered during a Borrowing Base Period, attached thereto is a schedule of the Borrowing Base Properties evaluated by such Reserve Report that are Mortgaged Properties and demonstrating the percentage of the total value
of the Borrowing Base Properties (calculated as of the date of such Reserve Report) that the value of such Mortgaged Properties represent. 

(d) With respect to each Fiscal Quarter for which the PV-9 Coverage Ratio is tested, not later than
(i) 45 days after the close of each of the first three Fiscal Quarters of each Fiscal Year and (ii) 90 days after the close of the last Fiscal Quarter of each Fiscal Year, the Borrower shall deliver an update to the most recent Reserve Report
delivered or required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 5.15 on or prior to the immediately preceding March 1st or September 1st, as applicable, setting forth the Oil and Gas Properties of the Loan Parties constituting Proved Reserves as of the last day of such Fiscal Quarter or

  
 113 

 
Fiscal Year, as applicable (each such updated report, a “Quarterly Engineering Report”). Each such Quarterly Engineering Report (i) shall have been adjusted to reflect the
production levels since the delivery of the most recent Reserve Report and Oil and Gas Properties that have been Disposed of or acquired since the date of delivery of such Reserve Report, (ii) shall be based on the most recent Bank Price Deck
provided to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.20(g), (iii) shall be prepared by one or more Approved Petroleum Engineers or by or under the supervision of the senior reserve engineer of the
Borrower to have been prepared substantially in accordance with the procedures used in the immediately preceding January 1 Reserve Report, except as otherwise specified therein and (iv) shall otherwise be “rolled forward” in a
manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

expenses, charges and additional or contingent interest on obligations described in clauses (a) through (l) above. 
 For
purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.03, in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) at any time, whether at the time of incurrence or upon the application of all or a portion of the

of the notes issued in such offering may constitute Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of Existing Senior Notes. 

  
 119 

 For purposes of this Section 6.03, any payment by the Borrower or any Restricted

cash proceeds that have been so escrowed in order to effect such Redemption or (2) to the extent the cash proceeds from the issuance of such Permitted Unsecured Notes are not escrowed as described in clause (1)(x), at the
time of and immediately after giving pro forma effect to such Redemption, Availability shall be greater than or equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Permitted Unsecured Notes issued and (ii) 20% of the Credit
Limit then in effect; and 
 (e) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Redeem any Qualifying Acquisition Indebtedness incurred in
advance of (and not substantially contemporaneously with) the closing of the acquisition of the applicable Qualifying Acquisition Properties at par (plus any interest accrued thereon pursuant to the terms of such Qualifying Acquisition
Indebtedness), if (i) the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary becomes obligated to effect the Redemption of such Qualifying Acquisition Indebtedness as a result of such acquisition not being consummated prior to the specified “outside
date” (or any similar term) in respect of such acquisition under the definitive acquisition agreement governing such acquisition (or such other date after such “outside date” as agreed by the lenders or other investors providing such
Qualifying Acquisition Indebtedness), so long as such Redemption occurs no later than 180 days after the date on which such Qualifying Acquisition Indebtedness is incurred and (ii) at the time of and immediately after giving pro forma effect to
such Redemption, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 SECTION 6.11 Limitation on Transactions
with Affiliates. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, Dispose of any property or assets to, or purchase, lease or otherwise acquire any property or assets from, or otherwise engage in
any other transactions with, any of its Affiliates, except in the ordinary course of business at prices and on terms and conditions not less favorable to the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary than could be obtained on an arm’s-length basis from unrelated third parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in this covenant shall not apply to (a) transactions between or among the Borrower and its
Restricted Subsidiaries not involving any other Affiliate, (b) any Restricted Payment permitted by Section 6.07, (c) Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries permitted by Section 6.05(k) or
Section 6.05(n), (d) the payment of reasonable and customary regular fees to directors of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary who are not employees of such Person, (e) any other transaction with any employee, officer or

SECTION 6.12 Material Change in Business. The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) will not engage in any
business substantially different from those businesses of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries described in the Form 10-K of the Borrower for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the
SEC, and any businesses reasonably related, ancillary or complementary thereto. 
 SECTION 6.13 Swap Agreements. 

(a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any Swap Agreements with any Person other than: 

(i) Subject to clause (a)(iii) of this Section, Swap Agreements in the ordinary course of business and not for
speculative purposes in respect of commodities (A) with an Approved Swap Counterparty, (B) the tenor of which does not exceed five (5) years, and (C) on a net basis, the 

  
 126 

 
aggregate notional volumes for which, (x) excluding basis differential swaps on volumes hedged pursuant to other Swap Agreements and (y) only including the notional volume of one leg of
Swap Agreements that are collars, when aggregated with all other commodity Swap Agreements then in effect, (x) excluding basis differential swaps on volumes hedged pursuant to other Swap Agreements and (y) only including the notional
volume of one leg of Swap Agreements that are collars, do not exceed on a monthly basis (determined, in the case of contracts that are not settled on a monthly basis, by a monthly proration acceptable to the Administrative Agent), as of the date the
latest hedging transaction is entered into under any such Swap Agreement: 
 (A) for the period from the date of entering
into such hedging transaction through the twenty-fourth (24th) month from the date of entering into such hedging transaction, ninety percent (90%) of the reasonably anticipated projected production of crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas
(calculated separately on a monthly basis) from Proved Reserves of the Loan Parties evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report (provided that (i) for natural gas for the period from the Effective Date through
December 31, 2022, such ninety percent (90%) limitation shall instead be one hundred percent (100%) of the reasonably anticipated projected production of natural gas (calculated on a monthly basis) from Proved Reserves of the Loan Parties
evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report and (ii) for crude oil and natural gas liquids for the period from the Effective Date through December 31, 2022, such ninety percent (90%) limitation shall instead be one hundred
percent (100%) of the reasonably anticipated projected production of crude oil or natural gas liquids (calculated separately on a monthly basis) from Proved Reserves of the Loan Parties evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report); and

 (B) for the period from the twenty-fifth (25th) month from the date of entering into such hedging transactions through
the sixtieth (60th) month from the date of entering into such hedging transaction, eighty percent (80%) of the reasonably anticipated projected production of crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas (calculated separately on a monthly basis)
from Proved Reserves of the Loan Parties evaluated in the most recently delivered Reserve Report; 
 provided that for purposes of
entering into Swap Agreement trades or transactions under Section 6.13(a), forecasts of reasonably anticipated production from the Loan Parties’ Oil and Gas Properties constituting Proved Reserves as set forth on the
most recent Reserve Report delivered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be revised to account for any increase or decrease therein anticipated because of information obtained by the Loan Parties subsequent to the publication of such
Reserve Report, including any such party’s internal forecasts of production decline rates for existing wells and additions to or deletions from anticipated future production from new wells and completed acquisitions coming on stream or failing
to come on stream.  
 (ii) Swap Agreements entered into by the Borrower in the ordinary course of business and not
for speculative purposes in order to effectively cap, collar or exchange interest rates (from fixed to floating, from one floating rate to another floating rate or otherwise) with respect to any interest-bearing liability or investment of the
Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary; and 
 (iii) Swap Agreements in respect of commodities associated with pending
acquisitions of Oil and Gas Properties upon the signing of the applicable purchase and sale agreement (A) with an Approved Swap Counterparty, (B) with a tenor not to exceed five years commencing with the first full month after such Swap
Agreement is executed, and (C) the aggregate notional volumes 

  
 127 

 
for which, (x) excluding basis differential swaps on volumes hedged pursuant to other Swap Agreements and (y) only including the notional volume of one leg of Swap Agreements that are
collars, do not exceed, commencing with the first full month after the date such Swap Agreement is executed, seventy percent (70%) of the reasonably anticipated projected production of crude oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas (calculated
separately on a monthly basis) from the Proved Reserves to be acquired pursuant to such purchase and sale agreement; provided that, upon the ninetieth (90th) day after the date upon which the applicable purchase and sale agreement was entered
into, with such extensions as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, all Swap Agreements associated with the Oil and Gas Properties to be acquired pursuant thereto will be unwound or otherwise terminated such that the Borrower
is in compliance with the restrictions set forth in Section 6.13(a)(i). 
 It is understood that Swap Agreements in
respect of commodities which may, from time to time, “hedge” the same volumes, but different elements of commodity risk thereof, shall not be aggregated together when calculating the foregoing limitations on notional volumes. 

(b) In no event shall any Swap Agreement contain any requirement, agreement or covenant for the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries
to post collateral or margin to secure their obligations under such Swap Agreement or to cover market exposures (other than as secured by Liens permitted under Section 6.02(s)), provided that that the Secured Swap
Agreements may require that the obligations thereunder be secured pursuant to the Collateral Documents. 
 (c) During any Borrowing Base
Period, the Borrower shall not, nor shall it permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, effect any Borrowing Base Hedge Unwind unless in connection therewith, (i) the Borrowing Base shall be reduced in accordance with
Section 2.20(e) unless such reduction is not required pursuant to the proviso in Section 2.20(e)(i) and (ii) the Borrower shall make all mandatory prepayments required by, and within the time
periods set forth in, Section 2.09(d) (including after giving effect to any Borrowing Base reduction pursuant to Section 2.20(e)). 

(d) The Borrower will not, as of any Swap Calculation Date, permit the aggregate notional volumes for all Swap Agreements in respect of
commodities to which the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary is a party ((x) excluding basis differential swaps on volumes hedged pursuant to other Swap Agreements, (y) only including the notional volume of one leg of Swap Agreements
that are collars, and (z) excluding any Terminating Futures Contracts as of such Swap Calculation Date) to exceed the limits set forth in Section 6.13(a)(i)(A) or (B) for any future month ending after such Swap
Calculation Date and on or before the Swap Calculation End Date (and for this purpose, Section 6.13(a) shall be recalculated and tested as of the Swap Calculation Date as if all outstanding Swap Agreements in respect of
commodities were being entered into on such Calculation Date); provided that, if the foregoing limit is exceeded as of any Swap Calculation Date, it shall not constitute a violation of this Section 6.13(d) if the
Borrower shall, no later than sixty (60) days after such Swap Calculation Date, terminate, create off-setting positions or otherwise unwind existing Swap Agreements such that, at the applicable Swap
Unwind Date, after giving effect to such termination, offsetting position or unwind, future hedging volumes will not exceed the limits set forth in Section 6.13(a) (and for this purpose,
Section 6.13(a) shall be recalculated and tested as of the applicable Swap Unwind Date as if all outstanding Swap Agreements in respect of commodities (after giving effect to any such termination, offsetting position or
unwind) were being entered into on such Swap Unwind Date and the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to it demonstrating such compliance). 

SECTION 6.14 Deposit Accounts. During any Borrowing Base Period, subject to Section 5.13, none of the
Borrower or any other Loan Party will at any time own, open, establish or suffer to exist in its name any Deposit Account or Securities Account, except (a) Controlled Accounts and (b) Excluded Accounts. 

  
 128 

 SECTION 6.15
Take-or-Pay or Other Prepayments. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.26 or in each Reserve Report Certificate required to be delivered by the Borrower
hereunder, the Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, allow gas imbalances, take-or-pay or other prepayments with respect to the Borrowing
Base Properties that would require the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary to deliver Hydrocarbons at some future time without then or thereafter receiving full payment therefor to exceed on a net basis a volume equal to one percent (1%) of the
aggregate volumes of Hydrocarbons (on an Mcf basis) attributable to the Proved Reserves of the Loan Parties included in the most recent Reserve Report. 

SECTION 6.16 Marketing Activities. During any Borrowing Base Period, the Borrower will not, and will not permit any of the
Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in marketing activities for any Hydrocarbons or enter into any contracts related thereto other than (i) contracts for the sale of Hydrocarbons scheduled or reasonably estimated to be produced from Oil and Gas
Properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries during the period of such contract, (ii) contracts for the sale of Hydrocarbons scheduled or reasonably estimated to be produced from Oil and Gas Properties of third parties during the period of
such contract associated with the Oil and Gas Properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries that the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries has the right to market pursuant to joint operating agreements, unitization agreements or other similar
contracts that are usual and customary in the oil and gas business and (iii) Qualified Third Party Marketing Contracts. 

SECTION 6.17 Amendments to Organizational Documents and TLB Loan Documents. 

(a) The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of the Loan Parties to, amend, supplement or otherwise modify (or permit to be
amended, supplemented or modified) its Organizational Documents in any manner that would reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the rights or interests of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders. 

(b) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, amend, waive, modify or supplement or consent to any
amendment, waiver, modification or supplement to any of the TLB Loan Documents in any manner that would be reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the rights or interests of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders.

Material Adverse Effect);

governed), (ii) the default by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in the performance of any other term, provision or condition contained in any agreement under which any Material Indebtedness was created or is governed, the effect of which is
to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Material Indebtedness to cause, such Indebtedness to become due, or to require the prepayment, repurchase, redemption or defeasance thereof, prior to its stated maturity, or (iii) any
Material Indebtedness shall become due and payable or be required to be prepaid, repurchased, redeemed or defeased (other than by a regularly scheduled payment) prior to the stated maturity thereof; provided that

unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive days; 

  
 130 

 (i) Judgments. The Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall fail within 30 days to
pay, bond or otherwise discharge any final judgment or order for the payment of money in excess of $100,000,000 (to the extent not paid or covered by independent third-party insurance as to which the applicable insurer has been notified of such

 (l) Change of Control. A Change

 (m) Permitted Intercreditor Agreements. The Borrower or any other Loan Party shall contest, or support

the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Majority Lenders, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Aggregate Commitments, and thereupon the Aggregate Commitments shall terminate
immediately, (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of
the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other Secured Obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, shall become due and payable immediately, without
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower and (iii) require cash collateral for the LC Exposure in accordance with Section 2.04(j) hereof; and in case of

 131 

 SECTION 7.03 Right to Cure PV-9
Coverage Ratio. 
 (a) In the event that the Borrower fails to comply with Section 6.04(c) as of the last day
of any Fiscal Quarter during an Interim Investment Grade Period (such Fiscal Quarter, a “Cure Quarter”), the Borrower may, within 45 days after the end of such Fiscal Quarter (such period, the “Cure Period”), cure
such failure by (i) prepaying the Loans (with an accompanying, dollar-for-dollar reduction in Commitments pursuant to Section 2.07(b)),
(ii) prepaying any other secured Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Loan Party that is secured by a Lien on all or any portion of the Collateral (in the case of revolving Indebtedness, with an accompanying, dollar-for-dollar permanent reduction in commitments thereunder) or (iii) undertake a combination of clauses (i) and (ii) (the Borrower’s rights under this
Section 7.03(a) are referred to herein as the “Cure Right”). If, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the preceding sentence and a recalculation of the
PV-9 Coverage Ratio after giving effect to such transactions, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with Section 6.04(c), then the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied
Section 6.04(c) as of the last day of the applicable Cure Quarter with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply with the PV-9 Coverage Ratio on such date.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, until the expiration of the Cure Period, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred or be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of any failure to comply with
Section 6.04(c) on the last day of any Fiscal Quarter during any Interim Investment Grade Period (except to the extent that the Borrower has confirmed in writing during such Cure Period that it does not intend exercise the
Cure Right). 
 (b) None of the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall exercise the right to accelerate the Loans or terminate the
Commitments and none of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Secured Party shall exercise any right to foreclose on or take possession of the Collateral or exercise any other remedy pursuant to Section 7.02, the
other Loan Documents or applicable law prior to the end of Cure Period solely on the basis of an Event of Default having occurred and continuing as a result of the breach of Section 6.04(c) (except to the extent that the
Borrower has confirmed in writing that it does not intend exercise the Cure Right); provided, however, that the Cure Right shall not affect in any way the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the other Secured
Parties with respect to any other Default or Event of Default. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

The Administrative Agent 

SECTION 8.01 Authorization and Action. 

(a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement
and its successors and assigns to serve as the administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and each Lender and each Issuing Bank authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise
such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each
Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the
Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents. 
 (b) As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan
Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or
refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Majority Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless
and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and each Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good
faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to 

  
 132 

 
it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable Requirements of Law, including any action
that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in
violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided further that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Majority Lenders or the Required
Lenders, as applicable, prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the 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, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as
Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 

(c) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf
of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing: 
 (i) the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty
or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, Issuing Bank or holder of any other obligation other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote
any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Requirements of Law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in
connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; 
 (ii) where the Administrative Agent is required
or deemed to act as a trustee in respect of any Collateral over which a security interest has been created pursuant to a Loan Document the obligations and liabilities of the Administrative Agent to the Secured Parties in its capacity as trustee
shall be excluded to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law; and 
 (iii) nothing in this Agreement
or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account; 

(d) The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or
through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and
exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. 

  
 133 

 
The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any
sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the
selection of such sub-agent. 
 (e) None of any
Co-Syndication Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger shall have obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder
in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder. 
 (f) In case of the pendency of
any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any
Secured Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated)
by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 
 (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and
interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Disbursements and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks
and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.13, 2.15 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

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

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Lender, each Issuing Bank and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the
other Secured Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or
Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding. 

(g) The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and, except
solely to the extent of the Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party
beneficiary under any such provisions. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed
to the provisions of this Article. 

  
 134 

 SECTION 8.02 Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Indemnification,
Etc. 
 (a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to
be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (x) with the consent of or at the request of the Majority Lenders or Required Lenders, as applicable, (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as
shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to
be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any
Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with,
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof
(stating that it is a “notice of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, and 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 any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or
observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or
any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to
the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, or (vi) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the

 (c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its
holder until such promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel
(including counsel to the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants
or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection
with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an

Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other

otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof). 

  
 135 

 SECTION 8.03 Posting of Communications. 

(a) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and
the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on IntraLinksTM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic
transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”). 
 (b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary
web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved
Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a
deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic
medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the
Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution. 
 (c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE
COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND
EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY JOINT LEAD ARRANGER, ANY CO-SYNDICATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN
PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY
LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM IN THE ABSENCE OF ITS OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT (SUCH ABSENCE TO BE PRESUMED UNLESS
OTHERWISE DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A FINAL AND NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT). 
 (d) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank
agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan
Documents. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email
address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address. 

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

  
 136 

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

SECTION 8.04 The Administrative Agent Individually. With respect to its Commitment, Loans, and Letters of Credit, the Person
serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may
be. The terms “Issuing Banks”, “Lenders”, “Required Lenders”, “Majority Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual
capacity as a Lender, Issuing Bank or as one of the Required Lenders or Majority Lenders, as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the
financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the
Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks. 
 SECTION 8.05 Successor
Administrative Agent. 
 (a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the
Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right (with, so long as no Event of Default exists, the consent of the
Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within
30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with
an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to
the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. 
 (b) Notwithstanding paragraph
(a) of this Section, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the
retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any
Collateral Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and continue to be entitled to the
rights set forth in such Collateral Document and Loan Document, and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative
Agent is 

  
 137 

 
appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this Section (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further
action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (ii) the Majority Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be
made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and each Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness
of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan
Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of
them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (i) above. 

SECTION 8.06 Acknowledgments of Lenders and Issuing Banks. 

(a) Each Lender represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and that
it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Joint
Lead Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of
the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 (b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to
this Agreement on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to
and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date. 

(c) (i) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or Issuing Bank
that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender or Issuing Bank from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal,
interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender or Issuing Bank (whether or not known to such Person), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion
thereof), such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day
funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of
the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender
or Issuing Bank shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, 

  
 138 

 
defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments
received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Issuing Bank under this Section 8.06(c) shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (ii) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from
the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such
Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank
agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the
Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together
with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds
Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. 

(iii) The Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not
recovered from any Lender or any Issuing Bank that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to such amount and
(y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the
amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of satisfying such Obligations. 

(iv) Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.06(c) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the
Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document. 

SECTION 8.07 Collateral Matters. 

(a) Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.08 or with respect to a
Secured Party’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed
that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. 

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in respect of Banking Services the obligations under which
constitute Banking Services Obligations and no Swap Agreement the obligations under which constitute Secured Swap Obligations, will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with
the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such arrangement in respect of Banking Services or
Swap Agreement, as applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder,
subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph. 

  
 139 

 (c) The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in
its discretion, to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(b), (c),
(d), (e), (f), (h), (i) or (k). The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or
collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or
liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 
 SECTION 8.08
Credit Bidding. The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the
Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the
Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or
(b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable
Requirements of Law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Secured Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Majority Lenders on a
ratable basis (with Secured Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the
liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection
with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of
the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Secured Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale,
(iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or
vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Majority Lenders or their permitted assignees
under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the
Majority Lenders contained in Section 9.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account
of the relevant Secured Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle,
all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Secured Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a
result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Secured Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Secured Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Secured Obligations shall
automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with 

  
 140 

 
their original interest in such Secured Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Secured Obligations shall automatically
be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Secured Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or
vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in
or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by such credit bid. 
 SECTION 8.09 Certain ERISA Matters. 

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

and the conditions for exemptive relief thereunder are and will continue to be satisfied in connection therewith, 
 (iii)
(A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the
investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance
of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and

 (iv) such other
representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender. 

  
 141 

 (b) In addition, unless sub-clause
(i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause
(iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party
hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and each Joint Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower
or any other Loan Party, that: 
 (i) none of the Administrative Agent, or any Joint Lead Arranger or any of their respective
Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or
thereto), 
 (ii) the Person making the investment decision on behalf of such Lender with respect to the entrance into,
participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement is independent (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-21) and is a bank, an
insurance carrier, an investment adviser, a broker-dealer or other person that holds, or has under management or control, total assets of at least $50 million, in each case as described in 29 CFR §

responsible for exercising independent judgment in evaluating the transactions hereunder, and 
 (v) no fee or other
compensation is being paid directly to the Administrative Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger or any their respective Affiliates for investment advice (as opposed to other services) in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments
or this Agreement. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent and each Joint Lead Arranger hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not
undertaking to provide impartial investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that
such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans, the Letters of Credit

hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 

  
 143 

 Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other
communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function,
as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended
recipient, at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor;
provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent
at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient. 
 (c) The Borrower may change its address, facsimile number or
electronic mail address for notices and other communications hereunder by written notice to the Administrative Agent. Any other party hereto may change its address, facsimile number or electronic mail address for notices and other communications
hereunder by written notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and 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 9.02 Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any
other Loan Document 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, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies
that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.02(b), and
then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a
waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

(b) Subject to Section 2.12(b) and (c) and Section 9.02(e), 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 Majority Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of
the Majority Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.20, increase
the Borrowing Base during a Borrowing Base Period without the written consent of each non-Defaulting Lender, decrease, or maintain the Borrowing Base during a Borrowing Base Period without the consent of the
Required Lenders or modify Section 2.20 without the consent of each Lender; provided, however, that a Scheduled Redetermination may be postponed by the Required Lenders, (iii) 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 directly affected thereby, (iv) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of
any Loan or LC Disbursement (excluding mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 2.07(c)), 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 

  
 144 

 
expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (v) change Section 2.16(b) in a manner that would alter the
order of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (vi) change Section 2.16(d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required
thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definitions of “Applicable Percentage”, “Required Lenders” or “Majority 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, (viii) release the Borrower from
its obligations under the Loan Documents without the written consent of each Lender, (ix) except as provided in Section 9.15, release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their guarantee
obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranties, without the written consent of each Lender, (x) except as provided in clause (d) of this Section or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without
the written consent of each Lender or (xi) contractually subordinate (1) the Liens securing any of the Secured Obligations on all or substantially all of the Collateral to the Liens securing any other Indebtedness or other obligations or
(2) any Secured Obligations in contractual right of payment to any other debt or other obligations including any other Class of Loans hereunder, in any such case, without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby
(but not the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Secured Party) (provided, however, in no event shall this clause (xi) restrict any “debtor in possession” financing); provided further
that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank,
or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be (it being understood that any change to Section 2.18 shall require the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank); provided further that no such agreement
shall amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.04 or any letter of credit application and any bilateral agreement between the Borrower and any Issuing Bank regarding the respective rights and obligations between the
Borrower and such Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance of Letters of Credit without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank, respectively. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall be required
of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (vi) of Section 9.02(b) and then only in
the event such Defaulting Lender shall be directly affected by such amendment, waiver or other modification. 
 (d) Each of the Lenders, on
behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates that are Secured Parties, irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Loan Parties on any
Collateral (i) upon Security Termination, (ii) constituting property being Disposed of if the Borrower certifies to the Administrative Agent that the Disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the
Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) constituting property leased to the Borrower or any Subsidiary under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted
under this Agreement, (iv) if approved or authorized in writing pursuant to Section 9.02(b), (v) as required to effect any Disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII or (vi) upon the beginning of any Interim Investment Grade Period (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on the certificate delivered pursuant
to clause (a) of the definition of “Interim Investment Grade Period” as evidence of the beginning of any Interim Investment Grade Period). Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Secured
Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any Disposition, all of which shall continue to
constitute part of the Collateral. In addition, each of the Lenders, on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates that are Secured Parties, irrevocably authorizes the 

  
 145 

 
Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (i) to subordinate any Lien on any assets granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of
any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(h) or (ii) in the event that the Borrower shall have advised the Administrative Agent that, notwithstanding the use by the Borrower of commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain the consent of such holder (but without the requirement to pay any sums to obtain such consent) to permit the Administrative Agent to retain its Liens (on a subordinated basis as contemplated by clause (i)
above), the holder of such other Indebtedness requires, as a condition to the extension of such credit, that the Liens on such assets granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document be released, to release the Administrative
Agent’s Liens on such assets. Any execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent of documents in connection with any such release shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. 

(e) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender
directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement in accordance with
Section 2.17(b). 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.02,
if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower acting together identify any ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
shall be permitted to amend, modify or supplement such provision to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect, and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to
this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and
disbursements of one outside counsel, Sidley Austin LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent) in connection with the syndication and distribution (including via an Electronic System) of 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
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit
or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including
the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including
its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any
workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 
 (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and related expenses, including any reasonable legal expenses of one firm of counsel for all Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction and one firm of
regulatory counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, in each case for the Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest (as reasonably determined by an indemnified party), one additional firm of
counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the 

  
 146 

 
affected Indemnitees similarly situated, taken as a whole, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery
of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder 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 thereof (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank 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), (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, whether brought by a
third party or by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, 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 (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (y) any material
breach of the express obligations of such Indemnitee under the Loan Documents pursuant to a claim initiated by any Loan Party or (z) any dispute solely between or among Indemnitees (not arising as a result of any act or omission by the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates), other than claims against any Lender in its capacity as, or in fulfilling its role as, the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank, a Joint Lead Arranger or any similar role under the Loan Documents. This
Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim. 

(c) Each Lender severally agrees to pay any amount required to be paid by the Borrower under paragraph (a) or (b) of this
Section 9.03 to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each, an “Agent Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by
the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Applicable Percentage in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought
after the date upon which the Aggregate Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Applicable Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent
Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action
taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in
this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 (d) No
Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), except to the extent that
such damages have resulted from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment). 

  
 147 

 (e) To the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, no party hereto shall assert,
or permit any of its Affiliates or Related Parties to assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against each such other Person on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or
actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds
thereof; provided that nothing contained in this paragraph (e) shall limit the indemnification obligations of the Borrower set forth in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.03, including the
Borrower’s obligation to indemnify each Indemnitee for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of the matters described in clauses
(i), (ii) and (iii) of such paragraph (b). 
 (f) All amounts due under this Section shall be paid promptly
after written demand therefor. 
 SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this
Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues
any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders and, for
purposes of Section 9.20, the administrative agent under each Existing Credit Agreement) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons (other than an
Ineligible Institution) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) of: 
 (A) the Borrower; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any
such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided further that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an
assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; 

(B) the Administrative Agent; 

(C) each Issuing Bank; and 

(D) the Swingline Lender. 

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

  
 148 

 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a
Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as
of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no
such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (B) each partial
assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans; 
 (C)
the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an
Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with (unless waived by the Administrative Agent) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, such fee to be
paid by either the assigning Lender or the assignee Lender or shared between such Lenders; 
 (D) the assignee, if it shall
not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its affiliates and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the
assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable Requirements of Law, including Federal and state securities laws; and 

(E) no assignment shall be permitted if, as of the date thereof, any event or circumstance exists which would result in the
Borrower being obligated to pay any greater amount hereunder to the assignee than the Borrower is obligated to pay to the assigning Lender. 

For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the terms “Approved Fund” and “Ineligible Institution”
have the following meanings: 
 “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making,
purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate
of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
 “Ineligible Institution” means (a) a natural person, (b) a
Defaulting Lender or its Lender Parent, (c) the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates, or (d) a company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or
relative(s) thereof. 

  
 149 

 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned
by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this
Section 9.04. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and
the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive
absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or
(y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are
participant, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such
assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the
assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.04(d) or (e), 2.05(b), 2.16(e), 2.21(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no
obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for
purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c) Any Lender may, without the
consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible Institution, in all or a portion of
such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged;
(B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument 

  
 150 

 
may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to
Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements
and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.15(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.15(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender))
to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of
Sections 2.16 and 2.17 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.13 or
2.15, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant
acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be
subject to Section 2.16(d) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain
a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant
Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any
Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in
registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as
Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or
assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having
jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 SECTION 9.05 Survival. All covenants,
agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have
been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents 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 Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full
force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as
the Aggregate Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and
effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Aggregate Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or any provision hereof or thereof. 

  
 151 

 SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

 (a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall be
deemed an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead
Arrangers or the Lenders constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as
provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken
together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. 

(b) Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any
document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 9.01), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to
this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means
that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution,”
“signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the
keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic
Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided further without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic

 SECTION 9.07 Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

SECTION 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates
is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final and in whatever currency denominated) at any time
held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor against any of and all of the Obligations held by such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their
respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, Issuing Bank, or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a
branch office or Affiliate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such
right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.18 and, pending such payment, shall be
segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent
a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such
setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other
rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
 SECTION 9.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. 

(a) This Agreement and any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement (whether arising in contract, tort or
otherwise) shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 
 (b) Except as set forth in the
immediately following sentence, each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or
otherwise, against any other party hereto or any Related Party of any other party hereto in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the Transactions, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting
in New York County, Borough of Manhattan, or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the
jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may (and any such claims, cross-claims or third party claims brought against the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties may

action, litigation 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 or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that any
Credit Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its Properties in the courts of any jurisdiction (1) for the purposes of enforcing a judgment,
(2) in connection with exercising remedies against the Collateral in a jurisdiction in which such Collateral is located or (3) to the extent the courts referred to in the preceding sentence do not have jurisdiction over such legal action
or proceeding or the parties or property subject thereto. 
 (c) Each party hereto 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 or any other Loan Document in any court
referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such
court. 
 (d) Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in
Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

SECTION 9.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF
LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR
ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING
WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

SECTION 9.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only,
are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank 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
(including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) or as may be required by applicable Requirements of Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process, in which case such Person shall, except with
respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental or bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable Requirements of Law,
promptly notify the Borrower of such disclosure, (iii) to any other party to this Agreement, (iv) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this 

  
 154 

 
Agreement or any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (v) subject
to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement,
(B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations or (C) to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower and its
obligations, (vi) with the consent of the Borrower or (vii) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent,
any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or (viii) on a confidential basis to (x) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the transactions
hereunder or (y) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the transactions hereunder. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means
all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a
nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower and other than information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry;
provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the Effective Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential; provided further that (notwithstanding the foregoing) no
such nonpublic information which contains projections or forecasts with respect to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates shall be disclosed, disseminated or otherwise made available pursuant to clause (vii) above. 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. 
 EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN
THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING PARAGRAPH FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND
CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS. 
 ALL INFORMATION,
INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER, ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS
ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW. 

SECTION 9.13 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the Patriot Act hereby notifies each Loan Party
that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow
such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. 

  
 155 

 SECTION 9.14 Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other
Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable Requirements of Law can be
perfected only by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative
Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions. 

SECTION 9.15 Subsidiary Guarantors. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (or would result from
such release), if (i) all of the Equity Interests of a Subsidiary Guarantor that is owned by the Borrower or a Subsidiary is Disposed of in a transaction or transactions permitted by this Agreement, (ii) any Subsidiary Guarantor no longer
constitutes a Borrowing Base Period Required Guarantor during any Borrowing Base Period or (iii) during any Interim Investment Grade Period, immediately after giving effect to the simultaneous release of any other Guarantee by such Subsidiary
Guarantor, any Subsidiary Guarantor is not an Other Indebtedness Obligor, then, in each case, promptly following the Borrower’s written request, the Administrative Agent shall execute a release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary
Guaranty. In connection with any release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender to) execute and deliver to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s expense, all documents that the
Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 9.16 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate
applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable Requirements of Law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the
“Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder,
together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of
this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the
Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 
 SECTION 9.17 No Fiduciary Duty,
etc. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations under the Loan Documents except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents and in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the
transaction contemplated therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Borrower or any other person. The Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of
fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party is advising the Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment,
accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. The Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters to the extent it deems appropriate and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and
appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower with respect thereto. 

  
 156 

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

In addition, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party and its
affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which the Borrower may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and
otherwise. No Credit Party will use confidential information obtained from the Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other relationships with the Borrower in connection with the performance by such Credit
Party of services for other companies, and no Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. The Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the
Loan Documents, or to furnish to the Borrower, confidential information obtained from other companies. 
 SECTION 9.18
Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any
such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and
consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 
 (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an the applicable
Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and 

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 

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

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected
Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such
liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 
 (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in
connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority. 
 SECTION 9.19 Flood
Insurance Regulations. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, in no event is any Building (as defined in the applicable Flood Laws) or Manufactured (Mobile) Home (as defined in the applicable
Flood Laws) included in the definition of “Mortgaged Property” and no Building or Manufactured (Mobile) Home is hereby encumbered by this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

  
 157 

 SECTION 9.20 Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the
Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the
parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
(together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regime”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and
any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States). 

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

SECTION 9.21 Authorization to Enter into Permitted Intercreditor Agreements. Each Lender hereunder hereby authorizes and instructs
the Administrative Agent to enter into Permitted Intercreditor Agreements from time to time as Administrative Agent and on behalf of such Lender. 

SECTION 9.22 Amendment and Restatement of Existing Credit Agreement. 

(a) It is the intent of the parties hereto that, (i) from and after the Effective Date, this Agreement shall re-evidence the Borrower’s obligations and indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement, (ii) this Agreement is entered into in substitution for, and not in payment of, the obligations and indebtedness
of the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement, (iii) this Agreement is in no way intended to constitute a novation of any of the Borrower’s obligations and indebtedness which were evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents (including any fee letters or Notes delivered in connection therewith). 
 (b) As a result of the transition to
SOFR with respect to the interest rates affecting the Loans, the Borrower has prepaid all Loans made under the Existing Credit Agreement with proceeds of Loans made hereunder on the Effective Date and each Lender waives any notice of prepayment
required to be delivered under the Existing Credit Agreement with respect to such prepayment. 

  
 158 

 SECTION 9.23 Investment Grade Date Changeover. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, and the Swingline Lender from time to time agree that, upon the occurrence of the Investment Grade Date, this Agreement,
including Schedule 1.01A hereto, shall automatically be amended in its entirety to read as set forth on Exhibit C hereof (such amendment, the “Investment Grade Date Changeover”). Promptly after the occurrence of the Investment
Grade Date Changeover, the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide notice thereof to the Borrower, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender (provided that failure by the Administrative Agent to provide such notice on a
timely basis shall not affect the validity of the Investment Grade Date Changeover). The Borrower shall, and shall cause each Loan Party to, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Administrative Agent such documents,
agreements, instruments, forms and notices, and will take or cause to be taken such further actions, which the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to give effect to the Investment Grade Date Changeover.

business appointed for it, or, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any such proceeding or appointment or has had any
order for relief in such proceeding entered in respect thereof; provided that a Bankruptcy Event shall not result solely by virtue of any ownership interest, or the acquisition of any ownership interest, in such Person by a Governmental
Authority or instrumentality thereof, unless such ownership interest results in or provides such Person with immunity from the jurisdiction of courts within the United States or from the enforcement of judgments or writs of attachment on its assets
or permits such Person (or such Governmental Authority or instrumentality) to reject, repudiate, disavow or disaffirm any contracts or agreements made by such Person; provided further that, for so long as it is required by law or regulation

Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to Section 2.12(b). 

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

 (1) the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR;

 (2) the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the
Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time in the United
States and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment. 

  
 4 

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

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted
Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Interest Period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive
or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for
calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date and/or (ii) any
evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for
syndicated credit facilities denominated in Dollars at such time. 
 “Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with
respect to any Benchmark Replacement and/or any Term Benchmark Loan, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Alternate Base Rate,” the definition of “Business Day”, the
definition of “U.S. Government Securities Business Day”, the definition of “Interest Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or
continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower) decides may be appropriate to
reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that
adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as
the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower) decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents). 

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means, with respect to any Benchmark, the earliest to occur of the following events with respect
to such then-current Benchmark: 
 (1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the
definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published
component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 

(2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the first
date on which such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) has been determined and announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) to be no longer
representative; provided that such non-representativeness will be determined by reference to the most recent statement or publication referenced in such clause (3) and even if
any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) continues to be provided on such date. 

  
 5 

 For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement
Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark
Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect
to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof). 
 “Benchmark
Transition Event” means, with respect to any Benchmark, the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to such then-current Benchmark: 

(1) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published
component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of
such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); 

(2) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or
the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the NYFRB, the CME Term SOFR Administrator, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution
authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), in each case which
states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such
statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or
the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer, or as of a specified future date will no longer be, representative. 

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public
statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof). 

“Benchmark Unavailability Period” means, with respect to any Benchmark, the period (if any) (x) beginning
at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date pursuant to clauses (1) or (2) of that definition has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced such then-current Benchmark for all purposes
hereunder and under any Loan Document in accordance with Section 2.12 and (y) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan
Document in accordance with Section 2.12.

presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of
this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank,

nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make
any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to
any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing
shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to
the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with
the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to
have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with
the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary,
or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents regarding Letters of
Credit, including this Section 2.04, shall survive after the Maturity Date and termination of this Agreement for so long as any LC Exposure exists. 

(g) Disbursement Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, within the time period stipulated by the terms and conditions of such Letter of
Credit (or if no such time period is so stipulated, promptly), examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. After such examination, each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and
the Borrower by telephone, facsimile transmission or electronic mail (and, in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed by facsimile or electronic mail) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC
Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 

(h) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank 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 a rate per annum equal to (i) for any day prior to the date on which such payment by the Borrower is due in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section, the Federal Funds Effective Rate and
(ii) thereafter, the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans plus 2%. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of
payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

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

(i) Any Issuing Bank may be terminated at any time upon not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice by
the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such termination of an Issuing Bank. After the termination of an Issuing Bank hereunder, such Issuing Bank shall remain a party
hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such termination, but shall not be required to amend, renew or
extend any such Letter of Credit or to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

  
 35 

 (ii) Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective,
the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.10(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall
have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term
“Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such successor in its capacity as an Issuing Bank. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the
rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to amend, renew or extend any such Letter of Credit or to issue
additional Letters of Credit. 
 (iii) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, any Issuing
Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with
Section 2.04(i)(ii) above. 
 (j) Cash Collateralization. If the Borrower is required to deposit cash
collateral pursuant to Section 2.09 or 7.02, it will establish on or prior to such date, and thereafter maintain so long as any Letter of Credit is outstanding or any amount is payable to any Issuing Bank or the
Lenders in respect of any Letter of Credit, a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the “LC Collateral Account”) at the Administrative Agent’s office at the address
specified pursuant to Section 9.01, in the name of the Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, and in which the Borrower shall have
no interest. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, a security interest in all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in
and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the LC Collateral Account, to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the
LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit of JPMorgan having a maturity not exceeding 30 days. Moneys in the LC Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements made by
the Issuing Banks for which they have not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the Total LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans
has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposures representing greater than 50% of the Total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral
hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the
Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.09, such amount shall be returned to the Borrower to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Total Credit
Exposure would not exceed the Aggregate Commitments and no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The Administrative Agent agrees that when all Obligations have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit have expired or
been terminated, the Administrative Agent will deliver all remaining funds in the LC Collateral Account to the Borrower (or such other Person as is entitled thereto under applicable 

  
 36 

 
Requirements of Law). If the Administrative Agent determines that any Person other than the Borrower is entitled to such remaining funds, the Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to
give the Borrower notice of such determination in advance of delivering such funds to any other Person, but the Administrative Agent shall have no liability for the failure to deliver such notice. 

(k) Designation of Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, designate as additional Issuing Banks one or more Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Lender of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement (an
“Issuing Bank Agreement”), which shall be in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, shall set forth the LC Issuance Limit of such Lender and shall be executed by such Lender, the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent and, from and after the effective date of such Issuing Bank Agreement, (i) such Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and
(ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such Lender in its capacity as an Issuing Bank. 

(l) Qualifying Acquired Letters of Credit. On each Acquisition Closing Date, each applicable Qualifying Acquired Letter of Credit shall
be deemed to have been issued as a Letter of Credit under this Agreement by the applicable Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have granted to each of the Lenders, and each Lender shall
be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have acquired from such Issuing Bank, a participation (on the terms specified in this Section 2.04) in such Qualifying Acquired Letter of Credit equal to such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Qualifying Acquired Letters of Credit pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Aggregate Commitments, and that each payment by a Lender in respect of such participations shall be made without any
offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 
 (m) Issuing Bank Agreements. Unless otherwise requested by the
Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) promptly following the end of each calendar month, the aggregate amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding at the end of such month,
(ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank 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 Letter 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), it being understood that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any
issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that it is then permitted under this Agreement,
(iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit, the date of such payment under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such payment, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails
to reimburse any payment under any Letter of Credit required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such payment and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the
Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. 
 (n) Letters of Credit Issued for Account of Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a
Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder supports any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, or states that a Subsidiary is the “account party,” “applicant,” “customer,” “instructing
party,” or the like of or for such Letter of Credit, and without derogating from any rights of the applicable Issuing Bank (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of
Credit, the Borrower (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder 

  
 37 

 
for such Letter of Credit (including to reimburse any and all drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for the account of the Borrower and (ii) irrevocably
waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters
of Credit for its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries. 

SECTION 2.05 Funding of Borrowings. 

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds
by 2:00 p.m., 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 2.20. Except in respect of the provisions of this Agreement covering the reimbursement of Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly remitting the amounts
so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in
Section 2.04(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank. 
 (b) Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing (or, in the case of any Borrowing of ABR Loans, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender
will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with
paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing
available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such
amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the
Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to
the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed
to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 2.06 Interest Elections. 

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Term Benchmark
Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing,
may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders
holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be
converted or continued. 

  
 38 

 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent of such election by telephone, facsimile transmission or electronic mail by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type
resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile transmission or electronic mail to the
Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by the Borrower. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section shall not be construed to permit the Borrower to elect an Interest Period for Term Benchmark Loans
that does not comply with Section 2.02(d). 
 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall
specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which
such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant
to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 

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

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing, a Term Benchmark Borrowing or an RFR Loan; and 

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect
to such election, which Interest Period shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 
 If any such Interest
Election Request requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details
thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election
Request with respect to a Term Benchmark Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR
Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is
continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Term Benchmark Borrowing and RFR Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto. 
 SECTION 2.07 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. 

(a) Scheduled Termination of Commitments. Unless previously terminated, the Aggregate Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

  
 39 

 (b) Voluntary Termination and Reduction of Commitments. 

(i) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Aggregate Commitments; provided that
(i) each reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $10,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent
prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.09, the Total Credit Exposure would exceed the Aggregate Commitments. 

(ii) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments under
paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) 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 Aggregate
Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or other transactions specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be made ratably
among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Aggregate Commitments. 
 SECTION 2.08 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of
Debt. 
 (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender,
the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date and (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity
Date and the fifth Business Day after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Loan is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding and the proceeds of any such Revolving Loan shall be
applied by the Administrative Agent to repay any Swingline Loans outstanding. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual
practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the
Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum
received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made
in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the
failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the Obligations. 

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

  
 40 

 SECTION 2.09 Prepayment of Loans. 

(a) Voluntary Prepayments. 

(i) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to
prior notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.09(a)(ii). 
 (ii) The Borrower shall
notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender) by telephonic notice (promptly confirmed by hand delivery, facsimile transmission or electronic mail of such request) of any prepayment under
this Section 2.09(a), (i) in the case of prepayment of a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the
date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment, or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 1:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of
prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Aggregate Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked
in accordance with Section 2.07. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing
shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. 

(b) Mandatory Prepayments upon Commitment Terminations and Reductions. If, after giving effect to any termination or reduction of the
Aggregate Commitments pursuant to Section 2.07(a) or (b), the Total Credit Exposure exceeds the Aggregate Commitments (as reduced), then (A) the Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans and/or Swingline Loans
on the date of such termination or reduction in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and (B) if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans as a result of LC Exposure, the Borrower shall cash
collateralize such remaining excess as provided in Section 2.04(j). The Borrower shall be obligated to make such prepayment and/or deposit of such cash collateral on the date of the effectiveness of such termination or
reduction. 
 (c) Application of Prepayments. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the
prepaid Borrowing. 
 (d) Interest and Break Funding Payments to Accompany Prepayments. Prepayments shall be accompanied by
(i) accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.11 and (ii) break funding payments pursuant to Section 2.14. 

  
 41 

 SECTION 2.10 Fees. 

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the
Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Unused Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date but excluding the date on which the Aggregate Commitments terminate. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in
arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Aggregate Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that any commitment fees
accruing after the date on which the Aggregate Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the
first day but excluding the last day). 
 (b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender
in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans on the
average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such
Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, which
shall accrue at a rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the Total LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the
period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank,
as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees and commissions with respect to the issuance, amendment, cancellation, negotiation, transfer, presentment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.
Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third (3rd) Business Day following
such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Aggregate Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the
Aggregate Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (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) 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) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in
immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be
refundable under any circumstances. 
 SECTION 2.11 Interest. 

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable
Rate. 
 (b) The Loans comprising each Term Benchmark Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for the Interest Period
in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (c) Each RFR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted
Daily Simple RFR plus the Applicable Rate. 

  
 42 

 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
Default, the Majority Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Majority Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 9.02 requiring the consent of
“each Lender directly affected thereby” for reductions in interest rates), declare that (i) the principal amount of all Loans shall bear interest at 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loans as provided in the preceding
paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other overdue amount outstanding hereunder, such amount shall accrue interest at 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, during the existence of any Specified
Event of Default, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be applicable to all Loans and other amounts outstanding hereunder automatically without any election or action on the part of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender. 
 (e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such
Loan and upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or
prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and
(iii) in the event of any conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(f) 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). All interest hereunder on any Loan shall be computed on a daily basis based upon the outstanding principal amount of such Loan as of the applicable date of determination. The applicable Alternate
Base Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Term SOFR Rate, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR or Daily Simple SOFR shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

SECTION 2.12 Alternate Rate of Interest. 

(a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this
Section 2.12, if: 
 (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive and binding absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR Rate
(including, without limitation, because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable
Adjusted Daily Simple RFR or Daily Simple SOFR for an RFR Loan; or 
 (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the
Majority Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing that the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for the applicable Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of
making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period, or (B) at any time, the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple RFR for an RFR Loan will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or
maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing; 

  
 43 

 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders through any
Electronic System as provided in Section 9.01 as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no
longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.06 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of
Section 2.03, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark
Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for (1) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is not also the subject of
Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above or (2) an ABR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR also is the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above. Furthermore, if any
Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.12(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such
Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower
delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.06 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on
the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted
Daily Simple RFR is not also the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR also is the subject of Section 2.12(a)(i)
or (ii) above, on such day, and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute an ABR Loan. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark
Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of
“Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark
settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the
definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00
p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders. 

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

(d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event,
(ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to
clause (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any 

  
 44 

 
Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this
Section 2.12, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take
or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except,
in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.12 or in any related definitions. 
 (e)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Rate)
and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory
supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the
definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to
clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or
will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such
previously removed tenor. 
 (f) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the
Borrower may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing and any conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the
Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (i) with respect to any Term Benchmark Borrowing, an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is not the subject of a
Benchmark Transition Event or (ii) an ABR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an
Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date
of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented
pursuant to this Section 2.12, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the
Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is the subject of a
Benchmark Transition Event, on such day and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute an ABR Loan. 

SECTION 2.13 Increased Costs. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

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

  
 45 

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

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in
clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits,
reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such
other Recipient of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder,
whether of principal, interest or otherwise, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other
Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines
in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such
Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such
Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such
Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank
or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Borrower
and shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of such amount or amounts. Any Lender’s determination of any such amount or amounts shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) and substantially consistent with
similarly situated customers of such Lender under agreements having provisions similar to Section 2.13(a) or 2.13(b), as applicable, after consideration of such factors as such Lender then reasonably determines to be
relevant. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof. 

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

  
 46 

 SECTION 2.14 Break Funding Payments. 

(a) With respect to Term Benchmark Loans, in the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the
last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.09), (ii) the conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on
the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be
revoked under Section 2.09 and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (iv) the assignment of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the
Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by any Lender affected by any such event, compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable
to such event. 
 (b) If any Lender elects to request compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Lender
shall deliver to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the amount of such compensation and the basis for such compensation (such certificate to be conclusive absent manifest error). The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on
any such certificate within 15 days after receipt of such demand. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Section 2.14 will not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 2.15 shall govern. 

SECTION 2.15 Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be
made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Requirements of Law. If any applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction
or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been
made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or
withholding been made. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes. 

(c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to
this Section 2.15, such Loan Party 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. 

  
 47 

 (d) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall indemnify each
Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or
required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative
Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without
limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register
and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source
against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e). 
 (f) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any
Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Sections 2.15(f)(ii)(A), 2.15(f)(ii)(B) and 2.15(f)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any
material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii)
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person: 
 (A) any Lender
that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax; 

  
 48 

 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon
the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (1) in the
case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS
Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal
withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other
income” article of such tax treaty; 
 (2) executed copies of IRS
Form W-8ECI; 
 (3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the
exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank”
within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in
Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or 
 (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the
beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or
Exhibit D-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a
partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (C) any Foreign
Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender
under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from
or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the
withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

  
 49 

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

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

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.15 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15), it shall pay to the
indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect
to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no
event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification
payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems
confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this
Section 2.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 
 (i) Defined Terms. For purposes of this
Section 2.15, the term “Lender” includes each Issuing Bank and the term “applicable Requirements of Law” includes FATCA. 

SECTION 2.16 Payments Generally; Allocations of Proceeds; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of
Set-offs. 
 (a) Except as provided in Section 2.04(e), the Borrower
shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise)
prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts 

  
 50 

 
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 10 South Dearborn Street, Chicago, Illinois 60603, except payments to be made directly to any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein
and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it
for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business
Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. 

(b) Any proceeds realized from the liquidation or other disposition of collateral or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent
(i) not constituting (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Borrower) or (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in
accordance with Section 2.09) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Majority Lenders so direct, shall be applied as follows: 

(i) first, pro rata to pay that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expense reimbursements and
other amounts payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such and each Issuing Bank in its capacity as such; 

(ii) second, pro rata to pay that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expense reimbursements and
other amounts payable (other than principal and interest) to the Lenders; 
 (iii) third, pro rata to pay accrued
interest on the Loans; 
 (iv) fourth, pro rata to the payment or prepayment of principal of the Loans and
unreimbursed LC Disbursements; 
 (v) fifth, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to 103% of the
aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations; and 

(vi) sixth, to the payment of any other Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Credit Party. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower, or unless a Default is in existence,
none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Term Benchmark Loan, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Term Benchmark Loan or (b) in the event,
and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans and, in any event, the Borrower shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.14. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall
have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Obligations. 

(c) The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge any deposit account of the Borrower maintained with the
Administrative Agent for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder. 

  
 51 

 (d) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of
set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements (if applicable) or Swingline Loans resulting in such
Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements (if applicable) and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the
Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements (if applicable) 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 Loans and participations in LC Disbursements (if applicable)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 the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as
consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of
this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Requirements of Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may
exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank 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 the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed
to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

(f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(d) or
(e), 2.05(b), 2.16(e), 2.20 or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative
Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully
paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account over which the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive control as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such
Section (in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion). 

SECTION 2.17 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13, or the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes
or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, 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 

  
 52 

 
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and
(ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any
such designation or assignment. 
 (b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13,
(ii) the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, (iii) any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, (iv) any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender or (v) the Person serving as the Administrative Agent has received a written notice of removal in its capacity as Administrative Agent
from the Majority Lenders or the Borrower pursuant to Article VIII, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate,
without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.13 or
2.15) and obligations under the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) and such Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and
Assumption in connection therewith (provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption shall not render such assignment invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register), provided that
(i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or
delayed, (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 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, 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. An assignment and delegation
required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee, and the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not be a party
thereto (it being understood and agreed that such Lender shall not be deemed to make the representations and warranties in such Assignment and Assumption if such Lender has not executed such Assignment and Assumption). 

SECTION 2.18 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) commitment fees shall
cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a); 

(b) the Commitment and Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Majority Lenders have taken
or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided, that, except as otherwise provided in
Section 9.02, this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender
directly affected thereby; 

  
 53 

 (c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure (other than (A) the portion of
such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term and (B) any portion thereof with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by
Section 2.04(d) or (e)) of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated (effective as of the date such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the non-Defaulting Lenders in
accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (for the purposes of such reallocation, such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment shall be disregarded in determining the non-Defaulting Lenders’
respective Applicable Percentages), but only to the extent that (X) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure does not exceed the total of
all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments, (Y) after giving effect to any such reallocation, no non-Defaulting Lender’s Credit Exposure shall exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and (Z) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time; 

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected,
the Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days following written notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize, for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Banks, the
Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.04(j) for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is outstanding; 
 (iii)
if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any participation fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant
to Section 2.10(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; 

(iv) if any portion of the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated
pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages after giving effect to such reallocation; and 

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant
to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all participation fees payable under Section 2.10(b)
with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Banks, ratably based on the portion of such LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each such Issuing Bank, until and to the extent
that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above; and 

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank
shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.18(c), and Swingline Exposure related to any such newly made Swingline Loan and
participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.18(c)(i) (and such
Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 

  
 54 

 If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action
with respect to a Lender Parent shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) any Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations
under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless
the Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

 In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Defaulting
Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposures of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment, and on such date
such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable
Percentage. 
 The rights and remedies against, and with respect to, a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.18
are in addition to, and cumulative and not in limitation of, all other rights and remedies that the Administrative Agent and each Lender, each Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Loan Party may at any time have against, or with respect to, such
Defaulting Lender. 
 SECTION 2.19 Increase in Aggregate Commitments. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may, from time to time, cause an increase in the Aggregate Commitments
(any such increase, an “Incremental Increase”) by permitting one or more existing Lenders to increase their respective Commitments (each, an “Increasing Lender”) and/or by causing a Person that at such time is not a
Lender to become a Lender (an “Additional Lender”). No Lender’s Commitment shall be increased without such Lender’s prior written consent (which consent may be given or withheld in such Lender’s sole and absolute
discretion). No consent of any Lender (other than the Lenders participating in the Incremental Increase) shall be required for any Incremental Increase. 

(b) Any Incremental Increase shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have been given written notice of such Incremental Increase; 

(ii) such Incremental Increase shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $25,000,000
unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; 
 (iii) after giving effect to such Incremental Increase, the Aggregate
Commitments shall not exceed the Maximum Credit Amount; 
 (iv) no Additional Lender shall be added as a party hereto without
the written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), 
 (v)
the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent, for payment to any Increasing Lender or Additional Lender, as applicable, any fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent
and such Lender or Lenders; 

  
 55 

 (vi) such Incremental Increase shall be on the exact same terms and pursuant
to the exact same documentation applicable to this Agreement (other than with respect to any arrangement, structuring, upfront or other fees or discounts payable in connection with such Incremental Increase) (provided that the Applicable Rate
may be increased to be consistent with that for such Incremental Increase); 
 (vii) on the proposed date of the
effectiveness of such Incremental Increase, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a
certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by an Authorized Officer on the behalf of the Borrower; 
 (viii) the
Administrative Agent shall have received such documents and opinions consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date as to the organizational power and authority of the Borrower to borrow hereunder after giving effect to such Incremental
Increase as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request; and 
 (ix) each Increasing Lender or Additional Lender shall
execute and deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent customary documentation (any such documentation, an “Incremental Agreement”) implementing such Incremental Increase. 

(c) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of one or more executed Incremental Agreements increasing the Commitments of Increasing Lenders
and/or adding Commitments from Additional Lenders as provided in this Section 2.19, (i) the Aggregate Commitments shall be increased automatically on the effective date set forth in such Incremental Agreements by the
aggregate amount indicated in such Incremental Agreements without further action by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks or any Lender, (ii) Schedule 2.01 shall be amended to add such Additional
Lender’s Commitment or to reflect the increase in the Commitment of an Increasing Lender, and the Applicable Percentages of the Lenders shall be adjusted accordingly to reflect the Incremental Increase of each Additional Lender and/or each
Increasing Lender, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall distribute to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each Lender the revised Schedule 2.01 which may be delivered or
furnished by using Electronic Systems in accordance with Section 9.01(b), (iv) any such Additional Lender shall be deemed to be a party in all respects to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents to which the Lenders are
a party, and (v) upon the effective date set forth in such Incremental Agreement, any such Lender party to the Incremental Agreement shall purchase a pro rata portion of the outstanding Loans (including Swingline Loans and participations in the
aggregate amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit) of each of the current Lenders such that each Lender (including any Additional Lender, if applicable) shall hold its respective Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Loans (and
participation interests in amounts available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit) as reflected in the revised Schedule 2.01 required by this Section 2.19. 

SECTION 2.20 Swingline Loans. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, from time to time during the Availability Period, the Swingline Lender agrees to
make Swingline Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender exceeding the Swingline
Commitment, (ii) the amount of the Swingline Lender’s Credit Exposure exceeding its Commitment or (iii) the Total Credit Exposure exceeding the Aggregate Commitments; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to
make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. 

  
 56 

 (b) To request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such
request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or electronic mail), not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a
Business Day), the deposit account of the Borrower to which funds shall be transferred by the Swingline Lender and the amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice
received from the Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make the requested Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit or wire transfer in immediately available funds to the deposit account of the Borrower specified on the
applicable notice (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.04(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank) by 4:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. 
 (c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent
require the Lenders to acquire participations in all or a portion of its Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the
Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, promptly upon receipt of such notice
from the Administrative Agent (and in any event, if such notice is received by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on a Business Day no later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on such Business Day and if received after 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on
a Business Day shall mean no later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the immediately succeeding Business Day), to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such
Swingline Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including
the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation
under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply,
mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any
participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline
Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any
such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear;
provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of
participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof. 

(d) The Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Swingline
Lender and the successor Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Swingline Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid interest accrued
for the account of the replaced Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of
the replaced Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to

  
 57 

 
any previous Swingline Lender, or to such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of the Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced
Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to its replacement, but shall not be required to
make additional Swingline Loans. 
 (e) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender may
resign as Swingline Lender at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Swingline Lender shall be replaced in accordance with
Section 2.20(d) above. 
 ARTICLE III 

Representations and Warranties 

The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that: 

SECTION 3.01 Organization; Powers. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are duly organized or validly formed, validly existing

the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have full power and authority to carry on their business as now conducted. 

SECTION 3.02 Authorization; Execution; Enforceability. Each Loan Party has the power and authority and legal right to execute and
deliver the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder and (in the case of the Borrower) to obtain the Credit Extensions made hereunder and to consummate the Transactions, and all such actions have been duly
authorized by proper organizational proceedings on the part of the applicable Loan Party. Each Loan Document has been duly and validly executed and delivered by or on behalf of each Loan Party that is a party thereto, and the Loan Documents to which
each Loan Party is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law, and obligations of good faith and fair dealing. 

SECTION 3.03 Financial Condition. 

(a) The consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2021 (which were heretofore delivered

Subsidiaries at such dates and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the periods then ended.

Material Adverse Effect, and no event or condition exists under which the Borrower is under an obligation to furnish a report to the Administrative Agent under Section 5.01(e) and which would reasonably be expected
(individually or in the aggregate) to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.11 No Conflict. Neither the execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is
a party, nor compliance with the provisions thereof nor the consummation of the Transactions will (a) breach or violate any applicable Requirement of Law, (b) conflict with or result in the breach or violation of any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose)

aggregate principal amount of all Priority Indebtedness secured by Liens permitted under Section 6.02(w) and outstanding at such time plus (iii) the aggregate amount of all obligations of the Borrower and its

 ARTICLE VIII 

The Administrative Agent 

SECTION 8.01 Authorization and Action. 

(a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement
and its successors and assigns to serve as the administrative agent under the Loan Documents and each Lender and each Issuing Bank authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby
authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may
have under such Loan Documents. 

  
 75 

 (b) As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents
(including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from
acting) upon the written instructions of the Majority Lenders, as applicable (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such
instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and each Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to
liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable
Requirements of Law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or
termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided further that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or
direction from the Majority Lenders, as applicable, prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the 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, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by
the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of
any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 

(c) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf
of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing: 
 (i) the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty
or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, Issuing Bank or holder of any other obligation other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote
any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Requirements of Law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in
connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and 
 (ii) nothing in this Agreement or any Loan
Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account; 

  
 76 

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

(e) None of any Co-Syndication Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger shall have obligations or duties
whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder. 

(f) In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective
of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC
Disbursements and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under
Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.13, 2.15 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

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

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Lender and each other Credit Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders or the other Credit Parties, to pay to the
Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent
to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank or to authorize the
Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding. 
 (g) The provisions of this
Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and, except solely to the extent of the Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of
the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions. Each Credit Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits
of the Guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article. 

  
 77 

 SECTION 8.02 Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Indemnification,
Etc. 
 (a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (x) with the consent of or at the request of the Majority Lenders, as applicable, (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be
presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any
Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with,
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof
(stating that it is a “notice of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, and 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 any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or
observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or
any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to
the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, or (vi) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on any
collateral. 
 (c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its
holder until such promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel
(including counsel to the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants
or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection
with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an
Issuing Bank, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance of the making of such
Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other
instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or
otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof). 

  
 78 

 SECTION 8.03 Posting of Communications. 

(a) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and
the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on IntraLinksTM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic
transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”). 
 (b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary
web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved
Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a
deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic
medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the
Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution. 
 (c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE
COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND
EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY JOINT LEAD ARRANGER, ANY CO-SYNDICATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN
PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY
LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM IN THE ABSENCE OF ITS OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT (SUCH ABSENCE TO BE PRESUMED UNLESS
OTHERWISE DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A FINAL AND NONAPPEALABLE JUDGMENT). 
 (d) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank
agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan
Documents. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email
address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address. 

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

  
 79 

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

SECTION 8.04 The Administrative Agent Individually. With respect to its Commitment, Loans, and Letters of Credit, the Person
serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may
be. The terms “Issuing Banks”, “Lenders”, “Majority Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, Issuing
Bank or as one of the Majority Lenders, as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for
and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to
the Lenders or the Issuing Banks. 
 SECTION 8.05 Successor Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and
the Borrower, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right (with, so long as no Event of Default exists, the consent of the Borrower, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring
Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New
York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of
the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative
Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. 
 (b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this
Section, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative
Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) the Majority Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent;
provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and
(B) all notices 

  
 80 

 
and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and each Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness
of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan
Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of
them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (i) above. 

SECTION 8.06 Acknowledgments of Lenders and Issuing Banks. 

(a) Each Lender represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and that
it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Joint
Lead Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of
the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 (b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to
this Agreement on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to
and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date. 

(c) (i) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or Issuing Bank
that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender or Issuing Bank from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal,
interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender or Issuing Bank (whether or not known to such Person), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion
thereof), such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day
funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of
the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender
or Issuing Bank shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the
Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Issuing Bank under this
Section 8.06(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 

  
 81 

 (ii) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby further agrees that if
it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its
Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment.
Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such
occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand
was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent
at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. 

(iii) The Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof)
are not recovered from any Lender or any Issuing Bank that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to such amount and
(y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the
amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of satisfying such Obligations. 

(iv) Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.06(c) shall survive the resignation or
replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan
Document.

 Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be
deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business
on the next business day for the recipient). Notices delivered through Electronic Systems, to the extent provided in paragraph (b) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (b). 

(b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders and each Issuing Bank hereunder may be delivered or furnished by using Electronic Systems
pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II to any Lender or Issuing Bank if such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable,
has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it

Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an

SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any
other Loan Document 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, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies
that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.02(b), and
then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a
waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

  
 85 

 (b) Subject to Section 2.12(b) and (c) and
Section 9.02(d), 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 Majority Lenders or by the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment 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 directly 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 directly affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.16(b) in a manner that would alter the order of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby,
(v) change Section 2.16(d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) change any of the provisions of this Section or
the definitions of “Applicable Percentage”, “Majority 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, (vii) release the Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) except as provided in
Section 9.14, release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their guarantee obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranties, without the written consent of each Lender and (ix) contractually subordinate any
Obligations in contractual right of payment to any other debt or other obligations including any other Class of Loans hereunder, in any such case, without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (but not the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender or Credit Party) (provided, however, in no event shall this clause (xi) restrict any “debtor in possession” financing); provided, however, that no such
agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, or the
Swingline Lender, as the case may be (it being understood that any change to Section 2.18 shall require the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank); provided further that no such agreement shall
amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.04 or any letter of credit application and any bilateral agreement between the Borrower and any Issuing Bank regarding the respective rights and obligations between the Borrower
and such Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance of Letters of Credit without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank, respectively. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall be required
of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification referred to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (v) of Section 9.02(b) and then
only in the event such Defaulting Lender shall be directly affected by such amendment, waiver or other modification. 
 (d) If, in
connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Majority Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary
Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.17(b). 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.02, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
acting together identify any ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend, modify or
supplement such provision to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect, and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. 

  
 86 

 SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges 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
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit

the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including
its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any
workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 
 (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and related expenses, including any reasonable legal expenses of one firm of counsel for all Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction and one firm of
regulatory counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, in each case for the Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest (as reasonably determined by an indemnified party), one additional firm of
counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the affected Indemnitees similarly situated, taken as a whole, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any
Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder 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 thereof (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank 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), (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, whether brought by a third party or
by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, 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 (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (y) any material breach of the express
obligations of such Indemnitee under the Loan Documents pursuant to a claim initiated by any Loan Party or (z) any dispute solely between or among Indemnitees (not arising as a result of any act or omission by the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or Affiliates), other than claims against any Lender in its capacity as, or in fulfilling its role as, the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank, a Joint Lead Arranger or any similar role under the Loan Documents. This
Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim. 

  
 87 

 (c) Each Lender severally agrees to pay any amount required to be paid by the Borrower under
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03 to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each, an
“Agent Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Applicable Percentage in effect on the date on which
indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Aggregate Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Applicable
Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after
the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to
herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such
Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

(d) No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through
telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), except to the extent that such damages have resulted from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnitee (as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment). 
 (e) To the extent permitted
by applicable Requirements of Law, no party hereto shall assert, or permit any of its Affiliates or Related Parties to assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against each such other Person on any theory of liability, for special,
indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the
Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing contained in this paragraph (e) shall limit the indemnification obligations of the Borrower set forth in
paragraph (b) of this Section 9.03, including the Borrower’s obligation to indemnify each Indemnitee for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages incurred by or asserted against
any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of the matters described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of such paragraph (b). 

(f) All amounts due under this Section shall be paid promptly after written demand therefor. 

SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this

respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights
and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans; 
 (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the

Law, including Federal and state securities laws; and 

  
 89

Defaulting Lender or its Lender Parent, (c) the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates, or (d) a company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or
relative(s) thereof. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under
this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits
of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall
be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. 

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the
Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest)
of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall
be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or
(y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are
participant, 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

  
 90 

 
written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the
information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.04(d) or (e),
2.05(b), 2.20(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in
full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 

(c) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible Institution, in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations; and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to
Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements
and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.15(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.15(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender))
to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of
Sections 2.16 and 2.17 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Sections 2.13 or 2.15, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in
Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such
Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16(d) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent
of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the
“Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a
Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit
or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such
Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent
(in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

  
 91 

 (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section shall not
apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such
Lender as a party hereto. 
 SECTION 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan
Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall
survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents 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 Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or
any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Aggregate Commitments have not expired or
terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Aggregate Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

 SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. 

(a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall be deemed
an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers or
the Lenders constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in
Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. 

(b) Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any
document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 9.01), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to
this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means
that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution,”
“signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the
keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic
Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided further without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic
Signature, the Administrative Agent and each 

  
 92 

 
of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party without further verification thereof and without
any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic signature and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower and each Loan Party hereby (i) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy
proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower and the Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed
signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (ii) the Administrative Agent and each of
the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such
Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record), (iii) waives any
argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document
and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (iv) waives any claim against any Related Parties of any Lender for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s
and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a
result of the failure of the Borrower and/or any Loan Party to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature. 

SECTION 9.07 Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular
provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 9.08 Right of
Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final and in whatever currency denominated) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any
Subsidiary Guarantor against any of and all of the Obligations held by such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, Issuing Bank, or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this
Agreement or any other Loan Documents and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch office or Affiliate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch office or Affiliate holding such deposit or
obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application
in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.18 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of
setoff. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective
Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and
application. 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.

preceding sentence do not have jurisdiction over such legal action or proceeding or the parties or property subject thereto.

 SECTION 9.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of
Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank 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

any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction relating to the Borrower
and its obligations or (C) to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (vi) with the consent of the Borrower or (vii) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as
a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or (viii) on a confidential basis to
(x) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the transactions hereunder or (y) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with

otherwise made available pursuant to clause (vii) above. 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.

 95 

 ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE
BORROWER, ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION

that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow
such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. 
 SECTION 9.14 Release of Subsidiary Guarantors. So
long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan Documents (or would result from such release), (i) if all of the Equity Interests of a Subsidiary Guarantor that is owned by the Borrower or a Subsidiary is sold or
otherwise Disposed of in a transaction or transactions not prohibited by this Agreement or (ii) in the event that, immediately after giving effect to the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiary Guaranty and any simultaneous
release of any other Guarantee by such Subsidiary Guarantor, all of the Indebtedness of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries is permitted under Section 6.03 (assuming for this purpose that all such Indebtedness is incurred at
such time), then, in each case, promptly following the Borrower’s written request, the Administrative Agent shall execute a release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guaranty. In connection with any release pursuant to this
Section, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender to) execute and deliver to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s expense, all documents that the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such
termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 9.15 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate
applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable Requirements of Law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the
“Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder,
together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of
this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at
the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 

  
 96 

 SECTION 9.16 No Fiduciary Duty, etc. The Borrower acknowledges and
agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations under the Loan Documents except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transaction contemplated therein and not
as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Borrower or any other person. The Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in
connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party is advising the Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters
in any jurisdiction. The Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters to the extent it deems appropriate and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated
hereby, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower with respect thereto. 
 The Borrower further
acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party, together with its Affiliates, is a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as
providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of
customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, the Borrower and other companies with which the Borrower may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any
securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit Party or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole
discretion. 
 In addition, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit
Party and its affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which the Borrower may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions
described herein and otherwise. No Credit Party will use confidential information obtained from the Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other relationships with the Borrower in connection with the
performance by such Credit Party of services for other companies, and no Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. The Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to the Borrower, confidential information obtained from other companies. 

SECTION 9.17 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any
Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 

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

  
 97 

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

SECTION 9.18 Amendment and Restatement of Existing Credit Agreement. 

(a) It is the intent of the parties hereto that, (i) from and after the Effective Date, this Agreement shall re-evidence the Borrower’s obligations and indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement, (ii) this Agreement is entered into in substitution for, and not in payment of, the obligations and indebtedness
of the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement, (iii) this Agreement is in no way intended to constitute a novation of any of the Borrower’s obligations and indebtedness which were evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents (including any fee letters or Notes delivered in connection therewith). 
 (b) As a result of the transition to
SOFR with respect to the interest rates affecting the Loans, the Borrower has prepaid all Loans made under the Existing Credit Agreement with proceeds of Loans made hereunder on the Effective Date and each Lender waives any notice of prepayment
required to be delivered under the Existing Credit Agreement with respect to such prepayment.

4.1 Number of Shares Available for Delivery. Subject to adjustment under Section 7, the Share Reserve as of the Effective Date

allocation by the Company (whether held by the Company, on the Company’s behalf or otherwise) or previously issued Shares reacquired by the Company on the open market or by private purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) the number of
Shares available for issuance hereunder shall not be reduced by Shares issued pursuant to Substitute Awards, and (2) Shares shall not be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the Plan with respect to any portion of an Award that is settled in
cash. 
 4.3 Share Counting Rules. The Committee will adopt reasonable counting procedures to ensure appropriate counting, avoid double-counting (as,
for example, in the case of tandem awards or Substitute Awards), and may make adjustments (to the extent permitted by applicable law) if the number of Shares actually delivered differs from the number of Shares previously counted in connection with
an Award. 
 4.4 Shares Available Under Acquired Plans. To the extent permitted by NYSE Listed Company Manual Section 303A.08, NASDAQ Listing
Rule 5635(c), or other applicable stock exchange rules, subject to applicable law, in the event that a company acquired by the Company, or with which the Company combines, has shares available under a
pre-existing plan approved by shareholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such
pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration
payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the number of Shares reserved and available for delivery in connection with Awards under the
Plan; provided, that, Awards using such available shares shall not be made after the date awards could have been made under the terms of such pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination,
and shall only be made to individuals who were not employed by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company immediately prior to such acquisition or combination. 

4.5 Minimum Vesting. No Award may be granted on terms that it shall vest earlier than the first anniversary of the date of grant; provided,
however, that the foregoing minimum vesting period shall not apply to (1) a Substitute Award that does not reduce or accelerate the vesting period of the award being replaced or assumed, or (2) Awards involving an aggregate number
of Shares that is less than 10% of the aggregate number of Shares that may be delivered in connection with Awards under this Plan or (3) as otherwise provided in Clause 7.2 below.  

4.6 Limitation on Awards to Non-Employee Directors. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
maximum value of any Awards granted to a non-employee director of the Company in any one calendar year, taken together with any cash fees paid to such non-employee
director during such calendar year in respect of the non-employee director’s services as a member of the Board during such year, shall not exceed $600,000 (calculating the value of any such Awards based
on the grant date fair value of such Awards for financial reporting purposes); provided, that, the Committee may make exceptions to this limit, except that the non-employee director receiving such
additional compensation may not participate in the decision to award such compensation.

	5.	 Restricted Share Units. 

5.1 General. Restricted Share Units may be granted to Eligible Persons in such form and having such terms and conditions as the Committee shall deem
appropriate, and which terms and conditions may deviate from the default terms and conditions set forth in the Plan. The provisions of separate Restricted Share Units shall be set out in separate RSU Agreements. RSU Agreements may vary for Eligible
Participants provided each complies with the terms and conditions contained herein. 
 5.2 Vesting. Restricted Share Units shall vest in such manner,
on such date or dates, and upon the achievement of performance or other conditions, in each case, as may be determined by the Committee and set out in an RSU Agreement. The vesting of a Restricted Share Unit shall occur only while the Participant is
employed by or rendering services to the Employing Entity, and all vesting shall cease upon a Participant’s Termination for any or no reason. Vesting shall not be suspended during any period of paid or unpaid leave of absence from the Employing
Entity by a Participant following which the Participant has a right to reinstatement, unless at the sole discretion of the Committee (to the extent permitted by applicable law), and shall automatically resume upon such Participant’s return to
active employment. 
 5.3 Settlement. Restricted Share Units shall be settled on the date or dates determined by the Committee and set out in an RSU
Agreement. Unless otherwise set out in a Participant’s RSU Agreement, a Participant shall not be entitled to dividends, if any, or dividend equivalents with respect to Restricted Share Units prior to settlement. It shall be within the
Committee’s sole discretion whether the RSU shall be settled in Shares, cash, or other property, as determined by the Committee. 
 5.4 Termination
of Employment or Service. Except as provided by the Committee in an RSU Agreement, Employment Agreement, or otherwise, in the event of a Participant’s Termination for any or no reason prior to the time that such Participant’s
Restricted Share Units have been settled, (1) all vesting with respect to such Participant’s Restricted Share Units outstanding shall cease; (2) all of such Participant’s unvested Restricted Share Units outstanding shall be
forfeited for no consideration as of the date of such Termination; and (3) any shares remaining undelivered with respect to vested Restricted Share Units then held by such Participant shall be delivered on the delivery date or dates specified
in the RSU Agreement, provided, however, that, the Committee may determine (at its sole discretion) that any termination of an Employment Agreement does not constitute a Termination for purposes of the Plan (for example, if a Participant
ceases to be an employee and begins providing services as a consultant, or vice versa).

	6.	 Other Share-Based and Cash-Based Awards. 

The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to Participants such other Awards that may be denominated or payable in,
valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based upon or related to Shares, as well as Awards payable in cash, in each case, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan. The Committee may also grant Shares
as a bonus (whether or not subject to any vesting requirements or other restrictions on transfer), and may grant other Awards in lieu of obligations of the Company or an Affiliate to pay cash or deliver other property under the Plan or under other
plans or compensatory arrangements, subject to such terms as shall be determined by the Committee. The terms and conditions applicable to such Awards shall be determined by the Committee and evidenced by Award Agreements, which agreements need not
be identical. 
  

	7.	 Adjustment for Recapitalization, Merger, etc. 

7.1 Capitalization Adjustments. The aggregate number of Shares that may be delivered in connection with Awards (as set out in
Section 4 hereof), the numerical Share limits in Section 4.1 hereof, the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Award, and the price per Share underlying each such Award shall be equitably
and proportionally adjusted or substituted, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, as to the number, price, or kind of a Share or other consideration subject to such Awards: 

 

	 	A.	 in the event of changes in the outstanding Shares or in the capital structure of the Company by reason of share
dividends, extraordinary cash dividends, share splits, reverse share splits, recapitalizations, reorganizations, mergers, amalgamations, arrangements, consolidations, combinations, exchanges, or other relevant changes in capitalization occurring
after the date of grant of any such Award (including any Corporate Event); 

  

	 	B.	 in connection with any extraordinary dividend declared and paid in respect of Shares, whether payable in the
form of cash, shares, or any other form of consideration; or 

  

	 	C.	 in the event of any change in applicable laws or circumstances that results in or could result in, in either
case, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, any substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights intended to be granted to, or available for, Participants in the Plan. 

In lieu of or in addition to any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.1, if deemed appropriate, the Committee may
provide that an adjustment take the form of a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award with respect to all or part of an outstanding Award, which payment shall be subject to such terms and conditions (including timing of payment(s),
vesting, and forfeiture conditions) as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion. The Committee will make such adjustments, substitutions, or payment, and its determination will be final, binding, and conclusive. The Committee need not take
the same action or actions with respect to all Awards or portions thereof or with respect to all Participants. The Committee may take different actions with respect to the vested and unvested portions of an Award.

 7.2 Corporate Events. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided by the Committee in an Award
Agreement, Employment Agreement, or otherwise, in connection with (i) a merger, amalgamation, or consolidation involving the Company in which the Company is not the surviving corporation; (ii) a merger, amalgamation, or consolidation
involving the Company in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the holders of Shares receive securities of another corporation or other property or cash; (iii) a Change in Control; or (iv) the reorganization, dissolution, or
liquidation of the Company (each, a “Corporate Event”), the Committee may provide for any one or more of the following: 
  

	 	A.	 The assumption or substitution of any or all Awards in connection with such Corporate Event, in which case the
Awards shall be subject to the adjustment set out in Section 7, and to the extent that such Awards vest subject to the achievement of performance criteria, such performance criteria shall be deemed earned at the maximum
level and will be converted into time-based vesting awards that will vest during the performance period, if any, during which the original performance criteria would have been measured. 

 

	 	B.	 The acceleration of vesting of any or all Awards not assumed or substituted in connection with such Corporate
Event, subject to the consummation of such Corporate Event; provided, that, unless otherwise set out in an Award Agreement, any Awards that vest subject to the achievement of performance criteria will be deemed earned at maximum level
provided, further, that a Participant has not resigned or become a Bad Leaver prior to such Corporate Event; 

  

	 	C.	 The cancellation of any or all Awards not assumed or substituted in connection with such Corporate Event
(whether vested or unvested) as of the consummation of such Corporate Event, together with the payment to the Participants holding vested Awards (including any Awards that would vest upon the Corporate Event but for such cancellation) so canceled of
an amount in respect of cancellation equivalent (taking into account such matters as the Committee may determine in its discretion) to the per-share consideration being paid for the Shares in connection with
such Corporate Event, less, in the case of Awards subject to exercise, the applicable exercise or base price; provided, however, that holders of Awards subject to exercise shall be entitled to consideration in respect of cancellation of such
Awards only if the per-share consideration less the applicable exercise or base price is greater than zero dollars ($0), and to the extent that the per-share
consideration is less than or equal to the applicable exercise or base price, such Awards shall be canceled for no consideration; 

  

	 	D.	 The cancellation of any or all Awards subject to exercise not assumed or substituted in connection with such
Corporate Event (whether vested or unvested) as of the consummation of such Corporate Event; provided, that, all Awards proposed to be canceled pursuant to this paragraph D shall first become exercisable for a period of at least 10 days prior
to such Corporate Event, with any exercise during such period of any unvested Awards to be (A) contingent upon and subject to the occurrence of the Corporate Event, and (B) effected by such means as are approved by the Committee; and

  
 - 11 - 

	 	E.	 The replacement of any or all Awards with a cash incentive program that preserves the value of the Awards so
replaced (determined as of the consummation of the Corporate Event), with subsequent payment of cash incentives subject to the same vesting conditions as applicable to the Awards so replaced and payment to be made within 30 days of the applicable
vesting date. 

 Payments to holders pursuant to paragraph C above shall be made in cash or, in the sole discretion of
the Committee, and to the extent applicable, in the form of such other consideration necessary for a Participant to receive property, cash, or securities (or a combination thereof) as such Participant would have been entitled to receive upon the
occurrence of the transaction if the Participant had been, immediately prior to such transaction, the holder of the number of Shares covered by the Award at such time (less any applicable exercise or base price). 

In addition, in connection with any Corporate Event, prior to any payment or adjustment contemplated under this
Section 7.2, the Committee may require a Participant to (A) represent and warrant as to the unencumbered title to his or her Awards; (B) bear such Participant’s reasonable
pro-rata share of any post-closing indemnity obligations, and be subject to the same post-closing purchase price adjustments, escrow terms, offset rights, holdback terms, and similar conditions as the other
holders of Shares; and (C) deliver customary transfer documentation as reasonably determined by the Committee. The Committee need not take the same action or actions with respect to all Awards or portions thereof or with respect to all
Participants. The Committee may take different actions with respect to the vested and unvested portions of an Award. 
 7.3 Fractional Shares. Any
adjustment provided under this Section 7 may, in the Committee’s discretion, provide for the elimination of any fractional Share that might otherwise become subject to an Award. No cash settlements shall be made with
respect to fractional Shares so eliminated. 
 7.4 Double-Trigger Vesting. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, an Award Agreement, or
an Employment Agreement to the contrary, no Participant shall have any right to require that the vesting, payment, purchase, or distribution of any Award that is assumed or substituted in connection with a Change in Control shall be accelerated by
reason of the Change in Control for any Participant, unless the Participant also experiences an involuntary Termination as a result of the Change in Control. Unless otherwise provided for in an Award Agreement or an Employment Agreement, all Awards
held by a Participant who experiences an involuntary Termination as a result of a Change in Control shall immediately vest as of the date of such Termination. For purposes of this Section 7.4, a Participant will be deemed
to experience an involuntary Termination as a result of a Change in Control (1) if the Participant experiences a Termination (i) by the Employing Entity and the Participant is not a Bad Leaver at the time of such Termination, (ii) due
to the Participant’s death or Disability (as reasonably determined by the Committee), or (iii) under circumstances which entitle the Participant to mandatory severance payment(s) pursuant to applicable law, or, (2) in the case of a non-employee director of the Company, if the non-employee director’s service on the Board terminates in connection with or as a result of a Change in Control, in each
case, at any time beginning on the date of the Change in Control up to and including the second anniversary of the Change in Control. For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee shall have the sole discretion to determine any other Terminations that
may constitute an involuntary Termination for purposes of this Section 7.4.

	8.	 Use of Proceeds. 

The proceeds received from the sale of Shares pursuant to the Plan, if any, shall be used for general corporate purposes. 

 

	9.	 Rights and Privileges as a Shareholder. 

Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan, no individual person shall be entitled to the rights and privileges of Share ownership in respect of
Shares that are subject to Awards hereunder until such Shares have been issued to that individual person. 
  

	10.	 Transferability of Awards. 

Awards may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the applicable laws of descent and
distribution (and, if applicable, may not be exercised during the lifetime of the grantee by any entity or individual person other than by the grantee). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards and a Participant’s rights under the Plan shall be
transferable for no value to the extent provided in an Award Agreement or otherwise determined at any time by the Committee. 
  

	11.	 Employment or Service Rights. 

No individual shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan or, having been selected for the grant of an Award, to be selected for the
grant of any other Award. The grant of any Award in one year does not guarantee or imply a grant of that Award, or any other Award, in future years. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any individual any
right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company. 
  

	12.	 Compliance with Laws. 

The obligation of the Company to deliver Shares upon issuance, vesting, exercise, or settlement of any Award shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules,
and regulations, and to such approvals by governmental agencies as may be required. Notwithstanding any terms or conditions of any Award to the contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to offer to sell or to sell, and shall be prohibited
from offering to sell or selling, any Shares pursuant to an Award, unless such Shares have been properly registered for sale with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act (or with a similar non-U.S. regulatory agency pursuant to a similar law or regulation), or unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Company, that such Shares may be offered or sold without such
registration pursuant to an available exemption therefrom and the terms and conditions of such exemption have been fully complied with. The Company shall be under no obligation to register for sale or resale under the Securities Act any of the
Shares to be offered or sold under the Plan or any Shares to be issued upon exercise or settlement of Awards. If the Shares offered for sale or sold under the Plan are offered or sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities
Act, the Company may restrict the transfer of such Shares and may legend the Share certificates representing such Shares in such manner as it deems advisable to ensure the availability of any such exemption. 

  
 - 13 - 

	13.	 Withholding Obligations. 

As a condition to the issuance, vesting, exercise, or settlement of any Award, the Committee may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, require that a
Participant satisfy, through deduction or withholding from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant, or through such other arrangements as are satisfactory to the Committee, the amount of all taxes and social security contributions
of any kind (including, without limitation and to the extent permitted by applicable law, employee and employer national insurance contributions, apprenticeship levy, social care levy, and other social security contributions) which are required or
permitted to be withheld, otherwise paid, or for which the Company or any Affiliate is liable or required to account in connection with such issuance, vesting, exercise, or settlement (or election) wherever chargeable and whether of the United
Kingdom, the United States (including, without limitation, all federal, state and local taxes), or any other jurisdiction (“Participant Taxes”). The Committee, in its discretion, may permit Shares to be used to satisfy any
Participant Taxes, and such Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the issuance, vesting, exercise, or settlement date of the Award, as applicable. Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold by considering the
applicable minimum statutorily required withholding rates or any other applicable withholding rates in the applicable Participant’s jurisdiction. 
  

	14.	 Tax Elections. 

14.1 Committee Elections. The Board or the Committee may, in its sole discretion, make any tax filings or tax elections relating to or in respect of the
Plan as may be advisable in the opinion of the Board or the Committee. 
 14.2 Participant Elections. As a condition of the grant, vesting, payment,
or receipt of any Award, each Participant hereby irrevocably agrees and undertakes, if requested to do so by the Board or the Committee, to properly make and file within the applicable time limits any tax election or elections, or enter into any
arrangement with respect to Participant Taxes, which the Board may, in its discretion, determine are necessary or desirable in connection with such Award, including, without limitation, any election under Part 7 of the Income Tax (Earnings and
Pensions) Act 2003. 
  

	15.	 Amendment of the Plan or Awards. 

15.1 Amendment of Plan. The Board or the Committee may amend the Plan at any time and from time to time. 

15.2 Amendment of Awards. The Board or the Committee may amend the terms of any one or more Awards and/or Award Agreements at any time and from time to
time. 
 15.3 No Material Impairment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no amendment to the Plan or any Award shall materially impair
a Participant’s rights under any Award unless the Participant consents in writing (it being understood that no action taken by the Board or the Committee that is expressly permitted under the Plan, including, without limitation, any actions
described in Section 7, shall constitute an amendment to the Plan or an Award for such purpose). Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the limitations of applicable law, if any, and without an affected
Participant’s consent, the Board or the Committee may amend the terms of the Plan or any one or more Awards from time to time as necessary to bring such Awards into compliance with applicable law. 

  
 - 14 - 

	16.	 Termination or Suspension of the Plan. 

The Board or the Committee may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. Unless sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the day before the fifth
anniversary of the date the shareholders of the Company approve the Plan. No Awards may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated; provided, however, that following any suspension or termination of
the Plan, the Plan shall remain in effect for the purpose of governing all Awards then outstanding hereunder until such time as all Awards under the Plan have been terminated, forfeited, or otherwise canceled, or earned, exercised, settled, or
otherwise paid out, in accordance with their terms. 
  

	17.	 Miscellaneous. 

17.1 Treatment of Dividends and Dividend Equivalents on Unvested Awards. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, with respect
to any Award that provides for or includes a right to dividends or dividend equivalents, if dividends are declared during the period that an equity Award is outstanding, such dividends (or dividend equivalents) shall either (1) not be paid or
credited with respect to such Award, or (2) be accumulated but remain subject to vesting requirement(s) to the same extent as the applicable Award and shall only be paid at the time or times such vesting requirement(s) are satisfied. Except as
otherwise determined by the Committee, no interest will accrue or be paid on the amount of any cash dividends withheld. 
 17.2 Certificates. Shares
acquired pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan may be evidenced in such a manner as the Committee shall determine. If certificates representing Shares are registered in the name of the Participant, the Committee may require that (1) such
certificates bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Shares; (2) the Company retain physical possession of the certificates; and (3) the Participant deliver a share power to the
Company, endorsed in blank, relating to the Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may determine, in its sole discretion, that the Shares shall be held in book-entry form rather than delivered to the Participant pending the release of
any applicable restrictions. 
 17.3 Other Benefits. No Award granted or paid out under the Plan shall be deemed compensation for purposes of
computing benefits under any retirement plan of the Company or its Affiliates nor affect any benefits under any other benefit plan now or subsequently in effect under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to the level of
compensation. 
 17.4 Corporate Action Constituting Grant of Awards. Corporate action constituting a grant by the Company of an Award to any
Participant will be deemed completed as of the date of such corporate action, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, regardless of when the instrument, certificate, or letter evidencing the Award is communicated to, or actually received or
accepted by, the Participant. In the event that the corporate records (e.g., Committee consents, resolutions, or minutes) documenting the corporate action constituting the grant contain terms

  
 - 15 - 

 
(e.g., exercise price, vesting schedule, or number of Shares) that are inconsistent with those in the Award Agreement as a result of a clerical error in connection with the
preparation of the Award Agreement, the corporate records will control, and the Participant will have no legally binding right to the incorrect term in the Award Agreement. 

17.5 Clawback/Recoupment Policy. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, all Awards granted under the Plan shall be and remain
subject to any incentive compensation clawback or recoupment policy currently in effect or as may be adopted by the Board (or a committee or subcommittee of the Board) and, in each case, as may be amended from time to time. No such policy adoption
or amendment shall in any event require the prior consent of any Participant. No recovery of compensation under such a clawback policy will be an event giving rise to a right to resign for “good reason” or “constructive
termination” (or similar term) under any agreement with the Company or any of its Affiliates. In the event that an Award is subject to more than one such policy, the policy with the most restrictive clawback or recoupment provisions shall
govern such Award, subject to applicable law. 
 17.6 Data Privacy. Each Participant shall comply with the data protection and IT security policies
of the Company and its Affiliates when handling any personal data in the course of acting as a Participant, including personal data relating to any other Participant, or any employee, contractor, customer, supplier, or agent of the Company or any of
its Affiliates. Further, each Participant acknowledges that the Company and its Affiliates will, from time to time, process, collect, use, and transfer, in electronic or other form, personal data regarding such Participant. 

 

	 	A.	 Purposes of Processing. The Company and its Affiliates may process each Participant’s personal data
for the purposes of: (i) implementing, administering, and managing the Plan and Awards and the Participant’s participation in the Plan (including all applicable anti-money laundering, Know Your Customer (“KYC”) and other related
laws and regulations); (ii) performing their obligations under the Award Agreement; (iii) ongoing communications with Participants and their representatives, advisors, and agents; (iv) complying with any legal or regulatory requirement;
(v) keeping Participants informed about the business of the Company and its Affiliates; and (vi) any other purpose that has been notified or has been agreed in writing. 

 

	 	B.	 Legal Bases for Processing. The Company and its Affiliates will only process Participants’ Personal
Data where: (i) it is necessary to perform a contract with the Participant; (ii) it is required to comply with a legal obligation (including prevention of fraud); (iii) it is in the legitimate interests of the Company and/or its Affiliates
to operate their businesses (notably with respect to the purposes set out in clauses (iii) and (v) of Section 17.6A above); (iv) the Participant has consented; and (v) from time to time, if necessary to protect
the vital interests of a Participant or in the public interest. 

  

	 	C.	 Categories of Personal Data. In connection with the above purposes, the Company and its Affiliates may
process certain personal data about a Participant, including, but not limited to, the Participant’s name, home address, telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary,

  
 - 16 - 

	 	
nationality, job title(s), information regarding any securities of the Company or any of its Affiliates, and details of all Awards (the “Participant Personal Data”). The
Company and/or its Affiliates do not process any special category Personal Data regarding a Participant. The Company and/or its Affiliates may also process Personal Data from available public sources, including any of the following: publicly
available and accessible directories and sources, bankruptcy registers, tax authorities, governmental and competent regulatory authorities, credit agencies, fraud prevention, and detection agencies and organisations. 

 

	 	D.	 Sharing and Transfers of Personal Data. In addition to transferring the Participant Personal Data
amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration, and management of the Plan and Awards and the Participant’s participation in the Plan, the Company and its Affiliates may each transfer the Participant Personal
Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation, administration, and management of the Plan and Awards and the Participant’s participation in the Plan, including service providers, employees, agents, contractors,
consultants, professional advisors, lenders, and any broker or other third party with whom the Company or the Participant may elect to deposit any Ordinary Shares. In addition, the Company and/or its Affiliates may share any Participant Personal
Data with regulatory bodies having competent jurisdiction over them, as well as the tax authorities, auditors, and tax advisors (where necessary or required by law). Recipients of the Personal Data may be located in the Participant’s country or
elsewhere, and the Participant’s country and any given recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections, including any Non-Equivalent Country (as defined below). For
information on the safeguards applied to such transfers, Participants may contact their local human resources representative. For the purposes of this Section D, “Non-Equivalent
Country” shall mean a country or territory other than (i) a member state of the European Economic Area; (ii) the United Kingdom, or (iii) a country or territory which has at the relevant time been decided by the European
Commission or the relevant United Kingdom data protection authority (as applicable) in accordance with applicable data protection legislation, to ensure an adequate level of protection for personal data. 

 

	 	E.	 Retention and Security of Personal Data. The Company and its Affiliates consider the protection of
personal data to be a sound business practice, and to that end, employ appropriate technical and organisational measures, including robust physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect personal data in their possession or under their
control. The personal data related to a Participant will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Plan and Awards and the Participant’s participation in the Plan, or where longer, such longer period as is
required by applicable legal or regulatory obligation. 

  

	 	F.	 Data Subject Rights. A Participant may, at any time, view the personal data held by the Company with
respect to such Participant, request additional information about the storage and processing of the personal data with respect to such Participant, request any necessary corrections to or erasure of the personal data with respect to

  
 - 17 - 

	 	
the Participant, exercise their rights to data portability, exercise their rights not to be subject to automated decision-making, or refuse or withdraw the consents herein in writing, in any case
without cost, by contacting his or her local human resources representative. The Participant acknowledges that the right to erasure is not absolute, and it may not always be possible to erase personal data on request, including where the personal
data must be retained to comply with a legal obligation. In addition, erasure of the Participant Personal Data requested to fulfill the purposes described in this Section 17.6(f), may result in the inability to provide the
services required pursuant the terms of any Award under the Plan. 

  

	 	G.	 Objections, Complaints and Questions. In the event a Participant disagrees with the way in which their
personal data is being processed pursuant to this Section 17.6, the Participant has the right to object to this processing of personal data and request restriction of the processing. The Participant may also lodge a
complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority in the relevant jurisdiction. The Participant may raise any request relating to the processing of such personal data by contacting such Participant’s local human resources
representative. 

  

	 	H.	 Further Details. Further details regarding the use of Participant Personal Data, including the
Company’s current data protection officer as of the Effective Date, can be found on the Company’s intraweb. As of the Effective Date, the Company does not intend to make automated decisions regarding Participants using their Participant
Personal Data. 

  

	 	I.	 Definitions. In this Section 17.6, the terms “data subject”,
“personal data”, “processor” and “appropriate technical and organisational measures” shall have the meanings given to them in the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) (the
“GDPR”), the Data Protection Act 2018 and the GDPR as it forms part of the law of England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland by virtue of section 3 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 as applicable.

 17.7 Participants Outside of the United Kingdom. The Committee may modify the terms of any Award under the Plan made to or held
by a Participant who is then a resident, or is primarily employed or providing services, outside of the United Kingdom in any manner deemed by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate in order that such Award shall conform to laws, regulations,
and customs of the country in which the Participant is then a resident or primarily employed or providing services, or so that the value and other benefits of the Award to the Participant, as affected by non–UK tax laws and other restrictions
applicable as a result of the Participant’s residence, employment, or providing services abroad, shall be comparable to the value of such Award to a Participant who is a resident, or is primarily employed or providing services, in the United
Kingdom (including, but not limited to, requiring such Participant to make a timely tax election in relation to any Award, as provided for under relevant non–UK tax laws and as deemed by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate, considering
the relevant non–UK tax implications of the grant of such Award). An Award may be modified under this Section 17.7 in a manner that is inconsistent with the express terms of the Plan, so long as such modifications will
not contravene any applicable law. Additionally, the Committee may adopt such procedures and sub-plans as are necessary or appropriate to permit participation in the Plan by Eligible Persons who are
non–UK nationals or residents or are primarily employed or providing services outside the United Kingdom. 

  
 - 18 - 

 17.8 Change in Time Commitment. In the event a Participant’s regular level of time commitment in
the performance of his or her services for the Company or any of its Affiliates is reduced pursuant to such Participant’s request or consent (for example, and without limitation, if the Participant is an employee of the Company and the employee
has a change in status from full-time employee to part-time employee), and the reduction occurs after the date of grant of any Award to the Participant, the Committee has the right, in its sole discretion, to (i) make a corresponding
modification in the number of Shares subject to any portion of such Award that is scheduled to vest or become payable after the date of such change in time commitment, and (ii) in lieu of or in combination with such a modification, reasonably
extend the vesting or payment schedule applicable to such Award. In the event of any such reduction, the Participant will have no right with respect to any portion of the Award that is so reduced or extended. This
Section 17.8 shall be subject to any limitations imposed with respect to a Participant under applicable law. 
 17.9 No
Liability of Committee Members. Neither any member of the Committee nor any of the Committee’s permitted delegates shall be liable personally by reason of any contract or other instrument executed by such member or on his or her behalf in
his or her capacity as a member of the Committee or for any mistake of judgment made in good faith, and the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Committee and each other employee, officer, or director of the Company to whom
any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan may be allocated or delegated, against all costs and expenses (including counsel fees) and liabilities (including sums paid in settlement of a claim) arising out of any
act or omission to act in connection with the Plan, unless arising out of such individual person’s own fraud or willful misconduct; provided, however, that approval of the Board shall be required for the payment of any amount in
settlement of a claim against any such individual person. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such individual persons may be entitled under the Company’s certificate or
articles of incorporation or by-laws, each as may be amended from time to time, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless. 

17.10 Payments Following Accidents or Illness. If the Committee shall find that any individual person to whom any amount is payable under the Plan is
unable to care for his or her affairs because of illness or accident, or is a minor, or has died, then any payment due to such individual person or his or her estate (unless a prior claim therefor has been made by a duly appointed legal
representative) may, if the Committee so directs the Company, be paid to his or her spouse, child, relative, an institution maintaining or having custody of such individual person, or any other entity or individual person deemed by the Committee to
be a proper recipient on behalf of such individual person otherwise entitled to payment. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liability of the Committee and the Company therefor. 

17.11 Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, without reference to the principles
of conflicts of laws thereof. 

  
 - 19 - 

 17.12 Electronic Delivery. Any reference herein to a “written” agreement or document or
“writing” will include any agreement or document delivered electronically or posted on the Company’s intranet or share administration portal (as defined by the Company from time to time) (or other shared electronic medium controlled
or authorized by the Company to which the Participant has access) to the extent permitted by applicable law. 
 17.13 Exclusive Jurisdiction. The
Courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with this Plan, its subject matter or
formation. 
 17.14 Statute of Limitations. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, a Participant or any other person filing a claim for
benefits under the Plan must file the claim within three years of the date the Participant or other person knew or should have known of the facts giving rise to the claim. This three-year statute of limitations (if and to the extent permitted
by applicable law) will apply in any forum where a Participant or any other person may file a claim and, unless the Company waives the time limits set out above in its sole discretion or if and to the extent such provision is prohibited by
applicable law, any claim not brought within the time periods specified shall be waived and forever barred. 
 17.15 Funding. No provision of the
Plan shall require the Company, for the purpose of satisfying any obligations under the Plan, to purchase assets or place any assets in a trust or other entity to which contributions are made or otherwise to segregate any assets, nor shall the
Company be required to maintain separate bank accounts, books, records, or other evidence of the existence of a segregated or separately maintained or administered fund for such purposes. Participants shall have no rights under the Plan other than
as unsecured general creditors of the Company, except that insofar as they may have become entitled to payment of additional compensation by performance of services, they shall have the same rights as other employees and service providers under
general law. 
 17.16 Reliance on Reports. Each member of the Committee and each member of the Board shall be fully justified in relying, acting, or
failing to act, and shall not be liable for having so relied, acted, or failed to act in good faith, upon any report made by the independent public accountant of the Company and its Affiliates and upon any other information furnished in connection
with the Plan by any entity, entities, individual person or individual persons other than such member. 
 17.17 Titles and Headings. The titles and
headings of the sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. 

17.18 Third Party Rights. Save for the Company’s Affiliates (each of which shall be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement that
expressly or implicitly confers a right or benefit upon such Affiliate), a person who is not a party to this Agreement has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce or enjoy the benefit of any term of this Agreement.

 Annex A 

Terms Applicable to Participants Subject to U.S. Tax (“U.S. Participants”) 

 

	1.	 Certain definitions:  

 

	 	a.	 “Code” means the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, including
the rules and regulations thereunder and any successor provisions, rules, and regulations thereto. Any reference in the Plan to any section of the Code shall be deemed to include reference to any rules, regulations, or other interpretative guidance
under such section, and any amendments or successor provisions to such section, rules, regulations, or guidance. 

  

	 	b.	 If the Shares are not listed on a national securities exchange, “Fair Market Value” shall mean
the amount determined by the Board in good faith, and in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Code, to be the fair market value per Share. 

  

	2.	 With respect to the payment of any amount that constitutes a deferral of compensation subject to
Section 409A of the Code payable upon a Change in Control, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to have occurred, unless the Change in Control constitutes a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or in the ownership of a
substantial portion of the assets of the Company under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code. 

  

	3.	 With respect to any Award that is intended to qualify as a “stock right” that does not provide for a
“deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the term “Affiliate” as used in Section 2.10 shall include only those corporations or other entities in the unbroken chain of corporations or
other entities beginning with the Company where each of the corporations or other entities in the unbroken chain, other than the last corporation or other entity, owns stock possessing at least 50% or more of the total combined voting power of all
classes of stock in one of the other corporations or other entities in the chain. 

  

	4.	 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a U.S. Participant’s change in status in relation to the
Employing Entity (for example, a change from employee to consultant) shall not be deemed a Termination hereunder with respect to any Awards constituting “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code that are
payable upon a Termination, unless such change in status constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any payments in respect of an Award constituting nonqualified deferred compensation
subject to Section 409A of the Code that are payable upon a Termination shall be delayed for such period as may be necessary to meet the requirements of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code. On the first business day following the
expiration of such period, the U.S. Participant shall be paid, in a single lump sum without interest, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all payments delayed pursuant to the preceding sentence, and any remaining payments not so delayed shall
continue to be paid pursuant to the payment schedule applicable to such Award. 

  
 - 21 - 

	5.	 The Committee shall take into account compliance with Sections 409A and 457A of the Code in connection with any
grant of an Award to a U.S. Participant under the Plan, to the extent applicable. While the Awards granted hereunder are intended to be structured in a manner to avoid the imposition of any penalty taxes under Sections 409A and 457A of the Code, in
no event whatsoever shall the Company or any of its Affiliates be liable for any additional tax, interest, or penalties that may be imposed on a U.S. Participant as a result of Section 409A or Section 457A of the Code or any damages for
failing to comply with Section 409A or Section 457A of the Code or any similar state or local laws (other than for withholding obligations or other obligations applicable to employers, if any, under Section 409A or Section 457A
of the Code). 

  

	6.	 In connection with a Corporate Event, unless permitted under Section 409A of the Code, the Committee shall
not replace Awards intended to qualify as “stock rights” that do not provide for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code with a cash incentive program that preserves the value of the
Awards so replaced (determined as of the consummation of the Corporate Event), with subsequent payment of cash incentives subject to the same vesting conditions as applicable to the Awards so replaced and payment to be made within 30 days of the
applicable vesting date.
