  1.Advances. (a) The Borrower Representative (as defined in the Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined)) may request advances, repay and request additional advances hereunder until the Expiration Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Note and the Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined). The “Expiration Date” shall mean March 2, 2026, or such later date as may be designated by the Bank by written notice from the Bank to the Borrower Representative. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that in no event will the Bank be under any obligation to extend or renew the Facility or this Note beyond the Expiration Date. The Borrower Representative may request advances hereunder upon giving oral or written notice to the Bank by 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland, Ohio time) (a) on the day of the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of advances to bear interest under the Base Rate Option (as hereinafter defined), (b) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of advances to bear interest under the Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option (as hereinafter defined), (c) four (4) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies to which the Eurocurrency Rate Option applies, or the conversion to or renewal of a Eurocurrency Rate Option for any Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, and (d) four (4) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Polish Zloty, or the conversion to or renewal of a Eurocurrency Rate Option for any Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, followed promptly thereafter by the Borrower Representative’s written confirmation to the Bank of any oral notice. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of advances under this Note plus the LC Exposure (as defined in the Loan Agreement (as hereinafter defined)) shall not exceed the face amount of this Note.

   

  (b)The Borrower Representative may request that advances under this Note and subject LCs under the Loan Documents be made or issued in an Agreed Foreign Currency. As used herein, the term “Agreed 

  2

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

  

   

  Foreign Currencies” shall mean Australian Dollars, Polish Zloty, Euros, New Zealand Dollars and any other foreign currency requested by the Borrower Representative and approved by the Bank in its sole discretion, and “Agreed Foreign Currency” shall mean any one of such currencies. The Bank may, with respect to advances made in an Agreed Foreign Currency, engage in reasonable rounding of the Agreed Foreign Currency amounts requested. As used herein, the term “Currency” means Dollars or any Agreed Foreign Currency and “Currencies” shall mean, collectively, Dollars and each Agreed Foreign Currency.

   

  (c)All advances under this Note and subject LCs under the Loan Documents made or issued in Agreed Foreign Currencies shall be governed by the Bank’s standard fees, charges, agreements, policy guidelines and other terms and provisions relating to such advances and issuances as in effect from time to time (collectively, the “Bank’s Standard Foreign Currency Terms”), in addition to the specific provisions set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the Bank’s Standard Foreign Currency Terms and the terms of this Note or any other Loan Document, the Bank’s Standard Foreign Currency Terms shall govern.

   

  (d)All payments due hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imports, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any jurisdiction or taxing authority, domestic or foreign, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i) taxes imposed on the Bank's net income and (ii) taxes imposed on the Bank’s net income and franchise taxes imposed on the Bank, by the jurisdiction of the Bank’s lending office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this paragraph) the Bank will receive an amount equal to the sum the Bank would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, and (ii) each Borrower agrees to pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and promptly provide to the Bank the official receipt or other document evidencing such payment.   In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or document taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Note (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). If any Taxes or Other Taxes required to be paid by any Borrower hereunder are not paid and are imposed on and paid by the Bank, the Borrowers shall indemnify the Bank and reimburse the Bank for the amount of such payment, together with any interest, penalties and expenses in connection therewith, whether or not such tax shall have been correctly or legally imposed.    Such reimbursement shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date the Bank makes written demand therefor.

   

  Payment under this Note and the other Loan Documents shall be made in the relevant Agreed Foreign Currency or Dollars, as the case may be, at 1900 East Ninth Street, Cleveland, Ohio 44114 or such other location as may be designated by the Bank from time to time, is of the essence hereof. If payment is not made in the currency due hereunder or under any other Loan Document (the “Contractual Currency”) or if any court or tribunal shall render a judgment or order for the payment of amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document and such judgment is expressed in a currency other than the Contractual Currency, each Borrower shall indemnify and hold the Bank harmless against any deficiency in terms of the amount received by the Bank arising or resulting from any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into the currency actually received or the currency in which the judgment is expressed (the “Received Currency”) and (ii) the rate of exchange at which the Bank would, in accordance with normal banking procedures, be able to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Received Currency by the Bank on the Business Day following receipt of the Received Currency. If the court or tribunal has fixed the date on which the rate of exchange is determined for the conversion of the judgment currency into the Contractual Currency (the “Conversion Date”) and if there is a change in the 

  3

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

  

   

  rate of exchange prevailing between the Conversion Date and the date of receipt by the Bank, then the Borrowers will, notwithstanding such judgment or order, pay such additional amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Received Currency when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt will produce the amount then due to the Bank from the Borrowers hereunder in the Contractual Currency.

   

  If a Borrower shall wind up, liquidate, dissolve or become bankrupt while there remains outstanding (i) any amounts owing to the Bank under this Note or under any other Loan Document, (ii) any damages owing to the Bank in respect of a breach of any of the terms hereof or (iii) any judgment or order rendered in respect of such amounts or damages, each Borrower shall indemnify and hold the Bank harmless against any deficiency in terms of the Contractual Currency in the amounts received by the Bank arising or resulting from any variation as between (a) the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into another currency (the “Liquidation Currency”) for purposes of such winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy with regard to the amount in the Contractual Currency due or contingently due hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any judgment or order into which the relevant obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall have been merged and (b) the rate of exchange at which the Bank could, in accordance with normal banking procedures be able to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Liquidation Currency at the earlier of (1) the date of payment of such amounts or damages and (2) the final date or dates for the filing of proofs of a claim in a winding- up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy.   As used in the preceding sentence, the “final date” or “dates for the filing of proofs of a claim in a winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy” shall be the date fixed by the liquidator or other appropriate person or otherwise applicable under the applicable law as being the last practicable date as of which the liabilities of a Borrower may be ascertained for such winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy before payment by the liquidator or other appropriate person in respect thereof.

(B) On and after the Term RFR Transition Date with respect to Euros, in the case of Loans denominated in Euros that bear interest based on Term RFR, a rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed, except that interest on Loans denominated in Euros as to which market practice differs from the foregoing shall be computed in accordance with market practice for such Loans) equal to the Term RFR for Euros as determined for each applicable Interest Period plus the RFR Adjustment plus the Applicable Margin.

  a.Unascertainable; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available. If at any time:

  i.(i) the Bank shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that (x) the Eurocurrency Rate, Daily BSBY Floating Rate, Daily Simple RFR or Term RFR applicable to a Loan (in each case whether in Dollars or an Agreed Foreign Currency) cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, including, without limitation, because such rate for the corresponding applicable Currency is not available or published on a current basis or (y) a fundamental change has occurred in the foreign exchange or interbank markets with respect to such Currency or with respect to such rate (including, without limitation, changes in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls), or

  5

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

  

   

  ii.the Bank determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Daily BSBY Floating Rate, Eurocurrency Rate, prior to the Term RFR Transition Date with respect to any Loans that bear interest based on Daily Simple RFR denominated in any Agreed Foreign Currency, or Daily Simple RFR with respect to any Currency, cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof or, on and after the Term RFR Transition Date with respect to any Loans that bear interest based Term RFR denominated in any Currency, Term RFR for such Currency cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period, or

  iii.the Bank determines that for any reason in connection with any request for a Term Rate Loan (in each case whether denominated in Dollars or an Agreed Foreign Currency) or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that (A) deposits in the applicable Currency are not available to Bank in connection with such Term Rate Loan, or are not being offered to banks in the market for the applicable Currency, amount, and Interest Period of such Term Rate Loan, or (B) the Term Rate Loan Option for any requested Currency or Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term Rate Loan, as applicable, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding, establishing or maintaining such Loan,

  then the Bank shall have the rights specified in Section 2(vii)(c) [Bank’s Rights].

  b.Illegality. If at any time Bank shall have determined, or any Official Body shall have asserted, that the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which any Interest Rate Option applies, or the determination or charging of interest rates based upon any Interest Rate Option has been made impracticable or unlawful, by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or any Official Body has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase, sell, or take deposits of any Currency in the applicable interbank market for the applicable Currency,

  then the Bank shall have the rights specified in Section 2(vii)(c) [Bank’s Rights].

  c.Bank’s Rights.

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

  

   

  ii.	If at any time the Bank makes a determination under Section 2(vii)(a) [Unascertainable; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] (a) if the Borrowers have previously notified the Bank of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a an affected Interest Rate Option, and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall (i) with regard to any such pending request for Loans denominated in Dollars, be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans in the amount specified therein and (ii) with regard to any such pending request for Loans denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency, be deemed ineffective (in each case to the extent of the affected Interest Rate Option, or the applicable Interest Periods), (b) any outstanding affected Loans denominated in Dollars shall be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans immediately, and (c) any outstanding affected Loans denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency shall, at the Borrower Representative’s election, either be converted into Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) immediately or prepaid in full immediately; provided, however that absent notice from the Borrower Representative of conversion or prepayment, such Loans shall automatically be converted to Base Rate Loans (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Agreed Foreign Currency).

Absent due notice from the Borrower Representative of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan (which shall be, with respect to Loans denominated in an Agreed Foreign Currency, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Agreed Foreign Currency) upon such specified date.

  d.Benchmark Replacement Settings

  i.Benchmark Replacement.

  1.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any agreement executed in connection with an Interest Rate Hedge shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting”), 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 for any Currency, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” 

  7

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

  

   

  (except as set forth in clause (y) below) 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 Note or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3), (4), or (5) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” or clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” 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 Bank without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Note or any other Loan Document.

  2.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term RFR Transition Date has occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark consisting of a Daily Simple RFR for the applicable Currency, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark for the applicable Currency setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Note or any other Loan Document; provided that this clause (2) shall not be effective unless the Bank has delivered to the Borrower Representative a Term RFR Notice with respect to the applicable Term RFR Transition Event. For the avoidance of doubt, the Bank shall not be required to deliver a Term RFR Notice after a Term RFR Transition Event and may elect or not elect to do so in its sole discretion.

  ii.Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Bank will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Note or any other Loan Document.

  iii.Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Bank will promptly notify the Borrower Representative of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, and (B) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement.

  8

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

  

   

  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 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 Note or any other Loan Document except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section.

  e.Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. 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 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 Bank in its reasonable discretion, (B) the administrator or regulatory supervisor of the administrator of such Benchmark or an Official Body having jurisdiction over such administrator with respect to its publication of such Benchmark or an Official Body having jurisdiction over the Bank, in each case acting in such capacity, has provided a public statement or publication of information identifying a specific date after which any tenor shall or will no longer be made available, or will not be representative, or will not be permitted to be used for determining the interest rate for syndicated loans denominated in the applicable Currency, or (C) the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information (including a “Technical Note” published on the BSBY Website) announcing that a BSBY Final Step Event has occurred with respect to any tenor for such Benchmark, then the Bank may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such impacted 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 described in clause (i)(B) or clause (i)(C) above, then the Bank may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

  f.Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower Representative’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower Representative may revoke any pending request for, conversion to or continuation of a Loan bearing interest based on the Daily BSBY Floating Rate, Eurocurrency Rate or RFR to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower Representative will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Loan of or conversion to Loans bearing interest under the Base Rate Option. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon such then-current Benchmark or the tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

  g.Inconsistencies with Loan Agreement. The Borrowers hereby agree that if any provision of this Section 2(vii) is inconsistent with Section 9 of the Loan Agreement, this Section 2(vii) shall govern.

  (ix)“Benchmark Replacement Notification”. Section (vii) [Benchmark Replacement Setting] of this Note provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest 

  9

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

Such fifteen (15) day period shall not be construed in any way to extend the due date of any such payment. Upon maturity, whether by acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at the Bank’s option upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) and during the continuance thereof, each advance outstanding under this Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum (based on the actual number of days that principal is outstanding over a year of 360 days) which shall be two percentage points (2%) in excess of the interest rate in effect from time to time under this Note but not more than the maximum rate allowed by law (the “Default Rate”). The Default Rate shall continue to apply whether or not judgment shall be entered on this Note. Both the Late Charge and the Default Rate are imposed as liquidated damages for the purpose of defraying the Bank’s expenses incident to the handling of delinquent payments, but are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the Bank’s exercise of any rights and remedies hereunder, under the other Loan Documents or under applicable law, and any fees and expenses of any agents or attorneys which the Bank may employ. In addition, the Default Rate reflects the increased credit risk to the Bank of carrying a loan that is in default. Each Borrower agrees that the Late Charge and Default Rate are reasonable forecasts of just compensation for anticipated and actual harm incurred by the Bank, and that the actual harm incurred by the Bank cannot be estimated with certainty and without difficulty.

   

  7.Prepayment; Reduction of Facility. The Borrowers shall have the right to prepay any advance hereunder at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part; subject, however, to payment of any break funding indemnification amounts owing pursuant to paragraph 8 below.

In addition, each Borrower agrees to indemnify the Bank against any liabilities, losses or expenses (including, without limitation, loss of margin, any loss or expense sustained or incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, and any loss or expense incurred in connection with funds acquired to effect, fund or maintain any advance (or any part thereof) bearing interest under the Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option) which the Bank sustains or incurs as a consequence of either (i) any Borrower’s failure to make a payment on the due date thereof, (ii) any Borrower’s revocation (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or in part of any notice given to Bank to request, convert, renew or prepay any advance bearing interest under the Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option, 

  27

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

  

   

  or (iii) any Borrower’s payment or prepayment (whether voluntary, after acceleration of the maturity of this Note or otherwise) or conversion of any advance bearing interest under the Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period. A notice as to any amounts payable pursuant to this paragraph given to any Borrower by the Bank shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and shall be payable upon demand. Each Borrower’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall survive the payment in full of the advances and all other amounts payable hereunder.

A copy of this Note, certified by the Bank, may be filed in each such proceeding in place of filing the original as a warrant of attorney.

   

  12.Right of Setoff. In addition to all liens upon and rights of setoff against any Borrower’s money, securities or other property given to the Bank by law, the Bank shall have, with respect to the Borrowers’ obligations to the Bank under this Note and to the extent permitted by law, a contractual possessory security interest in and a contractual right of setoff against, and each Borrower hereby grants the Bank a security interest in, and hereby assigns, conveys, delivers, pledges and transfers to the Bank, all of such Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to, all of such Borrower’s deposits, moneys, securities and other property now or hereafter in the possession of or on deposit with, or in transit to, the Bank or any other direct or indirect subsidiary of The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc., whether held in a general or special account or deposit, whether held jointly with someone else, or whether held for safekeeping or otherwise, excluding, however, all IRA, Keogh, and trust accounts. Every such security interest and right of setoff may be exercised without demand upon or notice to the Borrowers. Every such right of setoff shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder without any action of the Bank, although the Bank may enter such setoff on its books and records at a later time.

  13.Indemnity. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify each of the Bank, each legal entity, if any, who controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Bank, and each of their respective directors, officers and employees (the “Indemnified Parties”), and to defend and hold each Indemnified Party harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including all fees and charges of internal or external counsel with whom any Indemnified Party may consult and all expenses of litigation and preparation therefor) which any Indemnified Party may incur or which may be asserted against any Indemnified Party by any person, entity or Governmental Authority (including any person or entity claiming derivatively on behalf of any Borrower), in connection with or arising out of or relating to the matters referred to in this Note or in the other Loan Documents or the use of any advance hereunder, whether (a) arising from or incurred in connection with any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by any Borrower, or (b) arising out of or resulting from any suit, action, claim, proceeding or governmental investigation, pending or threatened, whether based on statute, regulation or order, or tort, or contract or otherwise, before any court or Governmental Authority; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply to any claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses solely attributable to an Indemnified Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section shall survive the termination of this Note, payment of any advance hereunder and the assignment of any rights hereunder. Any Borrower may participate at its expense in the defense of any such action or claim.

   

  14.Miscellaneous. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other communications required or permitted hereunder (“Notices”) must be in writing (except as may be agreed otherwise above with respect to borrowing requests) and will be effective upon receipt. Notices may be given in any manner to which the parties may separately agree. Without limiting the foregoing, first-class mail, facsimile transmission, electronic mail and commercial courier service are hereby agreed to as acceptable methods for giving Notices.   Regardless of the manner in which provided, Notices may be sent to a party’s address as set forth above or to such other address as any party may give to the other for such purpose in accordance with this paragraph. No delay or omission on the Bank’s part to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Bank’s action or inaction impair any such right or power. The Bank’s rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which the Bank may have under other agreements, at law or in equity. No modification, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Borrowers from, any provision of this Note will be effective unless made in a writing signed by the Bank, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. The Borrowers agree to pay on demand, to the extent permitted by law, all costs and expenses incurred by the Bank in the enforcement of its rights in this Note and in any security therefor, including without limitation reasonable fees and expenses of the Bank’s counsel. If any provision of this Note is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court, all the other provisions of this Note will remain in full force and effect.   Each Borrower and all other makers and indorsers of this Note hereby forever waive presentment, protest, notice of dishonor and notice of non-payment. Each Borrower also waives all defenses based on suretyship or impairment of collateral. If this Note is executed by more than one Borrower, the obligations of such persons or entities hereunder will be joint and several. This Note shall bind each Borrower and its heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and the benefits hereof shall inure to the benefit of the Bank and its successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Borrower may assign this Note in whole or in part without the Bank’s written consent and the Bank at any time may assign this Note in whole or in part.

   

  If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the "specified currency") into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Bank could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Bank’s main office on the Business Day 

  30

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

  

   

  preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due to the Bank hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by Bank of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency Bank may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency.   If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to Bank in the specified currency, the Borrowers agree, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Bank against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to Bank in the specified currency Bank agrees to remit such excess to the Borrowers.

   

  If, as a result of the implementation of the European monetary union, (i) any Agreed Foreign Currency ceases to be lawful currency of the nation issuing the same and is replaced by the Euro, or (ii) any Agreed Foreign Currency and the Euro are at the same time recognized by any Governmental Authority of the nation issuing such currency as lawful currency of such nation and the Bank shall so request in a notice delivered to the Borrower Representative, then any amount payable hereunder by any party hereto in such Agreed Foreign Currency shall instead be payable in the Euro and the amount so payable shall be determined by translating the amount payable in such Agreed Foreign Currency to the Euro at the exchange rate recognized by the European Central Bank for the purpose of implementing European monetary union. Prior to the occurrence of the event or events described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, each amount payable hereunder in any Agreed Foreign Currency will, except as otherwise provided herein, continue to be payable only in that Agreed Foreign Currency.

   

  Each Borrower agrees, at the request of the Bank to compensate the Bank for any loss, cost, expense or reduction in return that the Bank shall reasonably determine shall be incurred or sustained by Bank as a result of the implementation of European monetary union and that would not have been incurred or sustained but for the transactions provided for herein. A certificate of the Bank setting forth the Bank’s determination of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Bank shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error so long as such determination is made on a reasonable basis. The Borrowers shall pay the Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

   

  Each Borrower agrees, at the time of or at any time following the implementation of any changes to the European monetary union, to use reasonable efforts to enter into an agreement amending this Note in order to reflect the implementation of such changes, and to place the Bank and the Borrowers in the position with respect to the settlement of payments of the Euro as they would have been with respect to the settlement of the Agreed Foreign Currency it replaced.

   

  This Note has been delivered to and accepted by the Bank and will be deemed to be made in the State where the Bank’s office indicated above is located. THIS NOTE WILL BE INTERPRETED AND THE RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE BANK AND THE BORROWERS DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE WHERE THE BANK’S OFFICE INDICATED ABOVE IS LOCATED, EXCLUDING ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the county or judicial district where the Bank’s office indicated above is located; provided that nothing contained in this Note will prevent the Bank from bringing any action, enforcing any award or judgment or exercising any rights against any Borrower individually, against any security or against any property of any Borrower within any other county, state or other foreign or domestic jurisdiction. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Bank and the Borrowers. Each Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Note.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Available Tenor for Daily Simple SOFR is one month.

   

  “Base Rate Credit Extension” means a Credit Extension nominally based on a “Base Rate”, “Alternate Base Rate”, “Alternative Base Rate”, “ABR”, “BSBY Screen Rate” or other analogous or similar term generally indicating use of a benchmark rate other than, immediately prior to giving effect to the provisions of Article III of this Exhibit A, USD LIBOR or BSBY Screen Rate, as applicable, but which term, immediately prior to giving effect to the provisions of Article III of this Exhibit A, would have included a component based on USD LIBOR or BSBY Screen Rate, as applicable.

   

  “Benchmark” means, initially, SOFR; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred with respect to a then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to Section 5.1(d) of this Exhibit A.

  For the avoidance of doubt, 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 available under the Amended Agreement (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

   

  “Benchmark Transition Event” means, the occurrence of one or more of the following events, with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

   

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

   

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

   

  (3)a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) or an Official Body having jurisdiction over the Bank announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are not, or as of a specified future date will not 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).

  “Credit Extension” means any extension of credit of any type denominated in U.S. Dollars under the Existing Note, the Amended Agreement, any other Existing Document or any other Amended Document, whether characterized as a loan, term loan, revolving loan, swingline loan, daylight overdraft loan, bid loan, advance, borrowing, credit extension, letter of credit or other financial accommodation, and whether constituting a new extension of credit, the renewal, extension of the expiry date or reinstatement or increase in the amount of an existing extension of credit or a conversion or continuation of an existing extension of credit.

If SOFR for any SOFR Determination Date has not been published or replaced with a Benchmark Replacement by 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the second Business Day immediately following such SOFR Determination Date, then SOFR for such SOFR Determination Date will be SOFR for the first Business Day preceding such SOFR Determination Date for which SOFR was published

  (b)to the extent that, immediately prior to giving effect to the provisions of this Exhibit A, the Existing Note or any other Existing Document required or permitted the request, making and maintenance of any type of Credit Extension as a USD LIBOR Daily Credit Extension, that type of Credit Extension shall be available, and may be requested, made and maintained, as a SOFR Daily Credit Extension, subject to satisfaction of the applicable provisions (including conditions precedent to Credit Extensions) of the Amended Agreement and any other applicable Amended Document, and

   

  (c)any term or provision of the Existing Note or any other Existing Document (other than as used in a USD LIBOR Related Definition or BSBY Screen Rate Related Definition that has been deleted pursuant to the terms of this Exhibit A) that refers or is applicable to a USD LIBOR Daily Credit Extension or other Credit Extension immediately prior to giving effect to the provisions of the Thirteenth Amended and Restated Line of Credit Note on the Effective Date shall refer to and be applicable to a SOFR Daily Credit Extension unless, and to the extent that, such term or provision is expressly superseded or otherwise modified by the Thirteenth Amended and Restated Line of Credit Note, in which case, such term or provision shall to such extent be construed as so superseded or otherwise modified as set forth in the Thirteenth Amended and Restated Line of Credit Note.

  (e)London Interbank Market.

  Article V. Additional Provisions.

  Section 5.1	Rate Unascertainable; Increased Costs; Illegality; Benchmark Replacement Setting.

  (a)Unascertainable; Increased Costs. If, on or after the Effective Date:

  (ii)the Bank shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that (x) Daily Simple SOFR cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof; or (y) a fundamental change has occurred with respect to Daily Simple SOFR (including, without limitation, changes in national or international financial, political or economic conditions), or

  (iii)the Bank determines that for any reason in connection with any request for a Credit Extension or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Daily Simple SOFR with respect to a proposed SOFR Daily Credit Extension does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Bank of funding, establishing or maintaining such Credit Extension, 

  then the Bank shall have the rights specified in Section 5.1(c) of this Exhibit A.

  (b)Illegality. If on or after the Effective Date the Bank shall have determined, or any Official Body shall have asserted, that the making, maintenance or funding of any Credit Extension, or the determination or charging of interest rates based on Daily Simple SOFR, has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by the Bank in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), then the Bank shall have the rights specified in Section 5.1(c) of this Exhibit A.

  (c)Bank’s Rights. In the case of any event specified in Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b) of this Exhibit A, the Bank shall promptly so notify the Borrower thereof.

  (i)Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of the Bank to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a SOFR Daily Credit Extension shall be suspended until the Bank shall have later notified the Borrower of the Bank’s determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist.

  (ii)If at any time the Bank makes a determination under Section 5.1(a) of this Exhibit A, then (a) if the Borrower has previously notified the Bank of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Credit Extension that has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Base Rate Credit Extension in the amount specified therein, and (b) any outstanding Credit Extensions shall be converted into a Base Rate Credit Extension immediately.

  (iii)If the Bank notifies the Borrower of a determination under Section 5.1(b) of this Exhibit A, the Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification obligations under the Amended Agreement, as to any Credit Extension which is a SOFR Daily Credit Extension, on the date specified in such notice either convert such SOFR Daily Credit Extension to a Base Rate Credit Extension or prepay such SOFR Daily Credit Extension in accordance with the Amended Agreement. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Credit Extension shall automatically be converted to a Base Rate Credit Extension upon such specified date.

  (d)Benchmark Replacement Setting.

  (i)Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Amended Agreement or in any other Amended Document, if Bank determines that a Benchmark Transition Event has 

  - 45 -

  4860-5705-5533, v.3

  

   

  occurred on or after the Effective Date with respect to a Benchmark, then the Bank may amend the Amended Agreement to replace such Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement; and any such amendment shall be in writing, shall specify the date that the Benchmark Replacement is effective and will not require any further action or consent of any other party to the Amended Agreement or any other Amended Document.

  (ii)Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Bank will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Amended Agreement or in any other Amended Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to the Amended Agreement, the Thirteenth Amended and Restated Line of Credit Note or any other Amended Document.

  (iii)Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Bank will promptly notify the Borrower of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, and (B) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Bank will notify the Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (iv) below and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Bank pursuant to this Section 5.1(d) of this Exhibit A, 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 selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from any other party to the Amended Agreement, the Thirteenth Amended and Restated Line of Credit Note or any other Amended Document.

  (iv)Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Amended Agreement or in any other Amended Document, at any time after the Effective Date (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then- current Benchmark is a term rate and either (I) 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 Bank in its reasonable discretion or (II) 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 not or will not be representative, then the Bank may modify the available interest periods for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor; and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (I) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (II) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Bank may, for all Benchmark settings at or after such time, reinstate such previously removed tenor.

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

(d)           For
the purposes of the definitions of “Canadian Lender”, “Excluded Taxes” and “Foreign Lender”, the provisions
of Article III and the provisions of Section 11.06(c) and Section 11.06(d), (i) the term
 “Lender” shall be deemed to include any Lender in such Lender’s capacity as such, and (ii) the term “Loan”
shall be deemed to include any Borrowing. Any reference herein to a borrowing shall include a borrowing by way of continuation.

 

(e)           Any
reference herein to a merger, transfer, consolidation, amalgamation, consolidation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar
term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited
liability company (or the unwinding of such a division or allocation), as if it were a merger, transfer, consolidation, amalgamation,
consolidation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, as applicable, to, of or with a separate Person. Any division
of a limited liability company shall constitute a separate Person hereunder (and each division of any limited liability company that is
a Subsidiary, joint venture or any other like term shall also constitute such a Person or entity).

 

Section 1.03         Accounting
Terms.

 

(a)           Generally.
All accounting terms not specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including
financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity
with, GAAP applied on a consistent basis, as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the
Audited Financial Statements, except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of
determining compliance with any covenant or financial ratio (including the computation of any financial covenant and the determination
of the Applicable Rate) contained herein, Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be carried at one
hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding principal amount thereof, and the effects of FASB ASC 825 on financial liabilities shall be
disregarded.

 

    	 	29	 

     

    

 

(b)           Changes
in GAAP. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan
Document, and either the Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in
good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the
approval of the Required Lenders); provided, that until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed
in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Borrower shall provide to the Agent and the Lenders financial statements
and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations
of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. Without limiting the foregoing, leases shall
continue to be classified and accounted for on a basis consistent with that reflected in the Audited Financial Statements for all purposes
of this Agreement, notwithstanding any change in GAAP relating thereto, unless the parties hereto shall enter into a mutually acceptable
amendment addressing such changes, as provided for above.

 

(c)           Consolidation
of Variable Interest Entities. All references herein to consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or
to the determination of any amount for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis or any similar reference shall, in each
case, be deemed to include each variable interest entity that the Borrower is required to consolidate pursuant to FASB ASC 810 as if such
variable interest entity were a Subsidiary as defined herein.

 

Section 1.04         Rounding.
Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Consolidated Group pursuant to this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the
appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed
herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number).

 

Section 1.05         Times
of Day. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be references
to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable).

 

Section 1.06         [Reserved].

 

Section 1.07         [Reserved].

 

Section 1.08         Currency.
Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all references to currency (without further description) are to lawful money of the United
States.

 

Section 1.09         Classification
of Loans and Borrowings. For purposes of this Agreement, Loans may be classified and referred
to by Type (e.g., a “Term SOFR Loan”).
Borrowings also may be classified and referred to by Type (e.g., a “
Term SOFR Borrowing”).

 

Section 1.10         Interest
Rates. The Agent does not warrant, nor accept responsibility, nor shall the Agent have any liability
with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to any reference rate referred to herein or with respect to
any rate (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the selection  of
such rate and any related spread or other adjustment) that is an alternative or replacement for or successor to any such rate (including,
without limitation, any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing) or the effect of any of the foregoing, or of any Conforming
Changes. The Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions or other activities that affect any reference
rate referred to herein, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including, without limitation, any Successor Rate) (or any
component of any of the foregoing) or any related spread or other adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. 
The Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any reference rate referred to herein or
any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including, without limitation, any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of
the foregoing), 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 other action or omission
related to or affecting the selection, determination, or calculation of any rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information
source or service.

ARTICLE II

THE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS

 

Section 2.01         The
Term Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees
to make a single term loan in U.S. Dollars to the Borrower on the Closing Date (each such loan, a “Term
Loan” and all such loans together, the “Term
Loan” or the “Term
Loans” as the context may require) not to exceed such Lender’s
Commitment, and upon the occurrence of the Closing Date and making of such Term Loans, the Commitment of such Lender as of the Closing
Date shall be automatically terminated. The Borrowing shall consist of Term Loans made simultaneously by the Lenders on the Closing Date
in accordance with their respective Commitments. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01
and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Term Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans as further provided herein. The Borrower
promises to pay to the Agent, as applicable, for the account of the Lenders, in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages,
all amounts due under the Term Loan on the Maturity Date applicable to the Term Loan or such earlier date as is required hereunder.

 

Section 2.02         Borrowings,
Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

 

(a)           Each
Borrowing, each conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Term SOFR Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s
irrevocable notice to the Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone, or (B) a Loan Notice; provided that any telephonic
notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Agent of a Loan Notice. Each such Loan Notice must be received by the Agent (i) not
later than 1:00 p.m. not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation
of Term SOFR Loans or of any conversion of Term SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested
date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans shall be in a principal
amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be
in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Loan Notice (telephonic or written) shall
specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Borrowing, a conversion of Loans from one Type to the other or a continuation of
Term SOFR Loan, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business
Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to
which existing Loans are to be converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the
Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Loan Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or
continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate
Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Term SOFR Loans. If the
Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Term SOFR Loans in any such Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest
Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month. If any Term Loans being extended on the Closing
Date will be Term SOFR Loans, the Borrower shall deliver a funding indemnity letter at least three (3) Business Days prior to the
anticipated Closing Date, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

 

    	 	31	 

     

    

 

(b)           Following
receipt of a Loan Notice, the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Applicable Percentage of the Loans, and if
no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any
automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in the preceding subsection. In the case of a Borrowing, each Lender shall make the
amount of its Loan available to the Agent in immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars at the Agent’s Office not later than 10:00
a.m. on the Closing Date (or such later time as may be agreed by the Agent). Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth
in Section 4.01, the Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Agent
either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the Agent with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer
of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Agent by the Borrower.

 

(c)           Except
as otherwise provided herein, a Term SOFR Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Term
SOFR Loan. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued
as Term SOFR Loans without the consent of the Required Lenders.

 

(d)           The
Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Term SOFR Loans upon
determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders
of any change in the Agent’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

 

(e)           After
giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type,
unless the Agent otherwise consents, there shall not be more than fifteen (15) Interest Periods in effect with respect to all Loans.

 

(f)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or any portion of its Loans in connection
with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless
settlement mechanism approved by the Borrower, the Agent, and such Lender.

 

    	 	32	 

     

    

 

(g)           With
respect to SOFR or Term SOFR, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without
any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, with respect to any such
amendment effected, the Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Borrower and the Lenders reasonably
promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

 

Section 2.03         [Reserved].

 

Section 2.04         [Reserved].

 

Section 2.05         [Reserved].

 

Section 2.06         Prepayments.
The Borrower may, upon notice to the Agent, at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay the Loans in whole or in part without
premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be
in a form reasonably acceptable to the Agent and be received by the Agent not later than (x) 1:00
p.m. three (3) Business
Days prior to any date of prepayment of Term SOFR Loans and (y) 11:00
a.m. on any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans (and otherwise,
one Business Days’ notice shall be required for any such prepayment);
(B) any such prepayment of Term SOFR Loans shall be in a principal
amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (C) any
prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof or, in each
case if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify (x) the
date and amount of such prepayment, (y) the Type(s) of
Loans to be prepaid and (z) if Term SOFR Loans are to be prepaid,
the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Agent will promptly notify
each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s
ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage). If such notice is given, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be
due and payable on the date specified therein; provided, that any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the
effectiveness of other credit facilities, debt issuances or incurrences, equity issuances or the occurrence of any other identifiable
transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified effective
date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any prepayment of a Term SOFR Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount
prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.
Subject to Section 2.19, each such prepayment of the Loan
shall be applied to the Loan and shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages of the Loan.

 

Section 2.07         [Reserved].

 

Section 2.08         Repayment
of Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal
amount of the Loans outstanding on such date.

 

Section 2.09         Interest.

 

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

 

    	 	33	 

     

    

 

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

 

(ii)            If
any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (including by giving
effect to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required
Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

 

(iii)            Accrued
and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand given by the Agent
to the Borrower.

 

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

 

Section 2.10         Fees.
The Borrower shall pay to each Arranger and the Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified
in the Fee Letters (or other applicable fee letter executed by the Borrower). Unless specified to the contrary in such letters, such fees
shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

 

Section 2.11         Computation
of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate.

 

(a)           All
computations of interest for Term SOFR Loans shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more
fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). The computation of (i) interest on
Base Rate Loans and (ii) all other fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be,
and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or
any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day
on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.13(a), bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination by the Agent
of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

(b)           [Reserved].

 

    	 	34	 

     

    

 

(c)           To
the extent permitted by applicable law, any provision of the Interest Act (Canada) which restricts any rate of interest set forth
herein shall be inapplicable to this Agreement and is hereby waived by the Borrower.

 

(d)           The
principle of deemed reinvestment shall not apply to the calculation of interest or payment of fees or other amounts hereunder, notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement, acceptance or other evidence of indebtedness or in any other Loan Document now or hereafter taken
by the Agent or any Lender for the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, or any other instrument referred to herein, and all
interest and fees payable by the Borrower to the Lenders, shall accrue from day to day, computed as described herein in accordance with
the “nominal rate” method of interest calculation and not effective rates or yields.

 

(e)           For
the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever a rate of interest or fee rate hereunder is calculated on the basis of a
year (the “deemed year”) that contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such
rate of interest or fee rate shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest or fee rate by the actual number
of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year.

 

Section 2.12         Evidence
of Debt. The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records
maintained by such Lender and by the Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Agent and each
Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments
thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower
hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained
by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Agent shall control
in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such
Lender (through the Agent) a Term Note, which shall evidence such Loan, as applicable, in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender
may attach schedules to its Term Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments
with respect thereto.

 

Section 2.13         Payments
Generally; the Agent’s Clawback.

 

(a)           General.
All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction (subject to Section 3.01)
for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder
shall be made to the Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Agent’s Office in U.S.
Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 Noon on the date specified herein. The Agent will promptly distribute
to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire
transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Agent after 12:00 Noon shall be deemed received on the next
succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come
due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be
reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

 

    	 	35	 

     

    

 

(b)           (i) Funding
by the Lenders; Presumption by the Agent. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of
any Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 Noon on the date of such Borrowing)
that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender
has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 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 Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding
amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to
the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater
of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation,
plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Agent in connection with the foregoing and (B) in
the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans, as applicable. If the Borrower and
such Lender shall pay such interest to the Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the 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 Agent,
then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan. 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 Agent.

 

(ii)            Payments
by the Borrower; Presumptions by the Agent. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which
any payment is due to the Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the 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 the amount due.

 

With respect to any payment that the Agent makes
for the account of the Lenders hereunder as to which the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error)
that any of the following applies (such payment referred to as the “Rescindable Amount”): (1) the Borrower has
not in fact made such payment; (2) the Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount so paid by the Borrower (whether or not then
owed); or (3) the Agent have for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the Lenders, as the case may be,
severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to such Lender in accordance with Section 9.11.

 

(iii)            A
notice of the Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under Section 2.13(b) shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error.

 

(c)           Failure
to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided
in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Agent because
the conditions to the applicable Borrowing set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms
hereof, the Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

 

    	 	36	 

     

    

 

(d)           Obligations
of the Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make the Loans and to make payments under Section 11.04(c) are
several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under Section 11.04(c) on any
date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall
be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to make its payment under Section 11.04(c). Nothing
contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no action taken by the Lenders and/or the Agent pursuant hereto or thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity or like relationship.

 

(e)           Funding
Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or
to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

 

(f)            Insufficient
Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest
and fees then due or designated to be paid hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees
then due or designated to be paid hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and
fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, toward payment of principal then due or designated to be paid hereunder, ratably
among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

 

Section 2.14         Sharing
of Payments.

 

(a)           If
any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest
on any of the Loans held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans
or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein (taking into account, as necessary,
the pricing applicable to each Lender), then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (x) notify the Agent of such fact,
and (y) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall
be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount
of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

 

(i)             if
any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such
participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest;
and

 

(ii)            the
provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant
to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, the application of funds arising from the
existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (B) any payment of consideration for executing any amendment, waiver or consent in connection
with this Agreement so long as such consideration has been offered to all consenting Lenders.

 

    	 	37	 

     

    

 

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees,
to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements
may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff 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.

Lenders.

 

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

 

(i)             Waivers
and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this
Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 11.01.

 

(ii)            Defaulting
Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting
Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Agent by such
Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.08, shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows:
first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may
request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has
failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; third, if so determined by the Agent
and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting
Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts
owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender
as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event
of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under
this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Any payments,
prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender
pursuant to this Section 2.19(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender
irrevocably consents hereto.

 

    	 	38	 

     

    

 

(b)           Defaulting
Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify
the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that
Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans, of the other Lenders or take such other actions
as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable
Percentages, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, that no adjustments will be made retroactively
with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,
further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender
to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting
Lender.

 

ARTICLE III

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

 

Section 3.01         Taxes.

 

(a)           Payments
Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

 

(i)             Any
and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding
for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Borrower
or the Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Agent or the Borrower (including any withholding
or deduction imposed on any payment made under an intercompany loan or other financing (including, without limitation, any equity financing)
with or among Subsidiaries of the Borrower due to any Subsidiary of the Borrower being treated as or as if it were a borrower or co-borrower
in respect of any Obligations under the Code or applicable Treasury regulations), then the Agent or the Borrower shall be entitled to
make such deduction or withholding, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

 

(ii)            If
the Borrower or the Agent shall be so required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup
withholding and withholding taxes (including any withholding or deduction imposed on any payment made under an intercompany loan or other
financing (including, without limitation, any equity financing) with or among Subsidiaries of the Borrower due to any Subsidiary of the
Borrower being treated as or as if it were a borrower or co-borrower in respect of any Obligations under the Code or applicable Treasury
regulations), from any payment, then (A) the Borrower or the Agent, as applicable, shall withhold or make such deductions as are
determined by it to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below,
(B) the Borrower or the Agent, as applicable, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified
Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such required withholding or the making of all such
required deductions (including such deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable
Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

 

    	 	39	 

     

    

 

(iii)           If
the Borrower or the Agent shall be required by any applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment,
then (A) the Borrower or the Agent, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be
required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the Borrower
or the Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified
Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased (in the case of any Indemnified Taxes arising under the ITA, as a payment of
additional interest) as necessary so that after such required withholding or the making of all such required deductions (including such
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal
to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

 

(b)           Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay
to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment
of, any Other Taxes.

 

(c)           Tax
Indemnifications.

 

(i)             Without
duplication of any indemnity in Section 3.01(a), the Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify each Recipient, and shall
make payment in respect thereof within ten (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 3.01) payable or paid by such
Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties, interest and 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; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to make payment to such Recipient
pursuant to this Section 3.01 in respect of penalties, interest and other similar liabilities attributable to any Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes if (A) written demand therefor has not been made by such Recipient within one hundred eighty (180) days after
the date on which such Recipient received written notice of the imposition of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the relevant Governmental
Authority, but only to the extent such penalties, interest and other similar liabilities are attributable to such failure or delay by
such Recipient in making such written demand, or (B) such penalties, interest and other similar liabilities are attributable to the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Recipient or its Affiliates as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final
and nonappealable judgment. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a
copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower
shall, and does hereby indemnify the Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor,
for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Agent as required pursuant to Section 3.01(c)(ii);
provided that the Agent shall first make written demand for such amount from such Lender and such Lender shall indemnify the Borrower
to the extent of any such payment by the Borrower pursuant to this sentence with respect to Taxes described in clauses (y) and
(z) of Section 3.01(c)(ii).

 

    	 	40	 

     

    

 

(ii)            Each
Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, (w) the
Agent and the Borrower or its Subsidiaries for any Excluded Taxes resulting from such Lender’s breach of Section 3.01(e)(ii)(E),
(x) the Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already
indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (y) the Agent and
the Borrower, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.06(d) relating
to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) the Agent and the Borrower, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable
to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent or the Borrower 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 Agent shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Agent under this clause (ii).

 

(d)           Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or by the Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided
in this Section 3.01, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent (but only to the extent available to the Borrower with respect
to any such payment made by the Agent) the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing
such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to
the Agent.

 

(e)           Status
of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

 

(i)              Any
Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document (including
any such exemption or reduction to which such Lender would be entitled if any Domestic Subsidiary were treated as or as if it were a borrower
or co-borrower in respect of any Obligations under the Code or applicable Treasury regulations) shall deliver to the Borrower (or any
such Domestic Subsidiary) and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower (or any such Domestic Subsidiary) or
the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower, such Domestic Subsidiary or the 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, such Domestic Subsidiary or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law
or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such Domestic Subsidiary or the Agent as will enable the Borrower, such Domestic Subsidiary or
the 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 3.01(e)(ii)(A), (e)(ii)(B) and (e)(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.

 

    	 	41	 

     

    

 

(ii)            Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing,

 

(A)          any
Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the 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 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 and any Canadian Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in
such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender or Canadian Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever
of the following is applicable:

 

(I)              in
the case of a Foreign Lender or a Canadian Lender entitled to claim the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is
a party (or which would be entitled to claim such benefits if a Domestic Subsidiary or other Subsidiary of the Borrower were treated as
or as if it were a borrower or co-borrower in respect of any Obligations under the Code or applicable Treasury regulations) (x) with
respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing
a complete exemption from 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 (including due to any Domestic Subsidiary or other Subsidiary of the
Borrower being treated as or as if it were a borrower or co-borrower in respect of any Obligations under the Code or applicable Treasury
regulations), IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax
pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

 

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

 

(III)           in
the case of a Foreign Lender or a Canadian Lender entitled to claim the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
the Code (or which would be entitled to claim such benefits if a Domestic Subsidiary or other Subsidiary of the Borrower were treated
as or as if it were a borrower or co-borrower in respect of any Obligations under the Code or applicable Treasury regulations), (x) a
certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the
meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower or such Domestic Subsidiary
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-E (or W-8BEN, as
applicable); or

 

    	 	42	 

     

    

 

(IV)           to
the extent a Foreign Lender or a Canadian Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by
IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form
of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial
owner, as applicable, in each case, establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax; provided, that if the
Foreign Lender or Canadian Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio
interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on
behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

 

(C)            any
Foreign Lender or Canadian Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such
number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) 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 Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed
by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax (including any such withholding
Tax that would apply if any Domestic Subsidiary or other Subsidiary of the Borrower were treated as or as if it were a borrower or co-borrower
in respect of any Obligations under the Code or applicable Treasury regulations) or exemption from or reduction in any non-U.S. withholding
Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the
Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

 

(D)            if
a payment made to the Agent or a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if the
Agent or 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), including if any Domestic Subsidiary or other Subsidiary of the Borrower were treated as or
as if it were a borrower or co-borrower in respect of any Obligations under the Code or applicable Treasury regulations, the Agent or
Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested
by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of
the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and
the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that the Agent or Lender has complied with the Agent’s or
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. For purposes of determining
withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date, the Borrower and the Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby
authorize the Agent to treat) the Loans and this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning
of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

 

(E)            each
Foreign Lender and each Canadian Lender represents and warrants that, as of the date such Lender first becomes a Lender hereunder, it
would be entitled to provide the documentation described in clause (B), (C) or (D) hereof with respect to any Domestic Subsidiary
or other Subsidiary of the Borrower if such Domestic Subsidiary or Subsidiary were treated as or as if it were a borrower or co-borrower
in respect of any Obligations under the Code to the effect that such Lender is entitled to a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding
Tax (including pursuant to FATCA). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Lender that breaches the representations under the
preceding sentence, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be entitled to impose U.S. withholding taxes (without a corresponding gross-up)
and shall not be obligated to indemnify such Lender under this Section 3.01.

 

    	 	43	 

     

    

 

(iii)           Each
Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete
or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its
legal inability to do so.

 

(iv)           Without
limiting the foregoing, any Domestic Subsidiary shall be permitted to rely on any documentation provided to Borrower and any Borrower
shall be permitted to rely on any documentation provided to any Domestic Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 3.01.

 

(f)            Treatment
of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue
on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account
of such Lender. If any Recipient 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 by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this
Section 3.01, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made,
or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund),
net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by
the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees
to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority)
to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to
this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient 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 subsection shall not be construed
to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential)
to the Borrower or any other Person.

 

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

 

Section 3.02         Illegality.
If any Lender reasonably determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to SOFR or Term
SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR or Term SOFR, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower
(through the Agent), (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or
continue Term SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended, and (b) if
such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference
to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such
illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies
the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the
Borrower shall, upon demand (after presentation of a reasonably detailed invoice) from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), at the
Borrower’s option, prepay or, if applicable, convert all Term SOFR
Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality,
be determined by the Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period
therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loan to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully
continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loan and (ii) if such notice
asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon SOFR, the Agent shall during the period of such
suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Term SOFR component thereof until the Agent is advised
in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR. Upon any
such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional
amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

 

    	 	44	 

     

    

 

Section 3.03         Inability
to Determine Rates.

 

(a)           If
in connection with any request for a Term SOFR Loan or a conversion of Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans or a continuation of any of
such Loans, as applicable, (i) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) no
Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with Section 3.03(b), and the circumstances under clause (i) of Section 3.03(b) or
the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred, or (B) adequate and reasonable means do not otherwise exist for determining Term
SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate
Loan, or (C) that “Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or (ii) the Agent or the
Required Lenders determine that for any reason the Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Loan does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.
Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Term SOFR Loans, or to convert Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans,
shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described
in the preceding sentence with respect to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Term SOFR component in determining
the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in
the preceding clause (ii) of this Section 3.03(a), until the Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes
such notice.       Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower
may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to, or continuation of Term SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected
Term SOFR Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of
Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding Term SOFR Loans shall be deemed to have been converted to
Base Rate Loans immediately at the end of their respective applicable Interest Period.

 

    	 	45	 

     

    

 

(b)           Replacement
of Term SOFR or Successor Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Agent
determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Agent (with,
in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

 

(i)             adequate
and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining one month, three month and six month interest periods of Term SOFR, including, without
limitation, because the Term SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to
be temporary; or

 

(ii)            CME
or any successor administrator of the Term SOFR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Agent or such administrator
with respect to its publication of Term SOFR, in each case acting in such capacity, has made a public statement identifying a specific
date after which one month, three month and six month interest periods of Term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate shall or will no longer
be made available, or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of U.S. dollar denominated syndicated loans, or shall or
will otherwise cease, provided that, in each case, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory
to the Agent that will continue to provide such interest periods of Term SOFR after such specific date (the latest date on which one month,
three month and six month interest periods of Term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate are no longer available permanently or indefinitely,
the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”);

 

then,
on a date and time determined by the Agent (any such date, the “Term SOFR Replacement Date”), which date shall be at
the end of an Interest Period or on the relevant interest payment date, as applicable, for interest calculated and, solely with
respect to clause (ii) above, no later than the Scheduled Unavailability Date, Term SOFR will be replaced hereunder and under any
Loan Document with Daily Simple SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment for any payment period for interest calculated that can be determined
by the Agent, in each case, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document (the “Successor Rate”).

 

If the Successor Rate is Daily
Simple SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

 

Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, (i) if the Agent determines that Daily Simple SOFR is not available on or prior to the Term SOFR Replacement
Date, or (ii) if the events or circumstances of the type described in Section 3.03(b)(i) or (ii) have
occurred with respect to the Successor Rate then in effect, then in each case, the Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement solely
for the purpose of replacing Term SOFR or any then current Successor Rate in accordance with this Section 3.03 at the end
of any Interest Period, relevant interest payment date or payment period for interest calculated, as applicable, with an alternative benchmark
rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities syndicated
and agented in the United States for such alternative benchmark. and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to
such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities
syndicated and agented in the United States for such benchmark, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published
on an information service as selected by the Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated. For
the avoidance of doubt, any such proposed rate and adjustments, shall constitute a “Successor Rate”. Any such amendment
shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders
and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Agent written notice that such
Required Lenders object to such amendment.

The Agent will promptly (in
one or more notices) notify the Borrower and each Lender of the implementation of any Successor Rate.

 

Any
Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is
not administratively feasible for the Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the
Agent in consultation with the Borrower.

 

Notwithstanding
anything else herein, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than zero, the Successor Rate
will be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

In connection with the implementation
of a Successor Rate, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action
or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Agent shall post
each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes
effective.

 

Section 3.04         Increased
Costs.

 

(a)           Increased
Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

 

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

 

(ii)            subject
any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (e) of
the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments or other
obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

 

(iii)           impose
on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Term SOFR Loans made by such Lender;

 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be
to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to
make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest
or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

 

    	 	47	 

     

    

 

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

 

(c)           Certificates
for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding
company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 3.04, together
with a brief explanation for the increased costs and the basis for the calculation thereof, and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after
receipt thereof.

 

(d)           Delay
in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04
shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be
required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04 for any increased costs incurred
or reductions suffered more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change
in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that,
if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one hundred and eighty (180) day period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

 

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

 

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

 

(b)           any
failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any
Term SOFR Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower and/or required hereunder; or

 

    	 	48	 

     

    

 

(c)           any
assignment of a Term SOFR Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower
pursuant to Section 11.01 or 11.13;

 

including any cost or expense arising from the
liquidation, or redeployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such
funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.
This Section 3.05 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, liabilities, claims, damages,
expenses, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

 

Section 3.06         Mitigation
Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

 

(a)           Designation
of a Different Lending Office. Each Lender may make Loans to the Borrower through any Lending Office, provided that the exercise of
this option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any
Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts
to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, fails to comply with Section 3.01(e),
or gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then at the request of the Borrower such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to
designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another
of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or
reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for
the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed
cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

 

(b)           Replacement
of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if 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 3.01,
or if any Lender breaches any of its representations in Section 3.01(e)(ii)(E), or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to
Section 3.02, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance
with Section 3.06(a), the Borrower may replace or remove such Lender in accordance with Section 11.13.

 

Section 3.07         Survival.
All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III
shall survive termination of the aggregate Commitments and other Loans advanced hereunder from time to time and the repayment of all other
Obligations hereunder, only if such Obligations accrue prior to the termination of this Agreement and the repayment in full of all Obligations
outstanding hereunder and the resignation of the Agent.

as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Borrower, nor its Material Subsidiaries, nor any operator

employer and employee contributions and premiums required to be remitted or paid to, or in respect of, any Canadian Pension Plan or other
plan required under Canadian federal, provincial or territorial health, workers’ compensation and employment insurance legislation

The Borrower shall promptly
notify the Agent and each Lender of any change in the information in a Beneficial Ownership Certification, if previously provided,
that would result in a change to the list of beneficial owners identified in parts (c) or (d) of such certification.

 

    	 	61	 

     

    

 

The
Borrower shall be deemed to have delivered reports and other information referred to in clauses (a), (b), and (d)
of this Section 6.04 when (A) such reports or other information have been posted on the Internet website of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (http://www.sec.gov) (or, if applicable, the Canadian equivalent thereof) or on Borrower’s
Internet website as previously identified to the Agent and Lenders and (B) the Borrower has notified the Agent by electronic mail
of such posting.

 

The
Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the Agent and/or the Arrangers may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to
the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”)
by posting the Borrower Materials on Syndtrak, ClearPar, or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”)
and (b) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material
non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who
may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities. The Borrower hereby agrees
that (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC”
which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by
marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders
to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary)
with respect to the Borrower or their securities for purposes of United States Federal, Canadian Federal, provincial, territorial and
state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall
be treated as set forth in Section 11.07); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be
made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and (z) the Agent and the Arrangers
shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion
of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be under no obligation
to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”

 

Section 6.05         Legal
Existence and Conduct of Business. Except as otherwise permitted by Section 7.04, the Borrower
will, and will cause each of its Material Subsidiaries to, do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force
and effect its legal existence, legal rights and franchises; effect and maintain its foreign qualifications, licensing, domestication
or authorization except as terminated by the Borrower’s or its Material Subsidiaries’ board of directors (or similar governing
body) in the exercise of its reasonable judgment and except where the failure of the Borrower or its Material Subsidiaries to remain so
qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and shall not become obligated under any contract or binding arrangement which, at
the time it was entered into would have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, continue to
engage primarily in the businesses conducted by it on the Closing Date and in related businesses, except to the extent otherwise permitted
under Sections 7.03 and 7.04.

 

Section 6.06         Maintenance
of Properties. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Material Subsidiaries to, cause
all material properties used or useful in the conduct of their businesses to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working
order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and
improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Borrower and its Material Subsidiaries may be necessary so that the businesses carried
on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in
this section shall prevent the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from discontinuing the operation and maintenance of any of their properties
if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, desirable in the conduct of their business and which does
not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

    	 	62	 

     

    

 

Section 6.07         Insurance.
The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies (or be
self-insured or otherwise have an insurance program involving an Insurance Entity), funds or underwriters insurance of the kinds, covering
the risks (other than risks arising out of or in any way connected with personal liability of any officers and directors thereof) and
in the relative proportionate amounts typically carried by reasonable and prudent companies conducting businesses similar to that of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries. In addition, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries will furnish from time to time, upon the Agent’s reasonable
request, a summary of their insurance coverage.

 

Section 6.08         Taxes.
The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, duly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, before any
material penalty accrues thereon, all Taxes (other than Taxes which in the aggregate are not material to the business or assets of the
Borrower or any Material Subsidiary on an individual basis or of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) imposed upon
it and its real properties, sales and activities, or any material part thereof, or upon the income or profits therefrom, as well as all
claims for labor, materials, or supplies, which if unpaid might by law become a Lien or charge upon any material portion of its property,
unless such Lien is a Permitted Lien; provided, however, that any such Tax or claim need not be paid if the validity or
amount thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and if the Borrower or such Subsidiary shall have
set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto; and provided further, that the Borrower or such Subsidiary will
pay all such Taxes or claims prior to foreclosure upon any Lien which may have attached as security therefor.

 

Section 6.09         Inspection
of Properties, Books, Etc. The Borrower will, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to permit the
Agent or any other designated representative of the Lenders (including any Lender), upon reasonable notice and during normal business
hours, to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, to examine their books of account (and, if any
Default or Event of Default exists, to make copies thereof and extracts therefrom (in each case, subject to compliance with confidentiality
agreements and applicable copyright laws)), and to discuss their affairs, finances and accounts with, and to be advised as to the same
by, their officers, all at such reasonable times and intervals as the Lenders or the Agent may reasonably request; provided, however,
prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall not be required to pay the expenses associated with more than one
such visitation and inspection by the Agent or any other designated representative of the Lenders (including any Lender) during any calendar
year; provided, further, however, that when an Event of Default exists the Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective representatives
or independent contractors) may do any of the foregoing at the expense of the Borrower at any time during normal business hours and without
advance notice.

 

    	 	63

all applicable Laws (including Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits) except, in the case of subsections (i) (solely
for non-compliance with the provisions of its Organization Documents by a Person other than the Borrower or a Material Subsidiary), (ii) and
(iii), where noncompliance with such Organization Documents, applicable agreements, instruments and Laws would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. If at any time while any Loan is outstanding or any Lender or the Agent has any obligation
to make Loans hereunder, any authorization, consent, approval, permit or license from any Governmental Authority shall become necessary
or required in order that the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary may fulfill any of their obligations hereunder, the Borrower will immediately
take or cause to be taken all reasonable steps within the power of the Borrower or such Material Subsidiary to obtain such authorization,
consent, approval, permit or license and furnish the Lenders with evidence thereof.

 

Section 6.11         Environmental
Indemnification. The Borrower, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, covenants
and agrees that it will indemnify and hold the Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all claims, expense, damage, loss
or liability incurred by the Agent or the Lenders (including all costs of legal representation) relating to (a) any Release or threatened
Release of Hazardous Materials on the Real Estate; (b) any violation of any Environmental Laws with respect to conditions at the
Real Estate or the operations conducted thereon; (c) the investigation or remediation of offsite locations at which the Borrower,
any of its Subsidiaries, or its predecessors are alleged to have directly or indirectly disposed of Hazardous Materials; or (d) any
Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, except, in each case, to the extent that such
claim, expense, damage, loss or liability is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or the Lenders. It is expressly acknowledged by the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries that this covenant shall survive any foreclosure or any modification, release or discharge of the Loan Documents or
the payment of the Loans and shall inure to the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and their successors and permitted assigns.

 

Section 6.12         Further
Assurances. The Borrower will cooperate with the Agent and the Lenders and execute such further
instruments and documents as the Lenders or the Agent shall reasonably request to carry out to the Lenders’ satisfaction the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

litigation (including without limitation any alleged violation of any Environmental Law or any dispute, litigation, investigation or
proceeding between the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and any Governmental Authority), wherein the potential liability would reasonably
be expected to be in excess of U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $50,000,000, together with a copy of each such notice received by the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries.

$50,000,000; (iii) upon receipt of any notice of violation of any Environmental Laws or of any Release or threat of Release of
Hazardous Materials, including a notice or claim of liability or potential responsibility from any third party (including without

with regard to (A) operation of the Real Estate, (B) contamination on, from or into the Real Estate, or
(C) investigation or remediation of offsite locations at which the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its predecessors

has been incurred by such Governmental Authority in connection with the assessment, containment, removal or remediation of any
Hazardous Materials with respect to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries would reasonably be expected to have liability in
excess of U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $50,000,000 or for which a Lien for a like amount could reasonably be expected to be imposed on
the Real Estate.

evidencing Indebtedness in excess of U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $100,000,000 as to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a
party or obligor, whether as principal or surety, the Borrower shall forthwith give written notice thereof to the Lenders, describing
the notice or action and the nature of the claimed default.

event of an acquisition permitted under Section 7.03 and
Section 7.04 involving aggregate consideration in excess
of the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $200,000,000 occurring during a fiscal quarter, then the Borrower shall have the right to increase the
maximum permitted Leverage Ratio required to be maintained under this Section 7.14
to 4.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter in which such permitted acquisition is consummated (the “Trigger
Quarter”) and each of the three fiscal quarters immediately
following the Trigger Quarter (such period, an “Elevated Leverage
Ratio Period”), and the maximum permitted Leverage Ratio will
thereafter revert to 3.75 to 1.00; provided that there shall be no more than two Elevated Leverage Ratio Periods during the term
of this Agreement; provided further that an Elevated Leverage Ratio Period may not be elected by the Borrower unless there is
at least one fiscal quarter end after the end of the prior Elevated Leverage Ratio Period at which the required Leverage Ratio is less
than or equal to 3.75 to 1.00. Such election shall be made by the delivery of a written notice by the Borrower to the Agent making reference
to this Section 7.14 and notifying the Agent of the Borrower’s
exercise of this right on or prior to the date of the actual or required delivery of a Compliance Certificate for the Trigger Quarter.
Any exercise of the “Elevated Leverage Ratio Period”
under the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement on or after the Closing Date shall trigger an exercise of the Elevated Leverage
Ratio Period under this Section 7.14.

Section 7.18         Canadian
Pension and Benefit Plans.

 

(a)           Without
the prior written consent of the Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, neither the Borrower nor
any of its Subsidiaries organized in Canada shall have any liability in respect of any “multi-employer pension plan,” as that
term is defined in Applicable Canadian Pension Legislation if such liabilities would reasonably be expected to exceed the U.S. Dollar
Equivalent of $50,000,000 in the aggregate;

 

(b)           Without
the prior written consent of the Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, neither the Borrower nor
any of its Subsidiaries organized in Canada shall establish, adopt or agree to contribute to any pension plan with a “defined benefit
provision” (as that term is defined in the ITA) that would be a Canadian Pension Plan if in existence as of the date hereof, or
acquire any Person who sponsors, maintains, administers, or is or may be required to contribute to a pension plan with a “defined
benefit provision” (as that term is defined in the ITA) that would be a Canadian Pension Plan if in existence as of the date hereof,
if the funding deficit in respect of such pension plan, as determined on a hypothetical wind-up basis, if any, would reasonably be expected
to exceed the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $50,000,000 in the aggregate; or

 

    	 	75	 

     

    

 

(c)           Without
the prior written consent of the Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, neither the Borrower nor
any of its Subsidiaries organized in Canada shall take any action to effect the full or partial wind-up or termination, or to cause any
Canadian Governmental Authority to order the full or partial wind-up or termination, of any Canadian Pension Plan with a “defined

all such prepayments, repurchases and redemptions of intercompany financing being subject to Section 11.23 to the extent and

this clause (f) until such time as the consummation of such prepayment, repurchase or redemption connected with such change
of control offer;

exceeds in the aggregate U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $100,000,000 after taking into account any undisputed insurance coverage;

 

    	 	77

all applicable laws, statutes, rules, regulations or court orders or any Non-U.S. Plan is involuntarily terminated or wound up, in either
case giving rise to a liability in excess of U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $50,000,000, or (z) the Borrower or any Subsidiary becomes
subject to the imposition of a material financial penalty (which for this purpose shall mean any tax, penalty or other liability, whether
by way of indemnity or otherwise) with respect to one or more Non-U.S. Plans and any such event or events described in clause (iii) above,

from an acquisition, merger, amalgamation or consolidation permitted under Section 7.04 shall not constitute a Default or
an Event of Default hereunder provided that such change of control does not involve any person or group of persons (within the
meaning of Section 13 or 14 of the Exchange Act) acquiring beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated

    	 	78	 

     

    

 

Section 8.02         Remedies
Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Agent shall, at
the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders:

 

(a)           declare
the commitment of each Lender to make Loans to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated;

 

(b)           declare
the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable
hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of
any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; and

 

(c)           exercise
on behalf of itself and the Lenders any other right or remedy available under any other Loan Document, at law, in equity, under any other
instrument, document or agreement or otherwise;

 

provided,
however, that upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower or any of its
Material Subsidiaries under the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), the Winding-Up and Restructuring
Act (Canada) or the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada), each as now and hereafter in effect, or any successors
to such statutes or any similar Debtor Relief Law that imposes any stay on the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or upon
the consummation of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law under which a stay or similar injunction is requested, the obligation of
each Lender to make Loans shall automatically terminate and the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and
other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, in each case without further act of the Agent or any Lender.

 

The rights provided for in this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies provided by law, in
equity, under any other instrument, document or agreement or otherwise, whether now existing or hereafter arising.

 

Section 8.03         Application
of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02
(or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.02),
any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.19,
be applied by the Agent in the following order:

 

First,
to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Agent and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the
Agent in its capacity as such;

 

Second,
to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable
to the Lenders (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of outside counsel to the respective
Lenders and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this
clause Second payable to them;

 

    	 	79	 

     

    

 

Third,
to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and other Obligations arising under
the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to
them;

 

Fourth,
to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, ratably among the Lenders in proportion
to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; and

 

Last,
the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

 

ARTICLE IX

AGENT

 

Section 9.01         Appointment
and Authorization of the Agent. (a) Each
of the Lenders hereby (i) irrevocably appoints Bank of America to
act on its behalf as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) authorizes
the Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof and thereof,
together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article IX
are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of
such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent”
herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary
or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter
of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

 

Section 9.02         Rights
as a Lender. Any Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers
in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent and the term “Lender”
or “the Lenders”
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder
in its individual capacity. Such Person 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 business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other
Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

 

Section 9.03         Exculpatory
Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any Arranger, as applicable, shall have any duties or obligations
except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Agent nor any Arranger, as applicable:

 

(a)           shall
be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

 

    	 	80	 

     

    

 

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

 

(c)           shall
have any duty or responsibility to disclose and be liable for the failure to disclose, to any Lender, any credit or other information
concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Borrower or
any of its Affiliates, that is communicated to, obtained or in the possession of, the Agent, Arrangers or any of their Related Parties
in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent herein;
and

 

(d)           shall
be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number
or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances
as provided in Sections 8.02 and 11.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of
any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Agent by the Borrower or a Lender. The
Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made
in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document
delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants,
agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly
required to be delivered to the Agent.

 

Section 9.04         Reliance
by the Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet
or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated
by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made
by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to
the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent may presume that such condition is
satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.
The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by
it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or
experts.

 

    	 	81	 

     

    

 

Section 9.05         Delegation
of Duties. The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers
hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent
may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory
provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and
to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication
of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Agent. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence
or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment
that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

 

Section 9.06         Resignation
of the Agent.

 

(a)           The
Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation,
the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office
in United States, or an Affiliate or branch of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been
so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of
its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”),
then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications
set forth above, provided that in no event shall any such successor Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor has been
appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

 

(b)           If
the Person serving as the Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders
may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Agent and,
in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and
shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal
Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective
Date.

 

(c)           With
effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed Agent shall
be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral
security held by such Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Agent shall continue to
hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments or other
amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through
the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent
as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and
become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the applicable retiring (or removed) Agent (other than as provided
in Section 3.01(g) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the applicable retiring or
removed Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Agent shall
be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom
as provided above in this Section 9.06). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those
payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After any retiring or removed Agent’s
resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 11.04
shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect
of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while such retiring or removed Agent was acting as Agent and (ii) after
such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including
in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Agent.

 

    	 	82	 

     

    

 

Section 9.07         Non-Reliance
on the Agent and the Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent
nor the Arrangers have made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Agent or the Arrangers hereafter taken, including
any consent to, and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent or the Arrangers to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Agent or
the Arrangers have disclosed material information in their (or their Related Parties’)
possession. Each Lender represents to the Agent and the Arrangers that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the
Arrangers or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own credit analysis of, appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder.
Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Arrangers or any other Lender or any
of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make
its own credit analysis, appraisals and 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, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform
itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Each Lender
represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the
terms of a commercial lending facility and (ii) it is engaged in
making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this Agreement as a Lender for the purpose of
making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender, and
not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument, and each Lender agrees not to assert a
claim in contravention of the foregoing. Each Lender represents and warrants that it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make,
acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender, and either
it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other
facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities.

hereunder.

 

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

 

(a)           to
file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations
that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders
and the Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Agent
and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Agent under Sections 2.10 and 11.04)
allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

 

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

 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments
to the Agent and, in the event that the Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Agent
any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its agents and counsel, and any
other amounts due the Agent under Sections 2.10 and 11.04. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Agent
to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such
proceeding.

(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 Agent
and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

 

(i)             such
Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit
Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments
or this Agreement,

 

    	 	84	 

     

    

 

(ii)            the
transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent
qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts),
PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption
for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined
by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and
performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement,

 

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

 

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

 

(b)          In
addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or
(2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with 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 Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that the Agent is not a fiduciary
with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance
of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Agent
under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

 

Section 9.11         Recovery
of Erroneous Payments. Without limitation of any other provision in this Agreement, if at any
time the Agent makes a payment hereunder in error to any Lender, whether or not in respect of an Obligation due and owing by the Borrower
at such time, where such payment is a Rescindable Amount, then in any such event, each Lender receiving a Rescindable Amount severally
agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount received by such Lender in immediately available funds in the
currency so received, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Rescindable Amount is received by it to but
excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance
with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. Each Lender
irrevocably waives any and all defenses, including any “discharge
for value” (under which a creditor might otherwise claim a right
to retain funds mistakenly paid by a third party in respect of a debt owed by another) or similar defense to its obligation to return
any Rescindable Amount. The Agent shall inform each Lender promptly upon determining that any payment made to such Lender comprised, in
whole or in part, a Rescindable Amount.

consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such
amendment, waiver or consent shall:

 

(a)           waive
any condition set forth in Section 4.01(a) without the written consent of each Lender except that, in the sole discretion
of the Agent, only a waiver by the Agent shall be required with respect to immaterial matters or items noted in any post-closing letter
made available to the Lenders with respect to which the Borrower has given assurances satisfactory to the Agent that such items shall
be delivered promptly following the Closing Date;

 

(b)           extend
or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment after the funding thereof on the Closing Date) without the written

any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment (excluding mandatory prepayments, if any) of principal, interest,

Lender directly affected thereby (it being understood that any vote to rescind acceleration of amounts owing with respect to the Loans
and other Obligations under the Loan Documents shall only require the approval of the Required Lenders);

 

(d)           except
in accordance with Section 3.03, reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or (subject

    	 	86	 

     

    

 

(e)           change
Section 2.14 or Section 8.03 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby
without the written consent of each Lender;

 

(f)           change
any provision of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number
or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent

thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender
shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by
its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other
than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent
of such Lender, and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by

to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Agent and the Borrower (i) to
add one or more additional term loan facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit and all related obligations and

time outstanding in respect of the existing facilities hereunder, and (ii) in connection with the foregoing, to permit, as deemed
appropriate by the Agent and approved by the Required Lenders, the Lenders providing such additional credit facilities to participate
in any required vote or action required to be approved by the Required Lenders or by any other number, percentage or class of Lenders
hereunder.

 

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary,
if the 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 (including the schedules and exhibits thereto), then the 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.

 

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary,
this Agreement may be amended and restated without the consent of any Lender (but with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent) if,
upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so amended and restated),
the Commitments of each Lender have terminated, such Lender shall have no other commitment or obligation hereunder and shall be paid in
full in cash all principal, interest, fees and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement upon or prior

(c)           The
Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO
NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR
ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY
OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS
MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Agent or any of its Related Parties
(collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the
Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials or notices through the Platform, any other electronic platform or electronic messaging
service, or through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender
or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

 

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

 

(e)           Reliance
by the Agent and the Lenders. The Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic notices)
purportedly given by or on behalf of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified
herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof,
as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, each Lender and the Related
Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly
given by or on behalf of the Borrower, except in the case of any of the foregoing Persons who are seeking indemnification hereunder, to
the extent such reliance resulted from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Agent may be
recorded by the Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

 

    	 	89	 

     

    

 

Section 11.03       No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Lender or the Agent to exercise,
and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any
other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The
rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive
of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

 

Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents against the Borrower shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with
such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit
of the Agent and all of the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Agent
from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Agent) hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 11.08 (subject to the
terms of Section 2.14), or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf
during the pendency of a proceeding relative to the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there
is no Person acting as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights
otherwise ascribed to the Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses
(b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.14, any Lender may, with the consent of
the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

 

Section 11.04       Expenses;
Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

 

(a)            Costs
and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay following the receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice (i) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees,
charges and disbursements of one U.S. counsel and one outside Canadian counsel, for the Agent and its Affiliates, collectively), in connection
with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, due diligence, negotiation, execution, delivery and
administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or
thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Agent or any Lender (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges
and disbursements of any counsel for the Agent or any Lender incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby; provided
that for any individual enforcement action or series or related actions, the Borrower shall not be required to pay legal fees, charges
and disbursements of more than one primary outside U.S. counsel and one primary outside Canadian counsel, and any reasonably necessary
local outside counsel (if any), for the Agent and the Lenders collectively, unless the representation of all such Persons by one counsel
would be inappropriate due to the existence of an actual or potential conflict of interest, in which case the Borrower shall also be required
to pay the legal fees, charges and disbursements of additional outside counsel to such conflicted Persons), in connection with the enforcement
or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section,
or (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring
or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

 

    	 	90	 

     

    

 

(b)           Indemnification
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Arranger, 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 settlement costs and the reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee; provided that for any individual claim
or series or related claims, this indemnity shall only apply to the legal fees, charges and disbursements of one primary outside U.S.
counsel and one primary outside Canadian counsel, and any reasonably necessary local outside counsel (if any), for all Indemnitees, unless
the representation of all Indemnitees by one counsel would be inappropriate due to the existence of an actual or potential conflict of
interest, in which case this indemnity shall also apply to the legal fees, charges and disbursements of additional outside counsel to
such conflicted Indemnitees), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrower) other
than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery
of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation,
the Indemnitee’s reliance on any Communication executed using an Electronic Signature, or in the form of an Electronic Record),
the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and their respective Related Parties only, the
administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom
or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based
on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is
a party thereto, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY
OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent
that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final
and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from
a claim brought by the Borrower against such Indemnitee for material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations (if any) hereunder
or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting or duplicating the provisions of Section 3.01(c), this Section 11.04(b) shall
not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, etc. arising
from any non-Tax claim.

 

    	 	91	 

     

    

 

(c)           Reimbursement
by the Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to pay any amount required under subsection (a) or
(b) of this Section 11.04 to be paid by it to the Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of the
Agent (and without limiting their obligation to do so), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such
Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in
respect of a claim asserted by such Lender), such payment to be made severally among them based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage
(determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought); provided, that the unreimbursed
expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Agent (or any such sub-agent) or against any Related Party of the Agent acting for the Agent (or any such sub-agent) connection with such
capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.13(d).

 

(d)           Waiver
of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Person party hereto shall assert, and each such
Person hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any other Person party hereto or to any other
Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages)
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated
hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, however,
that the foregoing shall not limit Borrower’s indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations set forth herein to the extent
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which an Indemnitee is entitled
to indemnification and expense reimbursement hereunder. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable
for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients
by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than for direct and actual damages resulting from
the gross negligence, material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations or willful misconduct by such Indemnitee as determined by
a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(e)           Payments.
All amounts due under this Section 11.04 shall be payable not later than ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor.

 

(f)           Survival.
The agreements in this Section 11.04 and the indemnity provisions of Section 11.02(e) shall survive the resignation
of the Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the
other Obligations.

 

    	 	92	 

     

    

 

Section 11.05      Payments
Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Agent
or any Lender, or the Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof
is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered
into by the Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding
under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent
of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and
effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each
Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or
repaid by the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to
the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of
the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

 

Section 11.06      Successors
and Assigns.

 

(a)           Successors
and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any
of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of
this Section 11.06, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this
Section 11.06, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection
(e) of this Section 11.06 (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section 11.06
and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Agent and each of the Lenders) any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

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

 

(i)             Minimum
Amounts.

 

(A)          In
the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing
to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds (determined after giving effect to such assignments) that equal at least
the amount specified in subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender
or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

 

(B)           In
any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section 11.06, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which
for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance
of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect
to such assignment is delivered to the Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the
Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless the Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Borrower otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

    	 	93	 

     

    

 

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

 

(iii)           Required
Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (b)(i)(B) of this Section 11.06
and, in addition:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

(v)            No
Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries,
(B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any
of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), (C) to a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or
trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person), or (D) to any Person who is not qualified to lend
to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars.

 

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

 

    	 	94	 

     

    

 

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by
the Agent pursuant to clause (c) of this Section 11.06, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment
and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment
and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of
an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall
cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits and subject to the obligations of Sections 3.01,
3.04, 3.05, and 11.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment;
provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will
constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon
request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Term Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender
of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement
as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section 11.06.

 

(c)           Register.
The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at
the Agent’s Office, a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and
a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest)
of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in
the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent 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. The Register shall
be available for inspection by each of the Borrower and the Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan Documents is pending, any
Lender may request and receive from the Agent a copy of the Register. Upon its receipt of and, if required, consent to, a duly completed
Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, such Eligible Assignee’s completed Administrative
Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 3.01 (unless such assignee is already a Lender), together with the fee
payable under Section 11.06(b)(iii), the Agent will, on the effective date thereof, record the Assignment and Assumption on
the Register.

 

(d)           Participations.
Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to any Person (other
than a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural
Person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries), in each case, that
is legally entitled to deliver the IRS form(s) and other documentation described in Section 3.01(e), as applicable (as
if it were a Lender), demonstrating a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to Laws in effect on the date on which
such Person acquires the participation (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided, that (i) such
Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent 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. For the
avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 11.04(c) without regard to the existence
of any participation.

 

    	 	95	 

     

    

 

Any
agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that
such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver
or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 11.01 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that
each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits and subject to the obligations of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05
(subject to the requirements, required representations, and limitations in such Sections) and shall be subject to the mitigation obligations
and replacement pursuant to Section 3.06 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment
pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 11.06 (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 3.01(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender
and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 11.06; provided,
that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.01, 3.06 and 11.13 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 3.01 or 3.04, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation
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, which Change in Law would have entitled the Lender from whom it acquired
the applicable participation to receive such greater payment. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request
and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.06 with respect
to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.08
as though it were a Lender; provided, that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.14 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 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 or other obligation is in
registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) (or, in each case, any amended or successor
sections) 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 Agent (in its capacity as the Agent)
shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

 

    	 	96	 

     

    

 

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

 

(f)           [Reserved].

 

(g)           The
parties hereby agree that BofA Securities, Inc. may, without notice to the Borrower, assign its rights and obligations under this
Agreement to any other registered broker-dealer wholly-owned by Bank of America Corporation to which all or substantially all of Bank
of America Corporation’s or any of its subsidiaries’ investment banking, commercial lending services or related businesses
may be transferred following the date of this Agreement.

 

Section 11.07       Treatment
of Certain Information; Confidentiality. The Agent and the Lenders each agree to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed, subject to the provisions set forth in
this Section 11.07, (a) to
its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to
the extent required or requested by any Governmental Authority, purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties
(including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to
the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to
any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any
remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document
or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject
to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 11.07,
to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee
of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any
actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made
by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on
a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with
rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (ii) the
CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the application, issuance, publishing and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or
other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with
the consent of the Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information
(x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach
of this Section 11.07, (y) becomes
available to the Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower
or (z) is independently discovered or developed by a party hereto
without utilizing any Information received from the Borrower or violating the terms of this Section 11.07.
In addition, the Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data
collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Agent and the Lenders in connection with the
administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments. For purposes of this Section 11.07,
“Information”
means all information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any of their respective
businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure
by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary after
the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential (other than Information provided under
Sections 6.04, 6.13, 6.14, 6.15, 6.18 or 7.14 (i.e., such Information provided under such sections
does not need to be labeled confidential to be treated as confidential)). Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information
as provided in this Section 11.07 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.

 

    	 	97	 

     

    

 

The
Agent and the Lenders each acknowledge that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower
or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information
and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States, Federal,
Canadian Federal, state, provincial and territorial securities laws.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, unless specifically prohibited by applicable Law or court order, the Agent and the Lenders and each of their respective
Affiliates shall each, prior to disclosure thereof, notify the Borrower of any request for disclosure of any such non-public information
by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the Agent, such
Lender or such Affiliate by such Governmental Authority) or pursuant to legal process.

 

The provisions of this Section 11.07
do not apply to any proceedings between the parties to this Agreement.

 

Section 11.08      Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each
of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after giving prior written notice to the Agent,
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional
or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any
such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter
existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or any such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Lender
shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent
or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office 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 Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.19
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 Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall
provide promptly to the 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 and their respective Affiliates under this Section are
in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Each Lender
agrees to notify the Borrower and the Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice
shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

 

    	 	98	 

     

    

 

Section 11.09       Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the
interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable
Law including, but not limited to, the Criminal Code (Canada) (the “Maximum
Rate”). If the Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in
an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid
principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Agent or a Lender
exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize
any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude
voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize,
prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations
hereunder.

 

Section 11.10      Counterparts;
Effectiveness. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, constitute the entire contract among
the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written,
relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01
or with respect to a Fee Letter or as provided in the applicable Loan Document, this Agreement or such other Loan Documents shall become
effective when they shall have been executed by the Agent (to the extent the Agent is a party thereto) and when the Agent shall have
received counterparts hereof or thereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto or thereto,
and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

 

Section 11.11      Survival
of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in
any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the
execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Agent and each
Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any
Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long
as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

 

Section 11.12      Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the
legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected
or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith
negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as
close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction
shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this
Section 11.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any
provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the
Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

 

    	 	99	 

     

    

 

Section 11.13      Replacement
of Lenders. If the Borrower is entitled to replace or remove a Lender pursuant to the provisions
of Section 3.06, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting
Lender, or if any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Borrower the right to replace or remove a Lender as a party hereto,
then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, terminate the Commitment, and repay
the Loans on a non-pro rata basis, of such Lender and/or require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance
with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.06),
all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.04) and obligations under this
Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another
Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided, that:

 

(a)           the
Borrower or assignee Lender shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.06(b)(iv) unless
such assignment fee is waived by the Agent in its sole discretion pursuant to Section 11.06(b)(iv);

 

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

 

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

 

(d)           such
assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and

 

(e)           in
the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the
applicable amendment, waiver or consent (provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the execution of the Assignment
and Assumption by the Non-Consenting Lender shall not be necessary in order for any assignment referred to in this clause to become effective).

 

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

 

Each
party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required pursuant to this Section 11.13 may be effected pursuant
to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Agent and the assignee and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment
need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to an be bound by the terms
thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and
deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender, provided, further that
any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

 

    	 	100	 

     

    

 

Notwithstanding anything in
this Section 11.13 to the contrary, the Lender that acts as the Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with
the terms of Section 9.06.

Section 11.16      Electronic
Execution; Electronic Records. This Agreement, any Loan Document and any other Communication,
including Communications required to be in writing, may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures.
The Borrower and each of the Agent, and the Lenders agrees that any Electronic Signature on or associated with any Communication shall
be valid and binding on such Person to the same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic
Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person enforceable against such Person in accordance with
the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any Communication may be executed in
as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one
and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or
acceptance of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format),
or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Agent and each
of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic
Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course
of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document.
All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes,
and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, the Agent is not under any obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed
to by such Person pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to
the extent the Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on any
such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower and/or any Lender without further verification and (b) upon
the request of the Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart. For
purposes hereof, “Electronic Record”
and “Electronic Signature”
shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006,
as it may be amended from time to time.

 

    	 	102	 

     

    

 

The
Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness
or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection
with the Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted
by telecopy, emailed .pdf or any other electronic means). The Agent 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 Communication (which writing may be a fax, any electronic
message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution
or signed using an Electronic Signature) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed
or sent or otherwise authenticated (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being
the maker thereof).

 

The
Borrower and each Lender hereby waive (i) 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, and (ii) any
claim against the Agent, each Lender and each Related Party for any liabilities arising solely from the Agent’s
and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures,
including any liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Borrower to use any available security measures in connection with
the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

 

Section 11.17      Anti-Money
Laundering Legislation. Each Lender that is subject to the AML Legislation (as hereinafter defined)
and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA
Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26,
2001)), the Criminal Code (Canada) and the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) (collectively,
the “AML Legislation”),
it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address
of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance
with the AML Legislation. The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and
other information that the Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know
your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and
regulations, including the AML Legislation.

 

    	 	103	 

     

    

 

Section 11.18      No
Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated
hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the
arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders are arm’s-length
commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders on the
other hand, (B)  the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting,
regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) 
the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated
hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each
of the Agent, each Arranger and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by
the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates,
or any other Person and (B) neither the Agent nor any Arranger nor
any Lender has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those
obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the
Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests
that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and none of the Agent, the Arrangers nor any Lender has any obligation to
disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby
waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Agent, any Arranger or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach
of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

 

Section 11.19      ENTIRE
AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT
AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR,
CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.

 

Section 11.20      Judgment
Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert
a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which
in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day
preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Agent or
any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment
Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated
in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement
Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business
Day following receipt by the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the
Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment
Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Agent or any Lender from the
Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify
the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than
the sum originally due to the Agent or any Lender in such currency, the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the
amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

Section 11.21      Acknowledgement
and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that
any liability of any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is
unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to,
and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

 

(a)           the
application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which
may be payable to it by any Lender that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

 

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

 

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

 

(ii)            a
conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution,
its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments
of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document;
or

 

(iii)           the
variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution
Authority.

 

Section 11.22       Acknowledgement
Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through
a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC
Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported
QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect
to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S.
Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC
and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact
be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

 

(a)           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.

 

    	 	105	 

     

    

 

(b)           As
used in this Section 11.22, the following terms have the following meanings:

 

“BHC Act Affiliate”
of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of
such party.

 

“Covered Entity”
means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12
C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R.
 § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §
382.2(b).

 

“Default Right”
has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as
applicable.

 

“QFC” has the
meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

 

Section 11.23       Subordination
of Intercompany Indebtedness.

 

(a)           The
Borrower and each Subordinating Loan Party covenants and agrees (on its own behalf and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries that is or
becomes a Subordinating Loan Party), in their respective capacities as issuers or holders (as applicable) of any principal, interest (including
interest which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding in bankruptcy or for the reorganization of any company), fees,
charges, expenses, attorneys’ fees and any other sum owed by the Borrower or due in respect of the aggregate unpaid amount of all
advances, indebtedness, loans, payables and other extensions of credit and obligations owed by the Borrower to any Subordinating Loan
Party (the “Intercompany Indebtedness”), that the payment of any Intercompany Indebtedness is subordinated in right
of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Section 11.23, to the payment in full of all Obligations and
the termination of the Commitments (other than contingent or inchoate indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted)
(the “Discharge of the Senior Obligations”), and that the subordination herein is for the benefit of the Agent and
the Lenders. Without limitation of the foregoing with respect to any Intercompany Indebtedness, so long as no Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, the Borrower may make and any Subordinating Loan Party may receive any (x) payments of principal and interest,
including, without limitation, prepayments of principal, (y) applicable expense or indemnity payments payable in accordance with
the terms thereof and (z) refinancings, replacements, renewals or extensions of such Intercompany Indebtedness to the extent permitted
by this Agreement and subordinate to the Obligations in accordance with this Section 11.23; provided, that in
the event that any Subordinating Loan Party receives any payment of any such Intercompany Indebtedness at a time when such payment is
prohibited by this Section 11.23, such payment shall be held by such Subordinating Loan Party, in trust for the benefit of,
and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered, upon written request, to the Agent (provided that, in the event that any other
holder of senior Indebtedness permitted under the Loan Documents has the same right to receive such payments, the Borrower shall be permitted
to make such payment or distribution to the applicable agent and to the holders of such other senior Indebtedness on a pari passu
basis, pro rata, based on outstanding principal amount, if any payment is required thereunder).

 

    	 	106	 

     

    

 

(b)           The
Borrower (for itself and on behalf of each Subordinating Loan Party) and each of the Subordinating Loan Parties (by such Subordinating
Loan Party’s acceptance of any Intercompany Indebtedness owing from the Borrower) hereby (i) authorizes the Agent to demand
specific performance of the terms of this Section 11.23 at any time when any holder of Intercompany Indebtedness shall have
failed to comply with any provisions of this Section 11.23 which are applicable to it and (ii) irrevocably waives to
the extent permitted under applicable law any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law, which might be asserted as a bar to such
remedy of specific performance.

 

(c)           The
Borrower (for itself and on behalf of each Subordinating Loan Party) and each of the Subordinating Loan Parties (by such Subordinating
Loan Party’s acceptance of any Intercompany Indebtedness owing from the Borrower) agrees that upon any distribution of assets of
the Borrower in any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings
or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise): (i) the Agent and the Lenders shall first be entitled to receive
payment in full in cash of the Obligations before any holder of such Intercompany Indebtedness is entitled to receive any payment on account
of such Intercompany Indebtedness, (ii) any payment or distribution of assets of the Borrower of any kind or character, whether in
cash, property or securities, to which any such holder of Intercompany Indebtedness would be entitled except for the provisions of this
subsection 11.23(c), shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution directly
to the Agent, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Obligations remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent
payment or distribution or provisions therefor to the Agent, for itself and the other Lenders, (iii) in the event that, notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this subsection 11.23(c), any payment or distribution of assets of the Borrower of any kind or character,
whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by any such holder of Intercompany Indebtedness on account of Intercompany
Indebtedness before the Discharge of the Senior Obligations, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for and
shall be paid over to the Agent, for application to the payment of the Obligations, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution
or provision therefor to the Agent (provided that, in the event that any other holder of senior Indebtedness permitted under the
Loan Documents has the same right to receive such payments, the Borrower shall be permitted to make such payment or distribution to the
applicable agent and to the holders of such other senior Indebtedness on a pari passu basis, pro rata, based on outstanding
principal amount, if any payment is required thereunder) and (iv) no right of the Agent to enforce the subordination provisions herein
shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Borrower or any Subordinating Loan
Party. If, for any reason, any of the trusts expressed to be created in this Section 11.23(c)(iii) should fail or be
unenforceable, the affected Subordinating Loan Party will promptly pay or distribute any such payment or distribution of assets to the
Agent, for application to the payment of the Obligations for application in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.23.

 

    	 	107	 

     

    

 

(d)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the foregoing subordination shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by
or on behalf of the Borrower is made, or any of the Agent or any of the Lenders exercises its right of setoff, in respect of the Obligations
and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any of the Agent or any of the Lenders in their discretion)
to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all
as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction.
The obligations under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Agreement.

 

(e)           Each
Subordinating Loan Party, as of the Closing Date or, if later, contemporaneously with becoming a Subordinating Loan Party (or such later
time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion), shall provide to the Agent an acknowledgment letter in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Agent whereby such Subordinating Loan Party acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 11.23.
