refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it determines would be otherwise 

  
 33 

 
disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.12 shall apply). 

(c) Minimum Amounts. Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $100,000; provided
that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time. 

(d) Limitations on Interest Periods. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to
request any Eurocurrency Borrowing (or to elect to convert to or continue as a Eurocurrency Borrowing) if the Interest Period requested therefor would end after the Maturity Date.

Borrowing;

 (v) the location and
number of the Borrower’s account (or such other account(s) as the Borrower may designate in a written Borrowing Request accompanied by information reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as to the identity and purpose of such other
account(s)) to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.04. 
 (c) Notice by the
Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be
made as part of the requested Borrowing. 

  
 34 

 (d) Failure to Elect. If no election as to the Type of a Borrowing is specified in a
request for a Borrowing, then the requested Borrowing shall be a Eurocurrency Borrowing having an Interest Period of one (1) month. If a Eurocurrency Borrowing is requested but no Interest Period is specified, the Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. 
 SECTION 2.04. Funding of Borrowings. 

(a) Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of
immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to
the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the account(s) designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing
RequestFunding Account. 
 (b) Presumption by the
Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and, in reliance upon such assumption, the Administrative Agent may (in its sole
discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable
Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding
the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. If
such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Nothing in this paragraph shall relieve any Lender of its obligation to fulfill its commitments
hereunder, and shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 2.05. Interest Elections. 

(a) Elections by the Borrower for Borrowings. Subject to Section 2.03(d), the Loans constituting each Borrowing initially shall be
of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have the Interest Period specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, subject to Section 2.05(e), the Borrower may elect to
convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect the Interest Period therefor, all as provided in this Section. The
Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders (except as provided under

  
 35 

 
Section 2.11(b)), and the Loans constituting each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. 

(b) Notice of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such
election by delivery of a signed Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent or by telephone (followed promptly, but no later than the close of business on the date of such request, by a signed Interest Election Request
in a form approved by the Administrative Agent) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of
such election. Each such telephonic and written notice of election shall be irrevocable. 
 (c) Content of Interest Election Requests.
Each telephonic and written notice of election pursuant to Section 2.05(b) shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to
different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) of this paragraph shall be specified for each resulting
Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a
Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor after giving effect to such election,
which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d); provided that there shall be no more than ten (10) separate Borrowings outstanding at any one time.

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

(e) Failure to Elect; Events of Default. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect
to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Eurocurrency Borrowing having an
Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, (i) any
Eurocurrency Borrowing shall, at the end of the applicable Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Borrowing, be automatically converted to an ABR Borrowing and (ii) the Borrower shall not be entitled to elect to convert or continue any Borrowing
into or as a Eurocurrency Borrowing. 

  
 36 

 SECTION 2.06. Termination, Reduction or Increase of the Commitments. 

(a) Scheduled Termination. Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, on the Revolver Termination Date
the Commitments shall automatically be reduced to an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans of all Lenders outstanding on the Revolver Termination Date and thereafter to an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the
Loans outstanding after giving effect to each payment of principal thereunder; provided that, for clarity, no Lender shall have any obligation to make new Loans on or after the Revolver Termination Date, and any Loans outstanding on the
Revolving Termination Date shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.07. 
 (b) Voluntary
Termination or Reduction. The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) shall be in an amount that is
$5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.08, the
total Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Commitments. 
 (c) Notice of Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction,
specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall
be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the
Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. 
 (d)
Effect of Termination or Reduction. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. 

(e) [Intentionally Omitted]. 
 (f)
Increase of the Commitments. 
 (i) Requests for Increase by Borrower. The Borrower shall have the right, at
any time prior to the Revolver Termination Date, propose that the Commitments hereunder be increased (each such proposed increase being a “Commitment Increase”) by notice to the Administrative Agent specifying each existing
Lender (each an “Increasing Lender”) and/or each additional lender (each an “Assuming Lender”) that shall have agreed to an additional Commitment and the date on which such increase is to be effective (the
“Commitment Increase Date”), which shall be a Business Day at least three (3) Business Days (or such lesser period as the Administrative Agent may reasonably 

  
 37 

 
agree) after delivery of such notice and thirty (30) days prior to the Revolver Termination Date; provided that each Lender may determine in its sole discretion whether or not it
chooses to participate in a Commitment Increase; provided, further that: 
 (A) the minimum amount of the
Commitment of any Assuming Lender, and the minimum amount of the increase of the Commitment of any Increasing Lender, as part of such Commitment Increase shall be $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $500,000 (or, in each case, in such other amounts
as agreed by the Administrative Agent), 
 (B) immediately after giving effect to such Commitment Increase, the sum of
(i) the total Commitments of all of the Lenders hereunder and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any Term Loans as of the Commitment Increase Date shall not exceed the lesser of (x) 100% of the Obligors’ Net Worth
at such time and (y) $100,000,000250,000,000; 

(C) each Assuming Lender shall be consented to by the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed); 
 (D) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on such Commitment Increase Date or shall result from the
proposed Commitment Increase; and 
 (E) the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than any representation or warranty already qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, which shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the Commitment
Increase Date as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date). 

(ii) Effectiveness of Commitment Increase by Borrower. On the Commitment Increase Date for any Commitment Increase,
each Assuming Lender part of such Commitment Increase, if any, shall become a Lender hereunder as of such Commitment Increase Date with Commitment in the amount set forth in the agreement referred to in Section 2.06(f)(ii)(y) and the Commitment
of any Increasing Lender part of such Commitment Increase shall be increased as of such Commitment Increase Date to the amount set forth in the agreement referred to in Section 2.06(f)(ii)(y); provided that: 

(x) the Administrative Agent shall have received on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Commitment Increase Date (or
on or prior to a time on an earlier date specified by the Administrative Agent) a certificate of a duly authorized officer of the Borrower stating that each of the applicable conditions to such Commitment Increase set forth in the foregoing
paragraph (i) has been satisfied; and 
 (y) each Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative
Agent, on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time on such Commitment 

  
 38 

 
Increase Date (or on or prior to a time on an earlier date specified by the Administrative Agent), an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, pursuant to which such Lender shall, effective as of such Commitment Increase Date, undertake a Commitment or an increase of Commitment, as applicable, duly executed by such Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender, as applicable,
and the Borrower and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent. 
 Promptly following satisfaction of such conditions, the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including any Assuming Lenders) thereof and of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase Date by facsimile transmission or electronic messaging system. 

(iii) Recordation into Register. Upon its receipt of an agreement referred to in clause (ii)(y) above executed by
an Assuming Lender or any Increasing Lender, together with the certificate referred to in clause (ii)(x) above, the Administrative Agent shall, if such agreement has been completed, (x) accept such agreement, (y) record the
information contained therein in the Register and (z) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower. 
 (iv) Adjustments
of Borrowings upon Effectiveness of Increase. On each Commitment Increase Date, the Borrower shall (A) prepay the outstanding Loans (if any) in full, (B) simultaneously borrow new Loans hereunder in an amount equal to such
prepayment; provided that with respect to subclauses (A) and (B), (x) the prepayment to, and Borrowing from, any existing Lender shall be effected by book entry to the extent that any portion of the amount prepaid to such Lender
will be subsequently borrowed from such Lender and (y) the existing Lenders, the Increasing Lenders and the Assuming Lenders shall make and receive payments among themselves, in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent, so that, after
giving effect thereto, the Loans are held ratably by the Lenders in accordance with the respective Commitments of such Lenders (after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) and (C) pay to the Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under
Section 2.13 as a result of any such prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise consented in writing by the Borrower, no Commitment Increase Date shall occur on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period. Immediately
prior to the effectiveness of the new Commitments on the Commitment Increase Date, the Administrative Agent shall amend Schedule 1.01(b) to reflect the aggregate amount of each Lender’s Commitments (including Increasing Lenders and Assuming
Lenders). Each reference to Schedule 1.01(b) in this Agreement shall be to Schedule 1.01(b) as amended pursuant to this Section. 

SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

(a) Repayment. Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to
the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Loans on the Maturity Date. 
 (b) Manner of
Payment. Prior to any repayment or prepayment of any Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be paid and 

  
 39 

 
shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than the time set forth in Section 2.08(f) prior to the scheduled date of such
repayment; provided that each repayment of Borrowings shall be applied to repay any outstanding ABR Borrowings before any other Borrowings. If the Borrower fails to make a timely selection of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid or
prepaid, such payment shall be applied, first, to pay any outstanding ABR Borrowings and, second, to other Borrowings in the order of the remaining duration of their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest
Period to be repaid first). Each payment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in such Borrowing (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11(b)). 

(c) Maintenance of Records by Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice records evidencing the
indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 

(d) Maintenance of Records by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records in which it shall record
(i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and each Interest Period therefor, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and
(iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(e) Effect of Entries. The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall
be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or any error therein
shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of
the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 

(f) Promissory Notes. Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall
prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its permitted registered assigns) and in a form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Thereafter, the
Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if
such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its permitted registered assigns). 
 SECTION 2.08. Prepayment of
Loans. 
 (a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time (but subject to
Section 2.08(e)) to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or fee (but subject to Section 2.13), subject to the requirements of this Section. 

  
 40 

 
Each prepayment in part under this Section 2.08(a) shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $100,000. 

(b) Mandatory Prepayments due to Borrowing Base Deficiency. In the event that the amount of total Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the
total Commitments, the Borrower shall prepay (but subject to Section 2.08(e)) Loans in such amounts as shall be necessary so that the amount of total Revolving Credit Exposure does not exceed the total Commitments. In the event that at any time
any Borrowing Base Deficiency shall exist, promptly (but in no event later than 5 Business Days), the Borrower shall (subject to Section 2.08(e)) either prepay (x) the Loans so that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured or
(y) the Loans and the Other Covered Indebtedness in such amounts as shall be necessary so that such Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured (and, as among the Loans and the Other Covered Indebtedness, at least ratably (based on the
outstanding principal amount of such indebtedness) as to payments of Loans in relation to Other Covered Indebtedness); provided, that if within such 5 Business Day period, the Borrower shall present to the Administrative Agent a reasonably
feasible plan that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent that will enable any such Borrowing Base Deficiency to be cured within 30 Business Days of the occurrence of such Borrowing Base Deficiency (which 30-Business Day period shall
include the 5 Business Days permitted for delivery of such plan) , then such prepayment or reduction shall be effected in accordance with such plan (subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to the limitations as to the allocation of such prepayments set
forth above in this Section 2.08(b)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay interest in accordance with Section 2.10(c) for so long as the Covered Debt Amount exceeds the Borrowing Base during such 30-Business Day Period.
For clarity, in the event that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is not cured prior to the end of such 5 Business Day period (or, if applicable, such 30- Business Day period), it shall constitute an Event of Default under clause (a) of
Article VIII. 
 (c) Mandatory Prepayments due to Certain Events Following Availability Period. Subject to 2.08(e) and (g)
below: 
 (i) Asset Sales. In the event that any Obligor shall receive any Net Asset Sale Proceeds at any time after
the Availability Period, the Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such Net Asset Sale Proceeds (and the Commitments shall be permanently
reduced by such amount); provided that with respect to Asset Sales of assets that are not Portfolio Investments, the Borrower shall not be required to prepay the Loans unless and until (and to the extent that) the aggregate Net Asset Sale
Proceeds relating to all such Asset Sales are greater than $2,000,000. 
 (ii) Extraordinary Receipts. In the event
(but only to the extent) that the aggregate Net Extraordinary Receipts received by the Obligors at any time after the Availability Period exceed $2,000,000, the Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such
excess Net Extraordinary Receipts, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such excess Net Extraordinary Receipts (and the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount). 

  
 41 

 (iii) Return of Capital. In the event that any Obligor shall receive any
Net Return of Capital at any time after the Availability Period, the Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Net Return of Capital, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Return of Capital
(and the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount). 
 (iv) Equity Issuances. In the event that the
Borrower shall receive any Cash proceeds from the issuance of Equity Interests of the Borrower (other than up to $2,000,000 of proceeds from issuance(s) of Equity Interests to managers, partners, members, directors, officers, employees or
consultants of the Investment Advisor and pursuant to any distribution reinvestment plan of the Borrower) at any time after the Availability Period, the Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Cash
proceeds, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of such Cash proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions or other similar payments and other costs, fees, premiums and expenses directly associated therewith,
including reasonable legal fees and expenses (and the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount). 
 (v)
Indebtedness. In the event that any Obligor shall receive any Cash proceeds from the issuance by such Obligor of Indebtedness (excluding Hedging Agreements permitted by Section 6.01 and other Indebtedness permitted by
Section 6.01(f), (g), (h) and (i)) at any time after the Availability Period, such Obligor shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Cash proceeds, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such Cash proceeds,
net of underwriting discounts and commissions or other similar payments and other costs, fees, commissions, premiums and expenses directly associated therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses (and the Commitments
shall be permanently reduced by such amount). 
 (d) Mandatory Prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans. If the Loans to be prepaid pursuant
to Sections 2.08(c)(i), (ii) and (iii) are Eurocurrency Loans, the Borrower may defer such prepayment (and permanent Commitment reduction) until the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loans, so long as the Borrower
deposits an amount equal to an amount required to be prepaid, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such amount, into a segregated collateral account in the name and under the control (within the meaning of
Section 9-104 of the Uniform Commercial Code) of the Administrative Agent pending application of such amount to the prepayment of the Loans (and permanent reduction of the Commitments) on the last day of such Interest Period. 

(e) Mandatory Prepayments after the Occurrence and During the Continuance of Events of Default. At any time when any Term Loan Credit
Facility is in existence, unless otherwise expressly provided in Section 8 of the Guaranty and Security Agreement, then upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or an event of default under the Term Loan Credit
Facility, each mandatory and optional prepayment by the Borrower of the Loans shall, to the extent required by the Term Loan Credit Facility, be made and applied ratably (based on the outstanding principal amounts of such indebtedness) to the Loans
and the Term 

  
 42 

 
Loans, except to the extent the Term Loan Credit Facility permits a greater proportion of such prepayment to be applied to the Loans. 

(f) Notices, Etc. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing or by telephone (followed promptly by written
confirmation) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing under Section 2.08(a), not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment
or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing under Section 2.08(a), or any prepayment under Section 2.08(b) or (c), not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such
notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such
prepayment; provided, that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.06, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of
termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.06 and any such notices given in connection with any of the events specified in Section 2.08(c) may be conditioned upon (x) the consummation of the Asset Sale or the issuance of
Equity Interests or Indebtedness (as applicable) or (y) the receipt of net cash proceeds from Net Extraordinary Receipts or Net Return of Capital. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent
shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by
Section 2.10 and shall be made in the manner specified in Section 2.07(b). 
 (g) RIC Tax Distributions. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Net Asset Sale Proceeds, Net Extraordinary Receipts and Net Return of Capital required to be applied to the prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.08(c) shall exclude the amounts estimated in good faith by the Borrower to
be necessary for the Borrower to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements imposed by Section 852(a) of the Code (or any successor thereto) to maintain its eligibility to be taxed as a RIC for any such taxable year. 

SECTION 2.09. Fees. 

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall
accrue at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender, if any, on each day during the period from and including the Effective Date to the earlier of the date the Commitments terminate and the Revolver
Termination Date. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable (x) within one Business Day after each Quarterly Date and (y) on the earlier of the date the Commitments terminate and the Revolver Termination Date, commencing on the first such
date to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of
computing commitment fees, the Commitments shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Loans of all Lenders. 

  
 43 

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

(c) Payment of Fees and Expenses. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and immediately available
funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of commitment fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances absent manifest error. Any fees representing the Borrower’s
reimbursement obligations of expenses, to the extent requirements of invoice not otherwise specified in this Agreement, shall be due (subject to the other terms and conditions contained herein) within ten Business Days of the date that the Borrower
receives from the Administrative Agent a reasonably detailed invoice for such reimbursement obligations. 
 SECTION 2.10.
Interest. 
 (a) ABR Loans. The Loans constituting each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the
Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (b) Eurocurrency Loans. The Loans constituting each Eurocurrency Borrowing
shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the related Interest Period for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin. 

(c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Event of Default described in clause (a), (b), (d) (only with respect
to Section 6.07), (h), (i), (j) or (p) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, or on demand of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders if any Event of Default described in any other clause of Article VII has
occurred and is continuing, or if the Covered Debt Amount exceeds the Borrowing Base during the 30-Business Day period referred to in Section 2.08(b), the interest applicable to Loans shall accrue, and any fee or other amount not paid when due
by the Borrower hereunder shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided above, or (ii) in
the case of any fee or other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. 

(d) Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan in
Dollars and upon termination in full of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan
(other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the Maturity Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any
Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(e) Computation. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by
reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a 

  
 44 

 
year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable
Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

SECTION 2.11. Eurocurrency Borrowing Provisions. 

(a) Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of the Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing: 

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and
reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or 
 (ii) the Administrative
Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Loans included in such Borrowing for
such Interest Period; 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders in writing or by telephone
(promptly confirmed in writing) or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest
Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or the continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing and such Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or converted to, an ABR Borrowing and (ii) if
any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing. Any such notice shall set forth the basis for any such determination by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable. 

(b) Illegality. Without duplication of any other rights that any Lender has hereunder, if any Lender determines that any law has made
it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO
Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Borrowings or to convert ABR Borrowings to Eurocurrency Borrowings shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender
making or maintaining Eurocurrency Borrowings the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, the interest rate on which ABR Borrowings of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such
illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to
such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) all Eurocurrency Borrowings of such Lender shall automatically convert to ABR Borrowings (the interest rate on which ABR 

  
 45 

 
Borrowings of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate), either
on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Borrowings and
(y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such
Lender without reference to the LIBO Rate component thereof until the Administrative is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBO Rate. Upon any such
conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted. 
 SECTION 2.12. 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 account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or 

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than (x) Covered
Taxes and Other Taxes, (y) Taxes described in clauses (c) or (d) of the Definition of Excluded Taxes and (z) Connection Income Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or participation therein;

 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining
its obligation to make any such Eurocurrency Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) with respect to such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans, then the
Borrower will pay to such Lender, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have
the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement 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 or liquidity position),
by an amount deemed to be material by such Lender, then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction
suffered. 

  
 46 

 (c) Certificates from Lenders. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or
amounts, in Dollars, necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 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 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Delay in
Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Obligor shall be required to
compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower in writing of any such Change in Law
giving rise to such increased costs or reductions. 
 SECTION 2.13. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment
of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period
therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under
Section 2.08(f) and is revoked in accordance herewith), or (d) the assignment as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17(b) of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period
therefor, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to
include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of 
 (i) the amount of interest that such
Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan referred to in clauses (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 2.13 denominated in Dollars for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or
assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or
continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for Dollars for such Interest Period, over 

(ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest
such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an affiliate of such Lender) for deposits denominated in Dollars from other banks in the Eurocurrency market at the commencement of such period. 

Payments under this Section shall be made upon written request of a Lender delivered to the Borrower not later than 30 Business Days
following a payment, conversion, or failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay that gives rise to a claim under this Section, accompanied by a written certificate of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts that such
Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section, which certificate shall 

  
 47 

 
be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

SECTION 2.14. Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Covered Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Covered Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) the Administrative Agent or Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had
no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and
each Lender for and, within 10 Business Days after written demand therefor, pay the full amount of any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes (including Covered Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this
Section 2.14(c)) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Covered Taxes were correctly or legally
imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Covered Taxes or Other
Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrower fails to pay any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the
Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative
Agent or such Lender as a result of such failure. 
 (e) Lenders. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a
reduced rate. 

  
 48 

 In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver
such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirements. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is resident for U.S.
federal income tax purposes in the United States, (A) any Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on
which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or such other documentation or
information prescribed by applicable laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup
withholding or information reporting requirement; and (B) each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which
such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but, in any event, only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so),
whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (i) duly completed executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or
any successor form claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, 
 (ii)
duly completed executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or any successor form certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States,

 (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under
Section 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate, signed under penalties of perjury, to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a
“10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) duly completed
executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) certifying that the Foreign Lender is not a United States Person, or 

(iv) any other form including Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, as prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming
exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to
be made. 

  
 49 

 In addition, each Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the expiration or invalidity of
any form previously delivered by such Lender; provided it is legally able to do so at the time. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time that it becomes aware that it no longer satisfies the
legal requirements to provide any previously delivered form or certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. or other taxing authorities for such purpose). 

(f) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were
to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower 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 Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at the time or times
prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such
Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from any such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.14(f), “FATCA” shall include any amendment made to
FATCA after the Effective Date. 
 (g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its
sole discretion, that it has received a refund or credit of any Covered Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Obligor or with respect to which any Obligor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14, it
shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund or credit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by any Obligor with respect to the Covered Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit),
net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit);
provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority)
to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or any Lender is required to repay such refund or credit to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will
the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net position after-Taxes than the
Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any
Lender to make available its tax returns or its books or records (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 

  
 50 

 SECTION 2.15. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment: Sharing of Set-offs. 

(a) Payments by the Borrower. The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest,
fees, or under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available
funds, without set-off, deduction or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating
interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document and except payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13,
2.14 and 9.03, which shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.
If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period
of such extension. 
 All amounts owing under this Agreement (including commitment fees, payments required under Sections 2.12 and 2.13
or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein) are payable in Dollars. 
 (b) Application of
Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay
interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties
entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties. 
 (c) Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the
extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each Borrowing shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of commitment fee under Section 2.09 shall be made for account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the
Commitments under Section 2.06, Section 2.08 or otherwise shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (ii) each Borrowing shall be allocated pro
rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans that are to be included in such Borrowing (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans);
(iii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by them; and (iv) each payment of
interest on Loans by the Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders. 

(d) Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain
payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans, resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion 

  
 51 

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

(e) Presumptions of Payment. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which
any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and
may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the
amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. 

(f) Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to
Section 2.04(a) or (b) or 2.15(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for account of such Lender to
satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 SECTION 2.16.
Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a) commitment fees pursuant to Section 2.09(a) shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender
to the extent and during the period such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such commitment fee that otherwise would have accrued and been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender to the
extent and during the period such Lender is a Defaulting Lender); 

  
 52 

 (b) the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included
in determining whether all Lenders, two-thirds of the Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.02,
except for any amendment or waiver described in Section 9.02(b)(i), (ii) or (iii)); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders, two-thirds of the Lenders or each affected Lender which
affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other Lenders or affected Lender, as applicable, shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

In the event that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that
caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then, on the date of such agreement, such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for the Lenders to hold
the Loans in accordance with their Applicable Percentage. 
 SECTION 2.17. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender exercises its rights under Section 2.11(b) or requests compensation
under Section 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (subject to
overall policy considerations of such Lender) 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 sole
judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.14, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the circumstance giving rise to such Lender exercising
its rights under Section 2.11(b) and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any cost or expense not required to be reimbursed by the Borrower 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 exercises its rights under Section 2.11(b) or requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for account of any
Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent,
require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such
obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld or delayed, (ii) 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, from the assignee (to the
extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or
payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, 

  
 53 

 
such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by
such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 (c)
Defaulting Lenders. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04 or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof,
(i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied
obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections, in the case of each of clauses (i) and
(ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion. 
 ARTICLE III 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that: 

SECTION 3.01. Organization; Powers. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, is duly organized or incorporated,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so, individually or in
the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where the failure to do so could reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 3.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions are within the Borrower’s corporate powers
and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and, if required, by all necessary stockholder action. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and each of the other Loan Documents to which it is
a party when executed and delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or similar laws of general applicability affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and (b) the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity
or at law). 
 SECTION 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not require any consent or
approval of registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except for (i) such as have been or will be obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (ii) filings and recordings in respect of the
Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents, (b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation or the charter, 

  
 54 

 
by-laws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any order of any Governmental Authority (including the Investment Company Act and the rules, regulations
and orders issued by the SEC thereunder), (c) will not violate or result in a default in any material respect under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or assets, or give rise to a
right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any such Person, and (d) except for the Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents, will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries. 
 SECTION 3.04. Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Effect. 

(a) Financial Statements. The financial statements delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 4.01(c)(i) and (ii) and 5.01 (a) and (b) present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the
end of and for the applicable period in accordance with GAAP, subject, in the case of unaudited financial statements, to year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes. 

(b) No Material Adverse Effect. Since December 31, 2012 there has not been any event, development or circumstance that has
had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 3.05. Litigation. There are no actions, suits,
investigations or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority now pending against or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (a) as to which there is a
reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (b) that involve this Agreement or the
Transactions. 
 SECTION 3.06. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in compliance
with all laws, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property and all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any contract or other arrangement, the performance of which by the Borrower could reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 3.07. Taxes. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has timely
filed or has caused to be timely filed all material U.S. federal, state and local Tax returns that are required to be filed by it and all other material Tax returns that are required to be filed by it and has paid all Taxes for which it is directly
or indirectly liable and any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other Taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority, other than any Taxes, fees or other charges the amount or
validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be. The charges,
accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries in respect of Taxes and other governmental 

  
 55 

 
charges are adequate. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has given or been requested to give a waiver of the statute of limitations relating to the payment of any federal, state,
local and foreign Taxes or other impositions, and no Tax lien (other than Liens permitted pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of Permitted Liens) has been filed with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. There is no proposed
Tax assessment against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and there is no basis for such assessment. 
 SECTION 3.08.
ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. 
 SECTION 3.09. Disclosure. 

(a) All written reports, financial statements, certificates and other written information (other than projected financial information, other
forward-looking information, information relating to third parties, and information of a general economic or general industry nature) which has been made available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or delivered under any Loan Document, taken as a whole, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements contained therein at the time made and taken as a whole (and after giving effect to all written updates provided by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the Lenders from time to time) not misleading in light of the

(a) Books and Records; Inspection Rights. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep books of record and
account in accordance with GAAP. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, upon reasonable prior notice to the Borrower, to (i) visit and
inspect its properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and records, and (ii) discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably
requested; provided that the Borrower or such Subsidiary shall be entitled to have its representatives and advisors present during any inspection of its books and records or meeting with its independent accountants; provided,
further, that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not conduct more than two (2) such visits and inspections in any calendar year unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of any subsequent visits
and inspections during such calendar year. 
 (b) Audit Rights. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit
any representatives designated by Administrative Agent (including any consultants, accountants, lawyers and appraisers retained by the Administrative Agent) to conduct evaluations and appraisals of the Borrower’s computation of the
Borrowing Base and the assets included in the Borrowing Base (including, for clarity, audits of any Agency Accounts, funds transfers and custody procedures), all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested. The Borrower shall pay
the reasonable, documented fees and expenses of representatives retained by the Administrative Agent to conduct any such evaluation or appraisal; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses for more than one
such evaluation or appraisal during any calendar year unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of any subsequent evaluation or appraisal during such calendar year; provided, further, that in relation to any
fees or expenses required to be paid by the Borrower in connection with any appraisal under this Section 5.06(b) (but, for the avoidance of doubt, other than valuation reports produced pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B)(x)), unless an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing such fees and expenses shall be subject to the IVP Supplemental Cap. The Borrower also agrees to modify or adjust the computation of the Borrowing Base and/or the assets included in the Borrowing Base,
to the extent required by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders as a result of any such evaluation or appraisal indicating that such computation or inclusion of assets is not consistent with the terms of this Agreement; provided
that if the Borrower demonstrates that such evaluation or appraisal is incorrect, the Borrower shall be permitted to re-adjust its computation of the Borrowing Base. 

SECTION 5.07. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all
laws, rules, regulations, including the Investment Company Act (if applicable to such Person), and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it (including orders issued by the SEC) or its property and all indentures, agreements and other
instruments, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 68 

 SECTION 5.08. Certain Obligations Respecting Subsidiaries; Further Assurances. 

(a) Subsidiary Guarantors. 

(i) In the event that (1) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall form or acquire any new Subsidiary (other than a
Financing Subsidiary), or that any other Person shall become a “Subsidiary” within the meaning of the definition thereof (other than a Financing Subsidiary); (2) any Structured Subsidiary shall no longer constitute a “Structured
Subsidiary” pursuant to the definition thereof (in which case such Person shall be deemed to be a “new” Subsidiary for purposes of this Section 5.08); or (3) any SBIC Subsidiary shall no longer constitute a “SBIC
Subsidiary” pursuant to the definition thereof (in which case such Person shall be deemed to be a “new” Subsidiary for purposes of this Section 5.08), the Borrower will, in each case, on or before thirty (30) days following
such Person becoming a Subsidiary or such Financing Subsidiary no longer qualifying as such, cause such new Subsidiary or former Financing Subsidiary to become a “Subsidiary Guarantor” (and, thereby, an “Obligor”) under the
Guarantee and Security Agreement pursuant to a Guarantee Assumption Agreement and to deliver such proof of corporate or other action, incumbency of officers, opinions of counsel and other documents as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably
requested. 
 (ii) The Borrower acknowledges that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have agreed to exclude each
Structured Subsidiary as an Obligor only for so long as such Person qualifies as a “Structured Subsidiary” pursuant to the definition thereof, and thereafter such Person shall no longer constitute a “Structured Subsidiary” for
any purpose of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 
 (iii) The Borrower acknowledges that the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders have agreed to exclude each SBIC Subsidiary as an Obligor only for so long as such Person qualifies as an “SBIC Subsidiary” pursuant to the definition thereof, and thereafter such Person shall no longer constitute an
“SBIC Subsidiary” for any purpose of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 
 (b) Ownership of Subsidiaries. The
Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take such action from time to time as shall be necessary to ensure that each of its Subsidiaries is a wholly owned Subsidiary; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any
transaction permitted under Sections 6.03 or 6.04, so long as after giving effect to such permitted transaction each of the remaining Subsidiaries is a wholly owned Subsidiary. 

(c) Further Assurances. The Borrower will, and will cause each of the Subsidiary Guarantors to, take such action from time to time as
shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent to effectuate the purposes and objectives of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower will, and will cause each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, to: 

(i) take such action from time to time (including filing appropriate Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and executing
and delivering such 

  
 69 

 
assignments, security agreements and other instruments) as shall be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to create, in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Lenders (and any Affiliate thereof that is a party to any Hedging Agreement entered into with the Borrower), the holders of any Term Loan Indebtedness and the holders of any Secured Longer-Term Indebtedness, pursuant to the Security Documents,
perfected security interests and Liens in the Collateral; provided that any such security interest or Lien shall be subject to the relevant requirements of the Security Documents; 

(ii) with respect to each deposit account or securities account of the Obligors (other than (A) any such accounts that are
maintained by the Borrower in its capacity as “servicer” for a Financing Subsidiary or any Agency Account, (B) any such accounts which hold solely money or financial assets of a Financing Subsidiary, (C) any payroll account so
long as such payroll account is coded as such, (D) withholding tax and fiduciary accounts or any trust account maintained solely on behalf of a Portfolio Investment, and (E) any account in which the aggregate value of deposits therein,
together with all other such accounts under this clause (E), does not at any time exceed $75,000; provided that in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (A) through (E), no other Person (other than the depository institution at which
such account is maintained) shall have “control” over such account (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code)), cause each bank or securities intermediary (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code) to enter into such
arrangements with the Collateral Agent as shall be appropriate in order that the Collateral Agent has “control” (within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code) over each such deposit account or securities account (each, a
“Control Account”) and in that connection, the Borrower agrees, subject to Sections 5.08(c)(iv) and (v) below, to cause all cash and other proceeds of Portfolio Investments received by any Obligor to be immediately
deposited into a Control Account (or otherwise delivered to, or registered in the name of, the Collateral Agent) and, both prior to and following such deposit, delivery or registration such cash and other proceeds shall be held in trust by the
Borrower for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of such Obligor or any other Person (including with any money or financial assets of the Borrower in its capacity as “servicer”
for a Structured Subsidiary, or any money or financial assets of a Structured Subsidiary, or any money or financial assets of the Borrower in its capacity as an agent or administrative agent for any other Bank Loans (as defined in Section 5.13)
subject to Section 5.08(c)(v) below); 
 (iii) cause the Financing Subsidiaries to execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent such certificates and agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as it shall determine are necessary to confirm that such Financing Subsidiary qualifies or continues to qualify as a
“Structured Subsidiary” or an “SBIC Subsidiary”, as applicable, pursuant to the definitions thereof; 

(iv) in the case of any Portfolio Investment consisting of a Bank Loan that does not constitute all of the credit extended to
the underlying borrower under the relevant underlying loan documents and a Financing Subsidiary holds any interest in the loans or other extensions of credit under such loan documents, (x)(1) cause the interest owned by such Financing Subsidiary to
be evidenced by a separate note or notes, which 

  
 70 

 
note or notes are either (A) in the name of such Financing Subsidiary or (B) in the name of the Borrower, endorsed in blank and delivered to the applicable Financing Subsidiary and
beneficially owned by the Financing Subsidiary (or, in the case of a Noteless Assigned Loan (as defined in Section 5.13), cause the interest owned by such Financing Subsidiary to be evidenced by separate assignment documentation contemplated by
paragraph 1(b) of Schedule 1.01(d) in the name of such Financing Subsidiary) and (2) not permit such Financing Subsidiary to have a participation acquired from an Obligor in such underlying loan documents and the extensions of credit thereunder
or any other indirect interest therein acquired from an Obligor; and (y) ensure that, subject to Section 5.08(c)(v) below, all amounts owing to any Obligor by the underlying borrower or other obligated party are remitted by such
borrower or obligated party (or the applicable administrative agents, collateral agents or equivalent Person) directly to the Custodian Account and no other amounts owing by such underlying borrower or obligated party are remitted to the Custodian
Account; 
 (v) in the event that any Obligor is acting as an agent or administrative agent under any loan documents with
respect to any Bank Loan (or is acting in an analogous agency capacity under any note purchase agreements with respect to any Mezzanine Investment) and such Obligor does not hold all of the credit extended to the underlying borrower or issuer under
the relevant underlying loan documents or note purchase agreements, ensure that (1) all funds held by such Obligor in such capacity as agent or administrative agent is segregated from all other funds of such Obligor and clearly identified as
being held in an agency capacity (an “Agency Account”); (2) all amounts owing on account of such Bank Loan or Mezzanine Investment by the underlying borrower or other obligated party are remitted by such borrower or obligated
party to either (A) such Agency Account or (B) directly to an account in the name of the underlying lender to whom such amounts are owed (for the avoidance of doubt, no funds representing amounts owing to more than one underlying lender
may be remitted to any commingled account other than the Agency Account); and within one (1) Business Day after receipt of such funds, such Obligor acting in its capacity as agent or administrative agent shall distribute any such funds
belonging to any Obligor to the Custodian Account (provided that if any distribution referred to in this clause (c) is not permitted by applicable bankruptcy law to be made as a result of the bankruptcy of the underlying borrower, such
Obligor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain permission to make such distribution and shall make such distribution as soon as legally permitted to do so); 

(vi) cause the documentation relating to each Investment in Indebtedness described in paragraph 1 of
Schedule 1.01(d) to be delivered to the Custodian as provided therein; and 
 (vii) in the case of any Portfolio
Investment held by any Financing Subsidiary, including any cash collection related thereto, ensure that such Portfolio Investment shall not be held in any Custodian Account, or any other account of any Obligor. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any instrument, promissory note, 

  
 71 

 agreement, document or certificate held by the Custodian is destroyed or lost not as a result of any action of
the Borrower, then: 
 (i in the case of any Investment in Indebtedness other than a Noteless Assigned Loan, if such
destroyed or lost document is an original promissory note registered in name of an Obligor, such original promissory note shall constitute an “Undelivered Note” and the Borrower shall have up to 20 Business Days from the date when the
Borrower has knowledge of such loss or destruction to deliver to the Custodian a replacement promissory note and comply with the requirements of Section (1)(c)(x) of Schedule 1.01(d); provided, that during such 20 Business Day period the
limitations under Section (1)(a)(i) and (ii) of Schedule 1.01(d) shall apply; and 
 (ii in the case of any
Noteless Assigned Loans, if such destroyed instrument or document is an original transfer document or instrument relating to such Noteless Assigned Loan, the Borrower shall have up to 20 Business Days from the date when the Borrower has knowledge of
such loss or destruction to deliver to the Custodian a replacement instrument or document and comply with the requirements of Section (1)(c)(x) of Schedule 1.01(d). 

SECTION 5.09. Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans solely (i) to prepay on the Effective Date
outstanding amounts under the Existing Prime Brokerage Facility in accordance with the BCI Payoff Letter and (ii) for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than the Financing Subsidiaries, except to the extent
permitted by Section 6.03(f)) in the ordinary course of business, including making distributions not prohibited by this Agreement and the acquisition and funding (either directly or through one or more wholly-owned Subsidiary
Guarantors) of leveraged loans, mezzanine loans, high-yield securities, convertible securities, preferred stock, common stock and other Portfolio Investments; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any
responsibility as to the use of any of such proceeds. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used in violation of applicable law or, directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying any
Margin Stock. On the first day (if any) an Obligor acquires any Margin Stock or at any other time requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the
foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1, as applicable, referred to in Regulation U. Margin Stock shall be purchased by the Obligors only with the proceeds of Indebtedness not directly or indirectly secured
by Margin Stock (within the meaning of Regulation U), or with the proceeds of equity capital of the Borrower. 
 SECTION 5.10.
Status of RIC and BDC. The Borrower shall at all times maintain its status as a RIC under the Code and as a “business development company” under the Investment Company Act. 

SECTION 5.11. Investment Policies. The Borrower shall at all times be in compliance in all material respects with its Investment
Policies. 

  
 72 

 SECTION 5.12. Portfolio Valuation and Diversification Etc.  

(a) Industry Classification Groups. For purposes of this Agreement, the Borrower shall assign each Eligible Portfolio Investment to an
Industry Classification Group as reasonably determined by the Borrower. To the extent that the Borrower reasonably determines that any Eligible Portfolio Investment is not adequately correlated with the risks of other Eligible Portfolio Investments
in an Industry Classification Group, such Eligible Portfolio Investment may be assigned by the Borrower to an Industry Classification Group that is more closely correlated to such Eligible Portfolio Investment. 

(b) Portfolio Valuation Etc. 

(i) Settlement Date Basis. For purposes of this Agreement, all determinations of whether a Portfolio Investment is an
Eligible Portfolio Investment shall be determined on a settlement-date basis (meaning that any Portfolio Investment that has been purchased will not be treated as an Eligible Portfolio Investment until such purchase has settled, and any Eligible
Portfolio Investment which has been sold will not be excluded as an Eligible Portfolio Investment until such sale has settled); provided that no such investment shall be included as an Eligible Portfolio Investment to the extent it has not
been paid for in full. 
 (ii) Determination of Values. For purposes of the Loan Documents, the Eligible Portfolio
Investments shall be valued as follows: 
 (A) Quoted Investments External Review. With respect to Eligible Portfolio
Investments (including Cash Equivalents) for which market quotations are readily available (“Quoted Investments”), the Borrower shall, not less frequently than once each calendar week, determine the market value of such Quoted
Investments which shall, in each case, be determined in accordance with one of the following methodologies as selected by the Borrower (each such value, an “External Quoted Value”): 

(w) in the case of public and 144A securities, the average of the bid prices as determined by two Approved Dealers selected by
the Borrower, 
 (x) in the case of Bank Loans, the average of the bid prices as determined by two Approved Dealers selected
by the Borrower or an Approved Pricing Service which makes reference to at least two Approved Dealers with respect to such Bank Loans, 

(y) in the case of any Quoted Investment traded on an exchange, the closing price for such Eligible Portfolio Investment most
recently posted on such exchange, and 
 (z) in the case of any other Quoted Investment, the fair market value thereof as
determined by an Approved Pricing Service; and 

  
 73 

 (B) Unquoted Investments External Review. With respect to Eligible
Portfolio Investments for which market quotations are not readily available (“Unquoted Investments”): 

(x) Commencing on February 28, 2014, and for each
May 31st, August 31st, November 30th and February 28th thereafter (or such other dates as are reasonably agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (provided that such testing dates shall occur not less than quarterly), each a
“Valuation Testing Date”), the Administrative Agent through an Independent Valuation Provider will test the values as of such Valuation Testing Date of those Unquoted Investments that are Portfolio Investments included in the
Borrowing Base selected by the Administrative Agent (such selected assets, the “IVP Tested Assets” and such value, the “IVP External Unquoted Value”); provided that the fair value of such Portfolio
Investments tested by the Independent Valuation Provider as of any Valuation Testing Date shall be approximately 25% (but in no event shall exceed 30%) of the aggregate value of the Unquoted Investments in the Borrowing Base (the determination of
fair value for such 25% threshold shall be based off of the last determination of value of the Portfolio Investments pursuant to this Section 5.12 and, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of any Unquoted Investments acquired during the
calendar quarter, the value shall be as determined pursuant to clause (E)(z)(2) below); provided, further that the Administrative Agent shall provide written notice to the Borrower, setting forth a description of which Unquoted Investments
shall be IVP Tested Assets as of such Valuation Testing Date, not later than February 15, 2014 and on each May 15th, August 15th,
November 15th and February 15th thereafter (or such other dates as are reasonably agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent), as applicable. Each such valuation report shall also include the information required to comply with clause (iii) of paragraph 6 and paragraph 21 of Schedule 1.01(d) for an IVP Tested Asset (to the extent such provisions are
applicable.) 
 (y) With respect to all Unquoted Investments that are not IVP Tested Assets as of such Valuation Testing
Date (the “Borrower Tested Assets”), the Borrower shall request an Approved Third-Party Appraiser to assist the Board of Directors of the Borrower in determining the fair market value of the remaining Unquoted Investments, as of
each Valuation Testing Date (such value, the “Borrower External Unquoted Value”), and to provide the Board of Directors with a written valuation report as part of that assistance each quarter. Each such valuation report shall also
include the information required to comply with clause (iii) of paragraph 6 and paragraph 21 of Schedule 1.01(d). 

(C) Internal Review. The Borrower shall conduct internal reviews to determine the value of all Eligible Portfolio
Investments at least once each calendar week which shall take into account any events of which the 

  
 74 

 
Borrower has knowledge that adversely affect the value of any Eligible Portfolio Investment (each such value, an “Internal Value”). 

(D) Value of Quoted Investments. Subject to clauses (G) of this Section 5.12(b)(ii) and
Section 5.12(b)(iii), the “Value” of each Quoted Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall be the lowest of (i) the Internal Value of such Quoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C), (ii) the External Quoted Value of such Quoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(A), and (iii) the par or face value of such Quoted Investment. 

(E) Value of Unquoted Investments. Subject to clauses (G) of this Section 5.12(b)(ii) and
Section 5.12(b)(iii), 
 (x) if the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the
Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) falls below the range of the External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B), then the “Value” of such Unquoted
Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the Internal Value and (ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment; 

(y) (i) if the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) falls above the range of the Borrower External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B), then the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment for all
purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the midpoint of the range of the Borrower External Unquoted Value and (ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment; 

(ii) if the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) falls more than 5% above the midpoint of the range of the IVP External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B), then the “Value” of such
Unquoted Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the midpoint of the range of the IVP External Unquoted Value and (ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment; and 

(z) if the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) is within the range of the Borrower External Unquoted Value, or within or not more than 5% above the midpoint of the 

  
 75 

 
range of the IVP External Unquoted Value, of such Unquoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B), then the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment
for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the Internal Value and (ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment; 

except that: 

(1) if the difference between the highest and lowest Borrower External Unquoted Value in such range exceeds an amount equal
to 6% of the midpoint of such range, the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment shall instead be deemed to be the lowest of (i) the lowest Borrower External Unquoted Value in such range, (ii) the Internal Value determined pursuant
to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C), and (iii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment; and 
 (2) if an Unquoted
Investment is acquired during a fiscal quarter, the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment shall be deemed to be equal to the lowest of (x) the Internal Value of such Unquoted Investment as determined by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C), (y) the cost of such Unquoted Investment until such time as the External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment is determined in accordance with Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B) as at the Valuation Testing Date,
and (z) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment. 
 (F) Actions Upon a Borrowing Base Deficiency. If,
based upon such weekly internal review, the Borrower determines that a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists or that the Borrowing Base has declined by more than 15%, then the Borrower shall, promptly and in any event within three Business Days as
provided in Section 5.01(e), deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting the new amount of the Borrowing Base and shall take the actions, and make the payments and prepayments (if any), all as more specifically set forth in
Section 2.08(b). 
 (G) Failure to Determine Values. If the Borrower shall fail to determine the value of any
Eligible Portfolio Investment as at any date pursuant to the requirements (but subject to the exclusions) of the foregoing sub-clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) or (E), then the “Value” of such Eligible Portfolio Investment as at such date
shall be deemed to be zero. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to determine the value of any Eligible Portfolio Investment as at any date pursuant to clause (B)(x), then the “Value” of such Eligible Portfolio Investment as at such date
(subject to clause (H) below) shall be the lower of (x) the Internal Value and (y) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment. 

(H) Prior to December 31, 2013, the value of any such Unquoted Investment that was acquired prior to the Effective Date
shall be based 

  
 76 

 
on the Borrower’s internal valuations as set forth in the Borrowing Base Certificate; 

(iii) Supplemental Testing of Values; Valuation Dispute Resolutions  

(A) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, individually or at the request of the Required Lenders, shall at
any time have the right to request any Portfolio Investment (other than IVP Tested Assets as of the most recent Valuation Testing Date) included in the Borrowing Base with a value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) to be
independently tested by an Independent Valuation Provider. Subject to Section 5.12(b)(iv)(C) below, there shall be no limit on the number of such appraisals requested by the Administrative Agent and the costs of any such valuation shall be at
the expense of the Borrower. If (x) the value of any Borrower Tested Asset determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is less than the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to this clause, then the value
determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall continue to be used as the “Value” for purposes of this Agreement and (y) if the value of any Borrower Tested Asset determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is
greater than the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider and the difference between such values is (1) less than or equal to 5% of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the value determined pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall become the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment, (2) greater than 5% and less than or equal to 20% of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the “Value” of such
Portfolio Investment shall become the average of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) and the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider, and (3) greater than 20% of the value determined pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall retain an additional third-party appraiser and, upon the completion of such appraisal, the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment shall become the average of the
three valuations (with the average of the value of the Independent Valuation Provider and value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) to be used until the third value is obtained). 

(B) For purposes of this Section 5.12(b)(iii), the Value of any Portfolio Investment for which the Independent Valuation
Provider’s value is used shall be the midpoint of the range (if any) determined by the Independent Valuation Provider. 

(iv) Generally Applicable Valuation Provisions 

(A) The Independent Valuation Provider shall apply a recognized valuation methodology that is commonly accepted in the
Borrower’s industry for valuing Portfolio Investments of the type being valued and held by the Obligors. Other procedures relating to the valuation will be reasonably agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. 

  
 77 

 (B) All valuations shall be on a settlement date basis. For the avoidance of
doubt, the value of any Portfolio Investments determined in accordance with any provision of this Section 5.12 shall be the Value of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this Agreement until a new Value for such Portfolio Investment is
subsequently determined in good faith in accordance with this Section 5.12. 
 (C) Subject to the last sentence of
Section 9.03(a), the documented out-of-pocket costs of any valuation reasonably incurred by the Administrative Agent under this Section 5.12 shall be at the expense of the Borrower; provided that the Administrative Agent shall under
no circumstances be required to incur expenses under Section 5.12(b)(iii) in excess of the IVP Supplemental Cap. 

(D) In addition, the values determined by the Independent Valuation Provider shall be deemed to be “Information”
hereunder and subject to Section 9.13 hereof. 
 (E) The Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of the final results
of any valuation performed by the Independent Valuation Provider or the Approved Third-Party Appraiser to any Lender promptly upon such Lender’s request, except to the extent that such recipient has not executed and delivered a customary and
reasonable non-reliance letter, confidentiality agreement or similar agreement requested or required by such Independent Valuation Provider or Approved Third-Party Appraiser, as applicable. 

(F) The foregoing valuation procedures shall only be required to be used for purposes of calculating the Borrowing Base and
shall not be required to be utilized by the Borrower for any other purpose, including, without limitation, the delivery of financial statements or valuations required under ASC820 or the Investment Company Act. 

(G) The Independent Valuation Provider shall be instructed to conduct its tests in a manner not disruptive to the business of
the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of its receipt of the final results of any such test promptly upon its receipt thereof and shall provide a copy of such results and the related report to the Borrower promptly upon the
Borrower’s request. 
 (c) Investment Company Diversification Requirements. The Borrower (together with its Subsidiaries to the
extent required by the Investment Company Act) will at all times comply with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements set forth in the Investment Company Act applicable to business development companies. The Borrower will at all times,
subject to applicable grace periods set forth in the Code, comply with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements set forth in the Code applicable to RICs. 

  
 78 

 SECTION 5.13. Calculation of Borrowing Base. For purposes of this Agreement, the
“Borrowing Base” shall be determined, as at any date of determination, as the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (x) the Value of each Eligible Portfolio Investment by (y) the applicable Advance Rate;
provided that: 
 (a) the Advance Rate applicable to the aggregate Value of all Eligible Portfolio Investments in
their entirety shall be 0% at any time when the Borrowing Base is composed entirely of Eligible Portfolio Investments issued by less than 12 different Portfolio Companies; 

(b) the Advance Rate applicable to that portion of the Value of the Eligible Portfolio Investments issued by a single Portfolio
Company exceeding 5% of the aggregate Value of all Eligible Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base (for the avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Value for purposes of this sub-clause shall be made without taking into account any
Advance Rate), shall be 50% of the otherwise applicable Advance Rate; 
 (c) the Advance Rate applicable to that portion of
the Value of the Eligible Portfolio Investments issued by a single Portfolio Company exceeding 10% of the aggregate Value of all Eligible Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base (for the avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Value for
purposes of this sub-clause shall be made without taking into account any Advance Rate), shall be 0%. 
 (d) the portion of
the Borrowing Base attributable to Eligible Portfolio Investments that are not Cash, Cash Equivalents, Long-Term U.S. Government Securities, First Lien Bank Loans, Last Out Loans, Second Lien Bank Loans and Secured High Yield Securities in the
aggregate shall not exceed 20% of the Borrowing Base and the Borrowing Base shall be reduced by removing Eligible Portfolio Investments therefrom (but not from the Collateral) to the extent such portion would otherwise exceed 20% of the Borrowing
Base; 
 (e) if at any time the Weighted Average Leverage Ratio is greater than 4.75, the Borrowing Base shall be reduced by
removing Debt Eligible Portfolio Investments therefrom (but not from the Collateral) to the extent necessary to cause the Weighted Average Leverage Ratio to be no greater than 4.75 (subject to all other constraints, limitations and restrictions set
forth herein);

SECTION 8.01. Appointment of the Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as
its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with
such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. 
 SECTION 8.02. Capacity as Lender. The Person serving as the
Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits
from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. 

SECTION 8.03. Limitation of Duties; Exculpation. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those
expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has
occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan
Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and
shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The
Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed
not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into
(i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection
herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered
to the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 8.04. Reliance. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not
incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or 

  
 101 

 
intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement
made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel, 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. 

SECTION 8.05. Sub-Agents. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or
through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory
provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit
facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 8.06. Resignation; Successor Administrative
Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower not to be unreasonably withheld
(provided that no such consent shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations hereunder and (2) the Required Lenders shall perform the duties of the Administrative Agent (and all payments and communications provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be
made by or to each Lender directly) until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor
shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (if not
already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such
successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
acting as Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 8.07. Reliance by Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that
it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, 

  
 102 

 
continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or
thereunder. 
 SECTION 8.08. Modifications to Loan Documents. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02(b) or
9.02(c), the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the Loan Documents; provided that, without the prior consent of each
Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under any Security Document
providing for collateral security, agree to additional obligations being secured by all or substantially all of such collateral security, or alter the relative priorities of the obligations entitled to the benefits of the Liens created under the
Security Documents with respect to all or substantially all of the Collateral, except that no such consent shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Lien covering property that is the subject of either a
disposition of property permitted hereunder or a disposition to which the Required Lenders have consented.

(iii) if to any other Lender, to it at its address (or telecopy number) set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire.

 Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number or e-mail address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to
the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt. Notices delivered through

  
 104 

 
electronic communications to the extent provided in paragraph (b) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (b). 

(b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic
communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.04 if such
Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other
communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 

Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed
received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such
notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices
or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or
communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. 
 (c) Documents to be Delivered under Sections 5.01 and
5.12(a). For so long as a DebtdomainTM or equivalent website is available to each of the Lenders hereunder, the Borrower may satisfy its obligation to deliver documents to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under Sections 5.01 and
5.12(a) by delivering one hard copy thereof to the Administrative Agent and either an electronic copy or a notice identifying the website where such information is located for posting by the Administrative Agent on DebtdomainTM or such
equivalent website; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility to maintain access to DebtdomainTM or an equivalent website. 

SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No Deemed Waivers Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or
power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a 

  
 105 

 
waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

(b) Amendments to this Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to
an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that, subject to Section 2.16(b), no such
agreement shall 
 (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, 

(ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder,
without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, 
 (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the
principal amount of any Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable to a Lender hereunder, or reduce the amount or waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent
of each Lender directly affected thereby, 
 (iv) change Section 2.15(b), (c) or (d) in a manner that would
alter the pro rata sharing of payments, or making of disbursements, required thereby without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, 

(v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage in the definition of the term “Required
Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender,
or 
 (vi) permit the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document
without the consent of each Lender; 
 provided further that (x) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties
of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, and (y) the consent of Lenders holding not less than two-thirds of the total Revolving Credit Exposures and unused Commitments will be required
for (A) any change adverse to the Lenders affecting the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Borrowing Base (including the definitions used therein), or the provisions of Section 5.12(b)(ii), and (B) any release of any
material portion of the Collateral other than for fair value or as otherwise permitted hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (subject to Section 9.02(c)(ii)). 

(c) Amendments to Security Documents. No Security Document nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified, except to
the extent otherwise expressly contemplated by the Guaranty and Security Agreement, and the Liens granted under the Guaranty and Security Agreement may not be spread to secure any additional obligations

  
 106 

 
(including any increase in Loans hereunder and the incurrence of any Term Loans under the Term Loan Credit Facility, but excluding (x) any increase pursuant to any Commitment Increase under
Section 2.06(f) and/or (y) the incurrence of any Term Loan under the Term Loan Credit Facility to an amount such that immediately after giving effect to such Commitment Increase or Term Loan, the sum of (i) the total Commitments
of all of the Lenders hereunder and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans as of the date of such increase is not greater than the lesser of (x) 100% of the Obligors’ Net Worth at such date and
(y) the amount set forth in Section 2.06(f)(i)(B)(y) as in effect from time to time) except to the extent otherwise expressly contemplated by the Guaranty and Security Agreement or except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing
entered into by the Borrower, and by the Collateral Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that, subject to Section 2.16(b), (i) without the written consent of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the total
Revolving Credit Exposures and unused Commitments, no waiver, amendment or modification to the Guaranty and Security Agreement shall (A) release any Obligor representing more than 10% of the Stockholder’s Equity of the Borrower from its
obligations under the Security Documents, (B) release any guarantor representing more than 10% of the Stockholder’s Equity of the Borrower under the Guarantee and Security Agreement from its guarantee obligations thereunder, or
(C) amend the definition of “Collateral” under the Security Documents (except to add additional collateral) and (ii) without the written consent of each Lender, no such agreement shall (W) release all or substantially all of
the Obligors from their respective obligations under the Security Documents, (X) release all or substantially all of the collateral security or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under the Security Documents,
(Y) release all or substantially all of the guarantors under the Guarantee and Security Agreement from their guarantee obligations thereunder, or (Z) alter the relative priorities of the obligations entitled to the Liens created under the
Security Documents (except in connection with securing additional obligations equally and ratably with the Loans and other obligations hereunder) with respect to the collateral security provided thereby; except that no such consent described in
clause (i) or (ii) above shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized (and so agrees with the Borrower) to direct the Collateral Agent under the Guarantee and Security Agreement, to release any Lien covering
property (and to release any such guarantor) that is the subject of either a disposition of property permitted hereunder or a disposition to which the Required Lenders have consented, or otherwise in accordance with Section 9.15. 

(d) Replacement of Non-Consenting Lender. If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring (i) the
consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby,” or (ii) the consent of “two-thirds of the holders of the total Revolving Credit Exposures and unused Commitments”, the consent of the Required Lenders is
obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower shall have the right, at its
sole cost and expense, to replace each such Non-Consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.17(b) so long as at the time of such replacement, each such replacement Lender consents to the proposed
change, waiver, discharge or termination. 

  
 107 

 SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable documented and out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and their Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of up to one counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent collectively (other than the allocated costs of
internal counsel), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration (other than internal overhead charges) of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendments,
modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) including, subject to the last sentence of this clause (a), all costs and expenses of the Independent
Valuation Provider, (ii) all reasonable documented and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the
Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the
Loans made, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof and (iii) and all reasonable documented and out-of-pocket costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges
incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Security Document or any other document referred to therein. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Borrower shall not be responsible for the reimbursement of any fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Valuation Provider incurred pursuant to Sections 5.06(b) and 5.12(b)(iii) in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate incurred for all such
fees, costs and expenses in any 12-month period (the “IVP Supplemental Cap”). 
 (b) Indemnification by the
Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee
harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (other than Taxes or Other Taxes which shall only be indemnified by the Borrower to the extent provided in Section 2.14), including the reasonable and
documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee (other than the allocated costs of internal counsel), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the
execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions
contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, any arrangement entered into with an Independent Valuation Provider), (ii) any Loan or the 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 and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not as to any Indemnitee, be
available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (1) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the willful misconduct or gross
negligence of such Indemnitee, (2) result from a claim brought against such Indemnitee for breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, if 

  
 108 

 
there has been a final and nonappealable judgment against such Indemnitee on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (3) result from a claim arising as a result of a
dispute between Indemnitees (other than (x) any dispute involving claims against the Administrative Agent, in each case in their respective capacities as such, and (y) claims arising out of any act or omission by the Borrower or its
Affiliates). 
 The Borrower shall not be liable to any Indemnitee for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out
of, in connection with, or as a result of the Transactions asserted by an Indemnitee against the Borrower or any other Obligor; provided that the foregoing limitation shall not be deemed to impair or affect the Obligations of the Borrower
under the preceding provisions of this subsection. 
 (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any
amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section (and without limiting its obligation to do so) or to the extent that the fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Valuation
Provider incurred pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(iii) exceed the IVP Supplemental Cap for any 12-month period (provided that prior to incurring expenses in excess of the IVP Supplemental Cap, the Administrative Agent shall have afforded the
Lenders an opportunity to consult with the Administrative Agent regarding such expenses), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that
the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or
asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such. 
 (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of; this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

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

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. 

(a) Assignments Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted
assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section (and any attempted
assignment or transfer by any Lender which is not in accordance with this Section shall be treated as provided in the last sentence of Section 9.04(b)(iii)). 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 

  
 109 

 
permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. 

(i) Assignments Generally. Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (ii) below, any Lender may assign to one
or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed) of: 
 (A) the Borrower; provided that (i) no consent of the Borrower
shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee, and (ii) the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it
shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received written notice thereof; and 

(B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment
by a Lender to an Affiliate of a Lender with prior written notice by such Lender to the Administrative Agent. 
 (ii)
Certain Conditions to Assignments. Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each
such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise
consent; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(B) each partial assignment of Commitments or Loans shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Commitments and Loans; 
 (C) the parties to
each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee shall not be payable in
connection with an assignment to a Lender or to an Affiliate of a Lender), for which the Borrower and the Guarantors 

  
 110 

 
shall not be obligated (except in the case of an assignment pursuant to Section 2.17(b)); and 

(D) the assignee, if it shall not already be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative
Questionnaire. 
 (iii) Effectiveness of Assignments. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the
rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of
an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14
and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall
be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section. 

(c) Maintenance of Registers by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the
Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount
and “stated interest” for tax purposes of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Registers” and each individually, a “Register”). The entries in the Registers
shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Registers pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement. The Registers shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(d) Acceptance of Assignments by Administrative Agent. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an
assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any
written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective
for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (e) Special Purposes
Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”) owned or administered by such Granting Lender,
identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the 

  
 111 

 
option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make
any Loan by any SPC, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof,
(iii) the rights of any such SPC shall be derivative of the rights of the Granting Lender, and such SPC shall be subject to all of the restrictions upon the Granting Lender herein contained, and (iv) no SPC shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 2.12 (or any other increased costs protection provision), 2.13 or 2.14. Each SPC shall be conclusively presumed to have made arrangements with its Granting Lender for the exercise of voting and other rights hereunder in a
manner which is acceptable to the SPC, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, and each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Obligors shall be entitled to rely upon and deal solely with the Granting Lender with respect to
Loans made by or through its SPC. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Lender. 

Each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one
year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, in respect of claims arising out of this Agreement; provided that the Granting Lender for each SPC hereby agrees to indemnify, save and
hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage and expense arising out of their inability to institute any such proceeding against its SPC. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, any SPC
may (i) without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Lender or to any financial institutions
providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund the Loans made by such SPC or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund such Loans (but nothing contained herein shall be construed in
derogation of the obligation of the Granting Lender to make Loans hereunder); provided that neither the consent of the SPC or of any such assignee shall be required for amendments or waivers hereunder except for those amendments or waivers
for which the consent of participants is required under paragraph (1) below, and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis (in the same manner described in Section 9.13(b)) any non-public information relating to its Loans to any
rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. 
 (f)
Participations. Any Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower shall be required for any assignment to any
Ineligible Participant; provided, further, that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after receiving notice
thereof, (ii) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (iii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other 

  
 112 

 
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iv) the Borrower, the Administrative 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 and the other Loan Documents. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender
will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (g) of this Section, the Borrower
agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent
permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15(d) as though it were a Lender hereunder. Each
Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an 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 Commitments 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) 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. 

(g) Limitations on Rights of Participants. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12
or 2.13 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A
Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of
the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.14(e) as though it were a Lender. 
 (h) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time
pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, and this
Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such
assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (i) No Assignments or Participations to the Borrower or Affiliates or Certain Other
Persons. Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may (i) assign or participate any interest in any Commitment or Loan held by it hereunder to the 

  
 113 

 
Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of each Lender, or (ii) assign any interest in any Commitment or Loan held by it hereunder to a natural person or
to any Person known by such Lender at the time of such assignment to be a Defaulting Lender, a Subsidiary of a Defaulting Lender or a Person who, upon consummation of such assignment would be a Defaulting Lender. 

SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the
certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of
any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the
time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as
the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby,
the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 

SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. 

(a) Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent
constitute the entire contract between and among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become
effective when provided in Section 4.01, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement
by telecopy or electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 (b) Electronic
Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in
electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable
law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality 

  
 114 

 
and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its
Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other
obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the any Obligor against any of and all the obligations of any Obligor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective
of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of
setoff) which such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
set-off and application 
 SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 

(b) Submission to Jurisdiction. The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may
be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this
Agreement against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c) Waiver of Venue. The Borrower hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or
proceeding in any such court. 
 (d) Service of Process. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in
the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

  
 115 

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

SECTION 9.11. Judgment Currency. This is a loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars and payment in New York
City is of the essence, and Dollars shall be the currency of account in all events relating to Loans. The payment obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement shall not be discharged or satisfied by an amount paid in another currency or in
another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to Dollars and transfer to New York City under normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of Dollars in New York City
due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be the rate at which
in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase Dollars with the Other Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such
sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document (in this Section called an “Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering
such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder in the Other Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures
purchase and transfer Dollars to New York City with the amount of the Other Currency so adjudged to be due; and the Borrower hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such Entitled Person
against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in Dollars, the amount (if any) by which the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in Dollars hereunder exceeds the amount of Dollars so purchased and transferred. 

SECTION 9.12. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of
reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.13. Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. 

(a) Treatment of Certain Information. The Borrower acknowledges that from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other
services may be offered or provided to the Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by any Lender or by one or more subsidiaries or affiliates of such Lender and the

  
 116 

 
Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender to share any information delivered to such Lender by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with the decision of
such Lender to enter into this Agreement, to any such subsidiary or affiliate, it being understood that any such subsidiary or affiliate receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section as if it
were a Lender hereunder. Such authorization shall survive the repayment of the Loans, and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 

(b) Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent (including in its capacity as the Collateral Agent) and the Lenders agrees to
maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and
other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by
any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority), (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, 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 counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) to any lender under the Term Loan Credit Facility and the
administrative agent and collateral agent for such lenders (subject, in each case, to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section (which may include the Term Loan Credit Facility if it contains
confidentiality provisions substantially the same as those of this Section)), (h) with the consent of the Borrower, (i) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the
Loans, (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans, (j) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a
result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, or (k) in connection with the
Lenders’ right to grant security interest pursuant to Section 9.04(h) to the Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, or subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any other
pledgee or assignee pursuant to Section 9.04(h). 
 For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information
received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a
nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective Date, such information is clearly
identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation

  
 117 

 
to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

SECTION 9.14. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it
is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with said
Act. 
 SECTION 9.15. Termination. Promptly upon the Termination Date, the Administrative Agent shall direct the Collateral
Agent to, on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, deliver to Borrower such termination statements and releases and other documents necessary or appropriate to evidence the termination of this Agreement, the Loan
Documents, and each of the documents securing the obligations hereunder as the Borrower may reasonably request, all at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower.

Date within that Offering Period under the Plan, subject to the requirements of Section 5(a) and the limitations imposed by Section 423(b) of the Code; provided, however, that any Employee who is an Employee as of the First Offering Date

 4. Offering Periods. The Plan shall generally be
implemented by a series of Offering Periods. The first Offering Period shall commence on the First Offering Date and end on May 15 or November 15, as applicable, which is 22 1/2 months thereafter, and succeeding Offering Periods shall
commence on May 16 or November 16, as applicable, immediately following the end of the previous Offering Period and end on May 15 or November 15, as applicable, which is 24 months thereafter. If, however, the Fair Market Value of
a share of Common Stock on any Exercise Date (except the final scheduled Exercise Date of any Offering Period) is lower than the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Offering Date, then the Offering Period in progress shall end
immediately following the close of trading on such Exercise Date, and a new Offering Period shall begin on the next subsequent May 16 or November 16, as applicable, and shall extend for a 24 month period ending on November 15 or
May 15, as applicable. Subsequent Offering Periods shall commence on May 16 or November 16, as applicable, immediately following the end of the previous Offering Period and shall extend for a 24 month period ending on November 15
or May 15, as applicable. The Committee shall have the power to make other changes to the duration and/or the frequency of Offering Periods with respect to future offerings if such change is announced at least five (5) days prior to the
scheduled beginning of the first Offering Period to be affected and the Offering Period does not exceed 24 months. 
 5. Election to
Participate. 
 (a) An eligible Employee may elect to participate in the Plan commencing on any Entry Date by completing an enrollment
agreement on the form provided by the Company and filing the enrollment agreement with the Company on or prior to such Entry Date, unless a later time for filing the enrollment agreement is set by the Committee for all eligible Employees with
respect to a given offering. The enrollment agreement shall set forth the percentage of the Participant’s Compensation that is to be withheld by payroll deduction pursuant to the Plan. 

(b) Except as otherwise determined by the Committee under rules applicable to all Participants, payroll deductions for a Participant shall
commence on the first payroll date following the Entry Date on which the Participant elects to participate in accordance with Section 5(a) and shall end on the last payroll date in the Offering Period, unless sooner terminated by the
Participant as provided in Section 11. 
 (c) Unless a Participant elects otherwise prior to the last Exercise Date of an Offering
Period, including the last Exercise Date prior to termination in the case of an Offering Period terminated by operation of the rule contained in Section 4 hereof, such Participant shall be deemed (i) to have elected to participate in the
immediately succeeding Offering Period (and, for purposes of such Offering Period such Participant’s “Entry Date” shall be deemed to be the first day of such Offering Period) and (ii) to have authorized the same payroll deduction
for such immediately succeeding Offering Period as was in effect for such Participant immediately prior to the commencement of such succeeding Offering Period. 

6. Participant Contributions. 

(a) Except as otherwise authorized by the Committee pursuant to Section 6(d) below, all Participant contributions to the Plan shall be
made only by payroll deductions. At the time a Participant files the enrollment agreement with respect to an Offering Period, the Participant may authorize payroll deductions to be made on each payroll date during the portion of the Offering Period
that he or she is a Participant in an amount not less than 1% and not more than 15% of the Participant’s Compensation on each payroll date during the portion of the Offering Period that he or she is a Participant (or subsequent Offering Periods
as provided in Section 5(c)). The amount of payroll deductions shall be a whole percentage (i.e., 1%, 2%, 3%, etc.) of the Participant’s Compensation. 

 (b) A Participant may discontinue his or her participation in the Plan as provided in
Section 11, or may decrease or increase the rate or amount of his or her payroll deductions during such Offering Period (within the limitations of Section 6(a) above) by completing and filing with the Company a new enrollment agreement
authorizing a change in the rate or amount of payroll deductions; provided, that a Participant may not change the rate or amount of his or her payroll deductions more than once in any Exercise Period. The change in rate or amount shall be effective
with the first full payroll period following ten (10) business days after the Company’s receipt of the new enrollment agreement. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(b) hereof, a
Participant’s payroll deductions may be decreased to 0% at such time during any Exercise Period which is scheduled to end during the current calendar year that the aggregate of all payroll deductions accumulated with respect to such Exercise
Period and any other Exercise Period ending within the same calendar year are equal to the product of $25,000 multiplied by the Applicable Percentage for the calendar year. Payroll deductions shall recommence at the rate provided in the
Participant’s enrollment agreement at the beginning of the following Exercise Period which is scheduled to end in the following calendar year, unless terminated by the Participant as provided in Section 11. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, but subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3(b), the Committee may
permit Participants to make after-tax contributions to the Plan at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may in its discretion determine. All such additional contributions shall be made in a manner consistent with the
provisions of Section 423 of the Code or any successor thereto, and shall be held in Participants’ accounts and applied to the purchase of shares of Common Stock pursuant to options granted under this Plan in the same manner as payroll
deductions contributed to the Plan as provided above. 
 (e) All Plan Contributions made for a Participant shall be deposited in the
Company’s general corporate account and shall be credited to the Participant’s account under the Plan. No interest shall accrue or be credited with respect to a Participant’s Plan Contributions. All Plan Contributions received or held
by the Company may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate or otherwise set apart such Plan Contributions from any other corporate funds. 

7. Grant of Option. 
 (a)
On a Participant’s Entry Date, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3(b) and 12(a), the Participant shall be granted an option to purchase on each subsequent Exercise Date during the Offering Period in which such Entry Date occurs
(at the Exercise Price determined as provided in Section 8 below) up to a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing such Participant’s Plan Contributions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the
Participant’s account as of such Exercise Date by the Exercise Price; provided, that the maximum number of shares an Employee may purchase during any Exercise Period shall be Six Hundred Fifty (650) shares. The Fair Market Value of a share
of Common Stock shall be determined as provided in Section 7(b). 
 (b) The Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on a given date
shall be determined by the Committee in its discretion; provided, that if there is a public market for the Common Stock, the Fair Market Value per share shall be either (i) the closing price of the Common Stock on such date (or, in the event
that the Common Stock is not traded on such date, on the immediately preceding trading date), as reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation (Nasdaq) National Market System, (ii) if such price is not reported,
the average of the bid and asked prices for the Common Stock on such date (or, in the event that the Common Stock is not traded on such date, on the immediately preceding trading date), as reported by Nasdaq, (iii) in the event the Common Stock
is listed on a stock exchange, the closing price of the Common Stock on such exchange on such date (or, in the event that the Common Stock is not traded on such date, on the immediately preceding trading date), as reported in The Wall Street
Journal, or (iv) if no such quotations are available for a date within a reasonable time prior to the valuation date, the value of the Common Stock as determined by the Committee using any reasonable means. 

 8. Exercise Price. The Exercise Price per share of Common Stock offered to each
Participant in a given Offering Period shall be the lower of: (i) the Applicable Percentage of the greater of (A) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Offering Date or (B) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common
Stock on the Entry Date on which the Employee elects to become a Participant within the Offering Period or (ii) the Applicable Percentage of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date. The Applicable Percentage with
respect to each Offering Period shall be 85%, unless and until such Applicable Percentage is increased by the Committee, in its sole discretion, provided that any such increase in the Applicable Percentage with respect to a given Offering Period
must be established not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Offering Date thereof. 
 9. Exercise of Options. Unless the
Participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 11, the Participant’s option for the purchase of shares will be exercised automatically on each Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full shares subject to such option shall be
purchased for the Participant at the applicable Exercise Price with the accumulated Plan Contributions then credited to the Participant’s account under the Plan. During a Participant’s lifetime, a Participant’s option to purchase
shares hereunder is exercisable only by the Participant. 
 10. Delivery. As promptly as practicable after each Exercise Date, the
Company shall arrange for the delivery to each Participant (or the Participant’s beneficiary), as appropriate, or to a custodial account for the benefit of each Participant (or the Participant’s beneficiary) as appropriate, of a
certificate representing the shares purchased upon exercise of such Participant’s option. Any amount remaining to the credit of a Participant’s account after an Offering Period (other than an amount which is insufficient to purchase a full
share of common stock) shall be returned to the Participant as soon as administratively practicable after the end of the Offering Period. 

11. Withdrawal; Termination of Employment. 

(a) A Participant may withdraw from the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the Company. All of the Plan Contributions credited to the
Participant’s account and not yet invested in Common Stock will be paid to the Participant as soon as administratively practicable after receipt of the Participant’s notice of withdrawal, the Participant’s option to purchase shares
pursuant to the Plan will automatically be terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of shares will be made for the Participant’s account. Payroll deductions will not resume on behalf of a Participant who has withdrawn from
the Plan (a “Former Participant”) unless the Former Participant enrolls in a subsequent Offering Period in accordance with Section 5(a). 

(b) Upon termination of the Participant’s Continuous Status as an Employee prior to any Exercise Date for any reason, including retirement
or death, the Plan Contributions credited to the Participant’s account and not yet invested in Common Stock will be returned to the Participant or, in the case of death, to the Participant’s beneficiary as determined pursuant to
Section 14, and the Participant’s option to purchase shares under the Plan will automatically terminate. 
 (c) A
Participant’s withdrawal from an Offering Period will not have any effect upon the Participant’s eligibility to participate in succeeding Offering Periods or in any similar plan which may hereafter be adopted by the Company. 

12. Stock. 
 (a) Subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 17, the maximum number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock that shall be made available for sale under the Plan shall be equal to the sum of (i) any shares available for issuance under the
Company’s 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (the “Prior Plan”) on the First Offering Date (and such shares shall no longer be available for issuance under the Prior Plan) but not to exceed 650,000 shares, (ii) an
automatic annual increase on the first day of each of the Company’s fiscal years beginning in 2012 and ending in 2019 equal to the lesser of (A) Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) shares, (B) 1% of all shares of Common Stock
outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, or (C) a lesser amount determined by the Board. The cumulative shares authorized under the Plan shall be less than 10% of shares outstanding from time to time, unless a
greater number of shares is authorized by the Company’s shareholders. Shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan may be newly issued shares or shares reacquired in private transactions or open market purchases. If and to the extent that any
right to purchase reserved shares shall not be exercised by any Participant for any reason or if such right to purchase shall terminate as provided herein, shares that have not been so purchased hereunder shall again become available for the purpose
of the Plan unless the Plan shall have been terminated, but all shares sold under the Plan, regardless of source, shall be counted against the limitation set forth above. 

 (b) A Participant will have no interest or voting right in shares covered by his option until
such option has been exercised. 
 (c) Shares to be delivered to a Participant under the Plan will be registered in the name of the
Participant or in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse, as requested by the Participant. 
 13. Administration. 

(a) The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have the authority to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and
rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The administration, interpretation, or application of the Plan by the Committee shall be final,
conclusive and binding upon all persons. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (a) of this Section 13, in the event
that Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act or any successor provision thereto (“Rule 16b-3”) provides specific requirements for the administrators of plans of this type, the Plan shall only be administered by such body and in such
a manner as shall comply with the applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3. Unless permitted by Rule 16b-3, no discretion concerning decisions regarding the Plan shall be afforded to any person that is not “disinterested” as that term is used
in Rule 16b-3. 
 14. Designation of Beneficiary. 

(a) A Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the Participant’s
account under the Plan in the event of the Participant’s death subsequent to an Exercise Date on which the Participant’s option hereunder is exercised but prior to delivery to the Participant of such shares and cash. In addition, a
Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of the Participant’s death prior to the exercise of the option. 

(b) A Participant’s beneficiary designation may be changed by the Participant at any time by written notice. In the event of the death of
a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company shall deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the
Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the
Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate. 
 15.
Transferability. Neither Plan Contributions credited to a Participant’s account nor any rights to exercise any option or receive shares of Common Stock under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any
way (other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or as provided in Section 14). Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge or other distribution shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election
to withdraw funds in accordance with Section 11. 
 16. Participant Accounts. Individual accounts will be maintained for each
Participant in the Plan to account for the balance of his Plan Contributions and options issued and shares purchased under the Plan. Statements of account will be given to Participants semi-annually in due course following each Exercise Date, which
statements will set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the per share purchase price, the number of shares purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any. 

17. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization; Corporate Transactions. 

(a) If the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased or decreased, or are changed into or are exchanged for a different number or kind
of shares, as a result of one or more reorganizations, restructurings, recapitalizations, reclassifications, stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, stock repurchases, or the like, equitable and proportionate adjustments shall be made
by the Committee in the number and/or kind of shares, and the per-share option price thereof, which may be issued in the aggregate and to any Participant upon exercise of options granted under the Plan. 

 (b) In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Offering Period
will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Committee. In the event of a proposed sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or the merger of the Company with or
into another corporation (each, a “Sale Transaction”), each option under the Plan shall be assumed or an equivalent option shall be substituted by such successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation, unless
the Committee determines, in the exercise of its sole discretion and in lieu of such assumption or substitution, to shorten the Exercise Period then in progress by setting a new Exercise Date (the “New Exercise Date”). If the Committee
shortens the Exercise Period then in progress in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a Sale Transaction, the Committee shall notify each Participant in writing, at least ten (10) days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the
exercise date for such Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that such Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from
the Plan as provided in Section 11. For purposes of this Section 17(b), an option granted under the Plan shall be deemed to have been assumed if, following the Sale Transaction, the option confers the right to purchase, for each share of
option stock subject to the option immediately prior to the Sale Transaction, the consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property) received in the Sale Transaction by holders of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock held on
the effective date of the Sale Transaction (and if such holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock); provided, that if the consideration
received in the Sale Transaction was not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its parent (as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code), the Committee may, with the consent of the successor corporation and the Participant, provide
for the consideration to be received upon exercise of the option to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by the holders of Common Stock in the Sale
Transaction. 
 (c) In all cases, the Committee shall have sole discretion to exercise any of the powers and authority provided under this
Section 17, and the Committee’s actions hereunder shall be final and binding on all Participants. No fractional shares of stock shall be issued under the Plan pursuant to any adjustment authorized under the provisions of this
Section 17. 
 18. Amendment of the Plan. The Board or the Committee may at any time, or from time to time, amend the Plan in any
respect; provided, that (i) no such amendment may make any change in any option theretofore granted which adversely affects the rights of any Participant; and (ii) the Plan may not be amended in any way that will cause rights issued under
the Plan to fail to meet the requirements for employee stock purchase plans as defined in Section 423 of the Code or any successor thereto. To the extent necessary to comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, Section 423 of the Code,
or any other applicable law or regulation), the Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any such amendment. 
 19. Termination of the
Plan. The Plan and all rights of Employees hereunder shall terminate on the earliest of: 
 (a) the Exercise Date that Participants
become entitled to purchase a number of shares greater than the number of reserved shares remaining available for purchase under the Plan; or 

(b) such date as is determined by the Board in its discretion. 

In the event that the Plan terminates under circumstances described in Section 19(a) above, reserved shares remaining as of the
termination date shall be sold to Participants on a pro rata basis. 
 20. Notices. All notices or other communications by a
Participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof. 

 21. Effective Date. Subject to adoption of the Plan by the Board, the Plan shall become
