“Administrative Agent”) and as Swing Line Lender (in such capacity, the “Swing Line Lender”), and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., and WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as L/C Issuers (each an “L/C

 WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Lenders, the
Administrative Agent, and the other agents named therein are parties to that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April 4, 2007 (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”).

 WHEREAS, the Borrower and the undersigned Lenders have agreed to amend the Credit Agreement as set forth in
Section 2 below. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
 SECTION
1.    Definitions.    Unless otherwise defined in this Amendment, terms used in this Amendment which are defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit
Agreement. The interpretive provisions set forth in Section 1.02 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to this Amendment. 
 SECTION 2.    Amendments to the Credit Agreement. 
 (a)        Section 2.05(a) of the Credit Agreement (Swing Line Loans) is hereby amended by replacing the period at the end of the first sentence thereof with the following language:
“and provided, further, that the Swing Line Lender shall be under no obligation to make Swing Line Loans if any Lender at such time is a Defaulting Lender, (i) except pursuant to Section 2.05(g), which provides for, at the time such
Swing Line Loan is made, cash collateral for the Swing Line Lender in the amount and on the terms required by Section 2.05(g) and such other administrative rules and regulations from time to time agreed upon by the Swing Line Lender and the
Borrower, or (ii) unless the Borrower has requested and made other arrangements satisfactory to the Swing Line Lender to eliminate the Swing Line Lender’s risk with respect to such Lender.” 
 (b)        Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement (Swing Line Loans) is hereby
amended by adding a new Section 2.05(g) to read as follows: 
     “(g) Cash
Collateral if There is a Defaulting Lender. If at the time the Borrower requests a Swing Line Loan any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.05(a)(ii), disbursement to the Borrower of such
requested Swing Line Loan shall be as follows: (i) an amount equal to such Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Share of such requested Swing Line Loan (or, in lieu thereof, such other amount as shall be agreed by the Company and the Swing Line
Lender) shall be deemed disbursed to the Borrower pursuant to the Borrower’s contemporaneous instruction to the Swing Line Lender to deposit such amount as cash collateral into a cash collateral account in the Borrower’s name on deposit
with (and, pursuant to the cash collateral agreement, under the control of) the Swing Line Lender, and (ii) the remainder shall be credited to the Borrower’s account as provided in Section 2.05(b). Such 

 amount of cash collateral for each Swing Line Loan shall remain on deposit until the
earlier to occur of (i) such Swing Line Loan has been repaid in full or refinanced in full in accordance with Section 2.05(c)(i) or all Lenders have funded their risk participations in such Swing Line Loan in accordance with
Section 2.05(c), and (ii) such earlier time, if any, as shall be agreed by the Swing Line Lender; provided, however, that the Swing Line Lender shall be under no obligation to release any cash collateral deposited in accordance with
this Section 2.05(g) at any time that a Default or Event of Default exists. Such cash collateral account shall be established and maintained pursuant to a cash collateral agreement satisfactory to the Borrower and the Swing Line Lender.
For the avoidance of doubt, the collateral provided for in this Section 2.05(g) shall not be subject to the sharing provisions set forth in Section 2.14.” 
 (c)        Section 7.01(a) of the Credit Agreement (Liens) is hereby amended
in its entirety to read as follows: “(a) Liens pursuant to any Loan Document or securing any Obligation in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans as contemplated by Section 2.04(a)(ii)(F) or Section 2.05(a)
or;” 
 (d)        Section 10.16(a) of the Credit Agreement
(Removal and Replacement of Lenders) is hereby amended by replacing the language “Under any circumstances set forth herein providing that the Borrower shall have the right to remove or replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement,” with
the following language: 
     “If (1) (A) such Lender or the Person that
controls such Lender has been deemed insolvent or has become the subject of a bankruptcy, receivership or insolvency proceeding, and (B) such Lender has failed to fund any portion of the Committed Loans, participations in L/C Obligations, or
participations in Swing Line Loans required to be funded by it hereunder within one Business Day following the date required to be funded by it hereunder, unless cured; or (2) under any other circumstances set forth herein providing that the
Borrower shall have the right to remove or replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement,” 
 SECTION
3.    Conditions of Effectiveness.    The amendment to the Credit Agreement set forth in Section 2 of this Amendment shall be effective on the Amendment Effective Date, provided that

 (b)        such certificates of resolution or other action, incumbency certificates and/or other
certificate of the appropriate officers of the Borrower and the General Partner as the Administrative Agent may require evidencing the identity, authority and capacity of the Responsible Officer signing this Amendment. 
 SECTION 4.    Acknowledgment and Ratification.    As a material inducement to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders to execute and deliver this Amendment, the Borrower agrees and acknowledges that the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall, except as expressly provided herein, in no way release, diminish,

circumstance since December 31, 2008 which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

to the execution, delivery or performance by, or enforcement against, the Borrower of this Amendment. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Amendment has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other
organizational action, and does not and will not (i) violate the terms of any of the Borrower’s Organization Documents, (ii) result in any breach of, constitute a default under, or require pursuant to the express provisions thereof,

subject, or (iii) violate any Law, in each case with respect to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 6.     Effect of Amendment. 
 (a)        This Amendment (i) except as expressly provided herein, shall not be deemed to be a consent to the modification or waiver of any other term
or condition of the Credit Agreement or of any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein and (ii) shall not prejudice any right or rights which the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may now have under or in connection with the
Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment. Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Amendment, all of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Credit Agreement shall remain the same. It is declared and agreed by each of the parties
hereto that the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, shall continue in full force and effect, and that this Amendment and such Credit Agreement shall be read and construed as one instrument.

including the schedules and exhibits thereto and the other documents delivered in connection therewith, to the “Credit Agreement,” “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein,” or words of like
import, shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

 “Undrawn Fee Rate” means, for any day, a rate per
annum equal to the lesser of (i) 25.0% multiplied by the Borrower’s senior credit default swap mid-rate spread provided by Markit through its website for the two-year period commencing on the most recent Spread Determination Date with
respect to the Undrawn Fee Rate and obtained by the Administrative Agent from such website on such Spread Determination Date and (ii) 1.50%; provided, that if for any reason such spread is not available on such Spread Determination Date,
the term “Undrawn Fee Rate” shall mean, for such day, 1.50%. Each change in the Undrawn Fee Rate shall be effective on and after the applicable Spread Determination Date until the date immediately preceding the next applicable Spread
Determination Date on which the Undrawn Fee Rate differs from the previously effective Undrawn Fee Rate. 
 “Unrestricted Subsidiaries” means any Subsidiary of the Borrower that is designated to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the date hereof; provided,
however, that no Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if, (i) on the effective date of designation, a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the creation, formation or acquisition of
such Subsidiary would not otherwise be permitted under Section 7.04 hereof, (iii) the creation, acquisition or formation of such Subsidiary would not be permitted under the Mortgage Note Agreements or any other material contract or
agreement to which the Borrower is a party, or (iv) based on the financial statements most recently delivered pursuant to Section 6.01 or the good faith determination by the Borrower, such Subsidiary is a Material Subsidiary. If an
Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Material Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall no longer be deemed an Unrestricted Subsidiary. 
 “Voting Percentage” means, as to any Lender, (a) at any time when the Commitments are in effect, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share and (b) at any time after the termination of the Commitments, the
percentage (carried out to the ninth decimal place) which the sum of the Outstanding Amount of such Lender’s Loans then constitutes of the Outstanding Amount of all Loans; provided, however, that if any Lender has failed to fund
any portion of the Loans required to be funded by it hereunder, such Lender’s Voting Percentage shall be deemed to be zero 

  

 23 

 
percent (0%), and the respective Pro Rata Shares and Voting Percentages of the other Lenders shall be recomputed for purposes of this definition and the
definition of “Required Lenders” without regard to such Lender’s Commitment or the outstanding amount of its Loans. 
 “Wholly-Owned” when used to describe a Subsidiary of any Person means that all of the equity of such Subsidiary is wholly owned by such Person, either directly or indirectly through another wholly-owned Subsidiary of
such Person.

 ARTICLE II. 

 THE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS 
 2.01     Committed Loans. 
 Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make loans (each, a “Committed Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date (or, if
earlier, the Revolving Termination Date); provided, however, that after giving effect to any Borrowing, (i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Loans shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of the Committed Loans of any Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment. Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this
Section 2.01, prepay under Section 2.06, and reborrow under this Section 2.01. Committed Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein. 
 2.02     Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Committed Loans. 
 (a)        Each Borrowing, each conversion of Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be,
from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, as the same Type shall be made upon the relevant Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent. Each such notice must be
received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, (i) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any such Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of any such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans or of any
conversion of any such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Committed Base Rate Loans. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of any such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate
Loans shall be in a principal amount of $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each Borrowing of or conversion to any such Base Rate Loans 

  

 25 

 
shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Each Loan Notice shall specify (i) whether the Borrower
is requesting a Borrowing, a conversion of Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, as the same Type, (ii) the requested date of the
Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to
be borrowed or to which existing Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, are to be converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Committed Loan
or Term Loan, as the case may be, in a Loan Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, shall be made or continued as, or
converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a
Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. 
 (b)        Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Lender of its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Committed Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to
Base Rate Loans described in the preceding subsection. In the case of a Borrowing, each Lender shall make the amount of its Committed Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office
not later than 1:00 p.m., New York time, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension,
Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the
Administrative Agent with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower. 
 (c)        Except as otherwise provided herein, a Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan may be
continued or converted only on the last day of the Interest Period for such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default or Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Fixed Period Eurodollar
Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Lenders, and the Required Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans be converted to Base Rate Loans at the end of the respective Interest Periods
therefor, if at the end of such periods, a Default or an Event of Default is then in existence. 
 (d)        The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan upon determination of such interest
rate. The determination of the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change in its referenced prime
rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change. 
  

 26 

 (e)           After giving effect
to all Borrowings, all conversions of Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, as the same Type, there shall not be more than 5
Interest Periods in effect with respect to Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be. 
 2.03        Intentionally Blank. 
 2.04        Intentionally Blank. 
 2.05        Intentionally Blank. 
 2.06        Prepayments. 
 (a)           The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, in whole
or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Fixed Period
Eurodollar Rate Loans, and (B) one Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of
Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such
prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any
additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment shall be applied to the Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. 
 (b)          If for any reason the Outstanding Amount of all Loans at any time exceeds
the Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall immediately prepay its Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. 
 2.07        Reduction or Termination of Commitments. 
 The Borrower
may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Commitments, or permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments to an amount not less than the then Outstanding Amount of all Loans; provided that (i) any such notice
shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, and (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple
of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of reduction or termination of the Aggregate 

  

 27 

 
Commitments. Once reduced in accordance with this Section, the Aggregate Commitments may not be increased. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall
be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Pro Rata Share. All undrawn fees and funding fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

 2.08  Repayment of Loans. 
 The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding on such date which were made to it. 
 2.09  Interest. 
 (a)     Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each
Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the
applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (b)     In the event any amount due hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, any interest payment) is not paid when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise), the Borrower shall
pay interest on such unpaid amount (including, without limitation, interest on interest) at a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due
amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. 
 (c)     Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in
accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 
 2.10    Fees. 
 (a)      Revolving Period Fees. 
   (i)        Undrawn Fee.    The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, an undrawn
fee equal to the Undrawn Fee Rate multiplied by the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Commitments exceed the Outstanding Amount of the Loans. The undrawn fee shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date until the earlier of the Maturity
Date and the Revolving Termination Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Revolving Fee Payment Date. The undrawn fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Undrawn Fee Rate during any
quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Undrawn Fee Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Undrawn Fee Rate was in effect. The undrawn fee shall accrue at all times during which it is
applicable, including at any such time during 

  

 28 

 
which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, the undrawn fee shall cease
to accrue on and shall not be payable by Borrower with respect to the unfunded portion of the Commitment of any Lender if such Lender has failed to fund any portion of its Committed Loans within one Business Day following the date required to be
funded by it hereunder. 
 (ii)      Funding
Fee.    The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, on each Revolving Fee Payment Date, a funding fee equal to 1.00% multiplied by the average
aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans during the period from the previous Revolving Fee Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Revolving Fee Payment Date, the Closing Date) through such Revolving Fee Payment Date; provided, that in
the case of the first and last Revolving Fee Payment Date, such amount shall be pro rated to the extent such period is less than a full calendar quarter. 
 (b)    Term-Out Period Fees. 
 (i)      Term-Out Fee.    If the Borrower exercises its option to Term-Out pursuant to Section 2.17, then on the Revolving Termination Date, Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, an amount equal to 2.00% multiplied by the Outstanding Amount of Loans as of such date. 
 (ii)      Duration Fee.      If the Borrower has
exercised its option to Term-Out pursuant to Section 2.17, then Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share (i) on the 90th day after the Revolving Termination
Date, a fee in an amount equal to 0.50% multiplied by the Outstanding Amount of the Loans (if any) as of such date, (ii) on the 180th day after the Revolving Termination Date, a fee in an amount equal to 0.75% multiplied by the Outstanding
Amount of the Loans (if any) as of such date, and (iii) on the 270th day after the Revolving Termination Date, a fee in an amount equal to 1.00% multiplied by the Outstanding Amount of the Loans (if any) as of such date. 
 (c)    Other Fees.    The Borrower shall pay to the Lead Arranger, the Administrative
Agent and the applicable Lenders, for their own respective accounts, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letters. 
 2.11  Computation of Interest and Fees. 
 Computation of interest on Base
Rate Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed. Computation of all other types of interest and all fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and
the actual number of days elapsed, which results in a higher yield to the payee thereof than a method based on a year of 365 or 366 days. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or
any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. 
  

 29 

 2.12     Evidence of Debt. 
 The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the
Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each such Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by such Lenders to the
Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans. In the event
of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any such Lender, as the case may be, and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall be
presumed to be prima facie evidence of such matters absent manifest error. Upon the request of any such Lender, made through the Administrative Agent, such Lender’s Loans may be evidenced by a Note, in addition to such accounts or records. Each
such Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of the applicable Loans and payments with respect thereto. 
 2.13     Payments Generally. 
 (a)        All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all
payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later
than 12:00 noon, New York time, on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire
transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00 noon, New York time, shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to
accrue. 
 (b)        Subject to the definition of “Interest Period,” if
any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

 (c)        If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the
Administrative Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward Obligations in respect of any cost or expense reimbursements (including Attorney Costs and amounts payable under
Article III), fees and indemnities then due hereunder to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second, toward Obligations in respect of any cost or expense reimbursements (including Attorney Costs and amounts payable under Article
III), fees and indemnities then due hereunder to the Lenders, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with such amounts then due to such parties, (iii) third, toward repayment of interest then due hereunder, ratably
among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest then due to such parties, (iv) fourth, toward repayment of principal then due hereunder, 

  

 30 

 
ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties and (v) fifth, to all other
Obligations then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with such amounts then due to such parties. 
 (d)        (i)        Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any
Borrowing of Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Committed Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such
Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender
has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If any Lender failed to make such payment, such
Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the
Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (A) the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect and (B) a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing. If such
Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s
demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay (subject to its recoupment rights from and remedies against such defaulting Lender of any breakage costs paid by the Borrower when
repaying such amount) such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to
relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. If the Borrower and such
Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. 
 (ii)        Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders 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, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment
to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
  

 31 

 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender with respect to any amount owing under
this subsection (d) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (e)        If
any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article
IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 
 (f)        The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Committed Loans and to make payments
pursuant to Section 10.05(b) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Committed Loan or to make any payment under Section 10.05(b) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of
its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Committed Loan or to make its payment under Section 10.05(b). 
 (g)        Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan
in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 
 2.14      Sharing of Payments. 
 If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, made by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right
of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such
participations in the Committed Loans or Term Loans, as the case may be, made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Committed Loan or Term Loans, as the case may be, or such
participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded
and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s
required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so
purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as
if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this
Section and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests,
demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. 
  

 32 

 2.15      Intentionally Blank. 
 2.16      Increase in Commitments. 
 (a)        Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default or Event of Default,
upon (1) notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), and (2) contemporaneous notice (with copy thereof to the Administrative Agent) to Persons not then Lenders (each such Person, a “Proposed
Lender”), the Borrower shall have the right to effectuate from time to time and at any time, in accordance with the terms hereof, an increase in the aggregate amount of the then Commitments provided that (i) the aggregate
Commitments as so increased may not exceed $350,000,000, (ii) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, and in multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof and (iii) no such increase shall occur on or after
the Revolving Termination Date. At the time of sending such notices, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender and Proposed Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no
event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). 
 (b)        Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if
so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share (as it existed immediately prior to such requested increase) of such requested increase. Each Proposed Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
within such time period whether or not it agrees to participate in such increased amount of the aggregate Commitments, and at what amount it proposes to participate in such increased amount. Unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower, any Lender or
Proposed Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment, or participate in the increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments, as the case may be. 
 (c)        Notification by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrower and each Lender and Proposed Lender of the Lenders’ and Proposed Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. 
 (d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the aggregate amount of Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the respective effective date
thereof (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Proposed Lenders of such final allocation of such increase and such
Increase Effective Date. 
 (e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As conditions precedent to each increase,
(1) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer dated as of the applicable Increase Effective Date (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower authorizing such
increase, and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in Article V of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and

  

 33 

 
correct on and as of such applicable Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to a different
date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists, (2) each Proposed Lender that is becoming a Lender shall (A) be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (B) execute and deliver a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower and (3) the Borrower shall deliver to
the Administrative Agent (A) evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that the Parent Commitment has been permanently reduced by an amount equal to such increase in the Aggregate Commitments concurrently with such increase
and (B) such other documents, instruments and agreements as it shall reasonably request. The Borrower shall prepay any Loans outstanding on such applicable Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to
Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with the Pro Rata Shares arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section and in effect after giving effect thereto. 
 (f)        Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in
Sections 2.14 or 10.01 to the contrary. 
 2.17      Term-Out Option. 

 (a)        Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Borrower may, upon prior written notice to the Administrative Agent sent not earlier than 60 days prior to, nor later than 10 days prior to, the Scheduled Maturity Date, elect to have the principal balance of the Loans outstanding on the
Scheduled Maturity Date (the “Revolving Termination Date”) continued to the Term Loan Maturity Date as non-revolving Term Loans (the “Term-Out”). As conditions precedent to the Term-Out, the Borrower
shall (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Revolving Termination Date signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower
approving or consenting to such Term-Out, and (B) certifying that as of the Revolving Termination Date, (1) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material
respects on and as of the Revolving Termination Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to a different date, in which case they are true and correct as of such date, (2) since the date of the
Audited Financial Statements to the Revolving Termination Date, there has been no event or circumstance that has, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect, (3) except as specifically disclosed in Schedule 5.06, and
matters covered by insurance or indemnification agreements, as of the Revolving Termination Date, there are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower after investigation, overtly threatened, at
law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental Authority, by or against the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Unrestricted Subsidiaries or against any of their properties or revenues of which there is a reasonable
possibility of a determination adverse to such Person and which, if determined adversely, could have a Material Adverse Effect, and (4) no Default or Event of Default exists, (ii) deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that the Borrower shall have concurrently exercised the term out option under the Parent Credit Agreement and (iii) pay all fees due and owing on the Revolving Termination Date pursuant to
Section 2.10(b)(i). 
  

 34 

 (b)        From and after the Revolving
Termination Date, the Borrower may prepay hereunder, without premium or penalty (subject to payment of amounts due, if any, pursuant to Section 3.05), but not reborrow, the outstanding Term Loans. 
 ARTICLE III. 
 TAXES, YIELD
PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
 3.01      Taxes. 
 (a)        Any and all payments by the Borrower to or for the account of the Administrative Agent
or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with
respect thereto, excluding, in the case of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision
thereof) under the Laws of which the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a lending office (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar
charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender, (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), the Administrative Agent and such Lender each
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other
authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a
receipt evidencing payment thereof. 
 (b)        In addition, the Borrower agrees to
pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies (but specifically excluding all other United States federal taxes, other than withholding taxes, unless such
exclusion is not required as a condition for an exemption from reporting requirements under Sections 6011, 6111, or 6112 of the Code) which arise from any payment made by it under any Loan Document or from its execution, delivery, performance,
enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document to which it is a party (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 
 (c)        If the Borrower shall be required to deduct or pay any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to
which it is a party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall also pay to the Administrative Agent (for the account of such Lender) or to such Lender, at the time interest is paid, such additional amount that such Lender
specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield (after factoring in all taxes, including taxes imposed on or measured by net income) such Lender would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed. 
  

 35 

 (d)        In respect of related Obligations owed
by it, the Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section)
paid by the Administrative Agent and such Lender, (ii) amounts payable under Section 3.01(c) and (iii) any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether
or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payment under this subsection (d) shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender or the Administrative Agent makes a
demand therefor which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amounts demanded, the basis therefor and the calculations in respect thereto. 
 3.02      Illegality. 
 If any Lender determines that any Law enacted, construed or announced after the Closing Date has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any
Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans, or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the applicable offshore Dollar market,
or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Fixed Period Eurodollar
Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended 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, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of
the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any
such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. If any such Law, or change therein, shall only affect a portion of such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement which is, in the
opinion of such Lender and the Administrative Agent, severable from the remainder of this Agreement so that the remainder of this Agreement may be continued in full force and effect without otherwise affecting any of the obligations of the
Administrative Agent, the other Lenders or the Borrower, such Lender shall only declare its obligations under that portion so terminated. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such
notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 3.03      Inability to Determine Rates. 
 If the Administrative Agent
determines in connection with any request for a Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not 

  

 36 

 
being offered to banks in the applicable offshore Dollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan,
(b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate for such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (c) the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate for such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and all Lenders. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Fixed
Period Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may, without liability for any attendant breakage costs, revoke any pending request for a Borrowing,
conversion or continuation of Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 
 3.04      Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy Reserves on Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate
Loans. 
 (a)        If any Lender determines that as a result of the
introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Law, in each case on or after the Closing Date, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making,
funding or maintaining Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loans, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this subsection (a) any such increased costs or
reduction in amount resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 3.01 shall govern), (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or any foreign
jurisdiction or any political subdivision of either thereof under the Laws of which such Lender is organized or has its Lending Office, and (iii) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)), then from time to time upon
demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. 
 (b)        If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law regarding capital adequacy
or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a
consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of
such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. 
 (c)        The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or
assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional costs on the unpaid principal amount of each Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as
determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least 15 days’ prior
notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 15 days from
receipt of such notice. 
  

 37 

 (d)        Each Lender agrees that it will not
claim, and that it shall not be entitled to claim, from the Borrower the payment of any of the amounts referred to in this Section 3.04 (i) if it is not generally claiming similar compensation from its other similar customers in
similar circumstances and (ii) unless the relevant introduction or change affects all banks and other financial institutions substantially similar to such Lender having regard to the size, business activities and regulatory capital of such
banks and other financial institutions, but excluding differences based solely on the residency of Persons controlling such banks or other financial institutions. In addition, each Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to reduce the amount it
requests pursuant to Section 3.04, including using its reasonable efforts to not assign or transfer any Loan to any Person if such assignment or transfer would or would be likely to increase the amount of such amounts payable;
provided, however, such Lender shall have no obligation to take or omit to take any action that such Lender in its good faith judgment believes would be disadvantageous to it. Each amount required to be paid to any Lender pursuant to
this Section 3.04 shall be accompanied by a certificate of the requisite Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount owed, the basis therefor and the calculations in respect thereto. 
 (e)        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 the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred
more than 90 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if
the introduction of Law or change in (or change in interpretation of ) Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof. 
 3.05      Funding Losses. 
 Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time (which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate
of such demanding Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount demanded, the bases therefor and the calculations in respect thereto), the Borrower to whom the subject Loan was made shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such
Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 
 (a)        any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan made to such Borrower other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan
(whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 
 (b)        any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan made to the Borrower other than a Base Rate
Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or 
  

 38 

 (c)        any assignment of a Fixed Period
Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.16; 
 including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which
such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. 
 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate
for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable offshore Dollar interbank market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Fixed Period Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 

3.06      Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation. 
 (a)        A certificate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under
this Article III and setting forth in reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and such other information as otherwise specified in this Article III shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error. In determining such amount, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods customarily used by it in comparable circumstances. 
 (b)        Upon any Lender’s making a claim for compensation under Section 3.01
or 3.04, the Borrower may remove or replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.16. 
 3.07      Survival. 
 All of the Borrower’s obligations under this
Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all the other Obligations. 
 ARTICLE IV.

possibility of a determination adverse to such Person and which, if determined adversely, could have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.07      No Default. 
 Neither the Borrower nor any Material Subsidiary is in

 The properties of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are insured with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, in such
amounts, with such deductibles and covering such risks as are customarily carried by companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in localities where the Borrower or its Subsidiaries operate.

appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP. The Borrower has no actual knowledge of any overtly proposed tax assessment against it or any of its Subsidiaries or Unrestricted Subsidiaries that
would, if made, have a Material Adverse Effect.

applicable Laws, as required by contractual restrictions not entered into in contemplation of this Section 6.02(c), as permitted by recognized principles of privilege or as otherwise determined in good faith by the Borrower, and
(ii) provided that documents required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6.02(c) shall be deemed delivered on the date that such documents are publicly available on the United States Securities and Exchange

 (e)        promptly, such additional information
regarding the business, financial or partnership affairs of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Unrestricted Subsidiary as the Administrative Agent, at the request of any Lender, may from time to time reasonably request. 
 Documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a), (b), (c) or (d) (to the extent
any such documents are included in materials otherwise filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date (i) on which the Borrower posts
such documents, or provides a link thereto, on the Borrower’s website on the Internet at the website address listed on Schedule 10.02, and, in either case, notifies the Administrative Agent by email of such posting or link; or
(ii) on which such documents are posted on the Borrower’s behalf on an Internet or intranet website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by
the Administrative Agent), whichever date shall first occur. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in every instance the Borrower shall be required to provide paper copies of the Compliance Certificates required by Section 6.02(b)
to the Administrative Agent. Except for such Compliance Certificates, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery or to maintain copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall have no responsibility

provided by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and
(b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public
Lender”). The Borrower hereby agrees that so long as the Borrower is the issuer of any outstanding debt or equity securities that are registered or issued pursuant to a private offering or is actively contemplating issuing any such
securities (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” on the first page thereof; (x) by so marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the
Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States
Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 10.08); (y) all such Borrower Materials so marked
“PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor;” and (z) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any such Borrower Materials that are not so marked
“PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor” and thus unavailable to a Public Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be under no obligation to mark
any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”

such Material Subsidiary in an amount that exceeds, after giving effect to applicable in-force insurance and related third-party indemnity and similar agreements, the Threshold Amount, or in which injunctive relief or similar relief is sought, which
relief, if granted, could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

relevant Subsidiary; (b) all material lawful claims which, if unpaid, would by law become a Lien upon its property; and (c) all Indebtedness, as and when due and payable, but subject to any subordination provisions contained in any
instrument or agreement evidencing such Indebtedness.

reasonable advance notice to the Borrower and subject to compliance with applicable safety standards, with contractual or attorney-client privilege (as applicable) and non-disclosure agreements; provided, however, that during an Event
of Default, the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective representatives or independent contractors) may, without duplication of the efforts of the others, do any of the foregoing at the reasonable expense of the Borrower at
any time during normal business hours.

regard to the presence or absence of cure period or similar process) than the covenants contained in Section 7.13 (“Financial Restrictions”), then 
 (i)        promptly, and in any event within 30 days, following the
creation, incurrence, assumption or permitting to exist such Indebtedness, the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders notice of any such Financial Restrictions and copies of all agreements governing such Indebtedness that
contain such Financial Restrictions (“Restrictive Agreements”), and 
 (ii)      effective as of the date of the creation, incurrence, assumption or permitting to exist such Indebtedness, such Financial Restrictions (including any associated cure and notice periods provided
therefore, and definitions and interpretive provisions from such Restrictive Agreements used in relation thereto), to the extent not inconsistent or in conflict with any express term hereof or any other Loan Document without regard to any such
Financial Restriction, shall be deemed to have been incorporated herein by reference automatically without further action or notice on the part of any Person and shall be deemed a part of this Agreement for all purposes, including that Schedule 2 to

   (v)       Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or to any other Non-OLP
Subsidiary (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, an Unrestricted Subsidiary); 
 provided that no governing agreement with respect
to any Indebtedness otherwise permitted by this Section 7.03(b) shall contain Intercompany Restrictions. 
 (c)        The Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries may create, incur, assume or permit to exist, for so long as the Operating Partnership is regulated by the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission or any other governmental utility regulatory body, the following Indebtedness: 
   (i)        Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries on the Closing Date and described in Schedule 7.03;

 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 7.03, if an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one
of the categories of Indebtedness permitted above, the Borrower will, it its discretion, classify (or later classify) in whole or in part such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies with this Section 7.03, and such item of
Indebtedness or a portion thereof may be classified (or later upon written notice to the Administrative Agent reclassified) in whole or in part as having been incurred under more than one of the applicable clauses above. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Subsidiary or Unrestricted Subsidiary shall enter into a guaranty of any obligations
of the Borrower under the Syndicated Credit Agreement or the Parent Credit Agreement unless such Subsidiary or Unrestricted Subsidiary, as applicable, shall also provide a guaranty of the Obligations in form and substance substantially similar to
such guaranty. 
 7.04        Mergers; Sale of Assets. 
 Merge into or consolidate with any other Person, or permit any other Person to merge into or consolidate with it, or sell, transfer,

each case, whether now owned or hereafter acquired), unless: (i) at the time thereof and immediately after giving effect thereto no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (ii) if the Borrower is involved in
any such transaction, it is the surviving or resultant entity or the recipient of any such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets, and if a Subsidiary is involved in any such transaction, such Subsidiary is the surviving or resultant
entity or the recipient of any such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets; provided, however, that in no event shall any such merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, lease or other disposition whether or not otherwise permitted
by this Section 7.04 have the effect of releasing the Borrower from any of its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement. 
 7.05        Intentionally Blank. 
 7.06        Intentionally Blank. 
 7.07        Distributions.

would become an Event of Default under clause (a), (f), or (g) of Section 8.01 or a Default under Section 8.01(b) or 8.01(c) as a result of a breach of Section 7.13 or an Event of Default, the Borrower
will not declare, pay or make any Distribution (in cash, property or obligations) on any interests (now or hereafter outstanding) in the Borrower or apply any of its funds, property or assets to the purchase of any partnership 

  

 57 

 
interests in the Borrower; provided that if the Borrower has declared a Distribution when no Default which would become an Event of Default under
clause (a), (f), or (g) of Section 8.01 or a Default under Section 8.01(b) or 8.01(c) as a result of a breach of Section 7.13 or Event of Default exists, it shall be permitted to pay that Distribution
even if such Default or Event of Default exists on the corresponding payment date unless on such payment date and prior to the making of such Distribution, the Borrower has knowledge that the maturity of all outstanding Obligations has been
accelerated pursuant to Section 8.02.

7.10        Transactions with Affiliates. 
 Enter into any material transaction with any Affiliate of Borrower except upon fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable than
those which might be obtained in arm’s-length transactions with a Person that is not an Affiliate; provided, that such limitations shall not apply to any transaction among the Borrower, the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, the General
Partner, the General Partner’s Subsidiaries, and the Delegate (in its capacity as such) or to subordinated loans (including Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness) from an Affiliate to the Borrower; provided, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Borrower shall not purchase or prepay any Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness unless after giving effect to such purchase or payment, the Borrower is in compliance with Section 7.13 and such purchase or payment will not
result in a Default or an Event of Default. For purposes of clarification of the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that the limitations contained in this Section 7.10 shall not limit the Delegate’s authority to act or take actions
on behalf of the General Partner. 
 7.11        Burdensome Agreements.

 Enter into any material Contractual Obligation that by its express terms prohibits the Borrower or any Subsidiary or
Unrestricted Subsidiary to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist Liens on any material property of such Person to secure the Obligations (other than the Syndicated Credit Agreement); or enter into any agreement (other than agreements of the type
permitted by Section 7.03(a)(i)(B)(c)) restricting the ability of any Subsidiary to make any payments, directly or indirectly, to the Borrower or a Material Subsidiary by way of distributions, loans, advances, repayments of loans or
advances, reimbursements of management and other intercompany charges, expenses and accruals or other returns on investments, or any other agreement or arrangement which restricts the ability of any Subsidiary to make any payment, directly or
indirectly to the Borrower or a Material Subsidiary.

ultimately, to purchase or carry margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board) or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock or to refund indebtedness originally incurred for such purpose,
(ii) to repay outstanding loans or other amounts owing under the Syndicated Credit Agreement or (iii) to repay outstanding loans or other amounts owing under the Parent Credit Agreement or under any other document, instrument or other
agreement evidencing Indebtedness owing to Enbridge Inc. or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof; provided, that proceeds from Loans made on the effective date of any increase of the Aggregate Commitments pursuant to Section 2.16
or within three Business Days following any such effective date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent shall agree), in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount of such increase, may be applied to repay outstanding loans owing under the
Parent Credit Agreement solely to the extent that, after giving effect to such Loans and such repayment, the Aggregate Commitment Utilization Percentage does not exceed the Parent Commitment Utilization Percentage (after giving effect to the
reduction of the Parent Commitment occurring pursuant to Section 2.16 in connection with such increase of the Aggregate Commitments). 
 7.13        Consolidated Leverage Ratio. 
 As
of the end of each applicable four-quarter period, the Borrower shall maintain a ratio of (a) (i) Consolidated Funded Debt plus, without duplication, (ii) the principal amount of Funded Debt owed by the Borrower to Subsidiaries
which does not constitute Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness to (b) Pro Forma EBITDA of no greater than (1) during an Acquisition Period 5.50 to 1.00, and (2) during any period other than an Acquisition Period as follows:
(A) for periods ending on or before March 31, 2009, 5.50 to 1.00, (B) for periods ending June 30, 2009 and thereafter through March 31, 2010, 5.25 to 1.00, and (C) for periods ending June 30, 2010 and thereafter,
5.00 to 1.00; provided, that if at the end of any such applicable four-quarter period the Borrower shall not have maintained such ratio, the Borrower will have a period of 30 days following the later of the date a Responsible Officer of the
Borrower has knowledge that such ratio has not been satisfied at the end of such period and 30 days following the end of such period, to cure such failure on a pro forma basis by satisfying the following clauses (i) or (ii), or any
combination of such clauses, by (i) obtaining an equity contribution which qualifies as equity under GAAP or (ii) incurring Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness in a sufficient amount that had the Borrower had such additional equity or
Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness proceeds, or a combination of both, at or prior to the end date of such applicable four-quarter period, the Borrower would have been in compliance with this Section 7.13 for such four-quarter period
and, if the Borrower obtains such equity or such Qualifying Subordinated Indebtedness proceeds, or any combination thereof, during such cure period, but in no event shall such period end later than 60 days following the end of the corresponding
ending four-quarter period, then it will be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 7.13 as of the end of such four quarter period. 
  

 59 

 7.14        Intentionally Blank.

 7.15        Indebtedness of Non-OLP Subsidiaries. 
 As of the end of each fiscal quarter, the aggregate amount of Indebtedness of the Non-OLP Subsidiaries (other than Non-OLP Inter-Company
Indebtedness) shall not exceed an amount (the “Non-OLP Indebtedness Limitation”) equal to .5 times Non-OLP Pro Forma EBITDA for the four quarters then ended; provided, that to the extent that such Indebtedness of the
Non-OLP Subsidiaries does exceed the Non-OLP Indebtedness Limitation (the amount of such excess being referred to this Section 7.15 as “excess Indebtedness”) at quarter-end, the Non-OLP Subsidiaries may cure such excess
Indebtedness by satisfying the following clause (i) or clause (ii), or any combination of such clauses, within 30 days following the later of the date a Responsible Officer has knowledge of such non-compliance and 30 days following the end of
such quarter (but in no event shall the cure period extend beyond the date that is 60 days after the end of such quarter) (i) by receiving an infusion of cash or cash equivalents in an amount that (when added to all other cash and cash
equivalents then being held by Non-OLP Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 7.15) equals such excess Indebtedness (or portion thereof cured pursuant to this clause (i)), which cash or cash equivalents shall be held by Non-OLP
Subsidiaries until the calculation is done pursuant to this Section 7.15 at the end of the next quarter, or (ii) by reducing the aggregate outstanding amount of Indebtedness of the Non-OLP Subsidiaries by an amount equal to such
excess Indebtedness less the amount of cash or cash equivalents infused for such quarter-end pursuant to the preceding clause (i), if any. If the Non-OLP Subsidiaries so timely cure such excess Indebtedness by making such infusion or reduction, or
both as applicable, the Non-OLP Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 7.15 as of such quarter-end date. 
 7.16        Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries. 
 As of the end of each fiscal quarter, the aggregate amount of Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries (other than OLP Inter-Company Indebtedness)
shall not exceed an amount (the “OLP Indebtedness Limitation”) equal to 60% of the outstanding consolidated capitalization (calculated without regard to noncash adjustments to equity) of the Operating Partnership and the
Operating Partnership Subsidiaries as of such quarter-end date; provided, that to the extent that outstanding Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries (other than OLP Inter-Company Indebtedness)
does exceed the OLP Indebtedness Limitation (the amount of such excess being referred to this Section 7.16 as “excess Indebtedness”) at quarter-end, the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership
Subsidiaries may cure such excess Indebtedness by satisfying the following clause (i) or clause (ii), or any combination of such clauses, within 30 days following the later of the date a Responsible Officer has knowledge of such non-compliance
and 30 days following the end of such quarter (but in no event shall the cure period extend beyond the date that is 60 days after the end of such quarter): (i) by receiving an infusion of cash or cash equivalents in an amount that (when added
to all other cash and cash equivalents then being held by the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 7.16) equals such excess Indebtedness (or portion thereof cured pursuant to this
clause (i)), which cash or cash equivalents shall be held by the Operating 

  

 60 

 
Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries until the calculation is done pursuant to this Section 7.16 at the end of the next
quarter, or (ii) by reducing the aggregate outstanding amount of Indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries by an amount equal to such excess Indebtedness less the amount of cash or cash equivalents
infused for such quarter-end pursuant to the preceding proviso, if any. If the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries so timely cure such excess Indebtedness by making such infusion or reduction, or both as applicable, the
Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Section 7.16 as of such quarter-end date. 
 7.17        Swap Contracts. 
 Enter into or permit to exist any obligations under any Swap Contracts for purposes of speculation. 
 7.18        Parent Credit Agreement.

basis concurrently with such repayment, (b) reduce the Parent Commitment (other than as required pursuant to Section 2.16) unless the Borrower shall permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments on a pro rata basis concurrently with
such reduction or (c) amend, supplement or otherwise modify the Parent Credit Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, it being agreed that it shall be
reasonable to withhold such consent in the case of any amendment that shortens maturity or is otherwise adverse to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent in any manner). 
 ARTICLE VIII.

available amounts and including amounts owing to all creditors under any combined or syndicated credit arrangement) of more than the Threshold Amount, or (B) fails to observe or perform any other agreement or condition relating to any such
Indebtedness or contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto, or any other event occurs, for a period beyond the applicable grace, cure, extension, forbearance or other similar period the effect of which default
or other event is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Indebtedness (or the beneficiary or beneficiaries of any applicable Guarantee Obligation (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders or beneficiary or
beneficiaries) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, such Indebtedness to be demanded or to become due or to be repurchased or redeemed (automatically or otherwise) prior to its stated maturity, or such Guarantee Obligation to become
payable or cash collateral in respect thereof to be demanded; or (ii) there occurs under any Swap Contract an Early Termination Date (as defined in such Swap Contract) resulting from (A) any event of default under such Swap Contract as to
which the Borrower or any Subsidiary other than, for the avoidance of doubt, an Unrestricted Subsidiary is the Defaulting Party (as defined in such Swap Contract) or (B) any Termination Event (as so defined) under such Swap Contract as to which
the Borrower or any Subsidiary other than, for the avoidance of doubt, an Unrestricted Subsidiary is an Affected Party (as so defined) and, in either event, the Swap Termination Value owed by the Borrower or such Subsidiary other than, for the
avoidance of doubt, an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a result thereof is greater than the Threshold Amount; or

Debts.  The Borrower or any Material Subsidiary becomes unable or admits in writing its inability or fails generally to pay its debts as they become due as provided in Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; or 
 (h)        Judgments.  There is entered against the Borrower or any Material
Subsidiary (i) a final judgment or order for the payment of money in an aggregate amount exceeding the Threshold Amount (to the extent not covered by independent third-party insurance as to which the insurer does not dispute coverage and
third-party indemnity or similar agreements), and either the Borrower or such Material Subsidiary fails (A) to have discharged, within 60 days after its commencement, any related attachment, sequestration or similar proceeding against its
material assets or (B) to pay any money judgment against it within 10 days before the date on which any of its assets may be lawfully sold to satisfy that judgment; or 
 (i)         ERISA.    (i)  An ERISA Event occurs with respect to a Pension Plan or Multiemployer Plan which has

Lenders or satisfaction in full of all the Obligations, ceases to be in full force and effect, or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be null and void, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; or the Borrower denies that it has any
or further liability or obligation under any Loan Document, or purports to revoke, terminate or rescind any Loan Document; or 
 (k)        Change of Control.  There occurs any Change of Control.

and is then continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders, 
 (a)        declare the commitment of each Lender to make Loans to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated; 
 (b)        declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and
unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
Borrower; and 
  

 63 

 (c)        exercise on behalf of itself and the
Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable law;

 ARTICLE IX. 
 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

 9.01     Appointment and Authority 
 Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Barclays to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article, other than the provisions of Section 9.06 which provide for the consent of the Borrower, are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the
Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 
 9.02     Rights as a 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 the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise
expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial
advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account
therefor to the Lenders. 
 9.03     Exculpatory Provisions. 
 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, the Administrative Agent: 
 (a)        shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (b)        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 as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of
the Lenders as shall be 

  

 64 

 
expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that,
in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and 
 (c)        shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, 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 Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the 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 (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders
(or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in
the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the
Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender. 
 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 or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of
items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 9.04     Reliance by
Administrative Agent. 
 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 intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or
otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying
thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender
unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and
other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
  

 65 

 9.05     Delegation of Duties. 
 The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan
Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related
Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent, the Lead Arranger and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities
in connection with the syndication of the credit facility provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 
 9.06     Resignation of Administrative Agent. 
 The Administrative Agent may
at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States,
or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, subject to the consent of the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no such
successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf
of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment,
then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in
the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor
Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations 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. 
 Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any
other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis 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 or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own 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.

 (a)        to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and
unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10,
10.04 and 10.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10, 10.04 and 10.05.

 67 

 
arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the
claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

Documents and Signatures.    Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as
manually-signed originals and shall be binding on the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof;
provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

by Lenders. 
     (i)        Each Lender
severally agrees to indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent and each Related Party (each such Person being called an “Agent/ Issuer-Related Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and

Liabilities”); provided however that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to an Agent/Issuer-Related Indemnitee of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from any such Person’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct; and provided, further, that no action taken by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section.

     (ii)      Without limitation of the foregoing, to
the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 10.04 or subsection (a) of this Section 10.05 to be paid by it to an Agent, Issuer-Related Indemnitee, each Lender
severally agrees to pay to such Agent, Issuer-Related Indemnitee such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the

the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

 To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the
proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its
discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be

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.    Any Lender may at any time
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); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to
the following conditions: 
     (i)        Minimum
Amounts. 
   (A)        in the case of an assignment
of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to an Eligible Assignee that is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount
need be assigned; and 
   (B)        in any case not
described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of
the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and
Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed). 
     (ii)      Proportionate
Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned. 
     (iii)     Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any
assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition: 
   (A)        the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the
time of such assignment, (2) prior to the Revolving Termination Date, such assignment is to (w) a Lender, (x) a Syndicated Lender, (y) an Affiliate of a Lender or a Syndicated Lender that is financially capable of performing the
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement or (z) an Approved Fund that is financially capable of performing the obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and that agrees with the assignor to be bound by the Assignee Conditions, or
(3) after the Revolving Termination Date, such assignment is to (w) a Lender, (x) a Syndicated Lender, (y) an Affiliate of a Lender or a Syndicated Lender or (z) an Approved Fund; and 
  

 75 

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

 The Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility to ensure compliance with, or to inquire as to whether an
assignee is in compliance with, the requirement set forth in Section 10.07(b)(iii)(A) as to financial capacity or the requirement set forth in Section 10.07(b)(iii)(A) that the assignee agree to be bound by the Assignee
Conditions, and responsibility for compliance with such requirements shall be the responsibility of the assigning Lender. 
    (iv)    Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a
processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500, which amount shall not be for the account of, or reimburseable from, directly or indirectly, the Borrower except as otherwise provided in Section 10.16; provided,
however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Administrative Questionnaire. 
    (v)     No Assignment to
Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances
occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver new or replacement Notes to the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender, and if the assigning Lender holds a Note, it
shall, contemporaneous with the Borrower’s delivery of a new or replacement Note, deliver such Note to the Borrower, marked “Cancelled”. Any assignment or transfer (other than any assignment as security to a Federal Reserve Bank) by a
Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection
(d) of this Section. 
  

 76 

 (c)        Register.    The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office 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 of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to
time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a
Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 (d)        Participations.    Any Lender may, without
the consent of, or prior notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to
the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in
clause (b) or (c) of Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04
and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.14 as though it were a Lender. 
 (e)        Limitations upon Participant Rights.    A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 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 3.01 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 10.15 as though it were a Lender. 
 (f)         Certain Pledges.    Any Lender may at any time assign, pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
(including under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or
assignee for such Lender as a party hereto; and provided, further, all costs, fees and expenses related to, or in connection with, any such pledge or grant shall be for the sole account of such Lender. 
  

 77 

 (g)        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. 

10.08   Confidentiality. 
 Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates or its other Related Parties, and each of its and their directors, officers, agents, attorneys,
employees and representatives) agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ and other Related Parties’, directors, officers,
employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to (and will agree to)
keep such Information confidential on the terms provided in this Section); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process
(and each such case, such Person shall endeavor to notify the Borrower of such occurrence as soon as reasonably possible following the service of any such process on such Person); (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection
with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section,
to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective
counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of the Borrower, in each case, provided that each such Person first
agrees to hold, and cause to be held, such Information in confidence on the terms provided in this Section; (g) with the consent of the Borrower; (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result
of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; or (i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other
similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s or its Affiliates’ investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or its Affiliates.
For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, 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; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of delivery as
confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the
confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
  

 78 

 Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the
Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle
such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws. 
 10.09   Set-off. 
 In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by
law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrower 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 by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower
against any and all Obligations then due and owing to such Lender. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the
failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
 10.10   Interest Rate Limitation. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum amount, or be computed at a rate that exceeds the maximum rate, of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the
“Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall contract for, charge, receive, reserve or take interest in an amount or at a rate that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the
principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower, and in no event shall the Borrower or any other Person ever be liable for unearned interest or ever be required to pay interest in excess of the Maximum Rate.
In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, received, reserved or taken by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment
that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest
throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations. If the Laws of the State of Texas are applicable for purposes of determining the “Maximum Rate”, then that term means the “indicated rate ceiling” from time to time in effect
under Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code. The Borrower agrees that Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code does not apply to any Borrowing. 
 10.11   Counterparts. 
 This Agreement may be executed in one
or more counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
  

 79 

 10.12   Integration. 
 This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject
matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement
shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted
with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 
 10.13   Survival of Representations and Warranties. 
 All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto
or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation
made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of any Credit Extension. 
 10.14   Severability. 
 Any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 10.15   Foreign Lenders. 
 Each Lender that is a “foreign corporation, partnership or trust” within the meaning of the Code (a “Foreign
Lender”) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, prior to becoming a Lender herein, two duly signed completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Person and entitling it to an exemption from,
or reduction of, withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Person by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Person by the Borrower pursuant to this
Agreement) or such other evidence satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Person is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. withholding tax. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Person shall
(a) promptly submit to the Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then
be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect
of all payments to be made to such Person by the Borrower pursuant 

  

 80 

 
to this Agreement, (b) promptly notify the Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction,
and (c) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable
Laws that the Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Person. If such Person fails to deliver the above forms or other documentation, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to
such Person an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, without reduction. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold any tax or other
amount from payments made in respect of such Person, such Person shall indemnify the Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section,
and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of the Administrative Agent. The obligation of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent. 

10.16   Removal and Replacement of Lenders. 
 (a)        If (1) (A) such Lender or the Person that controls such Lender has become
insolvent or has become the subject of a bankruptcy, receivership or insolvency proceeding, and (B) such Lender has failed to fund any portion of its Committed Loans within one Business Day following the date required to be funded by it
hereunder, unless cured; or (2) under any other circumstances set forth herein providing that the Borrower shall have the right to remove or replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement, the Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, (i) remove such Lender by terminating such Lender’s Commitment or (ii) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Commitment (without payment by such Lender of any assignment fee) pursuant to
Section 10.07(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees procured by the Borrower; provided, however, that if the Borrower elects to exercise such right with respect to any Lender pursuant to
Section 3.06(b), they shall be obligated to remove or replace, as the case may be, all Lenders that have made similar requests for compensation pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04. The Borrower shall (w) pay in full
the assignment fee specified in Section 10.07(b)(iv) unless otherwise paid by the replacement Lender, (x) pay in full all principal, interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Lender through the date of termination or assignment
(including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05), and (y) release such Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Any Lender being replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to
such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Credit Extensions. The Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule 2.01, which shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect changes in the identities of the Lenders
and adjustments of their respective Commitments and/or Pro Rata Shares resulting from any such removal or replacement. 
 (b)        In order to make all the Lenders’ interests in any outstanding Credit Extensions ratable in accordance with any revised Pro Rata Shares after giving effect to the removal or
replacement of a Lender, the Borrower shall pay or prepay, if necessary, on the effective date thereof, all outstanding Loans of all Lenders, together with any amounts due under Section 3.05. The Borrower may then request Loans from the
Lenders in accordance with their revised Pro Rata Shares. The Borrower may net any payments required hereunder against any funds being 

  

 81 

 
provided by any Lender or Eligible Assignee replacing a terminating Lender. The effect for purposes of this Agreement shall be the same as if separate
transfers of funds had been made with respect thereto. 
 (c)        This section
shall supersede any provision in Section 10.01 to the contrary. 
 10.17   Governing
Law. 
 (a)        THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE; PROVIDED THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.

 (b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS
OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN MANHATTAN OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF SUCH STATE, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN
RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM
NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO. THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER
WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY THE LAW OF SUCH STATE. 
 10.18   Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. 
 EACH PARTY TO THIS
AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM
WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM,
DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES
HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 
  

 82 

 10.19   No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. 

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other
modification hereof or of any other Loan Document or any syndication of the credit facility provided hereunder), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the
Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger, and each of their respective Affiliates, on the
other hand, (B) it has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) it is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of
the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger, and the Borrower each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by
the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for any other party hereto, any Affiliates of any other party hereto, or any other Person and (B) none of the Administrative Agent, the Lead
Arranger or the Borrower has any obligation to each other or to their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the
Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the
Lead Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and the Borrower hereby waive and release any claims that they
may have against each other with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that it
has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. 
 10.20   USA PATRIOT Act Notice. 
 Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as
hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26,
2001)) (the “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 or
the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act. 
 10.21   ENTIRE AGREEMENT. 
 THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT
THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 
  

 83 

 10.22   Markit Data. 
 (a)        Barclays, in any capacity, whether in an individual capacity or as Administrative
Agent or Lender or otherwise, shall receive data from Markit with respect to the Applicable Rate and agrees in such capacity to provide to Designated Users identified by each Lender (and, if Barclays is not the Administrative Agent, the
Administrative Agent) such data, including any accompanying written notice or supporting information from Markit (together, the “Markit Data”), via email, log-in or other means of communication at the discretion of Barclays.
Barclays shall have all of the rights, benefits and protections of the Administrative Agent provided for in Article IX when acting in such capacity with respect to the provision of any Markit Data. 
 (b)        For the avoidance of doubt, any Designated User shall only access and use the Markit
Data for the purposes as specified in this Agreement on behalf of the respective Lender or, if applicable, the Administrative Agent as shall be required by such Lender, and if applicable, the Administrative Agent, to comply with the terms of this
Section 10.22. Each Lender, and if applicable, the Administrative Agent, hereby agrees, without limiting Markit’s or Barclays’s other rights and remedies, that it is responsible for and liable for any breach of any of the
provisions of this Section 10.22 by its respective Designated Users. 
 (c)        Each Lender acknowledges that all copyright, database rights, trade marks, patents, rights of privacy or publicity and other proprietary or intellectual property rights (including all
models, software, data and any materials) comprised in all or any of the Markit Data, or their provision, and all enhancements, modifications or additional services thereto, are and will be the exclusive property of Markit. Except as provided for
under this Agreement, each Lender agrees that it will not use the same (including copying, reverse engineering or, except as otherwise required by law or regulation, disclosing it to any Person, for any purpose whatsoever) and will not remove or
deface any trademarks associated with the Markit Data. Each Lender acknowledges that the Markit Data was developed, compiled, prepared, revised, selected and arranged by Markit and others (including certain information sources (each a
“Data Provider”)) through the application of methods and standards of judgment developed and applied through the expenditure of substantial time, effort and money, and constitute valuable intellectual property and trade
secrets of Markit. Each Lender shall make reasonable efforts to comply, at Markit’s expense, with all reasonable written requests made by Barclays (upon Markit’s written requests to Barclays) to protect any contractual, statutory and
common law rights in the Markit Data. 
 (d)        Each Lender acknowledges that
none of Markit, Barclays, their respective Affiliates or any Data Provider makes any warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the Markit Data or as to the results to be attained by any Lender or others from the use of the
Markit Data. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that there are no express or implied warranties of title, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose or use, and that it has not relied upon any warranty, guaranty or representation made by
Markit, Barclays, their respective Affiliates or any Data Provider. 
 (e)        Neither Markit and its Affiliates nor any Data Provider nor Barclays and its Affiliates shall in any way be liable to any Lender or any client of any Lender for any inaccuracies, errors or
omissions, regardless of cause, in the Markit Data provided hereunder or 

  

 84 

 
for any damages (whether direct or indirect) resulting therefrom except, in each case, in the event of its own fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Without limiting the foregoing, Markit and Barclays shall have no liability whatsoever to any Lender or client of a Lender, whether in contract (including under an indemnity), in tort (including negligence), under a warranty, under statute or
otherwise, in respect of any loss or damage suffered by such Lender or client as a result of or in connection with any opinions, recommendations, forecasts, judgments, or any other conclusions, or any course of action determined, by such Lender or
any client of such Lender, based on the Markit Data. To the extent permitted by law, neither Markit nor Barclays nor their respective Affiliates shall be liable for any loss of profits or revenue or any indirect or consequential losses or damages
whatsoever incurred, whether or not it has been advised in advance of the possibility of any such loss. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.22 to the contrary, any waiver of liability on the part of Barclays and its Affiliates in
this Section 10.22 shall be limited to the extent and scope of any waiver of liability with respect to the Administrative Agent as set forth in Article IX hereunder. 
 (f)        Each Lender acknowledges that it or its employees may, in the course of performing
such Lender’s responsibilities under this Agreement, be exposed to or acquire information which is proprietary or confidential to Markit or to third parties to whom Markit owes a duty of confidentiality. Markit’s and such third
parties’ confidential information means the Markit Data and any related materials provided by Markit through Barclays to each Lender and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Each Lender agrees to hold Markit’s and such third
parties’ confidential information in confidence to the same extent and in the same manner as such Lender is required to hold the Borrower’s information confidential pursuant to Section 10.08 and agrees that it will follow
procedures which are intended to put any transferee of such confidential information on notice that such confidential information may not be used for any other purposes except as contemplated herein. It is understood and agreed that in the event of
a breach of confidentiality, damages may not be an adequate remedy and that Barclays shall be entitled to injunctive relief to restrain any such breach, threatened or actual. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent are entitled to disclose and use the Markit Data in the normal course of their business as it relates to this Agreement, including but not limited to disclosing such information to ratings agencies, regulatory agencies, league
table providers, prospective assignees and participants. 
 (g)        The Borrower
acknowledges that each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from time to time may conduct business with and may be a shareholder of Markit and that each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may have from time to time the right to
appoint one or more directors to the board of directors of Markit.
