the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Swing Line Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for Base Rate Loans prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date such request is

Rate Loans made on the same day such repayment is made). If the amount of such repayment is greater than the outstanding amount of such Swing Line Loans and Base Rate Loans at the time such repayment is made (other than any Base Rate Loans made on
the same day such repayment is made) and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit the excess to the Borrower.

(a) The Borrower may from time to time request that any Issuing Lender issue or amend a Credit by delivering to such
Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, if requested by such Issuing Lender and/or the Administrative Agent, an Application therefor, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and
other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may request, and a Credit Request. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of any Credit, such Credit Request shall be in the form attached hereto as Annex III, shall include a form

 (ix) the requested date of the proposed
amendment or extension;

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the applicable Issuing Lender shall issue, amend or extend such Credit on the first Business Day following
the Business Day on which such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent receive the corresponding Credit Request; provided, that with respect to any Credit Request received by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent
later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, such Credit Request shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next succeeding Business Day and the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension, as applicable, shall be adjusted
accordingly. Upon the effectiveness of any Credit or any amendment to an outstanding Credit, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to assume that the Applications and certificates, documents and other papers and information
requested by the applicable Issuing Lender in connection therewith were completed and delivered to the satisfaction of the Issuing Lender. 
 (b) The Borrower shall not request the issuance of, and no Issuing Lender shall issue, any Credit that has automatic extension provisions. 

(c) Upon receipt of a Credit Request by an Issuing Lender, such Issuing Lender shall confirm with the Administrative Agent

(d) If any Issuing Lender shall issue, extend or amend any Credit without obtaining prior consent of the Administrative
Agent (as provided in clause (c) above), such Credit (A) shall for all purposes be deemed to have been issued by such Issuing Lender solely for its own account and risk and (B) shall not be considered a Credit outstanding under
this Agreement (and therefore shall not be included when calculating the Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit), and no Lender shall be deemed to have any participation therein, effective as of the date of such issuance, amendment or extension,
as the case may be, unless the Required Lenders expressly consent thereto; provided, however, that to be considered a Credit outstanding under this Agreement, the consent of all Lenders shall be required if any such issuance, amendment
or extension is not then permitted hereunder by reason of the provisions of Section 3.1(a) or Section 3.1(b). 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuing Lenders are under no obligation to issue or provide any Credit unless consented to by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative
Agent if: 
 (i) Any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms

in connection therewith). 
 (c) Distribution of Fees. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following
its receipt thereof, distribute to the relevant Issuing Lenders and the LC Participants all fees and commissions received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this Section 3.4. 

3.5 LC Participations. 
 (a) Each Issuing Lender irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally agrees to grant and hereby grants to each LC Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each
LC Participant irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such LC Participant’s own account and risk,
an undivided participation interest in such Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under each Credit issued by such Issuing Lender hereunder and the amounts (including, without limitation, all Reducing LC Payments) paid by the Issuing Lender
thereunder or in connection therewith equal to such LC Participant’s Commitment Percentage. 
 (b) If the

standard practices in New York, New York, as determined by the applicable Issuing Lender. If any such amount required to be paid by any LC Participant pursuant to Section 3.5(b) is not in fact made available to the applicable Issuing
Lender by 

  
 38 

 
such LC Participant within two (2) Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s notice to the LC Participants under Section 3.5(b), the rate referred to in clause

conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 (d) Whenever, at any time after any Issuing Lender has made
payment under any Credit and has received from any LC Participant its Commitment Percentage of such payment in accordance with Section 3.5(b), such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Credit (whether directly from the
Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof for the period from and after the date on which the LC Participant made its payment under
Section 3.5(b), such Issuing Lender shall distribute to such LC Participant its Commitment Percentage thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to
be returned by such Issuing Lender, such LC Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it. 

(e) Each LC Participant’s obligation to acquire participations and make payments pursuant to this
Section 3.5 in respect of Credits is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, deduction, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such
Lender may have against any Issuing Lender, the Borrower, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (iii) any failure to satisfy any condition precedent to
extensions of credit set forth in Section 6.2, (iv) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, (v) any breach of this Agreement by the Borrower or any Lender, (vi) any amendment, renewal
or extension of any Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (vii) any reduction or termination of the Commitments or (viii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing. 
 3.6 Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower. 

(a) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Credit of any notice of a drawing or demand for payment under such Credit,
the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Such Issuing Lender shall also give the Administrative Agent prompt notice of receipt of a request for a Reducing LC Payment. If the Borrower
obtains written notice from any Issuing Lender of a drawing or demand for payment under a Credit on any Business Day, the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Lender for the Unreimbursed Amount of such Credit no later than 3:00 p.m. New York City
time on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day upon which such notice was received by the Borrower. The Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender no later than 3:00 p.m. New York City time on the day such Issuing Lender

amount equal to (i) the amount so paid by such Issuing Lender in connection with such drawing, payment or request for Reducing LC Payment and (ii) any taxes and any reasonable fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by such
Issuing Lender (each such amount that has not been reimbursed by the Borrower being, an “Unreimbursed Amount”). 
 (b) Interest shall be payable on any and all Unreimbursed Amounts from and including the date of payment by any Issuing Lender to the applicable beneficiary until payment by the Borrower in full at the
rate set forth in Section 4.3(c).

negotiation and/or payment of any Credit or any ruling of any court or governmental authority or agency, or any control or restriction rightfully or wrongfully exercised by any government or group asserting or exercising governmental or paramount
powers; 
 (vi) the acceptance by the applicable Issuing Lender as complying with the applicable Credit of any
draft or document drawn, issued or presented under such Credit which is issued or purportedly issued by an agent, executor, trustee in bankruptcy, receiver or other representative of the party identified in such Credit as the party permitted to
draw, issue or present such draft or document;

Credit, including arising in connection with any proceeding of the type described in Section 9.1(f) with respect to the beneficiary; and none of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the applicable Issuing
Lender’s rights or powers hereunder. If any Credit provides that payments are to be made by the applicable Issuing Lender’s Nominated Person, neither the applicable Issuing Lender nor such Nominated Person shall be responsible for the
failure of any of the documents specified in such Credit to come into the applicable Issuing Lender’s possession or for any delay in connection therewith, and the Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement shall not be affected by such
failure or delay in the receipt by the applicable Issuing Lender of any such documents. 
 (c) In addition to the
exculpatory provisions contained in the UCP, the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York (as in effect from time to time) and/or the ISP, as applicable, the applicable Issuing Lender and such Issuing Lender’s Nominated Persons shall

State of New York (as in effect from time to time), the UCP or the ISP, in each case as applicable. 
 (d) In
furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the provisions set forth in this Section 3.7, the Borrower agrees that: 
 (i) any action taken by the Issuing Lenders or by any Nominated Person or any inaction or omission by the Issuing Lenders or them under or in connection with any Credit or the relative drafts or
documents, if not taken or omitted with gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not put the applicable Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender’s Nominated Person under any resulting liability to the
Borrower; and 
 (ii) the applicable Issuing Lender shall not be excused from liability to the Borrower to the
extent, but only to the extent, of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, punitive, consequential or exemplary, damages or claims, which are hereby waived by the Borrower), suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proved were caused
by such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Credit comply with the terms thereof, provided, that (i) the applicable Issuing Lender may accept
documents that appear on their face to be in order and substantially comply with the terms of the Credit, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and without any responsibility to
make any inquiry as to the validity or accuracy thereof or any other inquiry, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Credit, (ii) the applicable
Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Credit and (iii) this sentence shall establish the
standard of care to be exercised by the applicable Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the Borrower hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law,
any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing). 
 3.8 Role of the Issuing Lenders.

 3.9 Successor Issuing Lenders. 

(a) Any Issuing Lender may resign as an Issuing Lender upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, provided, that any such resignation shall be subject to the condition that after giving effect thereto and the appointment of any successor pursuant to this Section 3.9, the
aggregate Issuance Caps shall not be less than the Total Commitment. If any Issuing Lender shall resign, then the Borrower may appoint from among the Lenders a successor issuer of Credits, whereupon, if such Lender shall accept such appointment (in
its sole discretion), such successor issuer shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the resigning Issuing Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the term “Issuing Lender” shall include such successor issuer
of Credits effective upon such appointment. At the time such resignation shall become effective the Borrower shall pay to the resigning Issuing Lender all accrued and unpaid fees payable by it pursuant to Section 3.4. The acceptance of
any appointment as an Issuing Lender hereunder in accordance with this Agreement, shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor issuer of Credits, in a form satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, from and
after the effective date of such agreement, such successor issuer of Credits shall become an “Issuing Lender” hereunder. After the resignation of any Issuing Lender hereunder, the resigning Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and
shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Credits issued by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Credits. In
connection with any resignation pursuant to this Section 3.9 (but only to the extent that a successor issuer of Credits shall have been appointed), either (i) the Borrower, the resigning Issuing Lender and the successor issuer of
Credits shall arrange to have any outstanding Credits issued or provided by the resigning Issuing Lender replaced with Credits issued or provided by the successor issuer of Credits or (ii) the Borrower shall cause the successor issuer of
Credits, if such successor issuer is satisfactory to the resigning Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion), to issue “back-stop” Letters of Credit naming the resigning Issuing Lender as beneficiary for each outstanding Credit issued by the
resigning Issuing Lender, which new Letters of Credit shall have a face amount equal to the Credits being back-stopped and the sole requirement for drawing on such new Credits shall be a drawing on the corresponding back-stopped Credits. After any
resigning Issuing Lender’s resignation as an Issuing Lender, the provisions of this Agreement relating to such Issuing Lender shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it (A) while it was an Issuing
Lender under this Agreement or (B) at any time with respect to Credits issued by it. 
 (b) To the extent
that there are, at the time of any resignation as set forth in Section 3.9(a) above, any outstanding Credits, nothing herein shall be deemed to impact or impair any rights and obligations of any of the parties hereto with respect to such
outstanding Credits (including, without limitation, any obligations related to the payment of fees or the reimbursement or funding of amounts drawn), except that the Borrower, the resigning Issuing Lender and the successor issuer of Credits shall
have the additional obligations regarding outstanding Credits described in Section 3.9(a) above. 
 3.10
Application. 
 To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Credit is inconsistent with the
provisions of this SECTION 3, the provisions of this SECTION 3 shall apply. 

  
 43 

 3.11 UCP; ISP. 

Each Letter of Credit (other than each Standby Letter of Credit), except as otherwise herein or therein expressly stated, is subject to
the UCP and to the extent not inconsistent therewith, shall also be subject to the Laws of the State of New York, as in effect from time to time. Each Standby Letter of Credit, except as otherwise herein or therein expressly stated, is subject to
ISP, and to the extent not inconsistent therewith, shall also be subject to the Laws of the State of New York, as in effect from time to time. 
 SECTION 4. GENERAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO LOANS AND CREDITS 
 4.1
Increase, Reduction and Termination of Commitments. 
 (a) Reduction or Termination of Commitments.
The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than five Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Commitments; provided, that no such termination
or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Commitment then in effect. Any such
reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and shall reduce permanently the Commitments then in effect. 

(b) Increases in Commitments. The Commitments may be increased, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent, the Swing Line Lender, the Issuing Lenders, the Increasing Lenders, and the Borrower, at any time and from time to time, prior to the Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount of up to $55,000,000 as follows: 

(i) Not more than thirty (30) and not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the proposed effective date of such
increase in Commitments, the Borrower may make a written request for such increase to the Administrative Agent, who shall forward a copy of any such request to each of the Lenders. Each request by the Borrower pursuant to the immediately preceding
sentence shall specify a proposed effective date of such increase (the “Requested Increase Effective Date”), the aggregate amount of such requested increase in Commitments, which shall not be less than $10,000,000 (the
“Increase Amount”), and shall constitute an invitation to each Lender to increase its Commitment by a ratable portion of such Increase Amount. 
 (ii) Each Lender, acting it its sole discretion and with no obligation to increase its Commitment pursuant to this Section 4.1(b), shall by written notice to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent advise the Borrower and the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to all or any portion of such increase in Commitment. Any such Lender may, in its sole discretion, accept all of such ratable increase, a portion
of such increase, or decline to accept any of such increase in Commitment. Promptly following the receipt of such acceptances or declinations, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the results of such request to the Lenders to so
increase the Commitments by the Increase Amount. 
 (iii) If the aggregate amount of the increases in Commitment
which the Lenders have accepted in accordance with clause(ii) of this Section 4.1(b) shall be less than the Increase Amount, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (subject to the approval of the Agents, the Swing Line Lender
and the Issuing Lenders) may offer to such additional Persons as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (“New Lenders”) the opportunity to make available such amount of new Commitments as may be required so that
the aggregate increases in Commitments by the 

  
 44 

 
existing Lenders and new Commitments by the New Lenders shall equal the Increase Amount. The effectiveness of all such increases in Commitments are subject to the satisfaction of the following
conditions: (A) each Lender that so elects to increase its Commitments (each an “Increasing Lender”), each New Lender, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender and the Borrower shall have executed
and delivered an agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit E (an “Increase and New Lender Agreement”); (B) any fees and other amounts (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 11.5) payable by
the Borrower in connection with such increase shall have been paid; (C) any other amounts then due hereunder shall have been paid and (D) delivery of a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower as to the matters set forth in
Section 6.2(b), Section 6.2(c), and Section 6.2(d). 
 (iv) Upon the
Requested Increase Effective Date, Schedule 1.0 of the Increase and New Lender Agreement, which shall reflect the Commitments and Commitment Percentages of the Lenders at such time, shall be deemed to supersede Schedule 1.0B hereto without
any further action or consent of any party (other than in respect of the Swing Line Commitment). The Administrative Agent shall cause a copy of such revised Schedule 1.0B to be available to the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders. 

4.2 Commitment Fee. 
 The Borrower agrees to pay the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee for the period from and including the first day of the Commitment Period to but not including the
Termination Date, computed at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount equal to the Commitment of such Lender minus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit (excluding the
aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans) during the period for which payment is made, payable monthly in arrears on the last Business Day of each month (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) and the
Termination Date, commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the date hereof. 
 4.3 Interest Rates and Payment
Dates. 
 (a) Each LIBO Rate Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect
thereto at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (b)
Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 

(c) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then during the continuance of such Event of Default
(i) the principal amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and (ii) any other amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents not paid when due shall bear interest (after as well as before judgment) at a rate
per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans plus two percent (2%). 
 (d) Interest on each Revolving Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest under Section 3.5(c) and Section 4.3(c) shall also be payable upon demand.

 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be
paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate,
the excess 

  
 45 

 
interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received
by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (i) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (ii) exclude voluntary
prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations. 

4.4 Conversion and Continuation Options. 
 (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to Convert LIBO Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Notice of Continuation/Conversion prior to 2:00 p.m., New York
City time, at its New York office, one (1) Business Day before the date of such Conversion, such notice specifying the amount and the date such Conversion is to be made, provided, that any such Conversion of LIBO Rate Loans may only be
made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to Convert Base Rate Loans (which are Revolving Loans) to LIBO Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Notice of
Continuation/Conversion prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, at its New York office, three (3) Business Days before the date of such Conversion. Any such notice of Conversion to LIBO Rate Loans shall specify the amount to be Converted, the
date of such Conversion and the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding LIBO Rate Loans
and Base Rate Loans may be Converted as provided herein, provided, that no Base Rate Loan may be Converted into a LIBO Rate Loan after the date that is two weeks prior to the Termination Date. 

(b) Any LIBO Rate Loans may be Continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect
thereto by the Borrower giving the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Notice of Continuation/Conversion prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, at its New York office, three (3) Business Days before the date that such LIBO Rate Loans are to be
Continued, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, specifying the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans. Upon receipt of any such notice,
the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. If the Borrower fails to give timely notice requesting a Continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made as, or Converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any 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 LIBO Rate Loans. 
 (c) During the existence of an Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, Converted to or Continued as LIBO Rate Loans. 
 4.5 Minimum Amounts of Tranches; Maximum Number of Tranches. 

(a) All borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder
shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans comprising each Tranche shall be equal to the minimum amounts required under Section 2.2.

 (b) No more than ten (10) Tranches of LIBO Rate Loans shall be outstanding at any one time. 

  
 46 

 4.6 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

(a) The Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lender the
then unpaid principal amount of each Loan, Reimbursement Obligation and other Obligations under the Loan Documents of the Borrower owing to such Lender on the Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Loans mature or Reimbursement
Obligations (or other Obligations) are payable in accordance with this Agreement). The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Reimbursement Obligations from time to time outstanding
from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 4.3. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to
time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 11.6(d), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded
(i) the Commitment of such Lender, (ii) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, any Note evidencing such Loan, the maturity date thereof and the Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, each Credit, the expiration date of each Credit
(which is a Letter of Credit), and the Type of such Loan or Credit, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) both the amount of any sum
received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d)
Pursuant to and subject to Section 11.6(d), the entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 4.6(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be prima facie evidence of
the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not
in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans and other Extensions of Credit made by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In accordance with Section 11.6(d),
absent manifest error, in the event of any discrepancy between the Register and the records of any Lender as to the existence and amounts of the Obligations, the Register shall control. 

(e) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower shall execute and
deliver to such Lender a promissory note evidencing the Loans of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit G, with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, a
“Note”). 
 4.7 Optional Prepayments. 

The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans made to it, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon
irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed prepayment date in the case of LIBO Rate Loans and at least one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed prepayment date in the
case of Base Rate Loans, which notice shall specify (x) the date and amount of prepayment, (y) which Loans shall be prepaid and (z) whether the prepayment is of LIBO Rate Loans, Base Rate Loans, or a combination
thereof, and, if of a combination thereof, the amount allocable to each; provided, that if a LIBO Rate Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing
pursuant to Section 4.15. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative 

  
 47 

 
Agent shall promptly notify each Lender (or in the case of prepayment of a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender) thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall
be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with any amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.15. Partial prepayments pursuant to this Section shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$100,000 in excess thereof. 
 4.8 Mandatory Prepayments. 

(a) Subject to Section 4.15, if at any time, the Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit exceed the lesser
of the Borrowing Base and the Total Commitment at such time then the Borrower shall, within two (2) Business Days after the occurrence thereof, prepay the Loans and/or Cash Collateralize Credits in an amount so that after giving effect to any
such action, the Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit do not exceed the lesser of the Borrowing Base and the Total Commitment at such time. 
 (b) Each prepayment of Loans under Section 4.8(a) shall be applied first to Swing Line Loans and second to Revolving Loans. 

4.9 Computation of Interest and Fees. 
 (a) Interest on LIBO Rate Loans and all fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. Interest on Base Rate Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a
365/366-day year, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of the LIBO Rate for any LIBO Rate Loans outstanding. Any
change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the
Borrower and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. 
 (b) Each
determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the
request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 4.3. 

4.10 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. 

(a) If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: 

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower)
that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the relevant LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, or 

(ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the relevant LIBO Rate determined
or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, then the
Administrative Agent shall give e-mail or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. 

  
 48 

 (b) If such notice is given pursuant to Section 4.10(a)(i) or
Section 4.10 (a)(ii) with respect to any Loans, (x) any such LIBO Rate Loan requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as a Base Rate Loan, (y) any Base Rate Loans that were to
have been Converted on the first day of such Interest Period to LIBO Rate Loans shall continue as Base Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding LIBO Rate Loans shall be Converted to Base Rate Loans on the last day of the applicable Interest
Period. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further LIBO Rate Loans shall be made or Continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to Convert Base Rate Loans to LIBO Rate Loans. 

(c) The Administrative Agent shall withdraw (i) any such notice pursuant to Section 4.10(a)(i) if the
Administrative Agent determines that the relevant circumstances have ceased to exist and (ii) any such notice pursuant to Section 4.10(a)(ii) upon receipt of notice from the Required Lenders that the relevant circumstances described
in Section 4.10(a) have ceased to exist. 
 4.11 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. 

(a) Each borrowing of Revolving Loans hereunder, each participation in Swing Line Loans, each participation in Credits,
each reduction of the Total Commitment and each payment of the fees under Section 3.4(a) and Section 4.2 shall be made pro rata according to the respective Commitment Percentages of the Lenders. Each payment (including each
prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans and Reimbursement Obligations shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans and Reimbursement
Obligations (or participations therein) then held by the Lenders, but principal payments shall be applied first to Reimbursement Obligations, second to Base Rate Loans, and third to LIBO Rate Loans.

 (b) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of
principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the
Administrative Agent’s office specified in Section 11.2, in United States Dollars in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as
received, and notify the Lenders of such distribution promptly thereafter. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on LIBO Rate Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a LIBO Rate Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day,
the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding
Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding sentence, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such
Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its Commitment Percentage of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative
Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor,
such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate or such higher overnight rate then in effect in accordance with banking industry rules
or standard practices in 

  
 49 

 
New York, New York on interbank compensation, as determined by the Administrative Agent for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent plus
any administrative, processing or similar fees charged in accordance with banking industry standard practices in New York, New York, as determined by the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with
respect to any amounts owing under this Section 4.11 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender
within three (3) Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount for its own account with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans, on demand, from the
Borrower. The failure by any Lender to make a payment required under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether on account of any Loan, Credit or otherwise, shall not affect the obligations of any other Lender under this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or be released from its obligations hereunder or thereunder as a result
thereof. 
 4.12 Illegality. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or
maintain LIBO Rate Loans or to issue or provide Credits as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the agreement of such Lender hereunder to make or maintain LIBO Rate Loans, or issue or provide Credits, Continue LIBO Rate Loans as such and,
Convert Base Rate Loans to LIBO Rate Loans, as applicable, shall forthwith be cancelled and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as LIBO Rate Loans, if any, shall be Converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last
days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by Law. 
 4.13
Requirements of Law. 
 (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof: 

(i) does or shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Note, any LIBO
Rate Loan made by it, any Credit issued, provided or participated in by it or any participation by it in any Swing Line Loan, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by
Section 4.14(a) and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender); 
 (ii)
does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or
any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBO Rate; or 
 (iii) does or shall impose on such Lender any other condition; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of
making, Converting into, Continuing or maintaining LIBO Rate Loans or issuing, providing and maintaining Credits or holding an interest in the applicable Issuing Lender’s obligations thereunder or of holding a participation interest in Swing
Line Loans, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly, after receiving notice and the applicable certificate as specified in Section 4.13(c), pay such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. 

  
 50 

 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change
in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or with any request or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Person’s capital
as a consequence of this Agreement, its obligations hereunder or under Credits to a level below that which such Lender or such Person would have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or
such Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly after receiving notice and the applicable certificate as specified in
Section 4.13(c), pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. In determining such amount or amounts, any Lender may use any method of averaging and attribution as it shall deem
applicable. 
 (c) If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this
Section 4.13, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate with supporting calculations as to any additional amounts payable
pursuant to this Section 4.13 submitted by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The agreements in this Section 4.13 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 (d) The Administrative Agent and each Lender or Transferee hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence of any circumstances entitling the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee to additional
amounts pursuant to this Section 4.13, the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions), at the sole expense of the Borrower,
to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or materially reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole judgment of the
Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee in any respect. 
 (e) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4.13 shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy issued subsequent to the date of this Agreement in
connection with the Dodd—Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking
Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority), or the United States financial regulatory authorities, adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented subsequent to the date of this Agreement 

4.14 Taxes. 
 (a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of the Borrower under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on
account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied,
collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or 

  
 51 

 
other Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”) or Other Taxes, unless otherwise required by any Requirement of Law, excluding (i) Taxes imposed on the overall net
income of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or Transferee) and franchise taxes in lieu thereof in each case imposed by the jurisdiction under the Laws of which it is organized or of its Applicable Lending Office (other than as a result of
entering into this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, performing any obligations hereunder or thereunder, receiving any payments hereunder or thereunder or enforcing any rights hereunder or thereunder) and (ii) any Taxes that are
attributable solely to the failure of any Lender to comply with Section 4.14(f), which failure shall be continuing for five (5) Business Days after notice from the Borrower to such Lender (all such nonexcluded Taxes and Other Taxes,
collectively or individually, “Non-Excluded Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Non-Excluded Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum
payable shall be increased by the amount (an “Additional Amount”) necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to Additional Amounts payable under this Section 4.14) such Lender
or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (iii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iv) the Borrower shall pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant Government Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b) In addition, the
Borrower agrees to pay in accordance with applicable law any current or future stamp, intangibles, recording, documentary, excise or property or similar taxes, charges or levies (including, without limitation, mortgage recording taxes and similar
fees) imposed by any Governmental Authority that arise from any payment made hereunder or under any other Loan Documents, or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents
(“Other Taxes”). 
 (c) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Lender, the Administrative
Agent and each Transferee for, and to hold each of them harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes in respect of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Loan or any Credit and all payments received by it in respect
of the foregoing, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.14, imposed on or paid by such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Transferee, and any liability
(including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. The indemnity by the Borrower provided for in this Section 4.14(c) shall apply and be made whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes or
Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted. Amounts payable by the Borrower under the indemnity set forth in this Section 4.14(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the
date on which the applicable Lender, the Administrative Agent, or the applicable Transferee, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared by a Lender, or the Administrative
Agent on its behalf and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount shall have been determined, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive, and binding for all purposes. 

(d) Each Lender, the Administrative Agent and each Transferee shall take all reasonable actions (consistent with its
internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) requested by the Borrower to assist the Borrower, at the sole expense of the Borrower, to recover from the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority any Taxes in respect of
which amounts were paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.14(a), Section 4.14(b), Section 4.14(c) with respect to amounts paid or payable to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Transferee. However,
neither any Lender, the Administrative Agent nor any Transferee shall be required to take any action that would be, in the sole judgment of such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Transferee, legally inadvisable, or commercially or otherwise
disadvantageous to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or such Transferee in any respect. 

  
 52 

 (e) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the
Borrower (or any Person making such payment on behalf of the Borrower) shall furnish to the applicable Lender or Transferee and the Administrative Agent a certified copy of the original official receipt evidencing payment thereof. 

(f) Each Lender that is not a “United States person”, as defined under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a
“Non-U.S. Lender”), shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of either (i) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility of the Non-U.S. Lender for benefits of an income
tax treaty to which the United States is a party or (ii) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, or in either case an applicable successor form. Each Lender (or Transferee) that is a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of
the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any subsequent or substitute versions thereof or successors thereto, certifying that such Lender (or Transferee) is entitled to a
complete exemption from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax on payments made pursuant to this Agreement. Such forms shall be delivered by each Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a participant, on or
before the date such participant becomes a participant hereunder) and on or before the date, if any, such Lender changes its Applicable Lending Office unless each of the Applicable Lending Office prior to such designation and the new Applicable
Lending Office are located within the United States. In addition, each Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Section 4.14(f), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 4.14(f) that such Lender is not legally able to deliver. 

(g) The Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to
Section 4.14(a), or to indemnify any Lender pursuant to Section 4.14(c), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes to the extent imposed as a result of (i) the failure of such Lender to deliver to the
Borrower the form or forms, as applicable to such Lender, pursuant to Section 4.14(c), (ii) such form or forms not establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or the information or certifications made therein
by the Lender being untrue or inaccurate on the date delivered in any material respect, or (iii) the Lender designating a successor Applicable Lending Office which has the effect of causing the Borrower to become obligated to make payments
under this Section 4.14 in excess of those in effect immediately prior to such designation; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay additional amounts to any such Lender
pursuant to Section 4.14(a), and to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to Section 4.14(c), if (i) any such failure to deliver a form or forms or the failure of such form or forms to establish a complete exemption from
U.S. federal withholding tax or such inaccuracy or untruth contained therein resulted from (A) a change in any applicable Law or any interpretation of any Law occurring after the Closing Date, which change rendered such Lender no longer legally
entitled to deliver such form or forms or otherwise ineligible for a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax, or rendered the information or certifications made in such form or forms untrue or inaccurate in a material respect or
(B) such Lender’s reasonable determination that it is otherwise legally inadvisable or commercially disadvantageous to so comply or (ii) the redesignation of the Lender’s Applicable Lending Office was made at the request of the
Borrower. 
 (h) The Administrative Agent and each Lender or Transferee hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence
of any circumstances entitling the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee to additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.14, the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with
its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions), at the sole expense of the Borrower, to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or materially reduce the amount of, any such
additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole judgment of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee in any respect.

  
 53 

 (i) The agreements in this Section 4.14 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the Commitments and the payment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 (j) Nothing contained in this Section 4.14 shall require any Lender (or any Transferee) or the Administrative Agent to make available any of its tax returns or any other information that it
deems to be confidential or proprietary. 
 4.15 Indemnity. 

The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any actual loss or expense (including, without
limitation, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender) which such Lender may sustain or incur resulting from (a) any failure by the Borrower in making a
borrowing of, Conversion into or Continuation of LIBO Rate Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) any failure by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the
Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or (c) the making of a payment or prepayment of LIBO Rate Loans (whether optional or mandatory, whether from proceeds of Collateral or otherwise) on a day
which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.15 submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be presumptively correct in the absence of manifest
error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 4.16 Lending Offices. 
 Loans of each Type made by any Lender shall be made
and maintained at such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for Loans of such Type. 
 4.17 Defaulting Lenders.

 (a) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole discretion, require such Defaulting Lender to deposit cash collateral with the Collateral Agent or, in the event such Defaulting Lender fails to do so, require the Borrower to deposit
Cash Collateral with the Collateral Agent in an aggregate amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s participations in any requested or outstanding Swing Line Loans, and each Defaulting Lender and the Borrower hereby grants a first priority
security interest in such Cash Collateral or cash collateral, as applicable, in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the sole benefit of the Swing Line Lender. In the event that such Defaulting Lender fails to deposit cash collateral as required
hereby and the Borrower is required to do so, the Borrower may, at any time thereafter, upon five (5) Business Days prior written notice to such Defaulting Lender, require that such Defaulting Lender terminate its Commitment and any obligations
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and transfer all of its Extensions of Credit and participations therein in accordance with Section 11.6 (subject to the prior written consent of such assignees, the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Lenders and the Swing Line Lender) to one or more of the existing Lenders or to one or more new Lenders, if such assignee Lenders can be found by the Borrower. 

  
 54 

 (b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event
that any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then each Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, require such Defaulting Lender to deposit cash collateral with the Collateral Agent or, in the event such Defaulting Lender fails to do so, require
the Borrower to deposit Cash Collateral with the Collateral Agent in an aggregate amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s participations in any requested or outstanding Credits, and each Defaulting Lender and the Borrower hereby grants a first
priority security interest in such Cash Collateral or cash collateral, as applicable, in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the sole benefit of the applicable Issuing Lender. In the event that such Defaulting Lender fails to deposit Cash Collateral
as required hereby and the Borrower is required to do so, the Borrower may, at any time thereafter, upon five (5) Business Days prior written notice to such Defaulting Lender, require that such Defaulting Lender terminate its Commitment and any
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and transfer all of its Extensions of Credit and participations therein in accordance with Section 11.6 (subject to the prior written consent of such assignees, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Swing Line Lender) to one or more of the existing Lenders or to one or more new Lenders, if such assignee Lenders can be found by the Borrower. 

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if at any time a Lender becomes a Defaulting
Lender, the following provisions shall apply so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (i) Fees pursuant
to Section 4.2 shall cease to accrue on such Defaulting Lender’s unused Commitment until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, at which time fees pursuant to Section 4.2 shall resume to accrue and be
payable in accordance with Section 4.2. 
 (ii) With respect to any LC Obligations, Swing Line Loans,
and participations in LC Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the Defaulting Lender (including, without limitation, any of them that exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or thereafter) (the “Defaulting Lender’s
Exposure”): 
 (A) such Defaulting Lender’s Exposure shall automatically be reallocated (without
further action of any party) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (calculated without regard to any Defaulting Lender’s Commitment Percentages) to the extent of each Non-Defaulting
Lender’s unused Commitment, provided, that in no event shall any Non-Defaulting Lender’s Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit following such reallocation exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment; 

(B) if the reallocation described in paragraph (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, then the
Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender (1) deliver to the Collateral Agent Cash Collateral for such Defaulting Lender’s LC Obligations
(after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to paragraph (A) above) as otherwise provided in this Agreement for so long as such LC Obligations are outstanding and (2) immediately repay each Swing Line Loan for so long as such

 SECTION 10. THE AGENTS 

10.1 Appointment. 
 Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender
irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated
to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities
shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. 
 10.2
Delegation of Duties. 
 The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
 10.3 Exculpatory Provisions. 

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates (each an
“Agent-Related Person”) shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Person’s
own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the validity, enforceability, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be granted to it or the Collateral Agent under the Loan
Documents or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the
agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books, or records of the Borrower. 
 10.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 
 The Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, e-mail, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or
conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent
accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation, or transfer thereof shall
have been filed with the Administrative Agent. 

  
 83 

 
The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or
concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or as otherwise required by Section 11.1 and it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by
it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of
the Required Lenders or as otherwise required by Section 11.1 and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans and all other
Obligations. 
 10.5 Notice of Default. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a
Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative
Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9.1 or as otherwise
reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking
such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. 

10.6 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. 

Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any audit, shall be deemed to constitute any
representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and made its own decision to
extend credit to the Borrower hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it
shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform
itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the
Administrative Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business,
operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty to monitor the Collateral used to calculate the Borrowing Base or the reporting
requirements or the contents of reports delivered by the Borrower. Each Lender assumes the responsibility of keeping itself informed at all times. 

  
 84 

 10.7 Indemnification. 

The Lenders agree to indemnify each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitment Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought, from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Loans and
Reimbursement Obligations and the cash collateralization of the LC Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this
Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under
or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to
the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 10.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all
amounts payable hereunder and the cash collateralization of the LC Obligations. 
 10.8 Administrative Agent in Its
Individual Capacity. 
 The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans and other extensions of credit to, accept
deposits from, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to the Loans and other
Extensions of Credit made by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms
“Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. 
 10.9
Successor Agent. 
 Any Agent may resign as Agent upon thirty (30) days notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If
an Agent shall resign as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor Agent for the Lenders, which successor Agent shall be approved by the Borrower (unless a
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, whereupon such successor Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent, and the term “Administrative
Agent” or “Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor Agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on
the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans or other Obligations. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is ten (10) days following a retiring Agent’s
notice of resignation, the retiring Agent may, in its sole discretion, either continue to act as Agent hereunder and under the Loan Documents or assign all of its rights and delegate all of its obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents to
the Lenders. After any retiring Agent’s resignation under the Loan Documents as Agent, or assignment and delegation pursuant to the preceding sentence, the provisions of this SECTION 10 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect
of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Agent and shall survive the payment of the Notes and other Obligations and termination of this Agreement. 

  
 85

 (b) The Lenders on behalf of themselves and their
respective Affiliates irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon payment in full of all Loans and all other

permitted hereunder; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by all of the Lenders or the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 11.1. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders shall confirm
in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.10(b), provided, that the absence of any such confirmation for whatever reason shall not affect the
Collateral Agent’s rights under this Section 10.10. 
 (c) The Collateral Agent may execute any
of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for
the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
 (d) The
Collateral Agent and the Issuing Lenders shall be entitled to all rights, indemnities, and limitations on liability under this SECTION 10 available to the Administrative Agent to the same extent as if each reference to the Administrative
Agent in this SECTION 10 were a reference to the Collateral Agent and the Issuing Lenders. 
 10.11 Other Agents;
Arrangers and Managers. 
 None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the cover page or signature pages of this
Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “lead arranger” or “sole book runner” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, in
the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender

be bound by the terms thereof.

other provision of any Loan Document which amendment or modification shall have the effect of modifying the pro rata treatment of payments to or disbursements by the Lenders thereunder, or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor (except such releases as are expressly permitted under this
Agreement) in each case without the written consent of all of the Lenders, or 
 (vi) amend, modify or waive any
provision of SECTION 10 or other provision which affects the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent without the written consent of the then Administrative Agent or the final sentence of Section 10.9 without the written
consent of any former Administrative Agent, or 

  
 87 

 (vii) without the written consent of each Issuing Lender, amend, modify or
waive (i) any provision of SECTION 3, Section 4.12, Section 4.13, Section 4.14, Section 4.17(b), Section 11.5, and Section 11.6(c), (ii) the definition of
“Cash Collateralize” or any defined term used in such definition ,or (iii) any other provision which affects the rights or duties of the Issuing Lenders; or 

(viii) without the written consent of the Swing Line Lender, amend, modify, or waive any provision of
Section 2.3, Section 4.13, Section 4.14, Section 4.17(a), Section 11.5, and Section 11.6(c) or any other provision which affects the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender.

 Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the
Borrower, the Lenders, the Agents, and all future holders of the Loans and other Obligations. In the case of any waiver, to the extent provided in such waiver, the Borrower, the Lenders and the Agents shall be restored to their former positions and
rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any
right consequent thereon; or 
 (ix) release, without the written consent of all the Lenders, any Collateral, if
the release of such Collateral would cause the aggregate outstanding Extensions of Credit to exceed the Borrowing Base. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall not have any right to approve or disapprove of any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder;
provided, however, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.17, (i) the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Defaulting Lender, (ii) the Commitment
Percentage of such Defaulting Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Defaulting Lender, and (iii) no payment to such Defaulting Lender shall be decreased or postponed without the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provision of this Section 11.1, (i) the Fee Letters may be amended,
modified or waived in a writing executed by only the parties thereto and (ii) Schedule 1.0A, Schedule 1.0C, Schedule 1.0D, Schedule 1.0E, Schedule l.0F, Schedule 1.0G, or Schedule 1.0H may be
amended or modified with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders, and the Borrower. The following procedure may be used, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, in connection with any and all amendments or
modifications requested by the Borrower to Schedule 1.0A, Schedule 1.0C, Schedule 1.0D, Schedule 1.0E, Schedule l.0F, Schedule 1.0G, or Schedule 1.0H: (x) the Borrower shall deliver a
written request to the Administrative Agent, which request shall be provided by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders through posting on Debtdomain or other web site in use to distribute information to the Lenders, or by other electronic mail, or
other notice procedure permitted under Section 11.2; and (y) the Required Lenders shall inform the Administrative Agent of such approval in writing (by electronic communication, telecopy or facsimile) within five
(5) Business Days after receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent; provided, that failure of a Lender to respond to any request for approval within the time period provided for hereby shall be deemed to be approval of such
requested amendment or modification by such Lender. 
 (d) If any Lender shall not have responded with its
approval or disapproval of any request hereunder with respect to modification or acceptance of any Approved Commodity Contract Counterparty, Approved Repurchase Contract Counterparty, or Counterparty Limit within five (5) Business Days after
the written request for such approval from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, then such Lender shall be deemed to have approved such request.

privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle it to any notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. The rights, remedies, powers, and privileges herein provided are cumulative
and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers, and privileges provided by Law. 
 11.4 Survival of Representations and
Warranties. 
 All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any document,

 11.5 Payment of Expenses and Taxes. 
 The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and each Agent for all its reasonable costs and
expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents or any restructuring or “work-out” related hereto and thereto, including,
without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) to each Lender and of counsel to the Administrative Agent following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or
an Event of Default, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and each Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other
taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any
waiver or consent (including the determination of whether or not any such waiver or consent is required) under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents 

  
 90 

 
and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Agents, and each of their respective officers, employees, directors, trustees,
agents, advisors, affiliates and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”), harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) and other professional and settlement costs of each Lender, each
Issuing Lender and Agent, with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any such other documents, the issuance or providing of each Credit, the making of each
Loan and the use by the Borrower of proceeds of each Loan and Credit, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Law applicable to the operations of the Borrower, any
of its Subsidiaries, or any of the properties of such Persons (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to
any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Indemnitee. The agreements in this Section 11.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 11.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. 

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Agents and their
respective successors and assigns, except that, other than as expressly provided for herein, the Borrower shall not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any
purported such assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent of each Lender shall be null and void). 
 (b) Any Lender may, in accordance with applicable Law, at any time sell to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Loan
or Reimbursement Obligation owing to such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (a “Participation”) without the consent of any party hereto,
provided, that the proposed Participant shall provide a tax form in accordance with Section 4.14(f) (if applicable) establishing (or otherwise establish to the Borrower’s satisfaction) a rate of U.S. withholding tax with
respect to all payments received or to be received by the proposed Participant under each of the Loan Documents as of the date of the proposed Participation not in excess of the rate of U.S. withholding tax imposed upon the selling Lender as of the
date of the proposed Participation. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender shall deliver the information provided for in the last sentence of Section 11.6(d), such
Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan,
Reimbursement Obligation, Commitment or other interest for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with
such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In no event shall any Participant under any such participation have any right to approve any amendment to or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document,
or any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that its consent or approval is required to be obtained by a Lender under the applicable participation agreement with such Participant for any such amendment, waiver or
consent that would reduce the principal of, or the stated rate or amount of interest on, the Loans, Reimbursement Obligation or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone the date of the final maturity of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, in each
case to the extent subject to such Participation. The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under 

  
 91 

 
this Agreement are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable Law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender
under this Agreement, provided, that in purchasing such participating interest, such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in Section 11.7(a) as fully as if it were a
Lender hereunder. The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of, and bound by the obligations imposed on the Lenders in, Sections 4.13, 4.14, and 4.15 with respect to its participation in
the Commitments and the Loans and other Extensions of Credit outstanding from time to time as if it were a Lender; provided, that in the case of Section 4.14, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said
Section. 
 (c) Any Lender may, in accordance with applicable Law, at any time and from time to time assign to
any Person, (x) in the case of such Person that is not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Borrower, and (y) in the case of such Person that is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender (such assignee, an
“Assignee”), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit F, appropriately completed (an
“Assignment and Acceptance”), executed by such Assignee, such assigning Lender, each Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender (and, in the case of an assignment to a Person that is not already a Lender, so long
as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower) and attaching the Assignee’s relevant tax forms, administrative details and wiring instructions, and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and
recording in the Register; provided, that the consent of the Borrower (if necessary) shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, further, that it shall be deemed reasonable for the Borrower to withhold,
condition, or delay such consent to an Assignment and Acceptance if the proposed Assignee does not provide a tax form in accordance with Section 4.14(f) establishing (or otherwise establish to the Borrower’s satisfaction) a rate of
U.S. withholding tax with respect to all payments received or to be received by the proposed Assignee under each of the Loan Documents as of the date of the proposed Assignment not in excess of the rate of U.S. withholding tax imposed upon the
assigning Lender as of the date of the proposed Assignment; provided, further, that (i) each such assignment to an Assignee (other than any Lender) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof (other than in the case of (a) an assignment of all of a Lender’s interests under this Agreement or (b) an assignment by a Lender to its Affiliate), unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and,
so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (such amount to be aggregated in respect of assignments by any Lender and the Affiliates thereof), and (ii) if applicable, each Assignee shall comply with
the provisions of Section 4.14(f) (and such Assignee shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.14 unless such Assignee complies with such Section 4.14(f), if applicable). Upon such execution, delivery,
acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have
the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment as set forth therein, and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this
Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Any assignment or
transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.6 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 Section 11.6(b). 

  
 92 

 (d) Pursuant to Section 4.6(c), the Administrative Agent, on
behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain at the address of the Administrative Agent referred to in Section 11.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a record of each Participation and a register (the
“Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders (including all Assignees, successors and Participants) and the Commitment of each Lender; the amount of each Loan made by it hereunder, any Note evidencing
such Loan, the maturity date thereof and the Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto and the Type thereof; such Lender’s participation in each Credit issued hereunder and the expiration thereof, and the Type of such Loan or Credit; the
amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to such Lender hereunder; and such Lender’s share of the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower. The
entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may (and, in the case of any Loan or other obligation hereunder not evidenced by a Note, shall) treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of
any Loan or other Obligation hereunder, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any
Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. If any Lender sells a Participation as described in Section 11.6(b), it shall provide to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Borrower, or maintain as
agent of the Borrower, the information described in this paragraph and permit the Borrower to review such information as reasonably needed for the Borrower to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or under any applicable Law or
governmental regulation or procedure. 
 (e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an
assigning Lender, the applicable Assignee, each Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender, and the Administrative Agent and, if required hereunder, the Borrower, together with payment to the Administrative Agent by the assigning Lender of a registration
and processing fee of $3,500, the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give
notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Borrower. 
 (f) The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose
to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates which has been delivered to such
Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming
a party to this Agreement, provided, that such Participant, Assignee or prospective Transferee shall have agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of Section 11.6. 

(g) For avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 11.6
concerning assignments of Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and other Extensions of Credit and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation,
(i) any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan, Note or Reimbursement Obligation to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable Law and (ii) any pledge or assignment by a Lender which is a fund to its trustee for the
benefit of such trustee and/or its investors to secure its obligations under any indenture or Governing Documents to which it is a party, provided, that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of
its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

  
 93 

 11.7 Adjustments; Set-off. 

(a) If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its
Revolving Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in
Section 9.1(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Revolving Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or interest thereon,
such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Revolving Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any
such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; except that with respect to any Lender that is a
Defaulting Lender by virtue of such Lender failing to fund its Commitment Percentage of any Revolving Loan, Swing Line Loan, LC Obligation, or participation therein, such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata share of the excess payment shall be
allocated to the Lender (or the Lenders, pro rata) that funded such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment Percentage; provided, however, that (i) if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from
such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned to the Benefited Lender, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest and (ii) the provisions of this Section 11.7(a)
shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 4.1 and Section 4.11 and the application of
funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in or other interest in any of its Loans and Reimbursement Obligations. The
Borrower agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Loan or Reimbursement Obligations may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if
such Lender were the direct holder of such portion. 
 (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders
provided by Law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower
hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other
credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of
the Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
set-off and application. 
 11.8 Counterparts. 
 This Agreement, the Loan Documents and all amendments thereof may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement or the Loan Documents, as applicable, on any number of separate counterparts
(including by email, facsimile, or pdf transmission of signature pages hereto or thereto), and all of said counterparts of each such instrument taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this
Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

  
 94 

 11.9 Severability. 

Any provision of this Agreement which 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 hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
jurisdiction. 
 11.10 Integration. 
 This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises,
undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. 

11.11 GOVERNING LAW.

 (ii) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such

same; 
 (iii) agrees that service of process on the Borrower in any such action or proceeding may be effected by
mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Borrower at its address set forth in Section 11.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent
shall have been notified pursuant thereto; 
 (iv) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect
service of process in any other manner permitted by Law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 
 (v) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by Law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section 11.12 any special, exemplary,
punitive, or consequential damages.

11.15 Patriot Act/OFAC. 
 Each of the Agents and the Lenders hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower,
which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow the Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Patriot Act. In addition, and without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower
shall (a) ensure, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to ensure, that neither the Borrower nor any Person who owns a controlling interest in or otherwise controls the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (directly or indirectly) is or shall be a
Person with whom any Agent or Lender is restricted from doing business under (i) regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury (“OFAC”) including, without limitation, any
person listed on the Specifically Designated Nationals and Blocked Person List maintained by OFAC (or any similar list maintained by OFAC, collectively, the “OFAC List”), or (ii) any similar regulations, statutes, laws, lists,

referred to as the “Regulations”); (b) not use or permit the issuance of Credits or use of the proceeds of any Loans or other Extensions of Credit in a manner that would violate any Regulations; and (c) not, directly or
indirectly, conduct any business with or engage in any transaction with any Person named on the OFAC List, any Person included in, owned by, controlled by, acting for or on behalf of, providing assistance, support, sponsorship, or services of any
kind to, or otherwise associated with, any Person named on the OFAC List, or any other Person with whom the Borrower is restricted from doing business under any Regulations. If the Borrower obtains any actual knowledge or receives any written notice
that the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any Subsidiary is named on the OFAC List (an “OFAC Event”), the Borrower shall (i) promptly give written notice to the Administrative Agent of such OFAC Event and (ii) comply
with all applicable laws with respect to such OFAC Event (regardless of whether the Person included on the OFAC List is located within the 

  
 96 

 
jurisdiction of the United States of America), including the Regulations, and the Borrower hereby authorizes and consents to the Agents and Lenders taking any and all steps the Agents and Lenders
deem necessary, in the Agents’ and Lenders’ sole discretion, to avoid violation of all applicable Laws with respect to any such OFAC Event, including the requirements of the Regulations (including the freezing and/or blocking of assets and
reporting such action to OFAC). 
 11.16 Confidentiality. 

(a) Subject to the terms of Section 11.6(f), each Lender shall keep confidential (and shall cause its
directors, officers, employees, representatives, agents or auditors (collectively, “Representatives”) to keep confidential), all information that such Lender receives from or on behalf of the Borrower, other than information that is
identified by the Borrower as being non-confidential information (all such information that is not so identified being “Confidential Information”). 

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.16 to the contrary, any Confidential Information may be
disclosed by any Lender (the affected Lender being, the “Disclosing Party”) (i) to its Affiliates and (ii) if the Disclosing Party is compelled by judicial process or is required by Law or regulation or is requested to do
so by any examiner or any other regulatory authority or recognized self-regulatory organization including, without limitation, the New York Stock Exchange, the Federal Reserve Board, the New York State Banking Department and the
Securities & Exchange Commission (any such Person being a “Regulatory Authority”), in each case having or asserting jurisdiction over the Disclosing Party, provided, that prior to any such disclosure compelled by
judicial process or pursuant to a formal investigation, the Disclosing Party, to the extent that it is permitted by applicable Law to do so, shall give the Borrower prompt written notice upon its receipt of any such judicial process or of the
existence of any such requirement of Law, regulation or request except in the case of examination by regulatory authority or self-regulatory organizations so that the Borrower may object to the assertion of jurisdiction by such Regulatory Authority
or seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, and the Disclosing Party shall, at the expense of the Borrower, use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower in seeking to object to the assertion of jurisdiction of such Regulatory
Authority or obtain such protective order or other appropriate remedy. 
 (c) The obligations of each Lender and
its Representatives under this Section 11.16 with respect to Confidential Information shall not apply to any Confidential Information which, as of the date of disclosure to such Lender or its Representatives, is in the public domain or
subsequently comes into the public domain other than as a result of a breach of the obligations of such Lender or its Representatives hereunder, or any information that was or becomes available to such Lender or its Representatives from a person or
source that is not, to the knowledge of such Lender or its Representatives after due inquiry, bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Borrower or otherwise prohibited from transferring such information to such Lender or its Representatives, or
any information which was or becomes available to such Lender or its Representatives without any obligation of confidentiality prior to its disclosure by or on behalf of such Person. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, any Lender may disclose to
its Affiliates, and all Persons may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. federal, State or local tax treatment of the Loans, Credits, other Extensions of Credit or any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or any other Loan Document (collectively, the “Transactions”), any fact that may be relevant to understanding the U.S. federal, State or local tax treatment of the Transactions and all materials of any kind (including
opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such U.S. federal, State or local tax treatment, other than the name of or identifying information with respect to any party identified herein or in any other Loan Document or any pricing terms (including
the Applicable Margin) or other nonpublic business or 

  
 97 

 
financial information (including Collateral value and financial covenants) that is unrelated to the U.S. federal, State or local tax treatment of the Transactions and is not relevant to
understanding the U.S. federal, State or local tax treatment of the transaction, without the prior consent of the Administrative Agent. 
 11.17 Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers. 
 (a) Each
Borrower is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations provided by the Agents and the Lenders under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and
indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations. 
 (b) Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect
to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 11.17), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and
several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them. 
 (c) If and to the extent
that any Borrower shall fail to make payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers will, without duplication,
make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligations. 
 (d) The Obligations of each Borrower under
the provisions of this Section 11.17 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each Borrower enforceable against each Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity,
regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other circumstances whatsoever. 
 (e) Except as otherwise
expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any advances made or credit issued under or pursuant to this Agreement, notice of the occurrence of any Event of
Default or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by any Agent or Lender under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and,
generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of,
any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by any
Agent or Lender at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by any Agent or Lender in
respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any
Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of any Agent or Lender with respect to the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its
respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this
Section 11.17 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this 

  
 98 

 
Section 11.17, it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of each Borrower under this
Section 11.17 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 11.17 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any
winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction, or similar proceeding with respect to Borrower, Agent, or Lender. 
 (f) Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against any other Borrower with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of
the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to any Agent or Lender with respect to any of the Obligations or otherwise, until such time as all of the Obligations have been paid in full in cash, each Letter of Credit has expired or terminated,
and the Commitments have terminated. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to any Agent or Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or Swap Contracts are hereby expressly made
subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy,
receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full in cash before
any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Borrower therefor. 
 (g) Each Borrower hereby agrees that the payment of any amounts due with respect to the Obligations owing by any Borrower to any other Borrower is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash
of the Obligations.

the liability of each Grantor, and the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties under this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected, limited, reduced, discharged or
terminated in any way, regardless of whether any reservation of rights against any Grantor is made, or any notice to, or further assent by, any Grantor is obtained, prior to or upon occurrence of any of the following: (A) the liability of any
other Person upon or for any part of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived,

connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented, restated or replaced, in whole or in part, as the Collateral Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time; (C) any Grantor
or any other Person liable for the 

  
 5 

 
Obligations may from time to time accept or enter into new or additional agreements, security documents, guarantees or other instruments in addition to, in exchange for or relative to, any Loan
Document, all or any part of the Obligations or any Collateral now or in the future serving as security for the Obligations; (D) any collateral security or right of offset at any time held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for

generally. 
 (b) Each Grantor hereby expressly waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any defense now or
in the future arising by reason of: (A) the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or right of offset with respect thereto at
any time or from time to time held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, (B) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Grantor
or any other Person liable for the Obligations against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, (C) the insolvency, bankruptcy arrangement, reorganization, adjustment, composition, liquidation, disability, dissolution or lack of power
of any Grantor or any other Person at any time liable for the payment of all or part of the Obligations or the failure of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to file or enforce a claim in bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to
any such Person; or any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of any Grantor, or any changes in the shareholders or equity interest holders of any Grantor; (D) the fact that any Collateral or Lien contemplated or intended to be
given, created or granted as security for the repayment of the Obligations shall not be properly perfected or created, or shall prove to be unenforceable or subordinate to any other Lien; (E) any failure of the Collateral Agent or any other
Secured Party to V assets in favor of any Grantor or any other Person, to exhaust any collateral for all or any part of the Obligations, to pursue or exhaust any right, remedy, power or privilege it may have against any Grantor or any other Person
or to take any action whatsoever to mitigate or reduce any Grantor’s liability under this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document; (F) any law which provides that the obligation of a surety or borrower must neither be larger in
amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety’s or borrower’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation; (G) the possibility that the Obligations or the Grantors’
Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the aggregate liability of the Grantors under this Security Agreement; or (H) any other circumstance or act whatsoever (other than a defense of payment or performance) (with or without
notice to or knowledge of any Grantor), which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge or defense of any Grantor for the Obligations or with respect to the collateral security provided by any Grantor herein,
or which might be available to a surety or borrower, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. 

  
 6 

 (c) Except as expressly provided otherwise in any Loan Document, each
Grantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by applicable Laws: (i) all notices to any Grantor, or to any other Person, including but not limited to, notices of the acceptance of this Security Agreement, the provision of collateral security

payment or performance of any of the Obligations owed to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party and enforcement of any right or remedy with respect thereto, or notice of any other matters relating thereto (the Obligations, and all dealings

a matter of law, be waived. 
 (d) When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies
hereunder against any Grantor, the Collateral Agent may, but shall be under no obligation to, join or make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue or exhaust such rights and remedies as it may have against any Grantor or any other Person or against
any collateral security for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Collateral Agent to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Grantor, or any
other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any Grantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Grantor of
any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against any Grantor. For the purposes hereof,
“demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect, or insure any Lien at any time held by it as
security for the Obligations or any property subject thereto. 
 5. SECURED PARTIES’ RIGHTS; LIMITATIONS ON SECURED
PARTIES’ OBLIGATIONS. 
 (a) Grantors Shall Remain Liable Under Contracts and Licenses. It is
expressly agreed by each Grantor that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of its contracts and each of its licenses to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed
and performed by it thereunder. The Secured Parties shall not have any obligation or liability under any contract or license by reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or the granting herein of a Lien thereon or the receipt by the
Secured Parties of any payment relating to any contract or license pursuant hereto. The Secured Parties shall not be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any contract or
license, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as 

  
 7 

 
to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any contract or license, or to present or file any claims, or to take any
action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times. 

(b) Grantors Shall Remain Liable Under Accounts, Chattel Paper, and Payment Intangibles. Anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Grantors shall remain liable under each of the Accounts, Chattel Paper and Payment Intangibles to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance
with the terms of any agreement giving rise to each such Account, Chattel Paper or Payment Intangible. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Account, Chattel Paper or Payment
Intangible (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Security Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any such other Secured Party of any payment relating to such Account, Chattel Paper or Payment
Intangible, pursuant hereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Account, Chattel Paper or Payment Intangible (or any
agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Account, Chattel Paper or Payment
Intangible (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance thereof or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any
time or times hereunder. 
 (c) Notification of Account Debtors. Collateral Agent may at any time after a
Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (or if any rights of set-off (other than set-offs against an Account arising under the contract giving rise to the same Account) or contra accounts may be asserted with respect to
the following), without prior notice to any Grantor, notify Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on the Collateral that the Secured Parties have a security interest therein, and that payments shall be made directly to Collateral Agent. Upon
the request of Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall so notify Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral. Once any such notice has been given to any Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, no Grantor shall give any
contrary instructions to such Account Debtor or other Person without Collateral Agent’s prior written consent. 
 (d) Communications with Third Parties; Account Information. Collateral Agent may at any time in Collateral Agent’s own name, in the name of a nominee of Collateral Agent or in the name of any
Grantor communicate (by mail, telephone, e-mail, facsimile, or otherwise) with Account Debtors, parties to contracts and obligors in respect of Instruments to verify with such Persons, to Collateral Agent’s satisfaction, the existence,
amount, terms of, and any other matter relating to, Accounts, Payment Intangibles, Instruments or Chattel Paper. If a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then each Grantor, at its own expense, shall cause the
independent certified public accountants then engaged by such Grantor to prepare and 

  
 8 

 
deliver to Collateral Agent and each Secured Party at any time and from time to time promptly upon Collateral Agent’s request the following reports with respect to such Grantor: (i) a
reconciliation of all Accounts; (ii) an aging of all Accounts; (iii) trial balances; and (iv) a test verification of such Accounts as Collateral Agent may request. Each Grantor, at its own expense, shall deliver to Collateral Agent
the results of each physical verification, if any, which such Grantor may in its discretion have made, or caused any other Person to have made on its behalf, of all or any portion of its Inventory. 

6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Grantor represents and warrants that: 

(a) Representations in Credit Agreement. The representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement and

respective items of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens, except Permitted Liens, and has full right and authority to pledge the Collateral for the purposes and upon the terms set out herein and the power to transfer the Collateral,
free and clear of any Lien except Permitted Liens. The performance by the Grantors of their obligations hereunder will not result in the creation of any Lien on any Collateral other than the Lien granted hereunder. No effective security agreement,
financing statement, equivalent security or Lien instrument, continuation statement covering, or other public notice with respect to all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as have been filed in
favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Security Agreement or any other Security Document, or to secure Permitted Liens. 

(c) Perfected First Priority Liens. This Security Agreement is effective to create a valid and continuing first
priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) on and, upon the filing of the appropriate financing statements in the jurisdictions listed on Schedule I hereto, a perfected first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) in favor of the
Secured Parties on the Collateral with respect to which a Lien may be perfected by filing pursuant to the UCC. Such Lien is prior to all other Liens, except Permitted Liens that would be prior to Liens in favor of the Secured Parties, and is
enforceable as such as against any and all creditors of and purchasers from each Grantor (other than purchasers and lessees of Inventory or other Goods or products for value in the ordinary course of business). All action by each Grantor necessary
or desirable to protect and perfect such Lien on each item of the Collateral has been duly taken. 
 (d)
Instruments, Letter of Credit Rights, and Chattel Paper. Schedule II hereto lists all Instruments, Letter of Credit Rights, and Chattel Paper of Grantor. All action by each Grantor necessary or desirable to protect and perfect the
Lien of the Secured Parties on each item set forth on Schedule II (including the delivery of all originals thereof to the Secured Parties and the legending of all Chattel Paper as required by Section 7(b) hereof) has been
duly taken. The Lien of the Secured Parties on the Collateral listed on 

  
 9 

 
Schedule II hereto is prior to all other Liens, except Permitted Liens that would be prior to the Liens in favor of the Secured Parties, and is enforceable as such against any and all
creditors of and purchasers from each Grantor.

Instrument or Chattel Paper; (ii) to each Grantor’s knowledge, there are no setoffs, claims or disputes existing or asserted with respect thereto and no Grantor has made any agreement with any Account Debtor for any extension of time for
the payment thereof, any compromise or settlement for less than the full amount thereof, any release of any Account Debtor from liability therefor, or any deduction therefrom except a discount or allowance allowed by any Grantor in the ordinary
course of its business for prompt payment and disclosed to the Secured Parties; (iii) to each Grantor’s knowledge, there are no facts, events or occurrences which in any way impair the validity or enforceability thereof or could reasonably
be expected to reduce the amount payable thereunder as shown on each Grantor’s books and records and any invoices, statements and Borrowing Base Reports delivered to the Secured Parties with respect thereto; (iv) no Grantor has received
any notice of proceedings or actions which are threatened or pending against any Account Debtor which might result in any material adverse change in such Account Debtor’s financial condition; and (v) no Grantor has any knowledge, except as
disclosed on Schedule IV, that any Account Debtor is unable generally to pay its debts as they become due. Further with respect to the Accounts (x) the amounts shown on all invoices, statements and Borrowing Base Reports which may be

Inventory or the payment of any monies to any third party upon such sale or other disposition, (viii) the completion of manufacture, sale or other disposition of such Inventory by the Secured Parties following an Event of Default shall not
require the consent of any Person, and shall not constitute a breach or default under any contract or agreement to which any Grantor is a party or to which such property is subject, and (ix) a Grantor purchased such Inventory for fair
consideration. 
 (h) Patents, Trademarks, and Copyrights. No Grantor has any interest in, or title to,
any patent, trademark or copyright except as set forth in Schedule V hereto. This Security Agreement is effective to create a valid and continuing Lien in the patents, trademarks and copyrights set forth on Schedule V hereto,
and, upon the filing of this Security Agreement with the United States Copyright Office and/or the United States Patent and Trademark Office, as applicable, together with the filing of appropriate UCC financing statements in the jurisdictions of the
applicable Grantors’ locations (under the UCC), is effective to perfect such Lien, and such perfected Lien is enforceable as such as against any and all creditors of and purchasers from the applicable Grantors (except those creditors holding
Permitted Liens). Upon the filing of this Security Agreement with the United States Copyright Office and/or the United States Patent and Trademark Office as applicable, and the filing of appropriate UCC financing statements in the jurisdictions of
the applicable Grantors’ locations (under the UCC), all action necessary or desirable to protect and perfect the Secured Parties’ Lien on the Grantors’ patents, trademarks or copyrights set forth on Schedule V hereto shall have
been duly taken.

 11

 (a) Further Assurances;
Pledge of Instruments; Chattel Paper. 
 (i) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of
Collateral Agent and at the sole expense of Grantors, Grantors shall promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as Collateral Agent may deem desirable to obtain the full
benefits of this Security Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including (A) using commercially reasonable efforts to secure all consents and approvals necessary or appropriate for the assignment to or for the benefit of the

executed in blank) promptly after each Grantor and its subsidiaries receive the same. 
 (iii) Each Grantor
shall, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, and at the request of Collateral Agent, obtain or use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain waivers or subordinations of Liens from landlords and warehousemen, and in all instances
where a bailee has possession of any Grantor’s Collateral that such bailee holds for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the applicable Grantor and its Subsidiaries shall obtain signed acknowledgements of the Secured Parties’ Liens from
such bailee. 
 (iv) If required by the terms of the Credit Agreement and not waived by the Collateral Agent
and/or the requisite Lenders, as applicable, in writing (which waiver may be revoked), each Grantor shall obtain authenticated control letters from each issuer of uncertificated securities, securities intermediary, or commodities intermediary

Parties to perfect their security interest in such Letter of Credit Rights, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. 

  
 12 

 (vii) Each Grantor shall take all steps necessary to grant the Secured
Parties control of all Electronic Chattel Paper in accordance with the UCC and all “transferable records” as defined in each of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act and the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act.

 (viii) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Collateral Agent or its counsel at any time and from time to
time to file in any filing office in any UCC Jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral (i) as all assets of Grantor or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any
particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC or such jurisdiction, or (ii) as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (b) contain any other information required by part 5
of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including (i) whether such Grantor is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued
to such Grantor, and (ii) in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing, a sufficient description of real property to which the Collateral relates. Each Grantor agrees to furnish any such information to Collateral Agent
promptly upon request. Each Grantor also ratifies its authorization for Collateral Agent to have filed in any UCC Jurisdiction any initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof. 

(b) Commercial Tort Claims. Each Grantor shall promptly, and in any event within two (2) Business Days after
the same is acquired by it, notify the Secured Parties of any commercial tort claim (as defined in the UCC) acquired by it, and, unless otherwise consented by the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall enter into a supplement to this Security
Agreement, granting to the Secured Parties a Lien in such commercial tort claim.

existing) may become abandoned or dedicated, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United
States Copyright Office, or any court) regarding any Grantor’s ownership of any patent, trademark, or copyright, its right to register the same, or its right to keep and maintain the same. 

(ii) In no event shall any Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, file an

way material to the conduct of its business or operations, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation, or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation, or dilution, and shall take such other actions as
Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such patent, trademark, or copyright Collateral. 

  
 14 

 (f) Indemnification. In any suit, proceeding, or action brought by
the Secured Parties relating to any Collateral for any sum owing with respect thereto or to enforce any rights or claims with respect thereto, each Grantor will save, indemnify, and keep the Secured Parties harmless from and against all expenses
(including attorneys’ fees and expenses), loss, or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or reduction of liability whatsoever of the Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, arising out
of a breach by any Grantor of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness, or liability at any time owing to, or in favor of, such obligor or its successors from any Grantor, except in the case of the Secured
Parties, to the extent such expense, loss, or damage is attributable solely to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Parties as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. All such obligations of any Grantor shall be
and remain enforceable against and only against such Grantor and shall not be enforceable against the Secured Parties. 
 (g) Compliance with Terms of Accounts, etc. In all material respects, each Grantor will perform and comply with all obligations in respect of the Collateral and all other agreements to which it is

interest of the Secured Parties in and to any of each Grantor’s rights under the Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever. 
 (i) Limitations on Disposition. No Grantor will sell, license, lease, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral or attempt or contract to do so except as permitted by the Credit
Agreement. 
 (j) Further Identification of Collateral. Each Grantor will, if so requested by Collateral

request, all in such detail as Collateral Agent may specify. 
 (k) Notices. Each Grantor will advise
Collateral Agent promptly, in reasonable detail, (i) of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) or claim made or asserted against any of the Collateral and (ii) of the occurrence of any other event which would have a material adverse effect
on the aggregate value of the Collateral or on the Liens created hereunder or under any other Loan Document. 

(l) No Reincorporation; Change of Name. Without limiting the prohibitions on mergers involving the Grantors

 15 

 (m) Subsidiaries. No Grantor will form or acquire any subsidiaries
without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.

termination statements and releases. 
 8. COLLATERAL AGENT’S APPOINTMENT AS ATTORNEY-IN-FACT. On the Closing Date,
Grantors shall execute and deliver to Collateral Agent a power of attorney (the “Power of Attorney”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The power of attorney granted pursuant to the Power of Attorney is a
power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until the Termination Date. The powers conferred on Collateral Agent under the Power of Attorney are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose
any duty upon Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties to exercise any such powers. Collateral Agent agrees that (a) except for the powers granted in clause (h) of the Power of Attorney, it shall not exercise any power or authority granted
under the Power of Attorney unless a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (b) Collateral Agent shall account for any moneys received by Collateral Agent in respect of any foreclosure on or disposition of Collateral
pursuant to the Power of Attorney, provided that Collateral Agent shall not have any duty as to any Collateral, and Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers. NEITHER
COLLATERAL AGENT NOR ITS RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE TO ANY GRANTOR FOR ANY ACT OR FAILURE TO ACT UNDER ANY POWER OF ATTORNEY OR OTHERWISE, EXCEPT IN RESPECT OF DAMAGES
ATTRIBUTABLE SOLELY TO ITS OWN GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, NOR FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. 

9. REMEDIES; RIGHTS UPON DEFAULT. 
 (a) In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and under any other instrument or agreement securing,
evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and applicable
law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor 

  
 16 

 
expressly agrees that in any such event Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified below of the time and
place of public or private sale) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the UCC and other applicable law), may forthwith
enter upon the premises of each Grantor where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving any Grantor or any other Person notice and opportunity for a hearing on
Collateral Agent’s claim or action and may collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or
otherwise dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at a public or private sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future
delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Collateral Agent shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of the Secured Parties,
the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which right of redemption each Grantor hereby releases. Such sales may be adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice. Collateral Agent
shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Grantor’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use any Grantor’s premises without charge for such time or times as Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable. 

If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor further agrees, at Collateral Agent’s
request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Collateral Agent at a place or places designated by Collateral Agent which are reasonably convenient to Collateral Agent and the applicable Grantor, whether at the applicable
Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Until Collateral Agent is able to effect a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, Collateral Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral, or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems
appropriate for the purpose of preserving Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Collateral Agent. Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to any Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of such Grantor as against
third parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of Collateral Agent. Collateral Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to enforce any of the
Secured Parties’ remedies, with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. Collateral Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to
the Obligations as provided in the Credit Agreement, and only after so paying over such net proceeds, and after the payment by Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, need Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if
any, to the applicable Grantor. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the
Collateral except such as arise solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties 

  
 17 

 
as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Grantor agrees that ten (10) days prior notice by Collateral Agent of the time and place of any public sale or of the time
after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such matters. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations, including
any attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency. 
 (b)
Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.

 (c) To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties to exercise
remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Collateral Agent to prepare
Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to
obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account
Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use
of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other
Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether
or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or
that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit
enhancements to insure the Secured Parties against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Secured Parties a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed
appropriate by Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that
the purpose of this Section 9(c) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties would not be commercially unreasonable in Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies
against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Collateral Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 9(c). Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing
contained in this Section 9(c) shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties that would not have been granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by
applicable law in the absence of this Section 9(c). 

  
 18 

 (d) Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall not be required to make
any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or
remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guarantee thereof. Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall not be required to marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Obligations or to resort to the Collateral
or any such guarantee in any particular order, and all of its and their rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be cumulative. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the
benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or
hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale conferred by this Security Agreement, or otherwise.

 (e) Proceeds from the sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be applied in the manner described in the
Credit Agreement. 
 10. GRANT OF LICENSE TO USE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL. For the purpose of enabling Collateral
Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Section 9 hereof (including, without limiting the terms of Section 9 hereof, in order to take possession of, hold, preserve, process, assemble, prepare for sale, market for sale,
sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time as Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, to the extent Grantor is not contractually prohibited from doing so, each Grantor hereby grants to Collateral
Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor) to use, license, or sublicense any intellectual property now owned or hereafter acquired by
any Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

 11. LIMITATION ON SECURED PARTIES’ DUTY IN RESPECT OF COLLATERAL. The Secured Parties shall use reasonable care
with respect to the Collateral in their possession or under their control. The Secured Parties shall not have any other duty as to any Collateral in their possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of the Secured
Parties, or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. 
 12. REINSTATEMENT. This Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or
reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any 

  
 19 

 
significant part of any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part
thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all
as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so
rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 
 13. NOTICES. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided
herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of the parties desires to give and serve upon any other
party any communication with respect to this Security Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as provided for in
the Credit Agreement. 
 14. SEVERABILITY. Whenever possible, each provision of this Security Agreement shall be
interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Security Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition
or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Security Agreement. This Security Agreement is to be read, construed and applied together with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents
which, taken together, set forth the complete understanding and agreement of Collateral Agent, the Secured Parties and the Grantors with respect to the matters referred to herein and therein. 

15. NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall not by any act, delay, omission, or otherwise
be deemed to have waived any of their rights or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by the Secured Parties and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties of
any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties would otherwise have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in
exercising on the part of Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or
future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.
None of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified, or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by the Secured Parties. 

16. LIMITATION BY LAW. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent
that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and to be limited to the
extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law. 

  
 20 

 17. TERMINATION OF THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT. Subject to Section 12 hereof,
this Security Agreement shall terminate on the Termination Date. 
 18. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Security Agreement
and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor (including any debtor-in-possession on behalf of any Grantor) and shall, together with the rights and remedies of Collateral Agent or the
Secured Parties, hereunder, inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties, all future holders of any instrument evidencing any of the Obligations and their respective successors and assigns. No sales of participations, other sales, assignments,
transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing the Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair the Lien granted to the Secured Parties hereunder. No Grantor may assign, sell,
hypothecate, or otherwise transfer any interest in or obligation under this Security Agreement. 
 19. COUNTERPARTS. This
Security Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one agreement. This Security Agreement may be executed by manual signature, facsimile, or electronic means, all of
which shall be equally valid. 
 20. GOVERNING LAW; SERVICE OF PROCESS; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS

 (a) THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF). 
 (b) Each of the Grantors and Collateral Agent hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 
 (i) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any
judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the U.S. federal courts in the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 

(ii) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or any claim that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 

  
 21 

 (iii) agrees that service of process any Grantor in any such action or
proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Grantor at its address set forth in the Credit Agreement or at such other address of which the
Collateral Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; 
 (iv) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the
right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by Law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 
 (v) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by Law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive, or
consequential damages. 
 21. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR AND EACH SECURED PARTY WAIVES ITS RESPECTIVE
RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION
OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. EACH GRANTOR AND EACH SECURED PARTY AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION
SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS,
IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS, OR MODIFICATIONS
TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. 
 22. SECTION TITLES. The Section titles contained in this
Security Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto. 
 23. NO STRICT CONSTRUCTION. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Security Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or
interpretation arises, this Security Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this
Security Agreement. 

  
 22 

 24. ADVICE OF COUNSEL. Each of the parties represents to each other party hereto that
it has discussed this Security Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Section 20 and Section 21, with its counsel. 
 25. BENEFIT OF THE SECURED PARTIES. All Liens granted or contemplated hereby shall be for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and all proceeds or payments realized from Collateral in accordance
herewith shall be applied to the Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. 
 26. ENTIRE
AGREEMENT. THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENTS EMBODY THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT AND UNDERSTANDING AMONG THE GRANTORS, COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE SECURED PARTIES, AND SUPERCEDES ALL PRIOR OR CONTEMPORANEOUS AGREEMENTS AND
UNDERSTANDINGS OF SUCH PERSONS, VERBAL OR WRITTEN, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF. 
 27.
MISCELLANEOUS. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Security Agreement and the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall prevail to the extent of such conflict or inconsistency.

Form of Power of Attorney 
 POWER OF ATTORNEY 
 This Power of Attorney is executed and delivered by
GREEN PLAINS GRAIN COMPANY LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GPG”), GREEN PLAINS GRAIN COMPANY TN LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GPG-TN”), GREEN PLAINS ESSEX INC., an Iowa
corporation (“GPG-Essex”), and any additional party joining the Security Agreement (defined below) as a grantor (each of GPG, GPG-TN, and GPG-Essex, individually as a “Grantor” and collectively as the
“Grantors”), and BNP PARIBAS, a bank organized under the laws of France (hereinafter referred to as “Attorney”), as Collateral Agent for the Lenders under the Credit Agreement dated as of October 28,
2011 (as amended, modified, restated or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) and other related documents (the “Loan Documents”). No person to whom this Power of Attorney is presented, as authority
for Attorney to take any action or actions contemplated hereby, shall be required to inquire into or seek confirmation from the Grantor as to the authority of Attorney to take any action described below, or as to the existence of or fulfillment of
any condition to this Power of Attorney, which is intended to grant to Attorney unconditionally the authority to take and perform the actions contemplated herein, and the Grantor irrevocably waives any right to commence any suit or action, in law or
equity, against any person or entity which acts in reliance upon or acknowledges the authority granted under this Power of Attorney. The power of attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest, and may not be revoked or canceled by the Grantor
without Attorney’s written consent. 
 The Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Attorney (and all officers,
employees or agents designated by Attorney), with full power of substitution, as the Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Grantor and in the name of the Grantor or in
its own name, from time to time in Attorney’s discretion, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of the Loan
Documents and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantor hereby grants to Attorney the power and right, on behalf of the Grantor, without notice to or assent by the Grantor, and at any time, to do the following: (a) change
the mailing address of the Grantor, open a post office box on behalf of the Grantor, open mail for the Grantor, and ask, demand, collect, give acquittances and receipts for, take possession of, endorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills
of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, and notices in connection with any property of the Grantor; (b) effect any repairs to any asset of the Grantor, or continue or obtain any insurance
and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and costs thereof, and make, settle and adjust all claims under such policies of insurance, and make all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies; (c) pay or discharge any
taxes, liens, security interests, or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Grantor or its property; (d) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against the Grantor if the Grantor does not defend such suit,
action or proceeding or if Attorney 

 
believes that the Grantor is not pursuing such defense in a manner that will maximize the recovery to Attorney, and settle, compromise or adjust any suit, action, or proceeding described above
and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as Attorney may deem appropriate; (e) file or prosecute any claim, litigation, suit or proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction or before any arbitrator, or take any other
action otherwise deemed appropriate by Attorney for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due to the Grantor whenever payable and to enforce any other right in respect of the Grantor’s property; (f) cause the certified public
accountants then engaged by the Grantor to prepare and deliver to Attorney at any time and from time to time, promptly upon Attorney’s request, the following reports: (1) a reconciliation of all accounts, (2) an aging of all accounts,
(3) trial balances, (4) test verifications of such accounts as Attorney may request, and (5) the results of each physical verification of Inventory; (g) communicate in its own name with any party to any contract with regard to
the assignment of the right, title and interest of the Grantor in and under the contracts and other matters relating thereto; (h) file such financing statements with respect to the Security Agreement dated as of October 28, 2011 (as
amended, modified, restated or supplemented from time to time, the “Security Agreement”), with or without the Grantor’s signature, or to file a photocopy of the Security Agreement in substitution for a financing statement, as
Attorney may deem appropriate and to execute in the Grantor’s name such financing statements and amendments thereto and continuation statements which may require the Grantor’s signature; and (i) execute, in connection with any sale
provided for in any Loan Document, any endorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral and to otherwise direct such sale or resale, all as though Attorney were the absolute owner of the
property of the Grantor for all purposes, and to do, at Attorney’s option and the Grantor’s expense, at any time or from time to time, all acts and other things that Attorney reasonably deems necessary to perfect, preserve, or realize upon
the Grantor’s property or assets and Attorney’s Liens thereon, all as fully and effectively as the Grantor might do. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this power of attorney, except for clauses (g) and (h) above, the Attorney
may only exercise the powers and rights granted hereunder following a Default or Event of Default under the Credit Agreement. 

This power of attorney shall terminate on the Termination Date of the Security Agreement. 

Each Grantor hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that said Attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue
hereof.
