liability company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Borrower”), the LENDERS party hereto and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent. 
 Intermediate Holdings, Borrower, the lenders named therein and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, are parties to Credit Agreement dated
as of November 22, 2005 (as heretofore modified and supplemented and in effect on the date hereof immediately before giving effect to the amendment and restatement contemplated hereby, the “Existing Credit Agreement”). Pursuant
to the Existing Credit Agreement, certain of the Lenders party hereto have committed to extend credit (by means of loans and letters of credit) in an aggregate principal or face amount of up to $100,000,000. The parties hereto now wish to increase

 “ABR”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, are bearing
interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate.

such term in Section 2.20.

 “Administrative Agent” means JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder, and its

indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls or is Controlled by or is under common Control with the Person specified. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no individual shall be deemed to be an Affiliate of a Person solely by reason of his or
her being an officer or director of such Person. 
 “Agreement” has the meaning assigned to such term in the preamble to
this Agreement. 
 “Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greater of (a) the Prime
Rate in effect on such day and (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus  1/2 of

respectively. 
 “Alternative Currency” means any currency that is freely available, freely transferable and freely
convertible into dollars and in which dealings in deposits are carried on in the New York, London or Tokyo interbank markets, provided that such currency is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank.

not yet been reimbursed at such time. 
 “Alternative Currency Letter of Credit” means a Letter of Credit denominated in an
Alternative Currency. 
 “Applicable Margin” means, for any day, with respect to any Eurodollar Loan or ABR Loan or with
respect to the commitment fees payable hereunder, as the case may be, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “Eurodollar Spread”, “ABR Spread” or “Commitment Fee Rate”, as the case may be, based
upon the ratings by Moody’s and S&P, respectively, applicable on such date to the Index Debt:

 For purposes of the foregoing, (a) if either Moody’s or S&P shall not have in effect a
rating for the Index Debt (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the last sentence of this paragraph or the next succeeding paragraph of this definition), then such rating agency shall be deemed to have established a rating in
Category 6, (b) if the ratings established or deemed to have been established by Moody’s and S&P for the Index Debt shall fall within different Categories, the Applicable Margin shall be based on the higher of the two ratings unless
one of the two ratings is two or more Categories lower than the other, in which case the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the Category next below that of the higher of the two ratings, and (c) if the ratings established or
deemed to have been established by Moody’s and S&P for the Index Debt shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of Moody’s or S&P), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first
announced by the applicable rating agency, irrespective of when notice of such change shall have been furnished by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.01 or otherwise. Each change in the Applicable
Margin shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if either
such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings
from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after the date that is 180 days after the Restatement Effective Date, the Borrower shall have the option,
solely for purposes of determining the Applicable Margin, to substitute, effective on the date specified for such substitution in the notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to the immediately succeeding sentence (which shall be a Business Day),
Fitch for either S&P or Moody’s (but not both S&P and Moody’s). To exercise such option, the Borrower must give written notice of such election to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, at least
three Business Days prior to the proposed effective date of such election. Such notice must specify (i) whether Fitch is to be substituted for 
  

 3 

 Moody’s or for S&P and (ii) the effective date of such election. On and after the effective
date of such election by the Borrower, (A) each reference under the heading “Index Debt Rating” in the table set forth in the first paragraph of this definition to ratings by S&P or Moody’s, as applicable, shall, solely for
purposes of determining the Applicable Margin, be deemed to refer to the corresponding rating of the Index Date by Fitch as set forth below: 
  

	
	 Index Debt Rating:

	 Category 1
  
 BBB+ by Fitch

	
	 Category 2
  
 BBB by Fitch

	
	 Category 3
  
 BBB- by Fitch

	
	 Category 4

	 Category 5
  
 BB by Fitch

 Otherwise

 and (B) each reference in the preceding paragraphs of this definition to S&P or Moody’s, as
applicable, shall be deemed to be a reference to Fitch. 
 “Applicable Percentage” means, at any time with respect to any
Lender, the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments represented by such Lender’s Revolving Commitment at such time. If the Revolving Commitments have terminated or expired, the Applicable Percentages shall be determined based upon the
Revolving Commitments most recently in effect, giving effect to any assignments after such termination or expiration. 
 “Assignment
and Acceptance” means an assignment and acceptance entered into by a Lender and an assignee (with the consent of any party whose consent is required by Section 9.04), and accepted by the Administrative Agent, in the form of
Exhibit A or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent. 
 “Availability Period” means the period from and
including the Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date of termination of the Commitments.

 7 

 Compensation Plans to, or for the benefit of, participants in such Deferred Compensation Plans) in respect of such
non-cash charges, expenses or losses (excluding any such charge, expense or loss incurred in the ordinary course of business that constitutes an accrual of or a reserve for cash charges for any future period) shall be subtracted from Consolidated

calculating the Net Leverage Ratio or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of any date, if Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary has made any Material Acquisition permitted by Section 6.04 or any Material Sale outside of the
ordinary course of business permitted by Section 6.05 during the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on the date on which the most recent fiscal quarter ended, Consolidated EBITDA for the relevant period for testing compliance
shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto, as if such Material Acquisition or Material Sale outside of the ordinary course of business (and any related incurrence, repayment or assumption of Indebtedness with any new Indebtedness
being deemed to be amortized over the applicable testing period in accordance with its terms) had occurred on the first day of the relevant period for testing compliance. Any pro forma calculations pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence

of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant

Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be
promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear, provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid
to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall
not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $100,000,000 and (ii) the aggregate Revolving Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments. 
 (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i)(A) the date that is one
year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after the date of such renewal or extension) or (B) such other date mutually agreed upon by an Issuing Bank and the
Borrower (but in no event shall such date be later than as provided in clause (ii) of this paragraph (c)) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. 
 (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any
further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of 
  

 31 

 Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter
of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in dollars, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of
(i) each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank in dollars and (ii) the Dollar Equivalent, using the Exchange Rates on the date such payment is required, of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank in an Alternative Currency and, in
each case, not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason (or, if such reimbursement payment was
refunded in an Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent thereof using the Exchange Rates on the date of such refund). Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of
Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or
termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 
 (e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement,
in dollars or (subject to the two immediately succeeding sentences) the applicable Alternative Currency, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the date on which the Borrower receives notice of
such LC Disbursement, provided that, in the case of any LC Disbursement made in dollars, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or Section 2.04 that such
payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving
Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or
similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in dollars, the Borrower shall reimburse each LC Disbursement made in such Alternative Currency in dollars, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent,
calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date such LC Disbursement is made, of such LC Disbursement. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, then (i) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit,
automatically and with no further action required, the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates
on the date when such payment was due, of such LC Disbursement and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Issuing Bank and each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the Dollar Equivalent thereof (if such LC Disbursement
relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly 
  

 32 

 following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in dollars its Applicable Percentage
of the payment then due from the Borrower (determined as provided in clause (i) above, if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such
Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank in dollars the amounts so received by it from the
Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to such Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made
payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC
Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 
 (f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05
shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any
Letter of Credit, any application for the issuance of a Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any
respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of
Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff
against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or any of their respective Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance
or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or
delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes
beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, provided that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph (f) shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to
consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by (A) the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining
whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof or (B) the Issuing Bank’s failure to issue a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement when requested by the Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.05(b). The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or wilful 
  

 33 

 misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such
determination and each issuance of (or failure to issue) a Letter of Credit. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented that appear on their face to be in
substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation or refuse to accept and make payment upon
such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 
 (g) Disbursement Procedures.
The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by
telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder, provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of
its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05. 
 (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount
thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans,
provided that if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, then Section 2.12(c) shall apply; provided further that, in the case of any LC
Disbursement made under an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the amount of interest due with respect thereto shall (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed on or before the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC
Disbursement, (A) be payable in the applicable Alternative Currency and (B) bear interest at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable Issuing Bank to be the cost to such Issuing Bank of funding such LC Disbursement
plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Eurodollar Loans at such time and (ii) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed after the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement, (A) be payable in dollars,
(B) accrue on the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date such LC Disbursement was made, of such LC Disbursement and (C) bear interest at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans,
subject to Section 2.12(c). Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
Section 2.05 to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 
 (i) Replacement
of the Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall 
  

 34 

 notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective,
the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights
and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous
Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and
obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the
Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of
the Lenders, an amount in dollars and in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, provided that (i) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Alternative Currency Letters of
Credit or LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency that the Borrower is not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Alternative Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements and
(ii) upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit
shall become immediately due and payable in dollars, without demand or other notice of any kind. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Alternative Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date that notice demanding
cash collateralization is delivered to the Borrower. The Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.10(b). Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to
Section 2.10(b) shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the
exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and
expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements
for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be
applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as
aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default 
  

 35 

 have been cured or waived. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to
Section 2.10(b), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.10(b) and no
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 (k) Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and
payable on any date pursuant to Section 7.01, all amounts (i) that the Borrower is at the time or thereafter becomes required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements made under any
Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect of which the Borrower has deposited cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.05(j), if such cash collateral was deposited in the applicable Alternative Currency to the extent so
deposited or applied), (ii) that the Lenders are at the time or thereafter become required to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the Issuing Bank pursuant
to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and (iii) of each Lender’s participation in any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit under
which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such
date, on the date such LC Disbursement is made), of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of the obligations described in this paragraph
shall accrue and be payable in dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder. 
 (l) Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrower may,
at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement,
provided that the total number of Lenders so designated at any time shall not exceed five. Any Lender designated as an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph (l) shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” for the purposes of this
Agreement (in addition to being a Lender) with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Lender. 
 (m) Reporting. Each Issuing Bank
will report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding week, (ii) on or prior
to each Business Day on which an Issuing Bank expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance or amendment and the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it
and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and such Issuing Bank shall advise the Administrative Agent on such Business Day whether such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred and whether the
amount thereof changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which an Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to
reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and amount of such LC Disbursement. 
  

 36 

 SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it
hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders,
provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower
maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, provided that ABR Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement
as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.05(e) to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the
Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. 
 (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in
accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing
available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such
amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such
Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 
 (c) Nothing in this Section 2.06 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its
obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by any such Lender hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for
the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its Commitments hereunder). 
 SECTION 2.07. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving
Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03 and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request or
designated by Section 2.03. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods 
  

 37 

 therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different
portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This
Section 2.07 shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to
this Section 2.07, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type
resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written
Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. 
 (c) Each telephonic and written
Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing
to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified
pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective
date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the
resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a
Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 
 If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an
Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent
shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) If the Borrower fails
to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such
Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Revolving Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is 
  

 38 

 continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long
as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Revolving Borrowing at
the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 
 SECTION 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless
previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. 
 (b) The Borrower may, without premium or penalty, at any time
terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class, provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and
(ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the aggregate Revolving Exposures would exceed the aggregate
Revolving Commitments. 
 (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under
paragraph (b) of this Section 2.08 at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the
Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be irrevocable, provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the
Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if
such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving
Commitments. 
 SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay
(i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Maturity Date and (ii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline
Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or
last day of a calendar month and is at least five Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made, provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date
such Borrowing was requested. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the
indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 

 39 

 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each
Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the
amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof, which accounts the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower upon its reasonable request.

 (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.09 shall be prima
facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein, provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans and pay interest thereon in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (e) Any Lender may
request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to
such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to
Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 
 SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole
or in part, without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.15), subject to the requirements of this Section 2.10. 
 (b) In
the event and on each occasion that the aggregate Revolving Exposures exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Borrowings or Swingline Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash
collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(j)) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. 
 (c)
Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (d) of this
Section 2.10. 
 (d) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the
Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment,
(ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of 
  

 40 

 prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid, provided that, if a notice of optional prepayment of any
Loans is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with
Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be
in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a portion of any
Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12. 
 SECTION 2.11. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall
accrue at the Applicable Margin on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitment
terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the third Business Day following the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the
first such date to occur after the date hereof. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For
purposes of computing commitment fees, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for
such purpose). 
 (b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with
respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any
portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on
which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Issuing Bank on the average daily amount of the
LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the
date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and
fronting fees accrued through 
  

 41 

 and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day
following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Restatement Effective Date, provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after
the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall
be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing the average daily amount of the LC Exposure for any period
under this Section 2.11(b), the average daily amount of the Alternative Currency LC Exposure for such period shall be calculated by multiplying (x) the average daily balance of each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (expressed in the
currency in which such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is denominated) by (y) the Exchange Rate for each such Alternative Currency in effect on the last Business Day of such period or by such other reasonable method that the
Administrative Agent deems appropriate. 
 (c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in
the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) All fees payable hereunder
shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds in dollars, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the
Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 
 SECTION 2.12. Interest. (a) The Loans
comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid
when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of
overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.12 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as
provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.12. 
 (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) on each
Interest Payment Date for such Loan and (ii) in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments, provided that (A) interest accrued pursuant 
  

 42 

 to paragraph (d) of this Section 2.12 shall be payable on demand, (B) in the event of any repayment or
prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and
(C) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 
 (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base
Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the
first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, and such determination shall be prima facie evidence
thereof. 
 SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be prima facie evidence thereof) that
adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or 
 (b) the
Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such
Interest Period; 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as
practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (it being understood that the Administrative Agent will use commercially reasonable
efforts to give such notice as soon as practicable after such circumstances no longer exist), (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a
Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Revolving Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law (except with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 2.16) shall:

 (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with
or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank; or 
  

 43 

 (ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other
condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the
foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as
the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) If any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s or the Issuing
Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of
Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such
Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank,
as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its
holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14, and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis on which such amount or amounts were calculated and stating that such calculation has
been made in a manner consistent with the treatment given by such Lender or Issuing Bank to similar businesses in similar circumstances, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be prima facie evidence thereof. The Borrower shall
pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation,
provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; and provided
further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
  

 44 

 SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any
Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto,
(c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(d) and is revoked in accordance
therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall
compensate each Lender for the loss (other than lost profits), cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined by such
Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from
the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of
interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the
eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15, and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis on which such amount or amounts were
calculated, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be prima facie evidence thereof. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof. 
 SECTION 2.16. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made free
and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased
as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the
sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written demand
therefor, for the full amount of 
  

 45 

 any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may
be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) and
any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to
the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Any Foreign Lender (or Participant) that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax
under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or under any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) (or,
in the case of a Participant, to the Foreign Lender from which the related participation was purchased), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that, with respect to such documentation provided to the Borrower, such Foreign Lender (or Participant) has received written
notice from the Borrower advising it of the availability of such exemption or reduction and supplying all applicable documentation. In addition, each Foreign Lender (or Participant) shall deliver substitute forms promptly upon the obsolescence or
invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Foreign Lender (or Participant), provided that, with respect to such documentation provided to the Borrower, such Foreign Lender (or Participant) has received written notice from the
Borrower advising it of such obsolescence and supplying such substitute forms. 
 (f) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender or the Issuing
Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, which the
Administrative Agent or such Lender or the Issuing Bank is able to identify as such, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this
Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or the Issuing Bank and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant
Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or the Issuing 
  

 46 

 Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the
relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or the Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender or the Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Nothing
contained in this Section 2.16(f) shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any
other Person. 
 SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each
payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, Section 2.15 or Section 2.16, or
otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available
funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest
thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except
that payments pursuant to Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to any other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified
therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day
that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. Except as provided in
Section 2.05(e), all payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars. 
 (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received
by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due
hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably
among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 
 (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans
resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its 
  

 47 

 Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the
proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to
the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans and participations in LC
Disbursements and Swingline Loans, provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored
to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any
payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate
thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing
arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance
upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally
agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of
payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
 (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), Section 2.05(d), Section 2.05(e),
Section 2.06(b), Section 2.17(d) or Section 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental
Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to 
  

 48 

 designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be,
in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in
connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its sole
expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights
and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank (which consent (x) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (y) in the case of any consent required by any Issuing Bank, shall be deemed to have been
given in the event that such Issuing Bank fails to respond in writing to a request for written consent within two Business Days of receipt thereof), (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of
its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees)
or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will
result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the
Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Nothing in this Section 2.18 shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by any such Lender in its
obligations to fund Loans hereunder. 
 SECTION 2.19. Change in Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
if, after the date hereof, (i) any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, or (ii) there shall have occurred any change in national or international
financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates that would make it impracticable for any Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit denominated in such Alternative
Currency for the account of the Borrower, then by prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), such Issuing Bank may declare that Letters
of Credit will not thereafter be 
  

 49 

 issued by it in the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies, whereupon the affected Alternative Currency
or Alternative Currencies shall be deemed (for the duration of such declaration) not to constitute an Alternative Currency for purposes of the issuance of Letters of Credit by such Issuing Bank. 
 SECTION 2.20. Revolving Commitment Increases. (a) At any time and from time to time during the Availability Period, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request to increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments
(each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”), provided that at the time of each such request and upon the effectiveness of each Revolving Increase Amendment, (A) no Default has occurred and is continuing or
shall result therefrom and (B) the Borrower shall have delivered a certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect set forth in clause (A) above. Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving
Commitment Increases shall not exceed $250,000,000. Each Revolving Commitment Increase shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000, provided that such amount may be
less than $10,000,000 if such amount represents all the remaining availability under the maximum aggregate principal amount of Revolving Commitment Increases set forth above. 
 (b) Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall set forth the requested amount of the relevant Revolving Commitment Increase.
Any additional bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person that elects to provide a portion of any Revolving Commitment Increase shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and
the Issuing Bank (any such bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person being called an “Additional Lender”) and, if not already a Lender, shall become a Lender under this Agreement pursuant to a Revolving Increase
Amendment. Each Revolving Commitment Increase shall be effected by an amendment (a “Revolving Increase Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower,
such Additional Lender and the Administrative Agent. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Revolving Commitment Increase, unless it so agrees. Commitments in respect of any Revolving Commitment Increase shall become Revolving Commitments (or
in the case of any Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Lender, an increase in such Lender’s Revolving Commitment) under this Agreement. A Revolving Increase Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect
such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.20. The effectiveness of any Revolving Increase Amendment shall, unless otherwise
agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Additional Lenders, be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, a “Revolving Increase Closing Date”) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (it being
understood that all references to “the date of such Borrowing” in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the Revolving Increase Closing Date). The proceeds of any Loans made pursuant to Revolving Commitment Increases will be used
only for working capital and other general corporate purposes. 
  

 50 

 (c) Upon each Revolving Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section 2.20, (i) each Lender
immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Additional Lender, and each Additional Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such
Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase and each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the
aggregate outstanding (A) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (B) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Lender (including each Additional Lender) will equal such Lender’s Applicable Percentage and
(ii) if, on the date of such Revolving Commitment Increase, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such Revolving Commitment
Increase), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.15. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the
minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. 
 ARTICLE III 
 Representations and Warranties

 Each of Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders with respect to itself and its subsidiaries
that: 
 SECTION 3.01. Organization; Powers. Each of Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries is duly incorporated or
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required. 
 SECTION 3.02. Authorization; Enforceability. The execution, delivery and performance by Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower of the Loan
Documents to which it is a party are within their respective powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary action. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each of Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower and constitutes, and
each other Loan Document to which Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower is to be a party, when executed and delivered by Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower, as applicable, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of Intermediate
Holdings or the Borrower (as the case may be), enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, 
  

 51 

 insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally
and to general principles of equity and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 SECTION 3.03. Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower (a) do not require any consent or approval of,
registration or filing with, or any other action by or before, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and, except where the failure to obtain such consent or approval or to make such
registration or filing, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not violate any applicable law, regulation or any order of any Governmental Authority in any material respect
or the memorandum and articles of association, charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, material agreement or
other material instrument binding upon Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any
Subsidiary, except for violations or payments that, individually and in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of
Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary. 
 SECTION 3.04. Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change.
(a) Intermediate Holdings has heretofore furnished to the Lenders the audited consolidated balance sheet and related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Intermediate Holdings as of and for the fiscal years
ended July 1, 2005, and June 30, 2006, in each case, setting forth in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year and reported on by Ernst & Young LLP, independent auditors, to the effect that such financial
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition and results of operations and cash flows of Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis as of such dates and for such
periods in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. 
 (b) Except as disclosed in the financial statements referred to in
paragraph (a) above or the notes thereto and except for the Disclosed Matters, none of Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or the Subsidiaries has, as of the Restatement Effective Date after giving effect to any Loans made on such date, any
material contingent liabilities, unusual long-term commitments or unrealized losses.

 then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of this Section 7.01), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such
event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon
the Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and

 ARTICLE VIII 
 The Administrative Agent 
 Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to
take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Except to the extent expressly
provided in this Article VIII, the provisions of this Article VIII are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such
provisions. 
 The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as
any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower
or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not have
any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of
whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the
Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary or believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be necessary
under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any
information relating to Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as 
  

 73 

 shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross
negligence or wilful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or a Lender, and the
Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or
other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the
validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to
confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution)
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper
Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any
action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 The Administrative Agent may
perform any of and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of and all its duties and exercise
its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to
their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 
 In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a
Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank
prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit. 
 Subject to the appointment and
acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time upon notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such 
  

 74 

 resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the approval of the Borrower (which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its
resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent that shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank.
Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents in its capacity as Administrative Agent. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to
its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such
retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related
Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based
upon any Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished thereunder. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
none of the Joint Arrangers, Sole Bookrunner, Syndication Agent or Co-Document Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under any Loan Document, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the
Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder. 
 ARTICLE IX

by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Article II if such Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative
Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic
communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt. 
 SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments.
(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power,
or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the
Lenders under the Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower
therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall 
  

 76 

 be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in
the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any
Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower in any case shall entitle Intermediate
Holdings or the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 (b) Except as provided in
Section 2.20 with respect to any Revolving Increase Amendment, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an
agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each of Intermediate
Holdings and the Borrower, if they are parties thereto, and the Administrative Agent, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders, provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the
written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby,
(iii) postpone the final maturity of any Loan or the required date of reimbursement of any LC Disbursement, or any required date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such
required payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata
sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 or the percentage set forth in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other
provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender,
(vi) release Intermediate Holdings from its Guarantee under the Guarantee Agreement (except as expressly provided in the Guarantee Agreement), or limit its liability in respect of such Guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender, or
(viii) change the definition of the term “Interest Period” to permit the Borrower to select interest periods of 9 or 12 months for Eurodollar Borrowings without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; provided
further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or the Guarantee Agreement without the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be. In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all
affected Lenders, if the consent of the Required Lenders to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as
described in this Section 9.02(b) being 
  

 77 

 referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Lender that is acting as the
Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at the Borrower’s request, any assignee that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (and that is not a Non-Consenting Lender) shall have the right, with the prior consent of the
Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank (which consent (x) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (y) in the case of any consent required by any Issuing Bank, shall be deemed to have been given in the
event that such Issuing Bank fails to respond in writing to a request for consent within two Business Days of receipt thereof), to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lender, and such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon the
Borrower’s request, sell and assign to such assignee, at no expense to such Non-Consenting Lender (including with respect to any processing and recordation fees that may be applicable pursuant to Section 9.04(b)(ii)(c), which shall be paid
by the assignee or the Borrower), all the Commitments and Revolving Exposure of such Non-Consenting Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Revolving Loans (and funded participations in Swingline Loans and unreimbursed LC
Disbursements) held by such Non-Consenting Lender and all accrued interest, fees and other amounts with respect thereto through the date of sale (including amounts under Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16), such purchase and sale to be consummated
pursuant to an executed Assignment and Acceptance in accordance with Section 9.04(b) (which Assignment and Acceptance need not be signed by such Non-Consenting Lender). 
 SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and by MSSF, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the Administrative Agent and MSSF in each applicable jurisdiction, in connection with the syndication of the credit
facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel each, in each applicable jurisdiction, for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in
connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 9.03, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 
 (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, MSSF and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold
each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any
third party or by Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary arising out of, in connection with, 
  

 78 

 or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of the commitment letter (and related fee letter) with respect to
the credit facility contemplated hereby, any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated thereby or the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder, (ii) any Loan or Letter of
Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such
Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence, Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials at, onto or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any
other Environmental Liability related in any way to Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on
contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 
 (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline
Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage
(determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case
may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. 
 (d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither Intermediate Holdings nor the Borrower shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential
or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby (including the execution, delivery and performance by
Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower of such Loan Document, agreement or instrument), any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. In addition, no Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of
information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent such damages resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 
 (e) All amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. 
 (f) No director, officer, employee, stockholder or member, as such, of Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower shall have any liability for the obligations
of 
  

 79 

 Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower under the Loan Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of
such obligations or their creation, provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to relieve Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower of its obligations under any Loan Document. 
 SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or
obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.04. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of
each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it), provided that except in the case of an assignment of Loans or Commitments to a Lender or Lender Affiliate, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each
Issuing Bank must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent (x) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (y) in the case of any consent required by any Issuing Bank, shall be deemed to have been given in
the event that such Issuing Bank fails to respond in writing to a request for consent within two Business Days of receipt thereof); and provided further that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under
clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing. 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the
following additional conditions: (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitment (or, after the Commitments have been
terminated, Revolving Exposure), the amount of the Revolving Commitment (or, after the Commitments have been terminated, Revolving Exposure) of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and
Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall be an amount not less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a
Revolving Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its Swingline Exposure, the Swingline Lender) otherwise consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that no such consent of the Borrower
shall be required if an Event of Default under 
  

 80 

 paragraph (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing, (B) each partial
assignment of one Class of an assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under such Class of Commitments or Loans, (C) the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that assignments made pursuant to Section 2.18(b) shall not
require the signature of the assigning Lender to become effective, and (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 2.16(e).

 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section 9.04, from and after the
effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement (provided that any liability of the Borrower to such assignee under Section 2.14, Section 2.15 or Section 2.16 shall be limited to the amount, if any, that would have been payable thereunder by the Borrower in the
absence of such assignment; and provided further that an assignee that is a Foreign Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless such assignee agrees to comply with the requirements of Section 2.16(e)),
and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 9.03 and
to any fees payable hereunder that have accrued for such Lender’s account but have not yet been paid). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph (b) shall
be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c)(i) of this Section 9.04. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy
of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms
hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender,
at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (c) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and
Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed 
  

 81 

 Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 2.16(e) (unless the assignee shall already be a
Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04, the Administrative Agent
shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

 (d) The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance
shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping
system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state
laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 (e) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it), provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection
with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to
approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment,
modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section 9.04, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 2.14, Section 2.15 and Section 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04. To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender. 
 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been
entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were
a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as
though it were a Lender. 
  

 82 

 (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest,
provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In the case of any Lender that is a
fund that invests in bank loans, such Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, assign or pledge all or any portion of any instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement to any trustee for, or
any other representative of holders of obligations owed or securities issued by, such fund, as security for such obligations or securities, provided that any foreclosure or similar action by such trustee or representative shall be subject to
the provisions of this Section 9.04 concerning assignments. 
 (g) In the event that S&P or Moody’s shall, after the date that
any Lender becomes a Lender, downgrade the long-term certificate deposit ratings or long-term senior unsecured debt ratings of such Lender (or the parent company thereof), and the resulting ratings shall be BBB+ or lower by S&P or Baa1 or
lower by Moody’s, then each of the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to replace (or to request the
Borrower, at the sole expense of the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, to use its reasonable efforts to replace) such Lender with respect to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment with an assignee (in accordance with and subject
to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above, including the right of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to consent to the identity of such assignee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)), and such Lender
hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above) all its interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Revolving Commitment to such assignee;
provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule and regulation or order of any Governmental Authority, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued
interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts and (iii) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b). 
 (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding
vehicle (an “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender
would otherwise be obligated to make to the 
  

 83 

 Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any
SPV to make any Loan or, except as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, affect in any way the Commitment of the Granting Lender and (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of
such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such
Granting Lender. In the event that an SPV provides all or any part of any Loan, Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Granting Lender with respect to such Loan, including
with respect to the giving of notices and the delivery of financial statements, certificates and other documents (including pursuant to Article V) and information. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be (A) liable for any
indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender), (B) have any voting rights under Section 9.02 or Article VII or with respect to any other matter under this
Agreement to which the Lenders are entitled to give their consent (all of which voting rights shall remain with the Granting Lender) or (C) entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to Section 2.14, Section 2.15,
Section 2.16 or Section 9.03 than the Granting Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of any Loan provided by the SPV if the Granting Lender had in fact made such Loan. In furtherance of the foregoing, each
party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV,
such party will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In
addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee
therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of
such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or
liquidity enhancement to such SPV. As this Section 9.04(i) applies to any particular SPV, this Section may not be amended without the written consent of such SPV. 
 SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in
connection with or pursuant to any Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of
Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or
warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and 
  

 84 

 shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any
other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and
Section 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the
Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 
 SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the
other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the syndication of the Loans and Commitments constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof
and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the
Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a
particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and
all the obligations of the Borrower then existing under this Agreement (to the extent such obligations of the Borrower are then due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise)) held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall
have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness. The applicable
Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this
Section 9.08. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have. 
  

 85 

 SECTION 9.09. Governing law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL
BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 (b) Each of Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower

final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in any Loan Document shall affect any right that the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document against Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

 (c) Each of Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and
effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.09.
Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in any Loan
Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. Each of Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower hereby appoint Seagate Technology (US) Holdings, Inc. as agent for service of process
in the United States and Seagate Technology (US) Holdings, Inc. hereby accepts such appointment. 
 SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY
TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE

FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.10. 
 SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of
this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9.12.
Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its
Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information

its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap or other derivative agreements or such contractual counterparties’ professional advisors, (g) with
the consent of the Borrower, (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.12 or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any
Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower or (i) to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with
ratings issued with respect to such Lender. In the case of any disclosure of Information pursuant to clause (c) or clause(e) of the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent will inform the Borrower of such disclosure. For the purposes of
this Section 9.12, the term “Information” means all information received from Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower relating to Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower or their business, other than any such information that is
available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this
Section 9.12 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential
information.

 SECTION 9.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any
time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any LC Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein under applicable law
(collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or LC Disbursement or
participation therein in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the
interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.13 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable
to such Lender in respect of other Loans or LC Disbursements or participations therein or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective
Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 
 SECTION 9.14. Judgment Currency. (a) The Borrower’s
obligations hereunder and the Borrower’s and Intermediate Holdings’s obligations under the other Loan Documents to make payments in dollars (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or
recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent or a Lender of the full
amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under the Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Borrower or Intermediate Holdings in any court or in
any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency,
the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or, if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative
Agent) determined, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”). 
 (b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount
due, the Borrower covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of
exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency that could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the
Judgment Currency Conversion Date. 
  

 88 

 (c) For purposes of determining the rate of exchange for this Section 9.14, such amounts shall
include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency. 
 SECTION 9.15. USA Patriot Act.
Each Lender hereby notifies Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “USA Patriot Act”), it is
required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to
identify Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

 11 

 (II) In the event that after an Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service with a
Participating Company he or she is otherwise entitled to continued coverage under the Corporation’s basic life insurance, medical and dental plans pursuant to any employee benefit plan or program of the Corporation (other than this Program),
the total benefits paid for by the Participating Companies during the period described above shall not exceed the benefits to which the Eligible Employee is entitled under this Section 4(a)(iv). 
 (III) For purposes of this Section 4(a)(iv), the Corporation’s basic life insurance plan shall not include any other type of
life insurance coverage provided through or by the Corporation to or on behalf of its employees.

Change of Control Benefits under the Program as follows:

date an Eligible Employee Separates from Service, a lump sum cash benefit equal to the Eligible Employees’ annual Base Compensation plus his or her annual Base Compensation multiplied by his or her standard bonus percentage (as determined

	 Eligible Employee
	  	Pay Multiple
Factor

	 Other Eligible Employees
	  	2.50

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Eligible Employee Separates from Service on or after the
date thirty (30) months prior to the Eligible Employee’s Normal Retirement Date, the applicable factor shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months between the date the Eligible Employee Separates from Service
and such Normal Retirement Date and the denominator of which is twelve (12). An Eligible Employee described in the preceding sentence shall be entitled to an additional benefit equal to the difference between the benefit payable to the Eligible
Employee, if any, 

  

 13 

 
under the Retirement Plan and the Retirement Plan Supplemental Benefit provisions of the Supplemental Plans, and such benefits that would have been payable,
if any, under the Retirement Plan and Supplemental Plans if the Eligible Employee had remained an Eligible Employee and continued to earn his or her Base Compensation until his or her Normal Retirement Date; provided, however, that the Present Value
of such additional benefit shall not exceed the difference between the lump sum benefit determined under the preceding sentence and the lump sum benefit determined using the otherwise applicable factor from the table above. Such additional benefit
shall be paid at the same time and in the same form as any benefit payable to the Eligible Employee under the Potlatch Forest Products Corporation Salaried Employees’ Supplemental Benefit Plan II or, if no benefit is payable to the Eligible
Employee under the such plan, the Present Value of such additional benefit shall be paid in a lump sum at the same time as the Eligible Employee’s Change of Control Benefits are paid; 
 (ii) A lump sum cash benefit equal to the Eligible Employee’s unused and accrued vacation pay, if any, under the terms of the
Participating Company’s officer vacation policy. For this purpose, (I) an Eligible Employee’s Base Compensation and the terms of the officer vacation policy shall be determined as of the date when the Eligible Employee Separates from
Service or as of the date of the Change of Control, whichever produces the larger amount and (II) accrued vacation pay shall be paid notwithstanding any minimum service requirement of the Participating Company’s officer vacation policy;

  

 14 

 (iii) Eligibility for an “Award” under the MPAP for the “Award Year”
in which he or she Separates from Service determined under all the terms and conditions of such plan; 
 (iv) COBRA premium
payments during the number of years equal to the applicable factor determined under (b)(i) above, subject to all of the conditions and limitations described in Section 4(a)(iv)(I) through (IV) above (determined without regard to the last
paragraph of Section 4(a)) under the following employee benefit plans of the Corporation; 
 (A) Provided that the
Eligible Employee timely elects continued coverage under COBRA, medical coverage in the amount, if any, that the Eligible Employee had in effect on the day preceding the date of his or her Separation from Service; 
 (B) Provided that the Eligible Employee timely elects continued coverage under COBRA, dental coverage in the amount, if any, that the
Eligible Employee had in effect on the day preceding the date of his or her Separation from Service; and 
 (C) Basic life
insurance coverage in the amount, if any, that the Eligible Employee had in effect on the day preceding the date of his or her Separation from Service; 
 (v) In the case of an Eligible Employee who has less than two (2) Years of Vesting Service on the date he or she Separates from Service, a lump sum cash benefit equal to (A) the value of that portion of the
Eligible Employee’s “Company Stock Account” in the Salaried Employees’ Savings Plan attributable to “Company Contributions” under such plan made on the Eligible Employee’s behalf in a “Plan Year” which
are unvested, plus (B) the unvested portion, if any, of the Eligible Employee’s 

  

 15 

 
“Savings Plan Supplemental Benefit” account under the Supplemental Plans. The value of those portions of the Eligible Employee’s “Company
Stock Account” and the “Savings Plan Supplemental Benefit” accounts referred to in the preceding sentence shall be determined as of the date the Eligible Employee Separates from Service with the Participating Companies; and

 (vi) A lump sum cash benefit equal to the Present Value of the Eligible Employee’s “Normal Retirement
Benefit” and “Retirement Plan Supplemental Benefit” determined under the Retirement Plan and the Supplemental Plans, respectively, if the Eligible Employee was not entitled to a “Vested Benefit” under the Retirement Plan as
of the date the Eligible Employee Separates from Service with the Participating Companies. 
 (c) Payment of Excise Taxes. If any
payment or benefit to or for the benefit of the Eligible Employee in connection with a Change of Control is deemed an “excess parachute payment” as defined in Section 280G of the Code subject to the excise tax imposed by
Section 4999 of the Code, the Corporation shall pay to the Eligible Employee an additional amount such that the total amount of all such payments and benefits (including payments made pursuant to this Section 4(c)) to the Eligible Employee
shall equal the total amount of all such payments and benefits to which the Eligible Employee would have been entitled (but for this Section 4(c)) net of all applicable federal, state and local taxes except the excise tax. For purposes of this
Section 4(c), the Eligible Employee shall be deemed to pay federal, state and local taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation for the applicable calendar year. The amount of the payment to the Eligible Employee shall be estimated by a
third-party service provider selected by the Corporation as of the date of the event specified in Section 5(a) or, if earlier, as of the date of the Change of Control as determined pursuant to Section 5(b). Within thirty (30)

  

 16 

 
business days following the effective date of an Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service, the estimated amount due the Eligible Employee pursuant to
this Section 4(c) shall be paid to the Eligible Employee. In the event that the amount of the estimated payment is less than the amount actually due to the Eligible Employee under this Section 4(c), the amount of any such shortfall shall
be paid to the Eligible Employee within ten (10) business days after the existence of the shortfall is discovered. 
 (d) No Duty to
Mitigate. The Eligible Employee shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payments provided under Section 4(b) and 4(c), nor shall any payment or benefit provided for in Section 4(b) and 4(c) be offset by any compensation
earned by the Eligible Employee as the result of employment by another employer or by retirement benefits. 
 SECTION
5. CONDITIONS FOR PAYMENT OF SEVERANCE BENEFITS. 
 (a) Payment Of Basic Severance Benefits. Subject to the provisions of
Section 5(c), an Eligible Employee will be eligible for the benefits specified in Section 4(a) upon the occurrence of any of the following events (except that an Eligible Employee who has satisfied the conditions of Section 5(b) will
be eligible for the benefits specified in Section 4(b) rather than the benefits specified in Section 4(a)):

Employee’s employer’s status as a Participating Company due to the sale to a third party or a spin-off of a designated 

  

 17

Corporation or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Corporation as defined in the regulations promulgated under Section 409A of the Code; or 
 (iii) The Participating Company requires the Eligible Employee to relocate his or her principal place of work and the new principal place
of work is fifty (50) or more miles further from the Eligible Employee’s primary residence than was his or her former principal place of work, and the Eligible Employee elects to Separate from Service rather than to relocate; or

 (iv) The Eligible Employee Separates from Service with a Participating Company within twenty-four (24) months
following: 
 (A) A material Reduction in Authority or Responsibility of the Eligible Employee. Whether a Reduction in
Authority or Responsibility of the Eligible Employee is material shall be determined in accordance with the criteria set forth in Section 2(s) in the definition of Reduction in Authority or Responsibility; provided, however, that (i) a
change in the Eligible Employee’s reporting relationship to another executive who is within the same reporting level or (ii) a reduction in the Eligible Employee’s business unit budget or a reduction in the Eligible Employee’s
business unit headcount or number of direct reports, by themselves, shall not constitute a material Reduction in Authority or Responsibility, or 
 (B) Any reduction in the Eligible Employee’s Base Compensation, standard bonus opportunity or long term incentive opportunity or a fifteen percent or greater reduction in the Eligible Employee’s aggregate
benefits or perquisites as compared to 

  

 18 

 
those of all other employees similarly situated, unless in each case the reduction is applicable to all salaried employees or all other employees similarly
situated; provided, however, that this Section 5(a)(iv) shall apply to the Separation from Service of an Eligible Employee only if the Eligible Employee or the Participating Company has notified the other party in writing within three
(3) months following the occurrence of any such change that the party giving notice considers such change to be a material change encompassed by this Section 5(a)(iv). If the party receiving such notice does not agree that the change in
question is a material change encompassed by this Section 5(a)(iv), it shall give written notice thereof to the party first giving notice hereunder within thirty (30) days after receiving notice and the matter shall be immediately referred
to the Review Panel; provided, however, that, within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice that the other party does not agree that the change in question is covered by this Section 5(a)(iv), the Eligible Employee may request
that the matter be submitted directly to arbitration as provided in Section 11. If necessary, the twenty-four (24) month period specified above shall be extended to a date not later than thirty (30) days following (i) the
announcement of the decision of the Review Panel or, if the matter is referred to arbitration within thirty (30) days following the announcement of the Review Panel’s decision, the announcement of the award of the arbitrator, or
(ii) if the matter is referred directly to arbitration, the announcement of the award of the arbitrator. The Participating Company or the Eligible Employee may each give the notice described in this Section 5(a)(iv) only once while this
Program is in effect. If one party has given notice and the twenty-four (24) month period specified above has commenced running, the other party may not give notice hereunder with respect to a change occurring during such 

  

 19 

 
twenty-four (24) month period. If an Eligible Employee gives notice pursuant to this Section 5(a)(iv) and the Corporation thereafter in good faith
makes an adjustment in the Eligible Employee’s compensation, benefits, assigned job or duties, responsibilities, privileges or perquisites, the Eligible Employee and the Corporation may mutually agree in writing that the notice shall be null
and void. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no benefits shall be available under the Program (i) if the Eligible Employee Separates from Service with a
Participating Company because he or she is eligible for or receiving long-term or permanent disability benefits under the Corporation’s disability income plan as in effect on the date of onset of disability or (ii) if the Eligible Employee
satisfies all of the following conditions: 
 (I) He or she Separates from Service on or after his or her Normal Retirement
Date; 
 (II) For the two-year period immediately before retirement, he or she qualified as an Eligible Employee; and

 (III) He or she is entitled to benefits under the Retirement Plan, Salaried Employees’ Savings Plan and Supplemental
Plans which, when converted to a straight life annuity (and excluding any portion of the benefit under the Salaried Employees’ Savings Plan which represents contributions by the Eligible Employee), equals, in the aggregate, at least $44,000.

 (b) Payment Of Change Of Control Benefits. An Eligible Employee will be eligible for the benefits specified in Section 4(b)
if, within two (2) years following a Change of Control, the Eligible Employee Separates from Service under the conditions described in Section 5(a)(i), (ii) or (iii) or a material change described in Section 5(a)(iv) occurs
and the Eligible 

  

 20 

 
Employee thereafter Separates from Service under the conditions described in Section 5(a)(iv); provided, that the Eligible Employee was employed by a
Participating Company on the date preceding the Change of Control. 
 (c) Limitations On Eligibility For Benefits. 
 (i) If an Eligible Employee is assigned from one to another Participating Corporation, he or she shall not be considered to have Separated
from Service under the provisions of the Program. 
 (ii) The provisions of Section 5(a)(i) and 5(a)(ii) to the contrary
notwithstanding, no benefit will be payable hereunder due to an Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service because of the sale to a third party or spin-off of a division (or other operating assets) of a Participating Company or to termination
of the Eligible Employee’s employer’s status as a Participating Company upon the sale to a third party or spin-off of a designated subsidiary where such sale or spin-off is a change in the ownership or effective control the Corporation or
a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Corporation as defined in the regulations promulgated under Section 409A of the Code, if (A) (I) the Eligible Employee is employed by the purchaser of such
division, assets, or subsidiary or such other spun-off entity or (II) such purchaser or spun-off entity is contractually obligated to offer the Eligible Employee the same or a better job and (B) such purchaser of spun-off entity is
contractually obligated to maintain a plan which in all material respects is equivalent to the Program, providing for continuing coverage of the Eligible Employee for two (2) years following the sale or spin-off of such division, assets or
subsidiary.

 SECTION 6. TIME AND FORM OF BENEFIT. 
 (a) Time of Benefit. Except as provided in Sections 4(b) and 6(b), distributions made to Eligible Employees will commence on the first payroll pay
date following the Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Program, a
distribution made to Eligible Employee who is identified as a Key Employee at the time of his or her Separation from Service will be delayed for a minimum of six months if the Eligible Employee’s distribution is triggered by his or her
Separation from Service. Any payment that otherwise would have been made except for the application of this Section 6(a) during such six-month period will be made in one lump sum payment not later than the last day of the second month following
the month that is six months from the date the Eligible Employee Separates from Service. The determination of which Eligible Employees are Key Employees will be made by the Corporation in its sole discretion in accordance with this Section 6(a)
and Sections 416(i) and 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. 
 (c) Form of Benefit. The benefits described in
Section 4(a)(i) shall be paid in monthly installments over a period not to exceed twelve (12) months from the date the Eligible Employee Separates from Service pursuant to Section 4, as determined by the Corporation. The benefit
described in Section 4(a)(ii) shall be paid in a lump sum. The benefits described in Sections 4(b)(i), (ii), (v) and (vi) shall be paid in a lump sum. 
 SECTION 7. EFFECT OF DEATH OF EMPLOYEE. 
 Should an Eligible Employee die after Separation from Service but while participating in the Program and prior to the payment of the entire benefit due hereunder, the balance of the benefit payable under the Program
shall be paid in a lump sum to the estate of the 

  

 22 

 
Eligible Employee. Continued medical and dental coverage as provided in Section 4(a)(iv) and Section 4(b)(iv), as applicable, shall be available to
the Eligible Employee’s surviving spouse only if and to the extent that such coverage would have been available to such surviving spouse if the Eligible Employee had died as an active salaried employee of a Participating Company. Such coverage
shall be determined under the terms of the applicable plan as in effect on the earlier of (i) the date the Eligible Employee Separated from Service or (ii) the date of the Change of Control or the material change described in
Section 5(a)(iv), if applicable. 
 SECTION 8. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. 
 The Committee reserves the right to amend or terminate the Program at any time and to increase or decrease the amount of any benefit provided under the
Program; provided, however, that any individual who has qualified as an Eligible Employee may become entitled to any Change of Control Benefit under Section 4(b), the Program cannot be terminated or amended to reduce any benefit provided under
Section 4(b) or make any condition pertaining to qualification for the Change of Control Benefit under Section 4(b) materially more restrictive. Once an individual has qualified as an Eligible Employee, the Program may not be amended to
cause such individual to cease to qualify as an Eligible Employee for purposes of determining that individual’s eligibility for the Change of Control Benefit under Section 4(b). Notwithstanding any other provision of the Program, following
a Change of Control this Section 8 may not be amended for a period of three (3) years. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Vice
President, Human Resources of the Corporation shall have the power and authority to amend the Plan with respect to any amendment that (i) does not materially increase the cost of the Plan to the Company or (ii) is 

  

 23 

 
required to comply with new or changed legal requirements applicable to the Plan, including, but not limited to, section 409A of the Code. 
 SECTION 9. CLAIMS PROCEDURE. 
 (a) Claims. All applications for benefits and all inquiries concerning claims under the program shall be submitted to the Corporation addressed as follows: “Potlatch Forest Products Corporation, Plan
Administrator under the Potlatch Corporation Severance Program for Executive Employees, 601 West Riverside Avenue, Suite 1100, Spokane, Washington 99201.” 
 (b) Denial Of Claims. In the event that any application for benefits under the Program is denied in whole or in part, the Corporation shall notify the applicant in writing of such denial and shall advise the
applicant of the right to a review thereof. Such written notice shall set forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant, specific reasons for such denial, specific references to the provisions of the Program on which such denial is
based, a description of any information or material necessary for the applicant to perfect his or her application, an explanation of why such material is necessary and an explanation of the Program’s review procedure and the time limits
applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the applicant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA following a denial on review of the claim, as described in Section 10. Such written notice shall be given
to the applicant within ninety (90) days after the Corporation receives the application, unless special circumstances require an extension of time up to an additional ninety (90) days for processing the application. If such an extension of
time for processing is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the applicant prior to the termination of the initial ninety (90) day period. This notice of extension shall indicate the special circumstances requiring the

  

 24 

 
extension of time and the date by which the Corporation expects to render its decision on the application for benefits. 
 SECTION 10. REVIEW PROCEDURE. 
 (a) Appointment Of Review Panel. The Corporation shall appoint a Review Panel which shall consist of three (3) or more individuals who may (but need not) be employees of the Corporation; provided, however,
that at all times following a Change of Control the Review Panel shall consist of at least three current (as of the effective date of the Change of Control) or former Corporation officers and directors. The Review Panel shall be the named fiduciary
which shall have authority to act with respect to appeals from denials of benefits under the Program. 
 (b) Right To Appeal. Any
person whose application for benefits is denied (or is deemed denied) in whole or in part (or such person’s authorized representative) may appeal from the denial by submitting to the Review Panel a written request for review of the application
within sixty (60) days after receiving written notice from the Corporation of the denial. The Corporation shall give the applicant (or the applicant’s representative) an opportunity to review pertinent documents in preparing such request
for review. 
 (c) Form Of Request For Review. The request for review must be in writing and shall be addressed as follows:
“Review Panel under the Potlatch Forest Products Corporation Severance Program for Executive Employees, 601 West Riverside Avenue, Suite 1100, Spokane, Washington 99201.” The request for review shall set forth all of the grounds upon which
it is based, all facts in support thereof, and any other matters which the applicant deems pertinent. The Review Panel may require the applicant to submit such additional facts, documents or other material as the Review Panel may deem necessary or
appropriate in making its review. 
  

 25 

 (d) Time For Review Panel Action. The Review Panel shall act upon each request for review within
sixty (60) days after receipt thereof unless special circumstances require an extension of time of up to an additional sixty (60) days for processing the request for review. If such an extension of time for review is required, written
notice of the extension shall be furnished to the applicant prior to the end of the initial sixty (60) day period. 
 (e) Review
Panel Decision. Within the time prescribed in Section 10(d), the Review Panel shall give written notice of its decision to the applicant and to the Corporation. In the event the Review Panel confirms the denial of the application for
benefits in whole or in part, such notice shall set forth, in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant, the specific reasons for such denial, specific references to the provisions of the Program on which the decision was based, a
statement that the applicant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to his or her claim, and a statement of the applicant’s right to
bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA. In the event that the Review Panel determines that the application for benefits should not have been denied in whole or in part, the Corporation shall take appropriate remedial action as soon as
reasonably practicable after receiving notice of the Review Panel’s decision. 
 (f) Section 5(a)(iv) Dispute. In the event
that a dispute involving the application or interpretation of Section 5(a)(iv) is referred to the Review Panel as provided therein, the Review Panel shall treat such dispute as an appeal from the denial of a claim for benefits under this
Program that is subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 10. 
  

 26 

 (g) Rules And Procedures. The Review Panel shall establish such rules and procedures, consistent
with the Program and with ERISA, as it may deem necessary or appropriate in carrying out its responsibilities under this Section 10. The Review Panel may require an applicant who wishes to submit additional information in connection with an
appeal from the denial of benefits in whole or in part to do so at the applicant’s own expense. 
 (h) Exhaustion of Remedies. No
legal action for benefits under the Program may be brought until the claimant (i) has submitted a written application for benefits in accordance with the procedures described in Section 9, (ii) has been notified by the Corporation
that the application is denied, (iii) has filed a written request for review of the application in accordance with the appeal procedures described in Section 10, and (iv) has been notified that the Review Panel has denied the appeal.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation or the Review Panel does not respond to an Eligible Employee’s claim or appeal within the relevant time limits specified in Sections 9 and 10, the Eligible Employee may bring legal action for
benefits under the Program pursuant to section 502(a) of ERISA. 
 SECTION 11. RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES INVOLVING
SECTION 5. 
 (a) Arbitration Of Section 5 Dispute. Any dispute, controversy or question arising under Section 5 which is
not resolved by the decision of the Review Panel (or which the Eligible Employee requests be submitted directly to arbitration as provided herein) shall be referred for decision by an arbitrator selected by the parties. The proceeding shall be
governed by the Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect or such rules last in effect (in the event such Association is no longer in existence). If the parties are unable to agree upon such an Arbitrator within thirty
(30) days after either party has given the other party written notice of its desire to submit the dispute, controversy or question for decision as aforesaid, then either 

  

 27 

 
party may apply to the American Arbitration Association for the appointment of an arbitrator or, if such Association is not then in existence or does not
desire to act in the matter, either party may apply to the Presiding Judge of the Superior Court of the City and County of Spokane, State of Washington, for the appointment of an arbitrator to hear the parties and settle the dispute, controversy or
question, and such Judge is authorized to make such appointment pursuant to the Program. The arbitration shall take place at the location mutually agreed to by the parties or, if the parties are unable to agree upon the location, at the location
designated by the Arbitrator. The compensation and expenses of the Arbitrator shall be borne by the Corporation, unless the Arbitrator determines that an Eligible Employee acted willfully and maliciously in connection with his or her claim for
benefits under the Program, in which case the Arbitrator shall direct the Eligible Employee to pay all or a portion of the compensation and expenses of the Arbitrator. 
 (b) Arbitration Exclusive Remedy. Arbitration shall be the exclusive remedy for the settlement of disputes involving the application or interpretation of Section 5. The decision of the Arbitrator shall be
final, conclusive and binding on all interested persons and no action at law or in equity involving the application or interpretation of Section 5 shall be instituted other than to enforce the award of the Arbitrator. 
 SECTION 12. BASIS OF PAYMENTS TO AND FROM PROGRAM. 
 All benefits under the Program shall be paid by the Corporation. The Program shall be unfunded and benefits hereunder shall be paid only from the general
assets of the Corporation. Nothing contained in the Program shall be deemed to create a trust of any kind for the benefit of Eligible Employees, or create any fiduciary relationship between the Corporation and the Eligible Employees with respect to
any assets of the Corporation. The Corporation is under no obligation to fund the benefits provided herein prior to payment, although it may do so 

  

 28 

 
if it chooses. Any assets which the Corporation chooses to use for advance funding shall not cause the Program to be a funded plan within the meaning of
ERISA. 
 SECTION 13. NO EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS. 
 Nothing in the Program shall be deemed to give any individual the right to remain in the employ of a Participating Company or a subsidiary or to limit in
any way the right of a Participating Company or a subsidiary to terminate an individual’s employment, which right is hereby reserved. 
 SECTION 14. NON-ALIENATION OF BENEFITS. 
 No benefit payable under the Program shall be subject
to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any attempt to do so shall be void. 
 SECTION 15. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. 
 The Program shall be binding on the Corporation, its successors and assigns, and
any parent corporation of the Corporation’s successors or assigns. Notwithstanding that the Program may be binding upon a successor or assign by operation of law, the Corporation shall require any successor or assign to expressly assume and
agree to be bound by the Program in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be if no succession or assignment had taken place. 
 SECTION 16. NOTICES. 
 All notices pertaining to the Program shall be in writing and shall be
deemed given if delivered by hand or mailed with postage prepaid and addressed, in the case of the Corporation to the address set forth in Section 9(a), attention of its Secretary, and the case of the Eligible Employee to his or her last known
address as reflected in the records of the Corporation.
