 (c) Agreed Currency Calculations. For purposes of determining the Dollar Amount of the outstanding Revolving
Loans, or any other amount as a result of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuation, the Agent shall determine the Exchange Rate as of the applicable Exchange Rate Date with respect to each Agreed Currency in which any requested or outstanding
Advance is denominated and shall apply such Exchange Rates to determine such amount (in each case after giving effect to any Advances to be made or repaid and any Facility LCs to be issued or Modified, to the extent practicable on or prior to the

 2.2. Term Loans. 
 (a) Commitment. Each Term Loan Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, (a) on the Closing Date, to
make a term loan, in Dollars, to the Company in an amount equal to such Term Loan Lender’s respective Initial Term Loan Commitment (each individually, an “Initial Term Loan” and, collectively, the “Initial Term Loans”), and

Commitment as in effect on such 

  

 29 

 
date. The Initial Term Loan Commitment of each Term Loan Lender shall expire on the Closing Date. The Incremental Term Loan Commitment of each Term Loan
Lender shall expire on the Borrowing Date designated for such Incremental Term Loan in accordance with Section 2.2(b). 
 (b)
Incremental Term Loans. At any time after the Closing Date, but not more than twice, the Company may request that the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment be increased from zero in order to accommodate an incremental single-draw installment of Term
Loans (each, an “Incremental Term Loan”) solely with the consent of each Lender participating in such Incremental Term Loan; provided, however, that without the prior written consent of each Lender, the aggregate initial principal amount
of all Incremental Term Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.2(b), together with the aggregate amount of all increases in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to Section 2.5(c), shall not exceed $100,000,000. Each such request

shall be given the opportunity to participate in the requested Incremental Term Loan in proportion to their respective then current Term Loan Pro Rata Shares thereof. On or prior to the date that is fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of
the Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice, each Term Loan Lender shall submit to the Agent a notice indicating the maximum amount by which it is willing to assume an Incremental Term Loan Commitment in connection with such Term Loan Commitment
Increase Notice (any such notice to the Agent being herein a “Term Loan Lender Increase Notice”). Any Term Loan Lender which does not submit a Term Loan Lender Increase Notice to the Agent prior to the expiration of such fifteen
(15) Business Day period shall be deemed to have denied an Incremental Term Loan Commitment. In the event that the Incremental Term Loan Commitments set forth in the Term Loan Lender Increase Notices exceed the amount requested by the Company

Company’s Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice. In the event that the Term Loan Lender Increase Notices are less than the amount requested by the Company, not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date the
Company may notify the Agent of any financial institution that shall have agreed to become a “Term Loan Lender” party hereto (a “Proposed New Term Loan Lender”) in connection with the Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice. Any
Proposed New Term Loan Lender shall be subject to the consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If the Company shall not have arranged any Proposed New Term Loan Lender(s) to commit to the shortfall from the
Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice, then the Company shall be deemed to have reduced the amount of its Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice to the aggregate amount set forth in the Term Loan Lender Increase Notices. Based upon the Term Loan
Commitment Increase Notice, any allocations made in connection therewith and any notice regarding any Proposed New Term Loan Lender, if applicable, the Agent shall notify the Company and all of the Lenders (including the Revolving Lenders) on or
before the Business 

  

 30 

 
Day immediately prior to the proposed effective date of the amount of each Term Loan Lender’s and Proposed New Term Loan Lender’s incremental Term
Loan Commitment (the “Effective Term Loan Commitment Amount”) and the aggregate amount of the Incremental Term Loans, which amounts shall be effective on the following Business Day (which shall also be the Borrowing Date for such
Incremental Term Loan). Without limiting the provisions of Section 4.3, any increase in the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment and the concurrent funding of any Incremental Term Loans shall be subject to the following conditions precedent:
(I) as of the date of the Term Loan Commitment Increase Notice and as of the proposed effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment all representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as
though made on such date (except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct on and as of such earlier date) and no
event shall have occurred and then be continuing which constitutes a Default or Unmatured Default, (II) the Borrowers, the Agent and each Proposed New Term Loan Lender or Term Loan Lender that shall have agreed to provide a “Term Loan
Commitment” in support of such Incremental Term Loan shall have executed and delivered a Commitment and Acceptance, (III) counsel for the Borrowers and for the Guarantors shall have provided to the Agent supplemental opinions in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and (IV) the Borrowers and each Proposed New Term Loan Lender shall otherwise have executed and delivered such other instruments and documents as may be required under Article IV or that the Agent shall
have reasonably requested in connection with such increase. If any fee shall be charged by the Term Loan Lenders in connection with any such increase, such fee shall be in accordance with then prevailing market conditions, which market conditions
shall have been reasonably documented by the Agent to the Company. No less than two (2) Business Days prior to the effective date of the increase of the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment, the Agent shall notify the Company of the amount of the fee
to be charged by the Term Loan Lenders, and the Company may, at least one (1) Business Day prior to such effective date, cancel its request for the commitment increase. If the commitment increase is cancelled pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence, the Company’s cancelled increase request shall not be counted towards the Company’s two Incremental Term Loan requests permitted by the first sentence of this Section 2.2(b). Upon satisfaction of the conditions
precedent to any increase in the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment, the Agent shall promptly advise the Company and each Lender (including the Revolving Lenders) of the effective date of such increase. Upon the effective date of any increase in the
Aggregate Term Loan Commitment that is supported by a Proposed New Term Loan Lender, such Proposed New Term Loan Lender shall be a party to this Agreement as a Term Loan Lender and shall have the rights and obligations of a Term Loan Lender
hereunder. Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Term Loan Lender to increase its Term Loan Commitment hereunder at any time. Each Incremental Term Loan shall mature on the Revolving
Loan Termination Date and shall amortize pursuant to paragraph (c)(i) below in installments proportionate to the then remaining installments of the Initial Term Loans.

(10th) Business Day after the Borrowing Date for such Swing Line Loan. In addition, the Swing Line Lender (i) may at any time in its sole discretion with respect to any outstanding Swing Line Loan, or (ii) shall on the tenth
(10th) Business Day after the Borrowing Date of any Swing Line Loan, by notice to the Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago Time) on any Business Day, require each Revolving Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) to make a Revolving Loan
in Dollars in the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan (including, without limitation, any interest accrued and unpaid thereon), for the purpose of repaying such Swing Line Loan. Promptly upon
receipt of such notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made by such Revolving Lender in connection with such Swing Line Loan. Not later than noon
(Chicago time) on the date of any notice received pursuant to this Section 2.4.4, each Revolving Lender shall make available its required Revolving Loan, in funds immediately available in Chicago to the Agent at its address specified pursuant
to Article XIII. Revolving Loans made 

  

 33 

 
pursuant to this Section 2.4.4 shall initially be Floating Rate Loans and thereafter may be continued as Floating Rate Loans or converted into
Eurocurrency Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.9 and subject to the other conditions and limitations set forth in this Article II. Unless a Revolving Lender shall have notified the Swing Line Lender, prior to its making any Swing Line
Loan, that any applicable condition precedent set forth in Sections 4.1 or 4.3 had not then been satisfied, such Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.4.4 to repay Swing Line Loans shall be unconditional,
continuing, irrevocable and absolute and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against the Agent, the
Swing Line Lender or any other Person, (b) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default, (c) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company, or (d) any other circumstances, happening or
event whatsoever. In the event that any Revolving Lender fails to make payment to the Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.4.4, the Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the principal and interest
otherwise payable to such Revolving Lender hereunder until the Agent receives such payment from such Revolving Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied. In addition to the foregoing, if for any reason any Lender fails to make payment
to the Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.4.4, such Revolving Lender shall be deemed, at the option of the Agent, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided
interest and participation in the applicable Swing Line Loan in the amount of such Revolving Loan, and such interest and participation may be recovered from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for
each day during the period commencing on the date of demand and ending on the date such amount is received. On the Revolving Loan Termination Date, the Company shall repay in full the outstanding principal balance of the Swing Line Loans.

 2.5. Commitment Fee; Reduction/Increase in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. 
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Company agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender according to its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share
a commitment fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Fee Rate on the average daily Available Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment from the Closing Date to and including the Revolving Loan Termination Date, payable on each Payment Date
hereafter and on the Revolving Loan Termination Date. Swing Line Loans shall not count as usage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment for the purpose of calculating the commitment fee due hereunder. 
 (b) Reduction in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. The Borrowers may permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment in whole, or in
part ratably among the Revolving Lenders in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to the Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any
such reduction, provided, however, that the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment may not be reduced below the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure. All accrued commitment fees shall be payable on the effective
date of any termination of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to make Credit Extensions hereunder. 
  

 34 

 (c) Increase in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. (i) At any time, but not more than
twice, the Company may request that the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment be increased solely with the consent of each Lender participating in such increase; provided, however, that without the prior written consent of each Lender, the aggregate
amount of all increases in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.5(c), together with the aggregate initial principal amount of all Incremental Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.2(b), shall not exceed
$100,000,000. Each such request shall be in a minimum amount of at least $10,000,000 and increments of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. Each request shall be made in a written notice given to the Agent and the Revolving Lenders by the Company not less
than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date of such increase, which notice (a “Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice”) shall specify the amount of the proposed increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment and the proposed effective date of such increase. In the event of such a Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice, each of the Revolving Lenders shall be given the opportunity to participate in the requested increase ratably in the
proportions that their respective Revolving Loan Commitments bear to the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment under this Agreement. On or prior to the date that is fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of the Revolving Loan Commitment
Increase Notice, each Lender shall submit to the Agent a notice indicating the maximum amount by which it is willing to increase its Revolving Loan Commitment in connection with such Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice (any such notice to the
Agent being herein a “Revolving Lender Increase Notice”). Any Revolving Lender which does not submit a Revolving Lender Increase Notice to the Agent prior to the expiration of such fifteen (15) Business Day period shall be deemed to
have denied any increase in its Revolving Loan Commitment. In the event that the increases of Revolving Loan Commitments set forth in the Revolving Lender Increase Notices exceed the amount requested by the Company in the Revolving Loan Commitment
Increase Notice, the Agent and the Arranger for the Revolving Loan Facility shall have the right, with the consent of the Company, to allocate the amount of increases necessary to meet the Company’s Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice. In
the event that the Revolving Lender Increase Notices are less than the amount requested by the Company, not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date the Company may notify the Agent of any financial institution
that shall have agreed to become a “Revolving Lender” party hereto (a “Proposed New Revolving Lender”) in connection with the Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice. Any Proposed New Revolving Lender shall be subject to the
consent of the Agent and JPMorgan in its capacity as LC Issuer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If the Company shall not have arranged any Proposed New Revolving Lender(s) to commit to the shortfall from the Revolving
Lender Increase Notices, then the Company shall be deemed to have reduced the amount of its Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice to the aggregate amount set forth in the Revolving Lender Increase Notices. Based upon the Revolving Lender
Increase Notices, any allocations made in connection therewith and any notice regarding any Proposed New Revolving Lender, if applicable, the Agent shall notify the Company and all of the Lenders (including the Term Loan Lenders) on or before the
Business Day immediately prior to the proposed effective date of the amount of each Revolving Lender’s and Proposed New Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment (the “Effective Revolving Commitment Amount”) and the amount of
the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, which amounts shall be effective on the 

  

 35 

 
following Business Day. Any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be subject to the following conditions precedent: (I) as of the
date of the Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice and as of the proposed effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment all representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as though
made on such date (except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct on and as of such earlier date) and no event
shall have occurred and then be continuing which constitutes a Default or Unmatured Default, (II) the Borrowers, the Agent, JPMorgan in its capacity as LC Issuer, and each Proposed New Revolving Lender or Revolving Lender that shall have agreed to
provide a “Revolving Loan Commitment” in support of such increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall have executed and delivered a Commitment and Acceptance, (III) counsel for the Borrowers and for the Guarantors shall have
provided to the Agent supplemental opinions in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and (IV) the Borrowers and each Proposed New Revolving Lender shall otherwise have executed and delivered such other instruments and documents as
may be required under Article IV or that the Agent shall have reasonably requested in connection with such increase. If any fee shall be charged by the Lenders in connection with any such increase, such fee shall be in accordance with then
prevailing market conditions, which market conditions shall have been reasonably documented by the Agent to the Company. No less than two (2) Business Days prior to the effective date of the increase of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment,
the Agent shall notify the Company of the amount of the fee to be charged by the Revolving Lenders, and the Company may, at least one (1) Business Day prior to such effective date, cancel its request for the commitment increase. If the
commitment increase is cancelled pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Company’s cancelled increase request shall not be counted towards the Company’s two increase requests permitted by the first sentence of this
Section 2.5(c). Upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent to any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, the Agent shall promptly advise the Company and each Lender (including the Term Loan Lenders) of the effective date of
such increase. Upon the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment that is supported by a Proposed New Revolving Lender, such Proposed New Revolving Lender shall be a party to this Agreement as a Revolving Lender and
shall have the rights and obligations of a Revolving Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Revolving Lender to increase its Revolving Loan Commitment hereunder at
any time. 
 (ii) For purposes of this clause (ii), (A) the term “Buying Lender(s)” shall mean (1) each Revolving Lender
the Effective Revolving Commitment Amount of which is greater than its Revolving Loan Commitment prior to the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and (2) each Proposed New Revolving Lender that is allocated
an Effective Revolving Commitment Amount in connection with any Revolving Loan Commitment Increase Notice and (B) the term “Selling Lender(s)” shall mean each Revolving Lender whose Revolving Loan Commitment is not being increased
from that in effect prior to such increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. Effective on the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to clause (i) above, each Selling Lender hereby sells,
grants, assigns and conveys to each Buying Lender, without recourse, warranty, or representation of any kind, except as specifically provided herein, an undivided percentage in such Selling Lender’s right, title and interest in and to its
outstanding Revolving Loans in the respective amounts and percentages 

  

 36 

 
necessary so that, from and after such sale, each such Selling Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans shall equal such Selling Lender’s Revolving
Loan Pro Rata Share (calculated based upon the Effective Revolving Commitment Amounts) of the outstanding Revolving Loans of each Borrower in each Agreed Currency. Effective on the effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment pursuant to clause (i) above, each Buying Lender hereby purchases and accepts such grant, assignment and conveyance from the Selling Lenders. Each Buying Lender hereby agrees that its respective purchase price for the portion of the
outstanding Revolving Loans purchased hereby shall equal the respective amount of each Agreed Currency necessary so that, from and after such payments, each Buying Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans shall equal such Buying Lender’s
Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share (calculated based upon the Effective Revolving Commitment Amounts) of the outstanding Revolving Loans of each Borrower in each Agreed Currency. Such amounts shall be payable on the effective date of the increase in the
Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Agent. The Agent, in turn, shall wire transfer any such funds received to the Selling Lenders, in same day funds, for the sole account of the Selling Lenders.
Each Selling Lender hereby represents and warrants to each Buying Lender that such Selling Lender owns the Revolving Loans being sold and assigned hereby for its own account and has not sold, transferred or encumbered any or all of its interest in
such Revolving Loans, except for participations which will be extinguished upon payment to Selling Lender of an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans being sold by such Selling Lender. Each Buying Lender hereby acknowledges
and agrees that, except for each Selling Lender’s representations and warranties contained in the foregoing sentence, each such Buying Lender has entered into its Commitment and Acceptance with respect to such increase on the basis of its own
independent investigation and has not relied upon, and will not rely upon, any explicit or implicit written or oral representation, warranty or other statement of the Lenders or the Agent concerning the authorization, execution, legality, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The Borrowers hereby agree to compensate each Selling Lender for all losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by each Revolving Lender in
connection with the sale and assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan hereunder on the terms and in the manner as set forth in Section 3.4. 
 2.6. Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $2,000,000 or the Approximate Equivalent Amount of any Agreed Currency other than Dollars (and in multiples of $1,000,000 or the Approximate
Equivalent Amount of any Agreed Currency other than Dollars if in excess thereof), and each Floating Rate Advance (other than an Advance to repay Swing Line Loans) shall be in the minimum amount of $250,000 (and in multiples of $250,000 if in excess
thereof), provided, however, that any Floating Rate Advance of Revolving Loans may be in the amount of the Available Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. In addition, the Borrowers shall select Eurocurrency Interest Periods under Sections 2.9
and 2.10 so that no more than ten (10) Interest Periods shall be outstanding at any one time. The initial Revolving Loan from any Lender or Affiliate to each Dutch Borrower shall at all times be at least €50,000 (or its equivalent in
another Agreed Currency). 
  

 37 

 2.7. Prepayments; Termination. 
 (a) Optional Principal Payments. The Borrowers may from time to time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Floating Rate Advances (other
than Swing Line Loans), or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $250,000 or any integral multiple of $250,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) with notice to the Agent by 10:00 a.m.
(Chicago time) on the date of repayment. The Company may at any time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Swing Line Loans, or, in a minimum amount of $100,000 and increments of $50,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding
Swing Line Loans, with notice to the Agent and the Swing Line Lender by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of repayment. The Borrowers may from time to time pay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by
Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Eurocurrency Advances, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $2,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency Advances
upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent. 
 (b) Mandatory Prepayments/Reductions in Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment. 
  

	 	(i)	Generally. If at any time, other than solely as a result of currency rate fluctuations, (A) the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure
exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, (B) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Eurocurrency Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars exceeds the Maximum Foreign Currency Amount or (C) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all
Revolving Loans made to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers exceeds the Maximum Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Amount, the Borrowers, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, shall immediately prepay Revolving Loans (to be applied to such
Revolving Loans as the applicable Borrower shall direct at the time of such payment) in an aggregate amount such that after giving effect thereto (x) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure is less than or equal to the Aggregate
Revolving Loan Commitment, (y) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Eurocurrency Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars is less than or equal to the Maximum Foreign Currency Amount, and (z) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Revolving
Loans made to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers is less than or equal to the Maximum Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Amount. 

  

	 	(ii)	 Currency Fluctuations. If at any time solely as a result of currency rate fluctuations (A) the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving
Credit Exposure exceeds 105% of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, (B) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Eurocurrency Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars exceeds 105% of the Maximum Foreign Currency Amount or (C) the
aggregate Dollar Amount of all Revolving Loans made to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers exceeds 105% of the Maximum Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Amount, the Borrowers, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, shall within five
(5) Business Days of such occurrence prepay Revolving Loans 

  

 38 

	 	 
(to be applied to such Revolving Loans as the applicable Borrower shall direct at the time of such payment) in an aggregate amount such that after giving
effect thereto (x) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure is less than or equal to the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, (y) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Eurocurrency Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars is
less than or equal to the Maximum Foreign Currency Amount, and (z) the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Revolving Loans made to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers is less than or equal to the Maximum Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Amount.

  

	 	(iii)	 Asset Sale. Not later than the third Business Day following receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Borrowers shall prepay outstanding Loans
in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received with respect thereto (subject to the provisions regarding application of prepayments set forth below), provided that no such prepayment shall be required hereunder unless, and only
to that extent that, the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Sale exceed $1,000,000. Amounts to be applied pursuant to this Section 2.7(b)(iii) shall be applied first to the Term Loans (ratably to the Initial Term Loans and the
Incremental Term Loans, in each case, in accordance with the principal amounts thereof), with such prepayment applied ratably to reduce all remaining outstanding installments thereof, second to Swing Line Loans, third to Revolving
Loans that are Floating Rate Loans and fourth to Revolving Loans that are Eurocurrency Loans, in each case, together with accrued interest on the Loans being prepaid. All prepayments required by this Section 2.7(b)(iii) shall be subject
to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4, but without penalty or premium. On each date on which a prepayment of Revolving Loans under this Section 2.7(b)(iii) is required, or would be required but for
the fact that no Revolving Loans are then outstanding: (A) the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be reduced, ratably among the Revolving Lenders, in an amount equal to the total amount of the required prepayment, regardless of whether
sufficient Revolving Loans are outstanding for such amount to be applied as a prepayment; provided, that (1) no such reduction shall be required in connection with any Asset Sale permitted pursuant to clause (xiii) of Section 6.13 and
(2) such reduction shall be required only to the extent the amount of such required prepayment, in the aggregate with all other required prepayments pursuant to this paragraph (iii) since the First Amendment Effective Date (other than
required prepayments described in the foregoing clause (1)), exceeds $25,000,000, (B) if, after giving effect the reduction required pursuant to clause (A) above, the aggregate undrawn stated amount under all Facility LCs outstanding at
such time exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, the Company shall pay to the Agent an amount equal to such excess, which funds shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral Account for so long as such excess shall exist, subject to
Section 8.1 in the event that a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and (C) the Company shall deliver to the Agent a certificate signed by a Financial Officer setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of
such prepayment and/or reduction in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Default has occurred and is then continuing and at the Company’s option, the Agent shall hold all prepayments pursuant to

  

 39 

	 	 
this clause (iii) to be applied to Eurocurrency Loans in escrow for the benefit of the Lenders and (x) the Agent shall release such amounts upon
the earlier of (1) thirty days after the date of such prepayment (provided that the Borrowers shall make all payments under Section 3.4 resulting therefrom) and (2) expiration of the Interest Periods applicable to any such
Eurocurrency Loans being prepaid, (y) interest shall continue to accrue on such Eurocurrency Loans until such time as such prepayments are released from escrow and applied to reduce such Eurocurrency Loans and (z) the aggregate outstanding
principal balance of the Eurocurrency Loans to prepaid upon such release from escrow shall not be included in any calculation of Consolidated Indebtedness from and after the date such funds are placed in escrow; provided, however, that upon the
occurrence and continuance of a Default, such escrowed amounts may be applied to Eurocurrency Loans without regard to the expiration of any Interest Period and the Borrowers shall make all payments under Section 3.4 resulting therefrom.

  

	 	(iv)	Equity Issuance. In the event the Company or any Subsidiary receives any cash proceeds from the issuance or sale by the Company or any Subsidiary of any Equity Interests
(other than issuances of Equity Interests to the Company or any Subsidiary), the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s receipt of such cash proceeds, prepay outstanding Term Loans in an
aggregate amount equal to 100% of such cash proceeds (net of all reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses paid by the Company and its Subsidiaries to third parties (other than Affiliates) in connection therewith) until the outstanding Term Loans
(and all accrued interest thereon) have been repaid in full. Amounts to be applied pursuant to this Section 2.7(b)(iv) shall be applied to the Term Loans (ratably to the Initial Term Loans and the Incremental Term Loans, in each case, in
accordance with the principal amounts thereof), with such prepayment applied ratably to reduce all remaining outstanding installments thereof, together with accrued interest on the Term Loans being prepaid. 

 (c) Termination. Notwithstanding the termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments or the Term Loan Commitments hereunder or the occurrence of the
Revolving Loan Termination Date, until all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been indefeasibly and fully paid and satisfied in cash and all financing arrangements between the Borrowers and the Lenders
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been terminated, all of the rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive. 
 2.8. Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for New Advances; Funding of Advances. The applicable Borrower, or the Company on its behalf, shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each
Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto from time to time. The applicable Borrower, or the Company on its behalf, shall give the Agent irrevocable notice (a “Borrowing Notice”) by (x) e-mail, telephone or
telecopy, if with respect to an Advance denominated in Dollars and (y) telecopy, if with respect to an Advance denominated in euros or Pounds Sterling, not later than (i) 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Borrowing Date of each Floating
Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan), (ii) 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) three Business Days before the 

  

 40 

 
Borrowing Date for each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars and (iii) 10:00 a.m. (London time) three Business Days before the Borrowing Date for
each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, specifying: 
  

	 	(i)	the applicable Borrower with respect to such Advance, 

  

	 	(ii)	the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such Advance, 

  

	 	(iii)	the aggregate amount of such Advance and whether such Advance consists of Revolving Loans or Term Loans, 

  

	 	(iv)	the Type of Advance selected, 

  

	 	(v)	in the case of each Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency applicable thereto, and 

  

	 	(vi)	the location and number of the account of such Borrower to which funds are to be disbursed. 

 Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Notice in accordance with this Section, the Agent shall advise each Revolving Lender of the details thereof and the amount of the Loan to be made by such Lender as part of the
requested Advance. 
 Not later than noon (Chicago time) on each Borrowing Date, each applicable Lender shall make available its Loan or Loans in immediately
available funds in the applicable Agreed Currency in Chicago to the Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII, unless the Agent has notified the Lenders that such Loan is to be made available to the applicable Borrower at the
Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office, in which case each Lender shall make available its Loan or Loans, in funds immediately available to the Agent at its Eurocurrency Payment Office, not later than 1:00 p.m. (local time in the city of the
Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office) in the applicable Agreed Currency. The Agent will make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the applicable Borrower at the Agent’s aforesaid address. 
 Each Lender at its option may make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan (and in the case of an
Affiliate, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 3.1 through 3.6 and 9.6) shall apply to such Affiliate to the same extent as to such Lender); provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the
obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 2.9. Conversion and
Continuation of Outstanding Advances. Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to this
Section 2.9 or are repaid in accordance with Section 2.1, 2.2(c) or 2.7. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall continue as a Eurocurrency Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Eurocurrency
Advance (other than Eurocurrency Advances in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars) shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless (a) such Eurocurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.1, 2.2(c)
or 2.7 or (b) the applicable Borrower, 

  

 41 

 
or the Company on its behalf, shall have given the Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest
Period, such Eurocurrency Advance continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period. Unless a Conversion/Continuation Notice shall have timely been given in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.9, Eurocurrency
Advances in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall automatically continue as Eurocurrency Advances in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one (1) month. Subject to the terms of Section 2.6, the applicable Borrower, or
the Company on its behalf, may elect from time to time to convert all or any part of a Floating Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan) into a Eurocurrency Advance. The applicable Borrower, or the Company on its behalf, shall give the Agent
irrevocable notice (a “Conversion/Continuation Notice”) by (x) e-mail, telephone or telecopy, if with respect to an Advance denominated in Dollars and (y) telecopy, if with respect to an Advance denominated in euros or Pounds
Sterling, of each conversion of a Floating Rate Advance into a Eurocurrency Advance or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least (x) three Business Days prior to the date of the requested
conversion or continuation of an Advance in Dollars and (y) four Business Days prior to the date of the requested continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, specifying: 
  

	 	(i)	the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or continuation, 

  

	 	(ii)	the aggregate amount and Type of the Advance which is to be converted or continued and whether such Advance consists of Revolving Loans or Term Loans, and 

 

	 	(iii)	the amount of such Advance which is to be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Advance and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Eurocurrency Advances in an Agreed Currency may be converted and/or continued as Eurocurrency Advances only in the
same Agreed Currency. 
 2.10. Changes in Interest Rate, etc. Each Floating Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan) shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made or is automatically converted from a Eurocurrency Advance into a Floating Rate Advance pursuant to Section 2.9, to but excluding
the date it is paid or is converted into a Eurocurrency Advance pursuant to Section 2.9 hereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof,
for each day from and including the day such Swing Line Loan is made to but excluding the date it is paid, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a
Floating Rate Advance will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined by the Agent as applicable to such Eurocurrency Advance based upon the applicable Borrower’s selections under Sections 2.8 and 2.9
and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Borrower may select an Interest Period that ends after the Revolving Loan Termination Date. 
  

 42 

 2.11. Rates Applicable After Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Section 2.8, 2.9 or 2.10, during the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Company (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of
Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that no Advance denominated in Dollars may be made as, converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Advance and no Advance denominated in an Agreed
Currency other than Dollars may have an Interest Period longer than one (1) month. During the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Company (which notice may be revoked at the option of the
Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that (i) each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable
Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum, (ii) each Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per
annum, (iii) the LC Fee shall be increased by 2% per annum and (iv) any other amount due and payable hereunder (including interest and fees) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate in effect from time to
time plus 2% per annum, provided that, during the continuance of a Default under Section 7.6 or 7.7, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above and the increase in the LC Fee and other amounts set forth in
clause (iii) and (iv) above shall be applicable to all Credit Extensions without any election or action on the part of the Agent or any Lender. 
 2.12. Method of Payment. All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Agent (i) at the Agent’s address
specified pursuant to Article XIII in immediately available funds with respect to Advances or other Obligations denominated in Dollars and (ii) at the Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office in immediately available funds with respect to any
Advance or other Obligations denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, or at any other Lending Installation of the Agent specified in writing by the Agent to the Borrowers, by noon (local time) on the date when due and shall (except
(i) with respect to repayments of Swing Line Loans, (ii) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations for which the LC Issuer has not been fully indemnified by the Lenders, or (iii) as otherwise specifically required hereunder) be applied
ratably by the Agent among the Lenders. Each Advance shall be repaid or prepaid in the Agreed Currency in which it was made in the amount borrowed and interest payable thereon shall also be paid in such Agreed Currency. Each payment delivered to the
Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Agent received at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice
received by the Agent from such Lender. The Agent is hereby authorized to charge the account of each Borrower maintained with JPMorgan (or its Affiliates) for each payment of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations and fees as it becomes due
hereunder (it being understood and agreed that the Agent shall not charge the account of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower for any payment of principal or interest on Loans made to the Company, or for fees incurred by the Company). Each reference to
the Agent in this Section 2.12 shall also be deemed to refer, and shall apply equally, to the LC Issuer, in the case of payments required to be made by the Company to the LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.19.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section, if, after the 

  

 43 

 
making of any Advance in any currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with
the result that different types of such Agreed Currency (the “New Currency”) are introduced and the type of currency in which the Advance was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the applicable Borrower is not able
to make payment to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by such Borrower hereunder in such currency shall be made to the Agent in such amount and such type of the New Currency or Dollars as
shall be equivalent to the amount of such payment otherwise due hereunder in the Original Currency, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the applicable Borrower take all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange
regulations. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Advance in any currency other than Dollars, any Borrower is not able to make payment to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in the
type of currency in which such Advance was made because of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulation, then such Advance shall instead be repaid when due in Dollars in a principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the
date of repayment) of such Advance. 
 2.13. Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to
such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (b) The Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (a) the amount of each
Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Agreed Currency and Interest Period (if any) with respect thereto, (b) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender
hereunder, (c) the original stated amount of each Facility LC and the amount of LC Obligations outstanding at any time, and (d) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Lender’s share thereof.

 (c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (i) and (ii) above shall be prima facie
evidence (absent manifest error) of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner
affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms. 
 (d) Any Lender may request that its Loans
be evidenced by a promissory note or, in the case of the Swing Line Lender, promissory notes representing its Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans, respectively, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1, with appropriate changes for notes evidencing
Swing Line Loans, or representing its Term Loans substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 (each a “Note”). In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Note or Notes payable to the order of such
Lender in a form supplied by the Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by any such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (prior to any assignment pursuant to Section 12.3) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the
payee named therein, except to the extent that any such Lender subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above. 
  

 44 

 2.14. Telephonic Notices. To the extent specified in Sections 2.8 and 2.9, each Borrower hereby
authorizes the Lenders and the Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be
acting on behalf of such Borrower, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given telephonically. Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to
the Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is requested by the Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice signed by a Financial Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Agent
and the Lenders, the records of the Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error. 
 2.15. Interest Payment Dates; Interest
and Fee Basis. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, on any date on which the Floating Rate Advance is prepaid, whether due to
acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on that portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Floating Rate Advance converted into a Eurocurrency Advance on a day other than a Payment Date shall be payable on the date of
conversion. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Eurocurrency Advance is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest
accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest accrued on all Floating Rate Loans shall be calculated
for actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) on the basis of a year of 365 or, when appropriate, 366 days. All interest accrued on Eurocurrency Loans and all fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of
360 days, except that interest computed with respect to Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be computed on a basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day). Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance or Swing Line Loan is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to noon (local time) at the place of payment. If any payment of
principal of or interest on an Advance, Swing Line Loan, fees or other Obligations shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such
extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with such payment. 
 2.16. Notification of Advances,
Interest Rates, Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice, Swing Line Borrowing Notice,
Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder. Promptly after notice from the LC Issuer, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each request for issuance of a Facility LC hereunder. The Agent will notify
each Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Eurocurrency Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate. The Agent will also provide notices to the
Lenders as and when required by Sections 2.2(b) and 2.5(c). 
  

 45 

 2.17. Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans and its participation in any LC
Obligations and the LC Issuer may book the Facility LCs at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to
any such Lending Installation and the Loans, Facility LCs, participations in LC Obligations and any Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the benefit of any such Lending Installation.
Each Lender and the LC Issuer may, by written notice to the Agent and the Borrowers in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement or additional Lending Installations through which Loans will be made by it or Facility LCs will be issued by
it and for whose account Loan payments or payments with respect to Facility LCs are to be made. 
 2.18. Non-Receipt of Funds by the
Agent. Unless a Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of a
Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make
the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or such Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by
the Agent, repay to the Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Agent until the date the Agent recovers such amount at
a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day for the first three days and, thereafter, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan or (y) in the case of payment by a
Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan. 
 2.19. Facility LCs. 
 2.19.1. Issuance. The LC Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue standby and
commercial Letters of Credit in Dollars (each, together with the Existing Letters of Credit deemed issued hereunder pursuant to Section 2.19.13, a “Facility LC”) and to renew, extend, increase, decrease or otherwise modify each
Facility LC (“Modify,” and each such action a “Modification”), from time to time from and including the Closing Date and prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date upon the request of the Company; provided that
immediately after each such Facility LC is issued or Modified, (i) the aggregate amount of the outstanding LC Obligations shall not exceed $60,000,000 and (ii) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the
Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. No Facility LC shall have an expiry date later than the earlier of (x) the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date and (y) one year after its issuance (or, in the case of any
renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension). 
  

 46 

 2.19.2. Participations. Upon the issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of a
Facility LC in accordance with this Section 2.19, the LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender shall be deemed,
without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the LC Issuer, a participation in such Facility LC (and each Modification thereof) and the related LC Obligations in proportion to its Revolving Loan
Pro Rata Share. 
 2.19.3. Notice. Subject to Section 2.19.1, the Company shall give the LC Issuer notice prior to
10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least five Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of each Facility LC, specifying the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry date of such Facility LC,
and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, the LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent, and the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender,
of the contents thereof and of the amount of each Revolving Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility LC. The issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in
Article IV (the satisfaction of which the LC Issuer shall have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility LC shall be satisfactory to the LC Issuer and that the Company shall have executed and delivered such
application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility LC as the LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Facility LC Application”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of this
Agreement and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control. 
 2.19.4. LC Fees.
The Company shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Pro Rata Shares, with respect to each Facility LC, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the
Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Loans in effect from time to time on the average daily undrawn stated amount under such Facility LC, such fee to be payable in arrears on each Payment Date (the “LC Fee”). The Company shall also pay to
the LC Issuer for its own account (x) at the time of issuance of each Facility LC, a fronting fee equal to 0.125% of the stated amount available for drawing under such Facility LC (or such other amount as the Company and the LC Issuer shall
agree) and (y) documentary and processing charges in connection with the issuance or Modification of and draws under Facility LCs in accordance with the LC Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges as in effect from time to time.

 2.19.5. Administration; Reimbursement by Lenders. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Facility LC of any demand
for payment under such Facility LC, the LC Issuer shall notify the Agent and the Agent shall promptly notify the Company and each other Revolving Lender as to the amount to be paid by the LC Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment
date (the “LC Payment Date”). The responsibility of the LC Issuer to the Company and each Revolving Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC in connection
with such presentment shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Facility LC. The LC Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the 

  

 47 

 
same care in the issuance and administration of the Facility LCs as it does with respect to letters of credit in which no participations are granted, it
being understood that in the absence of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by the LC Issuer, each Revolving Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably liable without regard to the occurrence of any Default or any condition precedent
whatsoever, to reimburse the LC Issuer on demand for (i) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment made by the LC Issuer under each Facility LC to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the
Company pursuant to Section 2.19.6 below, plus (ii) interest on the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Revolving Lender, for each day from the date of the LC Issuer’s demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made
after 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the date on which such Revolving Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it, at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the
first three days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances. 
 2.19.6.
Reimbursement by Company. The Company shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by the LC Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility
LC, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that neither the Company nor any Revolving Lender shall hereby be precluded from asserting any claim for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by the
Company or such Revolving Lender to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC issued by it complied with the
terms of such Facility LC or (ii) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. All such amounts paid by
the LC Issuer and remaining unpaid by the Company shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (x) the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls on or before the
applicable LC Payment Date and (y) the sum of 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls after such LC Payment Date. The LC Issuer will pay to each Revolving Lender ratably in accordance
with its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from the Company for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC issued by the LC Issuer, but only to the extent such
Revolving Lender has made payment to the LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant to Section 2.19.5. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including without limitation the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance
with Section 2.8 and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV), the Company may request an Advance hereunder for the purpose of satisfying any Reimbursement Obligation. 
 2.19.7. Obligations Absolute. The Company’s obligations under this Section 2.19 shall be absolute and unconditional under
any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Company may have or have had against the LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility LC. The Company further agrees with the 

  

 48 

 
LC Issuer and the Lenders that the LC Issuer and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Company’s Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any
Facility LC shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute
between or among the Company, any of its Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Company or of any of its
Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee. The LC Issuer shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in
connection with any Facility LC. The Company agrees that any action taken or omitted by the LC Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Facility LC and the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful
misconduct, shall be binding upon the Company and shall not put the LC Issuer or any Lender under any liability to the Company. Nothing in this Section 2.19.7 is intended to limit the right of the Company to make a claim against the LC Issuer
for damages as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.19.6. 
 2.19.8. Actions of LC
Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Facility LC, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype
message, statement, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts
selected by the LC Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Revolving Lenders as it reasonably deems
appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Revolving Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Section 2.19, the LC Issuer shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Revolving Lenders, and such request and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Revolving Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any Facility LC. 
 2.19.9. Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, the LC Issuer and the Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any
and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, out-of-pocket costs or expenses which such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of
or in connection with the issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Facility LC or any actual or proposed use of any Facility LC, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses, liabilities,
out-of-pocket costs or expenses which the LC Issuer may incur by reason of or in connection with (i) the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to the LC Issuer hereunder (but nothing herein contained shall affect
any rights the Company may have against any defaulting Lender) or (ii) by reason of or on account of the LC Issuer issuing any Facility LC which specifies that the term “Beneficiary” 

  

 49 

 
included therein includes any successor by operation of law of the named Beneficiary, but which Facility LC does not require that any drawing by any such
successor Beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to the LC Issuer, evidencing the appointment of such successor Beneficiary; provided that the Company shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, the LC Issuer or
the Agent for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any
Facility LC complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (y) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. Nothing in
this Section 2.19.9 is intended to limit the obligations of the Company under any other provision of this Agreement. 
 2.19.10. Lenders’ Indemnification. Each Revolving Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share, indemnify the LC Issuer, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees
(to the extent not reimbursed by the Company) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful
misconduct or the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Facility LC) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this
Section 2.19 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder. 
 2.19.11. Facility LC Collateral
Account. The Company agrees that it will, upon the request of the Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders and until the final expiration date of any Facility LC and thereafter as long as any amount is payable to the LC Issuer or the Revolving
Lenders in respect of any Facility LC, maintain a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Agent (the “Facility LC Collateral Account”) at the Agent’s office at the address specified pursuant to Article
XIII, in the name of the Company but under the sole dominion and control of the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and in which the Company shall have no interest other than as set forth in Section 2.7(b) or 8.1. The Company hereby pledges,
assigns and grants to the Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the LC Issuer, a security interest in all of the Company’s right, title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in
the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations. The Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the Facility LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit of
JPMorgan having a maturity not exceeding 30 days. Nothing in this Section 2.19.11 shall either obligate the Agent to require the Company to deposit any funds in the Facility LC Collateral Account or limit the right of the Agent to release any
funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account in each case other than as required by Section 2.7(b) or 8.1. 
 2.19.12. Rights as a Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, the LC Issuer shall have the same rights and obligations as any other Lender. 
  

 50 

 2.19.13. Transitional Letter of Credit Provisions. From and after the Closing
Date, the letters of credit described on Schedule 2.19.13 (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) shall be deemed to constitute Facility LCs issued pursuant to Section 2.19.1 in which the Lenders participate pursuant to
Section 2.19.2. Fees shall accrue in respect of the Existing Letters of Credit as provided in Section 2.19.4 beginning as of the Closing Date. 
 2.20. Replacement of Lender. If a Borrower is required pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.5 or 3.6 to make any additional or increased payment to any Lender, if any Lender’s obligation to make or
continue, or to convert Floating Rate Advances into, Eurocurrency Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.3 or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender (any Lender so affected an “Affected Lender”), the Company may elect,
if such amounts continue to be charged, such suspension is still effective or such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender, to replace such Affected Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that no Default or Unmatured Default shall
have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, and provided further that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Agent and (if such
Affected Lender is a Revolving Lender) JPMorgan in its capacity as LC Issuer shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Advances and other Obligations due to the Affected Lender pursuant to an assignment substantially in the form of
Exhibit C and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Affected Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 12.3 applicable to assignments, and
(ii) the Borrowers shall pay to such Affected Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (A) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender by the Borrowers hereunder to and including the
date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.5 and 3.6, and (B) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement
under Section 3.4 had the Loans of such Affected Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender. 
 2.21.
Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

 (a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 2.5(a); 
 (b) the Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be
included in determining whether all Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 8.2), provided that any
waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; 
  

 51 

 (c) if any Swing Line Loans shall be outstanding or any LC Obligations shall exist at the time a Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 
  

	 	(i)	the Company shall within one Business Day following notice by the Agent (x) first, prepay such outstanding Swing Line Loans and (y) second, cash collateralize such
Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.1 for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; 

  

	 	(ii)	if the Company cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (i) above, the Company shall not be required to pay any fees to
such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.19.4 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; and 

  

	 	(iii)	if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is not cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the LC Issuer or any
Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.19.4 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the LC Issuer until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized; 

 (d) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue or Modify any Facility LC, unless it is satisfied that
the related exposure will be 100% covered by cash collateral provided by the Company in accordance with Section 2.21(c); and 
 (e) any
amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.2 but excluding
Section 2.20) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent
(i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the LC Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder,
(iii) third, to the funding of any Revolving Loan or the funding or cash collateralization of any participating interest in any Swing Line Loan or Facility LC in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as
required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Agent and the Company, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement,
(v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such
Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the
principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of draws under Facility LCs with respect to which the LC Issuer has funded its participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any
Loans, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender. 
  

 52 

 In the event that the Agent, the Company, the LC Issuer and the Swing Line Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender
has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment and on
such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold the Revolving Loans in each Agreed Currency of each Borrower in accordance
with its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share. For purposes of this Section 2.21, (x) “Swing Line Exposure” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender at any time, such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of
the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Loans outstanding at such time and (y) “LC Exposure” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender at any time, such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of the LC
Obligations at such time. 
 Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by any Borrower of any of its rights or remedies
(whether in equity or law) against any Lender which fails to fund any of its Loans hereunder at the time or in the amount required to be funded under the terms of this Agreement. 
 2.22. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder
in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in
accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Agent’s main office in Chicago, Illinois on the Business Day preceding that on which the final, non-appealable judgment is
given. The obligations of the applicable Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the
Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures
purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, such Borrower agrees, to
the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased
exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such
Lender under Section 11.2, such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the applicable Borrower. 
 2.23. Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in Article II with respect to any Advance in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, if there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Advance
any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the 

  

 53 

 
reasonable opinion of the applicable Borrower, the Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders make it impracticable for the Eurocurrency Loans comprising such
Advance to be denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by the applicable Borrower, then the Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to such Borrower and the Revolving Lenders or such Borrower shall give notice thereof to the Revolving Lenders,
as the case may be, and such Eurocurrency Loans shall not be denominated in such currency but shall be made on such Borrowing Date in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in
the related Borrowing Notice, as Floating Rate Loans, unless the applicable Borrower notifies the Agent at least one Business Day before such date that (a) it elects not to borrow on such date or (b) it elects to borrow on such date in a
different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Eurocurrency Loans would in the opinion of the Agent and the Required Revolving Lenders be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount
of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice. 
 2.24. Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. The Company may,
at any time on or prior to May 8, 2009 (or such later date as the Agent shall agree in its sole discretion), add as a party to this Agreement not more than two UK Subsidiaries and not more than two Dutch Subsidiaries as “Foreign Subsidiary
Borrowers” hereunder by (a) the execution and delivery to the Agent of a duly completed Assumption Letter by such Subsidiary, with the written consent of each other Borrower, (b) the execution and delivery to the Agent of such
documents, instruments, opinions and certificates as shall be required in order to permit the Borrowers to be in compliance with Section 16.2 in connection with the joinder of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereto and (c) the execution
and delivery to the Agent of such documents, notices, instruments, opinions, documents of title and certificates as shall be required in order to permit the Borrowers to be in compliance with Section 6.21(d) after giving effect to the joinder
of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereto. Upon such execution, delivery and consent, such Subsidiary shall for all purposes be a party hereto as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower as fully as if it had executed and delivered this Agreement. 

ARTICLE III 
 YIELD
PROTECTION; TAXES 
 3.1. Yield Protection. If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any law or any
governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law), or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency: 
  

	 	(i)	subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to any Taxes (including UK Tax), or changes the basis of taxation of payments (other than with respect to
Excluded Taxes) to any Lender or the LC Issuer in respect of its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or 

  

 54 

	 	(ii)	imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or
credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances), or 

  

	 	(iii)	imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer of making, funding or maintaining its
Eurocurrency Loans, or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer in connection with its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations
therein, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein held or interest or LC Fees received by
it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or the LC Issuer as the case may be, 

 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase
the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, of making or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans, Revolving Loan Commitment or Term Loan Commitment or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs or to
reduce the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, in connection with such Eurocurrency Loans, Revolving Loan Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, Facility LCs or participations therein,
then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, the Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the
case may be, for such increased cost or reduction in amount received. 
 3.2. Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender or
the LC Issuer determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or the LC Issuer, any Lending Installation of such Lender or the LC Issuer, or any corporation controlling such Lender or the LC Issuer is increased
as a result of a Change (as defined below), then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, the applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on
the portion of such increased capital which such Lender or the LC Issuer determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure, its Term Loans or Revolving Loan Commitment or Term Loan Commitment or its commitment
to issue Facility LCs as the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s policies as to capital adequacy). “Change” means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the
Risk-Based Capital Guidelines or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of
this Agreement which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or the LC Issuer or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender or the LC Issuer. “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines”
means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United
States implementing the July 1988 report 

  

 55 

 
of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices Entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital
Standards,” including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement. 
 3.3.
Availability of Types of Advances. If (a) any Lender determines that maintenance of its Eurocurrency Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, whether or not having the
force of law, (b) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurocurrency Base Rate or Eurocurrency Base Rate, as
applicable, for any Eurocurrency Advance for any Interest Period or (c) the Required Lenders determine that the Adjusted Eurocurrency Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Base Rate, as applicable, for any Eurocurrency Advance for any Interest Period
will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Advance for such Interest Period, then the Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurocurrency Advances
and require any affected Eurocurrency Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4. 
 3.4. Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Eurocurrency Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest
Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurocurrency Advance is not made or continued, or a Floating Rate Advance is not converted into a Eurocurrency Advance, on the date specified by the applicable Borrower for any
reason other than default by the Lenders, or a Eurocurrency Advance is not prepaid on the date specified by such Borrower for any reason, such Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including,
without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Eurocurrency Advance. 
 3.5.
Taxes. 
 3.5.1. All payments by the Borrowers to or for the account of any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent
hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any
Lender, the LC Issuer or the Agent, (a) 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 3.5) such Lender, the LC
Issuer or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) such Borrower shall make such deductions, (c) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant authority in accordance with applicable law and (d) such Borrower shall furnish to the Agent the original copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof within 30 days after such payment is made. 
 3.5.2. In addition, each Borrower hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes related to such Borrower and any
other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies related to such Borrower which arise from any 

  

 56 

 
payment hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note
or Facility LC Application (“Other Taxes”). 
 3.5.3. Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent, the LC
Issuer and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) related to such Borrower paid by the Agent, the LC Issuer or such
Lender as a result of its Revolving Loan Commitment, its Term Loan Commitment, any Loans made by it hereunder, or otherwise in connection with its participation in this Agreement and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising
therefrom or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days of the date the Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6. 
 3.5.4. Each Lender agrees that it will, not more than ten Business Days after the date of this Agreement and at such other times
prescribed by applicable law, deliver to each Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower as will demonstrate that such Lender is
entitled to an exemption from withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which such Borrower is located or a treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party and will permit payments by such Borrower hereunder to be made without withholding.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America, any Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (each
a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will, not more than ten Business Days after the date of this Agreement, (i) deliver to the Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY,
certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, and (ii) deliver to the Agent a United States Internal Revenue Form W-8
or W-9, as the case may be, and certify that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the Company and the Agent (x) renewals or additional copies of
such IRS form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, and (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent IRS forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or
amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent. All documentation, forms or amendments described in the first or second sentence of this Section 3.5.4 shall certify or otherwise demonstrate that such Lender is
entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any income taxes in the applicable jurisdiction, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the
date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such documentation inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such documentation or amendment with respect to it and such
Lender advises the Borrowers and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of income tax in such jurisdiction. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Agent of any change in circumstances which would
modify or render invalid any claimed exemption from withholding of income tax in any such jurisdiction. 
  

 57 

 3.5.5. For any period during which a Lender has failed to provide a Borrower with
appropriate documentation pursuant to Section 3.5.4 (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, occurring subsequent to the
date on which such documentation originally was required to be provided or, in the case of a Lender that became a party to this Agreement pursuant to an assignment, the assigning Lender was entitled, at the time of the assignment, to receive
additional amounts with respect to such withholding tax pursuant to this Section 3.5), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 by such Borrower with respect to Taxes imposed by the jurisdiction in which
such Borrower is located provided that, should a Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required under Section 3.5.4, the Borrowers
shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes. 
 3.5.6. If the
U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental authority of the United States or any other country or any political subdivision thereof asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of
any Lender (because the appropriate documentation was not delivered or properly completed, because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered its exemption from withholding ineffective, or for any other
reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax, withholding therefor, or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts
payable to the Agent under this subsection, together with all costs and expenses related thereto (including attorneys fees and time charges of attorneys for the Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the Agent). The obligations of the Lenders
under this Section 3.5.6 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement. 
 3.6. UK Tax.

determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of UK Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Loan Document. 

  

	 	(k)	Paragraph (j) above shall not apply with respect to any UK Tax assessed on a Protected Party: 

  

	 	(A)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Protected Party is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Protected Party is treated as
resident for tax purposes; or 

  

 61 

	 	(B)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Protected Party’s facility office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,

 if that UK Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to

	 	(l)	Furthermore, paragraph (j) above shall not apply to the extent a loss, liability or cost: 

  

	 	(A)	is compensated for by an increased payment under paragraphs (c) to (h) above; or 

  

	 	(B)	would have been compensated for by an increased payment under paragraphs (c) to (h) above but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in
paragraph (f) applied. 

  

	 	(m)	A Protected Party making, or intending to make a claim under paragraph (j) above shall promptly notify the Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim,

	 	(B)	that Lender has obtained, utilized and retained that Tax Credit, 

 the relevant Lender shall pay an amount to the Borrower which that Lender determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been made by the Borrower. 

 

	 	(p)	Each Borrower shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Lender against any cost, loss or liability that Lender incurs in relation to all stamp duty,
registration and other similar UK Taxes payable in respect of any Loan Document (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any such UK Tax arising in connection with an assignment or transfer by that Lender of its rights under any Loan Document).

  

	 	(q)	All amounts set out, or expressed to be payable under a Loan Document by any party to a Lender which (in whole or part) constitute the consideration for VAT purposes shall be deemed
to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (r) below, if VAT is chargeable on any supply made by any Lender to any party under a Loan Document, that party shall pay to the Lender (in
addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Lender shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such party). 

  

 62 

	 	(r)	Where a Loan Document requires any party to reimburse a Lender for any costs or expenses, that party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Lender against all VAT
incurred by the Lender in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that the Lender reasonably determines that neither it nor any other member of any group of which it is a member for VAT purposes is entitled to credit or repayment from the
relevant tax authority in respect of the VAT. 

 3.7. Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably
possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurocurrency Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrowers to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.5 and 3.6 or to avoid the unavailability of
Eurocurrency Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to
the Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and
binding on such Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Eurocurrency Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Eurocurrency Loan through the purchase of a
deposit of the type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurocurrency Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified
in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the applicable Borrower of such written statement. The obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 shall survive payment of the Obligations
and termination of this Agreement.

 ARTICLE V 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 Each Borrower (as to itself and its Subsidiaries) represents and warrants to the Lenders that: 
 5.1. Existence and Standing. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership (in the case of Subsidiaries only) or limited
liability company duly and properly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, validly existing and (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has
all requisite authority to conduct its business in all material respects in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except for any failure (other than by any Loan Party or any Material Foreign Subsidiary) to be in compliance with the
foregoing that could not, individually or collectively, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.2. Authorization
and Validity. Each Loan Party has the power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of the Loan
Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate proceedings, and the Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations
of such Loan Party enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or, in the case of
any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, by any general principles of law limiting its obligations which are specifically referred to on any legal opinion delivered pursuant to Section 4.2. 
  

 67 

 5.3. No Conflict; Government Consent. Neither the execution and delivery by each Loan Party of the
Loan Documents to which it is a party, nor the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate (i) any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award
binding on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s articles or certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, articles or certificate of organization, by-laws,
or operating or other management agreement, as the case may be, or (iii) the provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is
bound (including, without limitation, the Senior Note Indenture, the Senior Notes and the Convertible Note Indenture), or conflict with or constitute a default thereunder, or result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien in, of or on
the Property of the Company or a Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, instrument or agreement. No order, consent, adjudication, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or
exemption by, or other action in respect of any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, which has not been obtained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, is required to be obtained by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the borrowings under this Agreement, the payment and performance by the Borrowers of the Secured Obligations or the legality, validity, binding effect or
enforceability of any of the Loan Documents. 
 5.4. Financial Statements. (a) The Historical Financial Statements of the Company
and its Subsidiaries heretofore delivered to the Lenders were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in effect on the date such statements were prepared and fairly present the consolidated financial condition and
operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries at such dates and the consolidated results of their operations for the periods then ended. 
 (b) All pro forma financial statements or any projections furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary to the Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of, or compliance with, the Loan Documents (including,
without limitation, the financial statements that serve as the basis for the computations in the Opening Pro Forma Compliance Certificate), were prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions at the time of preparation. 
 5.5. Material Adverse Change. Since August 31, 2008, there has been no change in the business, Property, prospects, condition (financial or
otherwise) or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.6. Taxes. The Company and its Subsidiaries have filed all material United States federal tax returns and all other material tax returns which are required to be filed and have paid all material taxes due pursuant to said returns or
pursuant to any assessment received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP and as to which no Lien
exists. The United States income tax returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than Persons who became Subsidiaries of the Company after August 31, 2003) through the 

  

 68 

 
fiscal year ended August 31, 2003, are closed for audit by the Internal Revenue Service. No tax liens have been filed and no claims are being asserted
with respect to any such taxes which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are
adequate. 
 5.7. Litigation and Contingent Obligations. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.7, there is no litigation, arbitration,
governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their officers, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or
which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making of any Credit Extensions or any other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. Other than any liability incident to any litigation, arbitration or proceeding which (i) could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) is set forth on Schedule 5.7, the Company and its Subsidiaries have no material Contingent Obligations not provided for or disclosed in the financial statements referred to in
Section 5.4. 
 5.8. Subsidiaries. Schedule 5.8 contains an accurate list of all Subsidiaries of the Company as of the Closing
Date, setting forth their respective jurisdictions of organization and the percentage of their respective capital stock or other ownership interests owned by the Company or other Subsidiaries. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital
stock or other ownership interests of such Subsidiaries have been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. Schedule 1.2 contains an accurate
list of all of the Company’s Material Domestic Subsidiaries and their respective jurisdictions of organization as of the Closing Date. Schedule 1.3 contains an accurate list of all of the Company’s Material Foreign Subsidiaries and their
respective jurisdictions of organization as of the Closing Date. As of the Closing Date, (i) the aggregate assets of the Company, the Material Domestic Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 1.2 and the Material Foreign Subsidiaries listed on Schedule
1.3 (in the case of such Material Foreign Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) represent 75% or more of the Consolidated Assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and (ii) such entities on an aggregate
basis are responsible for 75% or more of the Consolidated Operating Income of the Company and its Subsidiaries. 
 5.9. Employee Benefit
Plans. (a) The Unfunded Liabilities of all Single Employer Plans do not in the aggregate exceed $25,000,000, and no Single Employer Plan has any Unfunded Liabilities for which a minimum funding waiver request under Section 412 of the
Code or Section 302 of ERISA has been filed or is reasonably anticipated to be filed. Neither the Company nor any other member of the Controlled Group has incurred, or is reasonably expected to incur, any withdrawal liability to Multiemployer
Plans in excess of $20,000,000 in the aggregate. Each Single Employer Plan complies with all applicable requirements of law and regulations, except for any failure to comply that could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to
have a Material Adverse Effect; no Reportable Event has occurred with respect to any Plan that, together with all other Reportable Events that have occurred and are continuing, could reasonably be expected to result in liability to the Company and
its Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount in excess of $20,000,000; neither the Company nor any other member of the Controlled Group has withdrawn from any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan or initiated steps to do so; and no steps have
been taken to reorganize any Multiemployer Plan or terminate any Plan under Section 4041(c) or 4042 of ERISA. 
  

 69 

 (b) Each Foreign Pension Plan is in compliance with all requirements of law applicable thereto and the
respective requirements of the governing documents for such plan except to the extent such non-compliance could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, none of the Company, its
Affiliates or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents has engaged in a transaction that has subjected, or could reasonably be expected to subject, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to a tax or civil penalty
that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, reserves have been established in the financial statements furnished to Lenders in respect of any
unfunded liabilities in accordance with applicable law or, where required, in accordance with ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Pension Plan is maintained. The aggregate unfunded liabilities, with respect to
such Foreign Pension Plans could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. There are no actions, suits or claims (other than routine claims for benefits) pending or threatened against the Company or any of its Affiliates
with respect to any Foreign Pension Plan which could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.10. Accuracy of Information. No information, exhibit or report furnished by any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the Agent or to any Lender in connection with the negotiation of, or
compliance with, the Loan Documents contained any material misstatement of fact or omitted to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in any material respect. 
 5.11. Regulation U. Margin stock (as defined in Regulation U) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the Company and its
Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge, or other restriction hereunder, and none of the Pledged Collateral is margin stock. 
 5.12. Material Agreements. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any charter or other corporate restriction the compliance with which could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement to which it is a party,
which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.13. Compliance With Laws. The Company and its
Subsidiaries have complied with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof having jurisdiction over the conduct of their respective businesses
or the ownership of their respective Property, except for any failure to comply with any of the foregoing which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Furthermore, to the extent that any Dutch Borrower would qualify as a
credit institution (kredietinstelling) under the Dutch Financial Supervision Act, it is in compliance therewith. 
  

 70 

 5.14. Ownership of Properties. On the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries will have
good title, free of all Liens other than those permitted by Section 6.15, to all of the Property and assets reflected in the Company’s most recent consolidated financial statements provided to the Agent as owned by the Company and its
Subsidiaries, except as sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business, other than defects in title that do not in the aggregate materially detract from the value of the property or assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken
as a whole, and do not materially impair the use thereof in the operation of the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 
 5.15. Insurance. Schedule 5.15 sets forth a true, complete and correct description of all material insurance maintained by the Company or by the Company for its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date. As of such date, such insurance is
in full force and effect and all premiums have been duly paid. The Company and its Subsidiaries have insurance in such amounts and covering such risks and liabilities as are in accordance with normal industry practice and have adequate reserves for
all deductibles and self-insurance programs. 
 5.16. Environmental Matters. In the ordinary course of its business, the officers of
the Company consider the effect of Environmental Laws on the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which they identify and evaluate potential risks and liabilities accruing to the Company due to Environmental Laws. On the
basis of this consideration, the Company has concluded that compliance with applicable Environmental Laws cannot reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice to the effect
that its operations are not in material compliance with any of the requirements of applicable Environmental Laws or are the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to a release of any
toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.17. Investment Company Act. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 5.18. [Reserved] 
 5.19. Security Interest in Collateral. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents create legal and valid perfected Liens on all
the Collateral in favor of the Agent to the extent required under the Collateral Documents, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations, and such Liens constitute perfected and continuing Liens on the Collateral, securing the Secured
Obligations, enforceable against the applicable Loan Party and all third parties, and having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral to the extent required under the Collateral Documents, except in the case of (a) Liens permitted under
Section 6.15, to the extent any such Lien would have priority over the Liens in favor of the Agent pursuant to any applicable law and (b) Liens perfected only by possession (including possession of any certificate of title) or control to
the extent the Agent has not obtained or does not maintain possession or control of such Collateral. 
 5.20.
[Reserved] 
  

 71 

 5.21. Solvency. Both before and after giving effect to (a) the initial Credit Extensions to
be made or incurred on the Closing Date or such other date as Loans and Facility LCs requested hereunder are made or incurred, (b) the disbursement of the proceeds of such Loans pursuant to the instructions of the Borrowers and (c) the
payment and accrual of all fees, costs and expenses in connection with the foregoing, each Loan Party is and will be Solvent. 
 5.22. No
Default or Unmatured Default. No Default or Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 5.23. Special Representations and
Warranties of each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. Each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders as provided in this Section 5.23 that: 
 5.23.1. Filing. To ensure the enforceability or admissibility in evidence of this Agreement and any Notes requested to be issued
hereunder by any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in its jurisdiction of organization (hereinafter referred to as its “Home Country”), it is not necessary that this Agreement or any such Notes or any other document be filed or recorded with any
court or other authority in its Home Country or that any stamp or similar tax be paid to or in respect of this Agreement or any such Notes of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. To the knowledge of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the qualification
by any Lender or the Agent for admission to do business under the laws of its Home Country does not constitute a condition to, and the failure to so qualify does not affect, the exercise by any Lender or the Agent of any right, privilege, or remedy
afforded to any Lender or the Agent in connection with the Loan Documents to which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is a party or the enforcement of any such right, privilege, or remedy against such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. The performance by
any Lender or the Agent of any action required or permitted under the Loan Documents will not (i) to the knowledge of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, violate any law or regulation of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s Home Country or any
political subdivision thereof, (ii) to the knowledge of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, result in any tax (other than any withholding tax for which the Company has provided an indemnity in accordance with the proviso set forth below) or other
monetary liability to such party pursuant to the laws of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s Home Country or political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or otherwise (provided that, should any such action result in any such tax or other
monetary liability to the Lender or the Agent, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, against (x) any such tax or other monetary liability and (y) any increase in any tax or other monetary
liability which results from such action by such Lender or the Agent and, to the extent the Company makes such indemnification, the incurrence of such liability by the Agent or any Lender will not constitute a Default) or (iii) violate any rule
or regulation of any federation or organization or similar entity applicable to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower of which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s Home Country is a member. 
 5.23.2. No Immunity. Neither such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower nor any of its assets is entitled to immunity from suit, execution,
attachment or other legal process. Such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to which it is a party constitute, and the exercise of its rights and performance of and compliance with its obligations under
such Loan Documents will constitute, private and commercial acts done and performed for private and commercial purposes.

incorporation or organization, as the case may be, and maintain all requisite authority to conduct its business in all material respects in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, in each case, except to the extent that a failure to do

 6.5. Taxes. The Company will, and will cause each Subsidiary
to, timely file complete and correct United States federal and applicable foreign, state and local tax returns required by law and pay when due all taxes, assessments and governmental charges and levies upon it or its income, profits or Property,

create a perfected, first priority security interest in the Equity Interests in such Material Foreign Subsidiary, provided that such pledges, individually or collectively, with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary shall not exceed the Applicable
Pledge Percentage of the Voting Equity Interests in such Foreign Subsidiary. The Company or any particular Domestic Subsidiary shall not be required to execute and deliver a Foreign Law Pledge Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.21(b) if such

  

 86 

 
entity directly holds 35% or less of the Voting Equity Interests in such Foreign Subsidiary and, as a result of the limitation set forth in the preceding
sentence, the Company can comply with this Section 6.21(b) without the pledge of such Voting Equity Interests. 
 (c) Minimum
Requirements. 
  

	 	(i)	90% of Company and Domestic Subsidiaries. If, at any time after the Closing Date, (x) the aggregate assets of the Company and the Guarantors (other than Equity Interests
in Subsidiaries) shall fail to represent 90% or more of the aggregate assets of the Company and its Domestic Subsidiaries (other than Equity Interests in Subsidiaries) as of such time or (y) such entities on an aggregate basis shall fail to be
responsible for 90% or more of the aggregate operating income of the Company and its Domestic Subsidiaries for the four fiscal quarter period then ended, the Company shall promptly notify the Agent thereof, which notice shall specify the date as of
which such failure arose. Within 30 days after the date specified in such notice (or such longer period as may be agreed by the Agent in its sole discretion), the Company shall, and shall cause its Domestic Subsidiaries (whether or not they are
Material Domestic Subsidiaries) to, comply with Section 6.21(a) (but without duplication of the 30-day grace period provided in this clause (c)(i)) to the extent necessary to cure the conditions giving rise to such failure.

  

	 	(ii)	50% of Foreign Subsidiaries. If, at any time after the Closing Date, (x) the aggregate assets of the Company’s Material Foreign Subsidiaries and the other Foreign
Subsidiaries the Applicable Pledge Percentage of the Voting Equity Interests of which have been pledged under a Foreign Law Pledged Agreement (in the case of such Foreign Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries)
shall fail to represent 50% or more of the aggregate assets of the Company’s Foreign Subsidiaries (in the case of such Foreign Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) or (y) such entities on an aggregate
basis (on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) shall fail to be responsible for 50% or more of the aggregate operating income of the Company’s Foreign Subsidiaries for the four fiscal quarter period then ended, the Company
shall promptly notify the Agent thereof, which notice shall specify the date as of which such failure arose. Within 30 days after the date specified in such notice (or such longer period as may be agreed by the Agent in its sole discretion), the
Company shall, and shall cause its Domestic Subsidiaries (whether or not they are Material Domestic Subsidiaries and whether or not the pledged Subsidiaries are Material Foreign Subsidiaries) to, comply with Section 6.21(b) (but without
duplication of the 30-day grace period provided in this clause (c)(ii)) to the extent necessary to cure the conditions giving rise to such failure. 

  

	 	(iii)	 75% of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries. If, at any time after the Closing Date, (x) the aggregate assets of the Company, the Guarantors
(in the case of the Company and such Guarantors, excluding Equity Interests in Subsidiaries) and all Material Foreign Subsidiaries and other Foreign Subsidiaries the Applicable Pledge Percentage of the Voting Equity Interests of which have been
pledged under a Foreign Law Pledge Agreement (in the case of such Foreign Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) shall fail to represent 75% or more of the Consolidated Assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries or
(y) such entities on an aggregate basis (in the case of such Foreign Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis with their respective Subsidiaries) shall fail to be responsible for 75% 

  

 87 

	 	 
or more of the Consolidated Operating Income of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the four fiscal quarter period then ended, the Company shall promptly
notify the Agent thereof, which notice shall specify the date as of which such failure arose. Within 30 days after the date specified in such notice (or such longer period as may be agreed by the Agent in its sole discretion), the Company shall, and
shall cause its Domestic Subsidiaries (whether or not they are Material Domestic Subsidiaries and whether or not the pledged Subsidiaries are Material Foreign Subsidiaries) to, comply with Section 6.21(a) and/or (b) (but without
duplication of the 30-day grace period provided in this clause (c)(iii)) to the extent necessary to cure the conditions giving rise to such failure. 

  

	 	(iv)	Guaranties of Other Obligations. If, at any time after the Closing Date, any Subsidiary of the Company that is not party to the Domestic Subsidiary Guaranty shall become
party to a guaranty of the Senior Note Indebtedness or any other obligation of the Company, the Company shall immediately notify the Agent thereof and cause such Subsidiary to comply with Section 6.21(a) (but without giving effect to the
30-day grace period provided therein). 

 (d) Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements
of this Section 6.21, all of the Equity Interests of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and the Foreign Subsidiaries of the Company that directly or indirectly own the Equity Interests of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be pledged to
the Agent to secure the Obligations owing by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each other Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. If, at any time after the Closing Date, the Company or any Subsidiary shall possess
any Equity Interests of any such Subsidiary, the Company shall immediately notify the Agent thereof and the Company shall, and/or shall cause each Subsidiary to, if and to the extent that each of them holds any Equity Interest in any such
Subsidiary, immediately execute and deliver to the Agent a new Foreign Law Pledge Agreement, together with such supporting documentation (including, without limitation, additional Collateral Documents, authorizing resolutions and/or opinions of
counsel) as the Agent may reasonably request, in order to create a perfected, first priority security interest in all of the Equity Interests in such Subsidiary securing the Obligations owing by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, each other Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. 
  

 88 

 (e) Collateral Documentation. The Company will cause, and will cause each Guarantor to cause, all
owned Property (other than real property) (as more fully described in the Security Agreement) to be subject at all times to first priority, perfected security interests in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations, to
secure the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Collateral Documents, subject in any case to Liens permitted by Section 6.15 hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will cause the
Applicable Pledge Percentage of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of each Subsidiary directly owned by the Company or any Guarantor to be subject at all times to a first priority, perfected Lien in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of
the Holders of Secured Obligations, to secure the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Security Agreement. 
 (f) Releases. 
  

	 	(i)	The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent to, and the Agent shall, release any Liens granted to the Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral (i) upon the
termination of the all Revolving Loan Commitments, the expiration or termination of all Facility LCs and payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations), (ii) constituting
property being sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of (including, pursuant to a Qualified Receivables Transaction) if the Company certifies to the Agent that such sale, transfer or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement (and the Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry) provided that after such release the Company remains in compliance with Section 6.21(c) or (iii) as required to effect any sale or other
disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those
expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including (without limitation) the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

  

	 	(ii)	The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent to, and the Agent shall, in the event of a sale, transfer or other disposition of all of the Equity Interests of any Guarantor if
the Company certifies to the Agent that such sale, transfer or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (x) release such Guarantor
from its obligations under the Domestic Subsidiary Guaranty and each other Loan Document to which it is a party and (y) release any Liens granted to the Agent by such Guarantor on any Collateral, provided that (i) such Guarantor is
concurrently released from any obligations it may have with respect to Subordinated Indebtedness and Senior Note Indebtedness and (ii) after such release the Company remains in compliance with Section 6.21(c). 

  

 89 

 (g) Foreign Pledge Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.21,
the Company shall (or shall cause the applicable Domestic Subsidiary to): 
  

	 	(i)	on or prior to the date ten (10) Business Days following the Closing Date (or such later date as the Agent shall agree in its sole discretion), execute and deliver to the Agent
a Foreign Law Pledge Agreement with respect to the Equity Interests of Enerpac GmbH; 

  

	 	(ii)	on or prior to the date sixty (60) days following the Closing Date (or such later date as the Agent shall agree in its sole discretion), execute and deliver to the Agent a

reasonably request); and 

  

	 	(iii)	on or prior to the date ninety (90) days after the First Amendment Effective Date (or such later date as the Agent shall agree in its sole discretion), execute and deliver to
the Agent a Foreign Law Pledge Agreement with respect to the Equity Interests of AIC (Hong Kong) Ltd. (unless, on or prior to such deadline, such Subsidiary shall no longer constitute a direct Subsidiary of the Company or a Domestic Subsidiary
thereof); 

 in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and together with such supporting documentation
(including, without limitation, additional Collateral Documents, authorizing resolutions and/or opinions of counsel) as the Agent may reasonably request, in order to create a perfected, first priority security interest in the Equity Interests in
such Foreign Subsidiary; provided, that such pledges, individually or collectively, with respect to any Foreign Subsidiary shall not exceed the Applicable Pledge Percentage of the Voting Equity Interests in such Foreign Subsidiary.

 (h) Additional Collateral; Further Assurances. 
  

	 	(i)	Without limiting the foregoing, the Company will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Agent such documents,
agreements and instruments, and will take or cause to be taken such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements and other documents, as applicable), which may be required by law or which the Agent may, from time to
time, reasonably request to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to ensure perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, all at the expense of the
Company. 

  

	 	(ii)	 If any assets of a type constituting Collateral under the Security Agreement are acquired by the Company or a Guarantor after the First Amendment Effective Date
(other than assets constituting Collateral under the Security Agreement that become subject to the Lien under the Security Agreement upon acquisition thereof), the Company will notify the Agent thereof, and, if requested by the Agent, the Company
will cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Secured 

  

 90 

	 	 
Obligations and will take, and cause the other Loan Parties to take, such actions as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Agent to grant and
perfect such Liens, including actions described in Section 6.21(h)(i), all at the expense of the Company.

 ARTICLE VIII 
 ACCELERATION,
WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES 
 8.1. Acceleration. 
 8.1.1. If any Default described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 occurs with respect to any Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make
Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs shall automatically terminate and the Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of the Agent, the LC Issuer or
any Lender and the Company will be and become thereby unconditionally obligated, without any further notice, act or demand, to pay to the Agent an amount in immediately available funds, which funds shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral
Account, equal to the difference of (x) the amount of LC Obligations at such time, less (y) the amount on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account at such time which is free and clear of all rights and claims of third parties and has
not been applied against the Obligations (such difference, the “Collateral Shortfall Amount”). If any other Default occurs, the Required Lenders (or the Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) may (a) terminate or suspend the
obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs, or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, 

  

 93 

 
or both, whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the
Borrowers hereby expressly waive, and (b) upon notice to the Company and in addition to the continuing right to demand payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement, make demand on the Company to pay, and the Company will, forthwith upon
such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account. 
 8.1.2. If at any time while any Default is continuing, the Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater
than zero, the Agent may make demand on the Company to pay, and the Company will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC
Collateral Account. 
 8.1.3. The Agent may at any time or from time to time after funds are deposited in the Facility LC
Collateral Account, apply such funds to the payment of the Obligations and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and payable by the Company to the Lenders or the LC Issuer under the Loan Documents. 
 8.1.4. At any time while any Default is continuing, neither the Company nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Company shall
have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. After this Agreement has terminated in accordance with Section 2.7(c), any funds remaining in the Facility LC Collateral Account shall be returned by the
Agent to the Company or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time. 
 8.1.5. At any time while any Default
is continuing, the Agent may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, exercise any rights and remedies provided to the Agent under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC. 
 8.1.6. If, within 30 days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make
Loans and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 with respect to a Borrower) and before any judgment or decree for the
payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) shall so direct, the Agent shall, by notice to the Borrowers, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination. 
  

 94 

 8.2. Amendments. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2, the Required Lenders (or the Agent
with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and the Borrowers may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or
the Borrowers hereunder or waiving any Default hereunder; provided, however, that: 
 (a) no such supplemental agreement shall, without the
consent of each Lender affected thereby (which, in the case of clauses (ii), (iv), (vi) and (vii), shall in all instances be deemed to include each Lender): 
  

	 	(i)	Extend the Revolving Loan Termination Date, or extend the expiry date of any Facility LC to a date after the Revolving Loan Termination Date, or forgive all or any portion of the
principal amount of any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation, or postpone any regularly scheduled payment of principal of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees under this
Agreement. 

  

	 	(ii)	Reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders or any other percentage of Lenders specified to be the applicable percentage in this Agreement to act on
specified matters. 

  

	 	(iii)	Except pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or 2.5(c), increase the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment or the Term Loan Commitment of any Lender hereunder; or increase the
commitment to issue Facility LCs. 

  

	 	(iv)	Permit any Borrower to assign its rights under this Agreement. 

  

	 	(v)	Amend this Section 8.2. 

  

	 	(vi)	Amend the definition of “Agreed Currency” set forth in Section 1.1. 

  

	 	(vii)	Release any Guarantor, except in connection with a disposition of all of the Equity Interests of a Guarantor otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, or, except as provided in the
Collateral Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral. 

  

	 	(viii)	(A) Release the Company from its obligations under Section 16.1 or (B) unless at such time no Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers are party hereto, release any Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower from its obligations under any Guaranty. 

  

	 	(ix)	Amend Section 11.2 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby; and 

 (b) without limiting the foregoing requirements, no such supplemental agreement shall (i) alter the order of application of (x) prepayments
hereunder, (y) amounts paid or payable under any Guaranty or (z) proceeds of Collateral under any Pledge Agreement, in each case, without the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders and the Required Term Loan Lenders, (ii) modify
the definition of Required Revolving Lenders without the consent of each of the Required Revolving Lenders or (iii) modify the definition of Required Term Loan Lenders without the consent of each of the Term Loan Lenders. 
  

 95 

 No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Agent shall be effective without the written consent of
the Agent, and no amendment of any provision relating to the LC Issuer shall be effective without the written consent of the LC Issuer. No amendment to any provision of this Agreement relating to the Swing Line Lender or any Swing Line Loans shall
be affective without the written consent of the Swing Line Lender. The Agent may waive payment of the fee required under Section 12.3.2. 
 8.3. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders, the LC Issuer or the Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence
therein, and the making of a Credit Extension notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of any Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Credit Extension shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or
partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be
valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.2, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all
shall be available to the Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders until this Agreement terminates as described in Section 2.7(c). 
 ARTICLE IX 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 9.1. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained in this Agreement shall survive the making of the Credit Extensions herein contemplated.

obligated to extend credit to any Borrower in violation of any limitation or prohibition provided by any applicable statute or regulation.

 9.4. Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding among the Borrowers, the Agent, the LC Issuer and the
Lenders and supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the Borrowers, the Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders relating to the subject matter thereof other than those contained in the fee letters described in Section 10.13, which
shall survive and remain in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement. 
  

 96 

 9.5. Several Obligations; Benefits of this Agreement. The respective obligations of the Lenders
hereunder are several and not joint and no Lender shall be the partner or agent of any other (except to the extent to which the Agent is authorized to act as such). The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not
relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns,
provided, however, that the parties hereto expressly agree that each Arranger shall enjoy the benefits of the provisions of Sections 9.6, 9.10 and 10.11 to the extent specifically set forth therein and shall have the right to enforce
such provisions on its own behalf and in its own name to the same extent as if it were a party to this Agreement. 
 9.6. Expenses;
Indemnification. (i) The Company shall reimburse the Agent and the Arrangers for any costs, internal charges and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys for the Agent, which

amendment, modification, and administration of the Loan Documents. The Company also agrees to reimburse the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer and the Lenders for any costs, internal charges and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees and time charges of attorneys for the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer and the Lenders, which attorneys may be employees of the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer or the Lenders) paid or incurred by the Agent, the Arrangers,
the LC Issuer or any Lender in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Loan Documents. 
 (ii) The Company hereby further
agrees to indemnify the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer, each Lender, their respective affiliates, and each of their directors, officers and employees against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses
(including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer, any Lender or any affiliate is a party thereto) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating
to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated hereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Credit Extension hereunder except to the extent that they are determined in a
final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification. The obligations of the Company under this Section 9.6 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement. 
 9.7. Numbers of Documents. All statements, notices, closing documents, and requests hereunder shall
be furnished to the Agent with sufficient counterparts so that the Agent may furnish one to each of the Lenders. 
 9.8. Accounting.

unconsolidated on the Company’s audited financial statements. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or 

  

 97 

 
requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and the Company, the Agent or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Agent, the Lenders and the Company shall
negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders), provided that, until so amended, such ratio or requirement
shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and the Company shall provide to the Agent and the Lenders reconciliation statements showing the difference in such calculation, together with the delivery of
monthly, quarterly and annual financial statements required hereunder. 
 9.9. Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan
Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation,
enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable. 
 9.10. Nonliability of Lenders. The relationship between the Borrowers on the one hand and the Lenders, the LC Issuer and the Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. None of the
Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Borrower. None of the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to any Borrower to review or inform any
Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of such Borrower’s business or operations. Each Borrower agrees that none of the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall have liability to such Borrower (whether sounding in
tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by such Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event
occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought.
None of the Agent, the Arrangers, the LC Issuer nor any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and each Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by such
Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby. 
 9.11.
Confidentiality. The Agent and each Lender agrees to hold any confidential information which it may receive from the Borrowers in connection with this Agreement in confidence, except for disclosure (i) to its Affiliates and to the Agent
and any other Lender and their respective Affiliates, (ii) to legal counsel, accountants, and other professional advisors to such Lender or to a Transferee, (iii) to regulatory officials, (iv) to any Person as requested pursuant to or
as required by law, regulation, or legal process, (v) to any Person in connection with any legal proceeding to which it or its Affiliates is a party, (vi) to its direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements or to legal
counsel, accountants and other professional advisors to such counterparties, (vii) permitted by Section 12.4, and (viii) to rating agencies if requested or required by such agencies in connection with a rating relating to the Advances
hereunder. Without limiting Section 9.4, each Borrower agrees that the terms of this Section 9.11 shall set forth the entire agreement between such Borrower and each Lender (including the Agent) with respect to any confidential information
previously or hereafter received by such Lender in connection with this Agreement, and this Section 9.11 shall supersede any and all prior confidentiality agreements entered into by such Lender with respect to such confidential information.

 9.14.1. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain,
verify and record information that identifies such Borrower, which information includes the name and address of such Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

 9.14.2. If (a) the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any
law or regulation made after the date of this Agreement; (b) any change in the status of a Borrower after the date of this Agreement; or (c) a proposed assignment or transfer by a Lender of any of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement to a party that is not a Lender prior to such assignment or transfer, obliges the Agent or any Lender (or, in the case of clause (c) above, any prospective new Lender) to comply with “know your customer” or similar
identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, each Borrower shall promptly upon the request of the Agent or any Lender supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other
evidence as is reasonably requested by the Agent (for itself or on behalf of any Lender) or any Lender (for itself or, in the case of the event described in clause (c) above, on behalf of any prospective new Lender) in order for the Agent, such
Lender or, in the case of the event described in clause (c) above, any prospective new Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and
regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender shall promptly upon the request of the Agent supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably
requested by the Agent (for itself) in order for the Agent to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions

limitation, Loans extended to it). The Company shall be liable for each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s Obligations. Each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be liable for each other Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s Obligations to extent set
forth in its respective Guaranty, but shall in no event be liable for any of the Company’s Obligations. Each Guarantor shall guaranty the repayment of all Obligations, irrespective of the Borrower that incurs such Obligations. 
 ARTICLE X 
 THE AGENT 

 10.1. Appointment; Nature of Relationship. JPMorgan is hereby appointed by each of the Lenders as its contractual representative
(herein referred to as the “Agent”) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set
forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article X. Notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Agent,” it is expressly
understood and agreed that the Agent shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and that the Agent is merely acting as the contractual representative of the Lenders with only
those duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual representative, the Agent (i) does not hereby assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders,
(ii) is a “representative” of the Lenders within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the Illinois Uniform Commercial Code and (iii) is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of
which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders hereby agrees to assert no claim against the Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty,
all of which claims each Lender hereby waives. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
 10.2.
Powers. The Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent shall have
no implied duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the Agent. 
 10.3. General Immunity. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrowers, the Lenders or
any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such action or inaction is determined in a final non appealable judgment by a
court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person. 
  

 100 

 10.4. No Responsibility for Loans, Recitals, etc. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors,
officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder; (b) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any agreement by an obligor to furnish information directly to each Lender; (c) the satisfaction of any
condition specified in Article IV, except receipt of items required to be delivered solely to the Agent; (d) the existence or possible existence of any Default or Unmatured Default; (e) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness,
sufficiency or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith; (f) the value, sufficiency, creation, perfection or priority of any Lien in any collateral security; or (g) the financial
condition of any Borrower or any guarantor of any of the Obligations or of any Borrower’s or any such guarantor’s respective Subsidiaries. 
 10.5. Action on Instructions of Lenders. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written
instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no duty to take any
discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Lenders. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or
refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action. 
 10.6. Employment of Agents and Counsel. The Agent may execute any of its duties as Agent
hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of
any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between the Agent and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to the Agent’s duties
hereunder and under any other Loan Document. 
 10.7. Reliance on Documents; Counsel. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any
Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex, electronic mail message, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and,
in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Agent, which counsel may be employees of the Agent. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Sections 4.1 and 4.3, each Lender that has signed
this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Agent shall
have received notice from such Lender prior to the applicable date specifying its objection thereto. 
  

 101 

 10.8. Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify
the Agent ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares of the applicable amount (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by the Company for which the Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Company under the Loan Documents,
(ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for any expenses incurred
by the Agent in connection with any dispute between the Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders) and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the
transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, for any such amounts incurred by or asserted against the Agent in connection with any dispute between the Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders), or the
enforcement of any of the terms of the Loan Documents or of any such other documents, provided that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a final non-appealable judgment by
a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent, (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 3.5.6 shall, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.8,
be paid by the relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions thereof. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.8 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such
amounts relating solely to the Term Loan Facility (as determined by the Agent in its sole discretion) shall be reimbursed by the Term Loan Lenders ratably in proportion to their respective Term Loan Pro Rata Shares thereof and any such amounts
relating solely to the Revolving Loan Facility (as determined by the Agent in its sole discretion) shall be reimbursement by the Revolving Lenders ratably in proportion to their respective Revolving Loan Pro Rata Shares thereof. 
 10.9. Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Unmatured Default hereunder
unless the Agent has received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement describing such Default or Unmatured Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Agent receives
such a notice, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. 
 10.10. Rights as a Lender. In the event the Agent is a
Lender, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document with respect to its Revolving Loan Commitment, its Term Loan Commitment and its Loans as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not
the Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time when the Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity. The Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits
from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in which the Company or
such Subsidiary is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person. 
 10.11. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Arrangers or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrowers and such other documents and 

  

 102 

 
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender
also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Arrangers or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Except for any notice, report, document or other information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent or Arrangers hereunder, neither the Agent nor
the Arrangers shall have any duty or responsibility (either initially or on a continuing basis) to provide any Lender with any notice, report, document, credit information or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business
of the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates that may come into the possession of the Agent or Arrangers (whether or not in their respective capacity as Agent or Arranger) or any of their Affiliates. 
 10.12. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers, such resignation to be
effective upon the appointment of a successor Agent or, if no successor Agent has been appointed, forty-five days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its intention to resign. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right
to appoint, on behalf of the Borrowers and the Lenders, a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders within thirty days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then
the resigning Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Agent. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Agent may at any time without the consent of any Borrower or any Lender, appoint any of its Affiliates which is
a commercial bank as a successor Agent hereunder. If the Agent has resigned and no successor Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Agent hereunder and the Borrowers shall make all payments in respect of the
Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Agent has accepted the appointment. Any such successor Agent
shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Agent, the resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. After the
effectiveness of the resignation of an Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Agent hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents. In the event that there is a successor to the Agent by merger, or the Agent assigns its duties and obligations to an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 10.12, then the term “Prime Rate” as used in this
Agreement shall mean the prime rate, base rate or other analogous rate of the new Agent. 
 10.13. Agent and Arranger Fees. Without
limiting the continuing applicability of any fee letters delivered in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement, the Company agrees to pay to the Agent and the Arrangers, for their respective accounts, the fees agreed to by the Borrower and the
Arrangers pursuant to the letter agreements among such parties dated October 30, 2008, or as otherwise agreed from time to time. 
  

 103 

 10.14. Delegation to Affiliates. The Borrowers and the Lenders agree that the Agent may delegate
any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates. Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits
of the indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to which the Agent is entitled under Articles IX and X. 
 10.15.
Collateral Matters. 
 10.15.1. In its capacity, the Agent is a “representative” of the Holders of Secured
Obligations within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the Illinois Uniform Commercial Code. Each Lender authorizes the Agent to enter into each Guaranty, Collateral Document or related intercreditor agreement to which it
is or may become a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents. Each Lender agrees that no Holder of Secured Obligations (other than the Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any
Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Agent upon the terms of the Collateral Documents. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral
security for the Secured Obligations, the Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a
Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Agent on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations. 
 10.15.2. Each Lender hereby
appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Agent and the Holders of Secured Obligations, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected
only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Agent or
otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Agent’s instructions. 
 10.16. Guaranty and Collateral Releases.

 10.16.1. The Lenders hereby authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to permit the release of any
Guarantor from the Domestic Subsidiary Guaranty or of any Lien granted to or held by the Agent upon any Collateral (i) as described in Section 6.21(e); (ii) as permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable
Loan Documents; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, unless such release is required to be approved by all of the Lenders hereunder. Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in
writing the Agent’s authority to release any particular Guarantor or particular types or items of Collateral pursuant hereto. 
 10.16.2. Upon any sale or transfer of assets constituting Collateral which is permitted pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, or consented to in writing by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, and upon at least
five Business Days’ prior written request by the Company, the Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) 

  

 104 

 
execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Agent herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was
sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Agent’s opinion, would expose the Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence
other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Secured Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all
interests retained by the Loan Parties, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. 
 10.17. Dutch Parallel Debt. 
 10.17.1. Each of the Dutch Borrowers and the Company
(each a “Parallel Debt Obligor”) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Agent an amount equal to the aggregate amount payable by it from time to time in respect of (a) its Obligations and (b) each Rate
Management Transaction entered into by it with any counterparty that was a Lender (or an Affiliate thereof) at the time such Rate Management Transaction was entered into (unless the applicable Lender party thereto agreed in writing not be secured
pursuant to this Agreement) (the “Swap Obligations”). The payment undertaking of each Parallel Debt Obligor to the Agent is hereinafter to be referred to as such Parallel Debt Obligor’s “Dutch Parallel Debt”. 
 10.17.2. The Dutch Parallel Debt of each Parallel Debt Obligor will be payable in the currency or currencies of the corresponding
Obligations and Swap Obligations. 
 10.17.3. Any obligation under the Dutch Parallel Debt of any Parallel Debt Obligor shall
become due and payable (opeisbaar) as and when and to the extent one or more of the corresponding Obligations or Swap Obligations become due and payable. The parties hereto agree that a Default in respect of the Obligations or Swap
Obligations shall constitute a default (verzuim) within the meaning of Article 3:248 Netherlands Civil Code with respect to the relevant Dutch Parallel Debt of a Parallel Debt Obligor as well without any notice being required therefor.

 10.17.4. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that: 
 (a) the Dutch Parallel Debt of each Parallel Debt Obligor constitutes an undertaking, obligation and liability of such Parallel Debt
Obligor to the Agent which is separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the Obligations and Swap Obligations; and 
 (b) the Dutch Parallel Debt of each Parallel Debt Obligor represents the Agent’s own separate and independent claim (eigen en zelfstandige vordering) to receive payment of such Dutch Parallel Debt from such Parallel Debt Obligor
and shall not constitute the Agent and any holder of Obligations or Swap Obligations as joint creditors (hoofdelijk schuldeisers) of any Obligation or Swap Obligation, it being understood that the amount which may become payable by a Parallel
Debt Obligor as its Dutch Parallel Debt shall never exceed the total of the amounts which are payable by it under its Obligations and Swap Obligations. 
  

 105 

 10.17.5. For the avoidance of doubt, each Parallel Debt Obligor and the Agent confirm
that the claims of the Agent against each Parallel Debt Obligor in respect of its Dutch Parallel Debt and the claims of any one or more of the holders of Obligations or Swap Obligations against each Parallel Debt Obligor in respect of its
Obligations and Swap Obligations payable by it to such holders of Obligations or Swap Obligations do not constitute common property (gemeenschap) within the meaning of article 3:166 Netherlands Civil Code and that the provisions relating to
common property shall not apply. If, however, it shall be held that such claim of the Agent and such claims of any one or more of the holders of Obligations or Swap Obligations do constitute common property and the provisions relating to common
property do apply, the parties agree that the applicable provisions of this Agreement shall constitute the respective administration agreement (beheersregeling) within the meaning of article 3:168 Netherlands Civil Code. 
 10.17.6. To the extent the Agent irrevocably (onaantastbaar) receives any amount in payment of any Dutch Parallel Debt, the Agent
shall distribute such amount among the Holders of Secured Obligations that are creditors of the corresponding Obligations or Swap Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. Each Parallel Debt Obligor and the Agent
agree that upon irrevocable receipt by the Agent of any amount in payment of the Dutch Parallel Debt of any Parallel Debt Obligor (a “Received Amount”), the corresponding Obligations or Swap Obligations shall be reduced by amounts totaling
an amount equal to the Received Amount (a “Deductible Amount”) in the manner as if the Deductible Amount were received as payment of the relevant Obligations or Swap Obligations on the date of receipt by the Agent of the Received Amount.

 10.17.7. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, for purposes of a Dutch pledge, any resignation by the Agent is not
effective until its rights under each Dutch Parallel Debt of a Parallel Debt Obligor is assigned to the successor Agent. 
 10.18. French
Security. Each Lender, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby appoints the Agent to register, perform and enforce any security interest (sûreté réelle) granted by Actuant International Holdings, Inc., a
Delaware corporation, or any other Loan Party under the laws of the Republic of France in order to secure the performance and payment of the Secured Obligations. 
 10.19. Syndication Agents; Documentation Agents. None of the Lenders identified in this Agreement as a Syndication Agent or Documentation Agent shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility
or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same
acknowledgments with respect to such Lenders as it makes with respect to the Agent in Section 10.11. 
  

 106 

 ARTICLE XI 
 SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS; APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS 
 11.1. Setoff. In addition to, and
without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Borrower becomes insolvent, however evidenced, or any Default occurs, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not
collected or available) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender to or for the credit or account of a Borrower may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such
Lender, whether or not the Obligations, or any part thereof, shall then be due (it being understood and agreed that deposits of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or Indebtedness held or owing by a Lender to or for the credit or account of any Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower shall be offset by such Lender and applied only toward any Obligations incurred by or on behalf of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to that Lender). 
 11.2. Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure or its Term Loans (other than payments received pursuant to
Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 or 3.6) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and Term Loans held by the
other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its Revolving Loan Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and its Term Loan Pro Rata Share of the Term Loans. If any Lender, whether in connection with
setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Secured Obligations or such amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action
necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares, Revolving Loan Pro Rata Shares and Term Loan Pro Rata Shares, as the case may be. In case any such payment is
disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made. 
 11.3. Application of Proceeds. Any
proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent (i) not constituting a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Company) or (ii) after a Default
has occurred and is continuing and the Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, such funds shall be applied ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Agent and the LC
Issuer from any Loan Party (other than in connection with Rate Management Obligations and Banking Services Obligations), second, to pay accrued and unpaid interest and fees then due and payable on the Loans ratably, third, pro rata, to
payment of the principal outstanding on Loans, the Banking Services Obligations constituting Secured Obligations and the net early termination payments and any other Rate Management Obligations then due and unpaid from the Company or its
Subsidiaries to any of the Lenders or their Affiliates, pro rata among the Lenders and their Affiliates in accordance with the amount of such principal, such Banking Services Obligations and such net early termination payments and other Rate
Management Obligations then due and unpaid owing to each of them, and fourth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligations (other than those listed above) due to the Agent or any Lender by the Company or any Subsidiary pro rata among those
parties to whom such Secured Obligations are due in accordance with the amounts owing to each of them. The Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to
any portion of the Secured Obligations. 
  

 107 

 ARTICLE XII 
 BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS 
 12.1. Successors and Assigns. The
terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) no Borrower shall have the right to assign
its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender, (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3, and (iii) any transfer by Participation must be made
in compliance with Section 12.2. Any attempted assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section 12.1 shall be null and void, unless such attempted assignment or transfer is treated as a participation in
accordance with Section 12.3.2. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that clause (ii) of this Section 12.1 relates only to absolute assignments and this Section 12.1 does not prohibit assignments creating security interests,
including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or assignment by any Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or (y) in the case of a Lender which is a Fund, any pledge or
assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall
release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder unless and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 12.3. The Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note as the owner thereof
for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person complies with Section 12.3; provided, however, that the Agent may in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person which made any Loan or
which holds any Note to direct payments relating to such Loan or Note to another Person. Any assignee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents.
Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Loan (whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive and
binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Loan. 
 12.2. Participations. 
 12.2.1. Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities
(“Participants”) participating interests in any Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure owing to such Lender, any Term Loans of such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Revolving Loan Commitment or any Term Loan Commitment of such
Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of its Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and/or Term Loans, as applicable, and the holder of any Note issued
to it in 

  

 108 

 
evidence thereof for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender
had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrowers and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. 
 12.2.2. Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure, Term Loans, Revolving Loan Commitment, Term Loan Commitment or Facility LC in
which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of the Lender from which such Participant purchased its participation under clauses (i) through (v) of Section 8.2. 
 12.2.3. Benefit of Certain Provisions. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff
provided in Section 11.1 in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents,
provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant. The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant,
by exercising the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 11.2 as if each
Participant were a Lender. The Borrowers further agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 9.6 and 9.10 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment
pursuant to Section 12.3, provided that (i) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.5 or 3.6 than the Lender who sold the participating interest to such Participant would
have received had it retained such interest for its own account, unless the sale of such interest to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Company, and (ii) any Participant not incorporated under the laws of the United
States of America or any State thereof agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender. 
 12.3. Assignments. 
 12.3.1. Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more
banks or other entities (“Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents subject to the following conditions: 
  

	 	(i)	Each such assignment shall be of a constant and not varying ratable or non-pro rata percentage (as between the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Facility) of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents; 

  

 109 

	 	(ii)	Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C or in such other form as may be agreed to by the parties thereto; 

  

	 	(iii)	Each such assignment with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund shall either be in an amount equal to the entire applicable
Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure and/or Term Loan Commitment (if any) and Term Loans, as applicable, of the assigning Lender or (unless each of the Company and the Agent otherwise consents; provided that the
consent of the Company shall not be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing) be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000. The amount of the assignment shall be based on the Revolving Loan Commitment or Outstanding Revolving
Credit Exposure (if the Revolving Loan Commitment has been terminated) and/or the outstanding Term Loan Commitment (if any) or Term Loans subject to the assignment, determined as of the date of such assignment or as of the “Trade Date,” if
the “Trade Date” is specified in the assignment; 

  

	 	(iv)	Except in the case of an assignment to an existing Lender that has advanced a Revolving Loan to each Dutch Borrower, the amount of such assignment with respect to a borrowing made
to a Dutch Borrower shall always be at least €50,000 (or its equivalent in another Agreed Currency) unless an assignment is made to any Person which qualifies as a professional market party (professionele markt partij) under the Dutch
Financial Supervision Act; 

  

	 	(v)	The Purchaser (A) if it is a Non-U.S. Lender, shall have delivered tax certificates described in Section 3.5, which indicate that such Non-U.S. Lender is exempt from any
withholding tax under the laws of the United States on payments by the Company in such jurisdiction, (B) shall have confirmed that it is exempt from any withholding tax under the laws of the Netherlands on payments by Dutch Borrowers and
(C) shall provide to the Agent for the onward transmission to the relevant UK Borrower, in respect of Loans made to a UK Borrower, a tax certificate in the form set forth in the Exhibit H attached hereto, except, in the case of clauses
(A) and (B), to the extent the assigning Lender was entitled, at the time of the assignment, to receive additional amounts with respect to such withholding taxes pursuant to Section 3.5; and 

  

	 	(vi)	So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no such assignment shall be made to any Person that is not capable of lending (A) Agreed Currencies to each
Borrower and (B) each Type of Loan. 

 12.3.2. Consents. The consent of the Company shall be
required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, provided that the consent of the Company shall not be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing. The
consent of the Agent shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective. The consent of JPMorgan in its capacity as LC Issuer shall be required for assignments of the Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure (but
not Term Loans or any Term Loan Commitment) prior to an assignment becoming effective. Any consent required under this Section 12.3.2 shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 
  

 110 

 12.3.3. Effect; Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the Agent of an
assignment, together with any consents required by Sections 12.3.1 and 12.3.2, and (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Agent), such assignment shall become effective on the
effective date specified in such assignment. The assignment shall contain a representation by the Purchaser to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding Revolving Credit
Exposure and/or Term Loan Commitment (if any) and Term Loans under the applicable assignment agreement constitutes “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Purchaser in and under the Loan Documents will
not be “plan assets” under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the Lenders and shall
have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the transferor Lender shall be released with respect to the Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding Revolving
Credit Exposure and/or Term Loan Commitment (if any) and Term Loans assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Borrowers, the Lenders or the Agent. In the case of an assignment covering all of the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which survive payment
of the Obligations and termination of the applicable agreement. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.3 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as
a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.2. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.3.3, the transferor Lender, the Agent and the
Borrowers shall, if the transferor Lender or the Purchaser desires that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as
appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Revolving Loan Commitments (or, if the Revolving Loan Commitments have terminated, the Revolving Loan Credit Exposure) or
Term Loan Commitment (if any) and Term Loans, as appropriate, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment. 
 12.3.4.
Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in Chicago, Illinois a copy of each assignment agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Loan Commitments and Term Loan Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender, and participations of each Lender in Facility LCs, pursuant to the terms hereof from time to
time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all
purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
  

 111 

 12.4. Dissemination of Information. Each Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any
Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the
creditworthiness of such Borrower and its Subsidiaries; provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 9.11 of this Agreement. 
 12.5. Tax Treatment. If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any Transferee which is not incorporated under the laws of the United
States or any State thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5.4.

Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Subject to the qualifications
provided in Article IV, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Agent, and when the Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the 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. 
 14.2 Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,”
“signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any assignment and assumption agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal

and National Commerce Act, or any other state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 ARTICLE XV 
 CHOICE OF LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL 
 15.1. CHOICE OF LAW. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN THOSE CONTAINING A CONTRARY EXPRESS CHOICE OF LAW PROVISION) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, 735
ILCS SECTION 105/5-1 ET SEQ, BUT OTHERWISE WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS) OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS APPLICABLE TO NATIONAL BANKS. 
  

 114 

 15.2. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE
JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR ILLINOIS STATE COURT SITTING IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS AND EACH BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF
SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN
INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE AGENT, THE LC ISSUER OR ANY LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY BORROWER IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY ANY BORROWER AGAINST THE AGENT, THE LC
ISSUER OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE AGENT, THE LC ISSUER OR ANY LENDER INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH ANY LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN CHICAGO,

XIII OF THIS AGREEMENT. 
 ARTICLE XVI 
 GUARANTY 
 16.1. Company Guaranty. In order to induce the Lenders to extend credit to
the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers hereunder, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of the Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. The
Company further agrees that the due and punctual payment of such Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any
such extension or renewal of any such Obligation. 
  

 115 

 The Company waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Borrower of any of the
Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender to assert any
claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations; (c) any rescission, waiver,
amendment or modification of, or release from, any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, or any other Loan Document or agreement; (d) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Obligations; or
(e) any other act (other than payment of the Obligations), omission or delay to do any other act which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Company or otherwise operate as a discharge of a guarantor as a matter of
law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of the Company to subrogation. 
 The Company further agrees that its agreement
hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and
waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender in favor of any Borrower or any other Person.

 The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason
(other than payment of the Obligations), and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations, any impossibility
in the performance of any of the Obligations or otherwise. 
 The Company further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be
effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower
or otherwise. 
 In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender may
have at law or in equity against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or
otherwise, the Company hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Agent, in cash an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Obligations then due, together with
accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The Company further agrees that if payment in respect of any Obligation shall be due in a currency other than Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than at the address of the Agent specified in Article XIII
and if, by reason of any adoption of, or change in, any law or regulation, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be
impossible or, in the reasonable judgment of the Agent, 

  

 116 

 
disadvantageous to the Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender, in any material respect, then, at the election of the Agent, the Company shall make payment of
such Obligation in Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or at the address of the Agent specified in Article XIII, and, as a separate and independent obligation, shall indemnify the Agent, the LC
Issuer and each Lender against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment. 
 Upon payment by the Company of any sums as provided above, all rights of the Company against any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and
junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations owed by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to the Agents and the Lenders. 
 Nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of the Company hereunder except the full performance and payment of the Obligations. 
 16.2. Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Guaranty. Upon the joinder of any Foreign Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder, (i) such
Foreign Subsidiary shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, execute and deliver in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a guaranty of payment of the Obligations of each other Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and (ii) each
other Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, execute and deliver a guaranty (or, as applicable, a reaffirmation of guaranty) of payment of the Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, in each case, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, together with such supporting documentation, including authorizing resolutions and/or opinions of counsel, as the Agent may reasonably request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Dutch Borrower shall be liable
under such Guaranty to the extent that, if it were so liable, its entry into such Guaranty would violate sections 2:98c or 2:207 of the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek). 
 ARTICLE XVII  
 NO NOVATION OF EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT 

 17.1. No Novation of Existing Credit Agreement. It is the intent of the parties hereto that, from and after the Closing Date, this
Agreement (i) shall re-evidence, in part, the Company’s obligations and indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement, (ii) is entered into in substitution for, and not in payment of, the obligations and indebtedness of the Company
under the Existing Credit Agreement, and (iii) is in no way intended to constitute a novation of any of the Company’s obligations and indebtedness which were evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
(including any fee letters or Notes delivered in connection therewith). All Loans made and Obligations incurred under the Existing Credit Agreement which are outstanding on the Closing Date shall continue as Revolving Loans, Obligations and Secured
Obligations under (and shall be governed by the terms of) this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, upon the effectiveness hereof, (i) all Existing Letters of Credit shall continue as Facility LCs under (and shall be governed by the terms
of) this Agreement as provided in Section 2.19.13 and (ii) the Agent shall make such reallocations of each Lender’s share of the outstanding Loans under the Existing Credit Agreement as are necessary in 

  

 117 

 
order that each such Lender’s share of the outstanding Loans hereunder reflects such Lender’s ratable share of the Aggregate Revolving Loan
Commitment and Aggregate Term Loan Commitment hereunder. On the Closing Date, the Company shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders then party to the Existing Credit Agreement, (i) accrued and unpaid commitment fees under
the Existing Credit Agreement through the Closing Date and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on Loans under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement through the Closing Date. 
 17.2. References to This Agreement In Loan Documents. All references herein to “hereunder,” “hereof,” or words of like import
and all references in any other Loan Document to the “Credit Agreement” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Existing Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby (and any section references in such Loan
Documents to the Existing Credit Agreement shall refer to the applicable equivalent provision set forth herein although the section number thereof may have changed). 
 17.3. Departing Lenders. Each Departing Lender has agreed to execute and deliver a Departing Lender Signature Page, pursuant to which such Departing Lender shall cease to be a party to the Existing Credit
Agreement, each Departing Lender’s “Revolving Loan Commitment” under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement shall be terminated and each Departing Lender shall not be a Lender hereunder (provided that the indemnities and
obligations of the Company contained in Section 9.6 of the Existing Credit Agreement in favor of each Departing Lender shall survive the termination of such Departing Lender’s “Revolving Loan Commitment” under the Existing Credit
Agreement).
