apply if the invalidity of the provision results from a measure of performance or time set as a standard in this Agreement; in such cases, a legally valid measure of performance or time which comes as close as possible to that originally agreed
shall be deemed agreed upon instead.

(c) Each Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent. Such notice must be
given in the form of a Loan Notice and must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, three Business Days prior to the date of the requested Borrowing
(except that for Eurodollar Rate Borrowings to be made on the Closing Date, such Loan Notice must only be received by the Administrative Agent two Business Days prior to the Closing Date) or (ii) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, one
Business Day prior to the date of the requested Borrowing. 
 (d) Each Loan Notice shall specify the following information in
compliance with this Section 2.02: (i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; (ii) the date of such requested Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) whether such Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing
or Eurodollar Rate Borrowing; (iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period selected therefor; and (vi) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed. 

  
 24 

 (e) Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
Lender of the amount of its Applicable Percentage under the Term Facility. Each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than
one hour after receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date (as long as such notice is received prior to 1:30 p.m. (New York City time) on such day). Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in
Section 4.01, the Administrative Agent shall promptly make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent by wire transfer of such funds in accordance with instructions provided to
(and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower. 
 (f) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to each Interest Period for the Term Loans upon determination of such interest rate. 
 (g) If no election as to the Type of a Borrowing is specified in the applicable Loan Notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to
any requested Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 2.03 Prepayments. 
 (a) Optional. (i) The Borrower may, upon
delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Prepayment Notice, voluntarily prepay the Term Loans, in whole or in part (together with all accrued interest on the principal amount of the Term Loans so prepaid), at any time without premium or penalty,
subject to the provisions of Section 3.03. 
 (ii) Notice under this Section 2.03(a) must be received by
the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date of prepayment; and any prepayment shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the entire principal
amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable
portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage). If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date
specified therein. Each prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(a) shall be applied to the Term Facility as directed by the Borrower and shall be paid to the Lenders under the Term Facility in accordance with their
respective Applicable Percentages. 
 (b) Mandatory. 

(i) Subject to clause (iv) of this Section 2.03(b), if the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries Disposes of any property (other than any Disposition permitted under Section 7.05 (other than clause (d) thereof)) which results in the realization by such Person of Net Cash Proceeds or the Borrower or any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries receives any Net Cash Proceeds of casualty insurance or condemnation awards, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds (or in the case of a Restricted
Subsidiary that is not directly or indirectly wholly owned by the Borrower, in such lesser amount of Net Cash Proceeds as are actually received by the Borrower or a wholly owned 

  
 25 

 
Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower), together with all accrued interest thereon and any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.03, such prepayment to occur (subject to
the provisions below and to clause (iv) of this Section 2.03(b)) within 10 Business Days following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by such Person; provided, however, that, (x) with respect to any Net Cash
Proceeds realized under a Disposition described in this Section 2.03(b)(i), at the election of the Borrower (as notified by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date of such Disposition), and so long as no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in operating assets, provided that, (i) within 180 days after the receipt of such Net
Cash Proceeds, the Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, has reinvested the Net Cash Proceeds into operating assets or (ii) where such Net Cash Proceeds have not been reinvested within 180 days after the receipt of such Net Cash
Proceeds, the Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary shall have entered into a binding agreement for such reinvestment and such reinvestment shall have been consummated within 180 days after entering into such reinvestment agreement (as certified by the
Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent); and (y) with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds of casualty insurance or condemnation awards, at the election of the Borrower (as notified by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on or prior
to the date of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds of casualty insurance or condemnation awards), and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply within 180 days after the
receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds to replace or repair the equipment, fixed assets or real property in respect of which such Net Cash Proceeds were received; and provided that any Net Cash Proceeds referred to above in (x) or
(y) to be so reinvested shall be deposited in the Cash Collateral Account pending such reinvestment and, provided, further, that any amount referred to above in (x) or (y) which is not so reinvested
within the time specified therein shall be applied as set forth in clause (iv) of this Section 2.03(b). 
 (ii) Subject to clause (iv) of this Section 2.03(b), upon the sale or issuance by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any of its Equity Interests (other than
Excluded Issuances and any sales or issuances of Equity Interests to another Loan Party), the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans equal to 50% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom immediately upon receipt thereof
by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary. 
 (iii) Subject to clause (iv) of this
Section 2.03(b), upon the incurrence or issuance by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of any Indebtedness not permitted under Section 7.02, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term
Loans equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom immediately upon receipt thereof by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary. 
 (iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, prepayments made and required to be made by the Borrower under this Section 2.03(b), together with repayments made and required to be made
by the Borrower under Section 2.04, (a) prior to July 29, 2013 shall not exceed an aggregate amount of $155,000,000, (b) prior to July 29, 2014 shall not exceed an aggregate amount of $190,000,000, (c) prior to
July 29, 2015 shall not exceed an aggregate amount of $225,000,000, and (d) prior to the Maturity Date shall not exceed an aggregate amount of $260,000,000. 

(v) Each prepayment of Term Loans made prior to the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) shall be
applied, first, in direct order of maturities, to any principal repayment installments of the Term Facility that are due within 12 months after the date of such prepayment, second, on a pro rata basis, to the other principal repayment
installments of the Term Facility, and shall be paid to the Lenders under the Term Facility in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages. 

  
 26 

 2.04 Amortization and Repayment of Term Loans. Subject to
Section 2.03(b)(iv), the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Lenders, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding in consecutive semi-annual installments, as set forth below
(which installments shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in the applicable provisions of Section 2.03); provided, however, that the final
principal repayment installment of the Term Loans shall be repaid on the Maturity Date and in any event shall be in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding on such date:

 2.05 Interest Elections. 
 (a) The Term Loans comprising each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Loan Notice and, in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, shall have the Interest Period
specified in such Loan Notice. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type and, in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, may elect
the Interest Period therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.05. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among
the Lenders holding the Term Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Term Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. 
 (b) Each such election pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent. Each such notice shall be in the form of a written
Interest Election Request in substantially the form of Exhibit L, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, or may be given by telephone to the Administrative Agent (if immediately confirmed in writing
by delivery of such a written Interest Election Request consistent with such telephonic notice) and must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than the time that a Loan Notice would be required under Section 2.02 if the
Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. 
 (c) Each Interest Election Request pursuant to this Section shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect
to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting
Borrowing); 

  
 27 

 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest
Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate
Borrowing or Eurodollar Rate Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing,
the Interest Period therefor after giving effect to such election. 
 (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election
Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such
Eurodollar Rate Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected that such Eurodollar Rate Borrowing shall automatically be continued as, or converted to, as applicable, a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing with an
Interest Period of one month at the end of such Interest Period. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies
the Borrower, then, so long as such Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Rate Borrowing shall automatically be
converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period therefor. 
 2.06 Interest. 

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(b), (i) each Base Rate Loan under the Term Facility shall bear interest at
a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans under the Term Facility; and (ii) each Eurodollar Rate Loan under the Term Facility shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the
Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period therefor plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans under the Term Facility. 
 (b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter
bear interest at an interest rate per annum at all times equal to the applicable Default Rate, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 
 (ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise, then such amount shall thereafter bear interest at an interest rate per annum at all times equal to the applicable Default Rate, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

(iii) While any Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding
Obligations hereunder at an interest rate per annum at all times equal to the applicable Default Rate, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

  
 28 

 (iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on
past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. 
 (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on
each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 
 2.07 Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account
of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, an upfront fee equal to 0.50% of the Aggregate Term Commitments. The upfront fee referred to in the preceding sentence shall be fully earned, due and payable in full on the Closing Date.

 2.08 Computation of Interest and Fees. All fees and interest payable under this Agreement shall be computed
(a) in the case of any Eurodollar Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360-day year (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year), and (b) in the case of any Base Rate Loans,
on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in all cases shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Term Loan for the day on which the Term Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a
Term Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Term Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Term Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.10(a), bear interest for one
day. The applicable Base Rate or Eurodollar Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. 

2.09 Evidence of Debt. The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such
Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be presumptively conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Term Loans made by
the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the
Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall
control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Term Note, which shall evidence such
Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Term Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. 

2.10 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. 

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative
Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage in respect of
the Term Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time)
shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next
following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected on computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 
  

  
 29 

 (b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the Closing Date that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, as applicable, the Administrative Agent may
assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such
event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the Borrowings available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount
in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be
made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the
interest rate (including any Applicable Margin) otherwise applicable to the Term Loan. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Term Loan
included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

(ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the Borrower prior to the time at which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment
on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agree
to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the
date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection
(b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender
makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Term Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent
because the conditions to the Term Loans set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such
Lender, without interest. 
 (d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term
Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 12.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under Section 12.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any
other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to make its payment under Section 12.04(c). 

  
 30 

 (e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain
the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 

(f) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully
all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then
due to such parties. 
 2.11 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or
counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (a) Obligations due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount
of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations
due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (b) Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at
such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and
payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Parties at such time) of payment on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the
Lenders at such time then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Term Loans of the other Lenders, or make such
other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Obligations then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to
the Lenders, as the case may be, provided that: 
 (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or
any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and 

(ii) the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the
Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other
than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.11 shall apply). 
 Each Loan Party
consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation 
 2.12 Inability to Determine Rates. If prior to the commencement of the Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing: 

  
 31 

 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period; or 
 (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining
their respective Term Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to
the Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request
that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or the continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or converted to, a Base Rate Borrowing and
(ii) if any Loan Notice requests a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing. 

2.13 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that
it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Term Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any
Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower (through the
Administrative Agent), (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender
making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be
determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no
longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the
interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the
Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts
the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the
Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate. Upon any such prepayment or
conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.03.

 ARTICLE III 
 TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
 3.01 Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall
be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from
any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten days after demand therefor, for the
full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment
to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of
such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten days after demand
therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to
do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender,
in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted
by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent
to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this
paragraph (d). 
 (e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to
a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.01, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the
return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (f)
Status of Lenders. 
 (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax
with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the 

  
 33 

 
Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such
other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Section 3.01(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or
expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii) Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Borrower is a U.S. Person, 
 (A) any Lender that is a U.S.
Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or
prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(I) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party
(x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax
treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other
income” article of such tax treaty; 
 (II) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(III) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under
Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the
meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form
W-8BEN; or 

  
 34 

 (iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed
originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign
Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect
partner; 
 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request
of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary
documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by
FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under
FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any
amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or
becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to
such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than
any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph
(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this paragraph (g), 

  
 35 

 
in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in
a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any
indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 3.02 Increased Costs. 
 (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change
in Law shall: 
 (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender; 
 (ii)
subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters
of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement
or Term Loans made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other
Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of
principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or other
Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender shall be entitled to request compensation for increased costs or expenses described in this Section 3.02(a)
only to the extent it is the general practice or policy of such Lender to request such compensation from other borrowers under comparable facilities under similar circumstances. 

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such
Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if
any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Term Commitments of such Lender or the Term Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking
into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) Certificates for Reimbursement.
A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 3.02 and
delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof. 

  
 36 

 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this
Section 3.02 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such
Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof). 
 3.03 Compensation for Losses. Upon written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) from time to time, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating such compensation, the Borrower shall promptly after such demand compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or
expense incurred by it as a result of (a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Term Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by
reason of acceleration, or otherwise); (b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Term Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Eurodollar Rate Loan on the date or in the amount
notified by the Borrower; or (c) any assignment of such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to Sections 3.04 and/or 12.13 on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor, including, in each case, any loss
or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower
shall not be obligated to compensate any Lender under this Section 3.03 for any loss of anticipated profits in respect of any of the foregoing. 
 3.04 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 
 (a) Designation
of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.02, or the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any
Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, then such Lender (at the request of the Borrower) shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.02, as the case may
be, in the future, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred
by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender
requests compensation under Section 3.02, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, the Borrower may
replace such Lender in accordance with Section 12.13. 
 3.05 Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any
Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 

  
 37 

 (i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to
approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders. 
 (ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or
mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article IX or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the
Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the
funding of any Term Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Term Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts
owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so
long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such
Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the
principal amount of any Term Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Term Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 were satisfied or
waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Term Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Term Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Term Loans are held by the
Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Term Commitments under the Term Facility. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to
this Section 3.05(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto,
whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected
parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

3.06 Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive the resignation or
replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Term Commitments and repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. 

  
 38

 41 

 ARTICLE V 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 The Borrower and the Parent Guarantor represent
and warrant as of the Closing Date to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that: 
 5.01 Existence, Qualification and
Power. The Borrower is a limited liability company or corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization and is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in all
jurisdictions in which such qualification is necessary in view of the properties and assets owned and presently intended to be owned and the business transacted and presently intended to be transacted by it except for qualifications the lack of
which, singly or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse Effect, and each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries has full power, authority and legal right to perform its obligations
under this Agreement, the Term Notes and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. 
 5.02 Subsidiaries; Affiliates;
Loan Parties. Schedule 1.01 contains a complete and correct list, as at the Closing Date, of all Subsidiaries of the Borrower and a description of the legal nature of such Subsidiaries (including, with respect to each Subsidiary, the
address of its principal place of business and its U.S. taxpayer identification number), the nature of the ownership interests (shares of stock or general or limited partnership or other interests) in such Subsidiaries and the holders of such
interests and, except as disclosed to the Lenders in writing prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries owns all of the ownership interests of its Subsidiaries indicated in such Schedules as being owned by the
Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, free and clear of all Liens except those created under the Collateral Documents, and all such ownership interests are validly issued and, in the case of shares of stock, fully paid and
non-assessable. 
 5.03 Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by each of the Borrower
and the Restricted Subsidiaries of each Loan Document and Related Document to which it is a party, and the Term Loans hereunder, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action and do not and will
not: (a) violate any Law currently in effect (other than violations that, singly or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse Effect), or any provision of any of the Borrower’s or
the Restricted Subsidiaries’ respective charters, by-laws or membership agreements presently in effect; (b) conflict with or result in the breach of, or constitute a default or require any consent (except for the consents described on
Schedule 5.03 hereto, each of which has been duly obtained) under, or require any payment to be made (other than in the case of Contractual Obligations that are satisfied and terminated in full on the Closing Date concurrently with the
consummation of the Transaction) under (i) any Contractual Obligation to which the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or their respective properties may be bound or affected or (ii) any order, injunction, writ or
decree of any Governmental Authority or any arbitral award to which the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or their respective properties are subject (in each case under Section 5.03(b)(i) and (ii), other than any
conflict, breach, default or required consent that, singly or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse Effect); or (c) except as provided under any Loan Document, result in, or require,
the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any of the properties or assets now owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries. 

  
 42 

 5.04 Financial Statements. The Borrower has, pursuant to
Section 4.01(a)(x), furnished to each Lender prior to the Closing Date: 
 (a) the Audited Financial
Statements; and 
 (b) the unaudited financial statements of the Parent Guarantor for any interim quarterly
periods that have ended since the most recent of such Audited Financial Statements and at least 45 days prior to the Closing Date. 
 All financial statements referred to above in clauses (a) and (b), (i) are complete and correct in all material respects (subject, in the case of the unaudited financial statements
referred to above, to year-end and audit adjustments), (ii) were prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the period covered thereby, except as otherwise expressly noted therein, and (iii) fairly present the
consolidated financial condition of the Parent Guarantor as at the respective dates of the balance sheets included in such financial statements and the results of operations of such entity or groups of entities for the respective periods ended on
said dates. 
 None of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries had on any of said dates any material contingent
liabilities, liabilities for Taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments or unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments or operations which are substantial in amount, except as referred to or reflected or provided for in
said financial statements of the Borrower and its consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries as at said respective dates or as disclosed to the Lenders in writing prior to the Closing Date and except as would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed to the Lenders in writing prior to the Closing Date, since June 24, 2012, there has been no change in the financial condition (from that shown by the
respective balance sheets as at June 24, 2012 included in said financial statements) of the businesses or operations of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole except for changes that would not reasonably be expected to
have a Materially Adverse Effect (after giving effect to the Indebtedness contemplated to be incurred on the Closing Date and the use of proceeds thereof). 
 5.05 Litigation; Compliance with Laws. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes pending, or to the knowledge of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary threatened, against the
Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective properties or assets, before any court or arbitrator or by or before any Governmental Authority that, singly or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Materially
Adverse Effect. None of the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary is in default under or in violation of or with respect to any Laws or any writ, injunction or decree of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority except for minor defaults
which, if continued unremedied, would not reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse Effect.
 5.06 Titles and
Liens. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.06, each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries has good title to its properties and assets, free and clear of all Liens except those permitted by Section 7.01 hereof.

 5.07 Regulation U; Investment Company Act. 
 (a) None of the proceeds of the Term Loans shall be used to purchase or carry, or to reduce or retire or refinance any credit incurred to purchase or carry, any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others
for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. If requested by any Lender, the Borrower will furnish to the Lenders statements in conformity with the requirements of Regulation U. 

  
 43 

 (b) None of the Borrower, the Parent Guarantor, NMG Holdings, or any Restricted Subsidiary

property of the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, provided that none of the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiaries shall be required to pay any such Tax, fee or other claim as to which the Borrower or the Restricted
Subsidiaries have a good faith basis to believe is not due and owing and, to the extent then appropriate, the payment thereof is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, provided that it maintains adequate reserves in accordance with
GAAP with respect thereto.

behalf of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries) will maintain insurance issued by financially sound and reputable insurance companies with respect to its properties and business in such amounts and against such risks as is usually carried by

to the insurance maintained in accordance with this Section 6.03.

applicable Laws (including but not limited to Environmental Laws) and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees of any Governmental Authority, a breach of which Laws, orders, writs, injunctions or decrees would be reasonably expected to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Materially Adverse Effect, except where contested in good faith and by proper proceedings if it maintains adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP with respect thereto.

 6.07 Litigation. Each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries will promptly
give to the Administrative Agent notice in writing (and the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender) of all actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes before any courts, arbitrators or Governmental Authority against it or, to its
knowledge, otherwise affecting it or any of its respective properties or assets, except actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes which would not be reasonably expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Materially Adverse
Effect. Following the initial notice of each such action, suit, proceeding, claim or dispute, supplementary notices of all material developments in respect thereof shall be given from time to time in like manner. The parties hereby
acknowledge that the prompt notice required by this Section 6.07 shall be satisfied by public reporting of such actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes by the Borrower, CSC Holdings or Cablevision with the SEC in a filing made

Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Closing Date so long as (a) no Default or Event of Default exists or would result therefrom, (b) such Subsidiary does not own any capital stock or Indebtedness of, or own or hold a Lien on any property of
CSC Holdings, NMG Holdings, the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not a subsidiary of the Subsidiary to be so designated, and (c) such Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be capitalized (to the
extent capitalized by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) through Investments permitted by, and in compliance with, Section 7.03(h) with any assets owned by such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time of the initial designation thereof
to be treated as Investments pursuant to Section 7.03(h); provided that at the time of the initial Investment, the Borrower shall designate such entity as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in a written notice to the Administrative Agent.
The Borrower may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Agreement (each, a “Subsidiary Redesignation”); provided that (i) such Unrestricted Subsidiary, both before and

which entries that are full, true and correct in all material respects and are in conformity with GAAP consistently applied shall be made of all material financial transactions and material matters involving the assets and business of the Borrower
or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be; and (b) except to the extent failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Materially Adverse Effect, maintain such books of record and account in conformity with all applicable
requirements of any Governmental Authority having regulatory jurisdiction over the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be. 
 6.10 Use of Proceeds. Use the proceeds of the Term Loans (i) to finance the Transaction, and (ii) for general corporate purposes not in contravention of any Law or of any Loan Document.

or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary, any CFC or a Subsidiary that is held directly or indirectly by a CFC) by any Loan Party or (y) the acquisition of any property by any Loan Party if such property, in
the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, shall not already be subject to a perfected first priority security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, then the Borrower shall, at the
Borrower’s expense: 
 (a) within 30 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree
in its reasonable discretion) after such formation or acquisition, cause such Subsidiary (if it has not already done so), to duly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a guaranty or guaranty supplement, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, guaranteeing the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents, 

(b) within 30 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) after such
formation or acquisition, furnish to the Administrative Agent a description of the real and personal properties of such Subsidiary or such newly-acquired property, in detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, 

(c) within 45 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) after such

representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing (and to permit the taking of the actions described above within the required time
periods, rather than as elsewhere provided in the Loan Documents); provided, that (i) to the extent any representation and warranty would not be true because the foregoing actions were not taken on the Closing Date, the respective
representation and warranty shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects at the time the respective action is taken (or was required to be taken) in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.12 (and
Schedule 6.12) and (ii) all representations and warranties relating to the Collateral Documents shall be required to be true in all material respects immediately after the actions required to be taken by this Section 6.12

Documents required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 8.02(a) (to the extent any such documents are included in
materials otherwise filed with the SEC) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date on which such documents are posted on CSC Holdings’ behalf on an Internet or intranet website, if

corporate existence and that of each CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary and the corporate rights (charter and statutory), corporate licenses of CSC Holdings and the CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiaries, except where a failure to do so, singly or in
the aggregate, is not likely to have a Materially Adverse CSC Effect; provided that CSC Holdings shall not be required to preserve any such existence (except of CSC Holdings), right, license or franchise if the board of directors of CSC Holdings or
the board of directors of the CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary concerned shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of CSC Holdings or such CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary and that the
loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Lenders.

Taxes and Other Claims. CSC Holdings shall pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (a) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon it or any CSC

 64 

 
Holdings’ Subsidiaries and (b) all material lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which, if unpaid, might by law become a CSC Holdings Lien upon the property of CSC Holdings
or any CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that CSC Holdings shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and as to which adequate reserves have been provided.

Restricted Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in normal condition, repair and working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted; provided that nothing in this Section 8.02(d) shall prevent CSC Holdings or any CSC Holdings
Restricted Subsidiary from discontinuing the use, operation or maintenance of any of such properties, or disposing of any of them, if such discontinuance or disposal is, in the judgment of the board of directors of CSC Holdings or the board of
directors of the CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary concerned, or of any officer (or other agent employed by CSC Holdings or any CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary) of CSC Holdings or such CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary having managerial
responsibility for any such property, desirable in the conduct of the business of CSC Holdings or any CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary and if such discontinuance or disposal is not adverse in any material respect to the Lenders. 

CSC Holdings shall provide or cause to be provided for itself and any CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiaries, insurance
(including appropriate self-insurance) against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by corporations similarly situated and owning like properties in the same general areas in which CSC Holdings or such CSC Holdings Restricted
Subsidiaries operate. 
 (e) CSC Holdings’ Indebtedness. CSC Holdings shall not, and shall not permit
any CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly incur, create, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable for, contingently or otherwise, or become responsible for the payment of, contingently or otherwise, any CSC
Holdings Indebtedness (other than CSC Holdings Indebtedness between or among any of CSC Holdings and the CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiaries) unless, after giving effect thereto, the Cash Flow Ratio shall be less than or equal to 9 to 1.

 (f) CSC Holdings’ Liens. CSC Holdings shall not, and shall not permit any CSC Holdings Restricted
Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly incur, create, issue, assume, or suffer to exist any CSC Holdings Lien of any kind, except for CSC Holdings Permitted Liens, on or with respect to any of its property or assets, whether owned at the Closing Date
or thereafter acquired, or any income, profits or proceeds therefrom, or assign or otherwise convey any right to receive income thereon, unless (x) in the case of any CSC Holdings Lien securing CSC Holdings Indebtedness that is subordinated in
right of payment to the Guaranty pursuant to Section 11.01, the Guaranty pursuant to Section 11.01 is secured by a CSC Holdings Lien on such property, assets or proceeds that is senior in priority to such CSC Holdings Lien
and (y) in the case of any other CSC Holdings Lien, the Guaranty pursuant to Section 11.01 is equally and ratably secured. 
 (g) CSC Holdings’ Restricted Payments. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.02(g), CSC Holdings shall not, and shall not permit any CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary to
make any CSC Holdings Restricted Payment if (a) at the time of such proposed CSC Holdings Restricted Payment, a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a consequence of such CSC Holdings Restricted
Payment or 

  
 65 

 
(b) immediately after giving effect to such CSC Holdings Restricted Payment, the aggregate of all CSC Holdings Restricted Payments shall exceed the sum of $2.7 billion plus an amount equal
to the difference between the (i) Cumulative Cash Flow Credit and (ii) 1.2 multiplied by Cumulative Interest Expense. 
 For purposes of this Section 8.02(g), the amount of any CSC Holdings Restricted Payment, if other than cash, shall be based upon fair market value as determined by the board of directors of
CSC Holdings, whose good faith determination shall be conclusive. 
 The foregoing provisions of this
Section 8.02(g) shall not prevent (i) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at such date of declaration such payment complied with the foregoing provisions of this
Section 8.02(g); and (ii) retirement, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other acquisition of any share of the capital stock of CSC Holdings or warrants, rights or options to acquire capital stock of CSC Holdings in exchange for,
or out of the proceeds of a sale (within one year before or 180 days after such retirement, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other acquisition) of, other shares of the capital stock of CSC Holdings or warrants, rights or options to acquire
capital stock of CSC Holdings. For purposes of determining the aggregate permissible amount of CSC Holdings Restricted Payments in accordance with clause (b) of the first paragraph of this Section 8.02(g), all amounts
expended pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall be included and all amounts expended or received pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph shall be excluded; provided, however, that amounts paid pursuant
to clause (i) of this paragraph shall be included only to the extent that such amounts were not previously included in calculating CSC Holdings Restricted Payments. 

For the purposes of this Section 8.02(g), the net proceeds from the issuance of shares of capital stock of CSC
Holdings upon conversion of CSC Holdings Indebtedness shall be deemed to be an amount equal to (i) the accreted value of such CSC Holdings Indebtedness on the date of such conversion and (ii) the additional consideration, if any, received
by CSC Holdings upon such conversion thereof, less any cash payment on account of fractional share (such consideration, if in property other than cash, to be determined by the board of directors of CSC Holdings, whose good faith determination shall
be conclusive and evidenced by a board resolution). If CSC Holdings makes a CSC Holdings Restricted Payment which, at the time of the making of such CSC Holdings Restricted Payment, would in the good faith determination of CSC Holdings be permitted
under the requirements of this Section 8.02(g), such CSC Holdings Restricted Payment shall be deemed to have been made in compliance with this Section 8.02(g) notwithstanding any subsequent adjustments made in good faith to
CSC Holdings’ financial statements affecting Cumulative Cash Flow Credit or Cumulative Interest Expense for any period. 
 (h) CSC Holdings’ Investments. CSC Holdings shall not, and shall not permit any CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, (a) make any CSC Holdings Investment or
(b) allow any CSC Holdings Restricted Subsidiary to become a CSC Holdings Unrestricted Subsidiary, in each case, unless (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a consequence of such
Investment and (ii) after giving effect thereto, the Cash Flow Ratio shall be less than or equal to 9 to 1. 

The foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02(h) shall not prohibit (a) any renewal or reclassification
of any CSC Holdings Investment existing on the Closing Date or (b) trade credit extended on usual and customary terms in the ordinary course of business. 

  
 66 

 (i) CSC Holdings’ Transactions with Affiliates. CSC Holdings
shall not, and shall not permit any CSC Holdings Subsidiaries to sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into any contract, agreement, understanding, loan,
advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, an Affiliate of CSC Holdings that is not a CSC Holdings Subsidiary, having a value, or for consideration having a value, in excess of $10,000,000 individually or in the aggregate unless the Board of
Directors of CSC Holdings shall make a good faith determination that the terms of such transaction are, taken as a whole, no less favorable to CSC Holdings or such CSC Holdings Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those which might be available in a
comparable transaction with an unrelated Person. For purposes of clarification, this Section 8.02(i) shall not apply to any CSC Holdings Restricted Payment permitted by Section 8.02(g). 

(j) CSC Holdings May Consolidate, Etc., Only on Certain Terms. (A) CSC Holdings shall not consolidate or merge
with or into, or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, any Person, unless: 
 (i) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than CSC Holdings), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or disposition shall have been made, is
a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and shall assume by joinder hereto all the obligations of CSC Holdings under the Guaranty hereunder; 

(ii) immediately before and immediately after such transaction, and after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 
 (iii) immediately after such transaction, and after giving
effect thereto, the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger, or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance or disposition shall have been made (the “successor”), shall have a Cash Flow Ratio not in
excess of 9 to 1; and 
 (iv) CSC Holdings has delivered to the Administrative Agent an officer’s
certificate and an opinion of counsel, stating, as applicable to an officer’s certificate or opinion as the case may be, that such consolidation, merger or transfer complies with this Section 8.02(j) and that all conditions
precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with. 
 Cash Flow Ratio for the purposes of this
Section 8.02(j) shall be computed as if any such successor were CSC Holdings. 
 (B) Upon any
consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease or conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets, of CSC Holdings in accordance with Section 8.02(j), the successor Person formed by such
consolidation or into which CSC Holdings is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, CSC Holdings under
this Agreement with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as CSC Holdings herein. When a successor assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, the predecessor shall be released from those obligations.

 ARTICLE X 

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 10.01 Appointment and Authorization of Agents. 
 (a) Each Lender hereby
irrevocably appoints Barclays to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to
the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of the Agents and

  
 72 

 
the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any
other Loan Document (or any other similar term) with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter
of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “Collateral Agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender, potential Hedge Bank and potential
Cash Management Bank) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to
secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to Section 10.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the
Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article X and Article XII (including Section 12.04(c)), as though such sub-agents were the “Collateral Agent” under the Loan
Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 
 10.02 Rights as a Lender. Any Agent shall have the
same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent hereunder, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless
the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as such Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other
advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 

10.03 Exculpatory Provisions. 
 (a) No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall: (i) be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except (in the case of the Administrative Agent) discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its
opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under
any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and (iii) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have
any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of
the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be 

  
 73 

 
necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Article IX and Section 12.01), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have
received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. 
 (c) No Agent-Related Person shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other
terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or
(v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than (in the case of the Administrative Agent) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to it. 

10.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying
upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed,
sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In
determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the Borrowings that by its terms shall be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the Borrowings. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts
selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 10.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or
more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory
provisions of this Article X shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Term
Facility as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and
nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents. 
 10.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. Each Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of
resignation, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent (which may be an Affiliate of a Lender), with the consent of the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under
Section 9.01(b), (e) or (f) (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment prior
to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the 

  
 74 

 
Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance
with such notice on such effective date, where (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by
the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is
appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a
successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of
the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent
shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this
Article X and Section 12.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them
while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 10.07 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other
Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made
its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such
documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document
furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 10.08 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Term Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Term
Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.07 and 12.04) allowed
in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

  
 75 

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any
such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the
Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.07 and
12.04. 
 10.09 Duties of Other Agents. None of the Agents (other than the Administrative Agent) identified on the
cover page or signature pages of this Agreement shall have any rights, powers, obligations, liabilities, responsibilities or duties under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender
hereunder. Without limiting any other provision of this Article X, none of such Agents in their respective capacities as such shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or any other Person by reason of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document. 
 10.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the
Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, 
 (a) to release any Lien on any property granted to
or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Term Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations), (ii) that is sold or to be sold
as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 12.01; 

(b) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result
of a transaction permitted hereunder; and 
 (c) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by
the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(i). 
 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or
items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 10.10. In each case as specified in this Section 10.10, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s
expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or
to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 10.10. 

ARTICLE XI 

CONTINUING GUARANTY 
 11.01 Guaranty. CSC Holdings hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, as a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely as a guaranty of collection, prompt payment when due, whether
at stated maturity, by required prepayment, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of any and all of the Obligations, whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, damages, costs, expenses or otherwise,
of the Borrower to the Secured Parties, 
 arising 

  
 76 

 
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including all renewals, extensions, amendments, refinancings and other modifications thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses
incurred by the Secured Parties in connection with the collection or enforcement thereof). The Administrative Agent’s books and records showing the amount of the Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall
be binding upon CSC Holdings, and conclusive for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Obligations absent manifest error. This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Obligations or
any instrument or agreement evidencing any Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Obligations which might otherwise
constitute a defense to the obligations of CSC Holdings under this Guaranty, and CSC Holdings hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing. 

11.02 Rights of Lenders. CSC Holdings consents and agrees that the Secured Parties may, at any time and from time to time, without
notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Obligations or any part
thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Obligations; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale
thereof as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in their sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, CSC Holdings consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of CSC Holdings under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of CSC
Holdings. 
 11.03 Certain Waivers. CSC Holdings waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other
defense of the Borrower or any other Guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Secured Party) of the liability of the Borrower; (b) any defense based on any claim that CSC Holdings’
obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Borrower; (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting CSC Holdings’ liability hereunder; (d) any right to proceed against the Borrower, proceed against or exhaust
any security for the Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; (e) any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party; and (f) to the fullest
extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties. CSC Holdings expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and
all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, and
all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Obligations. 

11.04 Obligations Independent. The obligations of CSC Holdings hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety,
and are independent of the Obligations and the obligations of any other guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against CSC Holdings to enforce this Guaranty whether or not the Borrower or any other person or entity is joined as a party.

 11.05 Subrogation. 
 (a) CSC Holdings shall not exercise any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty (other than its rights to
make a claim under the Indemnity Agreement as in effect on the date hereof) until all of the Obligations and any amounts payable under this Guaranty have been indefeasibly paid and 

  
 77 

 
performed in full and the Term Commitments and the Term Facility is terminated. If any amounts are paid to CSC Holdings in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held
in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Secured Parties to reduce the amount of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 
 (b) To the extent CSC Holdings has notified the Administrative Agent that Tribune has reimbursed CSC Holdings for any payments made by CSC Holdings in respect of principal, premium or interest on the Term
Loans (but excluding any costs, fees, expenses, penalties, charges or similar items paid or payable by CSC Holdings) under and in accordance with this Guaranty, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders shall, after the Obligations have
been paid in full in cash and fully performed, the Term Commitments and the Term Facility have been terminated and the security interest of the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders in all of the Collateral has been released, assign to
Tribune, at the expense of Tribune, without recourse or representation of any kind, the remaining rights (if any) in a specified portion of the Collateral (such Collateral to be determined by CSC Holdings and the Administrative Agent in their sole
discretion). Tribune’s rights in any such Collateral will be on a second-priority basis, as determined by CSC Holdings. 

11.06 Termination; Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Obligations now or hereafter
existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Term Commitments and the Term Facility with respect to the Obligations are
terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or CSC Holdings is made, or any of the Secured Parties exercises its
right of setoff, in respect of the Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement
entered into by any of the Secured Parties in their discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such
setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Secured Parties are in possession of or have released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction. The obligations of CSC Holdings under this paragraph
shall survive termination of this Guaranty. 
 11.07 Subordination. CSC Holdings hereby subordinates the payment of all
obligations and indebtedness of the Borrower owing to CSC Holdings, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including but not limited to any obligation of the Borrower to CSC Holdings as subrogee of the Secured Parties or resulting from CSC
Holdings’ performance under this Guaranty, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations. If the Secured Parties so request, any such obligation or indebtedness of the Borrower to CSC Holdings shall be enforced and performance
received by CSC Holdings as trustee for the Secured Parties and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Secured Parties on account of the Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of CSC Holdings under this
Guaranty. 
 11.08 Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed, in
connection with any case commenced by or against CSC Holdings or the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by CSC Holdings immediately upon demand by the Secured Parties. 

11.09 Condition of Borrower. CSC Holdings acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has adequate means
of, obtaining from the Borrower and any other Guarantor such information concerning the financial condition, business and operations of the Borrower and any such other Guarantor as CSC Holdings requires, and that none of the Secured Parties has any
duty, and 

  
 78 

 
CSC Holdings is not relying on the Secured Parties at any time, to disclose to CSC Holdings any information relating to the business, operations or financial condition of the Borrower or any
other 
 Guarantor (CSC Holdings waiving any duty on the part of the Secured Parties to disclose such information and any defense relating to the
failure to provide the same). 
 ARTICLE XII

(e) reduce the principal of, the Applicable Margin, or the rate of interest specified herein on any Loan or, any fees or

 (f)
change Section 2.03(a)(ii), Section 2.03(b)(v), Section 2.11, or Section 9.03 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender;

each Lender, except to the extent the release of any Subsidiary from the Guaranty is permitted pursuant to Section 10.10 (in which case such release may be made by the Administrative Agent acting alone); or 

(j) amend or modify Section 9.01(i) or any defined term used therein or waive an Event of Default thereunder,
without the written consent of Lenders holding 90% or more of the sum of the Outstanding Amount; provided that the portion of the Outstanding Amount held or deemed held by, any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for purposes of making such
determination; 
 and provided, further, (i) that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the
Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (ii) each Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder
waived, in a writing executed only by each of the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Term
Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender. 
 If any Lender does not consent
to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of each Lender and that has been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower may replace such non-consenting Lender in accordance with
Section 12.13; provided that such amendment, waiver, consent or release can be effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be made
pursuant to this paragraph). 
 In addition, and notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.01 to the contrary, if
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent and

Lenders to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

effective as provided in such subsection (b). 
 (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications

particular notices or communications. 
 Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other

NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY,
INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM.
In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to CSC Holdings, the Borrower, any Lender, or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event
shall any Agent Party have any liability to CSC Holdings, the Borrower, any Lender, or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 

(d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of CSC Holdings, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may change its address, telecopier or
telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the

  
 81 

 
Borrower and the Administrative Agent. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an
effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees
to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public
Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the
“Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws. 

(e) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and
act upon any notices (including telephonic Loan Notice) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notice was not made in a manner specified herein, was incomplete or was not preceded or followed by any other form of
notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all
losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be
recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
 12.03 No Waiver;
Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as
a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers
and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties
or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.02 for the
benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as
Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 12.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.11) or (c) any Lender from filing
proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as
Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters
set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.11, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it as authorized by the
Required Lenders.

 12.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent
and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery
and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights
(A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout,
restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans. 
 (b) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall
indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), the Joint Leads, the Lenders and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee
harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related reasonable out of pocket documented expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable out of pocket and invoiced fees, disbursements and other charges of (i) one
counsel, (ii) in the case of a material conflict between two or more Indemnitees, as so determined in the reasonable opinion of existing counsel, one additional counsel, and (iii) one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction)
(collectively, the “Losses”), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower (but excluding any proceeding brought by a Lender against any other Lender (in such Lender’s
capacity as a Lender and not in any capacity as a Joint Lead or the Administrative Agent)), arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (A) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative
Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (B) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (C) any actual or prospective claim,
litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any of the Borrower’s or such Loan
Party’s directors, shareholders or creditors, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or related expenses have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct or material breach of the obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document of such Indemnitee. This Section 12.04(b)
shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. 
 (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this
Section 12.04 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), or such Related
Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified
loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or
any such sub-agent). The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(d). 

  
 83 

 (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to
in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications,
electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor.

 (f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the
replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Term Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 
 12.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its
right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the
Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation
or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum
equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

 12.06 Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.06(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of
Section 12.06(d), or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 12.06(e) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower or any other Loan Party
shall be null and void and any other attempted assignment or transfer by a Lender shall give rise to a participation in accordance with Section 12.06(d)). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon
any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related
Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

  
 84 

 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more
assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Term Commitment(s) and the Term Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the
following conditions: 
 (i) Minimum Amounts. 

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Term Commitment and the
Term Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Term Commitment
(which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Term Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Term Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date
the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000, unless each
of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent
assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes
of determining whether such minimum amount has been met. 
 (ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial
assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Term Loans or the Term Commitment assigned. 

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by
subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition, the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (1) any Term Commitment if such
assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Term Commitment hereunder, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender or (2) any Term Loan to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund. 
 (iv) Assignment and Assumption. Except with respect to the initial syndication of the
Term Loans following the Closing Date, the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided,
however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment and only one fee shall be payable for simultaneous assignments to or by two or more Approved
Funds. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

  
 85 

 (v) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to
the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or to any Dolan Family Interests. 
 (vi)
Additional Restrictions on Assignments. No such assignment shall be made (i) to a natural person, (ii) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) to any entity that is not a “qualified institutional
buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and a “qualified purchaser” as defined in Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act. 
 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.03, and 12.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to
the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Term Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not
comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 12.06(d). 

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the
Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Term Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Term Loans owing to,
each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in
the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (but only, in the case of a
Lender, at the Administrative Agent’s Office and with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Term Commitments, Term Loans and other Obligations), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon its
receipt of and, if required, consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 3.01
(unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this
Agreement unless and until it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (d) Participations. Any
Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or any
Dolan Family Interests) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Term Commitment and/or the Term Loans owing to it);
provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender
sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall 

  
 86 

 
retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may
provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 12.01 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.01(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 3.01(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)), 3.02, 3.03 and 3.06 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.06(b);
provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.04 and 12.13 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 12.06; and (B) shall not be
entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01 or 3.02, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the
Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 12.13 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 12.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting
solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Term Loans or other
obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any
information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such
commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender
shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its
capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register 
 (e) Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Term Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to
secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

12.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives
on a need to know basis (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by
any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any
subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or
Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any pledgee referred to in Section 12.06(e), or (iii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction
relating 

  
 87 

 
to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of
this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any other Loan Party. 

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof
relating to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party or any
Subsidiary thereof, provided that, in the case of information received from a Loan Party or any such Subsidiary after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. 

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information
concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with
applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws. 
 12.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits
(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower
or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made
any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding
such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its respective
Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

 12.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest
paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an
amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Term Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received
by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest,
(b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 

12.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This 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. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to
the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the 

  
 88 

 
subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the
Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other
electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this 
 Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, in
the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall control. 
 12.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in
connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by
the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as
any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. 
 12.12 Severability. If any provision of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or
impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal,
invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

12.13 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.02, or if the Borrower is required
to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01 and, in each case, such Lender has declined to, or is unable to, designate a different
Lending Office in accordance with Section 3.04(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or if any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Borrower the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then the Borrower may, at
its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by,
Section 12.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.02) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee
that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that: 
 (a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 12.06(b); 

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest
thereon, accrued fees, any applicable prepayment premium under Section 2.03 and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.03) from the assignee (to the
extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 
 (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.02 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will
result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 

  
 89 

 (d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and 

(e) in the case of any assignment pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 12.01 resulting from a
Lender becoming a non-consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. 
 A
Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

 12.14 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. 
 (a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 (b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE

AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. 
 (c) WAIVER OF VENUE. THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER
HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT. 
 (d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 12.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT

 12.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE

OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND

 12.16 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects
of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each of the Borrower and CSC Holdings acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its
Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and the Joint Leads, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, CSC
