THE CREDITS 
 2.01
Loans. 
 (a) Working Capital Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Bank severally agrees to make
loans (each such loan, a “Working Capital Loan”) to the Co-Borrowers from time to time, on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Bank’s
Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Borrowing: 
 (i) the aggregate amount of
Working Capital Loans plus the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Working Capital Line, or, if a Defaulting Bank exists hereunder, the Total Available Commitments, 

(ii) the Outstanding Working Capital Amount shall not exceed the lesser of (A) the Borrowing Base Advance Cap determined
as of the date of such request on the basis of the Collateral Position Report most recently received by the Agent pursuant to Section 7.02(b) two (2) Business Days prior to the date on which the requested Working Capital Loans are
to be made, or (B) the Collateral Position of the Co-Borrowers, 

  
 -38- 

 (iii) the aggregate Effective Amount of Working Capital Loans of any Bank,
plus such Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations shall not exceed such Bank’s Commitment, 

(iv) such Working Capital Loan, together with outstanding Working Capital Loans, does not exceed any applicable Advance
Sub-limit Cap, and 
 (v) the amount of such Working Capital Loan, plus the Effective Amount of all Working Capital Loans
made for the purpose described in the applicable Advance Sub-limit Cap, plus the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations relating to Letters of Credit Issued for such purpose shall not exceed the applicable Advance Sub-limit Cap. 

Within the limits of each Bank’s Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Co-Borrowers’ ability to
obtain Working Capital Loans shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Co-Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.01(a), prepay under Section 2.06, and re-borrow under this Section 2.01(a). Working Capital
Loans may be Base Rate Loans, COF Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein. 
 (b) [Reserved]. 

(c) [Reserved]. 
 (d)
Existing Advances. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, effective as of the Closing Date, in order to accommodate and orderly effect the reallocations, acquisitions, increases and decreases under this Section 2.01(d),
the outstanding Working Capital Loans under, and as defined in, the Existing Credit Agreement on the date hereof are (and shall be deemed to be) outstanding as Working Capital Loans made under this Agreement. Such obligations under the Existing
Credit Agreement shall be assigned, renewed, extended, modified, and rearranged as Obligations outstanding under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Existing Banks have agreed among themselves, in consultation with the Co-Borrowers, to
(A) reduce, increase, assign and reallocate their respective Commitments (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) as provided herein, (B) allow each Bank party hereto that is not an Existing Bank (each a “New Bank”)
to become a Bank hereunder by acquiring an interest in the aggregate Commitments (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement), and (C) adjust such Commitments (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) of the other Banks (each an
“Adjusting Bank”) accordingly. The Agent, the Existing Banks, and the Co-Borrowers consent to such adjustment, increases, decrease and reallocation and, if applicable, each New Bank’s acquisition of, and each Adjusting
Bank’s adjustment of, an interest in the Commitments (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and the Existing Banks’ partial assignments of their respective Commitments (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) pursuant to this
Section 2.01(d). On the Closing Date and after giving effect to such reallocations, adjustments, increases, assignments and decreases, the Commitment of each Bank shall be as set forth on Schedule 2.01. With respect to such
reallocations, adjustments, increases, acquisitions and decreases, each New Bank and Adjusting Bank increasing its aggregate Commitments shall be deemed to have acquired the Commitments allocated to it from each of the other Banks pursuant to the
terms of the Assignment and Assumptions attached as an exhibit to the Existing Credit Agreement as if each such New Bank and Adjusting Bank had executed such Assignment and Assumptions with respect to such allocation, increase, adjustment, and
decrease. The Banks 

  
 -39- 

 
shall make all appropriate adjustments and payments between and among themselves to account for the revised pro rata shares resulting from the initial allocation of the Banks’ Commitments
under this Agreement. 
 2.02 Increase in Commitments. 

(a) Subject to the conditions set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of this Section 2.02, Parent may request that the amount
of the aggregate Commitments be increased one or more times, in each case in a minimum amount of $5,000,000.00 or in integral multiples of $5,000,000.00 in excess thereof; provided that the aggregate Commitments after any such increase may
not exceed $120,000,000. 
 (b) Each such increase shall be effective only upon the following conditions being satisfied: (i) the Agent
and each Issuing Bank shall have approved such increase, each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time thereof or would be caused thereby, (iii) either
the Banks having Commitments hereunder at the time the increase is requested agree to increase their Commitments in the amount of the requested increase or other financial institutions agree to make a Commitment in the amount of the difference
between the amount of the increase requested by the Co-Borrowers and the amount by which the Banks having Commitments hereunder at the time the increase is requested are increasing their Commitments, (iv) such Banks and other financial
institutions, if any, shall have executed and delivered to the Agent a Commitment Increase Agreement or a New Bank Agreement, as applicable, and (v) the Co-Borrowers shall have delivered such evidence of authority for the increase (including
without limitation, certified resolutions of the applicable managers and/or members of the Co-Borrowers authorizing such increase) as the Agent may reasonably request. 

(c) Each financing institution to be added to this Agreement as described in Section 2.02(b)(iii) above shall execute and deliver
to the Agent a New Bank Agreement, pursuant to which it becomes a party to this Agreement. Each Bank agreeing to increase its Commitment as described in Section 2.02(b)(iii) shall execute and deliver to the Agent a Commitment Increase
Agreement pursuant to which it increases its Commitment hereunder. In addition, a Responsible Officer shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for each Bank being added to this Agreement, a Note payable to such new Bank in the principal amount of the
Commitment of such Bank, and for each Bank increasing its Commitment, a replacement Note payable to such Bank, in the principal amount of the increased Commitment of such Bank. Each such Note shall be dated the effective date of the pertinent New
Bank Agreement or Commitment Increase Agreement. In the event a replacement Note is issued to a Bank, such Bank shall mark the original note as “REPLACED” and shall return such original Note to the Co-Borrowers. Upon execution and delivery
to the Agent of the Note and the execution by the Agent of the relevant New Bank Agreement or Commitment Increase Agreement, as the case may be, such new financing institution shall constitute a “Bank” hereunder with a Commitment as
specified therein, or such existing Bank’s Commitment shall increase as specified therein, as the case may be, and the Agent shall notify Parent and all Banks of such addition or increase, and the final allocations thereof, and provide a
revised Schedule 2.01 reflecting such additions or increase together with a schedule showing the revised Advance Sub-limit Caps and the revised L/C Sub-limit Caps. 

  
 -40- 

 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.02, the Banks having
Commitments hereunder at the time any such increase is requested shall have the first right, but shall not be obligated, to participate in such increase by agreeing to increase their respective Commitments by their Pro Rata Share to the extent of
such increase. The Agent shall not, and shall not be obligated to, permit any financial institutions that do not have, at that time, Commitments hereunder to make commitments for portions of the requested increase not assumed by the Banks having
Commitments hereunder until each of such Banks have agreed to increase their Commitments or declined to do so. To facilitate the Banks’ right of first refusal, SEH shall, by written notice to the Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to
each Bank) given not less than 30 days prior to the requested effective date of the increase in Commitments (the “Increase Effective Date”), request that the Banks increase their Commitments. Each Bank shall, by notice to SEH and
the Agent given not later than 15 days following receipt of SEH’s request, advise SEH whether or not it will increase its Commitments as of the Increase Effective Date. Any Bank that has not so advised SEH and the Agent by such day shall be
deemed to have declined to agree to such increase in its Commitment. The decision to increase its Commitment hereunder shall be at the sole discretion of each Bank. 

2.03 Loan Accounts. The Loans and Letters of Credits Issued may be evidenced by Notes and loan accounts. Each Bank may endorse on the
schedules annexed to its Note the date, amount and maturity of each Loan made by it and the amount of each payment of principal made by the Co-Borrowers with respect thereto. Each Bank is irrevocably authorized by the Co-Borrowers to endorse its
Note and records and such Bank’s records shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank to make, or an error in making, a notation thereon with respect to any Loan shall not limit or
otherwise affect the Obligations of the Co-Borrowers hereunder or under such Note to such Bank. 
 2.04 Procedure for Borrowing. 

(a) Each Borrowing of Loans consisting only of Base Rate Loans or COF Rate Loans shall be made upon the Co-Borrowers’ irrevocable written
notice delivered to the Agent in the form of a Notice of Borrowing, which notice must be received by Agent prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Borrowing Date specifying the amount of the Borrowing. Each Borrowing of Loans that includes

the account of the Co-Borrowers at Agent’s Payment Office by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Borrowing Date requested by the Co-Borrowers in funds immediately available to Agent. The proceeds of all such Loans will then be made available

the expiration date of such Interest Period.

 (d) Agent will promptly notify each Bank of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation,
or, if no timely notice is provided by the Co-Borrowers, Agent will promptly notify each Bank of the details of any automatic conversion. All conversions and continuations shall be made ratably according to the respective outstanding principal
amounts of the Loans, with respect to which the notice was given, held by each Bank. Agent will promptly notify, in writing, each Bank of the amount of such Bank’s applicable percentage of that Conversion/Continuation.

without notice or demand, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Working Capital Loans and L/C Borrowings by an amount equal to the applicable excess, such payments to be applied pro rata. Any cash deposited as cash collateral or portion
thereof, shall be returned to Co-Borrowers as soon as reasonably practicable after notice to Agent of the expiration, termination or satisfaction of the Letters of Credit in sufficient amounts such that the Effective Amount of all Working Capital
Loans then outstanding plus the Effective Amount of all L/C Obligations does not exceed the aggregate of Commitments. 
 2.08 Termination
or Reduction of Commitments. The Co-Borrowers may, upon notice to the Agent by Parent, terminate the aggregate Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the aggregate Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be
received by the Agent not later than noon five (5) Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000.00 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000.00 in
excess thereof, and (iii) the Co-Borrowers may not terminate or reduce the aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto, a mandatory prepayment would be required under Section 2.07(a). The Agent will promptly notify the
Banks of any such termination or reduction of the aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each Bank according to its Pro Rata Share. All fees accrued until the effective date of any
termination of the aggregate Commitments and all other amounts payable shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. 
 2.09
Repayment. The Co-Borrowers shall repay the principal amount of each Working Capital Loan on the Advance Maturity Date for such Loan. 

2.10 Interest. 
 (a) Each
Loan (except for a Working Capital Loan made as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit or a Reducing L/C Borrowing) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable Borrowing Date at a floating rate per
annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin at all times such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at a floating rate per annum equal to the COF Rate plus the Applicable Margin at all times such Loan is a COF Rate Loan or at the Eurodollar Rate
plus the Applicable Margin at all times such Loan is an Eurodollar Rate Loan. Each Working Capital Loan made as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit or a Reducing L/C Borrowing shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount
thereof from the date funded at a floating rate per annum equal to the COF Rate plus the Applicable Margin until such Loan has been outstanding for more than two (2) Business Days and, thereafter, shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof at a floating rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, plus two percent (2.0%) per annum (the “Default Rate”). 

(b) Interest on each Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. 

(c) Notwithstanding subsection (a) of this Section, if any amount of principal of or interest on any Loan, or any other amount payable
hereunder or under any other Loan 

  
 -44- 

 
Document is not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, demand or otherwise), the Co-Borrowers agree to pay interest on such unpaid principal or other amount, from the
date such amount becomes due until the date such amount is paid in full, and after as well as before any entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law, payable on demand, at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. 

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Obligations of the Co-Borrowers to the Banks hereunder shall be subject to the
limitation that payment of interest shall not be required for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by the Banks would be contrary to the provisions
of any law applicable to the Banks limiting the highest rate of interest that may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by the Banks, and in such event the Co-Borrowers shall pay the Banks interest at the highest rate permitted by
applicable law. 
 (e) Regardless of any provision contained in the Notes or in any of the Loan Documents, the Banks shall never be deemed
to have contracted for or be entitled to receive, collect or apply as interest under the Notes or any Loan Document, or otherwise, any amount in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law, and, in the event
that the Banks ever receive, collect or apply as interest any such excess, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of the Notes, and, if the principal balance of the Notes is
paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the Co-Borrowers. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the highest lawful rate, the Co-Borrowers and the Banks shall, to the
maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee, or premium, rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effect thereof, and (iii) spread the total
amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of such Notes so that the interest rate is uniform throughout such term; provided, however, that if all Obligations under the Notes and all Loan Documents are performed in full
prior to the end of the full contemplated term thereof, and if the interest received for the actual term thereof exceeds the maximum lawful rate, the Banks shall refund to the Co-Borrowers the amount of such excess, or credit the amount of such
excess against the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Banks’ Notes at the time in question. 
 2.11 Non-Utilization Fees.
The Co-Borrowers shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Bank in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a non-utilization fee equal to 0.50% per annum times the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Commitments exceed the
Outstanding Amount; provided that for any day that a Bank is a Defaulting Bank hereunder, its Commitments shall be deemed to be, solely for purposes of this Section 2.11, zero. The non-utilization fees shall accrue at all times
during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article V are not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears within fifteen (15) days of the last Business Day of each
March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Expiration Date. The non-utilization fees shall be calculated quarterly in arrears. 

  
 -45- 

 2.12 Computation of Fees and Interest. 

(a) All computations in respect of interest at the Prime Rate shall be made on the basis of a 365/366-day year. All other computations of fees
and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year). Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which
interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof through the last day thereof. 
 (b) Each determination of an interest rate by
the Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Co-Borrowers. 
 2.13 Payments by the Co-Borrowers. 

(a) All payments to be made by the Co-Borrowers shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, all payments by the Co-Borrowers shall be made to the Agent for the account of the Banks at Agent’s Payment Office, and shall be made in dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time)
on the date specified herein. Agent will promptly distribute to each Bank its Pro Rata Share (or after the occurrence of a Sharing Event, an amount determined pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) of such payment in like funds as received. Any
payment received by Agent later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If and to the extent the Co-Borrowers make a payment
in full to Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day and Agent does not distribute to each Bank its Pro Rata Share of such payment in like funds as received on the same Business Day, Agent shall pay to each Bank on
demand interest on such amount as should have been distributed to such Bank at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such payment was received until the date such amount is distributed. 

(i) For any payment received by the Agent from or on behalf of the Co-Borrowers in respect of Obligations that are then due and
payable (and prepayments pursuant to Section 2.06), the Agent will promptly distribute such amounts in like funds to each Bank, its Pro Rata Share of the Working Capital Loans except that any amount otherwise payable to a Defaulting Bank
shall be distributed in the manner described in Section 2.16(g). 
 (ii) For any payment received from or on
behalf of the Co-Borrowers by the Agent on or after the occurrence of a Sharing Event, the Agent will promptly distribute such payment in accordance with Section 2.01 of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

(b) Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein, whenever any payment is due on a day
other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be. 

(c) Unless Agent receives notice from the Co-Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks that the Co-Borrowers will
not make such payment in 

  
 -46- 

 
full as and when required, Agent may assume that the Co-Borrowers have made such payment in full to Agent on such date in immediately available funds and Agent may (but shall not be so required),
in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent the Co-Borrowers have not made such payment in full to Agent, each Bank shall repay to Agent on demand
such amount distributed to such Bank, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date repaid. 

2.14 Payments by the Banks to Agent. If and to the extent any Bank shall not have made its full amount available to Agent in
immediately available funds and Agent in such circumstances has made available to the Co-Borrowers such amount, that Bank shall on the Business Day following such Borrowing Date make such amount available to Agent, together with interest at the
Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period. A notice of Agent submitted to any Bank with respect to amounts owing under this Section 2.14 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, such
payment to Agent shall constitute such Bank’s Loan on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to Agent on the Business Day following the Borrowing Date, Agent will notify the Co-Borrowers
of such failure to fund and, upon demand by Agent, the Co-Borrowers shall pay such amount to Agent for Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the
interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. 
 2.15 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If, other than as
expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Bank shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its Pro Rata Share (or after the
occurrence of a Sharing Event, an amount determined pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement), such Bank shall immediately (a) notify Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Banks such participations in the Loans made by them as
shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; except that with respect to any Bank that is a Defaulting Bank by virtue of such Bank failing to fund its Pro Rata Share or Pro Rata Adjusted
Percentage of any Working Capital Loan or L/C Borrowing, such Defaulting Bank’s pro rata share of the excess payment shall be allocated to the Bank (or the Banks, pro rata) that funded such Defaulting Bank’s Pro Rata Share or Pro Rata
Adjusted Percentage; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Bank, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Bank shall repay to the
purchasing Bank the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Bank’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Bank’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount
so recovered from the purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Co-Borrowers agree that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank may, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Co-Borrowers in
the amount of such participation. Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section and will in each case notify the Banks following any such purchases or
repayments. 

  
 -47- 

 2.16 Defaulting Bank. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the
contrary, if at any time a Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, the following provisions shall apply so long as any Bank is a Defaulting Bank: 

(a) Until such time as the Defaulting Bank ceases to be a Bank under this Agreement, it will retain its Commitment and will remain subject to
all of its obligations as a Bank hereunder, although it will be presumed that such Defaulting Bank will fail to satisfy any funding obligation and, accordingly, all other Banks hereby agree to fund L/C Borrowings in accordance with the terms hereof
and their respective Pro Rata Adjusted Percentage. 
 (b) The Fees under Section 2.11 shall cease to accrue on that portion of
such Defaulting Bank’s Commitment that remains unfunded or which has not been included in any L/C Obligations; 
 (c) A Defaulting Bank
may cease to be a Defaulting Bank as specified in the definition thereof. 
 (d) At any time during a Default Period, Agent may and upon the
direction of the Majority Banks shall, upon three (3) Business Days prior notice to the applicable Defaulting Bank (so long as such Default Period remains in effect at the end of such notice period), require such Defaulting Bank to assign all
right, title and interest that it may have in all Loans and any other Obligations of the Co-Borrowers under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to another Bank (if another Bank will consent to purchase such right, title and interest) or an
Eligible Assignee in accordance with Section 10.07 of this Agreement, if such Eligible Assignee can be found by the Co-Borrowers, for a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Loans and any other Obligations
plus the amount of any interest and fees accrued and owing to such Defaulting Bank as of the date of such assignment. 
 (e)
with respect to any L/C Obligation that exists at the time a Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank or thereafter: 
 (i) all or any
part of such Defaulting Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Adjusted Percentage but only to the extent (x) the sum of all of the
Effective Amounts of the Non-Defaulting Banks plus such Defaulting Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations does not exceed the Total Available Commitment, (y) any Non-Defaulting Bank’s Effective Amount plus such Non-Defaulting
Bank’s Pro Rata Adjusted Percentage of such Defaulting Bank’s Pro Rata Percentage of the L/C Obligations does not exceed such Non-Defaulting Bank’s Commitment and (z) the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 of this
Agreement are satisfied at such time; 
 (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can
only partially be effected, then the Co-Borrowers shall within two (2) Business Days following notice by the Agent Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial
reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including without limitation Section 3.07, for so long as such L/C Obligation is outstanding; 

  
 -48- 

 (iii) if the Co-Borrowers Cash Collateralize any portion of such Defaulting
Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.16(e) and Section 3.07 then the Co-Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees for the pro rata benefit of such Defaulting Bank pursuant to
Section 3.08 with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations during the period such Defaulting Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations is Cash Collateralized; and 

(iv) if any Defaulting Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated
pursuant to Section 2.16(e)(i), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Bank hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under this Agreement with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s
Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Banks until such Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations is Cash Collateralized, reallocated, or repaid in full. 

(f) So long as any Bank is a Defaulting Bank, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless
it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitment of the Non-Defaulting Banks and/or cash collateral will be provided by Defaulting Bank or the Co-Borrowers in accordance with Section 3.07, and
participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among the Non-Defaulting Banks in a manner consistent with Section 3.03 (and the Defaulting Banks shall not participate therein). 

(g) Any amount payable to such Defaulting Bank hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) shall, in lieu of
being distributed to such Defaulting Bank, be retained by the Agent in a segregated account and subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Bank to the Agent
hereunder, (ii) second, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Bank to the Issuing Banks hereunder, (iii) third, to the funding of cash collateralization of any participating interest in any Letter of Credit
in respect of which such Defaulting Bank has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent or the Issuing Bank with the amount so funded reducing the amount the Co-Borrowers were required to Cash
Collateralize pursuant to Section 2.16(e)(ii), (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Co-Borrowers, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of any Defaulting Bank
under this Agreement, (v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Co-Borrowers or the Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Co-Borrowers or any Bank against such
Defaulting Bank as a result of such Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Bank or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that if such
payment is a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations in respect of L/C Advances which a Defaulting Bank has funded in accordance with its participation obligations, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay
the Loans of, and reimbursement obligations owed to, all non-Defaulting Banks pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or reimbursement obligations owed to, any Defaulting Bank. 

  
 -49- 

 (h) In the event that the Agent, the Co-Borrowers and the Issuing Bank each agree that a
Defaulting Bank has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Bank to be a Defaulting Bank, then the Pro Rata Share of the L/C Obligations of the Banks shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Bank’s Commitment and on such
date such Bank shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Banks as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Bank to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share as though it were not a Defaulting Bank. 

(i) No Swap Contract entered into by a Swap Bank shall benefit from the security package provided by the Security Documents, if at the time
such Swap Contract was entered, such Swap Bank (or its Affiliate) was a Defaulting Bank. 
 (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, the Commitment of such Defaulting Bank shall not be included for purposes of determining the “Majority Banks.” 

ARTICLE 3
 THE LETTERS OF
CREDIT 
 3.01 The Letter of Credit Lines. 

(a) Each Issuing Bank agrees, (A) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Expiration Date, to
Issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Co-Borrowers under the Working Capital Line and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously Issued by it, in accordance with Subsections 3.02(c) and 3.02(d), and (B) to honor
drafts under the Letters of Credit. Each of the Banks will be deemed to have approved such Issuance, amendment or renewal, and shall participate in Letters of Credit Issued for the account of the Co-Borrowers. Subject to the other terms and
conditions hereof, the Co-Borrowers’ ability to request that an Issuing Bank Issue Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and, accordingly, the Co-Borrowers may, during the foregoing period, request that Issuing Bank Issue Letters of
Credit to replace Letters of Credit which have expired or which have been drawn upon and reimbursed. The parties hereto agree that effective as of the Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued and maintained
under, and to be governed by the terms and conditions of, this Agreement and shall constitute a portion of the L/C Obligations. 
 (b) No
Issuing Bank shall Issue any Letter of Credit unless Agent shall have received notice of the request for Issuance of such Letter of Credit and Agent shall have consented to the Issuance of such Letter of Credit, such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Additionally, no Issuing Bank shall Issue any Letter of Credit if: 
 (i) any order,
judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from Issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of
Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of 

  
 -50- 

 
Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing
Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; 

(ii) such Issuing Bank has received written notice from the Agent or the Co-Borrowers, on or prior to the Business Day prior to
the requested date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit, that one or more of the applicable conditions contained in Article V is not then satisfied; 

(iii) the expiry date of any requested Letter of Credit is after the earlier to occur of (A) the expiry date of the
applicable L/C Sub-limit Cap for such Letter of Credit or (B) 365 days after the Expiration Date, unless all the Banks have approved such expiry date in writing; 

(iv) the expiry date of any such requested Letter of Credit is prior to the maturity date of any financial obligation to be
supported by the requested Letter of Credit; 
 (v) such requested Letter of Credit is not in form and substance acceptable
to such Issuing Bank, or the Issuance of such requested Letter of Credit shall violate any applicable policies of Issuing Bank; 

(vi) such Letter of Credit is for the purpose of supporting the Issuance of any letter of credit by any other Person other than
another Co-Borrower; 
 (vii) such Letter of Credit is denominated in a currency other than Dollars; 

(viii) the amount of such requested Letter of Credit, plus the Effective Amount of L/C Obligations relating to Letters of
Credit Issued under a particular L/C Sub-limit Cap, plus the Effective Amount of all Working Capital Loans made for the purpose described under such L/C Sub-limit Cap exceeds the applicable L/C Sub-limit Cap; 

(ix) the amount of such requested Letter of Credit, plus the Effective Amount of all of the L/C Obligations, plus the Effective
Amount of all Working Capital Loans exceeds the lesser of (A) the Borrowing Base Advance Cap determined as of the date of such request on the basis of the Collateral Position Report most recently received by the Agent pursuant to
Section 7.02(b) two (2) Business Days prior to the date on which the requested Letter of Credit is to be Issued, or (B) the aggregate Commitments; 

(x) the amount of such Letter of Credit would result in exposure of an Issuing Bank to exceed its Issuing Bank Sub-Limit. 

(c) Any Letter of Credit requested by the Co-Borrowers to be Issued hereunder may be Issued by any Issuing Bank or any Affiliate of such
Issuing Bank acceptable to the Co-Borrowers, and if a Letter of Credit is Issued by an Affiliate of such Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit shall be treated, for all purposes of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, as if it were issued by such
Issuing Bank. 

  
 -51- 

 3.02 Issuance, Amendment and Renewal of Letters of Credit. 

(a) Each Letter of Credit Issued hereunder shall be Issued upon the irrevocable written request of SEH pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing in the
applicable form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 received by an Issuing Bank and the Agent by no later than 12:00 p.m. noon (New York City time) on the proposed date of Issuance. Each such request
for Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be by electronic transfer or facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing or by electronic transfer, in the form of an L/C Application, and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such
Issuing Bank: (i) the proposed date of Issuance of the Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (ii) the face amount of the Letter of Credit; (iii) the expiry date of the Letter of Credit; (iv) the name and address of
the beneficiary thereof; (v) the documents to be presented by the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit in case of any drawing thereunder; (vi) the full text of any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary in case of any drawing
thereunder; and (vii) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may require. 
 (b) From time to time while a Letter of Credit is
outstanding and prior to the Expiration Date, an Issuing Bank will, upon the written request of SEH received by such Issuing Bank (with a copy sent by SEH to Agent) prior to 12:00 p.m. noon (New York City time) on the proposed date of amendment,
consider the amendment of any Letter of Credit issued by it. Each such request for amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be made by electronic transfer or facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing or by electronic transfer, made in the
form of an L/C Amendment Application and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such Issuing Bank and Agent: (i) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (ii) the proposed date of amendment of the Letter of Credit (which shall be a
Business Day); (iii) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (iv) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may require. Such Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit. 

(c) If any outstanding Letter of Credit Issued by an Issuing Bank shall provide that it shall be automatically renewed unless the beneficiary
thereof receives notice from such Issuing Bank that such Letter of Credit shall not be renewed, and if at the time of renewal such Issuing Bank would be entitled to authorize the automatic renewal of such Letter of Credit in accordance with this
Subsection 3.02(c) upon the request of SEH, then such Issuing Bank shall be permitted to allow such Letter of Credit to renew, and the Co-Borrowers and the Banks hereby authorize such renewal, and, accordingly, such Issuing Bank shall be
deemed to have received an L/C Amendment Application from the Co-Borrowers requesting such renewal. 
 (d) Any Issuing Bank may, at its
election, deliver any notices of termination or other communications to any Letter of Credit beneficiary or transferee, and take any other action as necessary or appropriate, at any time and from time to time, in order to cause the expiry date of
such Letter of Credit to be a date not later than the Expiration Date. 
 (e) This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with
any L/C-Related Document (other than any Letter of Credit). 

  
 -52- 

 (f) Each Issuing Bank will deliver to Agent a true and complete copy of each Letter of Credit or
amendment to or renewal of a Letter of Credit Issued by it. 
 3.03 Risk Participations, Drawings, Reducing Letters of Credit and
Reimbursements. 
 (a) Immediately upon the Issuance of each Letter of Credit Issued by Issuing Bank, each Bank shall be deemed to, and
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuing Bank a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing or Reducing L/C Borrowing thereunder in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Pro Rata Share of such
Letter of Credit (or, if a Defaulting Bank exists, and without limitation to the obligations of such Defaulting Bank under this Section 3.03, with respect to any Non-Defaulting Bank, its Pro Rata Adjusted Percentage, if applicable),
times (ii) the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing or Reducing Letter of Credit Borrowing, respectively. For purposes of Section 2.01, each Issuance of a Letter of Credit
shall be deemed to utilize the Commitment of each Bank by an amount equal to the amount of such participation. 
 (b) In the event of any
request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit Issued by an Issuing Bank by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, such Issuing Bank will promptly notify SEH. Any notice given by an Issuing Bank or Agent pursuant to this
Subsection 3.03(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing (including by facsimile); provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. The
Co-Borrowers shall reimburse an Issuing Bank prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time), on each date that any amount is paid by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit or to the beneficiary of a Reducing Letter of Credit in the form of a Reducing
L/C Borrowing (each such date, an “Honor Date”), in an amount equal to the amount so paid by such Issuing Bank. In the event the Co-Borrowers fail to reimburse such Issuing Bank for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of
Credit or of any Reducing L/C Borrowing, as the case may be, by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Honor Date, such Issuing Bank will promptly notify Agent and Agent will promptly notify each Bank thereof, and SEH shall be deemed to have
requested that Working Capital Loans be made by the Banks to be disbursed to such Issuing Bank not later than one (1) Business Day after the Honor Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Working
Capital Line. 
 (c) In the event of any request for a Reducing L/C Borrowing by SEH in association with any Reducing Letter of Credit, the
amount available for drawing under such Reducing Letter of Credit will be reduced automatically, and without any further amendment or endorsement to such Reducing Letter of Credit, by the amount actually paid to such beneficiary, notwithstanding the
fact that the payment creating such Reducing L/C Borrowing is not made pursuant to a conforming and proper draw under the corresponding Reducing Letter of Credit. 

(d) Each Bank shall upon any notice pursuant to Subsection 3.03(b) make available to Agent for the account of any Issuing Bank an
amount in Dollars and in immediately available funds equal to its Pro Rata Share (or, if a Defaulting Bank exists, and without limitation to the obligations of such Defaulting Bank under this Section 3.03, with respect to any
Non-Defaulting Bank, its Pro Rata Adjusted Percentage, if applicable) of the amount of the drawing or of the Reducing L/C Borrowing, as the case may be, whereupon the participating Banks shall 

  
 -53- 

 
(subject to Subsection 3.03(e)) each be deemed to have made a Working Capital Loan to the Co-Borrowers in that amount. If any Bank so notified fails to make available to Agent for the
account of Issuing Bank the amount of such Bank’s Pro Rata Share (or, if a Defaulting Bank exists, and without limitation to the obligations of such Defaulting Bank under this Section 3.03, with respect to any Non-Defaulting Bank,
its Pro Rata Adjusted Percentage, if applicable) of the amount of the drawing or of the Reducing L/C Borrowing, as the case may be, by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following the Honor Date, then interest shall
accrue on such Bank’s obligation to make such payment, from the Honor Date to the date such Bank makes such payment, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time during such period. Agent will promptly give
notice of the occurrence of the Honor Date, but failure of Agent to give any such notice on the Honor Date or in sufficient time to enable any Bank to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Bank from its obligations under this
Section 3.03. 
 (e) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing or Reducing L/C Borrowing, as the case may be, that is not
converted into Working Capital Loans in whole or in part for any reason, the Co-Borrowers shall be deemed to have incurred from the relevant Issuing Bank an L/C Borrowing in the amount of such drawing or Reducing L/C Borrowing, as the case may be,
which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate, and each Bank’s payment to Issuing Bank pursuant to Subsection 3.03(d) shall be
deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Bank in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 3.03. 

(f) Each Bank’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make the Working Capital Loans or L/C Advances, as contemplated by this
Section 3.03, as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit or Reducing L/C Borrowing, shall be absolute and unconditional and without recourse to the relevant Issuing Bank and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including
(i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank may have against such Issuing Bank, the Co-Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, an Event
of Default or a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 

3.04 Repayment of Participations. 

(a) Upon (and only upon) receipt by Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank of immediately available funds from the Co-Borrowers (i) in
reimbursement of any payment made by such Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit or in connection with a Reducing L/C Borrowing with respect to which any Bank has paid Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank for such Bank’s participation in
the Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 3.03 or (ii) in payment of interest thereon, Agent will pay to each Bank, in the same funds as those received by Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, the amount of such Bank’s Pro
Rata Share (or, if a Defaulting Bank exists, and without limitation to the obligations of such Defaulting Bank under this Section 3.03, with respect to any Non-Defaulting Bank, its Pro Rata Adjusted Percentage, if applicable) of such
funds, and such Issuing Bank shall receive the amount of the Pro Rata Share of such funds of any Bank that did not so pay Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank. 

  
 -54- 

 (b) If Agent or an Issuing Bank is required at any time to return to the Co-Borrowers, or to a
trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by the Co-Borrowers to Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank pursuant to Subsection 3.04(a) in reimbursement of
a payment made under a Letter of Credit or in connection with a Reducing L/C Borrowing or interest or fee thereon, each Bank shall, on demand of such Issuing Bank, forthwith return to Agent or such Issuing Bank the amount of its Pro Rata Share (or,
if a Defaulting Bank exists, and without limitation to the obligations of such Defaulting Bank under this Section 3.03, with respect to any Non-Defaulting Bank, its Pro Rata Adjusted Percentage, if applicable) of any amounts so returned
by Agent or such Issuing Bank plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Bank to Agent or such Issuing Bank, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time.

 3.05 Role of the Issuing Banks. 

(a) Each Bank and the Co-Borrowers agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit or funding any Reducing L/C Borrowing, no Issuing
Bank shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft or certificates expressly required by such Letter of Credit, but with respect to Reducing Letter of Credit Borrowings, no document of any kind need be obtained) or
to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. 

(b) No Agent Related Person, Issuing Bank or Bank shall be liable for: (i) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence
or willful misconduct; or (ii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any L/C-Related Document. 

(c) The Co-Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter
of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Co-Borrowers from pursuing such rights and remedies as they may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other
agreement. No Affiliate of any Issuing Bank or Bank, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Bank or Bank shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (a) through
(g) of Section 3.06; provided, however, anything in such clauses or elsewhere herein to the contrary notwithstanding, that the Co-Borrowers may have a claim against an Issuing Bank or a Bank, and such Issuing Bank or
Bank may be liable to the Co-Borrowers, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Co-Borrowers which the Co-Borrowers prove were caused by such Issuing Bank or Bank’s
willful misconduct or gross negligence or such Issuing Bank or such Bank’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms
and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing: (i) an Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit,
without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary; and (ii) an Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or
purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 

  
 -55- 

 3.06 Obligations Absolute. The Obligations of the Co-Borrowers under this Agreement and
any L/C-Related Document to reimburse an Issuing Bank for a drawing under a Letter of Credit or for a Reducing L/C Borrowing, and to repay any L/C Borrowing and any drawing under a Letter of Credit or Reducing
L/C Borrowing converted into Working Capital Loans, shall be joint and several, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each such other
L/C-Related Document under all circumstances, including the following:

manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations of the Co-Borrowers in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C-Related Documents; 
 (c) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the
Co-Borrowers may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with
this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by the L/C-Related Documents or any unrelated transaction; 

(d) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit; 

(e) any payment by Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with
the terms of any Letter of Credit; or any payment made by any Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other
representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding; 

(f) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other
guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations of the Co-Borrowers in respect of any Letter of Credit; or 
 (g) any other circumstance or
happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Co-Borrowers. 

  
 -56- 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.06, no Issuing Banks shall
be excused from liability to the Co-Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential, indirect and punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Co-Borrowers) suffered by the Co-Borrowers that are
caused by such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, provided, however, that the parties hereto
expressly agree that: 
 (i) the Issuing Banks may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance
with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial
compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; 
 (ii) the Issuing Banks shall have the right, in their sole discretion,
to decline to accept documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; 

(iii) this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by the Issuing Banks when determining whether drafts
and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing). 

3.07 Cash Collateral Pledge. Upon the request of the Agent, (a) if an Issuing Bank has honored any full or partial drawing request
on any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing hereunder, (b) if, as of the Expiration Date, any Letters of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn or (c) upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default (and automatically without any requirement for notice or a request upon the occurrence of the events described in Sections 8.01(e) or (f)), the Co-Borrowers shall immediately Cash Collateralize the L/C
Obligations in an amount equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of such L/C Obligations. Upon the occurrence of the circumstances described in Section 2.06(c) requiring the Co-Borrowers to Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit, the
Co-Borrowers shall immediately Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an amount equal to the applicable excess.

Letter of Credit is outstanding during that month as calculated by the Agent and payable monthly in arrears. 
 (e) The Co-Borrowers shall

ARTICLE 4
 TAXES, YIELD
PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
 4.01 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by the Co-Borrowers to the Banks under this Agreement and any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and
without deduction or withholding for any Taxes. In addition, the Co-Borrowers shall pay all Other Taxes. 

  
 -58- 

 (b) If the Co-Borrowers shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes, Other Taxes or
Further Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Bank, then: 
 (i) the sum payable shall be increased as
necessary so that, after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), each Bank receives and retains an amount equal to the sum it would have
received and retained had no such deductions or withholdings been made; 
 (ii) The Co-Borrowers shall make such deductions
and withholdings; 
 (iii) The Co-Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority
or other authority in accordance with applicable law; and 
 (iv) The Co-Borrowers shall also pay to each Bank for the
account of such Bank, at the time interest is paid, Further Taxes in the amount that such Bank specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Bank would have received if such Further Taxes had not been imposed. 

(c) The Co-Borrowers agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Bank for the full amount of (i) Taxes, (ii) Other Taxes and
(iii) Further Taxes in the amount that such Bank specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Bank would have received if such Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes had not been imposed, and any liability (including penalties,
interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within thirty (30)
days after the date the Bank makes written demand therefor. 
 (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Co-Borrowers of
Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes, the Co-Borrowers shall furnish the Banks the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Banks. 

4.02 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return. 

(a) If a Bank determines that, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change after the date hereof in or in the interpretation of
any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance by the Bank with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) issued after the date hereof, there shall be any increase in
the cost to the Bank in the cost of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loans or to Issue, Issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or unpaid drawing under any Letter of Credit, then the Co-Borrowers shall be liable for, and
shall from time to time, upon demand, pay to such Bank, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increased costs. 

(b) If a Bank shall have determined that (i) the introduction of any guideline, request, directive, law, rule or regulation effective
after the date hereof, (ii) any change in any guideline request, directive, law, rule or regulation after the date hereof, (iii) after the date hereof, any change in the interpretation or administration of any guideline, request or
directive of any central bank or other Governmental Authority, or any other law, rule or regulation, whether or not having the force of law, in each case, regarding capital adequacy of the Bank or of any

  
 -59- 

 
corporation controlling the Bank, or (iv) the compliance by the Bank (or its lending office) or any corporation controlling the Bank with any such guideline request, directive, law, rule or
regulation effective after the date hereof, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank and (taking into consideration the Bank’s or such
corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and the Bank’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement (excluding
for the purposes of this Section 4.02 any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from taxes applicable to overall net income or gross income by the United States and state or foreign jurisdiction or any political
subdivision of them under the laws of which such Bank or Issuing Bank is organized or has its lending office), then, upon demand of such Bank to the Co-Borrowers, the Co-Borrowers shall pay to such Bank, from time to time as specified by such Bank,
additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increase. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International
Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law for
purposes of this Section 4.02, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. 
 4.03 Compensation for Losses. Upon
demand of any Bank (with a copy to the Agent) from time to time, the Co-Borrowers shall promptly compensate such Bank for and hold such Bank harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan or a COF Rate Loan on a day other than the
last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 
 (b) any
failure by any Co-Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Bank to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan or COF Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by such Co-Borrower; or

 (c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefore as a result of a request
by any Co-Borrower pursuant to Section 10.16; 
 including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation
or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. 

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Co-Borrowers to the Banks under this Section 4.03, each Bank shall be deemed to
have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank Eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such
Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 

  
 -60- 

 4.04 Illegality. 

(a) If any Bank determines that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation
or administration of any Requirement of Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Bank or its applicable Lending Office to make Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on
notice thereof by such Bank to the Co-Borrowers through the Agent, any obligation of that Bank to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans or COF Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Bank notifies the
Agent and the Co-Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. 
 (b) If a Bank determines that it is
unlawful to maintain any Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Co-Borrowers shall, upon receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Bank (with a copy to the Agent), prepay in full, without premium or penalty, such Eurodollar Rate Loans of that Bank then
outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if the Bank may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Bank may not lawfully continue to
maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan. If the Co-Borrowers are required to so prepay any Eurodollar Rate Loan, then concurrently with such prepayment, the Co-Borrowers may, but shall not be required to, borrow from the affected Bank, in the amount of
such repayment, a COF Rate Loan. 
 4.05 Inability to Determine Rates. If (a) the Agent (or any Bank) determines in connection
with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks (or such Bank) in the applicable offshore Dollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period
of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (ii) if the Agent (or any Bank) determines that the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Rate Loan
does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Banks (or such Bank) of funding such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (b) the Agent (or any Bank) determines in connection with any request for a COF Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation
thereof that that the COF Rate for such COF Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding such COF Rate Loan, then the Agent will promptly notify the Co-Borrowers and all Banks. Thereafter, the obligation of the
Banks to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans or COF Rate Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended until all of the Banks revoke such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Co-Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing, conversion,
or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or COF Rate Loans, as applicable, or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or COF Rate Loans, as applicable, in the amount specified
therein. 
 4.06 Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Co-Borrowers shall pay to each Bank, as long as such Bank shall be required
under regulations of the FRB to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency Liabilities”), additional costs on the unpaid principal
amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by the Bank (as determined by the Bank in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), 

  
 -61- 

 
payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided, however, that the Co-Borrowers shall have received at least 15 days’ prior written notice (with a copy
to the Agent) of such additional interest from the Bank. If a Bank fails to give notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be payable 15 days from receipt of such notice. 

4.07 Certificates of Bank. If a Bank claims reimbursement or compensation under this Article IV, it shall deliver to the
Co-Borrowers a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to such Bank hereunder and the basis for same and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Co-Borrowers in the absence of manifest error. 

4.08 Survival. The agreements and Obligations of the Co-Borrowers in this Article IV shall survive the payment of all other
Obligations.

6.02 Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Agreement and each other Loan
Document to which such Loan Party is party, have been duly authorized by all necessary partnership or limited liability company action, as applicable, and do not and will not contravene, conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or

companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in localities where such Loan Party operates. 
 6.17 Full

Person’s absolute and contingent liabilities, including the Obligations, does not exceed the fair market value of such Person’s assets, including any rights of contribution, reimbursement or indemnity). Each Loan Party has capital which is
adequate for the businesses in which such Person is engaged and intends to be engaged. None of the Loan Parties has incurred (whether hereby or otherwise), nor do the Loan Parties intend to incur or believe that they will incur, liabilities which

(3rd) Business Day subsequent to the earlier of (i) the date that is 45 days following the end of each calendar month or (ii) the date on which monthly financial statements are
required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.01 (the “Cure Period”), the Co-Borrowers shall be permitted to cure such failure to comply by way of receiving Equity Cure Contributions, and upon the date on which the Cure

with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of any such covenant that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Co-Borrowers shall provide Agent with notice of intent to exercise their right to cure contained in this subsection within 45 days of the end of the calendar month for which the cure is sought. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained this Agreement, from the date of receipt of such notice until the date on which the Cure Period expires, neither Agent nor any Bank shall exercise rights or remedies with respect to any Default or Event of Default solely on the basis that
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 7.09(a), (b) or (c). The Equity Cure Contributions must be received no later than the end of the applicable Cure Period. In any rolling twelve month period, there shall be no
more than two (2) Equity Cure Contributions permitted, and no more than three (3) Equity Cure Contributions shall be permitted during the term of this Agreement.

take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those
expressly set forth herein, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Bank, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to 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 merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting
parties. 
 (b) Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Banks with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents
associated therewith until such time (and except for so long) as Agent may agree at the request of the Banks to act for Issuing Bank with respect thereto; provided, however, that Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and
immunities (i) provided to Agent in this Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the application and
agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in this Article IX included Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally
provided herein with respect to Issuing Bank. Prior to the Issuance of a Letter of Credit or upon the payment of any drawing on a Letter of Credit by Issuing Bank other than Agent, Issuing Bank shall provide written notice to Agent of the dollar
amount, the date of such Issuance of payment and the expiry date for such Letter of Credit. Such Issuance shall be subject to the consent of Agent. Such consent shall not result in the imposition of any liability upon Agent. 

9.02 Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents,
employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with
reasonable care. 
 9.03 Liability of Agent. None of Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted
to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of
the Banks for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Co-Borrowers or any Subsidiary 

  
 -87- 

 
or Affiliate of the Co-Borrowers, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or
provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for the value of or title to any Collateral, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Co-Borrowers or any other party to any Loan Document to perform their obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to the Banks to
ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Co-Borrowers or any of the
Co-Borrowers’ Subsidiaries or Affiliates. 
 9.04 Reliance by Agent. 

(a) Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate,
affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Banks as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Banks against any and all liability and expense which may be
incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of
the Banks and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Banks. 
 (b) For
purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 5.02, each Bank that has executed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other
matter either sent by Agent to such Bank for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Banks. 

9.05 Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default,
except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Banks, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Bank or the Co-Borrowers referring to this Agreement,
describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Agent will notify the Banks of its receipt of any such notice. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default
as may be requested by the Majority Banks in accordance with Article VIII; provided, however, that unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain
from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Banks. 

  
 -88- 

 9.06 Credit Decision. Each Bank acknowledges that none of Agent-Related Persons has made
any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related
Person to any Bank. Each Bank represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation
into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, the value of and title to any Collateral, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Loan Parties hereunder. Each Bank also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such
investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein
required to be furnished to the Banks by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or
creditworthiness of the Loan Parties which may come into the possession of any of Agent-Related Persons. 
 9.07 Indemnification.
Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Banks shall indemnify upon demand Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Loan Parties and without limiting the obligation of the Loan
Parties to do so as provided for elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, if so provided), pro rata in accordance with each Bank’s Pro Rata Share (or if a Defaulting Bank exists, and without limitation to the obligations of such
Defaulting Bank under this Agreement, with respect to each Non-Defaulting Bank, its Pro Rata Adjusted Percentage), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Bank shall be liable for the payment to
Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation
of the foregoing, each Bank shall reimburse Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or
referred to herein, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Loan Parties. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Agent.
THE FORGOING INDEMNITY INCLUDES AN INDEMNITY FOR THE NEGLIGENCE OF AGENT-RELATED PERSONS. 
 9.08 Agent in Individual Capacity.
Société Générale and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory,
underwriting or other business 

  
 -89- 

 
with the Co-Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though Société Générale were not Agent or Issuing Bank hereunder and without notice to or consent of the
Banks. The Banks acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Société Générale or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Co-Borrowers or their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to
confidentiality obligations in favor of the Co-Borrowers or such Affiliates) and acknowledge that Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, Société Générale shall
have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent or Issuing Bank, and the terms “Bank” and “Banks” include Société Générale
in its individual capacity. 
 9.09 Successor Agent. Agent may at any time and shall, if Agent becomes a Defaulting Bank, resign as
Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Banks. If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Banks shall appoint, from among the Banks, a successor agent for the Banks. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the
resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Banks, a successor agent from among the Banks. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and
duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent,
the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted
appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Banks shall perform all of the
duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Banks appoint a successor agent as provided for above. 
 9.10 Foreign
Banks. Each Bank that is a “foreign corporation, partnership or trust” within the meaning of the Code (a “Foreign Bank”) shall deliver to Agent: (i) prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding under the
Code (or after accepting an assignment of an interest herein), two duly signed completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Person and entitling it to an exemption
from, or reduction of, withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Person by the Co-Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made
to such Person by the Co-Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement) or such other evidence satisfactory to the Co-Borrowers and Agent that such Person is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. withholding tax and (ii) any documentation
reasonably requested by the Agent or a Co-Borrower that is necessary for such Co-Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine if such Foreign Bank has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine
the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Person shall (a) promptly submit to Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall
be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to the Co-Borrowers and Agent of any
available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Person by the Co-Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement, (b) promptly notify Agent of any change in circumstances which would
modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or 

  
 -90- 

 
reduction, and (c) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Bank, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation
of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that the Co-Borrowers make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Person. If such Person fails to deliver the above forms or other documentation (other
than as a result of a change in treaty, law or other regulation that occurs after the date such Person becomes a Bank that renders all such forms inapplicable or that would prevent such Bank from duly completing and delivering such form with respect
to it), then Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Person an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, without reduction. If any Governmental Authority asserts that Agent did
not properly withhold any tax or other amount from payments made in respect of such Person, such Person shall indemnify Agent therefore, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to Agent
under this Section, and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of Agent. The obligation of the Banks under this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of Agent. 

9.11 Collateral Matters. 

(a) The Agent is authorized on behalf of all the Banks and the Swap Banks, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the
Banks or the Swap Banks, from time to time to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to
the Loan Documents. 
 (b) The Banks and the Swap Banks irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any
Lien granted to or held by the Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon payment in full of all Loans and all other Obligations known to the Agent and payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any Swap Contract; (ii) constituting
property sold or to be sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder; (iii) constituting property in which the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or at
any time thereafter; (iv) constituting property leased to the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement or is about to expire and which has not been, and is
not intended by the Loan Parties or such Subsidiary to be, renewed or extended; (v) consisting of an instrument evidencing indebtedness or other debt instrument, if the indebtedness evidenced thereby has been paid in full; (vi) in POR
Collateral to the extent the release of the Agent’s Lien in such POR Collateral is required by the applicable POR Agreement or any Requirement of Law; or (vii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Banks. Upon request by
the Agent at any time, the Banks will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Subsection 9.11(b); provided, however, that the absence of any such
confirmation for whatever reason shall not affect the Agent’s rights under this Section 9.11. 
 9.12 Monitoring
Responsibility. Each Bank will make its own credit decisions hereunder, including the decision whether or not to make advances or consent to the Issuance of Letters of Credit, thus the Agent shall have no duty to monitor the Collateral Position,
the amounts outstanding under sub-lines or the reporting requirements or the contents of reports delivered by the Loan Parties. Each Bank assumes the responsibility of keeping itself informed at all times. 

  
 -91- 

 9.13 Swap Banks. To the extent any Affiliate of a Bank is a party to a Swap Contract with
a Co-Borrower and thereby becomes a beneficiary of the Liens pursuant to the Security Documents or any other Loan Document, such Affiliate of a Bank shall be deemed to appoint the Agent its nominee and agent to act for and on behalf of such
Affiliate (and the Agent hereby accepts such nomination and agrees to act as agent for such Affiliate) in connection with the Security Documents and such other Loan Documents and to be bound by the terms of this Article IX. 

9.14 Other Agents; Arrangers. None of the Banks or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as
a “syndication agent,” as a “documentation agent,” any other type of agent (other than the Agent), “arranger,” or “bookrunner” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under
this Agreement other than those applicable to all Banks as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Banks so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Bank. Each Bank acknowledges that it has not relied,
and will not rely, on any of the Banks so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 

ARTICLE 10

writing and signed by the Issuing Bank in addition to the Banks required above and each of the Co-Borrowers, affect the rights or duties of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any L/C-Related Document
relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; and (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Agent in addition to the Banks required above and each of the Co-Borrowers, affect the rights or

 10.02 Notices. 

(a) All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including prepaid overnight courier, facsimile
transmission, e-mail, electronic 

  
 -93- 

 
submissions or similar writing) and shall be given to such party at its address, facsimile number or e-mail address set forth on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of a Bank, in its
administrative questionnaire provided by each such Bank to Agent, and Agent shall promptly provide such address to Co-Borrowers) or at such other address, facsimile number or e-mail address as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by
notice to Agent and Co-Borrowers; provided, that notices, requests or other communications shall be permitted by e-mail or other electronic submissions only in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2(b). Each such notice,
request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by facsimile, when such notice is transmitted to the facsimile number specified by this Section and the sender receives a confirmation of transmission from the sending facsimile
machine, (ii) if given by e-mail or other electronic submissions, as set forth in Section 10.2(c) or (iii) if given by mail, prepaid overnight courier or any other means, when received at the applicable address specified by
this Section; provided, that notices pursuant to Articles II or III shall not be effective until actually received by the Banks. 

(b) Notices and other communications to the parties hereto may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and
Internet or intranet websites); provided, that (i) the foregoing shall not apply to notices sent directly to any party hereto if such party has notified Agent that it has elected not to receive notices by electronic communication and
(ii) no Notices of Borrowing or any notices regarding request for advances hereunder shall be permitted to be delivered or furnished by Co-Borrowers by electronic communication unless made in accordance with specific procedures approved from
time to time by Agent. 
 (c) Unless Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall
be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgment), and (ii) notices or
communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication
is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided, that if any such notice or other communication is not sent or posted during normal business hours, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the
opening of business on the next Business Day. 
 (d) Any agreement of the Banks herein to receive certain notices by telephone or facsimile
is solely for the convenience and at the request of the Co-Borrowers. The Banks shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a Person authorized by the Co-Borrowers to give such notice and the Banks shall not have any
liability to the Co-Borrowers or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Banks in reliance upon such telephonic or facsimile notice. The obligation of the Co-Borrowers to repay the Loans and L/C Obligations shall not be
affected in any way or to any extent by any failure by the Banks to receive written confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or the receipt by the Banks of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms understood by the Banks to be
contained in the telephonic or facsimile notice. 
 (e) Parent and Co-Borrowers hereby acknowledge that (a) Agent will make available to the
Banks and the Issuing Banks materials and/or information provided by or on 

  
 -94- 

 
behalf of Parent, Co-Borrowers and their Affiliates hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting within a reasonable time after receipt from Parent or the
Co-Borrowers such Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) (or, to the extent Borrower Materials are not timely delivered to Agent, that such Borrower Materials have not yet been
received by Agent) and (b) certain of the Banks (each, a “Public Bank”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Parent, Co-Borrowers or their Affiliates, or the respective
securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities. Parent and Co-Borrowers hereby agree that (c) all Borrower Materials that are to be made
available to Public Banks, which are deemed by Parent and Co-Borrowers to be materials available to be released to the public, shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word
“PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (d) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” Parent and Co-Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Banks to treat such
Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws; (e) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are
permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and (f) Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for
posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information”. 
 (f) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS”
AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF BORROWER MATERIALS (AS DEFINED BELOW) OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM
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 BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Agent or any of its Affiliates or their respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees
or advisors (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to Parent, Co-Borrowers, any Bank, Issuing Bank or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or
otherwise) arising out of Parent’s, any Co-Borrower’s or 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 bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to
Parent, any Co-Borrower, any Bank, the Issuing Banks or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of any such transmission. 

10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Banks, any right, remedy,
power or privilege hereunder, 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. 

  
 -95- 

 10.04 Costs and Expenses. Parent and the Co-Borrowers shall: 

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, pay or reimburse Agent within five (5) Business Days after demand
for all costs and expenses incurred by Agent in connection with the development, preparation, delivery, administration and execution of, and any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to (in each case, whether or not consummated), this
Agreement, any Loan Document or any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including reasonable Attorney Costs in an amount agreed to between Parent,
the Co-Borrowers and Agent, and costs of commercial finance examinations, incurred by Agent; and 
 (b) Pay or reimburse the Banks within
five (5) Business Days after demand for all costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by it in connection with the monitoring administration, enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or remedies under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document during the existence of an Event of Default or after acceleration of the Loans (including in connection with any “workout” or restructuring regarding the Loans, and including in any Insolvency
Proceeding or appellate proceeding). 
 (c) The agreements in this Section shall survive payments of all other Obligations. 

10.05 Indemnity. Whether not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Parent and the Co-Borrowers, jointly and severally,
shall indemnify and hold the Banks, the Issuing Banks, and each of their Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact harmless from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Loans and the termination of the Letters of
Credit) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Person in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, or the transactions contemplated hereby, or any action taken or
omitted by any such Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing, including with respect to any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any Insolvency Proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to or arising out of this
Agreement or the Loans or Letters of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, however, that Parent and the Co-Borrowers shall have no obligation hereunder to any such indemnified Person with respect to any of the foregoing
indemnified liabilities found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified Person. The agreements in this Section shall survive
payment of all Obligations. 

  
 -96- 

 10.06 Joint and Several Liability of the Co-Borrowers. 

(a) Each Co-Borrower states and acknowledges that: (i) pursuant to this Agreement, the Co-Borrowers desire to utilize their borrowing
potential on a combined basis to the same extent possible if they were merged into a single corporate entity; (ii) each Co-Borrower has determined that it will benefit specifically and materially from the advances of credit contemplated by this
Agreement; (iii) it is both a condition precedent to the obligations of the Agent and the Banks hereunder and a desire of each Co-Borrower that each Co-Borrower execute and deliver to the Agent and the Banks this Agreement; and (iv) each
Co-Borrower has requested and bargained for the structure and terms of and security for the Credit Extensions contemplated by this Agreement. The general partner or managing member, as applicable, of each Co-Borrower has determined that such
Co-Borrower’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement may reasonably be expected to directly or indirectly benefit such Co-Borrower and is in the best interests of such Co-Borrower. 

(b) Each Co-Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: (i) agrees that it is jointly and severally liable to the Agent and the
Banks for the full and prompt payment and performance of the obligations of each Co-Borrower under this Agreement that may specify that a particular Co-Borrower is responsible for a given payment or performance; (ii) agrees to fully and
promptly perform all of its obligations hereunder with respect to each advance of credit hereunder as if such advance had been made directly to it; and (iii) agrees as a primary obligation to indemnify the Agent and each Bank, on demand, for
and against any loss incurred by the Agent or any Bank as a result of any of the Obligations of any Co-Borrower being or becoming void, voidable, unenforceable or ineffective for any reason whatsoever, whether or not known to such Co-Borrower or any
Person, the amount of such loss being the amount which the Agent or the Banks (or any of them) would otherwise have been entitled to recover from the Co-Borrowers. 

(c) The direct or indirect value of the consideration received and to be received by any Co-Borrower in connection herewith is reasonably
worth at least as much as the liability and obligations of each such Co-Borrower hereunder and the incurrence of such liability and Obligations in return for such consideration may reasonably be expected to benefit such Co-Borrower, directly or
indirectly. 
 10.07 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns, except that the Co-Borrowers may not assign or transfer any of their rights or Obligations under this Agreement without the written consent of the Banks. 

(b) The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Co-Borrowers, shall maintain a register for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the Banks, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive absent manifest error, and each Co-Borrower, the Agent and the Banks shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. 

  
 -97- 

 10.08 Assignments, Participants, etc. 

(a) Each Bank, at any time, may, subject to the consent of the Agent and each Issuing Bank, and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, the Co-Borrowers, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, assign and delegate all, or any ratable part of all, of the rights and obligations of such Bank hereunder to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided,
however, that the consent of the Co-Borrowers shall not be required with respect to an assignment from a Bank to one or more of its Affiliates or with respect to the assignment from one Bank to another Bank; provided, further,
that (i) any such disposition shall not, without the prior consent of the Co-Borrowers, require the Co-Borrowers to apply to register or qualify the Loans or any Note under the securities laws of any state, (ii) Co-Borrowers and the Agent
may continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with the interest so assigned to an Eligible Assignee until (x) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with
respect to the Eligible Assignee, shall have been given to the Co-Borrowers and the Agent by such Bank and the Eligible Assignee; (y) such Bank and its Eligible Assignee shall have delivered to the Co-Borrowers and the Agent an Assignment and
Assumption (“Assignment and Assumption”) in form attached hereto as Exhibit I, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment; and (z) the assignor Bank or Eligible Assignee has paid to the Agent a
processing fee in the amount of $3,500 (other than in the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of the assigning Bank) and (iii) each such assignment to an Eligible Assignee (other than any Bank) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of
$5,000,000 or a whole multiple in excess thereof (other than in the case of (A) an assignment of all of a Bank’s interests under this Agreement or (B) an assignment to an Affiliate of the assigning Bank), and provided,
further, that such an assignment may not be made to any Co-Borrower or an Affiliate thereof. 
 (b) From and after the date that a
Bank gives such notice to the Co-Borrowers, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption agreement, shall have the
rights and obligations of a Bank under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assignor Bank shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents. 
 (c) The Co-Borrowers shall execute and
deliver new Notes evidencing such assignee’s assigned Loans and the Commitment, and, if the assignor Bank has retained a portion of its Loans and the Commitment, replacement Notes in the principal amount of the Loans and the Commitment retained
by the assignor Bank (such Notes to be in exchange for, but not in payment of, the Notes held by the Bank). Upon receipt by the applicable Banks of the new Notes, the applicable Banks shall promptly deliver the original Notes to the Co-Borrowers.
This Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each assignee shall
reduce such Commitment of the assigning Bank pro tanto. 

  
 -98- 

 (d) Each Bank may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons not
Affiliates of the Co-Borrowers (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loans and the Commitment of such Bank and the other interests of such Bank (the “Originating Bank”) hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents; provided, however, that the Co-Borrowers shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Bank in connection with the Originating Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. 
 Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Originating Bank sells such a participation shall provide that such
Originating Bank shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Originating Bank will
not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in Section 10.01(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) that affects such Participant. Each Co-Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.01, 4.02 and 4.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein) to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section;
provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 10.16 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (a) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections
4.01 or 4.02, with respect to any participation, than its Originating Bank would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in Requirements of Law that occurs after the
Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Bank that sells a participation agrees, at the Co-Borrowers’ request, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Co-Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 10.16 with
respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Bank; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16 as though it
were a Bank. Each Originating Bank shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Co-Borrowers, 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 Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Bank 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 Bank 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 Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (e) Each
Bank agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions and exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all information identified as “confidential” or “secret” by the Co-Borrowers and provided to it by the Co-Borrowers
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall use any such information other than in connection with or in enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; except

  
 -99- 

 
to the extent such information (i) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by such Bank or any of its representatives, (ii) was or becomes
available on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Co-Borrowers, provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Co-Borrowers known to such Bank, or (iii) any information internally
developed by a Bank or its employees without the use of confidential or secret information furnished by any of the Co-Borrowers; provided, however, that each Bank may disclose such information (A) at the request or pursuant to any
requirement of any Governmental Authority to which such Bank is subject or in connection with an examination of such Bank by any such authority; (B) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (C) when required to do so in accordance with
the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (D) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which such Bank or its Affiliates may be party; (E) to the extent reasonably required in
connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (F) to such Bank’s independent auditors and other professional advisors; (G) to any Affiliate of such Bank and to the Bank’s and such
Affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, agents, consultants and counsel, for whom such Bank shall be responsible, or to any participant or assignee, actual or potential, any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to
any securitization, swap or derivative transaction relating to the Co-Borrowers, their Subsidiaries and the Obligations; provided, however, that such Affiliate, participant or assignee agrees to keep such information confidential to
the same extent required of such Bank hereunder, (H) to any credit insurer or reinsurer and (I) as expressly permitted under the terms of any other document or agreement regarding confidentiality to which the Co-Borrowers are party or are
deemed party with such Bank. 
 (f) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a
security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall
release such Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto. 
 10.09
Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Banks provided by law, if an Event of Default exists, the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks are authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Co-Borrowers,
any such notice being waived by the Co-Borrowers to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time
owing by, the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks to or for the credit or the account of the Co-Borrowers against any and all Obligations owing to the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not
the Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Banks shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. The Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks agree promptly to notify the
Co-Borrowers after any such set-off and application made by the Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Banks; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 

  
 -100- 

 10.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts,
each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument. 

10.11 Automatic Debit. With respect to any commitment, fee, arrangement fee, letter of credit fee or other fee, or any other cost or
expense (including Attorney Costs) due and payable to the Banks under the Loan Documents, the Co-Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent to debit any deposit account of Co-Borrowers with the Agent in an amount such that the aggregate amount
debited from all such deposit accounts does not exceed such fee or other cost or expense. If there are insufficient funds in such deposit accounts to cover the amount of the fee or the cost or expense then due, such debits will be reversed (in whole
or in part, in Agent’s sole discretion) and such amount not debited shall be deemed to be unpaid. No such debit under this Section shall be deemed a set-off. 

10.12 Bank Blocked Account Charges and Procedures. Agent is hereby authorized to charge any deposit account of the Co-Borrowers or any
of them maintained at Agent for any fee, cost or expense (including Attorney Costs) due and payable to the Banks under the Loan Documents. If the available balances in such deposit accounts are not sufficient to compensate the Banks for any such
charges or fees due the Banks, the Co-Borrowers agree to pay on demand the amount due the Banks. Each of the Co-Borrowers agrees that it will not permit the Bank Blocked Accounts to become subject to any other pledge, assignment, Lien, charge or
encumbrance of any kind, nature or description, other than the Banks’ security interest or any Lien the bank where such Bank Blocked Accounts are held may have. 

10.13 Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required
hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder. 

10.14 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Loan Parties
and the Banks and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents. 
 10.15 Acknowledgments. Parent and the Co-Borrowers hereby acknowledge that: 

(a) they have been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; 

(b) the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks have no fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection
with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks on the one hand and the Loan Parties on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtors and
creditor; and 

  
 -101- 

 (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by
virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Banks and the Loan Parties. 
 10.16 Replacement of
Banks. If any Bank requests compensation under Section 4.02, or if any Co-Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Bank pursuant to Section 4.01,
or in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.01, the consent of the Majority Banks shall have been obtained but the
consent of one or more of such other Banks whose consent is required shall not have been obtained, or with respect to any Bank during such time as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank, then the Co-Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon
notice to such Bank and the Agent, require such Bank to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.08), all of its interests, rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Bank, if a Bank accepts such assignment), provided that: 

(a) Such Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest
thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 4.03) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and
fees); 
 (b) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.02 or payments required
to be made pursuant to Section 4.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and 

(c) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws. 

A Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Bank or otherwise,
the circumstances entitling a Co-Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 10.17 GOVERNING LAW AND
JURISDICTION. 
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW (WITHOUT REFERENCE TO
PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE BANKS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW. 

(b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK; OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF PARENT, THE CO-BORROWERS AND THE BANKS 

  
 -102- 

 
CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. PARENT, THE CO-BORROWERS AND THE BANKS EACH IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY
OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO.
PARENT AND THE CO-BORROWERS EACH HEREBY WAIVE PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS UPON PARENT OR THE CO-BORROWERS AND IRREVOCABLY APPOINT CT CORPORATION SYSTEM, 111 EIGHTH AVENUE, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10011, AS REGISTERED AGENT FOR THE
PURPOSE OF ACCEPTING SERVICE OF PROCESS WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND AGREE TO OBTAIN A LETTER FROM CT CORPORATION ACKNOWLEDGING SAME AND CONTAINING THE AGREEMENT OF CT CORPORATION TO PROVIDE THE BANKS WITH THIRTY (30) DAYS ADVANCE
NOTICE PRIOR TO ANY RESIGNATION OF CT CORPORATION SYSTEM AS SUCH REGISTERED AGENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE
JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. 
 10.18 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HERETO EACH WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS
TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE
BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES HERETO EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT
TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN
PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF, THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. 
 10.19 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, EMBODIES THE ENTIRE
AGREEMENT AND UNDERSTANDING AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO, AND SUPERCEDES ALL PRIOR OR CONTEMPORANEOUS AGREEMENTS AND UNDERSTANDINGS OF SUCH PERSONS, VERBAL OR WRITTEN, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF. 

  
 -103- 

 10.20 Intercreditor Agreement. Each Bank hereby agrees that it shall take no action to
terminate its obligations under the Intercreditor Agreement and will otherwise be bound by and take no actions contrary to the Intercreditor Agreement. 

10.21 Amendment and Restatement. On the Closing Date, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended, restated and superseded in its
entirety by this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the liens and security interests granted under the Security Documents (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) are continuing and in full force and effect and, upon the
amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement pursuant to this Agreement, such liens and security interests secure and continue to secure the payment of the Obligations, and that the Working Capital Notes outstanding under and as
defined in the Existing Credit Agreement are, upon the Closing Date, replaced by the Notes issued hereunder. 
 10.22 USA Patriot Act
Notice. Each Bank and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank) hereby notifies Parent and each Co-Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L.
107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and
address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Bank or the Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Act. Each Loan Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide, to the
extent commercially reasonably, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by each Bank and the Agent to maintain compliance with the Act. 

10.23 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to
provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of CEA Swap Obligations, if any (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor
shall only be liable under this Section for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section, or otherwise under any Loan Document, voidable under applicable law relating to
fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for
the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
 10.24 IPO

other Loan Documents (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement).

FORM OF NOTE 
  

			
	$            	  	                 , 20    

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SPARK ENERGY, L.P. (“Spark”), a Texas limited partnership,
SPARK ENERGY GAS, LP (“SEG”), a Texas limited partnership, ASSOCIATED ENERGY SERVICES, LP (“AES”), a Texas limited partnership, SPARK ENERGY HOLDINGS, LLC (“SEH”), a Texas
limited liability company (jointly, severally and together, the “Co-Borrowers,” and each individually, a “Co-Borrower”), jointly and severally promise to pay to
                    , a                     
(“Bank”), at the office of Agent (as defined in the Credit Agreement defined below) or at such other place as Bank from time to time may designate, the principal sum of
                     and no/100 Dollars ($        ) (the “Maximum Loan Amount”), or so
much of that sum as may be advanced under this promissory note (“Note”), plus interest as specified in this Note. This Note evidences a loan (“Loan”) from Bank to the Co-Borrowers. 

This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated effective as of July 31, 2013, among
Spark Energy Ventures, LLC, the Co-Borrowers and Bank, et al. (as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”). Each capitalized term used but not otherwise
defined in this Note shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Credit Agreement. Some or all of the Loan Documents, including the Credit Agreement, contain provisions for the acceleration of the maturity of this Note. 

This Note shall bear interest as is provided for in the Credit Agreement. 

Principal and accrued interest hereunder shall be due and payable as is provided for in the Credit Agreement. 

The Co-Borrowers may prepay the principal under this Note only in accordance with the Credit Agreement. 

If any Event of Default occurs, Bank shall have all remedies provided for under the terms of the Credit Agreement. 

All amounts payable under this Note are payable in lawful money of the United States during normal business hours of Agent at the office of
Agent indicated in paragraph one above or at such other place as Agent from time to time may designate. Checks constitute payment only when collected. 

Whenever the Co-Borrowers are obligated to pay or reimburse Bank for any attorneys’ fees, those fees shall include the reasonably
allocated costs for services of in-house counsel. 
 THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW (WITHOUT
REFERENCE TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE BANKS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS
ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW. 
 The Co-Borrowers agree that the holder of this Note may accept additional or substitute security for this
Note, or release any security or any party liable for this Note, and without affecting the liability of any Co-Borrower. 
 If Bank delays
in exercising or fails to exercise any of its rights under this Note, that delay or failure shall not constitute a waiver of any of Bank’s rights, or of any breach, default or failure of condition of or under this Note.

  
 Exhibit B 

 
No waiver by Bank of any of its rights, or of any such breach, default or failure of condition shall be effective, unless the waiver is expressly stated in a writing signed by Bank. All of
Bank’s remedies in connection with this Note or under applicable law shall be cumulative, and Bank’s exercise of any one or more of those remedies shall not constitute an election of remedies. 

Regardless of any provision contained in this Note or in any of the other Loan Documents, Bank shall never be deemed to have contracted
for or be entitled to receive, collect or apply as interest on the Loan, pursuant to this Note or any other Loan Document, or otherwise, any amount in excess of the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by applicable law, and, in the
event that Bank ever receives, collects or applies as interest any such excess, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of the Loan, and, if the principal balance of the Loan is
paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the Co-Borrowers. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the highest lawful rate, the Co-Borrowers and Bank shall, to the
maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee, or premium, rather than as interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effect thereof, and (c) spread the total
amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the Loan so that the interest rate is uniform throughout such term; provided, that if the Loan is paid and performed in full prior to the end of the full contemplated term thereof,
and if the interest received for the actual term thereof exceeds the maximum lawful rate, Bank shall refund to the Co-Borrowers the amount of such excess, or credit the amount of such excess against the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Loan
at the time in question. 
 This Note inures to and binds the successors and assigns of the Co-Borrowers and Bank;
provided, however, that the Co-Borrowers may not assign this Note or assign or delegate any of their rights or obligations except as permitted under the Credit Agreement.

AGREEMENT

firm which opinion shall state that such financial statements present fairly the financial position for the periods indicated in conformity with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the financial statements delivered pursuant to

true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date and after giving effect to this Amendment (except to the extent such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date).
