 FORM OF RECEIPTS,
DEPOSIT OF SERIES F PREFERRED STOCK, EXECUTION AND DELIVERY, TRANSFER, SURRENDER AND REDEMPTION OF RECEIPTS 

Section 2.1    Form and Transfer of Receipts. The definitive Receipts shall be substantially in the form set forth in
Exhibit A annexed to this Agreement, with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter provided. Pending the preparation of definitive Receipts, the Depositary, upon the written order of the Corporation, delivered in
compliance with Section 2.2, shall execute and deliver temporary Receipts which may be printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise substantially of the tenor of the definitive Receipts in lieu of which
they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the persons executing such Receipts may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Receipts. If temporary Receipts are issued, the
Corporation and the Depositary will cause definitive Receipts to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Receipts, the temporary Receipts shall be exchangeable for definitive Receipts upon surrender of the
temporary Receipts at an office described in the last paragraph of Section 2.2. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Receipts, the Depositary shall execute and deliver in exchange therefor definitive
Receipts representing the same number of Depositary Shares as represented by the surrendered temporary Receipt or Receipts. Such exchange shall be made at the Corporation’s expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the
temporary Receipts shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as definitive Receipts. Notwithstanding anything in this Deposit Agreement to the contrary, Receipts may be issued electronically or otherwise in
book-entry format. 
 Receipts shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the
Depositary. No Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless it shall have been executed manually or by facsimile signature by a duly authorized officer of the Depositary or,
if a Registrar for the Receipts (other than the Depositary) shall have been appointed, by manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary and countersigned by manual or facsimile signature by a duly authorized officer of
such Registrar. The Depositary shall record on its books each Receipt so signed and delivered as hereinafter provided. 

  
 3 

 Receipts shall be in denominations of any number of whole Depositary Shares. 

Receipts may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Deposit Agreement all as may be required by the Depositary and approved by the Corporation or required to comply with any applicable law or any regulation thereunder or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange
upon which the Series F Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts may be listed or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Receipts are subject. 

Title to Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt which is properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer,
shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument; provided, however, that until transfer of any particular Receipt shall be registered on the books of the Depositary as provided in
Section 2.3, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the Record Holder thereof at such time as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to dividends or
other distributions or to any notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes. 

Section 2.2    Deposit of Series F Preferred Stock; Execution and Delivery of Receipts in Respect Thereof. Subject to the
terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Corporation may from time to time deposit shares of Series F Preferred Stock under this Deposit Agreement by delivery to the Depositary of a certificate or certificates for such shares of Series F
Preferred Stock to be deposited, properly endorsed or accompanied, if required by the Depositary, by a duly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement, in form satisfactory to the Depositary, together with an executed Officer’s Certificate
attaching the Articles Supplementary and all other information required to be set forth therein, and together with a written order of the Corporation directing the Depositary to execute and deliver to, or upon the written order of, the person or
persons stated in such order a Receipt or Receipts evidencing in the aggregate the number of Depositary Shares representing such deposited Series F Preferred Stock. Each Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Depositary in accordance with the
terms of this Deposit Agreement shall be deemed to be incorporated into this Deposit Agreement and shall be binding on the Corporation, the Depositary and the Holders of Receipts to which such Officer’s Certificate relates. 

The Series F Preferred Stock that is deposited shall be held by the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office or at such other place or
places as the Depositary shall determine. The Depositary shall not lend any Series F Preferred Stock deposited hereunder. 
 Upon receipt by
the Depositary of a certificate or certificates for Series F Preferred Stock deposited in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2, together with the other documents required as above specified, and upon
recordation of the Series F Preferred Stock on the books of the Corporation (or its duly appointed transfer agent) in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, the Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement,

  
 4 

 
shall execute and deliver to or upon the order of the person or persons named in the written order delivered to the Depositary in accordance with the first paragraph of this
Section 2.2, a Receipt or Receipts evidencing in the aggregate the number of Depositary Shares representing the Series F Preferred Stock so deposited and registered in such name or names as may be requested by such person
or persons. The Depositary shall execute and deliver such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or such other offices, if any, as the Depositary may designate. Delivery at other offices shall be at the risk and expense of the person
requesting such delivery. 
 Section 2.3    Registration of Transfer of Receipts. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall register on its books from time to time transfers of Receipts upon any surrender thereof by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed
instrument of transfer. Such instrument of transfer shall include evidence of the authority of the party seeking transfer which shall include a signature guarantee from an eligible guarantor institution participating in a signature guarantee program
approved by the Securities Transfer Association, and any other reasonable evidence of authority that may be required by the Depositary. Thereupon, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts evidencing the same aggregate number of
Depositary Shares as those evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered and deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto. 

The Depositary shall not be required (a) to issue, transfer or exchange any Receipts for a period beginning at the opening of business 15
days next preceding any selection of Depositary Shares and Series F Preferred Stock to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of notice of redemption, or (b) to transfer or exchange for another Receipt any
Receipt called or being called for redemption in whole or in part except as provided in Section 2.8. 

Section 2.4    Split-ups and Combinations of Receipts; Surrender of Receipts and
Withdrawal of Series F Preferred Stock. Upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or at such other offices as it may designate for the purpose of effecting a split-up or
combination of such Receipt or Receipts, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall execute a new Receipt or Receipts in the authorized denomination or denominations requested, evidencing the aggregate
number of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered, and shall deliver such new Receipt or Receipts to or upon the order of the Holder of the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered. 

Any Holder of a Receipt or Receipts may withdraw the number of whole shares of Series F Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if
any, represented thereby by surrendering such Receipt or Receipts at the Depositary’s Office or at such other offices as the Depositary may designate for such withdrawals. Thereafter, without unreasonable delay, the Depositary shall deliver to
such Holder, or to the person or persons designated by such Holder as hereinafter provided, the number of whole shares of Series F Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented by the Receipt or Receipts so surrendered for
withdrawal, but Holders of such whole shares of Series F Preferred Stock will not thereafter be entitled to deposit such Series F Preferred Stock hereunder or to receive a Receipt evidencing Depositary Shares therefor. If a Receipt delivered by the
Holder to the Depositary in connection with such withdrawal shall evidence a number of Depositary Shares in excess of the number of Depositary 

  
 5 

 
Shares representing the number of whole shares of Series F Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall at the same time, in addition to such number of whole shares of Series F Preferred Stock and such
money and other property, if any, to be so withdrawn, deliver to such Holder, or subject to Section 2.3 upon his order, a new Receipt evidencing such excess number of Depositary Shares. 

In no event will fractional shares of Series F Preferred Stock (or any cash payment in lieu thereof) be delivered by the Depositary. Delivery
of the Series F Preferred Stock and money and other property, if any, being withdrawn may be made by the delivery of such certificates, documents of title and other instruments as the Depositary may deem appropriate. 

If the Series F Preferred Stock and the money and other property, if any, being withdrawn are to be delivered to a person or persons other
than the Record Holder of the related Receipt or Receipts being surrendered for withdrawal, such Holder shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order so directing the Depositary and the Depositary may require that the Receipt or
Receipts surrendered by such Holder for withdrawal of such shares of Series F Preferred Stock and money and other property, if any, be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer in blank. 

Delivery of the Series F Preferred Stock and the money and other property, if any, represented by Receipts surrendered for withdrawal shall be
made by the Depositary at the Depositary’s Office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of the Holder surrendering such Receipt or Receipts and for the account of the Holder thereof, such delivery may be made at such other place as may
be designated by such Holder. 
 Section 2.5    Limitations on Execution and Delivery, Transfer, Surrender and Exchange of
Receipts. As a condition precedent to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer, split-up, combination, surrender or exchange of any Receipt, the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents
or the Corporation may require payment to it of a sum sufficient for the payment (or, in the event that the Depositary or the Corporation shall have made such payment, the reimbursement to it) of any charges or expenses payable by the Holder of a
Receipt pursuant to Section 5.7, may require the production of evidence satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any signature and may also require compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary
or the Corporation may establish consistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement and/or applicable law. 
 The deposit of the
Series F Preferred Stock may be refused, the delivery of Receipts against Series F Preferred Stock may be suspended, the registration of transfer of Receipts may be refused and the registration of transfer, surrender or exchange of outstanding
Receipts may be suspended (i) during any period when the register of stockholders of the Corporation is closed or (ii) if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the Depositary, any of the Depositary’s Agents or the
Corporation at any time or from time to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental body or commission or under any provision of this Deposit Agreement. 

Section 2.6    Lost Receipts, etc. In case any Receipt shall be mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Depositary in its
discretion may execute and deliver a Receipt of like form and tenor in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Receipt, or in lieu of and in substitution for such 

  
 6 

 
destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt, upon (i) the filing by the Holder thereof with the Depositary of evidence satisfactory to the Depositary of such destruction or loss or theft of such
Receipt, of the authenticity thereof and of his or her ownership thereof and (ii) the Holder thereof furnishing the Depositary with an affidavit and an open penalty surety bond satisfactory to the Corporation. Applicants for such substitute
Receipts shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Depositary may prescribe and as required by Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code in
effect in the State of New York. 
 Section 2.7    Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Receipts. All Receipts
surrendered to the Depositary or any Depositary’s Agent shall be cancelled by the Depositary. Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Depositary is authorized and directed to destroy all Receipts so cancelled. 

Section 2.8    Redemption of Series F Preferred Stock. Whenever the Corporation shall be permitted and shall elect to redeem
shares of Series F Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the Articles Supplementary, it shall (unless otherwise agreed to in writing with the Depositary) give or cause to be given to the Depositary, not less than 5 days and not more than
60 days prior to the Redemption Date (as defined below), notice of the date of such proposed redemption of Series F Preferred Stock and of the number of such shares held by the Depositary to be so redeemed and the applicable redemption price, which
notice shall be accompanied by a certificate from the Corporation stating that such redemption of Series F Preferred Stock is in accordance with the provisions of the Articles Supplementary. On the date of such redemption, provided that the
Corporation shall then have paid or caused to be paid in full to Computershare the redemption price of the Series F Preferred Stock to be redeemed, plus an amount equal to any declared and unpaid dividends, without regard to, or accumulation of, any
undeclared dividends, except in the case of a redemption following a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event (as such term is defined in the Articles Supplementary), in which the Corporation will also pay the pro rated portion of dividends, whether or
not declared, for the dividend period in which such redemption occurs, in each case in accordance with the provisions of the Articles Supplementary, the Depositary shall redeem the number of Depositary Shares representing such Series F Preferred
Stock. The Depositary shall mail notice of the Corporation’s redemption of Series F Preferred Stock and the proposed simultaneous redemption of the number of Depositary Shares representing the Series F Preferred Stock to be redeemed by
first-class mail, postage prepaid, not less than 5 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption of such Series F Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares (the “Redemption Date”), to the Record Holders of the Receipts
evidencing the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed at their respective last addresses as they appear on the records of the Depositary; but neither failure to mail any such notice of redemption of Depositary Shares to one or more such Holders nor any
defect in any notice of redemption of Depositary Shares to one or more such Holders shall affect the sufficiency of the proceedings for redemption as to the other Holders. Each such notice shall be prepared by the Corporation and shall state:
(i) the Redemption Date; (ii) the number of Depositary Shares to be redeemed and, if less than all the Depositary Shares held by any such Holder are to be redeemed, the number of such Depositary Shares held by such Holder to be so
redeemed; (iii) the redemption price; (iv) the place or places where Receipts representing such Depositary Shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (v) that dividends in respect of the Series F Preferred
Stock represented by such Depositary Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such Redemption Date. In case less than all the outstanding Depositary Shares are to be redeemed, the Depositary Shares to be so redeemed shall be selected either pro
rata or by lot. 

  
 7 

 Notice having been mailed by the Depositary as aforesaid, from and after the Redemption Date
(unless the Corporation shall have failed to provide the funds necessary to redeem the Series F Preferred Stock evidenced by the Depositary Shares called for redemption) (i) dividends on the shares of Series F Preferred Stock so called for
Redemption shall cease to accrue from and after such date, (ii) the Depositary Shares being redeemed from such proceeds shall be deemed no longer to be outstanding, (iii) all rights of the Holders of Receipts evidencing such Depositary
Shares (except the right to receive the amounts described in clause (iv) of this paragraph) shall, to the extent of such Depositary Shares, cease and terminate, and (iv) upon surrender in accordance with such redemption notice of the
Receipts evidencing any such Depositary Shares called for redemption (properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Depositary or applicable law shall so require), such Depositary Shares shall be redeemed by the Depositary at a redemption price
per Depositary Share equal to 1/100th of the redemption price per share of Series F Preferred Stock so redeemed plus all money and other property, if any, represented by such Depositary Shares, including all amounts paid by the Corporation in
respect of dividends (and not previously distributed to the Holders of Depositary Shares) in accordance with the provisions of the Articles Supplementary. 

If fewer than all of the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt are called for redemption, the Depositary will deliver to the Holder of such
Receipt upon its surrender to the Depositary, together with the redemption payment, a new Receipt evidencing the Depositary Shares evidenced by such prior Receipt and not called for redemption. 

Section 2.9    Deposits. All funds received by Computershare under this Agreement that are to be distributed or applied by
Computershare in the performance of the services hereunder (the “Funds”) shall be held by Computershare as agent for the Corporation and deposited in one or more bank accounts to be maintained by Computershare in its name as agent for the
Corporation. Until paid pursuant to this Agreement, Computershare may hold or invest the Funds through such accounts in: (i) obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States of America, (ii) commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“S&P”) or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), respectively,
(iii) money market funds that comply with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or (iv) demand deposit accounts, short term certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or
bankers’ acceptances, of commercial banks with Tier 1 capital exceeding $1 billion and with an average rating above investment grade by S&P (LT Local Issuer Credit Rating), Moody’s (Long Term Rating) and Fitch Ratings, Inc. (LT
Issuer Default Rating) (each as reported by Bloomberg Finance L.P.). Computershare shall have no responsibility or liability for any diminution of the Funds that may result from any deposit or investment made by Computershare in accordance
with this paragraph, including any losses resulting from a default by any bank, financial institution or other third party. Computershare may from time to time receive interest, dividends or other earnings in connection with such deposits
or investments. Computershare shall not be obligated to pay such interest, dividends or earnings to the Corporation, any holder or any other party.

 Section 2.10    Receipts Issuable in Global Registered Form. If the
Corporation shall determine in a writing delivered to the Depositary that the Receipts are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Registered Receipts, then the Depositary shall, in accordance with the other provisions of
this Deposit Agreement, execute and deliver one or more Global Registered Receipts evidencing the Receipts, which (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of, the Receipts to be
represented by such Global Registered Receipt or Global Registered Receipts, and (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Global Receipt Depository therefor or its nominee. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Deposit Agreement to the contrary, unless otherwise provided in the Global Registered Receipt, a
Global Registered Receipt may only be transferred in whole and only by the applicable Global Receipt Depository for such Global Registered Receipt to a nominee of such Global Receipt Depository, or by a nominee of such Global Receipt Depository to
such Global Receipt Depository or another nominee of such Global Receipt Depository, or by such Global Receipt Depository or any such nominee to a successor Global Receipt Depository for such Global Registered Receipt selected or approved by the
Corporation or to a nominee of such successor Global Receipt Depository. Except as provided below, owners solely of beneficial interests in a Global Registered Receipt shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of the Receipts represented by
such Global Registered Receipt. Neither any such beneficial owner nor any direct or indirect participant of a Global Receipt Depository shall have any rights under this Deposit Agreement with respect to any Global Registered Receipt held on their
behalf by a Global Receipt Depository and such Global Receipt Depository may be treated by the Corporation, the Depositary and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or the Depositary as the holder of such Global Registered
Receipt for all purposes whatsoever. Unless and until definitive Receipts are delivered to the owners of the beneficial interests in a Global Registered Receipt, (i) the applicable Global Receipt Depository will make book-entry transfers among
its participants and receive and transmit all payments and distributions in respect of the Global Registered Receipts to such participants, in each case, in accordance with its applicable procedures and arrangements, and (ii) whenever any
notice, payment or other communication to the holders of Global Registered Receipts is required under this Deposit Agreement, the Corporation and the Depositary shall give all such notices, payments and communications specified herein to be given to
such holders to the applicable Global Receipt Depository. 
 If an Exchange Event has occurred with respect to any Global Registered
Receipt, then the Depositary shall, upon receipt of a written order from the Corporation for the execution and delivery of individual definitive registered Receipts in exchange for such Global Registered Receipt, execute and deliver individual
definitive registered Receipts, in authorized denominations and of like tenor and terms in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Registered Receipt so exchanged, in exchange for such Global Registered Receipt.

 Definitive registered Receipts issued in exchange for a Global Registered Receipt pursuant to this Section 2.10
shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Global Receipt Depository for such Global Registered Receipt, pursuant to instructions from its participants, shall instruct the Depositary in writing. The Depositary
shall deliver such Receipts to the persons in whose names such Receipts are so registered.

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Deposit Agreement, should the Corporation
determine that the Receipts should be issued as a Global Registered Receipt, the parties hereto shall comply with the terms of any Letter of Representations. 

ARTICLE III 
 CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS
OF HOLDERS OF RECEIPTS AND THE CORPORATION 
 Section 3.1    Filing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information. Any Holder
of a Receipt may be required from time to time to file such proof of residence, or other matters or other information, to execute such certificates and to make such representations and warranties as the Depositary or the Corporation may reasonably
deem necessary or proper. The Depositary or the Corporation may withhold the delivery, or delay the registration of transfer or redemption, of any Receipt or the withdrawal of the Series F Preferred Stock and all money or other property, if any,
represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt or the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or the sale of any rights or of the proceeds thereof until such proof or other information is filed or such certificates are
executed or such representations and warranties are made. 
 Section 3.2    Payment of Taxes or Other Governmental Charges.
Holders of Receipts shall be obligated to make payments to the Depositary of certain charges and expenses, as provided in Section 5.7. Registration of transfer of any Receipt or any withdrawal of Series F Preferred Stock
and all money or other property, if any, represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt may be refused until any such payment due is made, and any dividends, interest payments or other distributions may be withheld or any part of or
all the Series F Preferred Stock or other property represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt and not theretofore sold may be sold for the account of the Holder thereof (after attempting by reasonable means to notify such Holder
prior to such sale), and such dividends, interest payments or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale may be applied to any payment of such charges or expenses, the Holder of such Receipt remaining liable for any deficiency. 

Section 3.3    Warranty as to Series F Preferred Stock. The Corporation hereby represents and warrants that the Series F
Preferred Stock, when issued, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Series F Preferred Stock and the issuance of the related Receipts. 

Section 3.4    Warranty as to Receipts. The Corporation hereby represents and warrants that the Receipts, when issued, will
represent legal and valid interests in the Series F Preferred Stock. Such representation and warranty shall survive the deposit of the Series F Preferred Stock and the issuance of the Receipts. 

ARTICLE IV 
 THE DEPOSITED
SECURITIES; NOTICES 
 Section 4.1    Cash Distributions. Whenever Computershare shall receive any cash dividend or other
cash distribution on the Series F Preferred Stock, Computershare shall, subject to Sections 3.1 

  
 10 

 
and 3.2, distribute to Record Holders of Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of such dividend or distribution as are, as nearly
as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts held by such Holders; provided, however, that in case the Corporation or Computershare shall be required to withhold and shall
withhold from any cash dividend or other cash distribution in respect of the Series F Preferred Stock an amount on account of taxes, the amount made available for distribution or distributed in respect of Depositary Shares shall be reduced
accordingly. Computershare shall distribute or make available for distribution, as the case may be, only such amount, however, as can be distributed without attributing to any Holder of Receipts a fraction of one cent, and any balance not so
distributable shall be held by the Depositary (without liability for interest thereon) and shall be added to and be treated as part of the next sum received by Computershare for distribution to Record Holders of Receipts then outstanding. Each
Holder of a Receipt shall provide the Depositary with its certified tax identification number on a properly completed Form W-8BEN,
W-8BEN-E (or other appropriate Form W-8) or W-9, as may be applicable. Each Holder of a
Receipt acknowledges that, in the event of non-compliance with the preceding sentence, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, may require withholding by the Depositary of a portion of any of the
distributions to be made hereunder. 
 Section 4.2    Distributions Other than Cash, Rights, Preferences or Privileges.
Whenever the Depositary shall receive any distribution other than cash, rights, preferences or privileges upon the Series F Preferred Stock, the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, distribute to Record Holders of
Receipts on the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.4 such amounts of the securities or property received by it as are, as nearly as practicable, in proportion to the respective numbers of Depositary Shares evidenced by
such Receipts held by such Holders, in any manner that the Depositary may deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution. If in the opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made proportionately among such Record
Holders, or if for any other reason (including any requirement that the Corporation or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes) the Depositary deems, after consultation with the Corporation, such distribution not to be feasible, the
Depositary may, with the approval of the Corporation, adopt such method as it deems equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the sale (at public or private sale) of the securities or property thus received,
or any part thereof, in a commercially reasonable manner. The net proceeds of any such sale shall, subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed or made available for distribution, as the case may be, by the Depositary to Record
Holders of Receipts as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash. The Corporation shall not make any distribution of any such securities or property to the Depositary and the Depositary shall
not make any distribution of any such securities or property to the Holders of Receipts unless the Corporation shall have provided an opinion of counsel stating that such securities or property have been registered under the Securities Act or do not
need to be registered in connection with such distributions. 
 Section 4.3    Subscription Rights, Preferences or
Privileges. If the Corporation shall at any time offer or cause to be offered to the persons in whose names the Series F Preferred Stock is recorded on the books of the Corporation any rights, preferences or privileges to subscribe for or to
purchase any securities or any rights, preferences or privileges of any other nature, such rights, preferences or privileges shall in each such instance be made available by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Receipts in such manner as the
Corporation shall direct and the Depositary 

  
 11 

 
shall agree, either by the issue to such Record Holders of warrants representing such rights, preferences or privileges or by such other method as may be approved by the Depositary and the
Corporation; provided, however, that (i) if at the time of issue or offer of any such rights, preferences or privileges the Depositary determines that it is not lawful or (after consultation with the Corporation) not feasible to
make such rights, preferences or privileges available to Holders of Receipts by the issue of warrants or otherwise, or (ii) if and to the extent so instructed by Holders of Receipts who do not desire to exercise such rights, preferences or
privileges, then the Depositary, in its discretion (with approval of the Corporation, in any case where the Depositary has determined that it is not feasible to make such rights, preferences or privileges available), may, if applicable laws or the
terms of such rights, preferences or privileges permit such transfer, sell such rights, preferences or privileges at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper. The net proceeds of any such sale shall,
subject to Sections 3.1 and 3.2, be distributed by the Depositary to the Record Holders of Receipts entitled thereto as provided by Section 4.1 in the case of a distribution received in cash. 

The Corporation shall notify the Depositary whether registration under the Securities Act of the securities to which any rights, preferences
or privileges relate is required in order for Holders of Receipts to be offered or sold the securities to which such rights, preferences or privileges relate, and the Corporation agrees with the Depositary that it will file promptly a registration
statement pursuant to the Securities Act with respect to such rights, preferences or privileges and securities and use its best efforts and take all steps available to it to cause such registration statement to become effective sufficiently in
advance of the expiration of such rights, preferences or privileges to enable such Holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges. In no event shall the Depositary make available to the Holders of Receipts any right, preference or
privilege to subscribe for or to purchase any securities unless and until such registration statement shall have become effective, or the Corporation shall have provided to the Depositary an opinion of counsel to the effect that the offering and
sale of such securities to the Holders are exempt from registration under the provisions of the Securities Act. 
 The Corporation shall
notify the Depositary whether any other action under the laws of any jurisdiction or any governmental or administrative authorization, consent or permit is required in order for such rights, preferences or privileges to be made available to Holders
of Receipts, and the Corporation agrees with the Depositary that the Corporation will use its reasonable best efforts to take such action or obtain such authorization, consent or permit sufficiently in advance of the expiration of such rights,
preferences or privileges to enable such Holders to exercise such rights, preferences or privileges. 
 Section 4.4    Notice of
Dividends, etc.; Fixing Record Date for Holders of Receipts. Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or if rights, preferences or privileges shall at any time
be offered, with respect to the Series F Preferred Stock, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting at which holders of the Series F Preferred Stock are entitled to vote or of which holders of the Series F Preferred Stock are
entitled to notice, or whenever the Depositary and the Corporation shall decide it is appropriate, the Depositary shall in each such instance fix a record date (which shall be the same date as the record date fixed by the Corporation with respect to
or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Series F Preferred Stock) for the determination of the Holders of Receipts who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, rights, 

  
 12 

 
preferences or privileges or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting, or who shall be entitled to notice of such
meeting or for any other appropriate reasons. 
 Section 4.5    Voting Rights. Subject to the provisions of the Articles
Supplementary, upon receipt of notice of any meeting at which the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the Record Holders of Receipts a notice prepared by the
Corporation which shall contain (i) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting and (ii) a statement that the Holders may, subject to any applicable restrictions, instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting
rights pertaining to the amount of Series F Preferred Stock represented by their respective Depositary Shares (including an express indication that instructions may be given to the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by
the Corporation) and a brief statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given. Upon the written request of the Holders of Receipts on the relevant record date, the Depositary shall endeavor insofar as practicable to vote or cause
to be voted, in accordance with the instructions set forth in such requests, the maximum number of whole shares of Series F Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by all Receipts as to which any particular voting instructions
are received. The Corporation hereby agrees to take all reasonable action which may be deemed necessary by the Depositary in order to enable the Depositary to vote such Series F Preferred Stock or cause such Series F Preferred Stock to be voted. In
the absence of specific instructions from the Holder of a Receipt, the Depositary will not vote (but, at its discretion, may appear at any meeting with respect to such Series F Preferred Stock unless directed to the contrary by the Holders of all
the Receipts) to the extent of the Series F Preferred Stock represented by the Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt. 

Section 4.6    Changes Affecting Deposited Securities and Reclassifications, Recapitalizations, etc. Upon any change in par or
stated value, split-up, combination or any other reclassification of the Series F Preferred Stock, subject to the provisions of the Articles Supplementary, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger
or consolidation affecting the Corporation or to which it is a party, the Depositary may in its discretion with the approval of, and shall upon the instructions of, the Corporation, and (in either case) in such manner as the Depositary may deem
equitable, (i) make such adjustments as are certified by the Corporation in the fraction of an interest in one share of Series F Preferred Stock represented by one Depositary Share and in the ratio of the redemption price per Depositary Share
to the redemption price per share of Series F Preferred Stock, in each case as may be necessary fully to reflect the effects of such change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or other
reclassification of the Series F Preferred Stock, or of such recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation and (ii) treat any securities which shall be received by the Depositary in exchange for or upon conversion of or in respect
of the Series F Preferred Stock as new deposited securities so received in exchange for or upon conversion or in respect of such Series F Preferred Stock. In any such case the Depositary may in its discretion, with the approval of the Corporation,
execute and deliver additional Receipts or may call for the surrender of all outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new deposited securities. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, Holders of
Receipts shall have the right from and after the effective date of any such change in par or stated value, split-up, combination or other reclassification of the Series F Preferred Stock or any such
recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation to surrender 

  
 13 

 
such Receipts to the Depositary with instructions to convert, exchange or surrender the Series F Preferred Stock represented thereby only into or for, as the case may be, the kind and amount of
shares and other securities and property and cash into which the Series F Preferred Stock represented by such Receipts might have been converted or for which such Series F Preferred Stock might have been exchanged or surrendered immediately prior to
the effective date of such transaction. 
 Section 4.7    Delivery of Reports. The Depositary shall furnish to Holders of
Receipts any reports and communications received from the Corporation which is received by the Depositary and which the Corporation is required to furnish to the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock. 

Section 4.8    Lists of Receipt Holders. Reasonably promptly upon request from time to time by the Corporation, at the sole
expense of the Corporation, the Depositary shall furnish to it a list, as of the most recent practicable date, of the names, addresses and holdings of Depositary Shares of all registered Holders of Receipts. 

ARTICLE V 
 THE DEPOSITARY, THE
DEPOSITARY’S AGENTS, THE REGISTRAR AND THE CORPORATION 
 Section 5.1    Maintenance of Offices, Agencies and Transfer
Books by the Depositary; Registrar. Upon execution of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall maintain at the Depositary’s Office, facilities for the execution and delivery, registration and registration of transfer, surrender and
exchange of Receipts, and at the offices of the Depositary’s Agents, if any, facilities for the delivery, registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of Receipts, all in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement. 

The Depositary shall keep books at the Depositary’s Office for the registration and registration of transfer of Receipts, which books at
all reasonable times shall be open for inspection by the Record Holders of Receipts; provided that any such Holder requesting to exercise such right shall certify to the Depositary that such inspection shall be for a proper purpose reasonably
related to such person’s interest as an owner of Depositary Shares evidenced by the Receipts. The Depositary shall promptly notify the Corporation following the receipt of any such request by a Holder. 

The Depositary may close such books, at any time or from time to time, when deemed expedient by it in connection with the performance of its
duties hereunder. 
 The Depositary may, with the approval of the Corporation, appoint a Registrar for registration of the Receipts or the
Depositary Shares evidenced thereby. If the Receipts or the Depositary Shares evidenced thereby or the Series F Preferred Stock represented by such Depositary Shares shall be listed on one or more national securities exchanges, the Depositary will
appoint a Registrar (acceptable to the Corporation) for registration of the Receipts or Depositary Shares in accordance with any requirements of such exchange. Such Registrar (which may be the Depositary if so permitted by the requirements of any
such exchange) may be removed and a substitute registrar appointed by the Depositary upon the request or with the 

  
 14 

 
approval of the Corporation. If the Receipts, Depositary Shares or Series F Preferred Stock are listed on one or more other securities exchanges, the Depositary will, at the request of the
Corporation, arrange such facilities for the delivery, registration, registration of transfer, surrender and exchange of the Receipts, Depositary Shares or Series F Preferred Stock as may be required by law or applicable securities exchange
regulation. 
 Section 5.2    Prevention of or Delay in Performance by the Depositary, the Depositary’s
Agents, the Registrar or the Corporation. Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor the Corporation shall incur any liability to any Holder of a Receipt if by reason of any provision of any present or future
law, or regulation thereunder, of the United States of America or of any other governmental authority or, in the case of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent or the Registrar, by reason of any provision, present or future, of the
Corporation’s Charter, as amended or supplemented (including the Articles Supplementary), or by reason of any act of God or war or other circumstance beyond the control of the relevant party, the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agent, the
Registrar or the Corporation shall be prevented or forbidden from, or subjected to any penalty on account of, doing or performing any act or thing which the terms of this Deposit Agreement provide shall be done or performed; nor shall the
Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar or the Corporation incur liability to any Holder of a Receipt (i) by reason of any nonperformance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing which the terms of
this Deposit Agreement shall provide shall or may be done or performed, or (ii) by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement except as otherwise explicitly set forth in this Deposit
Agreement. 
 Section 5.3    Obligations of the Depositary, the Depositary’s Agents, the Registrar and the
Corporation. Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor the Corporation assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to Holders of Receipts other than for its willful
misconduct, fraud or bad faith. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Deposit Agreement to the contrary, neither the Depositary, nor the
Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor the Corporation shall be liable in any event for special, punitive, incidental, indirect or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits) even if that
party has been advised of or has foreseen the possibility of such damages, other than for its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. 

Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar nor the Corporation shall be under any obligation to appear in,
prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of the Series F Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts which in its opinion may involve it in expense or liability unless indemnity satisfactory to it against all
expense and liability be furnished as often as may be required. 
 Neither the Depositary nor any Depositary’s Agent nor any Registrar
nor the Corporation shall be liable for any action or any failure to act by it in reliance upon the written advice of legal counsel or accountants, or information from any person presenting Series F Preferred Stock for deposit, any Holder of a
Receipt or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such information. The Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent, any Registrar and the 

  
 15 

 
Corporation may each rely and shall each be protected in acting upon or omitting to act upon any written notice, request, direction or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper party or parties. 
 The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instruction
to vote any of the shares of Series F Preferred Stock or for the manner or effect of any such vote made, as long as any such action or non-action is not taken in bad faith. The Depositary undertakes, and any
Registrar shall be required to undertake, to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Deposit Agreement against the Depositary
or any Registrar. 
 The Depositary, any Depositary’s Agents, and any Registrar may own and deal in any class of securities of the
Corporation and its affiliates and in Receipts. The Depositary may also act as transfer agent or registrar of any of the other securities of the Corporation and its affiliates. 

The Depositary shall not be under any liability for interest on any monies at any time received by it pursuant to any of the provisions of
this Deposit Agreement or of the Receipts, the Depositary Shares or the Series F Preferred Stock, nor shall it be obligated to segregate such monies from other monies held by it, except as required by law. The Depositary shall not be responsible for
advancing funds on behalf of the Corporation and shall have no duty or obligation to make any payments if it has not timely received sufficient funds to make timely payments. 

In the event the Depositary believes any ambiguity or uncertainty exists hereunder or in any notice, instruction, direction, request or other
communication, paper or document received by the Depositary hereunder, or in the administration of any of the provisions of this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
taking, omitting or suffering to take any action hereunder, the Depositary may, in its sole discretion upon written notice to the Corporation, refrain from taking any action and shall be fully protected and shall not be liable in any way to the
Corporation, any Holders of Receipts or any other person or entity for refraining from taking such action, unless the Depositary receives written instructions or a certificate signed by the Corporation which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty
to the satisfaction of the Depositary or which proves or establishes the applicable matter to the satisfaction of the Depositary. 
 From
time to time, the Corporation may provide the Depositary with instructions concerning the services performed by the Depositary under this Deposit Agreement. In addition, at any time, the Depositary may apply to any officer of the Corporation for
instruction, and may consult with legal counsel for the Depositary or the Corporation with respect to any matter arising in connection with the services to be performed by the Depositary under this Deposit Agreement. 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, excluding the Depositary’s willful misconduct, fraud or bad faith, the
Depositary’s aggregate liability during any term of this Agreement with respect to, arising from, or arising in connection with this Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Agreement, whether in contract,
or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder by the 

  
 16 

 
Corporation to Depositary as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event for which recovery from Depositary is
being sought. 
 The rights and obligations of the parties under this Section 5.3 shall survive any resignation or
succession of any Depositary, Registrar or Depositary’s Agent and the termination of this Deposit Agreement. 

Section 5.4    Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor Depositary. The Depositary may at any time
resign as Depositary hereunder by delivering notice of its election to do so to the Corporation, such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided. 

The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Corporation by notice of such removal delivered to the Depositary, such removal to take
effect upon the appointment of a successor Depositary hereunder and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided. 
 In case
at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be removed, the Corporation shall, within 60 days after the delivery of the notice of resignation or removal, as the case may be, appoint a successor Depositary, which shall be a bank or
trust company having its principal office in the United States of America and having a combined capital and surplus, of at least $50,000,000. If no successor Depositary shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 days after
delivery of such notice, the resigning or removed Depositary may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Depositary. Every successor Depositary shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the
Corporation an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereupon such successor Depositary, without any further act or deed, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor and
for all purposes shall be the Depositary under this Deposit Agreement, and such predecessor, upon payment of all sums due it and on the written request of the Corporation, shall promptly execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such
successor all rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title and interest in the Series F Preferred Stock and any moneys or property held hereunder to such successor, and shall deliver to
such successor a list of the Record Holders of all outstanding Receipts and such records, books and other information in its possession relating thereto. 

Any entity into or with which the Depositary may be merged, consolidated or converted shall be the successor of the Depositary without the
execution or filing of any document or any further act, and notice thereof shall not be required hereunder. Such successor Depositary may authenticate the Receipts in the name of the predecessor Depositary or its own name as successor Depositary.

 Section 5.5    Corporate Notices and Reports. The Corporation agrees that it will deliver to the Depositary, and the
Depositary will, promptly after receipt thereof, transmit to the Record Holders of Receipts, in each case at the addresses recorded in the Depositary’s books, copies of all notices and reports (including without limitation financial statements)
required by law, by the rules of any national securities exchange upon which the Series F Preferred Stock, the 

  
 17 

 
Depositary Shares or the Receipts are listed or by the Corporation’s Charter, as amended or supplemented (including the Articles Supplementary), to be furnished to the Record Holders of
Receipts. Such transmission will be at the Corporation’s expense and the Corporation will provide the Depositary with such number of copies of such documents as the Depositary may reasonably request. In addition, the Depositary will transmit to
the Record Holders of Receipts at the Corporation’s expense such other documents as may be requested by the Corporation. 

Section 5.6    Indemnification by the Corporation. Notwithstanding Section 5.3 to the contrary, the
Corporation shall indemnify the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and any Registrar (including each of their officers, directors, agents and employees) against, and hold each of them harmless from, any loss, damage, cost, penalty, liability or
expense (including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself) which may arise out of acts performed, suffered or omitted to be taken in connection with this Deposit Agreement and the Receipts by the Depositary, any Registrar or any of
their respective agents (including any Depositary’s Agent) and any transactions or documents contemplated hereby, except for any liability arising out of negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the respective parts of any such person or
persons. The obligations of the Corporation and the rights of the Depositary set forth in this Section 5.6 shall survive any resignation or succession of any Depositary, Registrar or Depositary’s Agent or the
termination of this Deposit Agreement. 
 Section 5.7    Fees, Charges and Expenses. The Corporation agrees promptly to pay
the Depositary the compensation to be agreed upon with the Corporation for all services rendered by the Depositary hereunder and to reimburse the Depositary for its reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Depositary without negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on its part (or on
the part of any agent or Depositary Agent) in connection with the services rendered by it (or such agent or Depositary Agent) hereunder. The Corporation shall pay all charges of the Depositary in connection with the initial deposit of the Series F
Preferred Stock and the initial issuance of the Depositary Shares, all withdrawals of shares of Series F Preferred Stock by Holders of Receipts, and any redemption or exchange of the Series F Preferred Stock at the option of the Corporation. The
Corporation shall pay all transfer and other taxes and governmental charges arising solely from the existence of the depositary arrangements. All other transfer and other taxes and governmental charges shall be at the expense of Holders of
Depositary Shares evidenced by Receipts. If, at the request of a Holder of Receipts, the Depositary incurs charges or expenses for which the Corporation is not otherwise liable hereunder, such Holder will be liable for such charges and expenses;
provided, however, that the Depositary may, at its sole option, require a Holder of a Receipt to prepay the Depositary any charge or expense the Depositary has been asked to incur at the request of such Holder. The Depositary shall
present its statement for charges and expenses to the Corporation at such intervals as the Corporation and the Depositary may agree. 

Section 5.8    Tax Compliance. The Depositary, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Corporation, will comply with all
applicable certification, information reporting, and withholding (including “backup withholding”) requirements imposed by applicable tax laws, regulations, or administrative practice with respect to (i) any payments made with respect
to the Depositary Shares or (ii) the issuance, delivery, holding, transfer, redemption, or exercise of rights under the Receipts or the Depositary Shares. Such compliance shall include, without limitation, the preparation and timely filing of
required returns and the timely payment of all 

  
 18 

 
amounts required to be withheld to the appropriate taxing authority or its designated agent. The Depositary shall comply with any direction received from the Corporation with respect to the
application of such requirements to particular payments or Holders or in other particular circumstances and may, for purposes of this Deposit Agreement, rely on any such direction in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.3 hereof. The
Depositary shall maintain all appropriate records documenting compliance with such requirements, and shall make such records available on request to the Corporation or to its authorized representatives. 

ARTICLE VI 
 AMENDMENT AND
TERMINATION 
 Section 6.1    Amendment. The form of the Receipts and any provisions of this Deposit Agreement may at any
time and from time to time be amended by agreement between the Corporation and the Depositary; provided, however, that no such amendment which shall materially and adversely alter the rights of the Holders of Receipts shall be
effective against the Holders of Receipts unless such amendment shall have been approved by the Holders of Receipts representing in the aggregate at least a majority of the Depositary Shares then outstanding. Every Holder of an outstanding Receipt
at the time any such amendment becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. In no event shall any amendment impair the
right, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.5 and 2.6 and Article III, of any owner of Depositary Shares to surrender any Receipt evidencing such Depositary Shares to the Depositary with instructions to deliver to the Holder
the Series F Preferred Stock and all money and other property, if any, represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law or the rules and regulations of any governmental body, agency or commission, or
applicable securities exchange. As a condition precedent to the Depositary’s execution of any amendment, the Corporation shall deliver to the Depositary a certificate from a duly authorized officer of the Corporation that states that the
proposed amendment is in compliance with the terms of this Section 6.1. 
 Section 6.2    Termination. This
Deposit Agreement may be terminated by the Corporation or the Depositary if (i) all outstanding Depositary Shares issued hereunder have been redeemed pursuant to Section 2.8, (ii) there shall have been made a final
distribution in respect of the Series F Preferred Stock in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation and such distribution shall have been distributed to the Holders of Receipts representing Depositary Shares
pursuant to Sections 4.1 or 4.2, as applicable, or (iii) upon the consent of Holders of Receipts representing in the aggregate not less than a majority of the Depositary Shares outstanding. In addition, either the Corporation or
the Depositary may terminate this Depositary Agreement at any time upon a material breach of this Agreement by the other that is not cured within thirty (30) days after the date of written notice thereof by the terminating party to the
breaching party. 
 Upon the termination of this Deposit Agreement, the Corporation shall be discharged from all obligations under this
Deposit Agreement except for its obligations to the Depositary, any Depositary’s Agent and any Registrar under Sections 5.6 and 5.7; provided, further, that Sections 5.3 and 5.6 and Article VII
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and any succession of any Depositary, Registrar or Depositary’s Agent.

1, dated as of May 29, 2020 (this “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement referred to below, is entered into
by and among CBOE GLOBAL MARKETS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), Lenders constituting the
Required Lenders, and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).
Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Amendment have the same meanings as specified in the Amended Credit Agreement referred
to below.

 

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower,
the Lenders from time to time party thereto and the Administrative Agent have entered into that certain Credit Agreement dated
as of March 22, 2018 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof,
the “Credit Agreement”, and the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment, the “Amended Credit
Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower
has requested that the Credit Agreement be amended as further set forth herein, on the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in this Amendment; and

 

WHEREAS, the Administrative
Agent and the Lender party hereto are willing, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below, to consent to the amendment
of the Credit Agreement as further set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the covenants and agreements contained herein, as well as other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1.     Amendments
to the Credit Agreement. As of the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below) the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting
the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text)
and by adding the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: double-underlined
text) as set forth in the pages of the Credit Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

 

SECTION 2.     Conditions
to Effectiveness. The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to the Administrative Agent’s (or its counsel) receipt
of the following (the date of such effectiveness, the “Amendment Effective Date”), each of which shall be originals
or telecopies unless otherwise specified, each properly executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (as applicable), each
dated the Amendment Effective Date (or, in the case of certificates of governmental officials, a recent date before the Amendment
Effective Date) and each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:

 

(a)          this
Amendment executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and Lenders constituting the Required Lenders;

 

(b)          such
certificates of resolutions or other action, incumbency certificates and/or other certificates of Responsible Officers of the Borrower
as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require evidencing the identity, authority and capacity of each Responsible Officer
thereof authorized to act as a Responsible Officer in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the
Borrower is a party;

 

     

     

    

 

(c)          At
least 3 days prior to the Closing Date, to the extent that the Borrower qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under
the Beneficial Ownership Regulation shall deliver, to any Lender that so requests, a Beneficial Ownership Certification; and

 

(d)          such
documents and certifications as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require to evidence that the Borrower is duly organized
or formed, and that the Borrower is validly existing and in good standing in its jurisdiction of organization.

 

The Administrative Agent shall
notify the Borrower of the Amendment Effective Date upon the occurrence thereof, and such notice and the effectiveness of this
Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement shall be conclusive and binding upon all of the Lenders and all of the other parties
to the Loan Documents and each of their successors and assigns; provided that, failure to give any such notice shall not affect
the effectiveness, validity or enforceability of this Amendment or the Amended Credit Agreement.

 

SECTION 3.     Representations
and Warranties. To induce the other parties hereto to enter into this Amendment, the Borrower represents and warrants the
Lender and the Administrative Agent, that:

 

(a)          The
Borrower has the all requisite power and authority and all requisite governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals,
to execute, deliver under this Amendment and to perform its obligations under this Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement.
The execution and delivery of this Amendment and the performance of this Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement by the Borrower
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action, and do not and will not contravene the terms
of any of the Borrower’s Organization Documents. No approval, consent, exemption, authorization, or other action by, or notice
to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority (other than any of the foregoing (x) which has been obtained or made and is
in full force and effect and (y) as to which the failure to obtain or make, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect) is necessary or required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance
of this Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement. This Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement constitute, a legal, valid
and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights generally and by general equitable principles or by principles of good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement
is sought in equity or at law).

 

(b)          The
representations and warranties of each Loan Party set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are, immediately
after giving effect to this Amendment on the Amendment Effective Date, true and correct in all material respects on and as of the
Amendment Effective Date with the same effect as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations
and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in
all material respects as of such earlier date); provided, however, that any representation and warranty that is qualified
as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be true and correct in all respects on such respective
dates; provided further, however, that for the purposes of this Section 3(b), clause (b) of the representation
made in Section 5.06 of the Amended Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to SEC public filings of the Company or its
Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof.

 

     

     

    

 

(c)          At
the time of and immediately after giving effect to this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby, no Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing on the Amendment Effective Date.

 

(d)          As
of the Amendment Effective Date, the information included in the Beneficial Ownership Certification, if applicable, is true and
correct in all respects.

 

SECTION 4.     Effects
on Loan Documents.

 

(a)          This
Amendment shall not constitute an amendment to or waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents,
except as expressly stated herein and shall not be construed as a consent to any action on the part of the Borrower or any other
Loan Party that would require an amendment, waiver or consent of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, except as expressly stated
herein. Except as specifically amended herein, the Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall continue to be in full force
and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed.

 

(b)          The
execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender
or the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents or
in any way limit, impair or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Loan
Documents.

 

(c)          The
Borrower and the Administrative Agent acknowledge and agree that, on and after the Amendment Effective Date, this Amendment shall
constitute and be designated as a Loan Document for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement.

 

(d)          On
and after the Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Amended Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”,
 “hereof”, “herein” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, and each reference in the
other Loan Documents to “Credit Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof” or words of like import
referring to the Credit Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement, and this Amendment and the Amended
Credit Agreement shall be read together and construed as a single instrument.

 

(e)          Nothing
herein shall be deemed to entitle any Loan Party to a further consent to, or a further waiver, amendment, modification or other
change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Amended Credit Agreement or any
other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.

 

(f)          The
parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) this Amendment and any other Loan Document executed and delivered in connection
herewith do not constitute a novation, or termination of the Obligations under the Credit Agreement as in effect prior to the Amendment
Effective Date; and (ii) such Obligations are in all respects continuing (as amended hereby) with only the terms thereof being
modified to the extent expressly provided in this Amendment.

 

     

     

    

 

SECTION 5.     Fees
and Expenses; Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to pay (a) on the Amendment Effective Date, all existing and unpaid
fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of counsel owing under the Credit Agreement, any fee letter or any other Loan
Document), including all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Amendment
and other matters relating to the Credit Agreement, in each case to the extent invoiced prior to the Amendment Effective Date and
(b) if invoiced on or after the Amendment Effective Date, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Amendment and any other documents prepared in connection herewith,
in each case to the extent required by Section 10.04 of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Borrower hereby confirms that the
indemnification provisions set forth in Section 10.04 of the Amended Credit Agreement shall apply to this Amendment and such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (as more fully set forth therein as applicable) which may arise herefrom
or in connection herewith.

 

SECTION 6.     APPLICABLE
LAW. THIS AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED
AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE
APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. SECTIONS 10.14, 10.15 and 10.16, OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT IS HEREBY INCORPORATED
BY REFERENCE AS IF FULLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MUTATIS MUTANDIS.

 

SECTION 7.     Amendments;
Execution in Counterparts; Severability; Electronic Signatures.

 

(a)          This
Amendment may not be amended nor may any provision hereof be waived except pursuant to a writing signed by each Loan Party, the
Administrative Agent and Lenders constituting the Required Lenders.

 

(b)          This
Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute
an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to
this Amendment by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart
of this Amendment.

 

(c)          In
the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Amendment is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected
or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in
and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith
negotiations to replace any such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which
comes as close as possible to that of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

 

     

     

    

 

(d)          This
Amendment and any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice, certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization
related to this Amendment (each a “Communication”), including Communications required to be in writing, may
be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures. The Borrower and each other Loan Party
agrees that any Electronic Signature on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on each Loan Party to the
same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the Loan Parties enforceable against such Loan Parties in accordance with the terms thereof
to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts
as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication.
For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the Administrative
Agent and each of the Lenders of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned
into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention.
The Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form
of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of
such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record,
including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity
and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under
no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Administrative
Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely
on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Loan Party without further verification and (b) upon
the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed
counterpart.

 

SECTION 8.     Headings.
Section headings are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other
purpose or be given any substantive effect.

Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Initial Lender agrees to make a single loan
(collectively, the “Committed Loans”) to the Borrower on the Closing Date, in an aggregate amount not to
exceed the amount of the Initial Lender’s Commitment. The Committed Borrowing shall consist of the Committed Loan made
by the Initial Lender in accordance with its Commitment. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01
and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. The Committed Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further
provided herein.

 

 2.02.            Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Committed Loans.

 

(a)            The
Committed Borrowing, each conversion of Committed Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone
or (B) a Committed Loan Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed immediately by delivery to the Administrative
Agent of a Committed Loan Notice. Each such Committed Loan Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00
a.m. (i) three Business Days prior to the requested date of the Borrowing of, any conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar
Rate Loans or of any conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Committed Loans, and (ii) on the requested date of the
Borrowing of Base Rate Committed Loans. The Borrowing of, each conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be
in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Borrowing of or each conversion to
Base Rate Committed Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed
Loan Notice shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting the Committed Borrowing, a conversion of Committed Loans
from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion
or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day),

principal amount of Committed Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Committed Loans to be borrowed

to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Committed Loans shall be made as, or converted
to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period
then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests the Borrowing of, a conversion to,
or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will
be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

 

(b)            Following
receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its
Applicable Percentage of the applicable Committed Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided
by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate
Loans described in the preceding subsection. In the case of the Committed Borrowing, each Lender shall make the amount of its
Committed Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s
Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction

funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by

Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period
for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate.

of Committed Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten (10) Interest Periods in effect with respect to Committed
Loans.

amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount
thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of

however, that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit
facilities, indentures or similar agreements or other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower
(by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make
such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any
prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any
additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

(c)            Application
of Prepayments. Subject to Section 2.13, each such prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) shall
be applied ratably to the Committed Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages to reduce the
scheduled remaining installments of principal in direct order of maturity and all prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) shall
be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid and any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05.

 

 2.04.            [Reserved].

 

2.05.            Repayment
of Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid aggregate principal
amount of all Committed Loans outstanding on the Maturity Date.

 

 2.06.            Interest.

 

(a)            Subject
to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus
the Applicable Rate and (ii) each Base Rate Committed Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof
from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

 

(b)            (i)            
If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at
all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

 

(ii)            If
any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard
to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required
Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default
Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

 

(iii)            Upon
the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists (other than as set forth in clauses (b)(i) and
(b)(ii) above), the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at
a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(iv)            Accrued
and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

 

(c)           Interest
on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may
be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment,
and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

 

2.07.            Fees.
The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such
fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

 

2.08.            Computation
of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference
to the Eurodollar Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed.
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 fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on
each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which
the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject
to Section 2.10(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate
or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

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

 

2.10.            Payments
Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

 

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

(b)            (i) Funding
by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior
to the proposed date of any Committed Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Committed Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Committed Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative
Agent such Lender’s share of such Committed Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02)
and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has
not in fact made its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender
and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately
available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to
but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender,
the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in
connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to
Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping
period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such
period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Committed Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid
shall constitute such Lender’s Committed Loan included in such Committed Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be
without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative
Agent.

 

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

A notice of the Administrative
Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent
manifest error.

 

(c)            Failure
to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by
such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the
Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV
are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds
as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

 

(d)            Obligations
of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Committed Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are
several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Committed Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment
under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding
obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Committed
Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c).

 

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

 

2.11.            Sharing
of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment
in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Committed Loans made by it, resulting in such Lender’s receiving
payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Committed Loans and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata
share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent
of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Committed Loans of the other Lenders, or make
such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in
accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Committed Loans and other amounts
owing them, provided that:

 

(i)            if
any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered,
such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without
interest; and

 

(ii)            the
provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant
to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence
of a Defaulting Lender) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation
in any of its Committed Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof
(as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

The Borrower consents
to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

 

2.12.            [Reserved].

 

2.13.            Defaulting
Lenders.

 

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

 

(i)            Waivers
and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect
to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 10.01.

 

(ii)            Defaulting
Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or
otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08 shall be
applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of
any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request
(so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has
failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if
so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to
satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth,
to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained
by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under
this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the
Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting
Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to
such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such
payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its
appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 were
satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis
prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the
Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to
a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13(a)(ii) shall
be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)            Certain
Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under Section 2.07 for any period during
which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have
been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

 

(b)            Defaulting
Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender,
the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject
to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans
of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Committed
Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages, whereupon such Lender will
cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or
payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that
except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will
constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

 

ARTICLE III.

 

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

 

3.01.            Taxes.

 

		(a)	Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

 

(i)            Any
and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or
withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion
of the Administrative Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Administrative Agent
or the Borrower, then the Administrative Agent or the Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, upon the
basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

 

(ii)            If
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United
States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the Administrative Agent shall
withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Administrative Agent to be required based upon the information and
documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the Administrative Agent shall timely
pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to
the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall
be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(iii)            If
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by any applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any
Taxes from any payment, then (A) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make
such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to
subsection (e) below, (B) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall
timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to
the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be
increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable
to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

 

(b)            Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely
pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely
reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

 

(c)            Tax
Indemnifications. (i) The Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in
respect thereof within 10 Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including
Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or
paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties, interest
and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or
legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to the
demanding Lender or Administrative Agent, be available to the extent that such liabilities are determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Lender or Administrative Agent. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability, with a reasonably
detailed calculation thereof, delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the
Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower
shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 Business Days
after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as
required pursuant to Section 3.01(c)(ii) below.

 

    	 	 34	 Cboe Global Markets, Inc. - Credit Agreement

(ii) Each
Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 Business Days after demand
therefor, (x) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent
that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation
of the Borrower to do so), (y) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable
to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of
a Participant Register and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes
attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower in connection with any Loan Document,
and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed
or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any
Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative
Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii).

 

(d)            Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority as provided in this
Section 3.01, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt
issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or
other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

 

		(e)	Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

 

(i)            Any
Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan
Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.
In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion,
execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.01(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below)
shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject
such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of
such Lender.

and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as

a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender
were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or
1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or
times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation
prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations
under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA”
shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

 

(iii)            Each
Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes
obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

 

(f)            Treatment
of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to
file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld
or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in
good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to
which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to the Borrower an
amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower
under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses
(including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay
the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any
amount to the Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net
after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such
refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with
respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available
its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other
Person.

(g)            Survival.
Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative
Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all other Obligations.

 

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

3.03.            Inability
to Determine Rates. If in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or
continuation thereof, (ai)
the Administrative Agent determines that (iA)
Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period
of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (iiB)
(x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period
with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan and
(y) the circumstances described in Section 3.03(c)(i) do not apply (in each case with respect to this
clause (a)(i) above, “Impacted Loans”), or (bii)
the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest
Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding
such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the
obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar
Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the
Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall
be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (or,
in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in clause (ii) of Section 3.03(a), until the Administrative Agent
upon the instruction of the Required Lenders)
revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion
to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing
that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount
specified therein.

 

(b)              
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (i)
Section 3.03(a)(i) of this section, the Administrative
Agent, in consultation with the Borrower and the affected Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted
Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative
Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (a) of the first sentence of this
sectionSection
3.03(a), (2) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that
such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans,
or (3) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to
such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority
has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent
and the Borrower written notice thereof.

 

(c)              
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent reasonably
determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Administrative
Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower) that the Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable)
have determined, that:

 

    	 	 39	 Cboe Global Markets, Inc. - Credit Agreement
(Term Loan Credit Facility)

     

    

 

(i)            adequate
and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because
the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

 

(ii)            the
administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made
a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or
used for determining the interest rate of loans, provided that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator
that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that will continue to provide LIBOR after such specific date (such specific
date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or

 

(iii)            syndicated
loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 3.03, are being executed
or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR,

 

then,
reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice,
as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement in a manner mutually agreeable solely for the
purpose of replacing LIBOR in accordance with this Section 3.03 with (x) one or more SOFR-Based Rates or (y) another
alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated
syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments
to such benchmark, giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated
credit facilities for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information
service as selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated
(the “Adjustment;” and any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), and any such amendment shall
become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment
to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative
Agent written notice that such Required Lenders (A) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in
clause (x), object to the Adjustment; or (B) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause
(y), object to such amendment; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of clause (A), the Required Lenders
shall not be entitled to object to any SOFR-Based Rate contained in any such amendment. Such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied
in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible
for the Administrative Agent, such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the
Administrative Agent.

 

If
no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled
Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative
Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or
maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods),
and (y) the Eurodollar Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such
notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate
Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have
converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount
specified therein.

(Term Loan Credit Facility)

     

    

 

Notwithstanding
anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be
less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.

 

In
connection with the implementation of a LIBOR Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, will
have the right to make LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective
without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected,
the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes to the Lenders
reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

 

3.04.            Increased
Costs; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.

 

		(a)	Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

 

(i)            impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets
of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated
by Section 3.04(e));

 

(ii)            subject
any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of
the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments,
or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

 

(iii)            impose
on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or
Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender;

 

and the result of any of the
foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of
maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender
hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to
such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction
suffered.

 

    	 	 41	 Cboe Global Markets, Inc. - Credit Agreement
(Term Loan Credit Facility)

     

    

 

(b)            Capital
Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or
such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing
the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence
of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such
Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such policies and the
policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay
to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any
such reduction suffered.

 

(c)            Certificates
for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its
holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered
to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

 

(d)            Delay
in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided
that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any
increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower
of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation
therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine- month
period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

 

(e)            Reserves
on Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves
with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency
liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs
of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be
conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower
shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest
from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest
shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

(Term Loan Credit Facility)

     

    

 

3.05.            Compensation
for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly
compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

 

(a)            any
continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base 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 the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert
any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or

 

(c)            any
assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request
by the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.13;

 

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. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative
fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

 

For purposes of calculating amounts payable
by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender 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.

 

3.06.            Mitigation
Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

 

(a)            Designation
of a Different Lending Office. Each Lender may make any Credit Extension to the Borrower through any Lending Office, provided
that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Credit Extension in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or requires the Borrower to pay
any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant
to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then at the request of the Borrower
such Lender shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans
hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment
of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01
or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as
applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise
be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in
connection with any such designation or assignment.

 

(b)            Replacement
of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified
Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01
and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.06(a),
the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments,
repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

of accounts among the Borrower and the Administrative Agent).

 

Without limiting the
generality of the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 9.03, for purposes of determining compliance with the
conditions specified in this Section 4.01, the Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented
to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved

ARTICLE IX.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

 

9.01.           Appointment
and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its
behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take
such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof,
together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for
the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any
of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents
(or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied
(or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom,
and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

 

9.02.            Rights
as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its
capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the
term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context
otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person
and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other
advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate
thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the
Lenders.

9.03.            Exculpatory
Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in
the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Administrative Agent:

 

(a)            shall
not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

 

(b)            shall
not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed
in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein
or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion
or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable
law including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law
or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief
Law; and

 

(c)            shall
not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for
the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained
by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

 

The Administrative
Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders
(or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good
faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence
of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such
Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.

 

The Administrative
Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation
made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other
document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of
any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the
validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument
or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to
confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

9.04.          Reliance
by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall

(including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.     The Administrative
Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person,
and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of
a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition
is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior
to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent
accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with
the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

 

9.05.            Delegation
of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under
any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent
and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective
Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of
the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication
of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not
be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub- agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction
determines in a final and non appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct
in the selection of such sub-agents.

 

9.06.            Resignation
of Administrative Agent.

 

(a)            The
Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice
of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall
be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such
successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the
retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders)
(the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to)
on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above, provided that in
no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such
resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b)            If
the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition
thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such
Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such
successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or
such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such
removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

 

(c)            With
effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for
any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications
and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly,
until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance
of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all
of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 3.01(g) and
other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation
Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable) and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged
from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided
above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable
to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative
Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04
shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective
Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring or removed Administrative
Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to
act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including (a) acting as collateral agent or otherwise holding
any collateral security on behalf of any of the Lenders and (b) in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring
the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

 

9.07.            Non-Reliance
on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that
it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and
based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking
or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished
hereunder or thereunder.

 

9.08.            No
Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Arranger shall not have any powers, duties or
responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the

9.09.            Administrative
Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial
proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be
due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have
made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

 

(a)            to
file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other
Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims
of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.07 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

 

(b)            to
collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee,
trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender
to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative
Agent under Sections 2.07 and 10.04.

as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses
(x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the

its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (z) arise solely from a dispute between
Indemnitees which (i) do not arise, in whole or in part, from any action or omission by the Borrower, and (ii) are
not brought against any person in its capacity as agent, arranger or a similar capacity. Without limiting the provisions of Section 3.01(c),
this Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses,
claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim

 

(c)            Reimbursement

any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub- agent)
or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable

The agreements in this Section and the indemnity provisions of Section 10.02(e) shall survive the resignation
of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all the other Obligations.

 

10.05.            Payments
Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender,

to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver
or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of

owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds (determined after giving effect to such assignments) that
equal at least the amount specified in or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund,
no minimum amount need be assigned; and

 

(B)            in
any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this
purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of
the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment
and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as
no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments
from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group)
will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

 

(ii)           Proportionate
Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned;

Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of

 (Term Loan Credit Facility)

     

    

 

(B)            the
consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment
is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender;

 

(iv)          Assignment
and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption,
together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative
Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee,
if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

 

(v)           No
Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made( A) to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s
Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a
Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural
Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural
Person).

 

(vi)         Certain
Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such
assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the
assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution
thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other
compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata
share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor
hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to
the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate)
its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without
compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender
for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording
thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of
the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement,
and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be
released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall
continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 11.04 with respect to
facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent
otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release
of any claim or any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, the
Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of
rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this
Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection
(d) of this Section.

 

(c)            Register.
The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes),
shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent
thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of,
and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
 “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder
for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(d)            Participations.
Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations
to any Person (other than a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the
primary benefit of a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any Affiliates or Subsidiaries of the Borrower) (each,
a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations
under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto
for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to
deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For
the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.04(c) without regard
to the existence of any participation.

Any agreement or
instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided
that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any
amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 11.01 that affects such
Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04
and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection
(b) of this Section (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(e) shall
be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its
interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees
to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.06 and 10.13 as if it were an assignee under paragraph
(b) of this Section and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01 or 3.04,
with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been
entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that
occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the
Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions
of Section 3.06 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant
agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall,
acting solely for this purpose as a non- fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and
address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans
or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender
shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any
Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its
other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish
that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-
1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent
manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of
such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt,
the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant
Register.

 

(e)            Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
(including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations
to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f)            Granting Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a
special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting
Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall
constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan; and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise
fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms
hereof. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (A) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option
shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement
(including its obligations under Section 3.04); (B) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar
payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable (which indemnity or similar payment obligation
should be retained by the Granting Lender); and (C) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval
of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder.
The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if,
such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which
agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the
payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join
any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation
proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Section 10.06, any SPC may (x) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its right to receive
payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (y) disclose
on a confidential basis (and in accordance with Section 10.07) any non-public information relating to its funding
of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity
enhancement to such SPC.

 

10.07.            Treatment
of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below) and shall use such Information solely for the purpose of providing the
services that are subject to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except that Information may be disclosed
(a) to its respective Affiliates, its auditors and its Related Parties who need to know such information in connection
with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (it being understood that
the Persons, including , for the avoidance of doubt, the Related Parties of such Persons, to whom such disclosure is made
will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential in
accordance with the provisions of this Section), (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority
having jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties, (c) pursuant to the order of any court or administrative
agency, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any
other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing
provisions substantially the same as those of this Section or as otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and
such Person, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any
swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower or any of its
subsidiaries or any of their respective obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis
to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided
hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP
numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with the consent of
the Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a
breach of this Agreement or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective
Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower that, to such Person’s knowledge, is not
subject to confidentiality obligations to the Borrower; provided, that, in the case of clauses (b) and (e) above
(except with respect to any routine or ordinary course audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental
bank or regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority), each of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders agree to (A) inform the Borrower promptly thereof prior to such disclosure to the extent not prohibited by law,
rule or regulation, (B) use its respective reasonable efforts, at the request and expense of the Borrower, to
cooperate with the Borrower to the extent the Borrower may seek to limit such disclosure, (C) exercise reasonable
efforts, at the Borrower’s expense, to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that
confidential treatment will be accorded to the information and (D) only disclose that portion of information such
Person’s counsel advises that it is legally required to disclose. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service
providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration
of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments.

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

 

Each of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower
or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non- public
information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United
States Federal and state securities Laws.

 

10.08.            Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective
Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set
off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any
time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any
demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or
unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding
such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise
any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for
further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.13 and, pending such payment, shall be
segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement
describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff
.. The rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to
notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the
failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

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

 

10.10.            Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts),
each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement
and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede
any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided
in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent
and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each
of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other
electronic imaging (e.g., “.pdf” or “.tif”) means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement.

 

10.11.            Survival
of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other
document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof
and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender,
regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the
Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall
continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

 

10.12.            Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the
legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be
affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal,
invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of
the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of
this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to
Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent then such
provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

10.13.            Replacement
of Lenders. If the Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.06, or if any
Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non- Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to
such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and
subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights (other
than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.04) and obligations under this Agreement and
the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if
a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.06(b);

 

(b)            such
Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued
fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05)
from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all
other amounts);

 

(c)            in
the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to
be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

 

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

 

(e)            in
the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented
to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

 

A Lender shall not
be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(b)            This
Agreement and any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice, certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization
related to this Agreement (each a “Communication”), including Communications required to be in writing, may be in the
form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures. The Borrower agrees that any Electronic Signature
on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on the Borrower to the same extent as a manual, original signature,
and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with the terms thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original
signature was delivered. Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper
and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization
under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders of
a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically
signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Administrative Agent and each
of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic
Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper
document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original
for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form
or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further,
without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature,
the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by
or on behalf of any Loan Party without further verification and (b) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender,
any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other
information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance
with the Act. The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all
documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing
