Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (vi) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto and (vii) the currency of the Loans to be borrowed. If the Borrowers fail to specify a currency in a Loan Notice
requesting a Borrowing, then the Loans so requested shall be made in U.S. Dollars. If the Borrowers fail to specify a Type of Loan in a Loan Notice or if the Borrowers fail to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or 

  

 36 

 
continuation, then the applicable Loans, shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans with respect to Domestic Revolving Loans, and, Eurocurrency Rate
Loans with an Interest Period of one month with respect to Foreign Revolving Loans; provided, however, that in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Loans shall be
continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans in their original currency with an Interest Period of one month. Any 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 Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If the Borrowers request a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, the Interest Period will be deemed to be one month.
No Loan may be converted into or continued as a Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Loan and reborrowed in the other currency. 
  
 (c) Following its receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each Lender of the amount (and currency) of its pro rata share of the applicable Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the
details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans or continuation of Loans denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, in each case as described in the preceding subsection. In the case of a Borrowing (other than a Borrowing of Foreign
Revolving Loans), each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the applicable currency not later than 1:00 p.m., in the case of any Loan
denominated in U.S. Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Loan in an Alternative Currency, in each case on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction
of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 5.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the applicable Borrowers in
like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrowers on the books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with
instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers; provided, however, that if, on the date of any Borrowing, there are Domestic L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing,
first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such Domestic L/C Borrowing, and second, shall be made available to the Borrowers as provided above. 
  
 (d) Except as otherwise provided herein, without the consent of the Required Lenders, (i) a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may
be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan and (ii) any conversion into, or continuation as, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be made only if the conditions to Credit Extensions in
Section 5.02 have been satisfied. During the existence of a Default or Event of Default, (i) no Domestic Revolving Loan may be requested as, converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan (whether in Euro or any Alternative
Currency) and no Foreign Revolving Loan may be continued as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan with an Interest Period greater than one month and (ii) at the request of the Required Lenders, any outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be converted to a
Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto. 
  
 (e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurocurrency Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The
determination of the Eurocurrency Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of any
change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change. 
  

 37 

 (f) After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all
continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect with respect to all Loans.

 (v) The Domestic L/C Issuer shall act on
behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Domestic Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith. The Domestic L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in

 (b) Procedures for Issuance and
Amendment; Auto-Extension Domestic Letters of Credit. 
  
 (i) Each Domestic Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrowers delivered to the Domestic L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a
Domestic L/C Application appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer. Domestic L/C Applications must be received by the Domestic L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days prior to
the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be, or such later date and time as the Domestic L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion. In the case of a request for an
initial issuance of a Domestic Letter of Credit, such Domestic L/C Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Domestic L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Domestic Letter of Credit (which shall be a
Business Day); (B) the amount and currency thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder;
(F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as the Domestic L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding
Domestic Letter of Credit, such Domestic L/C Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Domestic L/C Issuer (A) the Domestic Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a
Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the Domestic L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Borrowers shall furnish to the Domestic L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other
documents and information pertaining to such requested Domestic Letter of 

  

 39 

 
Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the Domestic L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require. 
  
 (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Domestic L/C Application,
the Domestic L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Domestic L/C Application from the Borrowers and, if not, the Domestic L/C Issuer will provide
the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Domestic L/C Issuer has received written notice from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Credit Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of
the applicable Domestic Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 5.02 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Domestic L/C Issuer shall, on the requested
date, issue a Domestic Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrowers (or their Subsidiaries) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the Domestic L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business
practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Domestic Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Domestic L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Domestic Letter of
Credit in an amount equal to such Lender’s Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof. 
  
 (iii) Promptly after its delivery of any Domestic Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Domestic Letter of Credit to an advising bank
with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Domestic L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Domestic Letter of Credit or amendment. 
  
 (iv) The Domestic L/C Issuer will provide to the
Administrative Agent, at least quarterly and more frequently upon request of the Administrative Agent, a summary report on the Domestic Letters of Credit it has issued, including, among other things, on whose account each Domestic Letter of Credit
is issued and each Domestic Letter of Credit’s beneficiary, face amount and expiry date. 
  
 (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. 
  
 (i) Upon any drawing under any Domestic Letter of Credit, the Domestic L/C Issuer shall notify the Domestic Borrower and the
Administrative Agent thereof. The Domestic Borrower shall reimburse the Domestic L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent promptly following notice in an amount equal to the amount of any such drawing. If the Domestic Borrower fails to make
reimbursement to the Domestic L/C Issuer by 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the Domestic L/C Issuer under a Domestic Letter of Credit (such date, a “Domestic L/C Honor Date”), for any reason, including lack of notice, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Domestic Revolving Lender of the Domestic L/C Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Domestic L/C Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Domestic
Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof. In such event, the Domestic Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Domestic L/C Honor Date in an amount equal to the Domestic L/C Unreimbursed Amount,
without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Domestic Revolving Committed Amount or the conditions set forth in
Section 5.02. Any notice given by the Domestic L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of
such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 
  

 40 

 (ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to
Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Domestic L/C Issuer, in U.S. Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its
Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Domestic L/C Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of
Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan to the Domestic Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to
the Domestic L/C Issuer in U.S. Dollars. 
  
 (iii) With respect to any Domestic L/C Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans for any reason, the Domestic Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Domestic L/C Issuer a Domestic L/C
Borrowing in the amount of the Domestic L/C Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which Domestic L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each
Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Domestic L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such Domestic L/C Borrowing and shall constitute
a Domestic L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03. 
  
 (iv) Until each Domestic Revolving Lender funds its Revolving Loan or Domestic L/C Advance pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the Domestic L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Domestic Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Domestic Revolving Lender’s Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage of such amount
shall be solely for the account of the Domestic L/C Issuer. 
  
 (v) Each Domestic Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Domestic Revolving Loans or Domestic L/C Advances to reimburse the Domestic L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Domestic Letters of Credit, as contemplated
by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Domestic Lender may have against the
Domestic L/C Issuer, the applicable Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (C) non-compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 5.02,
or (D) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that the Domestic L/C Issuer shall have complied with the applicable provisions of Section 2.03(b)(ii). No such making
of a Domestic L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse the Domestic L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the Domestic L/C Issuer under any Domestic Letter of Credit, together with
interest as provided herein. 
  
 (vi) If any
Domestic Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Domestic L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Domestic Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), the Domestic L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon
for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Domestic L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the
Domestic L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  

 41 

 (d) Repayment of Participations. 
  
 (i) At any time after the Domestic L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Domestic Letter of Credit and has
received from any Domestic Revolving Lender such Domestic Revolving Lender’s Domestic L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the Domestic
L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Domestic L/C Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrowers or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the
Administrative Agent will distribute to such Domestic Revolving Lender its Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Domestic Revolving
Lender’s Domestic L/C Advance was outstanding) in U.S. Dollars. 
  
 (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Domestic L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described
in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Domestic L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Domestic Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Domestic L/C Issuer its
Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Domestic Revolving Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the
applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Domestic Revolving Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement. 
  
 (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse
the Domestic L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Domestic Letter of Credit and to repay each Domestic L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement
under all circumstances, including the following: 
  
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Domestic Letter of Credit, this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document; 
  
 (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries may have at
any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Domestic Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Domestc L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this
Credit Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Domestic Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 
  
 (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Domestic Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing
under such Domestic Letter of Credit; 
  
 (iv)
any payment by the Domestic L/C Issuer under such Domestic Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Domestic Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the Domestic L/C Issuer
under such Domestic Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, 

  

 42 

 
debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any
transferee of such Domestic Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or 
  
 (v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that
might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries. 
  
 The Borrowers shall promptly examine a copy of each Domestic Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to the Borrowers and, in the
event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrowers’ instructions or other irregularity, the Borrowers will immediately notify the Domestic L/C Issuer. The Borrowers shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the
Domestic L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
  
 (f) Role of the Domestic L/C Issuer in such Capacity. Each Lender and the Borrowers agrees that, in paying any drawing under a Domestic Letter of Credit, the Domestic L/C Issuer shall not have any
responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Domestic Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the
Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Domestic L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Domestic L/C Issuer shall be liable to any
Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Domestic Letter of Credit or Domestic Issuer Document. The Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions
of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to such Borrowers’ use of any Domestic Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrowers’ pursuing such rights and
remedies as the Borrowers may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Domestic L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or
assignee of the Domestic L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such
clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers may have a claim against the Domestic L/C Issuer, and the Domestic L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrowers, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to
consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrowers that such Borrowers prove were caused by the Domestic L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Domestic L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Domestic
Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Domestic Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Domestic
L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the Domestic L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the
validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Domestic Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or
ineffective for any reason. 
  
 (g) Cash Collateral.
(i) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (A) if the Domestic L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Domestic Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (B) if, as of
the L/C Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the respective Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then-Outstanding Amount of its L/C Obligations, and the Administrative Agent may, at any
time and from time to time after the initial deposit of Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash 

  

 43 

 
Collateral be provided in order to protect against the results of exchange rate fluctuations and (ii) Sections 9.02(c) set forth certain
additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. The Domestic Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Domestic L/C Issuer and the Domestic Revolving Lenders, a security interest in all such cash,
deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. 
  
 (h) Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Domestic L/C Issuer and the Domestic
Borrowers when a Domestic Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Domestic Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Domestic Letter of Credit. 
  
 (i) Domestic Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries.
Notwithstanding that a Domestic Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, any Subsidiary of the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall be obligated to reimburse the Domestic L/C Issuer
for any and all drawings under such Domestic Letter of Credit. The Borrowers hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Domestic Letters of Credit for the account of any Borrower’s Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrowers, and that the
Borrowers’ businesses derive substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries. 
  
 (j) Domestic Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay Domestic Letter of Credit fees as set forth in Section 2.09(b). 

 
 (k) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict
between the terms hereof and the terms of any Domestic Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control. 
  
 2.04 Additional Provisions with respect to Domestic Swingline Loans. 
  
 (a) Borrowing Procedures. Each Domestic Swingline Borrowing shall be made in U.S. Dollars upon the Borrowers’
irrevocable notice to the Domestic Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Domestic Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
requested borrowing date, and shall specify (A) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of US$100,000, and (B) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly
by delivery to the Domestic Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Domestic Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Domestic Swingline Lender of any
telephonic Loan Notice, the Domestic Swingline Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Loan Notice and, if not, the Domestic Swingline Lender will notify the
Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Domestic Swingline Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00
p.m. on the date of the proposed Domestic Swingline Borrowing (1) directing the Domestic Swingline Lender not to make such Domestic Swingline Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in this Article II, or (2) that one or more
of the applicable conditions specified in Section 5.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Domestic Swingline Lender will, (A) not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such
Loan Notice, make the amount of its Domestic Swingline Loan available to the Borrowers at its office by crediting the account of the Domestic Borrower on the books of the Domestic Swingline Lender in immediately available funds or (B) endeavor
to make the amount of its Domestic Swingline Loan otherwise available as reasonably directed by the Borrowers. 
  

 44 

 (b) Refinancing. 
  
 (i) The Domestic Swingline Lender, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, may request, on behalf
of the Borrowers (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Domestic Swingline Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Domestic Revolving Lender make a Domestic Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s
Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage of Domestic Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of
Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Loans, the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Domestic Revolving Commitments or the conditions set forth in
Section 5.02. The Domestic Swingline Lender shall furnish the Borrowers with a copy of the applicable Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Domestic Revolving Lender shall make an amount
equal to its Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage of the amount specified in such Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the Domestic Swingline Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office for
Dollar-denominated payments not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(b)(ii), each Domestic Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a
Domestic Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan to the Domestic Borrower in such amount. In such case, the Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Domestic Swingline Lender. 
  
 (ii) If for any reason any Domestic Swingline Loan cannot be
refinanced by such a Borrowing of Domestic Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.04(b)(i), the request for Domestic Revolving Loans submitted by the Domestic Swingline Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by
the Domestic Swingline Lender that each of the Domestic Revolving Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Domestic Swingline Loan and each Domestic Revolving Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Domestic Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation. 
  
 (iii) If any Domestic Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Domestic Swingline
Lender any amount required to be paid by such Domestic Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(b) by the applicable time specified in Section 2.04(b)(i), the Domestic Swingline Lender
shall be entitled to recover from such Domestic Revolving Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is
immediately available to the Domestic Swingline Lender at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the Domestic Swingline Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent)
with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  
 (iv) Each Domestic Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Domestic Revolving Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in
Domestic Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such
Lender may have against the Domestic Swingline Lender, the applicable Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (C) non-compliance with the conditions set
forth in Section 5.02, or (D) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that the Domestic 

  

 45 

 
Swingline Lender has complied with the provisions of Section 2.04(a). No such purchase or funding of risk participations shall relieve or
otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrowers to repay Domestic Swingline Loans, together with interest as provided herein. 
  
 (c) Repayment of Participations. 
  
 (i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Domestic Swingline Loan, if the Domestic Swingline
Lender receives any payment on account of such Domestic Swingline Loan, such Domestic Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest
payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by such Domestic Swingline Lender. 
  
 (ii) If any payment received by a Domestic Swingline Lender in respect of principal or interest on any
Domestic Swingline Loan is required to be returned by such Domestic Swingline Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Domestic Swingline Lender in its
discretion), each Domestic Revolving Lender shall pay to such Domestic Swingline Lender its Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date
such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of such Domestic Swingline Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive
the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement. 
  
 (d) Interest for Account of Domestic Swingline Lender. The Domestic Swingline Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Domestic Borrower for interest on the Domestic Swingline Loans. Until each Domestic
Revolving Lender funds its Domestic Revolving Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Domestic Revolving Lender’s Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage of any Domestic Swingline Loan, interest
in respect thereof shall be solely for the account of the Domestic Swingline Lender. 
  
 (e) Payments Directly to Domestic Swingline Lender. The Domestic Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Domestic Swingline Loans, directly to the Domestic Swingline Lender.

  
 2.05 Repayment of Loans. 
  
 (a) Domestic Revolving Obligations. The Outstanding Amount of
Domestic Revolving Obligations (including the Outstanding Amount of any Domestic L/C Obligations not fully Cash Collateralized) shall be due and payable in full on the Revolving Termination Date. 
  
 (b) Foreign Revolving Obligations. The Outstanding Amount of Foreign
Revolving Obligations shall be due and payable in full on the Revolving Termination Date. 
  
 (c) Domestic Swingline Loans. The Outstanding Amount of the Domestic Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full on the earlier to occur of (i) the date of demand by the Domestic Swingline Lender and
(ii) the Revolving Termination Date. 
  

 46 

 2.06 Prepayments. 
  
 (a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Loans may be repaid in whole or in part without premium or penalty (except, in the
case of Loans other than Base Rate Loans, amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05); provided that: 
  
 (i) in the case of Loans other than Domestic Swingline Loans, notice thereof must be received by 11:00 a.m. by the Administrative Agent at
least (A) three Business Days prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars and Euro, (B) four Business Days prior to any date of prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans
denominated in Alternative Currencies other than Yen, (C) five Business Days prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Yen and (D) one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment, in the case
of Base Rate Loans, and in each case, any such prepayment shall be a minimum principal amount of (A) in the case of Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, US$5 million and whole multiples of US$1 million in excess thereof, where such Loans are
Eurocurrency Rate Loans, and US$500,000 and whole multiples of US$100,000 in excess thereof, where such Loans are Base Rate Loans, (B) in the case of Loans denominated in Euro, €5 million and whole multiples of €1 million in excess
thereof, and (C) in the case of Loans denominated in other Alternative Currencies (other than U.S. Dollars), a Euro Equivalent equal to €5 million and whole multiples of €1 million in excess thereof (rounded upward or downward in the
discretion of the Administrative Agent to whole multiples of the Applicable Currency), or, in each case, the entire remaining principal amount thereof, if less; and 
  
 (ii) in the case of Domestic Swingline Loans, (A) notice thereof must be received by the Domestic
Swingline Lender by 1:00 p.m. on the date of prepayment (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and (B) any such prepayment shall be in the same minimum principal amounts as for advances thereof (or any lesser amount that may be acceptable to
the Domestic Swingline Lender). 
  
 Each such notice of voluntary prepayment
hereunder shall be irrevocable and shall specify the date and amount of prepayment and the Loans and Type(s) of Loans that are being prepaid and, if Eurocurrency Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative
Agent will give prompt notice to the applicable Lenders of any prepayment on the Loans and the Lender’s interest therein. If such notice is given by the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in
such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Prepayments of Eurocurrency Rate Loans hereunder shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount prepaid and breakage or other amounts due, if any, under
Section 3.05. 
  
 (b) Mandatory Prepayments.

  
 (i) (A) Domestic Revolving
Commitments. If at any time (1) the sum of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Domestic Revolving Obligations plus the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Foreign Revolving Obligations shall exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed
Amount, (2) the Outstanding Amount of Domestic Revolving Obligations shall exceed the Aggregate Domestic Revolving Committed Amount, (3) the Outstanding Amount of Domestic L/C Obligations shall exceed the Domestic L/C Sublimit, or
(4) the Outstanding Amount of Domestic Swingline Loans shall exceed the Domestic Swingline Sublimit, prepayment will be made not later than the next Business Day on or in respect of the Domestic Revolving Obligations in an amount equal to the
difference; provided, however, that, except with respect to clause (3), Domestic L/C 

  

 47 

 
Obligations will not be Cash Collateralized hereunder until the Domestic Revolving Loans and Domestic Swingline Loans have been paid in full. 
  
 (B) Foreign Revolving Commitments. If at any time
(1) the sum of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Domestic Revolving Obligations plus the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Foreign Revolving Obligations shall exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount, (2) the Outstanding Amount of
Foreign Revolving Obligations shall exceed the Aggregate Foreign Revolving Committed Amount or (3) the aggregate principal amount of Foreign Revolving Obligations owing by any Designated Borrower shall exceed its respective Designated Borrowing
Limit, prepayment will be made not later than the next Business Day on or in respect of the Foreign Revolving Obligations in an amount equal to the difference. 
  

(ii) Asset Dispositions. Prepayment will be made on the Loan Obligations on the Business Day following receipt of Net Cash
Proceeds required to be prepaid pursuant to the provisions hereof in an amount equal to 75% of the Net Cash Proceeds received from any Asset Disposition by any member of the Consolidated Group, to the extent (A) such proceeds are not reinvested
in assets useful in the business of a member of the Consolidated Group within twelve months of the date of such Asset Disposition and (B) the aggregate amount of such proceeds that are not reinvested in accordance with
clause (A) hereof exceeds US$35 million in any fiscal year. 
  
 (c) Application. Within each Loan, prepayments will be applied first to Base Rate Loans, then to Eurocurrency Rate Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities. In addition: 
  
 (i) Voluntary Prepayments. Voluntary prepayments
shall be applied as specified by the Borrowers. Voluntary prepayments on the Loan Obligations will be paid by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective interests therein. 
  
 (ii) Mandatory Prepayments. Mandatory prepayments on
the Loan Obligations will be paid by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective interests therein; provided that: 
  
 (A) (1) Mandatory prepayments in respect of the Domestic Revolving Commitments under
subsection (b)(i)(A) above shall be applied to the respective Domestic Revolving Obligations as appropriate. 
  
 (2) Mandatory prepayments in respect of the Foreign Revolving Commitments under subsection (b)(i)(B) above shall be applied
to the respective Foreign Revolving Obligations as appropriate. 
  
 (B) Mandatory prepayments in respect of Asset Dispositions under subsection (b)(ii) above shall be applied, (1) if the assets subject to a prepayment resulting from an Asset Disposition were owned by
a Foreign Subsidiary to outstanding Foreign Revolving Loans as selected by the Foreign Borrowers and (2) if the assets subject to a prepayment resulting from an Asset Disposition were owned by a Domestic Subsidiary, to the Domestic Revolving
Obligations, first, to the Domestic Revolving Loans and, second, to Cash Collateralize outstanding Domestic Letters of Credit. 
  

 48 

 2.07 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. 
  
 (a) Voluntary Reductions. The Domestic Revolving Commitments and/or
the Foreign Revolving Commitments hereunder may be permanently reduced in whole or in part by notice from the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent; provided that (i) any such notice thereof must be received by 11:00 a.m. at least five
Business Days prior to the date of reduction or termination and any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of €8.6 million and integral multiples of €860,000 in excess thereof; (ii) neither the Domestic Revolving
Commitments nor the Foreign Revolving Commitments may be reduced to an amount less than the Loan Obligations then outstanding thereunder, respectively, and (iii) if, after giving effect to any reduction the Domestic Revolving Commitments and/or
the Foreign Revolving Commitments, the Domestic L/C Sublimit, any Designated Borrower Limit or the Domestic Swingline Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Domestic Revolving Commitments or the Foreign Revolving Commitments, as applicable, such
sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. The Administrative Agent will give prompt notice to the Lenders of any such reduction in the Domestic Revolving Commitments and/or the Foreign Revolving Commitments. Any reduction
of the Domestic Revolving Commitments and/or the Foreign Revolving Commitments shall be applied to the Domestic Revolving Commitment and/or Foreign Revolving Commitment of each Lender according to its Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage or
Foreign Revolving Commitment Percentage, as applicable. All commitment or other fees accrued with respect thereto through the effective date of any termination of the Domestic Revolving Commitments and/or the Foreign Revolving Commitments shall be
paid on the effective date of such termination. 
  
 2.08
Interest. 
  
 (a) Subject to the provisions of
subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period
plus the Applicable Percentage plus (in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan of any Lender which is lent from a Lending Office in the United Kingdom or a Participating Member State) the Mandatory Cost; (ii) each Loan that is a
Base Rate 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 Percentage; and (iii) each Domestic Swingline Loan shall
bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Swingline 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 Law. 
  
 (ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan)
payable by the Borrowers under any Credit 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 Law. 
  
 (iii) Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, the Borrowers shall at the request of the Required
Lenders, 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 Law. 
  

 49 

 (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. 
  
 2.09 Fees. 
  
 (a)
Commitment Fee. The Company will pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Percentage of the actual daily amount by which the
Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount shall exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Obligations (other than Domestic Swingline Obligations). The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Commitment Period, including at any time during
which one or more of the conditions in Article V is not met, shall be payable in Euro and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the
first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Revolving Termination Date. The Commitment Fee will be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Percentage during any quarter, the actual daily amount
shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Percentage separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Percentage was in effect. For purposes hereof, Domestic Swingline Loans will not be counted toward or be considered as
usage under the Aggregate Revolving Commitments. 
  
 (b) Fees
with respect to Domestic Letter of Credit. 
  
 (i) Domestic Letter of Credit Fee. In consideration of the issuance of Domestic Letters of Credit, the Domestic Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in U.S. Dollars a fee (the
“Domestic Letter of Credit Fee”) on such Domestic Revolving Lender’s Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Euro Equivalent of the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each such Domestic Letter of
Credit computed at a per annum rate for each day from the date of issuance to the date of expiration equal to the Applicable Percentage. The Domestic Letter of Credit Fee shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears, and shall be due and
payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Domestic Letter of Credit, on the Domestic L/C Expiration Date and thereafter on
demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Percentage during any quarter, the daily maximum amount of each Domestic Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Percentage separately for each period during such quarter
that such Applicable Percentage was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Domestic Revolving Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Domestic Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue
at the Default Rate. 
  
 (ii) Domestic Letter
of Credit Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to Domestic L/C Issuer. The Domestic Borrower shall pay directly to the Domestic L/C Issuer for its own account, in U.S. Dollars, a fronting fee with respect to each Domestic
Letter of Credit at the rate and at the times specified in the Administrative Agent’s Fee Letter or as otherwise agreed between the Domestic Borrower and the Domestic L/C Issuer. In addition, the Domestic Borrower shall pay directly to
each Domestic L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the Domestic L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to 

  

 50 

 
time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 
  
 (c) Other Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the
Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts, in U.S. Dollars, 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. 
  
 2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees.

  
 (a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when
the Base Rate is determined by Bank of America’s prime 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), or, in the case of interest in respect of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to
which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. 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 2.11(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. 
  
 (b) Effective Global Rate. To comply with the provisions of Articles L313-4 and L313-5 of the French Monetary and Financial Code, the Borrowers and the Lenders declare that the effective global rate for each of
the Loans cannot be calculated for the total duration of this Credit Agreement, primarily because of the floating rate of interest and adjustable margin applicable to the Loans and the relevant Borrower’s selection of the duration of each
Interest Period. However, an example of the effective global rate calculation substantially in the form set out in Schedule 2.10 (a “TEG Letter”) shall be provided to each Borrower incorporated in France by the Administrative
Agent as of the date of this Credit Agreement and on the date on which a Borrower incorporated in France accedes to this Credit Agreement. 
  
 2.11 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. 
  
 (a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without condition or deduction for any
counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in Euro or an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be
made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in U.S. Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified
herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in Euro or an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account
of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Euro or such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the
dates specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Credit Agreement, with respect to Domestic Revolving Obligations, be made in the Administrative
Agent’s Office with respect to Credit Extensions in U.S. Dollars and, with respect to Foreign Revolving Obligations, the Administrative Agent’s Office with respect to Credit Extensions in Euro and Alternative Currencies. If, for any
reason, the Borrowers are prohibited by any law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, the 

  

 51 

 
Borrowers shall make such payment in Euro in the Euro Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly
distribute to each Lender its pro rata share of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent (i) after 2:00 p.m., in the case of payments in U.S.
Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in Euro or an Alternative Currency (other than U.S. Dollars), shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and
any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Subject to the definition of “Interest Period”, if any payment to be made by the Borrowers 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 Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such
Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a 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 Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made
its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with
interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers 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 Overnight
Rate and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrowers 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 Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall
constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

  
 (ii) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions
by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Domestic L/C Issuer hereunder
that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Domestic L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Domestic L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith
on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer, in Same Day 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 Overnight Rate. 
  
 A notice of the Administrative
Agent to any Lender or the Borrowers with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
  

 52 

 (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 Borrowers by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable
Credit Extension set forth in Article V 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) Obligation of the Lenders Several. The obligations
of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Domestic Letters of Credit and Domestic Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 11.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any
Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 11.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 11.04(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. 
  
 (f) Allocation of Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by or are available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of
principal, Domestic L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward costs and expenses (including all reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any law firm or other counsel and
amounts payable under Article III) incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, (ii) second, toward repayment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the
amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (iii) third, toward repayment of principal, Domestic L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and
Domestic L/C Borrowings then due to such parties. 
  
 2.12
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 Loans made by it, or the participations in Domestic L/C Obligations or in Domestic Swingline Loans held by
it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations 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 Loans and subparticipations in Domestic L/C Obligations and Domestic Swingline Loans of the other
Lenders, if such Lender is a Domestic Revolving Lender, or make such other adjustments among the group of Domestic Revolving Lenders or Foreign Revolving Lenders, as applicable, or as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments
shall be shared by the Domestic Revolving Lenders or Foreign Revolving Lenders, as applicable, ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them,
provided that: 
  
 (1) 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 
  

 53 

 (2) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any
payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Credit Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or
subparticipations in Domestic L/C Obligations or Domestic Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). 
  
 Each Credit Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do
so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Credit Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a
direct creditor of such Credit Party in the amount of such participation. 
  
 2.13 Evidence of Debt. 
  
 (a) 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 Borrowers 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 Borrowers 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 Borrowers
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Note for such Lender, 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. 
  
 (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the
purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Domestic Letters of Credit and Domestic Swingline Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any
Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 
  
 2.14 Designated Borrowers. 
  
 (a) Effective as of the date hereof, each Subsidiary set forth on Schedule 2.14 shall be a “Designated Borrower” hereunder and may
receive Loans for its account on the terms and conditions set forth in this Credit Agreement. 
  
 (b) The Company may request that any of its Foreign Subsidiaries (each, an “Applicant Borrower”) be designated a Designated Borrower by delivery of a written request to the Administrative Agent,
together with an executed copy of the Borrower Joinder Agreement, including the Designated Borrower Limit requested for such Applicant Borrower. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such request and will provide the
Lenders with a copy of such Borrower Joinder Agreement. Designation of any Applicant Borrower as a Designated Borrower and approval of its Designated Borrowing Limit is subject to (i) the prior consent of the Lenders; (ii) delivery of each
executed promissory note as may be requested by any Foreign Revolving Lender in connection therewith; and (iii) delivery of supporting resolutions, articles of incorporation and bylaws (or their equivalents), incumbency certificates, opinions
of counsel and such other items as the Administrative Agent and the 

  

 54 

 
Required Lenders may request. The designation of an Applicant Borrower as a Designated Borrower shall be effective ten Business Days after (1) receipt
by the Administrative Agent of the consent of the Required Lenders and (2) receipt by the Administrative Agent of each of the items required pursuant to clauses (ii) and (iii) herein. Such Designated Borrower shall
thereupon become a Designated Borrower and a Credit Party hereunder and shall be (1) entitled to all rights and benefits of a Designated Borrower hereunder and under each of the Credit Documents and (2) subject to all obligations of a
Designated Borrower hereunder and under the Credit Documents. 
  
 (c) The Company may from time to time (but not more frequently than once per fiscal quarter of the Company), with consent of the Required Lenders, increase the Designated Borrower Limit with respect to any Designated Borrower;
provided, however, that the Designated Borrower Limit shall not exceed the Aggregate Foreign Revolving Committed Amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Foreign Revolving Lenders of any such increase of a Designated
Borrower’s Designated Borrower Limit. 
  
 (d) The Company may
from time to time, upon not less than 15 Business Days’ notice from the Foreign Borrowers to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), terminate a Designated
Borrower’s status as such, provided that there are no outstanding Foreign Revolving Loans payable by such Designated Borrower, or other amounts payable by such Designated Borrower on account of any Foreign Revolving Loans made to it, as
of the effective date of such termination. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such termination of a Designated Borrower’s status. 
  
 2.15 Several and Not Joint Liability of Foreign Borrower. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the obligations
of the Foreign Borrowers under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be several, and not joint, in nature (except as provided in Article IV) and shall be limited to the Foreign Obligations, provided that the
Foreign Borrowers expressly waive any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Foreign Obligations, or any of their officers, agents or representatives, exhaust any right, power or remedy or first proceed under any of the
Credit Documents or against any other Credit Party, any other Person or any Collateral with respect to the Foreign Obligations. 
  
 ARTICLE III 
  
 OTHER PROVISIONS RELATING TO CREDIT FACILITIES 
  
 3.01 Taxes. 
  
 (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Credit Parties hereunder or under any other Credit
Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Credit Parties shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any
Other Taxes) other than as a result of the Lender’s failure to comply with this Section 3.01 or with Section 3.06, from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making
all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deductions been made, (ii) the Credit Parties shall make such 

  

 55 

 
deductions and (iii) the Credit Parties shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law. 
  
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Credit Parties.
Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Credit Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (c) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the
Domestic L/C Issuer, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this
Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  
 (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower
to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty
to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall deliver to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In
addition, any Lender, if requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable a Borrower or the
Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. 
  
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender shall
deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time
thereafter upon the request of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable: 
  
 (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an
income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, 
  
 (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, 
  
 (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Internal
Revenue Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the 

  

 56 

 
Internal Revenue Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code,
or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or 
  
 (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis
for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit a Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction
required to be made. 
  
 Without limiting the obligations of the
Lenders set forth above regarding delivery of certain forms and documents to establish each Lender’s status for U.S. withholding tax purposes, each Lender agrees promptly to deliver to the Administrative Agent or any Borrower, as the
Administrative Agent or any Borrower shall reasonably request, on or prior to the Closing Date, and in a timely fashion thereafter, such other documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the Laws of any other jurisdiction,
duly executed and completed by such Lender, as are required under such Laws to confirm such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender
outside of the U.S. by such Borrower pursuant to this Credit Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in such other jurisdiction. Each Lender shall promptly (i) notify the Administrative Agent
of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any such claimed exemption or reduction, and (ii) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be
reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any such jurisdiction that a Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender.
Additionally, a Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall reasonably request, on or prior to the Closing Date, and in a timely fashion thereafter, such documents and
forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the Laws of any jurisdiction, duly executed and completed by such Borrower, as are required to be furnished by such Lender or the Administrative Agent under such Laws in connection with any
payment by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of Taxes or Other Taxes, or otherwise in connection with the Credit Documents, with respect to such jurisdiction. 
  
 (f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer determines, in
its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the
applicable Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided
that each Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental
Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not
be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person. 

 

 57 

 (g) Stamp Taxes. Each Credit Party shall pay within five Business Days of demand, and indemnify
each Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer against, any cost, loss or liability that any Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer incurs in relation to all stamp duty, stamp duty land tax, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Credit
Document (other than resulting from any transfer or sub-participation by a Lender or other Domestic L/C Issuer); provided that such Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer shall make reasonable efforts to minimize the impact of such stamp duty, stamp
duty land tax, registration or other similar Taxes arising under the Credit Documents. 
  
 (h) Value Added Tax. 
  
 (i) All amounts set out, or expressed to be payable under any Credit Document by any Participant to any Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer which (in whole or in part) constitute consideration for VAT purposes shall be
deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (iii) below, if VAT is chargeable on any supply made by a Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer to any Participant under a Credit
Document, that Participant shall pay to the Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer shall promptly provide an
appropriate VAT invoice to such Participant). Where, for the purpose of the service supply giving rise to the payment liable to VAT, a Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer belongs to a member state of the European Union different from that where the
Participant belongs, that Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer shall provide to the relevant Participant before the payment is made, its value added tax identification number. 
  
 (ii) If VAT is chargeable on any supply made by any Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer (the
“Supplier”) to any other Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer (the “Recipient”) under a Credit Document, and any Participant (the “Relevant Participant”) is required by the terms of any Credit Document
to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Participant shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same
time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT. The Recipient will promptly pay to the Relevant Participant an amount equal to any credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority which it reasonably determines relates to
the VAT chargeable on that supply. 
  
 (iii)
Where a Credit Document requires any Participant to reimburse a Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer for any costs or expenses, that Participant shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer against all VAT incurred by the
Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that the Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer for VAT purposes is entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of the VAT. 
  
 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 applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurocurrency Rate Loans (whether denominated in Euro or an Alternative Currency), or to determine or charge interest
rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of Euro or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market,
then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the applicable Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate
Loans in U.S. Dollars, to convert Loans that are Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall 

  

 58 

 
be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no
longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable and such Loans are denominated in U.S. Dollars, convert all Eurocurrency Rate
Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to
maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 
  
 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. 
  
 If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a
conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) deposits (whether in Euro or an Alternative Currency) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of
such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan (whether denominated in Euro or an Alternative
Currency), or (c) the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the
Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended until the Administrative
Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency
or currencies or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Loans that are Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 
  
 3.04 Increased Cost; Capital Adequacy. 
  
 (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 (A) any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurocurrency
Rate) and (B) the requirements of the Bank of England and the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank reflected in the Mandatory Cost, other than as set forth below) or the Domestic L/C Issuer; 
  
 (ii) subject any Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer to any
tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Credit Agreement, any Domestic Letter of Credit, any participation in a Domestic Letter of Credit or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or
the Domestic L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer);

  
 (iii) the Mandatory Cost, as calculated
hereunder, does not represent the cost to any Lender of complying with the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank in relation to its making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate
Loans; or 
  

 59 

 (iv) impose on any Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other
condition, cost or expense affecting this Credit Agreement or Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Domestic Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
  
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Rate Loan (or
of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Domestic Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to
issue any Domestic Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or Domestic L/C
Issuer, the applicable Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or
reduction suffered. 
  
 (b) Capital Requirements. If any
Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Domestic L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding
capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Domestic L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Domestic L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a
consequence of this Credit Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Domestic Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Domestic Letters of Credit issued by the Domestic L/C Issuer, to a level below
that which such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the Domestic L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Domestic L/C Issuer’s
policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Domestic L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer, as the case may
be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the Domestic L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
  
 (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the
Domestic L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and
delivered to the applicable Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days
after receipt thereof. 
  
 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Domestic L/C Issuer’s right to demand such
compensation, provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months
prior to the date that such Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the applicable Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Domestic L/C Issuer’s
intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof). 
  

 60 

 3.05 Compensation for Losses. 
  
 Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from
time to time, the Borrowers 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 Borrowers (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 Borrowers; 
  
 (c) any failure by the Borrowers to make payment of any Loan (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its
scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency; or 
  
 (d) any assignment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 11.13; 
  
 including any loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses 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 or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract. The
Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. 
  
 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have
funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Base Rate used in determining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount
and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 
  
 3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 
  
 (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or any Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable
efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or
assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, 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 Borrowers hereby agree 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 any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for 

  

 61 

 
the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, the Borrowers may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 11.13.

  
 3.07 Survival Losses. 
  
 All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Article III
shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations and Foreign Obligations hereunder. 
  
 ARTICLE IV 
  
 GUARANTY 
  
 4.01 The Guaranty. 
  
 (a) Each of the
Domestic Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantees to the Administrative Agent and each of the holders of the Obligations as hereinafter provided, as primary obligor and not as surety, the prompt payment of the Obligations in full when due
(whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. The Domestic Guarantors hereby further agree that if any of the Obligations
are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise), the Domestic Guarantors will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same, without any
demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as
a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
  
 (b) Each of the Foreign Guarantors hereby severally guarantees to the Administrative Agent and each of the holders of the Foreign Obligations as
hereinafter provided, as primary obligor and not as surety, the prompt payment of the Foreign Obligations in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise)
strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. Each of the Foreign Guarantors hereby further agrees that if any of such obligations are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory
cash collateralization or otherwise), the Foreign Guarantors will, severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of such obligations, the same
will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any
other of the Credit Documents or Swap Contracts, the obligations of each Guarantor (in its capacity as such) under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would
not render such obligations subject to avoidance under the Debtor Relief Laws or any comparable provisions of any applicable Law. 
  
 4.02 Obligations Unconditional. 
  
 (a) The obligations of the Domestic Guarantors under Section 4.01 are joint and several, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the
value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Credit Documents or other documents relating to the Obligations, or any substitution, compromise, release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any
of the Obligations, and, to the 

  

 62 

 
fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge
or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 4.02 that the obligations of the Domestic Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Each Domestic Guarantor agrees
that such Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrowers or any other Guarantor for amounts paid under this Article IV until such time as the Obligations have been irrevocably
paid in full and the commitments relating thereto have expired or terminated. 
  
 (b) The obligations of the Foreign Guarantors under Section 4.01 are several, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Credit
Documents or other documents relating to the Foreign Obligations, or any substitution, compromise, release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Foreign Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 4.02 that the obligations of the
Foreign Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Each of the Foreign Guarantors agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the
Foreign Borrowers or any other Foreign Guarantor for amounts paid under this Article IV until such time as the Foreign Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full and the commitments relating thereto have expired or terminated.

  
 (c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
subsections (a) and (b), it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute
and unconditional as described above: 
  
 (i) at
any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; 
  
 (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of
any of the Credit Documents, or other documents relating to the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein shall be done or omitted; 
  

(iii) the maturity of any of the Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended
in any respect, or any right under any of the Credit Documents or any other documents relating to the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Obligations or any
security therefor shall be released, impaired or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; 
  
 (iv) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Obligations as security for any of the Obligations
shall fail to attach or be perfected; or 
  
 (v)
any of the Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including for the benefit of any creditor of any Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including any creditor of any Guarantor). 
  
 (d) With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Guarantor hereby
expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest, notice of acceptance of the guaranty given hereby and of extensions of credit that may constitute obligations guaranteed hereby, notices of amendments, waivers, consents and
supplements to the Credit Documents and other documents relating to the Obligations, or the compromise, release or exchange of collateral or security, and all other notices whatsoever, and any 

  

 63 

 
requirement that the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Obligations exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the
Credit Documents or any other documents relating to the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument referred to therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations. 
  
 4.03 Reinstatement. 
  
 Neither the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder nor any remedy for the
enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release or limitation of the liability of the Borrowers, by reason of any Borrower’s bankruptcy or insolvency
or by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of all or any portion of the Obligations. In addition: 
  
 (a) The obligations of each Domestic Guarantor under this Article IV shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent
that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, and each
Domestic Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each holder of the Obligations on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative
Agent or such holder of the Obligations in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or
similar payment under any Debtor Relief Law. 
  
 (b) The obligations of each Foreign Guarantor under this Article IV shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Foreign Obligations is
rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Foreign Obligations, whether as a result of any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, and each of the Foreign Guarantors agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each
holder of the Foreign Obligations on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such holder of the Obligations in connection with such rescission
or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any Debtor Relief Law. 
  
 4.04 Certain Waivers. 
  
 Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (a) the guaranty given
hereby may be enforced without the necessity of resorting to or otherwise exhausting remedies in respect of any other security or collateral interests, and without the necessity at any time of having to take recourse against the Borrowers hereunder

 (h) Environmental. 
  
 (i) Upon the reasonable written request of the Administrative Agent following the occurrence of any event or

any material respect, the Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Administrative Agent, at the Company’s expense, a report of an environmental assessment of reasonable scope, form and depth, (including, where appropriate, invasive
soil or groundwater sampling) by a consultant reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as to the nature and extent of the presence of any Materials of Environmental Concern on any Subject Properties and as to the compliance by any member of
the Consolidated Group with Environmental Laws at such Subject Properties. If the Company fails to deliver such an environmental report within seventy-five days after receipt of such written request then the Administrative Agent may arrange for

 Documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a) or (b) or Section 7.01(e) (to the extent any such documents are included in materials otherwise filed with
the SEC) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date (i) on which the Company posts such documents, or provides a link thereto on the Company’s website on the internet at the
website address listed on Schedule 11.02; or (ii) on which such documents are posted on the Company’s behalf on IntraLinks/IntraAgency or another relevant website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have
access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent); provided that: (i) the Company shall deliver paper copies of such documents to the Administrative Agent or any Lender that requests the
Company to deliver such paper copies until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and (ii) the Company shall notify (which may be by facsimile or electronic mail) the
Administrative Agent and each Lender of the posting of any such documents and provide to the 

  

 78 

 
Administrative Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in every
instance the Company shall be required to provide paper copies of the Compliance Certificates required by Section 7.01(c) to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders. Except for such Compliance Certificates, the
Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery or to maintain copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall have no responsibility to monitor compliance by the Company with any such request for delivery,
and each Lender shall be solely responsible for requesting delivery to it or maintaining its copies of such documents. 
  
 The Credit Parties hereby acknowledge that the Administrative Agent will make available to the Lenders and the Domestic L/C Issuer materials and/or
information provided by or on behalf of the Credit Parties hereunder (collectively, the “Credit Party Materials”) by posting the Credit Party Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the
“Platform”) and that certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Credit Parties or their securities) (each, a
“Public Lender”). The Credit Parties hereby agree that (1) all Credit Party Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” (which, at a minimum, shall mean
that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof); (2) by marking the Credit Party Materials “PUBLIC,” the Credit Parties shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
to treat such Credit Party Materials as either publicly available information or not material information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Credit Parties or their securities for purposes of United States federal and
state securities laws; (3) all Credit Party Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public Investor”; and (4) the Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to treat any Credit Party Materials that are not designated “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public”.

 The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with

 The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay and
discharge (a) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it, or upon its income or profits, or upon any of its properties, before they shall become delinquent, (b) all lawful claims (including claims for labor,
materials and supplies) which, if unpaid, might give rise to a Lien upon any of its properties, and (c) except as prohibited hereunder, all of its other Indebtedness as it shall become due; provided, however, that no member 

  

 79 

 
of the Consolidated Group shall be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy, claim or Indebtedness that is being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings for which adequate reserves determined in accordance with GAAP have been established, unless the failure to make any such payment (i) could give rise to an immediate right to foreclose on a Lien securing such amounts or
(ii) could have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 7.06
Insurance. 
  
 The Company will, and will cause each
of its Subsidiaries to, at all times maintain in full force and effect insurance (including workers’ compensation insurance, liability insurance, casualty insurance and business interruption insurance) in such amounts, covering such risks and
liabilities and with such deductibles or self-insurance retentions as are in accordance with normal industry practice. The present insurance coverage of the members of the Consolidated Group is outlined as to carrier, policy number, expiration date,
type and amount on Schedule 7.06. 
  
 7.07
Maintenance of Property. 
  
 The Company will, and
will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain and preserve its properties and equipment material to the conduct of its business in good repair, working order and condition, normal wear and tear and casualty and condemnation excepted, and will
make, or cause to be made, in such properties and equipment from time to time all repairs, renewals, replacements, extensions, additions, betterments and improvements thereto as may be needed or proper, to the extent and in the manner customary for
companies in similar businesses. 
  
 7.08 Performance of
Obligations. 
  
 Except as would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, perform in all material respects all of its obligations under the terms of all material agreements, indentures, mortgages, security agreements
and other debt instruments to which it is a party or by which it is bound. 
  
 7.09 Use of Proceeds. 
  
 The Company will use the proceeds of Extensions of Credit solely for the purposes set forth in Section 6.15. 
  
 7.10 Audits/Inspections. 
  
 Upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours (or, following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, at any time
without notice), the Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit representatives appointed by the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation, independent accountants, agents, attorneys, and appraisers to visit and
inspect its property, including its books and records, its accounts receivable and inventory, its facilities and its other business assets, and to make photocopies or photographs thereof and to write down and record any information such
representative obtains and shall permit the Administrative Agent or its representatives to investigate and verify the accuracy of information provided to the Lenders and to discuss all such matters with the officers, employees and representatives of

 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
  
 10.01 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent.

  
 (a) Each of the Lenders and the Domestic L/C Issuer
hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as

  

 90 

 
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 Domestic L/C Issuer, and the Credit Parties shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 
  
 10.02 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, 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.

  
 10.03 Exculpatory Provisions. 
  
 The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except
those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents. 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 Credit 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 Credit 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 Credit Document or applicable law; and 
  
 (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit 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 11.01 and 9.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 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 by the Borrower, a Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer. 
  
 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 Credit Agreement or any other Credit 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 

  

 91 

 
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 Administrative Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein,
other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 10.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 
  
 The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, 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, or the issuance of a Domestic Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is
satisfactory to such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Domestic L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Domestic Letter of
Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the
advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
  
 10.05
Delegation of Duties. 
  
 The Administrative Agent may
perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit 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. 
  
 10.06 Resignation of the Administrative Agent. 
  
 The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to
the Lenders, the Domestic L/C Issuer 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, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Domestic L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above;
provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and
(1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the
Lenders or the Domestic L/C Issuer under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such 

  

 92 

 
time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) 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 and the Domestic L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. 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 retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit 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 Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Credit Documents,
the provisions of this Article and Section 11.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken
by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
  
 10.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. 
  
 Each Lender and the Domestic L/C Issuer 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 Credit Agreement. Each Lender and the Domestic L/C Issuer 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 Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
  
 10.08 No Other Duties. 
  
 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent, Mandated Lead Arrangers
or Joint Book Managers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender
or the Domestic L/C Issuer hereunder.

Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. 
  
 In
case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the
principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation 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, Domestic L/C Obligations and all other Obligations (other than obligations under Swap
Contracts or Treasury Management Agreements to which the Administrative Agent is not a party) 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, the Domestic L/C
Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, 

  

 93 

 
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Domestic L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all
other amounts due the Lenders, the Domestic L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 11.04) 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 and the Domestic L/C Issuer 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 and the Domestic L/C Issuer, 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 2.09 and 11.04. 
  
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or
the Domestic L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such
proceeding. 
  
 10.10 Guaranty Matters. 

 
 The Lenders and the Domestic L/C Issuer irrevocably authorize the
Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Guarantor from its obligations under any Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.

Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrowers or any other Credit Party, any Lender, the Domestic L/C Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or
punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
  
 11.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 
  
 No failure by any Lender, the Domestic L/C Issuer, the Domestic Swingline
Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or
privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies,
powers and privileges provided by law. 
  
 11.04 Expenses;
Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 
  
 (a) Costs and
Expenses. The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of separate counsel for the Administrative Agent),

of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Domestic L/C Issuer in connection with the issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension of any Domestic Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer (including the

Credit Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Domestic Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or
negotiations in respect of such Loans or Domestic Letters of Credit. 
  
 (b) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the Domestic L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such
Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each 

  

 98 

 
Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel
for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrowers or any other Credit Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this
Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, (ii) any Loan or Domestic Letter

strictly comply with the terms of such Domestic Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, or any
Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any
other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrowers or any other Credit Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that (i) no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any claim
caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or for any loss asserted against it by another Indemnitee; (ii) the Borrowers shall have the right to defend an Indemnitee against indemnified liabilities with counsel of its choice
reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee so long as the Borrowers notify the Indemnitee in writing within fifteen days after such Indemnitee has given notice of the indemnified liability and such Borrower conducts the defense of the indemnified
liability actively and diligently; provided, however, that an Indemnitee will have the right to employ its own counsel, for the account of the Indemnitee, or, for the account of the Borrowers if (A) the use of counsel chosen by the
Borrowers to represent such Indemnitee would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (B) the actual or potential defendants in any such action include both the Borrowers and such Indemnitee and such Indemnitee shall have reasonably
concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Borrowers, (C) the Borrowers shall not have employed counsel within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of
such action or (D) the Borrowers shall authorize such Indemnitee to employ separate counsel at the Borrowers’ expense; (iii) no Indemnitee shall consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the
indemnified liability without the prior written consent of the Borrowers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (iv) the Indemnitees can assume their defense if the Borrowers are released from their indemnification obligations
hereunder. So long as the Borrowers are conducting the defense of an indemnified liability in accordance with the conditions set forth in the previous sentence, (i) the Indemnitee may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and
participate in the defense of the indemnified liability and (ii) the Borrowers will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the indemnified liability unless written agreement is obtained releasing
the Indemnitee from all liability thereunder. 
  
 (c)
Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any
sub-agent thereof), the Domestic L/C Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Domestic L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be,
such Lender’s Aggregate Commitment Percentage or, in the case of Domestic L/C Obligations, Domestic Revolving Commitment Percentage (determined in each case as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought)
of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the
Domestic L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), or 

  

 99 

 
the Domestic L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions
of Section 2.11(d). 
  
 (d) Waiver of Consequential
Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as
opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any
Loan or Domestic Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials
distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
  
 (e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not
later than ten Business Days after demand therefor. 
  
 (f)
Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other
obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Document. 
  
 11.05 Payments Set Aside. 
  
 To the
extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, the Domestic L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the Domestic L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or
the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Domestic L/C Issuer or
such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and the Domestic L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent on demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum
equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders and the Domestic L/C Issuer under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the
payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement. 
  
 11.06 Successors and Assigns. 
  
 (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby,
except that neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the
provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of 

  

 100 

 
this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Credit Agreement, expressed or
implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent
expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Domestic L/C Issuer and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Credit Agreement. 
  
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one
or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in Domestic L/C
Obligations and in Domestic Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that 
  
 (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time
owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, 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 US$5 million, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, the Borrowers 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) each assignment, partial or complete, shall be made as
an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, and shall be pro rata with respect to its Domestic Revolving Commitment
and Foreign Revolving Commitment; provided that, that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of Domestic Swingline Loans; 
  
 (iii) any assignment of a Domestic Revolving Commitment must be approved by the Administrative Agent and, with respect to any assignment
of the Domestic Revolving Commitments and Domestic Revolving Obligations, the Domestic L/C Issuer and the Domestic Swingline Lender, unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether or not the proposed assignee would
otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee); 
  
 (iv) 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, if any, required as set forth on Schedule 11.06,
and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
  
 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 Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Credit Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under
this Credit 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 Credit Agreement (and, in the 

  

 101 

 
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit 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. Upon
request, the Borrowers (at their expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated
for purposes of this Credit 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 Borrowers, shall maintain
at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and Domestic
L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, 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 Credit Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by each of the
Borrowers and the Domestic L/C Issuer at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Credit Documents is pending, any
Lender wishing to consult with other Lenders in connection therewith may request and receive from the Administrative Agent a copy of the Register. 
  
 (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of the Borrower, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person
or the Borrowers or any Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Domestic L/C Obligations and/or Domestic Swingline Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Credit 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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Domestic L/C Issuer shall continue to
deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. 
  
 Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce
this Credit Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit 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. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, each of the Borrowers 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. To the extent
permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender.

  
 (e) Limitation upon Participant Rights. A Participant
shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Borrowers are

  

 102 

 
notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with
Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender. 
  
 (f)
Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Credit Agreement (including under its Note(s), 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. 
  
 (g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The
words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”, and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be
of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
  
 (h) Dutch Banking Law Requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in clauses
(a) through (g) above, if at the time of any assignment or participation of any rights and/or obligations under any Loan to Millipore Ireland it is a requirement under the Dutch Banking Act or the regulations or policies
promulgated thereunder that any assignee or participant of such rights and obligations is a Professional Market Party, (a) no such assignment of participation may be made other than to a Person who at the date thereof is a Professional Market
Party; and (b) each such assignee or participant explicitly declares and represents at the time of any such assignment or participation that it (i) is a Professional Market Party, (ii) is aware that it does not benefit from creditor
protection under the Dutch Banking Act and (iii) has made its own appraisal of Millipore Ireland. 
  
 (i) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Credit Agreement agree that any transfer effected in accordance with this Section 11.06
shall constitute a novation within the meaning of Articles 1271 et seq. of the French Civil Code; provided that, notwithstanding any such novation, all the rights (including in relation to Lien) of the parties to this Credit Agreement
(other than the Credit Parties) against the Credit Parties shall be maintained in accordance with Article 1278 of the French Civil Code. 
  
 11.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. 
  
 Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Domestic L/C Issuer agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the
Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood
that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have
jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal
process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document or the
enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in,
any of its rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations, (g) with the consent of
the Borrowers or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a 

  

 103 

 
breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Domestic L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates
on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers. 
  
 For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers or any Subsidiary relating to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such
information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the
Borrowers or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to
have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
  
 Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Domestic L/C Issuer
acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, 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 federal and state securities Laws. 
  
 11.08 Right of Setoff. 
  
 If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Domestic L/C Issuer 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, the Domestic L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Credit Party against any and all
of the obligations of such Borrower or such Credit Party now or hereafter existing under this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document to such Lender or the Domestic L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the Domestic L/C
Issuer shall have made any demand under this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such obligations of the Borrowers or such Credit Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the
Domestic L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, the Domestic L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Domestic L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the Domestic L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Borrowers 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. 
  
 11.09 Interest Rate Limitation. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Credit Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Credit 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 Borrowers. 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 

  

 104 

 
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. 
  
 11.10
Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. 
  
 This
Credit 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 Credit Agreement
and the other Credit 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 5.01, this Credit 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 Credit Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Credit Agreement. 

 
 11.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

  
 All representations and warranties made hereunder and in
any other Credit 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 or any Domestic Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. 

 
 11.12 Severability. 
  
 If any provision of this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents is
held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit 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. 
  
 11.13 Replacement of Lenders. 
  
 If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, (b) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender
or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, (c) a Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) does not consent to a proposed amendment, consent, change, waiver, discharge or
termination with respect to any Credit Document that has been approved by the Required Lenders, the Required Domestic Revolving Lenders or the Required Foreign Revolving Lenders, as appropriate, (including, without limitation by a failure to respond
in writing to a proposed amendment by the date and time specified by the Administrative Agent) as provided in Section 11.01 but requires unanimous consent of all Lenders or all Lenders of a particular class of loans, or (d) any
Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the respective 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 11.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and the 

  

 105 

 
related Credit Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment),
provided that: 
  
 (i) the respective
Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.06(b); 
  
 (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and, with respect to Domestic
Revolving Lenders, Domestic L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit 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 respective Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 
  
 (ii) 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; and 
  
 (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and 
  
 (v) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Lender’s failure to consent to a
proposed amendment, consent change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Credit Document, the applicable replacement bank or financial institution consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination; 
  
 (v) if at the time any assignment of any rights and/or
obligations under any Loan to Millipore Ireland it is a requirement under the Dutch Banking Act or the regulations or policies promulgated thereunder that any assignee of such rights and obligations is a Professional Market Party, then no such
assignment may be made other than to a Person who at the date thereof is Professional Market Party, and each such assignee explicitly declares and represents at the time of any such assignment or participation that (A) it is a Professional
Market Party, (B) it is aware that it does not benefit from creditor protection under the Dutch Banking Act; and (C) it has made its own appraisal of Millipore Ireland. 
  
 provided that the failure by such Non-Consenting Lender to execute and deliver an Assignment and
Assumption shall not impair the validity of the removal of such Non-Consenting Lender and the mandatory assignment of such Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitments and outstanding Loans and, with respect to the Domestic Revolving Lenders,
participations in L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 11.13 shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Non-Consenting Lender of an Assignment and Assumption. 
  
 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 respective Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
  
 11.14 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc.

 11.16 USA PATRIOT Act; Anti-Terrorism; OFAC Compliance. 
  
 (a) Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for
itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to
obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each
Borrower in accordance with the Act. Each Borrower shall promptly deliver to the requesting party any such information as may be reasonably requested from time to time by any Lender or the Administrative Agent in order for such party to be in
compliance with the Act. 
  
 (b) Anti-Terrorism Law. No
Credit Party and, to the knowledge of the Credit Parties, none of its Affiliates is in violation of any Law relating to terrorism or money laundering (“Anti-Terrorism Laws”), including Executive Order No. 13224 on Terrorist
Financing, effective September 24, 2001 (the “Executive Order”), and the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56. No Credit
Party and, to the knowledge of the Credit Parties, no Affiliate or broker or other agent of any Credit Party acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with the Loans is (i) a Person that is listed in the annex to, or is otherwise
subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order, (ii) a Person owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, any Person that is listed in the annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order, (iii) a
Person with which any Lender is prohibited from dealing or otherwise engaging in any transaction by any Anti-Terrorism Law, (iv) a Person that commits, threatens or conspires to commit or supports “terrorism” as defined in the
Executive Order or (v) a Person that is named as a “specially designated national and blocked person” on the most current list published by the U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) at its

in, or otherwise engages in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to the Executive Order and (iii) engages in or conspires to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of
evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law. No Credit Party shall directly or indirectly, (A) knowingly conduct any business or engage in making or receiving any contribution of
funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any Person described in paragraph (b) above, (B) knowingly deal in, or otherwise engage in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to the
Executive Order or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, (C) knowingly engage in or conspire to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any
Anti-Terrorism Law (and the Credit Parties shall deliver to the Lenders any certification or other evidence requested from time to time by any Lender in its reasonable discretion, confirming the Credit Parties’ compliance with this Section) or
(D) cause or permit any of the funds of such Credit Party that are used to repay the Loans to be derived from any unlawful activity with the result that the making of the Loans would be in violation of any Law 
  

 108 

 11.17 Dutch Banking Act. 
  
 For the purpose of allowing Millipore Ireland to comply with its obligations under the Dutch Banking Act and the regulations
and policies promulgated thereunder, each Lender on the date of this Agreement explicitly declares and represents that (a) it is a Professional Market Party, (b) it is aware that it does not benefit from creditor protection under the Dutch
Banking Act and (c) it has made its own appraisal of Millipore Ireland. 
  
 11.18 Judgment Currency. 
  
 If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Credit Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with
normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrowers in respect of any such sum due from it
to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with
the applicable provisions of this Credit Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment
Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the
Administrative Agent from the Borrowers in the Agreement Currency, the Borrowers agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against
such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrowers (or to any
other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law). 
  

 109

 Exhibit 10.1 
  
 UNIGENE DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN 
 FOR DRS. LEVY 
  
 On
December 14, 2005, the Board of Directors of Unigene Laboratories, Inc. (“Unigene”) approved the adoption of a non-qualified deferred compensation (“NQDC”) arrangement for Dr. Ronald and Dr. Warren Levy. Because
the IRS regulations regarding NQDC arrangements are in a state of flux, the terms of the NQDC arrangement will be finalized in 2006. However, the major features of the NQDC arrangement are as follows: 
  

	 	•	 	Contributions. 

  

	 	•	 	Unigene would agree to credit a book account with $25,000 per year on the January 1st of such year beginning on January 1, 2006 and ending on January 1, 2014 for each participant. 

  

	 	•	 	Unigene would not be obligated to actually fund an account. 

  

	 	•	 	The credits to the accounts would be made without regard to whether either participant remains employed by or is otherwise providing services to Unigene. 

 

	 	•	 	The credits to the accounts would be 100% vested. 

  

	 	•	 	No additional credits would be made to the accounts (including no contributions by either Dr. Levy). 

  

	 	•	 	Upon the death of a participant, any remaining contributions would be made to his account. 

  

	 	•	 	In the event of a “change in control” of Unigene, all remaining contributions shall be made to each participant’s account. 

  

	 	•	 	Earnings. Each participant would have the ability to direct the investments of the accounts among available investments (mutual funds, stocks, etc.). A third-party
administrator (such as, for example, the company’s 401(k) provider) could track the earnings and losses in each participant’s account. 

  

	 	•	 	Distributions. The entire value of the account (including earnings/losses) would be distributed as follows: 

  

	 	•	 	Upon attainment of age 75 – 25% of balance, upon attainment of age 76, 33.33% of remaining balance, upon attainment of age 77, 50% of remaining balance, and the remainder of
the balance upon attainment of age 78. 

  

	 	•	 	In the event of a participant’s death or disability, 50% of the participant’s account balance (or remaining balance if distributions have already begun) shall be
distributed as soon as practicable following, as applicable, his death to his beneficiary or his disability and the remainder distributed on the first anniversary, as applicable of his death to his beneficiary or disability.

  

	 	•	 	Distributions could not be otherwise deferred or accelerated. 

  

	 	•	 	Beneficiary. Each participant can designate one or more beneficiaries, which can be contingent beneficiaries and/or natural persons or trust. The designation shall be made on
a written form as designated by Unigene.
