COVENANTS
1.Consideration.
a.Severance.  The Company agrees to pay Employee severance in a lump sum payment amount equal to $84,307.48, less applicable withholding.  This payment will be made to Employee on the first regularly scheduled payroll date following the Effective Date.
b.Transition Services.  Commencing immediately following the Termination Date, Employee agrees to provide consulting services to the Company pursuant to the terms of the Consulting Agreement.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that there will be no break in Employee’s service to the Company between the Termination Date and Employee’s commencement of such consulting services; Employee will not cease to be a Service Provider (as such term is defined in the 2010 Plan) as a result of such transition; and for so long as Employee continues to provide Services pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, Employee will continue to vest in the equity incentive awards represented by the Stock Agreements.  As consideration for these services, the Company shall pay Employee, acting in his consulting capacity, compensation as set forth in the Consulting Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement or the Consulting Agreement pertaining to Employee’s anticipated role as a Consultant shall in any way be construed to constitute Employee as a continuing agent, officer, employee, or representative of the Company, and Employee shall perform the services under the Consulting Agreement solely as an independent contractor.  For purposes of this Agreement, the term during which the consulting services are provided is referred to as the “Consulting Term.”
2.    Bonus.  Employee shall be eligible to receive any bonuses for calendar year 2014 to which he would otherwise be entitled if he had remained an employee of the Company on December 31, 2014 and through the applicable bonus payment date with such bonus amounts (if any) to be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors in its sole discretion and pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Executive Incentive Bonus Plan and the goals and objectives previously established for the 2014 corporate performance period thereunder.  Any such bonuses, less applicable withholding, will be paid to Employee, in a form of payment determined in the sole discretion of the Company (including through payment of stock) on the same day that such bonuses are paid to other Company employees.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any bonus payment to which Employee may be entitled in accordance with this Section 2 shall be paid on or before March 15, 2015.
3.    Stock.  The Parties agree that for purposes of determining the number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock that Employee is entitled to purchase or receive from the Company pursuant to the Stock Agreements, Employee will continue to vest through the end of Consulting Term as described in the Consulting Agreement attached as Exhibit A.  Employee acknowledges that as of the Termination Date, Employee will have vested in the equity incentive awards subject to the Stock Agreements to the extent set forth in Appendix I attached hereto. Employee’s equity awards, including the exercise of Employee’s vested options, shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the 2010 Plan and the applicable Stock Agreements.

4.    Final Paycheck and Receipt of All Benefits.  On the Termination Date, the Company shall pay Employee all unpaid salary and accrued vacation due and owing for the period ending on the Termination Date.  In addition, the Company shall pay all expense reimbursements for which Employee has submitted evidence of reimbursable expense in accordance with the Company’s policy.  Employee acknowledges and represents that, other than the consideration and benefits set forth in this Agreement and the Consulting Agreement, the Company has paid or provided all salary, wages, bonuses, accrued vacation/paid time off, leave, housing allowances, relocation costs, interest, severance, outplacement costs, fees, reimbursable expenses, commissions, stock, stock options, vesting, and any and all other benefits and compensation due to Employee.
5.    Release of Claims.  Employee agrees that the foregoing consideration represents settlement in full of all outstanding obligations owed to Employee by the Company and its current and former officers, directors, employees, agents, investors, attorneys, shareholders, administrators, affiliates, benefit plans, plan administrators, insurers, divisions, and subsidiaries, and predecessor and successor corporations and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”).  Employee, on his own behalf and on behalf of his respective heirs, family members, executors, agents, and assigns, hereby and forever releases the Releasees from, and agrees not to sue concerning, or in any manner to institute, prosecute, or pursue, any claim, complaint, charge, duty, obligation, or cause of action relating to any matters of any kind, whether presently known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that Employee may possess against any of the Releasees arising from any omissions, acts, facts, or damages that have occurred up until and including the Effective Date of this Agreement, including, without limitation:
a.    any and all claims relating to or arising from Employee’s employment relationship with the Company and the termination of that relationship;
b.    any and all claims relating to, or arising from, Employee’s right to purchase, or actual purchase of shares of stock of the Company, including, without limitation, any claims for fraud, misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of duty under applicable state corporate law, and securities fraud under any state or federal law;
c.    any and all claims for wrongful discharge of employment; termination in violation of public policy; discrimination; harassment; retaliation; breach of contract, both express and implied; breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing, both express and implied; promissory estoppel; negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress; fraud; negligent or intentional misrepresentation; negligent or intentional interference with contract or prospective economic advantage; unfair business practices; defamation; libel; slander; negligence; personal injury; assault; battery; invasion of privacy; false imprisonment; conversion; and disability benefits;
d.    any and all claims for violation of any federal, state, or municipal statute, including, but not limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Equal Pay Act; the Fair Labor Standards Act, except as prohibited by law; the Fair Credit Reporting Act; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967; the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act; the Family and Medical Leave Act, except as prohibited by law; the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act; the California Family Rights Act; the California Labor Code, except as prohibited by law; the California Workers’ Compensation Act, except as prohibited by law; and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act;

Page 3 of 26

e.    any and all claims for violation of the federal or any state constitution;
f.    any and all claims arising out of any other laws and regulations relating to employment or employment discrimination;
g.    any claim for any loss, cost, damage, or expense arising out of any dispute over the non-withholding or other tax treatment of any of the proceeds received by Employee as a result of this Agreement; and
h.    any and all claims for attorneys’ fees and costs. Employee agrees that the release set forth in this section shall be and remain in effect in all respects as a complete general release as to the matters released.  This release does not extend to any obligations incurred under this Agreement. This release, and nothing in the Supplemental Release referenced in Section 8, shall be construed to extinguish future obligations of the Company pursuant to the Indemnification Agreement.  This release does not release claims that cannot be released as a matter of law, including, but not limited to, Employee’s right to file a charge with or participate in a charge by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or any other local, state, or federal administrative body or government agency that is authorized to enforce or administer laws related to employment, against the Company (with the understanding that any such filing or participation does not give Employee the right to recover any monetary damages against the Company; Employee’s release of claims herein bars Employee from recovering such monetary relief from the Company).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee acknowledges that any and all disputed wage claims that are released herein shall be subject to binding arbitration in accordance with Section 19, except as required by applicable law.  Employee represents that he has made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, complaint, charge, duty, obligation, demand, cause of action, or other matter waived or released by this Section.
6.    Acknowledgment of Waiver of Claims under ADEA.  Employee acknowledges that he is waiving and releasing any rights he may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), and that this waiver and release is knowing and voluntary.  Employee agrees that this waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA after the Effective Date of this Agreement.  Employee acknowledges that the consideration given for this waiver and release is in addition to anything of value to which Employee was already entitled.  Employee further acknowledges that he has been advised by this writing that: (a) he should consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement; (b) he has twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Agreement; (c) he has seven (7) days following his execution of this Agreement to revoke this Agreement; (d) this Agreement shall not be effective until after the revocation period has expired; and (e) nothing in this Agreement prevents or precludes Employee from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties, or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law.  In the event Employee signs this Agreement and returns it to the Company in less than the 21‐day period identified above, Employee hereby acknowledges that he has freely and voluntarily chosen to waive the time period allotted for considering this Agreement.  Employee acknowledges and understands that revocation must be accomplished by a written notification to the person executing this Agreement on the Company’s behalf that is received prior to the Effective Date.  The parties agree that changes, whether material or immaterial, do not restart the running of the 21‐day period.

7.    California Civil Code Section 1542.  Employee acknowledges that he has been advised to consult with legal counsel and is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, a statute that otherwise prohibits the release of unknown claims, which provides as follows:
A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.
Employee, being aware of said code section, agrees to expressly waive any rights he may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law principles of similar effect.
8.    Supplemental Release.  Upon termination of the Consulting Agreement and subject to the Company’s satisfaction of all material obligations pursuant to this Agreement and the Consulting Agreement, Employee agrees to execute the Supplemental Release attached hereto as Exhibit B (“Supplemental Release”).  Employee agrees that his failure to execute and return the Supplemental Release within five (5) business days of the termination of the Consulting Agreement shall entitle the Company to immediately recover and/or cease providing the consideration promised in the Consulting Agreement.
9.    No Pending or Future Lawsuits.  Employee represents that he has no lawsuits, claims, or actions pending in his name, or on behalf of any other person or entity, against the Company or any of the other Releasees.  Employee also represents that he does not intend to bring any claims on his own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity against the Company or any of the other Releasees.
10.    Application for Employment.  Employee understands and agrees that, as a condition of this Agreement, Employee shall not be entitled to any employment with the Company, and Employee hereby waives any right, or alleged right, of employment or re-employment with the Company.  
11.    Intentionally Left Blank.
12.    Trade Secrets and Confidential Information/Company Property.  Employee reaffirms and agrees to observe and abide by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, specifically including the provisions therein regarding nondisclosure of the Company’s trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information.  Employee’s signature below constitutes his certification under penalty of perjury that he has returned all property belonging to the Company.
13.    No Cooperation.  Employee agrees that he will not knowingly encourage, counsel, or assist any attorneys or their clients in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints by any third party against any of the Releasees, unless under a subpoena or other court order to do so or as related directly to the ADEA waiver in this Agreement.  Employee agrees both to notify the Company promptly upon receipt of any such subpoena or court order, and to furnish, within five (5) business days of its receipt, a copy of such subpoena or other court order.  If approached by anyone for counsel or assistance in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints against any of the Releasees, Employee shall state no more than that he cannot provide counsel or assistance.

Page 5 of 26

14.    Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees to refrain from any disparagement, defamation, libel, or slander of any of the Releasees, and agrees to refrain from any tortious interference with the contracts and relationships of any of the Releasees.  Employee shall direct any inquiries by potential future employers to the Company’s human resources department, which shall confirm only the Employee’s last position and dates of employment.  The Company agrees to refrain from any disparaging statements about Employee or his work history, job performance, competence, or character.  Employee understands that the Company’s obligations under this paragraph extend only to the Company’s current executive officers and members of its Board of Directors and only for so long as each officer or member is an employee or Director of the Company.
15.    Breach.  Employee acknowledges and agrees that any material breach of this Agreement, unless such breach constitutes a legal action by Employee challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of the waiver herein under the ADEA, or of any provision of the Confidentiality Agreement shall entitle the Company immediately to recover and/or cease providing the consideration provided to Employee under this Agreement, except as provided by law.
16.    No Admission of Liability.  Each Party understands and acknowledges that this Agreement constitutes a compromise and settlement of any and all actual or potential disputed claims by Employee.  No action taken by either Party hereto, either previously or in connection with this Agreement, shall be deemed or construed to be (a) an admission of the truth or falsity of any actual or potential claims or (b) an acknowledgment or admission by the Company of any fault or liability whatsoever to Employee or to any third party.
17.    Non-Solicitation.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Employee agrees that for a period of twelve (12) months immediately following the Effective Date of this Agreement, Employee shall not directly or indirectly solicit, induce, recruit or encourage any of the Company’s employees to leave their employment at the Company.  The provisions of this Section 17 shall supersede and replace the provisions of Section 7 of the Confidentiality Agreement (provided that all other terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue to have full force and effect in accordance with their terms).
18.    Costs.  The Parties shall each bear their own costs, attorneys’ fees, and other fees incurred in connection with the preparation of this Agreement.
19.    ARBITRATION.  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, THEIR INTERPRETATION, AND ANY OF THE MATTERS HEREIN RELEASED, SHALL BE SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION IN ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA BEFORE JUDICIAL ARBITRATION & MEDIATION SERVICES, INC. (“JAMS”), PURSUANT TO ITS EMPLOYMENT ARBITRATION RULES & PROCEDURES (“JAMS RULES”).  THE ARBITRATOR MAY GRANT INJUNCTIONS AND OTHER RELIEF IN SUCH DISPUTES.  THE ARBITRATOR SHALL ADMINISTER AND CONDUCT ANY ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH CALIFORNIA LAW, INCLUDING THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, AND THE ARBITRATOR SHALL APPLY SUBSTANTIVE AND PROCEDURAL CALIFORNIA LAW TO ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ANY CONFLICT-OF-LAW PROVISIONS OF ANY JURISDICTION.  TO THE EXTENT THAT THE JAMS RULES CONFLICT WITH CALIFORNIA LAW, CALIFORNIA LAW SHALL TAKE PRECEDENCE.  THE DECISION OF THE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE FINAL, CONCLUSIVE, AND BINDING ON THE PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION.  THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE PREVAILING PARTY IN ANY 

Page 6 of 26

ARBITRATION SHALL BE ENTITLED TO INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO ENFORCE THE ARBITRATION AWARD.  THE PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION SHALL EACH PAY AN EQUAL SHARE OF THE COSTS AND EXPENSES OF SUCH ARBITRATION, AND EACH PARTY SHALL SEPARATELY PAY FOR ITS RESPECTIVE COUNSEL FEES AND EXPENSES; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL AWARD ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS TO THE PREVAILING PARTY, EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW.  THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE TO WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN THEM RESOLVED IN A COURT OF LAW BY A JUDGE OR JURY.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THIS SECTION WILL NOT PREVENT EITHER PARTY FROM SEEKING INJUNCTIVE RELIEF (OR ANY OTHER PROVISIONAL REMEDY) FROM ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER THE PARTIES AND THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THEIR DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE AGREEMENTS INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE.  SHOULD ANY PART OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT CONTAINED IN THIS PARAGRAPH CONFLICT WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN.
20.    Tax Consequences.  The Company makes no representations or warranties with respect to the tax consequences of the payments and any other consideration provided to Employee or made on his behalf under the terms of this Agreement.  Employee agrees and understands that he is responsible for payment, if any, of local, state, and/or federal taxes on the payments and any other consideration provided hereunder by the Company and any penalties or assessments thereon.
21.    Section 409A.  It is intended that this Agreement and the payment of all severance and other benefits shall be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) as a “short-term deferral” as set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the final regulations issued under Section 409A or such other exemption as may apply.  To the extent not otherwise exempt from Section 409A, any payment pursuant to Section 2 is intended to, and will be construed and implemented so as to comply in all respects with, Section 409A, including with respect to Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(b).  It is intended that each installment of the payments provided hereunder constitute separate “payments” for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).  With respect to reimbursements (whether such reimbursements are for business expenses or, to the extent permitted under the Company’s policies, other expenses) and/or in-kind benefits, in each case, that constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion), each of the following shall apply: (1) no reimbursement of expenses incurred by the Employee during any taxable year shall be made after the last day of the following taxable year of the Employee, (2) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during a taxable year of the Employee shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, to the Employee in any other taxable year, and (3) the right to reimbursement of such expenses or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.  
22.    Authority.  The Company represents and warrants that the undersigned has the authority to act on behalf of the Company and to bind the Company and all who may claim through it to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Employee represents and warrants that he has the capacity to act on his own behalf and on behalf of all who might claim through him to bind them to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Each Party warrants and represents that there are 

Page 7 of 26

no liens or claims of lien or assignments in law or equity or otherwise of or against any of the claims or causes of action released herein.
23.    No Representations.  Employee represents that he has had an opportunity to consult with an attorney, and has carefully read and understands the scope and effect of the provisions of this Agreement.  Employee has not relied upon any representations or statements made by the Company that are not specifically set forth in this Agreement.
24.    Severability.  In the event that any provision or any portion of any provision hereof or any surviving agreement made a part hereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision or portion of provision.
25.    Attorneys’ Fees.  Except with regard to a legal action challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of the waiver herein under the ADEA, in the event that either Party brings an action to enforce or effect its rights under this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover its costs and expenses, including the costs of mediation, arbitration, litigation, court fees, and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with such an action.
26.    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement (including the Consulting Agreement) represents the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and Employee concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and Employee’s employment with and separation from the Company and the events leading thereto and associated therewith, and supersedes and replaces any and all prior agreements and understandings concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and Employee’s relationship with the Company, including, but not limited to, the Severance Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnification Agreement, the Stock Agreements, and the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

Employee understands that this Agreement shall be null and void if not executed by him within such period of twenty-one (21) calendar days.  Employee shall have a period of seven (7) calendar days after he has signed this Agreement in which to revoke his acceptance.  This Agreement will become effective on the eighth (8th) day after Employee signed this Agreement, so long as Employee has not revoked his acceptance before that date (the “Effective Date”).
30.    Counterparts.

(a)    Assignment.  Consultant agrees that all copyrightable material, notes, records, drawings, designs, inventions, improvements, developments, discoveries and trade secrets, if any, conceived, made or discovered by Consultant, solely or in collaboration with others, during the term of this Consulting Agreement through the use of the Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secrets and which relate in any manner to the business of Company (collectively, “Work Product”), are the sole property of Company.  Consultant further shall assign (or cause to be assigned) and does hereby assign fully to Company all Work Product and any copyrights, patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights relating thereto.
(b)    Further Assurances.  Consultant shall assist Company, or its designee, at Company’s expense, in every proper way to secure Company’s rights in the Work Product and any copyrights, patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights relating thereto in any and all countries, including the disclosure to Company of all pertinent information and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments and all other instruments that Company deems necessary in order to apply for and obtain such rights and in order to assign and convey to Company, its successors, assigns and nominees the sole and exclusive right, title and interest in and to such Work Product, and any copyrights, patents, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights relating thereto.  Consultant further agrees that Consultant’s obligation to execute or cause to be executed, when it is in Consultant’s power to do so, any such instrument or papers will continue after the termination of this Consulting Agreement.
(c)    Pre-Existing Materials.  Consultant agrees that if in the course of performing the Services, Consultant incorporates into any Invention developed hereunder any invention, improvement, development, concept, discovery or other proprietary information owned by Consultant or in which Consultant has an interest, (1) Consultant shall inform Company, in writing before incorporating such  invention, improvement, development, concept, discovery or other proprietary information into any Invention; and (2) Company is hereby granted and shall have a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide license to make, have made, modify, use and sell such item as part of or in connection with such Invention.

(d)    Attorney in Fact.  Where Company is unable because of Consultant’s unavailability, dissolution, mental or physical incapacity, or for any other reason, to secure Consultant’s signature to apply for or to pursue any application for any United States or foreign patents or mask work or copyright registrations covering the Work Product assigned to Company above, then Consultant hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Consultant’s agent and attorney in fact, to act for and in Consultant’s behalf and stead to execute and file any such applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patents, copyright and mask work registrations thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Consultant.
(e)    Warranty.

2.    CONFLICTING OBLIGATIONS
Consultant represents and warrants that Consultant has no current agreements, relationships, or commitments to any other person or entity that conflict with the provisions of this Consulting Agreement, Consultant’s obligations to the Company under this Consulting Agreement, and/or Consultant’s ability to perform the Services (including, without limitation, relationships with the Company’s competitors, partners, or customers).  During the term of this Consulting Agreement, Consultant agrees that he will provide written notice to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer prior to entering into any employment, consulting, or advisory relationship that constitutes a Conflicting Relationship (as defined below).  Without violating any confidentiality obligations of Consultant to third parties or disclosing to the Company any confidential or proprietary information of any third party, Consultant’s written notice shall describe the nature of Consultant’s proposed relationship and, if applicable, the basis for Consultant’s view that such relationship does not create a conflicting obligation with respect to the Company.  The Company shall then submit (within 24 hours) such notice to the Company’s Board of Directors, who shall, in their sole and absolute discretion, determine whether the Conflicting Relationship is or could reasonably be determined to be adverse to the interests of the Company and its stockholders.  The Company shall notify Consultant in writing of the Board of Directors’ determination within 24 hours of its being made, and Consultant shall then have 24 hours to notify the Company in writing of his decision to pursue such Conflicting Relationship.  In the event Consultant fails to deliver such written notice within 24 hours or indicates his intent to accept the Conflicting Relationship, this Agreement shall be deemed terminated for Cause (as contemplated pursuant to Section 5 below) with effect from the date of Consultant’s initial written notice.  For purposes of this Consulting Agreement, a “Conflicting Relationship” means any employment, consulting, or advisory relationship of any kind or character with any of Broadcom Corporation, NXP Semiconductors N.V., Silicon Laboratories Inc., or Entropic Communications Inc. (or any of the foregoing entities’ subsidiaries or affiliated entities) that relates directly or indirectly to such entities’ current or future products or businesses in the following markets: (i) tuners or tuner-demodulators, amplifiers, Multimedia Over Coaxial (MoCA) radio technologies for terrestrial, cable, or satellite applications; (ii) satellite LNB (low-noise block) 

Page 14 of 26

technologies; and (iii) any and all markets for which the Company had products in production or development  as of December 15, 2014.
3.    TERM AND TERMINATION
(a)    Term.  This Consulting Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue until the earlier of (i) August 31, 2015 or (ii) termination as provided in Section 5(b) below (the “Consulting Term”).
(b)    Termination.  The Company may terminate this Consulting Agreement upon giving Consultant fourteen (14) days prior written notice of such termination.  If the Company terminates  Consultant’s consulting relationship with the Company prior to August 31, 2015, and such termination is for reasons other than for Cause, then, subject to Consultant’s signing and not revoking the Supplemental Release, and such Supplemental Release’s becoming effective and irrevocable within five (5) days of Consultant’s termination or such earlier deadline required by the Supplemental Release (such deadline, the “Supplemental Release Deadline”), then (i) Consultant will receive a single lump sum payment (less applicable withholding taxes) in an amount equal to the amount of compensation that Consultant would have received pursuant to Section 3.A. of Appendix A had the Consulting Agreement continued until August 31, 2015, and (ii) the vesting of Consultant’s then outstanding equity awards will accelerate as to that number of shares that would have vested had Consultant continued to provide services through August 31, 2015 (together, the “Additional Benefit”).  The cash portion of the Additional Benefit will be paid within five (5) days following the date the Supplemental Release becomes effective and irrevocable.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the Supplemental Release’s becoming effective and irrevocable by the Supplemental Release Deadline, any severance payments or benefits under this Consulting Agreement that would be considered Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits (as defined in Section 6(o) below) shall be paid on the sixtieth (60th) day following Consultant’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.  For purposes of clarification, if this Consulting Agreement is terminated for Cause, then, in all cases, (i) subject to any outstanding obligations under Section 5(c)(i) of this Consulting Agreement, the Company’s obligations specified in Section 3 (Compensation) of Appendix A of this Consulting Agreement shall immediately cease as of the date of termination, (ii) the vesting of Consultant’s then outstanding equity awards shall immediately cease as of the date of termination, and (iii) the Additional Benefit will not be provided.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary in this Consulting Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 5(c)(i)), in the event of a termination for Cause pursuant to clause (ix) below, Consultant shall not be entitled to any compensation pursuant to this Consulting Agreement, including without limitation, any entitlement to cash compensation as set forth Appendix A hereof, and the vesting of all equity incentive awards subject to the Stock Agreements (as defined in the Separation Agreement) shall immediately cease.    
For purposes of this Consulting Agreement, “Cause” will mean:
(i)    Consultant’s willful and continued failure to perform the Services in accordance with this Consulting Agreement (other than as a result of Consultant’s illness or injury) after there has been delivered to Consultant a written demand for performance from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer that describes the basis for the Chief Executive Officer’s belief that Consultant has willfully and continually failed to perform the Services and which provides Consultant with a reasonable period (as determined in the sole discretion of the Chief Executive Officer, but not to exceed twenty (20) days) to take corrective action; 

Page 15 of 26

(ii)    Any willful and knowing misrepresentation made by Consultant to any of the Company’s current or prospective customers, suppliers, partners or employees in the course of performing the Services, provided that the Company shall provide Consultant written notice of such misrepresentation and, if in the opinion of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, reasonably held, such misrepresentation is capable of cure, the opportunity to cure such misrepresentation within five (5) business days (the determination whether such misrepresentation has been cured being in the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors in accordance with the adjudication process described below); 
(iii)    Consultant’s conviction of, or plea of nolo contendere to, a felony that the Chief Executive Officer reasonably believes has had or will have a material detrimental effect on the Company’s reputation or business;
(iv)    Except with the Company’s prior written consent, Consultant’s entering into a Conflicting Relationship as contemplated pursuant to Section 4 above;
(v)    Consultant’s being found liable for violation of federal securities laws in any Securities and Exchange Commission or other civil or criminal proceeding (regardless of whether or not Consultant admits or denies liability), which the Chief Executive Officer determines, in his or her reasonable discretion, will have a material detrimental effect on the Company’s reputation or business;
(vi)    Intentionally Left Blank;
(vii)    Consultant’s material breach of the Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment, and Arbitration Agreement dated July 5, 2011 (as amended pursuant to Section 17 of the Separation Agreement) or the Separation Agreement and Release dated as of the date hereof (the “Separation Agreement”); provided that the Company shall provide Consultant written notice of such breach and, if in the opinion of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, reasonably held, such breach is capable of cure, the opportunity to cure such breach within five (5) business days (the determination whether such breach has been cured being made in the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors in accordance with the adjudication process described below);
(viii) Consultant’s (A) obstructing or impeding; (B) endeavoring to obstruct or impede, or (C) failing to materially cooperate with, any investigation authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) or any governmental or self-regulatory entity (an “Investigation”), provided that Consultant’s failure to waive attorney-client privilege relating to communications with Consultant’s own attorney in connection with an Investigation will not constitute “Cause”; or
(ix)    Consultant’s revocation of the Separation Agreement in accordance with Section 29 thereof.
Other than in connection with a termination pursuant to (iii) or (ix), or pursuant to (iv) above (for which the procedural provisions of Section 4 shall apply), Consultant shall receive written notice detailing the purported cause and an opportunity to be heard before the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) with Consultant’s own attorney before any termination for Cause is deemed effective.  The Board shall in good faith determine whether “Cause” exists to terminate this Consulting Agreement as contemplated herein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, 

Page 16 of 26

the Board may immediately suspend all access to Company information, employees and business.  If Consultant avails himself of his opportunity to be heard before the Board, and then fails to make himself available to the Board within five (5) business days of such request to be heard, the Board may terminate Consultant for Cause.
(c)    Survival.  Upon a termination of this Consulting Agreement, all rights and duties of the parties toward each other will cease except:
(i)    Company shall pay, within 10 days after the effective date of termination, all amounts owing to Consultant for Services completed and accepted by Company prior to the termination date and related expenses, if any, in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 (Services and Compensation); 
(ii)    In the event of a termination by the Company without Cause, the Company’s obligations specified in Section 5(b) with respect to payment for Services and accelerated vesting shall survive such termination; 
(iii)    Sections 2 (Confidentiality), 3 (Ownership), 5 (Term and Termination), and 6 (Miscellaneous) will survive termination of this Consulting Agreement; and
(iv)    The following agreements between the Company and Consultant shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms: (i) the Separation Agreement and Release entered into by the parties as of the date hereof (the “Separation Agreement”); (ii) the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined in the Separation Agreement); (iii) the Indemnification Agreement (as defined in the Separation Agreement); and (iv) the Stock Agreements (as defined in the Separation Agreement).
(d)    Supplemental Release.  Upon termination of the Consulting Agreement and subject to the Company’s satisfaction of its obligations under this Consulting Agreement and the Separation Agreement, Consultant agrees to execute the Supplemental Release attached hereto as Exhibit B (“Supplemental Release”).  Consultant agrees that his failure to execute and return the Supplemental Release within five (5) business days of the termination of the Consulting Agreement shall entitle the Company to immediately recover and/or cease providing the consideration promised in the Consulting Agreement and Consultant will not be entitled to receive any additional payments or benefits under this Consulting Agreement (including the Additional Benefit).  
4.    MISCELLANEOUS
(a)    Services and Information Prior to Effective Date.  All Services performed by Consultant and all information and other materials disclosed between the parties after the Effective Date shall be governed by the terms of this Consulting Agreement.
(b)    Nonassignment/Binding Agreement.  The parties acknowledge that the unique nature of Consultant’s services is substantial consideration for the parties’ entering into this Consulting Agreement.  Neither this Consulting Agreement nor any rights under this Consulting Agreement may be assigned or otherwise transferred by Consultant, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.  Subject to the foregoing, this Consulting Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Any assignment in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.

(d)    Intentionally Left Blank.  
(e)    Notices.  Any notice or other communication required or permitted by this Consulting Agreement to be given to a Party shall be in writing and shall be deemed given (i) if delivered personally or by commercial messenger or courier service, (ii) when sent by confirmed facsimile, (ii) upon transmission of electronic mail in the case of the Company to its Chief Executive Officer and if to Consultant to the e-mail address provided by Consultant to the Company in his notice of resignation, or (iii) if mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), to the Party at the Party’s address written below or at such other address as the Party may have previously specified by like notice. If by mail, delivery shall be deemed effective three business days after mailing in accordance with this Section.

Attention: Chief Executive Officer
(ii)    If to Consultant, to the address for notice on the signature page to this Consulting Agreement or, if no such address is provided, to the last address of Consultant provided by Consultant to the Company.
(f)    Waiver.  Any waiver of the provisions of this Consulting Agreement or of a party’s rights or remedies under this Consulting Agreement must be in writing to be effective.  Failure, neglect, or delay by a party to enforce the provisions of this Consulting Agreement or its rights or remedies at any time, will not be construed as a waiver of such party’s rights under this Consulting Agreement and will not in any way affect the validity of the whole or any part of this Consulting Agreement or prejudice such party’s right to take subsequent action. No exercise or enforcement by either party of any right or remedy under this Consulting Agreement will preclude the enforcement by such party of any other right or remedy under this Consulting Agreement or that such party is entitled by law to enforce.
(g)    Severability.  If any term, condition, or provision in this Consulting Agreement is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, the parties shall endeavor in good faith to agree to such amendments that will preserve, as far as possible, the intentions expressed in this Consulting Agreement.  If the parties fail to agree on such an amendment, such invalid term, condition or provision will be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions, which will continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.  Notwithstanding, to the extent the Company’s obligation to pay the compensation provided for under this Consulting Agreement is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, and the Parties fail in good faith to agree to an amendment that preserves, as far as possible, the intentions expressed in this Consulting Agreement, the Parties shall not be further bound by the remaining terms, conditions or provisions of this Consulting Agreement.
(h)    Integration.  This Consulting Agreement, the Supplemental Release, and the Separation Agreement contain the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter 

Page 18 of 26

of this Consulting Agreement and supersede all previous communications, representations, understandings and agreements, either oral or written, between the parties with respect to said subject matter.  No terms, provisions or conditions of any purchase order, acknowledgement or other business form that either party may use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Consulting Agreement will have any effect on the rights, duties or obligations of the parties under, or otherwise modify, this Consulting Agreement, regardless of any failure of a receiving party to object to such terms, provisions or conditions.  This Consulting Agreement may not be amended, except by a writing signed by both parties.
(i)    Intentionally Left Blank.  
(j)    Counterparts.  This Consulting Agreement may be executed in counterparts and transmitted electronically, each of which so executed will be deemed to be an original and such counterparts together will constitute one and the same agreement.
(k)    Governing Law.  This Consulting Agreement will be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California and the United States of America, without regard to conflict of law principles.
(l)    Independent Contractor.  It is the express intention of the parties that Consultant is an independent contractor.  Nothing in this Consulting Agreement, including the election of the Rules in the arbitration provision, will in any way be construed to constitute Consultant as an agent, employee or representative of Company, but Consultant shall perform the Services hereunder as an independent contractor.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Consultant is not authorized to bind the Company to any liability or obligation or to represent that Consultant has any such authority.  Consultant shall furnish (or reimburse Company for) all tools and materials necessary to accomplish this contract, and will incur all expenses associated with performance, except as expressly provided on the applicable Statement of Work.  Consultant acknowledges and agrees that Consultant is obligated to report as income all compensation received by Consultant pursuant to this Consulting Agreement, and Consultant acknowledges its obligation to pay all self-employment and other taxes thereon.
(m)    Benefits.  With the exception of any benefits listed in this Consulting Agreement or the Separation Agreement, Consultant acknowledges that Consultant will receive no Company-sponsored benefits from Company either as a Consultant or employee, where benefits include without limitation paid vacation, sick leave, medical insurance, welfare plan, and retirement plan and 401(k) plan participation.  If Consultant is reclassified by a state or federal agency or court as an employee, Consultant will become a reclassified employee and will receive no benefits, even if, by the terms of Company’s benefit plans in effect at the time of such reclassification, Consultant would otherwise be eligible for such benefits.
(n)    Attorney’s Fees.  In any court action at law or equity which is brought by one of the parties to enforce or interpret the provisions of this Consulting Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees, in addition to any other relief to which that party may be entitled.
(o)    Code Section 409A.
Any amount paid under this Consulting Agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the regulations issued under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) shall not constitute 

Page 19 of 26

Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits for purposes of the paragraph below, and consequently will be paid to Consultant promptly following termination as required by Section 5(b).  It is intended that all cash severance payments under this Consulting Agreement, if any, satisfy the short-term deferral rule.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Consulting Agreement, the severance payable to Consultant, if any, pursuant to this Consulting Agreement, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits, are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Compensation Separation Benefits”) will not become payable under this Consulting Agreement until Consultant has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and any proposed or final regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”).
The foregoing provisions are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply.

APPENDIX A
SERVICES AND COMPENSATION
1.Contact.  Consultant’s principal Company contact:
Name: Kishore Seendripu    
Title: Chief Executive Officer    
2.    Services.  The Services shall consist solely of Customer Introductions and Road Map Explanation (each as defined below):
		
	•
	Introductions of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (i) by phone or email as the Company may request to key contacts at the Company’s customers with whom Consultant had a relationship during his prior employment with the Company and (ii) at the Company’s expense, by Consultant’s personal visit (not to exceed two business days) with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to a key customer identified to Consultant by the Company in connection with the execution and delivery of this Consulting Agreement (“Customer Introductions”); and

		
	•
	Explanation to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer in person or by phone or email of the product road maps that Consultant developed and contributed to during his prior employment with the Company (“Road Map Explanation”).

Consultant shall provide Customer Introductions during the entire term of this Consulting Agreement.  Consultant and Chief Executive Officer shall work together promptly after the execution and delivery of this Consulting Agreement to fix a date for the on-site customer visit that is reasonably acceptable to Consultant, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and the customer (including the individual contacts for whom the Company’s Chief Executive Officer has requested a personal meeting).  
Except with respect to the on-site customer visit described herein and otherwise with Consultant’s consent, Consultant’s obligation to provide Services pursuant to this Consulting Agreement shall not exceed five (5) hours per week.
Consultant shall not be responsible if any requested introduction declines to accept a telephone call from or personal meeting with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.  Consultant shall only be required to use his reasonable best efforts to call such conversations or meetings to occur.
Consultant shall be obligated to provide Road Map Explanation only during the first ninety (90) calendar days after the execution and delivery of this Consulting Agreement.
Except with the consent of Consultant and to the extent required for purposes of Road Map Explanation, Company shall not require that Consultant assist in any manner in the development of customer or business strategies of the Company.  The Company shall limit individual contact with Consultant pursuant to this Consulting Agreement to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer; Vice President of Human Resources; and such administrative, finance and stock administration personnel as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that the Company satisfies its obligations pursuant to this Consulting Agreement.  In that regard, the Company shall use its commercially 

Page 22 of 26

reasonable efforts to ensure that its Chief Executive Officer does not disclose to Consultant information originating after December 15, 2014 that relates to its business, products, operating results, strategic initiatives, or prospects and that would reasonably be expected to constitute “material non-public information” under applicable securities laws.  Consultant is aware of his obligations under such laws, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Consulting Agreement or the Separation Agreement, Consultant shall be solely responsible for complying with applicable securities laws.
3.    Compensation.
A.    Subject in all cases to the terms and conditions set forth in the Consulting Agreement, the Company shall pay Consultant an aggregate of $66,250 in consideration for the Services, payable in nine equal monthly installments on the last day of each calendar month beginning on December 31, 2014.  Consultant shall be responsible for any and all tax liabilities related to such income.
B.    The Company will reimburse Consultant, in accordance with Company policy, for all reasonable and necessary business expenses incurred by Consultant in performing the Services pursuant to this Consulting Agreement, if Consultant receives written consent from an authorized agent of the Company prior to incurring such expenses and submits receipts for such expenses to the Company in accordance with Company policy.
In order to help prevent adverse tax consequences to Consultant under Section 409A, in no event will any payment under Section 3.A. of this Appendix be made later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such payment was earned.
All payments and benefits provided for under this Consulting Agreement are intended to be exempt from or otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to be exempt or so comply. Each payment and benefit payable under this Consulting Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial
prepayments of Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole 

  
 41 

 
multiple thereof. Optional prepayments of Converted Term Loans may not be reborrowed and partial prepayments of Converted Term Loans may be applied to scheduled installments thereof in such order
as directed by the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice of prepayment delivered in connection with any refinancing or prepayment of all of the Revolving Facility or the Converted Term Loans, as applicable, with the proceeds of
Indebtedness or other transaction to be incurred or consummated substantially simultaneously with such refinancing or prepayment, may be, if expressly stated in such notice of prepayment, contingent upon the consummation of such transactions and may
be revoked by the Borrower in the event the incurrence of such transaction is not consummated. 
 2.6 Mandatory Prepayments and
Commitment Reductions. (a) If for any reason the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit (or, on or following the Revolving Termination Date, the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Converted Term Loans) exceeds the lesser of
(x) the Total Revolving Commitments then in effect and (y) the Maximum Permitted Outstanding Amount, the Borrower shall immediately, prepay the applicable Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess 

(b) If any Capital Stock shall be issued by any Group Member (other than to another Group Member) on or after the Revolving Termination Date,
an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied within one (1) Business Day of the date of such issuance toward the prepayment of the Converted Term Loans; provided, however, that so long as no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and solely to the extent that it is reasonably necessary to use such Net Cash Proceeds for such purpose (taking into account all other cash available to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for
the purposes described in this clause (b)), the Borrower may use all or a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds to (A) pay any operating expenses of the Group Members due and payable at the time of, or anticipated to become due and payable within
sixty (60) days after the date of such sale or issuance of its Capital Stock, in either case, to the extent such amounts are approved by Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) (B) make dividends or other
distributions as permitted under Section 7.6(e) to the extent necessary to maintain the status of the Borrower (or, following the Up-REIT Transaction, the REIT Entity) as a REIT under the Code, so long as (x) the Borrower delivers to the
Administrative Agent a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying (1) that such use of such Net Cash Proceeds for such purpose is reasonably necessary (taking into account all other cash available to the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries) and (2) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds necessary to be used for such purpose, together with a detailed calculation thereof and (y) such Net Cash Proceeds are used for such purpose within sixty (60) days after
the date of such sale or issuance of its Capital Stock (it being understood that in the event such Net Cash Proceeds are not so used within sixty (60) days, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within one (1) Business Day thereafter
toward the prepayment of the Converted Term Loans as set forth above). 
 (c) Not later than the next Business Day following the receipt by
any Loan Party on or after the Revolving Termination Date of any Net Cash Proceeds from an Investment Asset Payment, the Borrower shall prepay the Converted Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided,
however, that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and solely to the extent that it is reasonably necessary to use such Net Cash Proceeds for such purpose (taking into account all other cash
available to Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the purposes described in this clause (c)), the Borrower may use all or a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds to (A) pay any operating expenses of the Group Members that are due and payable at the
time of, or anticipated to become due and payable within sixty (60) days after the date of such Investment Asset Payment, in either case, to the extent such amounts are approved by Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld) or (B) make dividends or other distributions as permitted under Section 7.6(e) to the extent necessary to maintain the status of the Borrower (or, following the Up-REIT Transaction, the REIT Entity) as a REIT under the Code, so
long as (x) the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying (1) that such use of such Net Cash 

  
 42 

 
Proceeds for such purpose is reasonably necessary (taking into account all other cash available to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) and (2) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds necessary
to be used for such purpose, together with a detailed calculation thereof and (y) such Net Cash Proceeds are used for such purpose within one hundred-twenty (120) days after the date of such Investment Asset Payment (it being understood
that in the event such Net Cash Proceeds are not so used within one hundred-twenty (120) days, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within one (1) Business Day thereafter toward the prepayment of the Converted Term Loans as set forth
above. 
 (d) If any Indebtedness shall be incurred pursuant to Section 7.2(h), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds
thereof shall be immediately applied toward the prepayment of the Loans. 
 (e) Any reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be
accompanied by prepayment of the Revolving Loans to the extent, if any, that the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the amount of the Total Revolving Commitments as so reduced, provided that if the aggregate principal amount of
Revolving Loans then outstanding is less than the amount of such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrower shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, cash collateralize on or prior to the date of such
reduction (in the manner described in Section 3.9) or replace outstanding Letters of Credit. The application of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.6 shall be made, first, to ABR Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Each
prepayment of the Revolving Loans or Converted Term Loans under Section 2.6 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid. Amounts to be
applied in connection with prepayments of Converted Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.6 shall be applied to scheduled installments thereof in direct order of maturity. Mandatory prepayments of Converted Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

 2.7 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR
Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date, provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans
may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than
12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no ABR Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar
Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversions. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 
 (b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the
then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the
length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required
Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuations or (ii) if an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 8(f) with respect to the Borrower is in existence, and
provided, further, that (i) if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or to specify any Interest Period in any such notice, such Loans shall be continued as Eurodollar Loans with
an Interest Period of one month, or (ii) if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of
any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 

  
 43 

 2.8 Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate
principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time. 

2.9 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with
respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (b) Each ABR Loan
shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal
amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of Loans, the rate
that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2% or (y) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the rate applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2% and
(ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such
overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans plus 2%, in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in
full (as well after as before judgment). 
 (d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that
interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand. 
 2.10 Computation of
Interest and Fees. (a) Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to ABR Loans, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis
of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest
rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable
notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. 
 (b) Each
determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the
request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.9(a). 

2.11 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: 

the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that
adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period, or 

  
 44 

 the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders
that the Eurodollar Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, as applicable, determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or
maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, 
 the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower
and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans that were to have been
converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such
notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans to Eurodollar Loans. 

2.12 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower
on account of any commitment fee (other than as provided in Section 2.18(a)) and any reduction of the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Percentages of the relevant
Lenders. 
 (b) Subject to Section 2.18, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and
interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans then held by the Lenders. 

(c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise,
shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately
available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to each relevant Lender promptly upon receipt in like funds as received, net of any amounts owing by such Lender pursuant to Section 9.7. If any payment hereunder (other
than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a
Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the
amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative
Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such 

  
 45 

 
borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such
amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans, on demand, from the Borrower. 
 (e) Unless the Administrative
Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that
the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such
payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant
to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the
Borrower. 
 (f) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.12(d), 2.12(e), 2.14(e)
or 8.7, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender in accordance with Section 2.18(c).

 2.13 Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or
application thereof or compliance by any Lender or other Credit Party with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof: 

(i) shall subject any Credit Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes and (B) Excluded Taxes ) on its
loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar
requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit (or participations therein) by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not
otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate; or 
 (iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition
(other than Taxes); 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Credit Party, by an amount that such
Lender or other Credit Party deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case,
the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender or such other Credit Party, upon its demand and delivery to Borrower of a certificate described in clause (d) below, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such other Credit
Party for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender or such other Credit Party becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 
 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the
adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or

  
 46 

 
directive regarding capital or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing
the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved
but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time,
after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor in the form of a certificate described in clause (d) below, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
(i) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by United States or foreign regulatory
authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and (ii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in
implementation thereof, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented; provided that a Lender may only submit a request for compensation in connection with the changes in
the Requirements in Law described in clauses (i) and (ii) above if such Lender imposes such increased costs on borrowers similarly situated to the Borrower under syndicated credit facilities comparable to the Revolving Facility or the
Converted Term Loans, as applicable. 
 (d) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any
Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to
this Section for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim
have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of
the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 2.14 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of
any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires
the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, after such deduction or withholding has been made
(including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14), the amounts received with respect to this agreement equal the sum which would have been received had no such deduction or withholding
been made. 
 (b) The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the
option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes. 
 (c) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any
Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative 

  
 47 

 
Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment (if any), or a copy of the return reporting such payment (or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). 
 (d) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Credit
Party, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable to such Credit Party by a Loan Party under this Section) payable or paid
by such Credit Party or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Credit Party and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender,
shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after
demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so) and
(ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in
connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount
of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such
Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e). 

(f) (i) Each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan
Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.14(f)(ii)(A),
(ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or
commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower
is a U.S. Person, 
 (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or
prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender
is fully exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

  
 48 

 (B) any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon
the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable (plus any other documents or other evidence to fully exempt any amount payable or paid to such Non-U.S. Lender from U.S. federal backup
withholding tax): 
  

	 	(1)	in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form
W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty (if such amount is properly treated as interest thereunder
and as otherwise required under U.S. federal tax law) and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or
reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

  

	 	(2)	executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

  

	 	(3)	in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that
such Non-U.S. Lender is none of the following: a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a
“controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form
W-8BEN-E; 

  

	 	(4)	to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other valid and reasonably acceptable certification documents from each beneficial
owner, as applicable; provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax
Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

(C) any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be
prescribed by applicable 

  
 49 

 
law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

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

(g) If any party determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified
pursuant to this Section 2.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under
this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect
to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the
relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be
required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax
subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed
to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

(h) Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any
assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under the Loan Documents. 

(i) For purposes of this Section 2.14 and the relevant defined terms used therein, (A) the term “applicable law” includes
FATCA and (B) the term “Lender” includes the Issuing LenderLenders. 
 (j) For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Second Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and 

  
 50 

 
the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered
obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i). 

2.15 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such
Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making
of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on
the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow,
convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any)
over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar
market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of
the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 2.16 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of
any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.13, 2.14(a), or 2.14(d) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate
another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its
lending offices to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant
to Section 2.13, 2.14(a), or 2.14(d). 
 2.17 Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that
(a) requests (or any Participant to which such Lender sold a participation requests) reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.13, 2.14(a) or 2.14(d), (b) becomes a Defaulting Lender, or (c) does not consent to any
proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby (so long as the consent of the
Required Lenders (with the percentage in such definition being deemed to be 50% for this purpose) has been obtained), with a replacement financial institution; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of
Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) prior to any such replacement, such Lender (or Participant, as applicable) shall have taken no action under Section 2.16 so as
to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.13, 2.14(a), or 2.14(d), (iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender (or
Participant, as applicable) on or prior to the date of replacement, (v) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender (or Participant, as applicable) under Section 2.15 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender (or
Participant, as applicable) shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (vi) except in the case of a Participant, the replacement financial institution shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, (vii) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the 

  
 51 

 
provisions of Section 10.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (viii) until such time as such
replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.13, 2.14(a), or 2.14(d), as the case may be, and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any
rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender (or Participant, as applicable). Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant
to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee, and that the Lender (or Participant, as applicable) required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be
effective. 
 2.18 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) fees shall cease to
accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.3(a) (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Borrower shall have no obligation to retroactively pay such fees after
such Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender); 
 (b) the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Extensions of Credit of such Defaulting Lender
shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or the Supermajority Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.1);
provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby; 

(c) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender
(whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.7 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the
Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the
funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to
the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as
no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal
amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be
applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the
Revolving Commitments. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a 

  
 52 

 
Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.18(c) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto;

 (d) if any L/C Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 

(i) all or any part of the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with
their respective Revolving Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Extensions of Credit plus such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’
Revolving Commitments; 
 (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the
Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing LenderLenders only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C
Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.9 for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding; 

(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the
Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.3(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is cash collateralized;

 (iv) if the L/C Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the
Lenders pursuant to Section 2.3(a) and Section 3.3(a) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Percentages; and 

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause
(i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing LenderLenders or any other Lender hereunder, all fees payable under Section 3.3(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure
shall be payable to the applicable Issuing LenderLenders until and to the
extent that such L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and 
 (e) so long as such
Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing
LenderLenders shall
 not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding L/C Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the
non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.18(d), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in
a manner consistent with Section 2.18(d)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 
 If (i) a
Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Lender Parent of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) thean Issuing Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its
obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, theno Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless thesuch Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall

  
 53 

 
have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to thesuch Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender
hereunder. 
 In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Issuing LenderLenders each agrees
that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the L/C Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such
date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage.

 2.19 Incremental Commitments. (a) The Borrower and any one or more Lenders (including New Lenders) may from
time to time prior to the Revolving Termination Date agree that such Lenders shall make, obtain or increase the amount of their Revolving Commitments (each, a “Commitment Increase”) by executing and delivering to the Administrative
Agents an Increased Facility Activation Notice specifying (i) the amount of such increase and (ii) the applicable Increased Facility Closing Date; provided that immediately prior to and after giving effect to any such increase in
the Revolving Commitments (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in
all material respects on and as of such date as if made on and as of such date (except that any representations and warranties which expressly relate to an earlier date shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) without the consent of the Required Lenders, the aggregate amount of incremental Revolving Commitments obtained after the
ClosingSecond Amendment Effective Date pursuant to this paragraph shall not exceed $240,000,000the Maximum Permitted Increase Amount and (ii) without the consent of the Administrative Agent, (x) each increase effected pursuant to
this paragraph shall be in a minimum amount of at least $25,000,000 and (y) no more than five Increased Facility Closing Dates may be selected by the Borrower after the Closing Date. No Lender shall have any obligation to participate in any
increase described in this paragraph unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion. 
 (b) Any additional
bank, financial institution or other entity which, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), elects to become a “Lender” under this Agreement in connection with any
transaction described in Section 2.19(a) shall execute a New Lender Supplement (each, a “New Lender Supplement”), substantially in the form of Exhibit H, whereupon such bank, financial institution or other entity (a
“New Lender”) shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. 

(c) Upon each Increased Facility Closing Date, the Borrower shall (A) prepay the outstanding Revolving Loans (if any) in full,
(B) simultaneously borrow new Revolving Loans hereunder in an amount equal to such prepayment (in the case of Eurodollar Loans, with Eurodollar Base Rates equal to the outstanding Eurodollar Base Rate and with Interest Period(s) ending on the
date(s) of any then outstanding Interest Period(s)), as applicable (as modified hereby); provided that with respect to subclauses (A) and (B), (x) the prepayment to, and borrowing from, any existing Lender shall be effected by book
entry to the extent that any portion of the amount prepaid to such Lender will be subsequently borrowed from such Lender and (y) the existing Lenders (including existing Lenders providing a Commitment Increase, if applicable) and the New
Lenders shall make and receive payments among themselves, in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent, so that, after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Loans are held ratably by such existing Lenders and New Lenders in accordance with the
respective Revolving Commitments of such Lenders (after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) and (C) pay to the Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.15 as a result of any such prepayment. Concurrently therewith, the
Lenders shall be deemed to have adjusted their participation 

  
 54 

 
interests in any outstanding Letters of Credit so that such interests are held ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments as so increased. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders
hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to this clause (c). 

2.20 Term Loan Conversion; Repayment of Converted Term Loans. (a) In the event that there are any Revolving Loans outstanding on
the Revolving Termination Date, such Revolving Loans shall automatically convert to term loans (each, a “Converted Term Loan”) on such date and the Revolving Commitments shall automatically terminate. Upon the conversion of the
Revolving Loans to Converted Term Loans, each Lender shall be deemed to hold its Applicable Percentage (determined immediately prior to giving effect to the Revolving Termination Date) of each of the Converted Term Loans. Each Converted Term Loan
shall continue to bear interest at the same rate as, and contain such other terms that are identical to, the Revolving Loan from which such Converted Term Loan was converted (including, in the case of a Converted Term Loan that was converted from a
Revolving Loan that was a Eurodollar Loan at the time of conversion, the same Interest Period applicable to such Revolving Loan at the time of conversion) and each reference herein to “Revolving Loans” shall be deemed to be a reference to
“Converted Term Loans” as appropriate; provided, however that (i) amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Converted Term Loans may not be reborrowed and (ii) the Borrower shall be required to repay the principal
amount of the Converted Term Loans in the amounts, and at such times, as provided in Section 2.20(b). 
 (b) The Borrower shall make a
scheduled repayment of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Converted Term Loans on each Amortization Payment Date, in an amount equal to 12.5% of the aggregate principal amount of Converted Term Loans outstanding on the Revolving
Termination Date (after giving effect to the conversion of Revolving Loans to Converted Term Loans on such date). To the extent not previously paid, all Converted Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Converted Term Loan Maturity Date. Amounts
paid or repaid in respect of Converted Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof may not reborrowed. 
 SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT

 3.1 L/C Commitment. (a)Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
theeach
Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower on any Business Day during the
Revolving Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by thesuch Issuing Lender; provided that thesuch Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect
to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations of such Issuing Lender would exceed the L/C Commitment of such Issuing Lender then in effect, or (ii) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero. Each
Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars and (ii) except as provided in Section 3.1(b) below, expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date that is five
Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in
clause (y) above). 
 (b) If requested by the Borrower, theeach Issuing Lender
agrees to issue one or more Letters of Credit hereunder, with expiry dates that would occur after the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the Revolving Termination Date, based upon the
Borrower’s agreement to cash collateralize the L/C Obligations in accordance with Section 3.9. If the Borrower fails to cash collateralize the outstanding L/C Obligations in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.9, each
outstanding Letter of Credit shall automatically be deemed to be drawn in full on such date and the reimbursement obligations of the 

  
 55 

 
Borrower set forth in Section 3.5 shall be deemed to apply and shall be construed such that the reimbursement obligation is to provide cash collateral in accordance with the requirements of
Section 3.9. 
 (c) The Borrower shall grant to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of theeach Issuing Lender and the Lenders, pursuant to the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, a security interest in all cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing as required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.1(b) or Section 3.9. Cash collateral shall
be maintained in blocked, interest bearing deposit accounts at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (or any affiliate thereof) (the “L/C Cash Collateral Account”). All interest on such cash collateral shall be paid be paid to the Borrower upon the Borrower’s request, provided that such interest shall first be applied to all
outstanding Obligations at such time and the balance shall be distributed to the Borrower. 
 (d) TheNo Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if
(i) such issuance would conflict with, or cause
thesuch Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant
to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law., (ii) any order, judgment
or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular
or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose
upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date, which such Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it and which is not subject to indemnification obligations of the Borrower
hereunder or (iii) issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally. 

(e) Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and the
Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuing
Lender shall be responsible to the Borrower for, and no Issuing Lender’s rights and remedies against the Borrower shall be impaired by, any action or inaction of such Issuing Lender required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that
is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction where an Issuing Lender or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the
decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking
Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice. 

(f) In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any
Application, the terms hereof shall control. 
 3.2 Procedure for Issuance of
Letter of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that theany Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to
thesuch Issuing Lender at its address for
notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of
thesuch Issuing Lender, and such other
certificates, documents and other papers and information as thesuch Issuing Lender may reasonably request. Upon receipt of any Application, the relevant
Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested
thereby (but in no event shall theany Issuing
Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such 

  
 56 

 
other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by
the relevant Issuing Lender and the Borrower. The
relevant Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof.
The relevant Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the
Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof). 
 3.3 Fees and Other Charges.
(a) Subject to Section 2.18(d)(iii), the Borrower will pay a fee on all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the Revolving Facility, shared
ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the relevant Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee of 0.25% per annum on the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit issued by
such Issuing Lender, payable quarterly in arrears to the relevant Issuing Lender on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. 
 (b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the
Borrower shall pay or reimburse theeach Issuing
Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by
thesuch Issuing Lender in issuing,
negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. 
 3.4 L/C Participations. (a)
TheEach Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant
and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce thesuch Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from
thesuch Issuing Lender, on the terms and
conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in
thesuch Issuing Lender’s obligations and
rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by
thesuch Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C
Participant agrees with theeach Issuing Lender
that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which thesuch Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (or in the event that any reimbursement received by thesuch Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by
it at any time) (“Unreimbursed Amounts”), such L/C Participant shall pay to thesuch Issuing Lender upon demand at thesuch Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified
herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount that is not so reimbursed (or is so returned). Each L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such L/C Participant may have against theany Issuing Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an
Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to
theany Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a)
in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by thesuch Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to
thesuch Issuing Lender within three Business
Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to thesuch Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is
required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the relevant Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction
the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any 

  
 57 

 
such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the
relevant Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, thesuch Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from
such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility. A certificate of the relevant Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the
absence of manifest error. 
 (c) Whenever, at any time after
theany Issuing Lender has made payment under any
Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), thesuch Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including
proceeds of collateral applied thereto by
thesuch Issuing Lender), or any payment of
interest on account thereof, thesuch Issuing
Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by
thesuch Issuing Lender shall be required to be
returned by thesuch Issuing Lender, such L/C
Participant shall return to thesuch Issuing
Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by thesuch Issuing Lender to it. 
 3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. If any draft is
paid under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the relevant Issuing Lender for the amount of (a) the draft so paid
and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by thesuch Issuing Lender in connection with such payment, not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such draft, if such notice is received on such day
prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, or (ii) if clause (i) above does not apply, the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice. Each such payment shall be made to the relevant Issuing Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be
payable on any such amounts from the date on which the relevant draft is paid until payment in full at the rate set forth in (x) until the Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice, Section 2.9(b) and
(y) thereafter, Section 2.9(c). 
 3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this
Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against theany Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of
Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees with theeach Issuing Lender that thesuch Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of
any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit

 59 

 
on the Closing Date and the use of proceeds thereof and (ii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared based on the
best information available to the Borrower as of the date of delivery thereof, and presents fairly in all material respects on a pro forma basis the estimated financial position of Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at
March 31, 2013, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date. 
 (b) The audited
consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2010, December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal
years ended on such dates, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from Ernst & Young LLP, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at such
date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2013, and
the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three-month period ended on such date, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the
consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the three-month period then ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments). All such financial statements, including the related
schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein). As of the Closing Date, no Group
Member has any material Guarantee Obligations, contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments,
including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to in this paragraph. 

4.2 No Change. Since December 31, 2012, there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to

 4.3 Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Group Member (a) is duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which
it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires
such qualification and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except in each case referred to in clauses (b), (c) and (d), to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and authority,
and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational action to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with,
notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement
or any of the Loan Documents, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.4 which have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (ii) the filings referred to in Section 4.19. Each
Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon 

  
 60 

 
execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability

or at law). 
 4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the issuance
of Letters of Credit, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of any Group Member, except where any such violation could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created
by the Security Documents). No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

knowledge of the Borrower, threatened by or against any Group Member or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or
(b) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property, nor does
the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim. Except as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not infringe on the
rights of any Person. 
 4.10 Taxes. Each Group Member has timely filed or caused to be filed all Federal and state income Tax
returns and any other material Tax returns that have been required to be filed (taking into account extensions) and has timely paid all such Taxes and assessments payable by it which have become due (other than any the amount or validity of which
are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been established); no Liens for Taxes have been filed (other than Liens for Taxes not yet due or the amount or
validity of which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, provided that adequate reserves with respect thereto are maintained in conformity with GAAP), and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, as of the date hereof, no
claim is being asserted with respect to any such Tax.

contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished (or, in the case of the Confidential Information Memorandum, as of the date of this
Agreement), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading. The projections and pro forma financial information
contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such financial information as it
relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount.

the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when stock certificates representing such Securities are delivered to the Administrative Agent (together with a properly completed and signed stock power or endorsement), and in the case of the other

Schedule 4.19 shall have been taken, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all

right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in each case
prior and superior in right to any other Person (except Liens permitted by Section 7.3(a), (h) and (n)).

either or both of the following actions may be taken: (i) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower declare the
Revolving Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Revolving Commitments shall immediately terminate; and (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the
beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable. With respect to all Letters of Credit with
respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the
aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion
thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After all such Letters of

  
 87 

 
Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided above in this Section, presentment, demand,
protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. 
 SECTION 9. THE AGENTS 

9.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise
such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. 

9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by
or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement
or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful
misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any
certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability
or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to
inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. 

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon
any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy or email message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the
proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of
any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written 

  
 88 

 
notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to
its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in
refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant
thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 
 9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent
shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of
Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such
action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received
such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

 9.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any
Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has,
independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent
or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and
other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the
business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors,
employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 

9.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent and its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents, advisors and
controlling persons (each, an “Agent Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in
effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance
with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against 

  
 89 

 
any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after
the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of, the Revolving Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or
referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment
of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from
such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

9.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any
kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity. 

9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the
Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which
successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or Section 8(f) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and
approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this
Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative
Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Required Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
agent with the consent of the Borrower as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 and of Section 10.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit.

 9.10 Arrangers and Syndication Agent. Neither the Arrangers nor the Syndication Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities
hereunder in their respective capacities as such. 
 SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS 

10.1 Amendments and Waivers. Except as specifically provided in any Loan Document, neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor
any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with the written consent
of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications 

  
 90 

 
hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan
Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date
of maturity of any Loan of any Lender, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Converted Term Loan of any Lender, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder to any Lender (except (x) in
connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders) and (y) that any amendment or modification of defined terms used in the
financial covenants in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i)) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any
Lender’s Revolving Commitment, in each case without the written consent of such Lender; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 10.1 without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any
percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in each case without
the written consent of all Lenders; (iv) except as otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents on the date hereof, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their
obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case, without the written consent of all Lenders; (v) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.12(a) or (b) without the written consent of all Lenders;
provided that amendments permitting the extension of the Revolving Termination Date or Converted Term Loan Maturity Date with respect to any or all Revolving Commitments or Converted Term Loans which provide for compensation solely to
extending Lenders, by increasing the Applicable Margin applicable thereto or otherwise, shall not be considered an amendment, modification or waiver of Section 2.12; (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 or any other
provision of any Loan Document that affects the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent without the written consent of the Administrative Agent; (vii) amend, modify or waive any provision affecting the Maximum Permitted Outstanding Amount
or the component definitions thereof which has the effect of increasing the Maximum Permitted Outstanding Amount (but excluding any technical amendments to the definition of Maximum Permitted Outstanding Amount or any component definition thereof)
without the written consent of the Supermajority Lenders; or (viii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3 without the written consent of theeach Issuing Lender. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall
be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right
consequent thereon. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written
consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement on such terms as provided for in any such amendment, including, without limitation, for purposes of
effecting an extension of the Revolving Termination Date and/or Converted Term Loan Maturity Date in respect of the Revolving Commitments or Converted Term Loans, as applicable, held by each Lender agreeing to such extension, and to permit the
extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Revolving Extensions of Credit or the Converted Term
Loans, as applicable, and the accrued interest and 

  
 91 

 
fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and the Supermajority Lenders. 

Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrower, may amend, modify or supplement any
Loan Document without the consent of any Lender or the Required Lenders in order to correct, amend or cure any ambiguity, inconsistency or defect or correct any typographical error or other manifest error in any Loan Document. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in connection with the formation or designation of the Operating Partnership in accordance with the requirements set forth in the definition thereof, this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents may be amended (or amended and restated) or otherwise supplemented or modified with the written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Borrower to permit the
Operating Partnership to become the successor Borrower hereunder and the REIT Entity to be released from all obligations under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Operating Partnership shall expressly assume all of
the Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party pursuant to a supplement or other documentation in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with the effect that all
references herein to the Borrower hereunder shall thereafter refer to the Operating Partnership, (ii) upon the Operating Partnership becoming the successor
Borrower, and the completion of the transfers
described in clause (e) of the definition of “Operating Partnership”, the REIT Entity shall be released from all of its obligations as the Borrower hereunder and under each of the
other Loan Documents to which it is a party, including, without limitation, the release of Collateral previously granted by the REIT Entity; (iii), and the Obligations shall thereafter be non-recourse to the REIT Entity (including in its capacity as a general partner or managing member of the Operating Partnership) except as provided in
the REIT Guaranty, if applicable; (iii) if the Operating Partnership is not already a Grantor (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), the Operating Partnership shall have, by
a supplement to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, become a Grantor (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) for all purposes under Loan Documents, (iv) each Loan
Party shall have, by a supplement to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, confirmed that its obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall apply to the Operating

to be duly perfected in accordance with all applicable Requirements of Law and (viii) such Up-REIT Transaction does not negatively impact the value of the Collateral and is not adverse to the interests of the Lenders.

performance and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (a “Proceeding”) regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a

with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Group Member or any of the Properties and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one primary legal counsel and, if reasonably necessary, one

affected Indemnitees similarly situated taken as a whole) in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against any Loan Party under any Loan Document (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the
“Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are (x) found by a final and
nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or material breach of any Loan Document by, such Indemnitee, or (y) related to any dispute solely among
the Indemnitees other than any dispute involving an Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as the Administrative Agent or Joint Lead Arranger or any similar role under this Agreement unless such dispute is related to any claims arising
out of or in connection with any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates and provided, further, that this Section 10.5(d) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages
arising from any non-Tax claim. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to
waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to

  
 94 

 
Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or
other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent any such damages are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted
from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. None of the parties hereto shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim for any indirect, special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages in connection with this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (except that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnity obligations under this Section 10.5). All amounts due under this
Section 10.5 shall be payable not later than 10 Business Days after receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be submitted to Director – Legal Department
(Telephone No. 310-282-8820) (Telecopy No. 310-282-8808), at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the
Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be liable
under this Agreement for any settlement made by any Indemnitee without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If any settlement is consummated with the Borrower’s written consent or if there is
a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such Proceeding, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in
accordance with the provisions hereof. The Borrower further agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect
of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnitee is an actual or potential party to such Proceeding) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes (a) an unconditional release of each Indemnitee from all
liability and obligations arising therefrom in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnitee and (b) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitee. 

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any affiliate of theany Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its
rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its
rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in
paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”), other than a natural person, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower, all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of: 

(A) the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of the Borrower
shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; and provided,
further, that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless the Borrower shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

  
 95 

 (B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed), provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Converted Term Loan to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. 

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the
entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitments or Loans, the amount of the Revolving Commitments or 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) shall not be less than $5,000,000 (or, in the case of a Converted Term Loan, shall not be less than $1,000,000) unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of
each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; 
 (B) (1) the parties to each assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and (2) the assigning Lender shall have paid in full any amounts owing by it to the Administrative Agent; and 

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire
in which the Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities)
will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws. 

For the purposes of this Section 10.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in
making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an
affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the
rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of
an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15
and 9.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such
rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as
an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (maintained in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c)(1)(i)) for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Commitments of, and principal 

  
 96 

 
amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and 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 Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing LenderLenders and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The
Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; provided that the information contained in the Register which is shared with each Lender
(other than the Administrative Agent and its affiliates) shall be limited to the entries with respect to such Lender including the Revolving Commitments of, or principal amount of and stated interest on the Loans owing to such Lender. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s
completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph
(b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded
in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of
such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain
unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing LenderLenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal
solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to
enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any
amendment, modification or waiver that (i) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 10.1 and (ii) directly and adversely affects such Participant. Each
Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Sections 2.16 and 2.17 with respect to any Participant. The Borrower
agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.14(f) (it being understood that the documentation
required under Section 2.14(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such
Participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.13 and 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Sections 2.13 or 2.14, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from an adoption of or any change in any
Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or direction (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date
hereof that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such
Participant shall be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register (maintained in accordance
with Treasury Regulations Sections 5f.103-1(c) 

  
 97 

 
and 1.871-14(c)(1)(i)) on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other
obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any
Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Revolving Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish
that such Revolving Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest
error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the
Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (d)
Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or
other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from
any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate
transactions of the type described in this paragraph (d). 
 10.7 Adjustments; Set-off.
(a) Except to the extent that this Agreement or a court order expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular facility, if any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall
receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it (other than in connection with an assignment made pursuant to Section 10.6), or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in
respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other
Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any
portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without notice to the Borrower,
any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Obligations becoming due and payable by the Borrower (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to apply to the payment
of such Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect,
absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender, any affiliate thereof or any of their respective branches or agencies to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower; provided that if any Defaulting
Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and, pending such payment, shall
be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing LenderLenders and the Lenders and (ii) the Defaulting Lender shall 

  
 98 

 
provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set-off; provided further, that to the extent prohibited by applicable law as described in the definition of “Excluded Swap Obligation,” no amounts received from, or set off with respect to,
any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Lender, provided
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application. 
 10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this
Agreement by email or facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

 10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire
agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to
the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York in the Borough of Manhattan, the courts of the United States for the

have been notified pursuant thereto;

securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in

Security Document, no Swap Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 10.14, any Guarantee Obligation or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to,
direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent
expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10.19 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made
