(including the conversion to IFRS as described below) on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Agent that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless

thereto, in each case, at the option of the Borrower Agent (the Borrower Agent’s election to exercise such option, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination for availability under any such basket or ratio and whether any
such action or transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default)) hereunder shall be deemed to be the date (the “LCT
Test Date”) the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into, and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Acquisition and any actions or transactions related thereto (including any
incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) and any related pro forma adjustments, the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such actions or consummate such transactions on the relevant LCT Test
Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions), such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions) shall be deemed to have been complied with (or satisfied) for all purposes (in
the case of Indebtedness, for example, whether such Indebtedness is committed, issued or incurred at the LCT Test Date or at any time thereafter); provided, that any such Limited Condition Acquisition (x) which is a Permitted Acquisition
shall be consummated prior to the date which is 180 days following such LCT Test Date or (y) which is an Investment (other than a Permitted Acquisition) shall be consummated prior to the date which is 90 days following such LCT Test Date (each
such period, a “LCT Period”). 

  
 61 

 For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower Agent has made an LCT Election, (1) if any
of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time during the applicable LCT Period have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in
any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets of the Borrower Agent or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Acquisition, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be
deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations, (2) if any related requirements and conditions (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default) for which compliance
or satisfaction was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time during the applicable LCT Period not have been complied with or satisfied (including due to the occurrence or continuation of an Default or Event of Default), such
requirements and conditions will not be deemed to have been failed to be complied with or satisfied (and such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed not to have occurred or be continuing, solely for purposes of determining whether the
applicable Limited Condition Acquisition and any actions or transactions related thereto (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) are permitted hereunder) and (3) in calculating the availability under any
ratio, test or basket in connection with any action or transaction unrelated to such Limited Condition Acquisition following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated, any such ratio,
test or basket shall be determined or tested giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and any actions or transactions related thereto (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) and any related pro
forma adjustments unless the definitive agreement (or notice) for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires (or is rescinded) without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition; provided that, with respect to this
clause (3), for the purposes of Sections 6.05 and 6.07 (other than Section 6.07(r)) only, Consolidated Net Income shall not include any Consolidated Net Income of or attributed to the target company or assets associated
with any such Limited Condition Acquisition unless and until the closing of such Limited Condition Acquisition shall have actually occurred. 

Section 1.08. Pro Forma Calculations(a) . 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, financial ratios and tests, including the Total Leverage Ratio, the Senior
Secured Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and compliance with covenants determined by reference to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (including any component definitions thereof) or Consolidated Total Assets, shall be calculated in the
manner prescribed by this Section 1.08; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Section 1.08, (i) when calculating any such ratio
or test for purposes of the incurrence of any Indebtedness, cash and Cash Equivalents resulting from the incurrence of any such Indebtedness shall be excluded from the pro forma calculation of any 

  
 62 

 
applicable ratio or test and (ii) for the purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Covenant as evidenced by a Compliance Certificate, any Subject Transaction occurring after the
last day of the relevant Test Period and prior to the delivery of the Compliance Certificate with respect thereto shall be disregarded. In addition, whenever a financial ratio or test is to be calculated on a pro forma basis, the reference to the
“Test Period” for purposes of calculating such financial ratio or test shall be deemed to be a reference to, and shall be based on, the most recently ended Test Period for which internal financial statements (which internal financial
statements, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include an unaudited consolidated balance sheet, unaudited consolidated cash flow statement and unaudited consolidated statement of income of the Borrower Agent and its Subsidiaries, to the extent such
financial statements are applicable with respect to the calculation of such financial ratio or test) of the Borrower Agent and its Subsidiaries are available (as determined in good faith by the Borrower Agent). 

(b) For purposes of calculating any financial ratio or test or compliance with any covenant determined by reference to
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets, Subject Transactions (with any incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith to be subject to clause (d) of this Section 1.08) that
(i) have been made during the applicable Test Period or (ii) if applicable as described in clause (a) above, have been made subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or substantially concurrently with the event for which the
calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Subject Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Total Assets and the component financial
definitions used therein attributable to any Subject Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period (or, in the case of Consolidated Total Assets, on the last day of the applicable Test Period). If since the beginning of
any applicable Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Subject Transaction
that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.08, then such financial ratio or test (or Consolidated Total Assets) shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this
Section 1.08. 
 (c) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Subject Transaction, the pro
forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower Agent and, in the case of any “Test Period” determined by reference to internal financial statements (which internal financial
statements, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include an unaudited consolidated balance sheet, unaudited consolidated cash flow statement and unaudited consolidated statement of income of the Borrower Agent and its Subsidiaries, to the extent such
financial statements are applicable with respect to the calculation of such financial ratio or test) of the Borrower Agent (as opposed to the financial statements most recently delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(b) or
Section 5.01(c), as set forth in a certificate of a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower Agent (with supporting calculations), and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of “run-rate” cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies resulting from or relating to, any Subject Transaction (including 

  
 63 

 
the Transactions) which is being given pro forma effect that have been realized or are projected in good faith to result (in the good faith determination of the Borrower Agent) (calculated on a
pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies had been realized on the first day of such period and as if such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies were realized during the entirety of
such period and “run-rate” means the full recurring projected benefit (including any savings or other benefits expected to result from the elimination of a public target’s Public Company
Costs) net of the amount of actual savings or other benefits realized during such period from such actions, and any such adjustments shall be included in the initial pro forma calculations of any financial ratios or tests (and in respect of
any subsequent pro forma calculations in which such Subject Transaction is given pro forma effect) and during any applicable subsequent Test Period in which the effects thereof are expected to be realized) relating to such Subject Transaction;
provided that (A) such amounts are reasonably identifiable and factually supportable in the good faith judgment of the Borrower Agent, (B) such amounts result from actions taken or actions with respect to which substantial steps
have been taken or are expected to be taken (in the good faith determination of the Borrower Agent) no later than eighteen (18) months after the date of such Subject Transaction, (C) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this clause
(c) to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (or any other components thereof), whether through a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period and
(D) the aggregate amount of any such amounts added back pursuant to this clause (c) (other than in connection with any mergers, business combinations, acquisitions or divestures) shall not exceed, together with any amounts added back pursuant
to clauses (x) and (xi) of the definition of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, 25.0% of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA in any four-Fiscal Quarter period (calculated before giving effect to any such
add-backs and adjustments). 
 (d) In the event that a Borrower or any Subsidiary
incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by purchase, redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment) any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid (other than any repayment from the proceeds of other
Indebtedness) under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid (and related commitments terminated) and not replaced), (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) subject to paragraph (a),
subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then such financial ratio or test shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence
(including the intended use of proceeds) or repayment of Indebtedness, in each case to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period. 

(e) If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such
Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is made had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any interest hedging
arrangements applicable to such Indebtedness); provided, in the case of repayment of any Indebtedness, to the extent actual interest related thereto was included during all or any portion of the applicable Test Period, the actual interest may
be used for the applicable portion of such Test Period 

  
 64 

 Section 1.09. Times of Day. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to
times of day shall be references to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable). 
 Section 1.10. Rounding. Any financial
ratios required to be satisfied in order for a specific action to be permitted under this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by
which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number). 

Section 1.11. Currency Generally. For purposes of determining compliance with Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 6.05
with respect to any amount of Indebtedness or Investment in a currency other than Dollars, no Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of changes in rates of currency exchange occurring after the time such Indebtedness or
Investment is incurred (so long as such Indebtedness or Investment, at the time incurred, made or acquired, was permitted hereunder). 

ARTICLE 2 
 THE CREDITS 

Section 2.01. Loans and Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein: 

(a) each ABL Revolving Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make ABL Revolving Loans in Dollars to the Borrowers from time to time
during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount requested by a Borrower (or the Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower) that will not result in (i) such Lender’s ABL Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s ABL
Commitment, or (ii) the total ABL Revolving Exposures exceeding the lesser of (x) the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments and (y) the ABL Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, the “ABL Line Cap”); and 

(b) each FILO Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make FILO Loans in Dollars to the Borrowers from time to time during the
Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount requested by a Borrower (or the Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower) that will not result in (i) such FILO Lender’s FILO Loans exceeding such FILO Lender’s FILO Commitment, or
(ii) the aggregate principal amount of FILO Loans outstanding exceeding the FILO Line Cap; 
 provided that, in each case, the Borrower Agent and
the Borrowers shall not request, and the ABL Revolving Lenders shall be under no obligation to fund, any ABL Revolving Loan unless the Borrowers have borrowed FILO Loans in an amount up to the full amount of the FILO Line Cap then in effect. All
FILO Credit Extensions shall be FILO Loans under the FILO Facility and all Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall constitute ABL Revolving Credit Extensions under the ABL Revolving Facility. 

  
 65 

 Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein
(including the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Protective Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.04), the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Loans. All Borrowers
shall be jointly and severally liable as borrowers for all Borrowings of each Borrower regardless of which Borrower received the proceeds thereof. 

Section 2.02. Loans and Borrowings. 

(a) Each Revolving Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the
Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class. Any Protective Advance and any Swingline Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 2.04 and 2.05, respectively.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, at any time that FILO Excess Availability is greater than zero, all Revolving Loans made to the Borrowers shall be made as FILO Loans by the FILO Lenders (without regard to minimum or
integral amounts for such Revolving Loans and irrespective of whether such Borrower requested a FILO Loan or an ABL Revolving Loan) until FILO Excess Availability is zero and, thereafter all such Revolving Loans shall be made as ABL Revolving Loans
(without regard to minimum or integral amounts for such Revolving Loans). 
 (b) Subject to
Section 2.14, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or LIBO Rate Loans as any Borrower (or the Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower) may request in accordance herewith. Each Swingline Loan and each
Protective Advance shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any LIBO Rate Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that (i) any exercise of such option shall
not affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) such LIBO Rate Loan shall be deemed to have been made and held by such Lender, and the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such
LIBO Rate Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender for the account of such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender and (iii) in exercising such option, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to minimize increased costs to the
Borrowers resulting therefrom (which obligation of such Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it otherwise
determines would be disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.15 shall apply); provided, further,
that any such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender shall not be entitled to any greater indemnification under Section 2.17 with respect to such LIBO Rate Loan than that which the applicable Lender was
entitled on the date on which such Loan was made (except in connection with any indemnification entitlement arising as a result of a Change in Law after the date on which such Loan was made). 

  
 66 

 (c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any LIBO Rate Borrowing,
such Borrowing shall comprise an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000. Each ABR Borrowing when made shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing
may be made in a lesser aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Aggregate Commitments that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e).
Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of ten different Interest Periods in effect for LIBO Rate Borrowings at any time outstanding.

 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower (or the Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower)
shall or shall be entitled to, request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date. 

(e) (x) ABL Revolving Loans to the Borrowers (other than Swingline Loans and Protective Advances) shall be made by the ABL
Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective ABL Revolving Commitments and (y) FILO Loans to the Borrowers shall be made by the FILO Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective FILO Commitments. 

(f) The failure of (x) any ABL Revolving Lender to make any ABL Revolving Loan (other than Swingline Loans) to the
Borrowers shall neither relieve any other ABL Revolving Lender of its obligation to fund its ABL Revolving Loan to the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement nor increase the obligation of any such other ABL Revolving Lender
and (y) any FILO Lender to make any FILO Loan to the Borrowers shall neither relieve any other FILO Lender of its obligation to fund its FILO Loan to the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement nor increase the obligation
of any such other FILO Lender. 
 Section 2.03. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing of Revolving Loans, a Borrower
(or the Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower) shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request either in writing by delivery of a Borrowing Request (by hand delivery, fax or other electronic transmission (including ”.pdf” or
”.tif”)) signed by such Borrower (or the Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower) or by telephone (a) in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the
proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing (including any such notice of an ABR Borrowing to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e)), not later than 12:00
noon, New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing (or, in each case, such later time as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent). Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by
hand delivery, fax or other electronic transmission (including “.pdf” or “.tif”) to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request signed by such Borrower (or the Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower). Each such
telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01: 

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; 

  
 67 

 (ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a LIBO Rate Borrowing; 

(iv) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABL Revolving Loan and/or FILO Loan; 

(v) in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the
definition of the term “Interest Period”; and 
 (vi) the location and number of the Borrowers’ account or any other
designated account(s) to which funds are to be disbursed (the “Funding Account”). 
 If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is
specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested LIBO Rate Borrowing, then the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s
duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s ABL Applicable Percentage or
FILO Applicable Percentage of the applicable Loans to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. 
 Section 2.04. Protective
Advances. 
 (a) Subject to the limitations set forth below (and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 4.02), the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrowers and the ABL Revolving Lenders, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion in the exercise of its commercially reasonable
judgment (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make ABL Revolving Loans to the Borrowers, on behalf of all ABL Revolving Lenders at any time that any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 has not been
satisfied or waived, which the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of,
repayment of the ABL Revolving Loans and other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses (including
costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 9.03) and other sums, in each case to the extent due and payable (and not in dispute by the Borrower Agent (acting in good faith)) under the Loan Documents (each such ABL
Revolving Loan, a “Protective Advance”). Any Protective Advance may be made in a principal amount that would cause the aggregate ABL Revolving Exposure to exceed the ABL Borrowing Base; provided that no Protective Advance may
be made to the extent that, after giving effect to such Protective Advance (together with the outstanding principal amount of any outstanding Protective Advances), the aggregate principal amount of Protective Advances outstanding hereunder would
exceed 5.0% of the ABL Borrowing Base as determined on the date of such proposed Protective Advance; and provided, further, that the aggregate amount of 

  
 68 

 
Credit Extensions (including the aggregate amount of outstanding Protective Advances) shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments. No Protective Advance may remain outstanding for more than 45
days without the consent of the Required Lenders unless a Liquidation is taking place. Each Protective Advance shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder.
The Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Required Lenders. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s
receipt thereof. The making of a Protective Advance on any one occasion shall not obligate the Administrative Agent to make any Protective Advance on any other occasion. At any time that the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 4.02 have been satisfied or waived, the Administrative Agent may request the ABL Revolving Lenders to make an ABL Revolving Loan to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time, the Administrative Agent may require
the ABL Revolving Lenders to fund their risk participations described in Section 2.04(b). 
 (b)
Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default), each ABL Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, unconditionally and
irrevocably to have purchased from the Administrative Agent without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance in proportion to its ABL Applicable Percentage. From and after the date, if any, on which
any ABL Revolving Lender is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such ABL Revolving Lender, such ABL Revolving Lender’s ABL Applicable Percentage
of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral (if any) received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Protective Advance. 

Section 2.05. Swingline Loans. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrowers
from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $40,000,000, or (ii) the total
ABL Revolving Exposures exceeding the ABL Line Cap; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Each Swingline Loan shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000
and not less than $500,000 or such lesser amount as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent. The Borrowers may request, and the Swingline Lender may make, a Swingline Loan notwithstanding that the Borrowers have not borrowed up to the full amount
of the FILO Line Cap at the time of such request. Any Swingline Loan advanced by the Swingline Lender is made in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Agreement. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. To request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower Agent shall notify the 

  
 69 

 
Swingline Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such request by telephone (confirmed by facsimile), not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline
Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice
received from the Borrowers. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrowers by means of a credit to the Funding Account or otherwise in accordance with the instructions of the Borrower Agent (including, in the case of
a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank) on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. 

(b) If any Swingline Loans are outstanding on any Business Day, the Swingline Lender may (or shall, with respect to any
Swingline Loans that have been outstanding for five Business Days) deliver written notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, requiring that the ABL Revolving Lenders make ABL Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans
on such Business Day in an amount equal to the amount of such Swingline Loans (the “Refunded Swingline Loans”) outstanding on such Business Day and based upon their ABL Applicable Percentages; provided that (i) promptly
upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each ABL Revolving Lender and (ii) the ABL Revolving Lenders shall not be required to make such ABL Revolving Loans to the extent (but only to the extent) that
such ABL Revolving Loans would cause the aggregate ABL Revolving Exposure to exceed the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments. Each ABL Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, promptly upon receipt of such notice from the
Administrative Agent to make such ABL Revolving Loans pursuant to this paragraph. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the proceeds of such ABL Revolving Loans made by the ABL Revolving Lenders shall be immediately delivered by
the Administrative Agent to the Swingline Lender and applied to repay a corresponding portion of the Refunded Swingline Loans and (ii) on the day such ABL Revolving Loans are made, such portion of the Refunded Swingline Loans paid shall no
longer be outstanding as Swingline Loans. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 2.02, if any Swingline Loans remain outstanding upon the termination of the ABL Revolving Commitments, and if ABL Excess Availability is greater
than zero, upon such termination of the ABL Revolving Commitments, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have sold to each ABL Revolving Lender, and each ABL Revolving Lender shall be deemed unconditionally and irrevocably to have so purchased
from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such ABL Revolving Lender’s ABL Applicable Percentage in the lesser of (i) such ABL Excess Availability and (ii) such
undivided interest and participation of each ABL Revolving Lender in such outstanding Swingline Loans. 
 (c) To the extent a
Swingline Lender is also a ABL Revolving Lender hereunder, in no event will the Swingline Lender, in its capacity as a ABL Revolving Lender, be required to purchase participations from itself or be required to fund any Refunded Swingline Loans;
rather if the settlement procedures described in clauses (b) or 

  
 70 

 
(c) above are invoked, then the Swingline Lender’s exposure with respect to its Pro Rata Share as a ABL Revolving Lender hereunder shall be deemed automatically converted to a participation
or Refunded Swingline Loan, as applicable, and its exposure in its capacity as the Swingline Lender correspondingly reduced by such conversion. 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.05 and any other provision to the
contrary in this Agreement, so long as and to the extent that FILO Excess Availability is greater than zero, Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender shall be refinanced by Revolving Loans made by FILO Lenders under the FILO Facility rather
than by ABL Revolving Lenders under the ABL Revolving Facility up to the amount of the then applicable FILO Excess Availability in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(b) as if the provisions of such
Section and each other provision of this Section 2.05 made reference to the FILO Lenders and applicable related FILO Facility specific terms rather than the ABL Revolving Lenders and applicable related ABL Revolving
Facility specific terms. 
 Section 2.06. Letters of Credit. 

(a) General. On and after the Closing Date, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a Letter of Credit
issued hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and for all purposes hereof will be deemed to have been issued on the Closing Date. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, (i) each Issuing Bank agrees, in each case in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.06, (A) from time to time on any Business Day during the period
from the Closing Date to but not including the fifth Business Day prior to the Maturity Date, upon the request of the Borrower Agent, to issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars only and issued on sight basis only for the account of any
Borrower (or any Subsidiary; provided that a Borrower will be the applicant) and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.06(b), and (B) to honor drafts under the
Letters of Credit, and (ii) the Lenders severally agree to participate in the Letters of Credit issued pursuant to Section 2.06(d). With respect to Commercial Letters of Credit, each Issuing Bank shall on the first
Business Day of each week submit to the Administrative Agent, by facsimile, a report detailing the daily aggregate total of Commercial Letters of Credit for the previous calendar week. 

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit
(or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower Agent shall deliver to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, at least two Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance (or
such shorter period as is acceptable to Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank), a request to issue a Letter of Credit, which shall specify that it is being issued under this Agreement, in the form of
Exhibit F attached hereto (each a “Letter of Credit Request”). To request an amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower Agent shall submit such a request to the applicable Issuing
Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least two Business 

  
 71 

 
Days in advance of the requested date of amendment, extension or renewal, identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the proposed date (which shall be a
Business Day) and other details of the amendment, extension or renewal. Requests for issuance, amendment, renewal or extension must be accompanied by such other information as shall be necessary to issue, amend, renew or extend such Letter of
Credit. If requested by Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower Agent also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the
event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower Agent to, or entered into by the applicable Borrower
with, the applicable Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and on issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
of each Letter of Credit the Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall, subject to Sections 2.09(b) and
2.23(f), not exceed $50,000,000, and (ii) the aggregate amount of Credit Extensions shall not exceed the ABL Line Cap. Promptly after the delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with
respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Bank will also deliver to the Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. Upon receipt of such Letter of Credit or
amendment, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders, in writing, of such Letter of Credit or amendment, and if so requested by a Lender, the Administrative Agent will provide such Lender with copies of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, no Issuing Bank shall be obligated to issue or modify any Letter of Credit if, immediately after giving effect thereto, the outstanding LC Exposure in respect of all Letters
of Credit issued by such Person and its Affiliates would exceed such Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank Sublimit. Without limiting the foregoing and without affecting the limitations contained herein, it is understood and agreed that the Borrower may
from time to time request that an Issuing Bank issue Letters of Credit in excess of its individual Issuing Bank Sublimit in effect at the time of such request, and each Issuing Bank agrees to consider any such request in good faith. Any Letter of
Credit so issued by an Issuing Bank in excess of its individual Issuing Bank Sublimit then in effect shall nonetheless constitute a Letter of Credit for all purposes of the Credit Agreement, and shall not affect the Issuing Bank Sublimit of any
other Issuing Bank, subject to the limitations on the aggregate LC Exposure set forth in clause (i) of this Section 2.06(b). 

(c) Expiration Date. 

(i) Each Standby Letter of Credit shall expire not later than the earlier of (A) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such
Letter of Credit and (B) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided that any Standby Letter of Credit may provide for the automatic extension thereof for any number of additional periods each of up to one
year in duration (none of which, in any event, shall extend beyond the date referred to in clause (B) of this paragraph (c)(i) unless Cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank
thereof). 

  
 72 

 (ii) Each Commercial Letter of Credit shall expire on the earlier of (A) 180 days after the
date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (B) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. 

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount
thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the ABL Revolving Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each ABL Revolving Lender, and each ABL Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing
Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such ABL Revolving Lender’s ABL Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each
ABL Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such ABL Revolving Lender’s ABL Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such
Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrowers on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrowers for any reason. Each ABL Revolving Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal
or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the ABL Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding
or reduction whatsoever. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 2.02, if any Letters of Credit remain outstanding upon the termination of the ABL Revolving Commitments, to the extent the ABL Revolving Commitments exceed the
aggregate ABL Revolving Exposure upon such termination of the ABL Revolving Commitments, the Issuing Banks shall be deemed to have sold to each ABL Revolving Lender, and each ABL Revolving Lender shall be deemed unconditionally and irrevocably to
have so purchased from the Issuing Banks, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such ABL Revolving Lender’s ABL Applicable Percentage in the lesser of (i) such ABL Excess Availability and
(ii) such undivided interest and participation of each Lender in such outstanding Letters of Credit, each drawing thereunder and the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect thereto. Any action
taken or omitted by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with a Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for such Issuing Bank any resulting liability to any ABL Revolving
Lender. 
 (e) Reimbursement. If the applicable Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of
Credit, the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of Commercial Letters of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank) an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New
York City time, on the Business Day immediately 

  
 73 

 
following the date the Borrower Agent receives notice under paragraph (g) of this Section of such LC Disbursement (or, if such notice is received less than two hours prior to the
deadline for requesting ABR Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.03, on the second Business Day immediately following the date the Borrower Agent receives such notice); provided that the Borrowers (or the Borrower Agent
on behalf of Borrower) may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an
equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the
Administrative Agent shall notify each ABL Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such ABL Revolving Lender’s ABL Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following
receipt of such notice, each ABL Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its ABL Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrowers, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect
to Loans made by such ABL Revolving Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the ABL Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable
Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the ABL Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to
the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that ABL Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such ABL Revolving Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. 

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph
(e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of
validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any
statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or
(iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the
Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of
any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any
draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control
of such Issuing Bank; provided  

  
 74 

 
that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse such Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect
of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under
a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of applicable Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear
on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation,
regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all
documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of such demand for payment and whether
such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the ABL Revolving
Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC
Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to
but excluding the date that the Borrowers reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Loans that are ABR Loans; provided that if the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the
date of payment by any ABL Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such ABL Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment. 

(i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced with the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed) at any time by written agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the
time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such

  
 75 

 
replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued
thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Banks, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the
replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and
issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 (j) Cash
Collateralization. 
 (i) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, then on the Business Day that the Borrower Agent
receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of Cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph (j), upon such demand, the Borrowers shall deposit, in an interest-bearing account with the
Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the ABL Revolving Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in Cash equal to 100.0% of the LC Exposure as of such date; provided that
the obligation to deposit such Cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the
Borrowers described in Section 7.01(f) or (g). 
 (ii) Any such deposit under clause (i) above
shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph (j). The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control,
including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account and the Borrowers hereby grant the Administrative Agent a security interest in the LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which
investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be
applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the
Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of the Required Lenders), be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations. If the Borrowers are required to provide an
amount of Cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (together with all interest and other earnings with respect thereto, to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned promptly to the
Borrowers but in no event later than three Business Days, after such Event of Default has been cured or waived. 

  
 76 

 (k) Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent. Unless
otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or
recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements
and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit
issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC
Disbursement, the date and amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which any Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount
of such LC Disbursement, and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. 

Section 2.07. Funding of Borrowings. 

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately
available funds by 2:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders in an amount equal to (x) with respect to ABL Revolving Loans, such ABL
Revolving Lender’s respective ABL Applicable Percentage and (y) with respect to FILO Loans, such FILO Lender’s respective FILO Applicable Percentage; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in
Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrowers by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the Funding Account or as otherwise directed by the Borrowers (or the
Borrower Agent on behalf of Borrowers); provided that ABR Revolving Loans (or to the extent applicable, FILO Loans) made to finance the reimbursement of (i) an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e)
shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank and (ii) a Protective Advance shall be retained by the Administrative Agent to be applied as contemplated by Section 2.04 (and the
Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrowers a reasonably detailed accounting of such application). 
 (b) Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may
assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a
Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such
corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater
of the Federal Funds 

  
 77 

 
Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate
applicable to Loans comprising such Borrowing at such time. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing and the Borrowers’ obligation to repay
the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.07(b) shall cease. If the Borrowers pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, the amount so paid shall constitute a repayment of such
Borrowing by such amount. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Borrower or any other Loan Party may have against any
Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. 
 Section 2.08. Type; Interest Elections. 

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a LIBO Rate
Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrowers may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, may
elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrowers may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders,
based upon their respective ABL Applicable Percentages and FILO Applicable Percentages and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings or Protective Advances,
which may not be converted or continued. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrowers (or the Borrower
Agent on behalf of Borrowers) shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election either delivered in writing (by hand delivery, fax or other electronic transmission (including, “.pdf” or “.tif”)) or by telephone by the time
that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrowers were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic
Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, fax or other electronic transmission (including, “.pdf” or “.tif”) to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election
Request signed by the Borrower Agent. 
 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the
following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election
Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii),
(iv) and (v) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made
pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 

  
 78 

 (iii) whether the applicable Loans are ABL Revolving Loans and/or FILO Loans; 

(iv) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a LIBO Rate Borrowing; and 

(v) if the resulting Borrowing is a LIBO Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election,
which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 
 If any such Interest Election Request requests a LIBO
Rate Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the
details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) If the Borrower Agent fails to deliver
a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a LIBO Rate Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be
converted to a LIBO Rate Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so
notifies the Borrower Agent, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a LIBO Rate Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each LIBO Rate Borrowing shall be converted to
an ABR Borrowing at the end of the then-current Interest Period applicable thereto. 
 Section 2.09. Termination and Reduction of
Commitments. 
 (a) Unless previously terminated, all Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. 

(b) Upon delivering the notice required by Section 2.09(e), the Borrowers may at any time terminate
the Commitments upon (i) the payment in full in Cash of all outstanding Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, (ii) the cancellation and return of all outstanding Letters of Credit (or alternatively, with respect to each
such Letter of Credit, the furnishing to the Administrative Agent of a Cash deposit (or if reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, a backup standby letter of credit) equal to 100.0% of the LC Exposure as of such date) and (iii) the
payment in full of all accrued and unpaid fees and all reimbursable expenses and other Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest (if any) thereon. 

  
 79 

 (c) Upon delivering the notice required by
Section 2.09(e), the Borrowers may from time to time reduce the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than
$1,000,000 and (ii) the Borrowers shall not reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.10 or Section 2.11,
the sum of the Revolving Exposures would exceed the Total Line Cap. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a
termination of FILO Commitments, in the event that any FILO Loans are outstanding at the time of a termination of the FILO Commitments, the prepayment of such FILO Loans and termination of such FILO Commitments shall be subject to the satisfaction
of the Payment Conditions immediately prior to, and immediately after, giving effect to such termination and prepayment. 

(e) The Borrower Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under
paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the
Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower Agent pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the
Borrower Agent may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower Agent (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date)
if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be permanent. Upon any reduction of (x) the ABL Revolving Commitments, the ABL Revolving
Commitment of each ABL Revolving Lender shall be reduced by such ABL Revolving Lender’s ABL Applicable Percentage of such reduction amount and (y) the FILO Commitments, the FILO Commitment of each FILO Lender shall be reduced by such FILO
Lender’s FILO Applicable Percentage of such reduction amount. 
 Section 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

(a) The Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay (on a joint and several basis) (i) to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the applicable Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent the then unpaid amount of each Protective Advance on the earliest of (A) the Maturity Date
of the ABL Revolving Facility, (B) within three Business Days following receipt of written demand therefor by the Administrative Agent and (C) 45 days (or such longer period as may be consented to by Required Lenders) after such Protective
Advance is made, (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the Maturity Date of the ABL Revolving Facility; provided that on each date that a Revolving Loan is made while any Protective
Advance is outstanding, the Borrowers shall repay all Protective Advances with the proceeds of such ABL Revolving Loan then outstanding. On the Maturity Date of the ABL Revolving Facility, the Borrowers shall cancel and return all outstanding
Letters of 

  
 80 

 
Credit (or alternatively, with respect to each such Letter of Credit, furnish to the Administrative Agent a Cash deposit (or if reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, a backup
standby letter of credit) equal to 100.0% of the LC Exposure as of such date) and make payment in full in Cash of all accrued and unpaid fees and all reimbursable expenses and other Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest (if
any) thereon. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the
indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 9.05(b)(iv) in which it shall record
(i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers
to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(d) Subject to 9.05(b)(iv), the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of
this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein (absent manifest error); provided that, the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any
manifest error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, further, that in the event of any inconsistency between the accounts
maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section and any Lender’s records, the accounts of the Administrative Agent shall govern. 

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a Promissory Note. In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare,
execute and deliver to such Lender a Promissory Note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Promissory Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to
Section 9.05) be represented by one or more Promissory Notes in such form payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns. 

Section 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. 

(a) Upon prior notice in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section, the Borrowers shall have the right at any
time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.16). Prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.11(a), first, shall be
applied ratably to the Swingline Loans and to outstanding LC Disbursements, second, shall be applied ratably to the outstanding Loans (other than FILO Loans) and third, shall be applied ratably to the outstanding FILO Loans. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 2.11(a), 

  
 81 

 
except as provided in Section 2.09 or Sections 2.11(b), only if the FILO Prepayment Conditions are met may the Borrowers repay or prepay amounts owed with respect
to the FILO Loans; provided, however, that, any such repayment or prepayment shall not reduce or terminate the FILO Commitments except to the extent provided in such Sections. 

(b) Except for Protective Advances permitted under Section 2.04, in the event that the aggregate
amount of the Revolving Exposure of the Lenders exceeds the Borrowing Base, the Borrower Agent shall (i) first prepay the ABL Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans and/or reduce LC Exposure, in an aggregate amount equal to such excess by taking
any of the following actions as it shall determine at its sole discretion: (A) prepayment of ABL Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans or (B) with respect to such excess L/C Exposure, deposit of Cash in the LC Collateral Account or
“backstopping” or replacement of such Letters of Credit, in each case, in an amount equal to 100.0% of such excess L/C Exposure (but in any event, such payments of ABL Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans and such deposits of Cash or
“backstopping” or replacements of Letters of Credit shall in the aggregate be equal to such excess) and (ii) if, after giving effect to the actions taken in Section 2.11(b)(i) such deficiency has not been eliminated, prepay the
FILO Loans in an amount necessary to eliminate such deficiency; provided that (1) for the purposes of calculating the ABL Borrowing Base solely for purposes of this Section 2.11(b), the FILO Reserve shall be deemed to be zero,
(2) if the circumstances described in this clause (b) are the result of the imposition of or increase in a Reserve, the Borrowers shall not be required to make the initial prepayment or deposit until the fifth Business Day following
the date on which Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Agent of such imposition or increase and (3) the LC Exposure may not be reduced to less than zero; and 

(c) At all times after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Event and notification thereof by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower Agent (subject to the provisions of Section 2.18(b) and to the terms of the Pledge and Security Agreement), on each Business Day, at or before 1:00 p.m., New York City time, the
Administrative Agent shall apply all immediately available funds credited to the Administrative Agent Account or otherwise received by Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations or Secured Obligations (in the case of clause sixth
below), first to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders constituting Obligations, pro rata, second to pay interest due and payable in respect of any
ABL Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans), any FILO Loans and any Protective Advances that may be outstanding, pro rata, third to prepay the principal of any Protective Advances that may be outstanding, pro rata, fourth to prepay
the principal of the ABL Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) and to Cash collateralize at 100.0% of the aggregate face amount of outstanding LC Exposure, pro rata, fifth, to pay or prepay the principal of the FILO Loans, sixth,
to pay or prepay Secured Obligations in connection with Banking Services Obligations or Secured Hedging Obligations, pro rata, seventh, to pay any other Secured Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the Borrowers on a
pro rata basis and eighth, as the Borrowers may direct. 

  
 82 

 (d) [Reserved]. 

(e) The Borrower Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline
Lender) by telephone (confirmed in writing) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the
case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of prepayment, or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00
p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of
prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in
accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall
be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02(c). Each prepayment of a Borrowing pursuant to this Section shall be applied as provided in
paragraph (a) of this Section. 
 Section 2.12. Fees. 

(a) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment
fee, which shall accrue at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the Available Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Closing Date through the date on which such Lender’s Commitments
terminate. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the first day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day) of each January, April, July and October for the quarterly period then ended and on the date
on which the Commitments terminate. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the last day but excluding the first day).    For
purposes of calculating the commitment fees only, no portion of the Commitments shall be deemed utilized as a result of outstanding Swingline Loans. 

(b) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each ABL Revolving
Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Standby Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to LIBO Rate Loans that are ABL Revolving Loans on the daily
amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure in respect of Standby Letters of Credit (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), during the period from and including the Closing Date through the later of the date on
which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure in respect of Standby Letters of Credit, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each ABL Revolving Lender a
participation fee 

  
 83 

 
with respect to its participations in Commercial Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to LIBO Rate Loans that are ABL
Revolving Loans, on the daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure in respect of Commercial Letters of Credit (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), during the period from and including the Closing Date
through the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such ABL Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure in respect of Commercial Letters of Credit, and (iii) to each Issuing Bank, for its
own account, a fronting fee, in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank for the period from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit through the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (or if terminated on an earlier date,
to the termination date of such Letter of Credit), computed at a rate equal to 0.125% per annum of the daily stated amount of such Letter of Credit, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued to but excluding the first day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day) of each January,
April, July and October shall be payable in arrears for the quarterly period then ended on the first day of such calendar quarter; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees
accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 30 days after demand (accompanied by reasonable back-up documentation therefor). All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. 

(c) The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the agency and
administration fees set forth in the Fee Letter, payable in the amounts and at the times specified therein or as so otherwise agreed upon by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, or such agency fees as may otherwise be separately agreed upon
by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing. 
 (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due,
in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be
refundable under any circumstances except as otherwise provided in the Fee Letter. 
 Section 2.13. Interest. 

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan and each Protective Advance) shall bear interest at
the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 

  
 84 

 (b) The Loans comprising each LIBO Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at the
Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (c)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee payable by the Borrowers hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal or interest of any Loan, 2.00% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding
paragraphs of this Section, or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to Loans that are ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. 

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination
of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR
Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any LIBO Rate Loan prior to
the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to
the Alternate Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and, in each case, shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable
Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

Section 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. 

(a) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Borrowing: 

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do
not exist for ascertaining, (including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate) the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable (including, without limitation, because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a
current basis), for such Interest Period; or 
 (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate
or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for the applicable Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or any Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 

  
 85 

 
then the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower Agent and the Lenders by telephone or electronic communication as provided in Section 9.01 as promptly as
practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Agent and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, which the Administrative Agent agrees promptly to do, (i) any Interest
Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a LIBO Rate Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing on the last day of the then current Interest
Period applicable thereto, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a LIBO Rate Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing. 

(b) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that
(i) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) above have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the
LIBO Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans,
then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans
in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 9.02, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of
such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b)
(but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.14(b), only to the extent the LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis),
(x) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a LIBO Rate Borrowing shall be ineffective and (y) if any Borrowing Request requests a LIBO Rate Borrowing, such Borrowing
shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement. 

Section 2.15. Increased Costs. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account
of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or Issuing Bank; or 

  
 86 

 (ii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other
condition affecting this Agreement or LIBO Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the
foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any LIBO Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of
participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in an amount deemed by such Lender or
Issuing Bank, as applicable, to be material, then, within 30 days after the Borrower’s receipt of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable,
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered (except for any Taxes, which shall be dealt exclusively pursuant to
Section 2.17); provided that the Borrowers shall not be liable for such compensation if (x) the relevant Change in Law occurs on a date prior to the date such Lender becomes a party hereto, (y) the Lender
invokes Section 2.20 or (z) such circumstances in clause (ii) above resulting from a market disruption are not generally affecting the banking market. 

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding liquidity or capital requirements has or would
have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of, or
the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such
Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law other than due to Taxes, which shall be dealt exclusively pursuant to Section 2.17 (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such
Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then within 30 days of receipt by the Borrowers of the certificate contemplated by
paragraph (c) of this Section the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing
Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting
forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which
such amount or amounts was determined shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 87 

 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank
pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

Section 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the conversion or prepayment of any principal of any LIBO Rate Loan
other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration or otherwise), (b) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBO Rate Loan on the date or in the
amount specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (c) the assignment of any LIBO Rate Loan of any Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to
Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (other than loss of profit). A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount
or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section and the basis therefor and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts was determined shall be delivered to the Borrowers and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof. 

Section 2.17. Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any withholding agent shall be required to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such payments, then (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum
payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the Administrative Agent, Lender or any Issuing Bank (as applicable)
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholding for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes been made, (ii) such withholding agent shall make such deductions or withholding and (iii) such
withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If at any time a Loan Party is required by applicable law to make any deduction or withholding from any
sum payable hereunder, such Loan Party shall promptly notify the relevant Lender, Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank upon becoming aware of the same. In addition, each Lender, the Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify a Loan
Party upon becoming aware of any circumstances as a result of which a Loan Party is or would be required to make any deduction or withholding from any sum payable hereunder. 

  
 88 

 (b) Without duplication of other amounts paid by the Borrower under this
Section 2.17, the Loan Parties shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(c) Each Loan Party shall indemnify Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within ten days after written
demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Loan Party
hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest payable or paid by such Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank and reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that if the Loan Party reasonably
believes that such Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Loan Party to obtain a refund of such Taxes (which shall be repaid to
the Loan Party in accordance with Section 2.17(f) so long as such efforts would not, in the sole determination of Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank result in any additional costs, expenses or risks or be
otherwise disadvantageous to it; provided, further, that the Loan Party shall not be required to compensate Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.17 for any amounts incurred in any
fiscal year for which Administrative Agent or such Lender does not furnish notice of such claim within six months from the end of such fiscal year; provided, further, that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a
retroactive effect (e.g., in connection with the audit of a prior tax year), then the beginning of such six month period shall be extended to include such period of retroactive effect. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability
delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender or an Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority
pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or
other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Status of Lenders. Any
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 Agent and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the
Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent 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 Agent or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent or the Administrative
Agent as will enable the Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. 

  
 89 

 (i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower Agent 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 Agent or the Administrative Agent), two executed originals of IRS Form
W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower Agent and the
Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the
Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (1) in the case of a Foreign
Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with
respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or 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 Foreign 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 L-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a
“10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower Agent or a Subsidiary 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 W-8BEN-E; or 

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form
W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-2 or Exhibit L-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification 

  
 90 

 
documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio
interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-4 on behalf of each such partner; 

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

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if
such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Agent and the Administrative
Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent 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 Agent and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine
that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA
after the date of this Agreement. 
 (E) On or before the date the Administrative Agent becomes a party to this Agreement,
the Administrative Agent shall provide to the Borrower Agent, two duly-signed, properly completed copies of the documentation prescribed in clause (i) or (ii) below, as applicable (together with all required attachments thereto): (i) IRS Form W-9 or any successor thereto, or (ii) (A) IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto, and (B) with respect to payments received on account of any Lender, a U.S. branch
withholding certificate on IRS Form W-8IMY or any successor thereto evidencing its agreement with the Borrower Agent to be treated as a U.S. Person for U.S. federal withholding purposes. At any time
thereafter, the Administrative Agent shall provide updated documentation previously provided (or a successor form thereto) when any documentation previously delivered has expired or become obsolete or invalid or otherwise upon the reasonable request
of the Borrower Agent. 

  
 91 

 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, provide such successor form, or promptly notify the Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(f) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which such Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such
refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net
of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Administrative
Agent or such Lender in good faith in its reasonable discretion, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the
Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the Administrative Agent or a Lender be required to pay any amount
to a Loan Party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or Lender in a less favorable net after Tax position than the Administrative Agent or Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to
indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or
any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to such Loan Party or any other Person. 

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the
resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

Section 2.18. Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs. 

(a) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of
principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 1:30 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in
immediately available funds, without set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.17) or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of
the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the
Borrowers 

  
 92 

 
by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to the applicable Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to
Sections 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the
appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Except as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Swingline Loans, in Section 2.04 with respect to Protective Advances and in
Section 2.20, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans of a given Class, each payment of the commitment fees, each reduction of the Commitments and each
conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type (and of the same Class) shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective ABL Applicable Percentages and FILO Applicable
Percentages, as the case may be. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the
next higher or lower whole dollar amount. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent
shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment. At all times
that a Cash Dominion Event has occurred and is continuing, solely for purposes of determining the amount of Loans available for borrowing purposes, checks and Cash or other immediately available funds from collections of items of payment and
proceeds of any Collateral shall be applied in whole or in part against the Obligations, on the day of receipt, subject to actual collection. 

(b) Subject in all respects to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, all proceeds of Collateral received by the
Administrative Agent after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and all or any portion of the Loans shall have been accelerated hereunder pursuant to Section 7.01, shall upon election by the Administrative
Agent or at the direction of the Required Lenders be applied, first, on a pro rata basis, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank from the Borrowers constituting
Obligations, second, on a pro rata basis, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrowers constituting Obligations, third, to pay interest due and payable in respect of any ABL Revolving Loans, any
Swingline Loans and any Protective Advances, on a pro rata basis, fourth, to pay the principal of the Protective Advances, on a pro rata basis, fifth, to prepay principal on the ABL Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and unreimbursed
LC Disbursements, on a pro rata basis, sixth, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to 100.0% of the LC Exposure on such date, to be held in the LC Collateral Account as Cash collateral for such Obligations, on a pro rata basis,
seventh, to pay any amounts owing with respect to Banking Services Obligations to the extent they constitute Secured Obligations and Secured Hedging Obligations, on a pro rata basis, to the extent a Reserve has been established in such
amounts, eighth, to pay the interest due and payable in respect of any FILO Loans, ninth, to pay or prepay the 

  
 93 

 
principal of the FILO Loans, tenth, to pay any amounts owing with respect to Banking Services Obligations to the extent they constitute Secured Obligations and Secured Hedging Obligations,
on a pro rata basis, to the extent such amounts have not been paid pursuant to clause seventh above, eleventh, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the Borrowers on a
pro rata basis, twelfth, as provided for under the Intercreditor Agreement, and thirteenth, to the Borrowers or as the Borrowers shall direct. Notwithstanding the foregoing amounts received from any Loan Party shall not be applied to
any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Loan Party. 
 (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans or Protective Advances resulting
in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans or Protective Advances and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any
other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for Cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and sub-participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans and
Protective Advances of other Lenders at such time outstanding to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on
their respective Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans and Protective Advances; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is
recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the
Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC
Disbursements, Swingline Loans or Protective Advances to any permitted assignee or participant, including any payments made or deemed made in connection with Sections 2.23 and 9.02(c). The Borrowers consent to the
foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrowers rights of
set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. 

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers (or the Borrower Agent on behalf of
Borrowers) prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the
Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact
made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the 

  
 94 

 
applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon,
for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
 (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment
required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.07(b), Section 2.18(c) or Section 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any
contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 

Section 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15 or such Lender determines it can no longer
make or maintain LIBO Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.20, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its
offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as applicable, in
the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) If (i) any Lender requests
compensation under Section 2.15 or such Lender determines it can no longer make or maintain LIBO Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.20, (ii) if the Borrowers are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes
or any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, (iii) if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or (iv) if in connection with any proposed
amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby” with respect to which Required Lender consent has been obtained, any Lender is a
non-consenting Lender (each such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such
Lender and the Administrative Agent, (x) so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing, terminate the Commitments of such Lender and repay all
Obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date or (y) replace such Lender by requiring such Lender to assign and delegate (and such Lender shall be
obligated to assign and delegate), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.05), all its interests, 

  
 95 

 
rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that
(i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans and Protective Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all
other amounts payable to it hereunder and (ii) in the case of any assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iii) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law. A Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) shall not be required
to make any such assignment and delegation, and the Borrowers may not terminate the Commitments of such Lender, if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such
assignment and delegation cease to apply. Nothing in this Section 2.19 shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that the Borrowers may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender. Each Lender agrees that if it is
replaced pursuant to Section 2.19, it shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption to evidence such sale and purchase and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Promissory Note
(if the assigning Lender’s Loans are evidenced by Promissory Notes) subject to such Assignment and Assumption; provided that the failure of any Lender replaced pursuant to this Section 2.19 to execute an
Assignment and Assumption or deliver such Promissory Notes shall not render such sale and purchase (and the corresponding assignment) invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register and the Promissory Notes shall be deemed cancelled
upon such failure. 
 Section 2.20. Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful,
or that any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Closing Date that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain any LIBO Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers (or the
Borrower Agent on behalf of Borrowers) through the Administrative Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue LIBO Rate Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to LIBO Rate Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the
Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), either convert
all LIBO Rate Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not
lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different lending office if such designation
will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the determination of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to it. 

  
 96 

 Section 2.21. Cash Receipts. 

(a) Annexed hereto as Schedule 2.21(a) is a schedule of all DDAs, that, to the knowledge of the
Responsible Officers of the Loan Parties, are maintained by the Loan Parties as of the Closing Date, which Schedule includes, with respect to each depository, in each case as of the Closing Date, (i) the name and address of such depository and
(ii) the account number(s) maintained with such depository. 
 (b) Annexed hereto as
Schedule 2.21(b) is a list describing all arrangements to which any Loan Party is a party as of the Closing Date with respect to the payment to such Loan Party of the proceeds of all credit card charges for sales by such
Loan Party. 
 (c) Each Loan Party shall (within 90 days after the Closing Date (or such longer period as the Administrative
Agent may agree in its sole discretion)) (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent notifications, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, executed on behalf of such Loan Party and addressed to such Loan Party’s credit card
clearinghouses and processors (each, a “Credit Card Notification”); (ii) instruct each depository institution for a DDA to cause all amounts on deposit and available at the close of each Business Day in such DDA (net of such minimum
balance, not to exceed $20,000, as may be required to be maintained in the subject DDA by the depository institution at which such DDA is maintained), to be swept to one of the Loan Parties’ concentration accounts no less frequently than on a
daily basis, such instructions to be irrevocable unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent; and (iv) enter into a blocked account agreement with respect to each of the Loan Parties’ concentration accounts (each, a
“Blocked Account Agreement”), in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with the Administrative Agent and any bank with which such Loan Party maintains a concentration account into which the DDAs are swept
(collectively, the “Blocked Accounts”), which concentration accounts as of the Closing Date are listed on Schedule 2.21(c) annexed hereto. Any such Blocked Account Agreement with respect to a concentration
account acquired by a Loan Party in connection with an Investment permitted hereunder or otherwise acquired after the Closing Date, must be entered into so long as no Cash Dominion Event exists, within 90 days, and at any time a Cash Dominion Event
exists, within ten days, in each case following the date such concentration account is acquired (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion). 

(d) Each Credit Card Notification and Blocked Account Agreement shall require, after the delivery of notice of a Cash Dominion
Event from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower Agent and the other parties to such instrument or agreement (which the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, provide upon its becoming aware of such a Cash
Dominion Event), the ACH or wire transfer no less frequently than once per Business Day (unless the Termination Date shall have occurred), of all available Cash balances and Cash receipts, including the then contents or then entire ledger balance of
each Blocked Account (net of such minimum balance, not to exceed $500,000 per account or $3,000,000 in the aggregate for all such accounts (the “Minimum Balance Amount”), as may be required to be maintained in the subject Blocked
Account by the bank at which such Blocked Account is maintained (the “Required Minimum Balances”), to an account maintained by the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent Account”). All amounts received in
the Administrative Agent Account shall be applied (and allocated) by the Administrative Agent in 

  
 97 

 
accordance with Section 2.11(c); provided that if the circumstances described in Section 2.18(b) are applicable, all such amounts shall
be applied in accordance with such Section 2.18(b). Each Loan Party agrees that it will not cause any proceeds of any Blocked Account to be otherwise redirected. At all times Cash and Cash Equivalents shall only be held in
Blocked Accounts, DDAs or Excluded Accounts, and at any time a Cash Dominion Event exists and is continuing, such amounts shall be swept from the Blocked Accounts to the Administrative Agent Account as provided herein, except for Required Minimum
Balances in an amount not to exceed the Minimum Balance Amount. 
 (e) The Loan Parties may close DDAs or Blocked Accounts
and/or open new DDAs or Blocked Accounts, subject (in the case of opening any new Blocked Accounts) to the contemporaneous (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) execution and delivery to the
Administrative Agent of a Blocked Account Agreement consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.21 and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Unless consented to in writing by the Administrative
Agent, the Loan Parties shall not enter into any agreements with credit card clearing houses or processors other than the ones listed on Schedule 2.21(b) unless contemporaneously therewith (or such longer period as the
Administrative Agent may agree), a Credit Card Notification is executed and delivered to the applicable credit card clearing house and/or processor and a copy thereof is delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Agent delivers a
supplement to Schedule 2.21(b) describing such arrangement at the time of delivery of the Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 5.01(d) for the fiscal period in which such Credit Card Notification was executed.

 (f) The Administrative Agent Account shall at all times be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative
Agent. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) such Loan Party has no right of withdrawal from the Administrative Agent Account, (ii) the funds on deposit in the Administrative Agent Account shall at all times continue to
be collateral security for all of the Secured Obligations, and (iii) the funds on deposit in the Administrative Agent Account shall be applied as provided in this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event that, notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 2.21, any Loan Party receives or otherwise has dominion and control of any proceeds or collections required to be transferred to the Administrative Agent Account pursuant to
Section 2.21(d), such proceeds and collections shall be held in trust by such Loan Party for the Administrative Agent, and shall promptly be deposited into the Administrative Agent Account or dealt with in such other
fashion as such Loan Party may be instructed by the Administrative Agent. 
 (g) Upon a Cash Dominion Event and for so long
as the same is continuing, Administrative Agent shall direct that all amounts in the Blocked Accounts be paid to the Administrative Agent Account. So long as no Cash Dominion Event has occurred and is continuing in respect of which the
Administrative Agent has delivered notice thereof as contemplated by paragraph (d) of this Section 2.21, the Loan Parties may direct, and shall have sole control over, the manner of disposition of funds in the
Blocked Accounts. 

  
 98 

 (h) Any amounts held or received in the Administrative Agent Account
(including all interest and other earnings with respect thereto, if any) at any time (i) when the Termination Date has occurred or (iii) all Events of Default and Cash Dominion Events have been cured, shall (subject in the case of
clause (i) to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement) be remitted to an account of the Borrowers designated by the Borrowers. 

(i) Following the occurrence of a Cash Dominion Event (other than by reason of an Event of Default pursuant to
Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g)), in the event that a Blocked Account or the Administrative Agent Account contains Trust Funds (other than payroll and employee benefit payments in the nature of
discretionary contributions), the Borrower Agent (acting in good faith) may, within 30 days after such Trust Funds are received in such Blocked Account or Administrative Agent Account, deliver to the Administrative Agent a Trust Fund
Certificate (together with such supporting information as may be requested by the Administrative Agent). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, within five Business Days following receipt of a Trust Fund
Certificate, the Administrative Agent shall remit the lesser of (a) such Trust Funds specified in the Trust Fund Certificate or (b) the Excess Availability on the date of such remittance, at the option of the Administrative Agent to
(x) the applicable Loan Party or (y) directly to the applicable Person entitled to such Trust Funds as specified in the Trust Fund Certificate on behalf of the applicable Loan Party. If any such amounts are remitted to a Loan Party,
such Loan Party shall apply all such funds solely for the purposes set forth in the applicable Trust Fund Certificate on or prior to the date due and any failure of such Loan Party to apply all such funds solely for such purposes shall constitute an
immediate Event of Default. 
 Section 2.22. Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding any provisions 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 2.12(a) and, subject to clause (d)(iv) below, on the participation of such Defaulting Lender in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.12(b). 

(b) The Commitment and the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or
the Required Lenders or Super Majority Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that any waiver, amendment or
modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender disproportionately and adversely relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

  
 99 

 (c) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by
the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 2.11, Section 2.18, Article 7 or otherwise, and including
any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.09), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent and, where relevant, the
Borrower Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to any
applicable Issuing Banks and Swingline Lenders hereunder; third, if so reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent or reasonably requested by the applicable Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, to be held as Cash collateral for future
funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower Agent may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect
of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Agent, to be held in a
deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders as a result of any
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;
seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower Agent as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower Agent against that Defaulting
Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that 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 or LC Exposure in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or LC Exposure were made or created at a time when the conditions
set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolver Loans of, and LC Exposure owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro
rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Exposure owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a
Defaulting Lender or to post Cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.22(c) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(d) If any Swingline Loans or LC Exposure exists or Protective Advance is outstanding at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting
Lender then: 
 (i) all or any part of such Swingline Loans, LC Exposure and Protective Advances shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Exposures plus
the amount of the Applicable Percentage of the Defaulting Lender (determined immediately prior to its being a Defaulting Lender) of Swingline Loans and Protective Advances that it has funded and are outstanding as of the date that it became a
Defaulting Lender plus the Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments; or 

  
 100 

 (ii) if the reallocation described in paragraph (i) above cannot, or can only
partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to them hereunder or under law, within two Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, Cash collateralize 100.0% of such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure and any obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund participations in any Swingline Loan or Protective Advance (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to paragraph (i) above and any Cash
collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender) or make other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and to the applicable Issuing Bank and/or Swingline Lender with respect to such LC Exposure and obligations to fund
participations. Cash collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce LC Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (A) the elimination of the applicable LC Exposure or other obligations giving rise
thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 2.19)) or (B) the Administrative Agent’s good faith
determination that there exists excess Cash collateral. 
 (iii) if the LC Exposure of the
non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.22(d), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.12(a) and (b), as the case may be,
shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; or 

(iv) if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is not Cash collateralized, prepaid or reallocated pursuant to this
Section 2.22(d), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to
such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank until such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is Cash collateralized. 

(e) So long as any Lender is Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no
Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, create, incur, amend or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is reasonably satisfied that the related exposure will be 100.0% covered by the Commitments of the
non-Defaulting Lenders and/or Cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.22(d), and participating interests in any such newly issued, extended or
created Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.22(d)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not
participate therein). 
 (f) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline
Lender each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the ABL Applicable Percentage of Swingline Loans and Protective Advances and LC Exposure of the ABL Revolving
Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s ABL Revolving Commitment (if any) and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par 

  
 101 

 
such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) or participations in Loans as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such
Loans or participations in accordance with its ABL Applicable Percentage or FILO Applicable Percentage, as the case may be; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf
of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a
waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 Section 2.23.
Incremental Credit Extensions. 
 (a) The Borrower Agent may, at any time, deliver a written request to Administrative
Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) to increase the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments in an aggregate principal amount of up to $200,000,000, specifying the amount requested (each such
increase, a “Commitment Increase”); provided that (i) such request shall be for an increase of not less than $10,000,000, (ii) except as otherwise specifically agreed by any Lender prior to the Closing Date, or
separately agreed from time to time between the Borrower Agent and any Lender, no Lender shall be obligated to provide such increase in its Commitment and the determination to increase the Commitment of a Lender shall be within the sole and absolute
discretion of such Lender, (iii) no Commitment Increase shall require the approval of any existing Lender other than the existing Lender (if any) providing all or part of such increase, (iv) such Commitment Increase will be on terms
identical to those applicable to the ABL Revolving Facility or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (other than any terms which are applicable only after the then-existing Maturity Date and other than as set forth under
clause (v)) and (v) the interest rate applicable to any Commitment Increase will be determined by the Borrower Agent and the lenders providing such Commitment Increase; provided that such interest rate will not be higher than the
corresponding interest rate applicable to the existing ABL Revolving Facility unless the interest rate margin with respect to the existing ABL Revolving Facility is adjusted to be equal to the interest rate with respect to the relevant Commitment
Increase; provided, further, that in determining the applicable interest rate: (w) upfront fees paid by the Borrowers in connection with such Commitment Increase (based on a four year average life to maturity or lesser remaining
life to maturity), shall be included, (x) any amendments to the Applicable Rate that became effective subsequent to the Closing Date but prior to the time of the addition of such Commitment Increase shall be included, (y) arrangement,
commitment, structuring and underwriting fees and any amendment fees paid or payable to the Arrangers (or their Affiliates) in their respective capacities as such in connection with the ABL Revolving Facility or to one or more arrangers (or their
affiliates) in their capacities as such applicable to such Commitment Increase shall be excluded and (z) if such Commitment Increase includes any interest rate floor greater than that applicable to the ABL Revolving Facility, and such floor is
applicable to the ABL Revolving Facility on the date of determination, such excess amount shall be equated to interest margin for determining the increase. 

  
 102 

 (b) Commitment Increases may be provided by any existing Lender, or by any
other lender (any such other lender being called an “Additional Lender”); provided that the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld)
to such Additional Lender’s providing such Commitment Increases if such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of ABL Revolving Loans or ABL Revolving Commitments, as applicable, to such
Additional Lender. 
 (c) Each Lender or Additional Lender providing a portion of the Commitment Increase shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Agent all such documentation (including an amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document) as may be reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to evidence and effectuate such
Commitment Increase. On the effective date of such Commitment Increase, (i) the Commitment Schedule shall be amended, without the consent of any other Lenders, to reflect such Commitment Increase and the Administrative Agent is authorized and
directed to so revise the Commitment Schedule and distribute it to each Lender and the Borrower Agent, (ii) such revised Commitment Schedule shall replace the then existing Commitment Schedule and become part of this Agreement, and
(iii) each Additional Lender added as a new ABL Revolving Lender pursuant to such increase in the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments shall become a ABL Revolving Lender for all purposes in connection with this Agreement. 

(d) As a condition precedent to such Commitment Increase, (i) upon its request, the Administrative Agent shall have
received an opinion of counsel to the Borrowers in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as well as reaffirmation agreements, supplements and/or amendments to the Collateral Documents (including in the case of the
Mortgages, mortgage amendments and date down endorsements with respect to the applicable insurance policies) as it shall reasonably require, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received an administrative questionnaire, in the form provided
to such Additional Lender by the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Questionnaire”) and such other documents as it shall reasonably require for an Additional Lender and the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have received
all fees required to be paid in respect of such Commitment Increase and (iii) Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of each Borrower signed by an authorized officer of such Borrower (A) certifying and attaching a copy of
the resolutions adopted by the Borrowers approving or consenting to such Commitment Increase, and (B) in the case of the Borrower Agent, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such Commitment Increase, no Event of Default exists or
has occurred and is continuing. 

  
 103 

 (e) Upon each increase in the ABL Revolving Commitments pursuant to this
Section 2.23, (i) each ABL Revolving Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each lender providing a portion of the Commitment Increase (each a
“Commitment Increase Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such ABL Revolving Lender’s participations
hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (A) participations hereunder in Letters
of Credit and (B) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each ABL Revolving Lender (including each such Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments of all ABL Revolving Lenders
represented by such ABL Revolving Lender’s ABL Revolving Commitment and (ii) if, on the date of such increase, there are any ABL Revolving Loans outstanding, such ABL Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such
Commitment Increase be prepaid from the proceeds of additional ABL Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such increase in Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the ABL Revolving Loans being prepaid and any
costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.16. 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 the immediately preceding sentence. 
 (f) Effective
on the date of each increase in the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.23, (i) each reference in this Agreement to an amount of ABL Excess Availability (other than as a percentage of the
Aggregate Commitments) shall, automatically and without any further action, be deemed to be increased so that the ratio of each amount of ABL Excess Availability to the amount of the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments after such increase in the
aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments remains the same as the ratio of such the amount of ABL Excess Availability to the amount of the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments prior to such increase in the aggregate ABL Revolving Commitments and
(ii) the maximum amount of LC Exposure permitted hereunder shall increase by an amount, if any, agreed upon by Administrative Agent, Issuing Banks and the Borrowers. 

(g) This Section 2.23 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or
9.02 to the contrary. 
 Section 2.24. Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents to the contrary, each Borrower, jointly and
severally, in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Administrative Agent and Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in
consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a
co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of 

  
 104 

 
the Obligations, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among
them. Borrowers shall be liable for all amounts due to Administrative Agent and Lenders under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives the Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder or the amount of such Loans received or the manner
in which the Administrative Agent or any Lender accounts for such Loans, LC Exposure or other extensions of credit on its books and records. The Obligations of Borrowers with respect to Loans made to one of them, and the Obligations arising as a
result of the joint and several liability of one of the Borrowers hereunder with respect to Loans made to the other of the Borrowers hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such other Obligations shall be primary obligations
of all Borrowers. 
 (b) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the
Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event, the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation. 

(c) The obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.24 shall not be diminished or rendered
unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any Borrower. The joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder shall continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, membership, constitution or place of formation of any Borrower or any of the Lenders. 

(d) The provisions of this Section 2.24 hereof are made for the benefit of the Lenders and their
successors and assigns, and subject to Article 8 hereof, may be enforced by them from time to time against any Borrower as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender first to
marshal any of its claims or to exercise any of its rights against the other Borrowers or to exhaust any remedies available to it against the other Borrowers or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations
hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 2.24 shall remain in effect until the Termination Date. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations is
rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.24 hereof will
forthwith be reinstated and in effect as though such payment had not been made. 
 (e) Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, to the extent the obligations of a Borrower shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or
federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of such Borrower hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under applicable law (whether federal, state or provincial and including, without
limitation, the Bankruptcy Code of the United States). 

  
 105 

 (f) With respect to the Obligations arising as a result of the joint and
several liability of Borrowers hereunder with respect to Loans, Letters of Credit or other extensions of credit made to the other Borrowers hereunder, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives, until the payment in full
in Cash of all Obligations, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations,
and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to Administrative Agent or any Lender. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to Administrative Agent or
Lenders hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full
in Cash of all Obligations. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as the same is continuing, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, Administrative Agent and Lenders may proceed directly and at once, without
notice (to the extent notice is waivable under applicable law), against (i) with respect to Obligations of Borrowers, either or all of them or (ii) with respect to Obligations of any Borrower, to collect and recover the full amount, or any
portion of the applicable Obligations, without first proceeding against the other Borrowers or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that Administrative Agent and Lenders shall
be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Borrower(s) or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. Subject to the foregoing, in the event that a Loan, Letter of Credit or other extension of credit is made to, or with
respect to business of, one Borrower and any other Borrower makes any payments with respect to such Loan, Letter of Credit Obligation or extension of credit, the first Borrower shall promptly reimburse such other Borrower for all payments so made by
such other Borrower. 
 Section 2.25. Reserves; Changes to Eligibility Criteria. The Administrative Agent may at any time
and from time to time in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion upon three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrowers, which notice shall include a reasonably detailed description of such Reserve being established or change to any
eligibility criteria being made (during which period (x) the Administrative Agent shall, if requested, discuss any such Reserve or change with the Borrowers and (y) the Borrowers may take such action as may be required so that the event,
condition or matter that is the basis for such Reserve or change thereto no longer exists or exists in a manner that would result in the establishment of a lower Reserve or result in a lesser change thereto, in a manner and to the extent reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), (x) establish and increase or decrease Reserves in accordance with the terms hereof or (y) modify eligibility standards under the definition of Eligible Trade Receivables, Eligible Credit Card
Receivables, Eligible Inventory or Eligible In-Transit Inventory. In exercising such Permitted Discretion, the Administrative Agent may consider any of the following: (a) changes after the Closing Date in
demand for, pricing of, or product mix of Inventory; (b) changes after the Closing Date in any concentration of risk with respect to a Loan Party’s Accounts or Inventory; and (c) any other factors arising after the Closing Date that
change in any material respect the credit risk of lending to a Borrower on the security of a Loan 

  
 106 

 
Party’s Accounts or Inventory. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (a) the establishment or increase of any Reserves or changes in any eligibility
criteria shall be limited to such Reserves and changes as the Administrative Agent determines, in its Permitted Discretion, are appropriate (i) to reflect items that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Administrative
Agent’s ability to realize upon the Revolving Facility First Lien Collateral, (ii) to reflect priority claims and liabilities that the Administrative Agent determines will need to be satisfied in connection with the realization upon the
Revolving Facility First Lien Collateral or (iii) to reflect criteria, events, conditions, contingencies or risks that differ materially from facts or events occurring and known to the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date and which directly
and adversely affect any component of the ABL Borrowing Base and/or the FILO Borrowing Base, (b) in no event shall Reserves or changes in eligibility criteria with respect to any component of the ABL Borrowing Base and/or the FILO Borrowing
Base duplicate Reserves or adjustments already accounted for determining eligibility criteria and (c) in no event shall Reserves be imposed on the first 5.0% of dilution of Accounts and thereafter shall not exceed more than 1.0% for each
incremental percentage increase in dilution over 5.0%. 
 Section 2.26. Special Provisions Relating to Conversion of Loans.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, 
 (a) on the First Amendment Effective Date, (i)(x) the Extended
ABL Revolving Loans shall be deemed made as LIBO Rate Loans in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Existing ABL Revolving Loans converted into Extended ABL Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 1(a) of the First Amendment that were
outstanding as LIBO Rate Loans at the time of such conversion (such Extended ABL Revolving Loans to correspond in amount to Existing ABL Revolving Loans so converted of a given Interest Period) and (y) the Extended FILO Loans shall be deemed
made as LIBO Rate Loans in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Existing FILO Loans converted into Extended FILO Loans pursuant to Section 1(a) of the First Amendment that were outstanding as LIBO Rate Loans at the time of such
conversion (such Extended FILO Loans to correspond in amount to Existing FILO Loans so converted of a given Interest Period), (ii)(x) Interest Periods for the Extended ABL Revolving Loans described in clause (i)(x) above shall end on the same dates
as the Interest Periods applicable to the corresponding Existing ABL Revolving Loans described in clause (i)(x) above, and the LIBO Rates applicable to such Extended ABL Revolving Loans shall be the same as those applicable to the Existing ABL
Revolving Loans so converted and (y) Interest Periods for the Extended FILO Loans described in clause (i)(y) above shall end on the same dates as the Interest Periods applicable to the corresponding Existing FILO Loans described in clause
(i)(y) above, and the LIBO Rates applicable to such Extended FILO Loans shall be the same as those applicable to the Existing FILO Loans so converted, (iii)(x) the Extended ABL Revolving Loans shall be deemed made as ABR Loans in an amount equal to
the principal amount of Existing ABL Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 1(a) of the First Amendment that were outstanding as ABR Loans at the time of converstion and (y) the Extended FILO Loans shall be deemed made as ABR Loans in an
amount equal to the principal amount of Existing FILO Loans pursuant to Section 1(a) of the First Amendment that were outstanding as ABR Loans at the time of converstion, and (iv)(x) each Extended ABL Revolving Loan shall continue to be
entitled to all accrued 

  
 107 

 
and unpaid interest with respect to the Existing ABL Revolving Loans from which such Extended ABL Revolving Loan was converted up to but excluding the First Amendment Effective Date and
(y) each Extended FILO Loan shall continue to be entitled to all accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Existing FILO Loans from which such Extended FILO Loan was converted up to but excluding the First Amendment Effective Date; 

(b) no (i) conversion of (x) outstanding Existing ABL Revolving Loans (and related aggregate ABL Revolving Exposure)
into Extended ABL Revolving Loans (and related aggregate ABL Revolving Exposure) and (y) outstanding Existing FILO Loans (and related aggregate FILO Revolving Exposure) into Extended FILO Loans (and related aggregate FILO Revolving Exposure) or
(ii) assignment of outstanding Existing ABL Revolving Loans and/or outstanding Existing FILO Loans, in each case, pursuant to Section 1(a) of the First Amendment shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment, prepayment or commitment
reduction for purposes of this Agreement; and 
 (c) on and after the First Amendment Effective Date, each Lender which holds
a Promissory Note evidencing an Existing ABL Revolving Loan or Existing FILO Loan shall be entitled to surrender such Promissory Note to the Parent Borrower against delivery of a new Promissory Note completed in conformity with Section 2.10
(and the definition of Promissory Note) evidencing the Extended ABL Revolving Loan and/or Extended FILO Loan, as applicable, into which such Loans of such Lender was converted on the First Amendment Effective Date; provided that if any such
Promissory Note is not so surrendered, then from and after the First Amendment Effective Date, such Promissory Note shall be deemed to evidence the Extended ABL Revolving Loan and/or Extended FILO Loan, as applicable, into which the Loan theretofore
evidenced by such Promissory Note has been converted.

Borrower Agent’s website on the Internet at the website address listed on Schedule 9.01 or (z) with respect to the items required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(o) above in

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this
Section 5.01 may be satisfied with respect to financial information of the Borrower Agent and its subsidiaries by furnishing (A) the applicable financial statements of any Parent Company or (B) the Form 10-K or 10-Q, as applicable, of the Borrower Agent or any Parent Company, as applicable, filed with the SEC; provided that, with respect to each of subclauses
(A) and (B) of this paragraph, (i) to the extent such information relates to a direct or indirect parent of the Borrower Agent, such information is accompanied by unaudited consolidating or other information that explains in
reasonable detail the differences between the information relating to such direct or indirect parent, on the one hand, and the information relating to the Borrower Agent and its subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand and (ii) to
the extent such information is in lieu of information required to be provided under Section 5.01(c), such materials are, to the extent applicable, accompanied by a report and opinion of Ernst & Young LLP or other
independent certified public accountants meeting the requirements of such Section. 
 Section 5.02. Existence. Except as
otherwise permitted under Section 6.08, each Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence and all rights and franchises, licenses and
permits material to its business except to the extent (other than with respect to the preservation of existence of the Borrowers) failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; provided that no
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to preserve any such existence, right or franchise, licenses and permits if such Person’s board of directors (or similar governing body) shall determine that the preservation thereof is no
longer desirable in the conduct of the business of such Person, and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to such Person or to the Lenders. 

Section 5.03. Payment of Taxes. Each Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay all material Taxes imposed
upon it or any of its properties or assets or in respect of any of its income, businesses or franchises before any penalty or fine accrues thereon; provided that no such Tax need be paid if (a) it is being contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted, so long as (i) adequate reserves or other appropriate provisions, as shall be required in conformity with GAAP, shall have been made therefor, and (ii) in the case of a
Tax which has or may become a Lien against any of the Collateral, such contest proceedings operate to stay the sale of any portion of the Collateral to satisfy such Tax or claim or (b) failure to pay or discharge the same could not reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.04. Maintenance of Properties. Each Borrower will, and will
cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain or cause to be maintained in good repair, working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear and casualty and condemnation excepted, all property reasonably necessary to the normal conduct of business of
the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries and from time to time will make or cause to be made all needed and appropriate repairs, renewals and replacements thereof except as expressly permitted by this Agreement or where the failure to
maintain such properties could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 123 

 Section 5.05. Insurance. The Borrowers will maintain or cause to be maintained,
with financially sound and reputable insurers, such insurance coverage with respect to liabilities, losses or damage in respect of the assets, properties and businesses of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries as may customarily be carried
or maintained under similar circumstances by Persons of established reputation engaged in similar businesses, in each case in such amounts (giving effect to self-insurance), with such deductibles, covering such risks and otherwise on such terms and
conditions as shall be customary for such Persons. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrowers will maintain or cause to be maintained replacement value casualty insurance on the Collateral under such policies of insurance, with
such insurance companies, in such amounts, with such deductibles, and covering such risks as are at all times carried or maintained under similar circumstances by Persons of established reputation engaged in similar businesses. Each such policy of
insurance shall (i) name the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders as an additional insured thereunder as its interests may appear and (ii) in the case of each casualty insurance policy (including any business interruption
insurance policy), contain a loss payable clause or endorsement, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent that names the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders as the loss payee thereunder and provides for at
least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of any modification or cancellation of such policy (or ten days’ prior written notice for any cancellation due to non-payment of
premiums). With respect to each improved Mortgaged Property as to which a building thereon is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor agency thereto) as a “special flood hazard area” with
respect to which flood insurance has been made available under the Flood Insurance Laws, the applicable Loan Party (a) shall obtain and maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies (except to the extent that any insurance
company insuring such Mortgaged Property of such Loan Party ceases to be financially sound and reputable after the Closing Date, in which case such Loan Party shall promptly replace such insurance company with a financially sound and reputable
insurance company), such flood insurance in an amount sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Flood Insurance Laws and otherwise in compliance with all applicable rules and regulations under the Flood
Insurance Laws and (b) promptly upon request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or such Lender as applicable, evidence of such compliance in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, including, without limitation, evidence of annual renewals of such flood insurance. 

Section 5.06. Inspections. 

(a) Each Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit any authorized representatives designated by
Administrative Agent to visit and inspect any of the properties of any such Borrower and any of its respective Subsidiaries, to inspect, copy and take extracts from its and their financial and accounting records, and to discuss its and their
affairs, finances and accounts with its and their officers and independent public accountants (provided that such Borrower may, if it so chooses, be present at or participate in any such discussion), all upon reasonable notice, reasonable
coordination in and at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may reasonably be requested; provided that, excluding such visits and inspections during the continuation of an Event of Default, (x) only the
Administrative Agent on behalf of the 

  
 124 

 
Lenders may exercise the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section 5.06(a), (y) the Administrative Agent shall not exercise such rights more
often than one time during any calendar year, and (z) only one such time per calendar year shall be at the expense of Borrowers; provided, further, that when an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent (or any of its
respective representatives or independent contractors) may do any of the foregoing at the expense of the Borrowers at any time during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice; provided that notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, neither the Borrower Agent nor any Subsidiary shall be required to disclose, permit the inspection, examination or making of copies or abstracts of, or any discussion of, any document, information, or other matter (i) that
constitutes non-financial trade secrets or non-financial proprietary information, (ii) in respect of which disclosure to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or
their respective representatives or contractors) is prohibited by applicable law or (iii) that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege or constitutes attorney work product. 

(b) At reasonable times during normal business hours, with reasonable coordination and upon reasonable prior notice that the
Administrative Agent requests, independently of or in connection with the visits and inspections provided for in clause (a) above, each Borrower and its Subsidiaries will grant access to the Administrative Agent (including employees of
Administrative Agent or any consultants, accountants, lawyers and appraisers retained by the Administrative Agent) to such Person’s books, records, accounts and Inventory so that the Administrative Agent or an appraiser or consultants retained
by the Administrative Agent may conduct an inventory appraisal subject to the terms and conditions set forth below in this clause (b). From time to time the Administrative Agent may conduct (or engage third parties to conduct) such field
examinations, verifications and evaluations as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate; provided that, Administrative Agent (i) shall conduct (x) one field examination and one inventory appraisal with respect to
the Collateral in each consecutive 12-month period after the date of this Agreement and (y) one additional field examination and one additional inventory appraisal with respect to the Collateral in any such consecutive 12-month period referred to in sub-clause (x) during which Excess Availability is less than 15.0% of the Total Line Cap for more than five consecutive Business Days until
the date Excess Availability shall have been at least 15.0% of the Total Line Cap for 30 consecutive calendar days, and (ii) may conduct such other field examinations and inventory appraisals at any time upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an any Event of Default, in each case, in a form and from a third party appraiser or consultant, reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. All such appraisals, field examinations and other verifications and evaluations
shall be at the sole expense of the Loan Parties, and the Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower Agent with a reasonably detailed accounting of all such expenses. In addition, the Administrative Agent may conduct one additional inventory
appraisal and field examination in each consecutive 12-month period after the date of this Agreement as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request at the expense of the Lenders.  

  
 125 

 (c) The Loan Parties acknowledge that the Administrative Agent, after
exercising its rights of inspection, (x) may prepare and distribute to the Lenders certain Reports pertaining to the Loan Parties’ assets for internal use by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, subject to the provisions of
Section 9.13 hereof and (y) shall promptly distribute copies of any final reports from a third party appraiser or third party consultant delivered in connection with any field exam or appraisal to the Lenders. 

Section 5.07. Maintenance of Book and Records. Each Borrower will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, maintain proper books of
record and account, in which entries that are full, true and correct in all material respects and are in conformity with GAAP shall be made of all material financial transactions and matters involving the assets and business of each Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, as the case may be. 
 Section 5.08. Compliance with Laws. Each Borrower will comply, and shall cause each of its
Subsidiaries to comply, with the requirements of all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority (including all Environmental Laws, OFAC, USA PATRIOT Act and United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as
amended), noncompliance with which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.09.
Environmental. 
 (a) Environmental Disclosure. The Borrower Agent will deliver to the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders: 
 (i) as soon as practicable following receipt thereof, copies of all environmental audits, investigations, analyses and
reports of any kind or character, whether prepared by personnel of the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries or by independent consultants, governmental authorities or any other Persons, with respect to significant environmental matters at any
Borrower or with respect to any Environmental Claims, in each case, that might reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; 

(ii) promptly upon the occurrence thereof, written notice describing in reasonable detail (A) any Release required to be reported by any
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to any federal, state or local governmental or regulatory agency under any applicable Environmental Laws that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (B) any remedial action taken by
Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Persons of which the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries has knowledge in response to (1) any Hazardous Materials Activities the existence of which has a reasonable possibility of
resulting in one or more Environmental Claims having, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, or (2) any Environmental Claims that, individually or in the aggregate, have a reasonable possibility of resulting in a Material
Adverse Effect, and (C) any Borrower’s discovery of any occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of any Facility that reasonably could be expected to cause such Facility or any part thereof to be subject to
any material restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, transferability or use thereof under any Environmental Laws; 

  
 126 

 (iii) as soon as practicable following the sending or receipt thereof by the Borrower Agent
or any of its Subsidiaries, a copy of any and all written communications with respect to (A) any Environmental Claims that, individually or in the aggregate, have a reasonable possibility of giving rise to a Material Adverse Effect,
(B) any Release required to be reported by the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries to any federal, state or local governmental or regulatory agency that reasonably could be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (C) any
request made to the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries for information from any governmental agency that suggests such agency is investigating whether the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries may be potentially responsible for any
Hazardous Materials Activity which is reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; 
 (iv) prompt written notice describing in
reasonable detail (A) any proposed acquisition of stock, assets, or property by the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to expose the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries to, or result in,
Environmental Claims that could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect and (B) any proposed action to be taken by the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries to modify current operations in
a manner that could reasonably be expected to subject the Borrower Agent or any of its Subsidiaries to any additional material obligations or requirements under any Environmental Law; and 

(v) with reasonable promptness, such other documents and information as from time to time may be reasonably requested by the Administrative
Agent in relation to any matters disclosed pursuant to this Section 5.09(a). 
 (b) Hazardous
Materials Activities, Etc. Each Loan Party shall promptly take, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries promptly to take, any and all actions necessary to (i) cure any violation of applicable Environmental Laws by such Loan Party or its
Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) make an appropriate response to any Environmental Claim against such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries and discharge any obligations it may have to
any Person thereunder, in each case, where failure to do so could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 5.10. Designation of Subsidiaries. The board of directors of the Borrower Agent may at any time designate
any subsidiary of any Borrower as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Subsidiary; provided that (i) immediately before and after such designation, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, (ii) after giving effect to such designation, the Borrowers shall be in pro forma compliance with Section 6.18 (whether or not then applicable), (iii) no Borrower may be designated as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary, (iv) no subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it is a “Subsidiary” for the purpose of the Term Loan Agreement, the Senior Notes or any other Indebtedness in excess of the Threshold Amount,
(v) as of the date of the designation thereof, no Unrestricted Subsidiary shall own any Capital Stock in the Borrower Agent or its Subsidiaries or hold any Indebtedness of, or any Lien on any property of the Borrower Agent or its
Subsidiaries, or (vi) the holder of any Indebtedness of any Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not have any recourse to the Borrower Agent or its Subsidiaries with respect to such Indebtedness. The designation of any subsidiary as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment by the Borrower Agent therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the portion (proportionate to the Borrower Agent’s equity interest in such subsidiary) of the fair market value of the net
assets of 

  
 127 

 
such Subsidiary (and such designation shall only be permitted to the extent such Investment is permitted under Section 6.07); provided, that upon a redesignation
of such Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Subsidiary, the Borrower Agent shall be deemed to continue to have a permanent Investment in a Subsidiary in an amount (if positive) equal to (a) the Borrower Agent’s “Investment” in such
Subsidiary at the time of such redesignation, less (b) the portion (proportionate to the Borrower Agent’s equity interest in such Subsidiary) of the fair market value of the net assets of such Subsidiary at the time of such
redesignation. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Subsidiary shall constitute the incurrence at the time of designation of any Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time. 

Section 5.11. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans, the Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit are to be used
solely (a) on the Closing Date, (i) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $346,000,000 to finance a portion of the Existing Debt Refinancing and a portion of the Transaction Costs (exclusive of amounts described under clauses
(ii) and (iii) below) and for working capital needs, (ii) to finance any amounts required to be paid as additional original issue discount or upfront fees, and (iii) for the rollover, backstopping or
cash-collateralization of the Existing Letters of Credit into Letters of Credit issued hereunder and (b) after the Closing Date, to finance the working capital needs and other general corporate purposes of the Parent Borrower and its
Subsidiaries (including for capital expenditures, acquisitions, working capital and/or purchase price adjustments, the payment of transaction fees and expenses, other investments, restricted payments and any other purpose not prohibited by Loan
Documents). No part of the proceeds of any Loan and no Letter of Credit will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that would entail a violation of Regulations T, U or X. 

Section 5.12. Additional Collateral; Further Assurances. 

(a) Subject to applicable law, each Borrower and each other Loan Party shall cause each of its Domestic Subsidiaries (other
than an Excluded Subsidiary) formed or acquired after the date of this Agreement to become a Loan Party on or prior to the later to occur of (i) 30 days following the date of such creation or acquisition and (ii) the earlier of the date of the
required delivery of the next Compliance Certificate following such creation or acquisition and the date which is 45 days after the end of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter (or such later date as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in
its discretion), by executing a Subsidiary Borrower Joinder Agreement or a Subsidiary Guarantor Joinder Agreement in substantially the form set forth as Exhibit E hereto (the “Subsidiary Guarantor Joinder
Agreement” and, together with each Subsidiary Borrower Joinder Agreement, each individually a “Joinder Agreement” and, collectively, the “Joinder Agreements”). Upon execution and delivery thereof, each such
Person (i) shall automatically become a Subsidiary Guarantor or a Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, hereunder and thereupon shall have all of the rights, benefits, duties, and obligations in such capacity under the Loan Documents and
(ii) will simultaneously therewith or as soon as practicable thereafter grant Liens to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and each other Secured Party, in each case to the extent required by
the terms thereof, in any property (subject to the limitations with respect to Capital Stock set forth 

  
 128 

 
in paragraph (b) of this Section 5.12, the limitations with respect to real property set forth in paragraph (d) of this
Section 5.12, and any other limitations set forth in the Pledge and Security Agreement) of such Loan Party which constitutes Collateral, on such terms as may be required pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Documents and
in such priority as may be required pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (b) Each Borrower and each
Subsidiary that is a Loan Party will cause all Capital Stock directly owned by them to be subject at all times to a First Priority perfected Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Collateral Documents;
provided that in no event will any Loan Party be required to pledge or perfect more than 65.0% of the equity interests as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes of any Foreign Subsidiary, FSHCO Subsidiary or Disregarded Domestic
Subsidiary of such Loan Party. 
 (c) Without limiting the foregoing, each Loan Party will, and will cause each Subsidiary
that is a Loan Party to, promptly execute and deliver, or cause to be promptly executed and delivered, to the Administrative Agent such documents, agreements and instruments, and will take or cause to be taken such further actions (including the
filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents and such other actions or deliveries of the type required by Article 4, as applicable), which the Administrative Agent may, from time to
time, reasonably request to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to ensure perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Collateral Documents (to the extent required
herein or therein), all at the expense of the Loan Parties. 
 (d) Subject to the limitations set forth or referred to in
this Section 5.12, if any Material Real Estate Assets are acquired by any Loan Party after the Closing Date (other than assets constituting Collateral under the Pledge and Security Agreement that become subject to the Lien
in favor of the Administrative Agent upon acquisition thereof), the Borrower Agent will notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders thereof, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, within 90 days of such request
(or such longer period as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower Agent will cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Secured Obligations and will take, and cause each Subsidiary that is a Loan Party to take, such
actions as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to grant and perfect such Liens, including actions described in paragraph (c) of this Section and with respect to Material Real Estate Assets, clause
(ii) of Section 5.13(a), all at the expense of the Loan Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Mortgage shall be required in respect of any Material Real Estate Asset acquired by any Loan Party after the
Closing Date until the date that occurs 30 days after the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders (which may be delivered electronically) the following documents in respect of such Material Real Estate Asset: (i) a completed flood
hazard determination from a third party vendor, (ii) if such Material Real Estate Asset is located in a “special flood hazard area,” (A) a notification to the applicable Loan Party of that fact and (if applicable) notification to the
applicable Loan Party that flood insurance is 

  
 129 

 
not available and (B) evidence of receipt by the applicable Loan Party of such notice, and (iii) if such notice is required to be provided to the applicable Loan Party and flood
insurance is available in the community in which such Material Real Estate Asset is located, evidence of flood insurance as required by Section 5.05; provided that any such Mortgage may be granted prior to the notice
period specified above if the Administrative Agent shall have received written confirmation from each applicable Lender that such Lender has completed any necessary flood insurance due diligence to its reasonable satisfaction. 

(e) After any Domestic Subsidiary ceases to constitute an Excluded Subsidiary in accordance with the definition thereof, the
Borrower Agent shall cause such Domestic Subsidiary to take all actions required by this Section 5.12 (within the time periods specified herein) as if such Domestic Subsidiary were then formed or acquired. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.12 or any other Collateral Document, (a) the Administrative Agent
shall not require the taking of a Lien on, or require the perfection of any Lien granted in, those assets as to which the cost of obtaining or perfecting such Lien (including any mortgage, stamp, intangibles or other tax or expenses relating to such
Lien) is excessive in relation to the benefit to the Lenders of the security afforded thereby as reasonably determined by the Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent, (b) no Lien in Real Estate Assets shall be required except in respect of
Material Real Estate Assets (provided that in any jurisdiction in which a tax is required to be paid in respect of the Mortgage on real property located in such jurisdiction based on the entire amount of the Secured Obligations, the amount
secured by such Mortgage shall be limited to the estimated fair market value of the property to be subject to the Mortgage determined in a manner reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and the Borrower Agent), (c) no actions shall be
required to be taken in order to create or grant any security interest in any assets located outside of the United States and no foreign law security or pledge agreements shall be required and (d) Liens required to be granted or perfected
pursuant to this Section 5.12 shall be subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and to exceptions and limitations consistent with those set forth in the Collateral Documents. 

Section 5.13. Post-Closing Items. (a) The Loan Parties shall take all necessary actions to satisfy the following
requirements: (i) take each of the actions required by Section 2.21(c) within the time periods therein specified and (ii) within 90 days following the Closing Date or such longer period as the Administrative Agent
may agree in its sole discretion cause a Mortgage on the Mortgaged Property specified in Schedule 1.01(c) to be executed, delivered and recorded and in connection therewith deliver corresponding UCC fixture filings, flood hazard determination
forms, title insurance policies (including any endorsements thereto), surveys, local counsel opinions and other documentation that the Administrative Agent shall reasonably require. 

(b) The Loan Parties shall take all necessary actions to satisfy the items described on Schedule 5.13(b) within the applicable periods
of time specified in such Schedule (or such longer periods as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion). 

  
 130 

 Section 5.14. MIRE Events. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees
that, if there are any Mortgaged Properties, no MIRE Event may be closed until the date that is (a) if there are no Mortgaged Properties in a “special flood hazard area”, ten (10) Business Days or (b) if there are Mortgaged
Properties in a “special flood hazard area”, thirty (30) days (in each case, the “Notice Period”), after the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders the following documents in respect of each Mortgaged Property:
(i) a “Life-of-Loan” Federal Emergency Management Agency Standard Flood Hazard Determination with respect to each Mortgaged Property (together with a
notice about special flood hazard area status and flood disaster assistance duly executed by the Borrower or the applicable Loan Party in the event any such Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area) and (ii) evidence of
flood insurance as required by Section 5.05 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such MIRE Event may be closed prior to the Notice Period if the Administrative Agent shall have received confirmation from each applicable Lender that such
Lender has completed any necessary flood insurance due diligence to its reasonable satisfaction.

Section 6.18. Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Compliance Event, the

Compliance Event and, during the continuance thereof, in each case for the last Test Period for which financial statements have been or are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(b) or (c). 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to contrary in this Agreement (including Article 7), upon an Event of Default as a result
of the Borrower Agent’s failure to comply with Section 6.18(a) above, Holdings shall have the right (the “Cure Right”) (at any time during such Fiscal Quarter or thereafter until the date that is 15
Business Days after the date that financial statements for such Fiscal Quarter are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(b) or (c)) to issue equity (which shall be common equity, Qualified Capital Stock or other
equity (such other equity to be on terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent)) for Cash or otherwise receive Cash contributions to its common equity, which shall in turn be contributed as Cash common equity to the Borrower Agent (the
“Cure Amount”), and thereupon the Borrower Agent’s compliance with Section 6.18(a) shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustment: Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA shall be
increased (notwithstanding the absence of an addback in the definition of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA”), solely for the purposes of determining compliance with Section 6.18(a) hereof, including determining
compliance with Section 6.18(a) hereof as of the end of such Fiscal Quarter and applicable subsequent periods that include such Fiscal Quarter, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount. If, after giving effect to the foregoing
recalculations (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account any immediate repayment of Indebtedness in connection therewith), the requirements of Section 6.18(a) shall be satisfied, then the requirements of
Section 6.18(a) shall be deemed satisfied as of the end of the relevant Fiscal Quarter with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of
Section  

  
 158 

 
6.18(a) that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four consecutive Fiscal Quarter period
of the Borrower Agent there shall be at least two Fiscal Quarters in which the Cure Right is not exercised, (ii) during the term of this Agreement, the Cure Right shall not be exercised more than five times, (iii) the Cure Amount shall be
no greater than the amount required for purposes of complying with Section 6.18(a), (iv) upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a written notice from the Borrower Agent that it intends to exercise the Cure Right (a
“Notice of Intent to Cure”), until the 15th Business Day following the date that financial statements for the Fiscal Quarter to which such Notice of Intent to Cure relates are required to be delivered pursuant to
Section 5.01(b) or (c), none of the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall exercise the right to accelerate the Loans or terminate the Commitments and neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Lender or Secured
Party shall exercise any right to foreclose on or take possession of the Collateral solely on the basis of such Event of Default having occurred and being continuing under Section 6.18(a), (v) during any Test Period in
which the Cure Amount is included in the calculation of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA pursuant to any exercise of the Cure Right, such Cure Amount shall be counted solely as an increase to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (and not as a reduction to
Indebtedness (directly through repayment or indirectly through netting)) and solely for the purpose of determining the Borrower Agent’s compliance with Section 6.18(a) and shall be disregarded for any other purpose,
including for purposes of determining any financial ratio-based conditions, pricing or the availability of any basket under Article 6 of this Agreement and (vi) no Lender or Issuing Lender shall be required to make any Loan hereunder, if
an Event of Default under the Financial Covenant has occurred and is continuing, during the 15 Business Day period during which Holdings may exercise a Cure Right, unless and until the Cure Amount is actually received.

accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers and (iii) require that the Borrowers deposit in the LC Collateral
Account an additional amount in Cash as reasonably requested by the Issuing Banks, (not to exceed 100.0% of the relevant fact amount) of the then outstanding LC Exposure; provided that upon the occurrence of an event with respect to the

 ARTICLE 8 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 Each
of the Lenders, on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates that are Secured Parties and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints JPMCB (or any successor appointed pursuant hereto) as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take
such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. 
 Any Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a
Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, unless the context otherwise requires or unless
such Person is in fact not a Lender, include each Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other
advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Loan Parties or any subsidiary of a Loan Party or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to
such activities, the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such
Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them. 
 The
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other
implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to
the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law and instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to
create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the
circumstances as provided in Section 9.02); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be 

  
 163 

 
required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable laws, and
(c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries
that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of
the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in
Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, in
connection with its duties expressly set forth herein. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by any Borrower or
any Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any
certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the
Collateral or the existence, value or sufficiency of the Collateral, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be
delivered to the Administrative Agent or (vii) the properties, books or records of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof. 
 Each
Lender agrees that, except with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, it will not take any enforcement action hereunder or under any other Loan Document, accelerate the Obligations under any Loan Documents, or exercise any right that it
might otherwise have under applicable law or otherwise to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales, any sale under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or other similar dispositions of Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a
Lender may take action to preserve or enforce its rights against a Loan Party where a deadline or limitation period is applicable that would, absent such action, bar enforcement of the Obligations held by such Lender, including the filing of proofs
of claim in a case under the Bankruptcy Code. 
 No holder of Secured Hedging Obligations shall have any rights in connection with the
management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Guarantor under this Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party agrees that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to
enforce the Loan Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties 

  
 164 

 
in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the other Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the event of a
foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or in the event of any other disposition (including pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code), (A) the Administrative Agent, as agent
for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale, to use and apply any of the
Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale or other disposition and (B) Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such
Collateral at any such sale or other disposition. 
 Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorizes (and by entering into a Hedge
Agreement with respect to Secured Hedging Obligations or by entering into documentation in connection with Banking Services Obligations, each of the other Secured Parties hereby authorizes and shall be deemed to authorize) the Administrative Agent,
on behalf of all Secured Parties to take any of the following actions upon the instruction of the Required Lenders: 
 (a) consent to the
sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the Collateral free and clear of the Liens securing the Secured Obligations in connection with any such sale or other transfer pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including
Section 363 thereof; 
 (b) credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Obligations, or purchase all or any portion of the Collateral,
(in each case, either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the Collateral pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under
Section 363 thereof; 
 (c) credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Obligations, or purchase all or any portion of the Collateral,
(in each case, either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or any portion of the Collateral pursuant to the applicable provisions of the UCC, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the UCC; 
 (d) credit bid all or any portion of
the Secured Obligations, or purchase all or any portion of the Collateral, (in each case, either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) in connection with any sale, foreclosure or other disposition conducted in accordance with
applicable law following the occurrence of an Event of Default, including by power of sale, judicial action or otherwise; and/or 
 (e)
estimate the amount of any contingent or unliquidated Secured Obligations of such Lender or other Secured Party; 
 it being understood that no Lender shall
be required to fund any amounts in connection with any purchase of all or any portion of the Collateral by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the foregoing clauses (b), (c) or (d) without its prior written consent. 

  
 165 

 Each Lender and other Secured Party agrees that the Administrative Agent is under no
obligation to credit bid any part of the Secured Obligations or to purchase or retain or acquire any portion of the Collateral; provided that, in connection with any credit bid or purchase under clause (b), (c) or (d) of the preceding
paragraph, the Secured Obligations owed to all of the Secured Parties (other than with respect to contingent or unliquidated liabilities as set forth in the next succeeding paragraph) shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the
Administrative Agent on a ratable basis. 
 With respect to each contingent or unliquidated claim that is a Secured Obligation, the
Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, but is not required, to estimate the amount of any such claim for purposes of the credit bid or purchase so long as the fixing or liquidation of such claim would not unduly delay the ability of the
Administrative Agent to credit bid the Secured Obligations or purchase the Collateral at such sale or other disposition. In the event that the Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, elects not to estimate any such contingent or
unliquidated claim or any such claim cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of the Administrative Agent to credit bid or purchase in accordance with the second preceding paragraph, then those of the contingent or unliquidated claims
not so estimated shall be disregarded, shall not be credit bid, and shall not be entitled to any interest in the portion or the entirety of the Collateral purchased by means of such credit bid. 

Each Secured Party whose Secured Obligations are credit bid under clauses (b), (c) or (d) of the third preceding paragraph shall be
entitled to receive interests in the Collateral or other asset or assets acquired in connection with such credit bid (or in the Capital Stock of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such acquisition) on a ratable basis in
accordance with the percentage obtained by dividing (x) the amount of the Secured Obligations of such Secured Party that were credit bid in such credit bid, sale or other disposition, by (y) the aggregate amount of all Secured Obligations
that were credit bid in such credit bid, sale or other disposition. 
 In addition, in case of the pendency of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, each Secured Party agrees that the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or LC Exposure shall then be due and payable as herein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC
Exposure and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts to the extent due to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.12 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

  
 166 

 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and 
 (c) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator,
sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making
of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any
other amount to the extent due to the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.12 and 9.03. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any
Lender or any Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any Issuing Bank in any such proceeding. 

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate,
consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the
proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance
with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition
is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The
Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of
any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers
by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and
exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and
any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent. 

  
 167 

 The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving ten days written notice to the
Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrowers. If the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, either the Required Lenders or the Borrowers may, upon ten days’ notice remove the Administrative Agent.
Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation or delivery of such removal notice, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrowers (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent
which shall be a commercial bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank having combined capital and surplus in excess of $1,000,000,000 and a “U.S. person” and a “financial institution” within the
meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1T(c); provided that during the existence and continuation of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a) or, with respect to
the Borrowers, Section 7.01(f) or (g), no consent of the Borrowers shall be required. If no successor shall have been so appointed as provided above and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the
retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then (a) in the case of a retirement, the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor
Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above or (b) in the case of a removal, the Borrowers may, after consulting with the Required Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above;
provided that (x) in the case of a retirement, if such Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment or (y) in the case of a removal, the Borrowers notify the
Required Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then, in each case, such resignation or removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that (a) solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to a retiring Administrative Agent in its capacity as
collateral agent under any Loan Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and, in the case of
any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this paragraph (it
being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duly or obligation to take any further action under any Loan Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and
(b) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or
through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuing Bank directly (and each Lender and Issuing Bank will cooperate with the Borrowers to enable the Borrowers to take such actions), until such time as the
Required Lenders or the Borrowers, as applicable, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, as provided for above in this Article 8 and meeting the qualifications set forth above. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative
Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor, unless
otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 

  
 168 

 
shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (a) above. 

Each Lender and Issuing Bank acknowledges and agrees that the extensions of credit made hereunder are commercial loans and letters of credit
and not investments in a business enterprise or securities. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank further represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and/or issuing letters of credit in the ordinary course of its
business and has, independently and without reliance upon either Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon either Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such
documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrowers and their Affiliates) as it shall from time to
time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder and in deciding whether or to
the extent to which it will continue as a Lender and/or Issuing Bank or assign or otherwise transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders
by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition
or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor the list or
identities of, or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to
whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential
information, to any Disqualified Institution. 
 Each Lender hereby agrees that (a) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by
or on behalf of the Administrative Agent; (b) Administrative Agent (i) makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report or any of the information contained therein or any inaccuracy
or omission contained in or relating to a Report and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; (c) the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Person performing any field examination
will inspect only specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel and that the Administrative Agent
undertakes no obligation to update, correct or supplement the Reports; (d) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share the 

  
 169 

 
Report with any Loan Party or any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement; and (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision
contained in this Agreement, (i) it will hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any
Report in connection with any extension of credit that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a Loan or Loans; and
(ii) it will pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by either Administrative Agent or such other Person as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender. 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Arrangers, the joint bookrunners, Syndication Agent and
Co-Documentation Agents shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an
Issuing Bank hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Persons shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to the relevant Lenders in their
respective capacities as Arranger, the joint bookrunner, Syndication Agent and Co-Documentation Agent, as applicable, as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in the preceding paragraph. 

The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions
of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender. 
 Each of the
Lenders and each Issuing Bank irrevocably authorize and instruct the Administrative Agent to, and the Administrative Agent shall, 

(a) release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon the
occurrence of the Termination Date, (ii) that is sold or to be sold or transferred as part of or in connection with any sale or other transfer permitted under the Loan Documents to a Person that is not a Loan Party, (iii) that does not
constitute (or ceases to constitute) Collateral, (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor, upon the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Loan Guaranty in accordance with the Loan Documents or
(v) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9.02; 

(b) release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary (or
becomes an Excluded Subsidiary, provided, however, that the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement if such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (a) of the
definition thereof shall only be permitted if at the time such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary of such type, (1) no 

  
 170 

 
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be outstanding, (2) after giving pro forma effect to such release and the consummation of the transaction or event that causes such Person
to be an Excluded Subsidiary of such type, the Borrower is deemed to have made a new Investment in such Person (as if such Person were then newly acquired) and such Investment is permitted at such time and (3) a Responsible Officer of the
Borrower Agent certifies to the Administrative Agent compliance with preceding clauses (1) and (2)) as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder; provided, further, that no such release shall occur if such Subsidiary Guarantor
continues to be a guarantor in respect of the Senior Notes, any Incremental Equivalent Debt, the Term Loan Facility or any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of any of the foregoing; and 

(c) subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder
of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(m), Section 6.02(n), Section 6.02(o) and, solely to the extent such Liens do not secure any Indebtedness for
borrowed money (other than Indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility, so long as such Indebtedness remains subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), Section 6.02(u). 

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent ’s authority
to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Loan Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Article 8 and Section 10.13 hereunder. In
each case as specified in this Article 8, the Administrative Agent will (and each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such
Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Loan Guarantor from
its obligations under the Loan Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Article 8. 
 The
Administrative Agent is authorized to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and any other intercreditor agreement contemplated hereby with respect to Indebtedness that is (i) required or permitted to be subordinated hereunder and/or
(ii) secured by Liens and which Indebtedness contemplates an intercreditor, subordination or collateral trust agreement (any such other intercreditor agreement, an “Additional Agreement”), and the parties hereto acknowledge
that the Intercreditor Agreement and any Additional Agreement is binding upon them. Each Lender (a) hereby consents to the subordination of the Liens on the Collateral other than the Revolving Facility First Lien Collateral securing the Secured
Obligations on the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, (b) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Agreement and (c) hereby
authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Agreement and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations to the provisions thereof. The foregoing provisions
are intended as an inducement to the Secured Parties to extend credit to the Borrowers and such Secured Parties are intended third-party beneficiaries of such provisions and the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Agreement.

  
 171 

 Each Lender and Issuer appoints and designates JPMCB as collateral agent hereunder and each
Lender and Issuing Bank hereby authorizes JPMCB to act as collateral agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents and authorizes JPMCB, as the Administrative Agent, to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such
powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and/or collateral agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In its capacity, the Administrative Agent and/or collateral agent
is a “representative” of the Secured Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code. Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into each of the Collateral
Documents to which it is a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents. The Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the
date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees that no Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security
granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the Collateral Documents. In the event that
any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any
Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. 

To the extent the Administrative Agent (or any affiliate thereof) is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrowers, the Lenders will
reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any affiliate thereof) in proportion to their respective Applicable Percentage (determined as if there were no Defaulting Lenders) for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent (or any affiliate thereof) in performing its duties
hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s (or such affiliate’s) gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
final and non-appealable decision). 
 JPMCB has adopted internal policies and procedures that
address requirements placed on federally regulated lenders under the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 and related legislation (the “Flood Laws”). JPMCB, as administrative agent or collateral agent on a syndicated
facility, will post on the applicable electronic platform (or otherwise distribute to each Lender in the syndicate) documents that it receives in connection with the Flood Laws. Each Lender and Participant acknowledges and agrees that, pursuant to
the Flood Laws, each federally regulated Lender (whether acting as a Lender or Participant in the facility) is responsible for assuring its own compliance with the flood insurance requirements.

(i) Each Loan Party agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make Communications (as defined below) available
to the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak, ClearPar or a substantially similar Electronic System. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand,
communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing
Banks by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Electronic System. 
 (ii) Any Electronic System
used by the Administrative Agent is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of such Electronic Systems and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the
Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from
viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or any Electronic System. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”)
have any liability to the Borrowers or the other Loan Parties, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses
(whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Borrower’s, any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through an Electronic System, except to the extent such liability is determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Agent Parties. 

Section 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder
or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or
remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this
Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by law, the making of a Loan or issuance of a
Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. 

  
 175 

 (b) Subject to clauses (A) and
(B) below and Section 2.14, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or
agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders), or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document (other than any such amendment to effectuate any
modification thereto expressly contemplated by the terms of such other Loan Documents), pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, with the
consent of the Required Lenders; provided that: 
 (A) notwithstanding the foregoing, no such agreement shall,
without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (but without the necessity of obtaining the consent of the Required Lenders), 

(1) increase the Commitment of such Lender (other than with respect to any Commitment Increase pursuant to
Section 2.23 in respect of which such Lender has agreed to be an Additional Lender); it being understood that no amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any condition precedent, representation,
warranty, covenant, Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall constitute an increase of any Commitment of such Lender; 

(2) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or postpone the date of any scheduled payment of interest or fees
payable hereunder; 
 (3) extend the scheduled final maturity of any Loan, extend the stated expiration date of any Letter
of Credit beyond the Maturity Date (in each case, other than extension for administrative reasons agreed by the Administrative Agent); 

(4) reduce the rate of interest (other than to waive any obligations of the Borrowers to pay interest at the default rate of
interest under Section 2.13(c)) or the amount of any fees owed to such Lender; it being understood that any change in the definition of Average Historical Excess Availability used in the calculations of such interest or
fees (or the component definitions) shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fees; 
 (5) extend the
expiry date of such Lender’s Commitment; it being understood that no amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any condition precedent, representation, warranty, covenant, Default, Event of Default, mandatory
prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall constitute an extension of any Commitment of such Lender; and 

(6) amend or modify the provisions of Sections 2.11(a), 2.11(c), 2.18(a) (with respect to pro rata allocation
among Lenders), 2.18(b) and 2.18(c) of this Agreement in a manner that would by its terms alter the order of payments or the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby (except as otherwise provided in this
Section 9.02); and 

  
 176 

 (B) notwithstanding the foregoing, no such agreement shall: 

(1) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definitions of “Required Lenders”, “Super Majority
Lenders” or “Super Majority FILO Lenders”, in each case, to reduce any of the voting percentages required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the prior
written consent of each Lender; 
 (2) release all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as otherwise permitted
herein or in the other Loan Documents, including pursuant to Article 8 or Section 10.12 hereof), without the prior written consent of each Lender; 

(3) release all or substantially all of the value of the Loan Guaranties (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other
Loan Documents, including pursuant to Section 10.13 hereof), without the prior written consent of each Lender; 
 (4)
enter into an amendment or waiver the effect of which would be to increase the percentages set forth in the definition of Trade Receivables Component, Inventory Component, and/or Credit Card Receivables Component, without the consent of the Super
Majority Lenders; 
 (5) change the definition of the term “ABL Borrowing Base”, or any component definition
thereof, the effect of which would be to increase amounts available to be borrowed, without the consent of the Super Majority Lenders; or 

(6) change the definition of “FILO Borrowing Base”, “FILO Line Cap” and the component definitions thereof
which would increase availability under the FILO Facility without the consent of the Super-Majority FILO Lenders; 
 provided, further, that
no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the
Swingline Lender, as the case may be. The Administrative Agent may also amend the Commitment Schedule to reflect assignments entered into pursuant to Section 9.04. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have
any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Commitment or Loan held or deemed held by
any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded from a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders, except as provided in Section 2.22(b)). 

  
 177 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.02, (i) guarantees,
collateral security agreements, pledge agreements and related documents (if any) executed by the Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be amended, supplemented
and/or waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrowers (or the Borrower Agent on behalf of Borrowers) without the input or need to obtain the consent of any other Lenders if such amendment or waiver is delivered
in order (x) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (y) to cure ambiguities, omissions or defects or (z) to cause such guarantees, collateral security agreements, pledge agreement or other document to be consistent with
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may, without the input or consent of any other Lender (other than each applicable Additional Lender, in the case of Section 2.23), effect
amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary in the reasonable opinion of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to effect the provisions of Sections 2.22 or 2.23 and (iii) if the Administrative Agent and
the Borrowers have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall be permitted to amend such provision.

 Section 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Arranger, the Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the actual reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of outside counsel to all such persons taken as a whole and, if necessary, of one counsel in any relevant
material jurisdiction to such Persons, taken as a whole) in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through an Electronic System) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the
preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents and related documentation, including in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of any Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions
contemplated thereby shall be consummated, but only to the extent such amendments, modifications or waivers were requested by the Borrowers to be prepared) and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, Issuing Banks or the Lenders and their respective Affiliates (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the actual
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of outside counsel to all such persons taken as a whole and, if necessary, of
one counsel in any relevant material jurisdiction to such persons, taken as a whole) in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in
connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder. Expenses reimbursable by the Borrowers under this Section include, subject to any other applicable provision of any Loan Document, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with: (A) appraisals and field examinations and the preparation of Reports based thereon, (B) the fees
charged by a third party retained by the Administrative Agent or (notwithstanding any reference to “out-of-pocket” above in this

  
 178 

 
Section 9.03) the internally allocated fees for each Person employed by the Administrative Agent with respect to each field examination, (C) lien and title searches and title insurance,
(D) taxes, fees and other charges for recording the Mortgages, filing financing statements and continuations, and other actions to perfect, protect, and continue the Administrative Agent’s Liens and (E) forwarding loan proceeds and
costs and expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral. Other than to the extent required to be paid on the Closing Date, all amounts due under this paragraph (a) shall be payable by the Borrowers within 30 days of receipt of an invoice
relating thereto, setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail and together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement requests. 

(b) The Borrowers shall indemnify each Arranger, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related
Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (but limited, in the case of legal
fees and expenses, to the actual reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to all Indemnitees taken as a whole and,
solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any relevant material jurisdiction to all Indemnitees, taken as a whole and,
solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional local counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of
(i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or any Letter of Credit (including any refusal by an Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in
connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) the failure of a Loan Party to deliver to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence with respect to a
payment made by a Loan Party for Taxes pursuant to Section 2.17 or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and
regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates); provided that such indemnity shall
not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are (i) determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any affiliate of such Indemnitee or, to the extent such judgment finds such Indemnitee in material breach of the Loan Documents or
(ii) arise out of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought by such Indemnitee (or its Related Parties) against another Indemnitee (or its Related Parties) (other than any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought
by or against the Administrative Agent, acting in its capacity as the Administrative Agent or any Arranger, acting in its capacity 

  
 179 

 
as an Arranger) that does not involve any act or omission of the Sponsors, Holdings, any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries. Each Indemnitee shall be obligated to refund or return any and all
amounts paid by any Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.03(b) to such Indemnitee for any fees, expenses, or damages to the extent such Indemnitee is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms
hereof. All amounts due under this paragraph (b) shall be payable by the Borrowers within 30 days (x) after written demand thereof, in the case of any indemnification obligations and (y) in the case of reimbursement of costs
and expenses, after receipt of an invoice relating thereto, setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail and together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement requests. This Section 9.03 shall not apply to Taxes other than
Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses arising from any non-Tax claim. Payments under this Section 9.03(b) shall be made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent
for the benefit of the relevant Indemnitee. 
 Section 9.04. Waiver of Claim. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no
party to this Agreement shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto or any Related Party thereof, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof,
except, in the case of the Borrowers, to the extent such damages would otherwise be subject to indemnification pursuant to the terms of Section 9.03. 

Section 9.05. Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Banks that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) except as provided under Section 6.08, the Borrowers may not assign or
otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any 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. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Banks that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated
hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

(b) (i) Subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph (a) above and the conditions set forth in paragraph
(b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior
written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed except in connection with a proposed assignment to any Disqualified Institution) of: 

  
 180 

 (A) the Borrower Agent; provided that, the Borrower Agent shall have
been deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 15 Business Days after receiving written notice thereof; provided, further, that no consent
of the Borrower Agent shall be required for an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a) or Section 7.01(f) or
(g) (with respect to the Borrowers only) has occurred and is continuing, any other Eligible Assignee; 
 (B) the
Administrative Agent; and 
 (C) each Issuing Bank (solely in the case of assignments of ABL Revolving Commitments and ABL
Revolving Loans). 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of
the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or the principal amount of 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 and determined on an aggregate basis in the event of concurrent assignments to Related Funds or by Related Funds (as defined below)) shall not be less
than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; 
 (B) each partial
assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an
electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually), and shall pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or
reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); and 
 (D) the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender,
shall deliver on or prior to the effective date of such assignment, to the Administrative Agent (1) an Administrative Questionnaire and (2) if applicable, any Internal Revenue Service forms required under
Section 2.17. 

  
 181 

 The term “Related Funds” shall mean with respect to any Lender that is an Approved Fund,
any other Approved Fund that is managed by the same investment advisor as such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor. 

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Eligible 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 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 with respect to facts and
circumstances occurring on or prior to the effective date of such assignment and subject to its obligations thereunder and under Section 9.13). If any such assignment by a Lender holding a Note hereunder occurs after the
issuance of any Note hereunder to such Lender, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender such Note to the Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon the
applicable Borrower shall issue and deliver a new Note, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments and/or outstanding Loans
of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender. 
 If any assignment or participation under this Section 9.05 is made to (1) any
Affiliate of any Disqualified Institution (other than any bona fide debt fund that is not itself a Disqualified Institution) or (2) any Disqualified Institution without the Borrower Agent’s prior written consent (any such Person, a
“Disqualified Person”), then the Borrower Agent may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Person and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Commitment of such Disqualified Person and
repay the outstanding amount of Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, accrued and unpaid fees and all other amounts owing to such Disqualified Person, (B) in the case of any outstanding Loans, purchase such Loans by paying
the lesser of (x) par and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Person paid to acquire such Loans, plus in the case of each of clauses (x) and (y), accrued and unpaid interest thereon, accrued and unpaid fees and all other amounts due
and payable to it hereunder and/or (C) require such Disqualified Person to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 9.05), all of its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lesser of (x) par and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Person paid to acquire such Loans, plus in the case of each of clauses (x) and (y), accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, accrued and unpaid fees and all other amounts due and payable to it hereunder; provided that (I) in the case of clauses (A) and (B), the Borrower Agent shall be liable to the relevant Disqualified Person under Section 2.16 if
any LIBO Rate Loan owing to such Disqualified Person is repaid or purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto and (II) in the case of clause (C), the relevant assignment shall otherwise comply with this
Section 9.05 (except that no registration and processing fee required under this Section 9.05 shall be required with any assignment pursuant to this paragraph).    Nothing in this Section 9.05 shall be deemed to
prejudice any right or remedy 

  
 182 

 
that Holdings or any Borrower may otherwise have at law or equity. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that Holdings and its Subsidiaries will suffer irreparable harm if such Lender breaches any
obligation under this Section 9.05 insofar as such obligation relates to any assignment or participation to any Disqualified Institution. Additionally, each Lender agrees that Holdings and/or either Borrower may seek to obtain specific
performance or other equitable or injunctive relief to enforce this paragraph against any Disqualified Person and the immediately following paragraph of this Section 9.05 against any Disqualified Institution, in each case with respect to such
breach without posting a bond or presenting evidence of irreparable harm. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, each Disqualified Institution (A) will not receive information provided solely to Lenders by any Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender and will not be permitted to attend or participate in conference calls or meetings
attended solely by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II
and (B) (x) for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any
departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with
respect to or under any Loan Document, shall not have any right to consent (or not consent), otherwise act or direct or require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to take (or refrain from taking) any such action, and all Loans held by any
Disqualified Institution shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders or all Lenders have taken any actions, except that no amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document shall, without
the consent of the applicable Disqualified Institution, deprive any Disqualified Institution of its pro rata share of any payment to which all Lenders of the applicable Class of Loans are entitled and (y) hereby agrees that if a proceeding
under any Debtor Relief Law shall be commenced by or against a Borrower or any other Loan Party, such Disqualified Institution will be deemed to vote in the same proportion as Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions. 

The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrowers hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent, to provide the
Disqualified Institutions List to each Lender requesting the same (provided that such Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Disqualified Institutions List (which agreement may be by way of a “click through” or other
affirmative action on the part of the recipient to access the Disqualified Institutions List and acknowledge its confidentiality obligations in respect thereof)). 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor the list or identities of,
or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions or Disqualified Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or
inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or Disqualified Person or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or
disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution or Disqualified Person. 

  
 183 

 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall
maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and the Commitment of, and principal
amount of and interest on the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect
the Borrowers’ obligations in respect of such Loans and LC Disbursements. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender and the owner of the amounts owing to it under the Loan Documents as reflected in the Register for all purposes of the Loan Documents, notwithstanding notice to
the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Issuing Banks and any Lender (but only as to its own holdings), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, the Eligible
Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and tax certifications required by Section 9.05(b)(ii)(D)(2) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to
in paragraph (b) of this Section, if applicable, and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall promptly 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. 

(vi) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be
deemed to confirm and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (A) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and
that its Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Revolving Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption, (B) except as set forth in
(A) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or the performance or
observance by the Borrowers or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (C) such assignee represents and warrants that it is an
Eligible Assignee, legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (D) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial
statements referred to in Section 3.04(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (E) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative 

  
 184 

 
Agent, such assigning Lender 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 decisions in taking or not
taking action under this Agreement; (F) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent, by
the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (G) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be
performed by it as a Lender. 
 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than any Disqualified Institution) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain
solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks 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 or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement
and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment,
modification or waiver described in (x) clause (A) to the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that directly and adversely affects the Loans or Commitments in which such Participant has an interest and
(y) clause (B) to the first proviso to Section 9.02(b). Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15,
2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 9.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. 

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15, 2.16 or
2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower Agent’s prior written
consent expressly acknowledging such Participant may receive a greater benefit. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Borrower
Agent is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender. 

  
 185 

 Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain at one of its offices a copy of a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Participant and their respective successors and assigns, and principal
amount of and interest on the Loans (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant
Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
(other than to any Disqualified Institution or natural person) to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over
such Lender, and this Section 9.05 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. 
 (e) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower Agent, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided that
(i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan; (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such
Loan pursuant to the terms hereof; and (iii) if an SPC elects to exercise such option and provides all or any part of such Loan, such SPC shall be recorded in the Register as the Lender with respect to the portion of a Loan made by such SPC.
The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor
the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 2.15, 2.16 or
2.17) and no SPC shall be entitled to any greater amount under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15 or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that the Granting Lender would have been
entitled to receive, (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender) and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes
including approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Loan Documents, remain the Lender of record hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the
termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in
instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof; provided that (i) in the case of the Borrowers, such SPC’s
Granting 

  
 186 

 
Lender is in compliance in all material respects with its obligations to the Borrowers hereunder and (ii) each Lender designating any SPC hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless
each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such SPC during such period of forbearance. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 9.05, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its
interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender, which assignment shall be recorded in the register, and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating
agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. 
 Section 9.06.
Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation
made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time
any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17, 9.03 and 9.13 and Article 8 shall
survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments, the occurrence of the
Termination Date or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof but in each case, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement. 

Section 9.07. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Fee Letter and any separate letter agreements
with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the
subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Holdings, the Borrowers, the Subsidiaries of the Borrowers party hereto and the
Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or by email as a “.pdf” or “.tif” attachment shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

  
 187 

 Section 9.08. Severability. To the extent permitted by law, any provision of any
Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower and Loan Guarantor, which information includes the name, address and tax
identification number of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and is

Section 9.19. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the
interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the
“Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all
Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall
be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 
 Section 9.20.
Intercreditor Agreement. REFERENCE IS MADE TO THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. EACH LENDER HEREUNDER (a) CONSENTS TO THE SUBORDINATION OF LIENS PROVIDED FOR IN THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, (b) AGREES THAT IT WILL BE BOUND BY AND

CREDIT AND SUCH LENDERS ARE INTENDED THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES OF SUCH PROVISIONS AND THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT.

 Section 9.21. Conflicts. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, in any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, any Letter of Credit application but excluding the Intercreditor Agreement), in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any other
Loan Document (including, without limitation, any Letter of Credit application but excluding the Intercreditor Agreement), the terms of this Agreement shall govern and control; provided that in the case of any conflict or inconsistency
between the Intercreditor Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.

 ARTICLE 10 

LOAN GUARANTY 

Section 10.01. Guaranty. Each Loan Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and, as primary obligor
and not merely as surety, and absolutely and unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties the full and prompt payment upon the failure of the
Borrowers to do so, when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured Obligations (collectively the “Guaranteed Obligations”;
provided, however, that the definition of “Guaranteed Obligations” shall not create any guarantee by any Loan Guarantor of (or grant of security interest by any Loan Guarantor to support, as applicable) any Excluded Swap
Obligations of such Loan Guarantor for purposes of determining any obligations of any Loan Guarantor). Each Loan Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further
assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. If any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations becomes due and payable hereunder, each Loan Guarantor, unconditionally and irrevocably, promises
to pay such indebtedness to the Administrative Agent and/or the other Secured Parties, on demand, together with any and all expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties in collecting any of the Guaranteed
Obligations to the extent reimbursable in accordance with Section 9.03. Each Loan Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Secured Parties whether or not due or
payable by the Borrowers upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Sections 7.01(f) or (g), and in such event, irrevocably and unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Secured Parties, on demand, in lawful
money of the United States. 
 Section 10.02. Guaranty of Payment. This Loan Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of
collection. Each Loan Guarantor waives any right to require the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to sue any Borrower, any other Loan Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations (each, an “Obligated Party”), or otherwise to enforce its rights in respect of any Collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Administrative Agent may enforce this Loan Guaranty
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 
 Section 10.03. No Discharge or Diminishment of Loan
Guaranty. 
 (a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, the obligations of each Loan Guarantor hereunder are
unconditional, irrevocable and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than as set forth in Section 10.13), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release,
extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other
guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Obligated Party, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any
obligation of any Obligated Party; (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Loan Guarantor may have at any time against any Obligated Party, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender, or any other Person,
whether in 

  
 196 

 
connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions; (v) any direction as to application of payments by any Borrower or by any other party; (vi) any other continuing or other guaranty,
undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking; (viii) any dissolution, termination or increase,
decrease or change in personnel by the Borrowers or (ix) any payment made to any Secured Party on the Guaranteed Obligations which any such Secured Party repays to any Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each Loan Guarantor waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding. 

(b) Except for termination of a Loan Guarantor’s obligations hereunder or as expressly permitted by
Section 10.13, the obligations of each Loan Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of
any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Obligated Party, of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof. 

(c) Further, the obligations of any Loan Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by:
(i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or
supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of the
Borrowers for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing
Bank or any Secured Party with respect to any Collateral securing any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any
other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Loan Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Loan Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than as set forth in
Section 10.13). 
 Section 10.04. Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
and except for termination of a Loan Guarantor’s obligations hereunder or as expressly permitted by Section 10.13, each Loan Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower or
any other Loan Guarantor or arising out of the disability of the Borrowers or any other Loan Guarantor or any other party or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation
from any cause of the liability of any Borrower or any other Loan Guarantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, including notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Loan Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or

  
 197 

 
additional Guaranteed Obligations, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Obligated Party, or any other Person including any right (except as
shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require any Secured Party to (i) proceed against any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Borrower,
any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Secured Party’s power whatsoever. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent permitted by applicable law), accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or
otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any Collateral securing all or a part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and the Administrative Agent may, at its election, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other
accommodation with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Obligated Party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Loan Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty except
as otherwise provided in Section 10.13. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to
applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Loan Guarantor against any Obligated Party or any security. 

Section 10.05. Authorization. The Loan Guarantors authorize the Secured Parties without notice or demand (except as shall be
required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder (except as set forth in Section 10.13), from time to time to: 

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase,
accelerate or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect
thereof, and this Loan Guaranty shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered; 
 (b)
take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to
secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset thereagainst; 

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or others or otherwise act or
refrain from acting;

other obligors; 
 (e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability
(including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrowers to their creditors
other than the Secured Parties; 

  
 198 

 (f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability
or liabilities of the Borrowers to the Secured Parties regardless of what liability or liabilities of the Borrowers remain unpaid; 

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any
Hedge Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein or therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Hedge Agreement or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or 

(h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable
discharge of the Loan Guarantors from their respective liabilities under this Loan Guaranty. 
 Section 10.06. Rights of
Subrogation. Any indebtedness of the Borrowers now or hereafter owing to any Loan Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the Obligations owing to the Secured Parties; and if the Administrative Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default
exists, all such indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Loan Guarantor shall be collected, enforced and received by such Loan Guarantor for the benefit of the Secured Parties and be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured
Parties on account of the Guaranteed Obligations to the Secured Parties, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of such Loan Guarantor under the other provisions of this Loan Guaranty. Prior to the transfer by any Loan
Guarantor of any note or negotiable instrument evidencing any such indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Loan Guarantor, such Loan Guarantor shall mark such note or negotiable instrument with a legend that the same is subject to this subordination.
No Loan Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any Loan Party or any collateral in respect of this Loan Guaranty until the
occurrence of the Termination Date. 
 Section 10.07. Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of
any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each Loan Guarantor’s obligations under this Loan Guaranty with
respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any
Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the other Loan Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent. 

Section 10.08. Information. Each Loan Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the
Borrowers’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Loan Guarantor assumes and incurs under this
Loan Guaranty, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Loan Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

 Section 10.09. [Reserved]. 

Section 10.10. Maximum Liability. It is the desire and intent of the Loan Guarantors and the Secured Parties that this Loan
Guaranty shall be enforced against the Loan Guarantors to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. The provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any
action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, Federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Loan Guarantor under this Loan
Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Loan Guarantor’s liability under this Loan Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Guaranty to
the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Loan Guarantors or the Secured Parties, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or
proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Loan Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). Each Loan Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum
Liability of each Loan Guarantor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder; provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Loan Guarantor’s
obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability. 
 Section 10.11. Contribution. In the event any Loan Guarantor (a
“Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this Loan Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any Collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Loan Guaranty, each other
Loan Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s
“Guarantor Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Article 10, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Guarantor
Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (a) such Non-
Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum
Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from the Borrowers after the Closing Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to
(b) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Loan Guarantors hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a
Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Loan Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Loan Guarantors from the Borrowers after the Closing Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this
provision shall affect any Loan Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Loan Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the Loan Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive

  
 200 

 
any contribution under this Loan Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the Secured Obligations until
the Termination Date. This provision is for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof. 

Section 10.12. Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Loan Guarantor under this Article 10 is in addition to and shall
be cumulative with all liabilities of such Loan Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Loan Guarantor is a party or in respect of any obligations or
liabilities of the other Loan Guarantors, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary. 

Section 10.13. Release of Loan Guarantors. Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02(b) to the
contrary, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and its Loan Guaranty shall be automatically released (i) upon the consummation of any transaction permitted hereunder if as a result thereof such
Subsidiary Guarantor shall cease to be a Subsidiary (or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary, provided, however, that the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement if such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes an Excluded
Subsidiary of the type described in clause (a) of the definition thereof shall only be permitted if at the time such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary of such type, (1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be outstanding, (2) after giving pro forma effect to such release and the consummation of the transaction or event that causes such Person to be an Excluded Subsidiary of such type, the Borrower is deemed to have made a new Investment in
such Person (as if such Person were then newly acquired) and such Investment is permitted at such time and (3) a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Agent certifies to the Administrative Agent compliance with preceding clauses (1) and
(2)); provided, further, that no such release shall occur if such Subsidiary Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of the Senior Notes, any Incremental Equivalent Debt, any Refinancing Equivalent Debt, the ABL Facility or
any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of any of the foregoing or (ii) upon the occurrence of the Termination Date. In connection with any such release, the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to any Loan Guarantor, at such
Loan Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Loan Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to the preceding sentence of this
Section 10.13 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent (other than to the Administrative Agent’s authority to deliver such documents). 

Section 10.14. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and
irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Loan Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified
ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 10.14 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 10.14 or otherwise under this Loan Guaranty voidable
under applicable law relating to fraudulent 

  
 201 

 
conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). Except as otherwise provided herein, the obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 10.14 shall remain
in full force and effect until the termination of all Swap Obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 10.14 constitute, and this Section 10.14 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other
agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
  

  
 202 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by
their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

4. Administration and Implementation of Plan

4.5. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Committee may delegate some or all of its authority with respect to the Plan and Awards to any executive officer of the Company or any other person or persons designated by the Committee, in each case, acting individually or as a committee, provided that the Committee may not delegate its authority hereunder to make awards to Employees who are (i) “officers” as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the 1934 Act, (ii) “covered employees” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code or (iii) officers or other Employees who are delegated authority by the Committee pursuant to this Section. Any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Committee specifies at the time of such delegation or thereafter. The Committee may at any time rescind the authority delegated to any person pursuant to this Section. Any action undertaken by any such person or persons in accordance with the Committee’s delegation of authority pursuant to this Section shall have the same force and effect as if undertaken directly by the Committee. 

5. Shares of Stock Subject to the Plan 
5.1. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 13, the total number of shares of Common Stock available for Awards and Prior Plan Awards under the Plan shall be 2,862,500 plus the number of shares that were authorized but unissued under the Prior Plans. 
5.2. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 13, (i) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for Awards that are intended to be Incentive Stock Options shall not exceed 1,362,500 and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for Awards that may be granted to any individual Participant shall not exceed 500,000 during any calendar year; provided that Options granted, if any, in connection with the one-time Option exchange approved by the Board in March 2015 shall not be included in determining whether the individual annual limit for any Participant has been reached for calendar year 2015.
5.3. If any shares subject to an Award or Prior Plan Award are forfeited or such Award otherwise terminates, any shares counted against the number of shares available for issuance pursuant to the Plan with respect to such Award or Prior Plan Award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture or termination, again be available for Awards under the Plan; provided, however, that the Committee may adopt procedures for the counting of shares relating to any Award to ensure appropriate counting, avoid double counting, and provide for adjustments in any case in which the number of shares actually distributed differs from the number of shares previously counted in connection with such Award. SARs or Restricted Stock Units to be settled in shares of Common Stock shall be counted in full against the number of shares available for award under the Plan, regardless of the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon settlement of the SAR or Restricted Stock Unit. If any shares subject to an Award or Prior Plan Award are retained or reacquired by the Company in payment of an exercise price or satisfaction of a withholding or other tax obligation in connection with any Award, such shares shall not be made available for future Awards under the Plan. 
5.4. Any shares issued hereunder may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares. Any shares issued by the Company through the assumption or substitution of outstanding grants in connection with the acquisition of another entity shall not reduce the maximum number of shares available for delivery under the Plan. 
6. Common Stock 
An Award of Common Stock is a grant by the Company of a specified number of shares of Common Stock to the Participant, which shares are not subject to forfeiture except as set forth in Section 21. Upon the Award of Common Stock, the Committee may direct the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award be issued to the Participant, designating the Participant as the registered owner. The Participant shall have all of the customary rights of a stockholder with respect to the Award of Common Stock, including the right to vote shares of the Common Stock and receive dividends with respect to the Common Stock. 

7. Deferred Stock 
An Award of Deferred Stock is an agreement by the Company to deliver to the Participant a specified number of shares of Common Stock at the end of a specified Deferral Period or Periods. Such an Award shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 
7.1. Upon the Award of Deferred Stock, the Committee shall direct that the number of shares subject to such Award be credited to the Participant’s account on the books of the Company but that issuance and delivery of the same shall be deferred until the date or dates provided in the Award Agreement. Prior to issuance and delivery of the Deferred Stock, the Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Deferred Stock credited to the Participant’s account. 
7.2. During the Deferral Period, no dividend shall be paid with respect to shares covered by a Deferred Stock Award and the Participant shall have no future right to any dividend paid during the Deferral Period. 
7.3. The Deferral Period may consist of one or more installments. Provided that the Deferred Stock has not been previously forfeited, at the end of the Deferral Period or any installment thereof, the shares of Deferred Stock applicable to such installment, shall be issued and delivered to the Participant (or, where appropriate, the Participant’s legal representative) in accordance with the terms of the Award Agreement. 
8. Restricted Stock 
An Award of Restricted Stock is a grant by the Company of a specified number of shares of Common Stock to the Participant, which shares are subject to forfeiture upon the happening of specified events. Such an Award shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 
8.1. Upon the Award of Restricted Stock, the Committee may direct the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award be issued to the Participant or placed in a restricted stock account (including an electronic account) with the transfer agent and in either case designating the Participant as the registered owner. The certificate(s), if any, representing such shares shall be physically or electronically legended, as applicable, as to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or other encumbrances during the Restriction Period and, if issued to the Participant, returned to the Company to be held in escrow during the Restriction Period. In all cases, the Participant shall sign a stock power endorsed in blank to the Company to be held in escrow during the Restriction Period. 
8.2. During the Restriction Period, the Participant shall have the right to vote shares of Restricted Stock. During the Restriction Period, no dividend shall be paid with respect to the number of shares covered by a Restricted Stock Award and the Participant shall have no future right to any dividend paid during the Restriction Period. 

8.3. Provided that the Restricted Stock has not been previously forfeited, at the end of the Restriction Period the restrictions imposed under the Award Agreement shall lapse with respect to the number of shares specified thereunder, and the legend, if any, imposed hereunder shall be removed and such number of shares delivered to the Participant (or, where appropriate, the Participant’s legal representative). 
9. Restricted Stock Units 
An Award of Restricted Stock Units is a grant by the Company of the right to receive a payment in Common Stock or in cash, or in a combination thereof, that is equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date of vesting or payment, as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, which right is subject to forfeiture upon the happening of specified events. Such an Award shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 
9.1. Any amount payable upon the end of the Restriction Period with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit shall be paid by the Company in shares of Common Stock, in cash or in a combination of shares of Common Stock and cash, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion or as set forth in the Award Agreement. 
9.2. Provided that the Restricted Stock Units have not been previously forfeited, at the end of the Restriction Period the restrictions imposed under the Award Agreement shall lapse with respect to the number of Restricted Stock Units specified thereunder, and shares of Common Stock or cash with a value equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock underlying such Restricted Stock Units shall be delivered to the Participant (or, where appropriate, the Participant’s legal representative). 
10. Options 
Options give a Participant the right to purchase a specified number of shares of Common Stock from the Company for a specified time period at a fixed price. Options may be either Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options. The grant of Options shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 
10.1. Option Price: The price per share at which Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of an Option shall be determined by the Committee, but shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant (or 110% of such Fair Market Value in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder), unless the Option was granted through the assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by an entity acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate or with which the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate combines. 
10.2. Term of Options: The term of an Option shall in no event be greater than ten years (five years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder). 

10.3. Incentive Stock Options: Each provision of the Plan and each Award Agreement relating to an Incentive Stock Option shall be construed so that each Incentive Stock Option shall be an incentive stock option as defined in Section 422 of the Code, and any provisions of an Award Agreement that cannot be so construed shall be disregarded. In no event may a Participant be granted an Incentive Stock Option which does not comply with the grant and vesting limitations prescribed by Section 422(b) of the Code. Incentive Stock Options may not be granted to Employees of Affiliates or to Consultants or Non-Employee Directors. 
10.4. Payment of Option Price: The option price of the shares of Common Stock received upon the exercise of an Option shall be paid within three days of the date of exercise: (i) in cash, or (ii) with the proceeds received from a broker-dealer whom the Participant has authorized to sell all or a portion of the Common Stock covered by the Option, or (iii) with the consent of the Committee, in whole or in part in Common Stock held by the Participant and valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise. With the consent of the Committee, payment upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Option may be made in whole or in part by Restricted Stock held by the Participant and valued at Fair Market Value on the date the Option is exercised. In such case, the Common Stock to which the Option relates shall be subject to the same forfeiture restrictions originally imposed on the Restricted Stock exchanged therefor. An Option may be exercised only for a whole number of shares of Common Stock. 
 
11. Stock Appreciation Rights 
SARs give the Participant the right to receive, upon exercise of the SAR, the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of exercise over (ii) the grant price of the SAR as determined by the Committee, but which may never be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. The grant of SARs shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 
11.1. The term of a SAR shall in no event be greater than ten years. 
11.2. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which a SAR may be exercised in whole or in part, the method of exercise, the method of settlement, form of consideration payable in settlement, method by which Common Stock will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants, whether or not a SAR shall be in tandem with any other Award, and any other terms and conditions of any SAR. 
11.3. The Committee may provide that a SAR shall be deemed to be exercised at the close of business on the scheduled expiration date of such SAR. 
12. Qualified Performance-Based Awards. 

To the extent the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with the deductibility limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code applicable to Qualified Performance-Based Awards, the following rules shall apply: 
12.1. Only an Employee who is a “covered employee” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code shall be eligible to receive Qualified Performance-Based Awards. The Committee shall designate in its sole discretion which covered employees will be Participants for a Performance Cycle within the earlier of (i) the first 90 days of a Performance Cycle and (ii) the lapse of 25% of the Performance Cycle. 
12.2. The Committee shall establish in writing within the earlier of (i) the first 90 days of a Performance Cycle and (ii) the lapse of 25% of the Performance Cycle, and in any event, while the outcome is substantially uncertain, (A) Performance Goals for the Performance Cycle, and (B) in respect of such Performance Goals, a minimum acceptable level of achievement below which no payment will be made or no Award shall vest or become exercisable, and an objective formula or other method for determining the amount of any payment to be made or the extent to which an Award hereunder shall vest or become exercisable if performance is at or above such minimum acceptable level but falls short of the maximum achievement of the specified Performance Goals. 
12.3. Following the completion of a Performance Cycle, the Committee shall review and certify in writing whether, and to what extent, the Performance Goals for the Performance Cycle have been achieved and, if so, to also calculate and certify in writing the amount of the Qualified Performance-Based Awards earned for the Performance Cycle based upon the Performance Goals and the related formulas or methods as determined pursuant to Section 12.2. The Committee shall then determine the actual amount payable or the extent to which an Award is vested or exercisable as a result of attainment of such Performance Goals under each Participant’s Award for the Performance Cycle, and, in doing so, may reduce or eliminate, except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, the amount of the Award. In no event shall the Committee have the authority to increase Award amounts to any covered employee under a Qualified Performance-Based Award. 
12.4. A Qualified Performance-Based Award granted, vesting or becoming exercisable with respect to a Performance Cycle shall be paid (unless such Award is subject to the Participant’s exercise, which exercise such Participant has not effectuated) as soon as practicable following completion of the certification described in Section 12.3 but in no event later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the applicable Performance Cycle ends. 
 
13. Adjustments upon Changes in Capitalization 
13.1. In order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants under the Plan as a result of any stock dividend, recapitalization, forward stock split or reverse stock split, reorganization, division, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase or share exchange, extraordinary or unusual cash distribution or other similar corporate transaction or 

event that affects the Common Stock, the Committee shall adjust (i) the number and kind of shares of Common Stock which may thereafter be issued in connection with Awards or Prior Plan Awards, (ii) the number and kind of shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of outstanding Awards or Prior Plan Awards, (iii) the aggregate number and kind of shares of Common Stock available under the Plan, and (iv) the exercise or grant price relating to any Award or Prior Plan Award. Any such adjustment shall be made in an equitable manner which reflects the effect of such transaction or event. It is provided, however, that in the case of any such transaction or event, the Committee may make any additional adjustments to the items in (i) through (iv) above which it deems appropriate in the circumstances, or make provision for a cash payment with respect to any outstanding Award or Prior Plan Award; and it is provided, further, that no adjustment shall be made under this Section that would cause the Plan to violate Section 422 of the Code with respect to Incentive Stock Options or that would adversely affect the status of any Award or Prior Plan Award that is “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. 
13.2. In addition, the Committee is authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards, including any Performance Goals, in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, events described in Section 13.1) affecting the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate, or in response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made in any outstanding Awards to the extent that such adjustment would adversely affect the intended status of the Award as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. 
14. Termination and Amendment 
14.1. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan without the consent of the Company’s stockholders or Participants (including with retroactive effect), except that any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, or termination shall be subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders if (i) such action would increase the number of shares subject to the Plan, (ii) such action results in the repricing, replacement or repurchase of any Option or SAR, or (iii) such stockholder approval is required by any federal or state law or regulation or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Common Stock may then be listed or quoted, in each case, except as provided in Section 13.1. The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate, any Award theretofore granted and any Award Agreement relating thereto (including with retroactive effect). 
14.2. The foregoing notwithstanding, any Performance Goal or other performance condition specified in connection with an Award shall not be deemed a fixed contractual term, but shall remain subject to adjustment by the Committee, in its discretion at any time in view of the Committee’s assessment of the Company’s strategy, performance of comparable companies, and other circumstances, except to the extent that any such adjustment to a performance 

condition would adversely affect the intended status of an Award as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. 
 
15. No Right to Award, Employment or Service 
Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director any right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate. For purposes of the Plan, transfer of employment or service between the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall not be deemed a termination of employment or service. 
16. Taxes 
The Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate is authorized to withhold from any payment relating to an Award under the Plan, including from a distribution of Common Stock or any payroll or other payment to a Participant amounts of withholding and other taxes due in connection with any transaction involving an Award, and to take such other action as the Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company, the Subsidiary or Affiliate and Participants to satisfy obligations for the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to any Award. This authority shall include authority to withhold or receive Common Stock or other property and to make cash payments in respect thereof in satisfaction of a Participant’s tax obligations. Withholding of taxes in the form of shares of Common Stock shall not occur at a rate that exceeds the minimum required statutory federal and state withholding rates (except as otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion). Participants who are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16 of the 1934 Act may elect to pay all or a portion of any withholding or other taxes due in connection with an Award by directing the Company to withhold shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be received in connection with such Award. 
17. Limits on Transferability; Beneficiaries 
No Award or other right or interest of a Participant under the Plan shall be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to, or in favor of, or subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to, any party, other than the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate, or assigned or transferred by such Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and such Awards and rights shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant or his or her guardian or legal representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its discretion, provide that Awards or other rights or interests of a Participant granted pursuant to the Plan (other than an Incentive Stock Option) be transferable, without consideration, to immediate family members (i.e., children, grandchildren or spouse), to trusts for the benefit of such immediate family members and to partnerships in which such family members are the only partners. The Committee may attach to such transferability feature such terms and conditions as it deems advisable. In addition, a Participant may, in the manner 

established by the Committee, designate a beneficiary (which may be a person or a trust) to exercise the rights of the Participant, and to receive any distribution, with respect to any Award upon the death of the Participant. A beneficiary, guardian, legal representative or other person claiming any rights under the Plan from or through any Participant shall be subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to such Participant, except as otherwise determined by the Committee, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee. 
18. No Rights to Awards; No Stockholder Rights 
No Participant shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants. No Award shall confer on any Participant any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until Common Stock is duly issued or transferred to the Participant in accordance with the terms of the Award. 
19. Foreign Nationals. 
Without amending the Plan, Awards may be granted to Employees, Consultants and Non-Employee Directors who are foreign nationals or are employed or providing services outside the United States or both, on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable to further the purpose of the Plan. Moreover, the Committee may approve such supplements to, or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of, the Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such purposes without thereby affecting the terms of the Plan as in effect for any other purpose, provided that no such supplements, amendments, restatements or alternative versions shall include any provisions that are inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as then in effect, unless the Plan could have been amended to eliminate such inconsistency without further approval by the stockholders of the Company. 
20. Securities Law Requirements 
20.1. No Award or Prior Plan Award shall be exercisable if the Company shall at any time determine that (a) the listing upon any securities exchange, registration or qualification under any state or federal law of any Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon such exercise, or (b) the consent or approval of any regulatory body or the satisfaction of withholding tax or other withholding liabilities, is necessary or appropriate in connection with such exercise. In any of the events referred to in clause (a) or clause (b) above, the exercisability of such Awards or Prior Plan Awards shall be suspended and shall not be effective unless and until such withholding, listing, registration, qualifications or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company in its sole discretion, notwithstanding any termination of any Award or Prior Plan Award or any portion of any Award or Prior Plan Award during the period when exercisability has been suspended. 

20.2. The Committee may require, as a condition to the right to exercise any Award or Prior Plan Award that the Company receive from the Participant, at the time any such Award or Prior Plan Award is exercised, vests or any applicable restrictions lapse, representations, warranties and agreements to the effect that the shares are being purchased or acquired by the Participant for investment only and without any present intention to sell or otherwise distribute such shares and that the Participant will not dispose of such shares in transactions which, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, would violate the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as then amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder. The certificates issued to evidence such shares shall bear appropriate legends summarizing such restrictions on the disposition thereof. 
21. Recoupment 
Any Award granted pursuant to the Plan shall be subject to mandatory repayment by the Participant to the Company pursuant to the terms of any Company “clawback” or recoupment policy directly applicable to the Plan and (i) set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement or (ii) required by law to be applicable to the Participant. 
22. Termination 
Unless the Plan previously shall have been terminated by action of the Board, the Plan shall terminate on the 10-year anniversary of the Effective Date, and no Awards under the Plan shall thereafter be granted. 
23. Fractional Shares 
The Company will not be required to issue any fractional shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Plan. The Committee may provide for the elimination of fractions and for the settlement of fractions in cash. 
24. Governing Law 
To the extent that Federal laws do not otherwise control, the validity and construction of the Plan and any Award Agreement entered into thereunder shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California, but without giving effect to the choice of law principles thereof.
