Loans made on the Restatement Effective Date must be provided to Administrative Agent and each Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pacific time) two (2) Business Days prior to the Restatement Effective Date and (y) each other Loan Notice must
be provided to Administrative Agent and each Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pacific time) five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed Funding Date. 

(b) Each Loan Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower. Borrower shall, as provided in
Section 2.10, indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense reasonably incurred by such Lender or its Affiliates as a result of any failure by Borrower to borrow such Loan on the date specified in such Loan Notice. 

(c) Each Lender shall, before 1:00 p.m. on the Funding Date, make available for the account of its Lending Office to
Administrative Agent (to an account designated by Administrative Agent), in immediately available funds, such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Loan. After Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds (regardless of whether it shall have
received funds from all Lenders) and upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02,3.02 or
Section 3.04, as applicable, in each case subject to
Section 2.13, Administrative Agent will make such funds as it has received available to Borrower by depositing such funds into the account specified in the Loan Notice. 

2.03 Repayment of Loans. Borrower shall repay to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders the principal amount of the Loans
together with all accrued and unpaid fees and interest, and the Loans shall mature, (i) in the case of Tranche D Loans, on the Tranche D Maturity Date and (ii) in the case
of all other Loans, on the Stated Maturity Date. 

  
  

25 

 2.04 Interest. 

(a) Interest Payments. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the Funding Date of such
Loan until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at a rate per annum for each Interest Period equal to the Applicable Rate for such Interest Period. Accrued interest on each Loan is payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of
each calendar quarter, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Funding Date of such Loan, on the Stated Maturity Date (or, in the case of Tranche D Loans, on the Tranche D Maturity
Date), and thereafter, on demand. The Applicable Rate shall be computed on a year of 360 days and for each day elapsed in the applicable Interest Period. Interest (including the default interest set forth below) shall be due and payable in
accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 

(b) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at
Required Lenders’ option, after written notice (or automatically while an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or (h) has occurred and is continuing), Borrower shall pay on demand (and in any event in
arrears on the date such amount shall be due and payable hereunder) interest on: 
 (i) the unpaid principal amount of
each Loan, at a rate per annum equal at all times to the Default Rate, from the date of occurrence of such Event of Default or date of notice from Required Lenders (at their election) and to the extent there is a period between the date of
occurrence of an Event of Default and the date that Borrower delivers notice of such Event of Default to Administrative Agent under Section 5.01(b)(iv) (the “Initial Default Period”), then Required Lenders may
also elect at their option to charge interest at the Default Rate for the Initial Default Period; and 
 (ii) the amount
of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable on demand (and in any event in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in
full) at a rate per annum equal at all times to the Default Rate. 
 2.05 Reduction of Commitments; Voluntary and Mandatory Prepayments of
Loans. 
 (a) Termination or Reduction of Commitments. Borrower shall have the right, from time to time, upon not
less than four (4) Business Days’ notice to Administrative Agent, to terminate the Tranche B Commitments or the Tranche CD Commitments or, from time to time,
reduce the amount of the Tranche B Commitments or the Tranche CD Commitments. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof and
shall reduce permanently and ratably the applicable relevant Commitment then in effect. 

  
  

26 

 (b) Voluntary Prepayment. Borrower may, upon notice to Administrative
Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Loans in whole or in part (i) upon payment of the Prepayment Premium, if such prepayment is to be made on or prior to the first anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date, or
(ii) without premium or penalty, if such prepayment is to be made following the first anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date; provided that (i) such notice must be received by Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. no
less than five (5) Business Days prior to the date of the proposed prepayment, (ii) any prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the entire principal amount of the Loans then outstanding or, if less,
$5,000,0001,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000100,000
in excess thereof (or in each case, such lesser amount as agreed by the Lenders), and (iii) if such prepayment is less than the entire outstanding principal amount of the Loans, such
notice shall specify the amount of each Tranche of Loans to be prepaid. If such notice is given by Borrower, Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.05(b) if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of all or a portion of the
Facility, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed 
 (c) Prepayment from Proceeds of
Qualifying IPO or Extraordinary Proceeds Event. Borrower shall within ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence of any Qualifying IPO or Extraordinary Proceeds Event, make an offer to prepay the Loans (a “Prepayment
Offer”) in an amount equal to, in the case of a Qualifying IPO, the entire outstanding principal amount of the Loans, and in the case of an Extraordinary Proceeds Event, the least of (x) the amount of the Extraordinary Proceeds
therefrom, (y) the entire principal amount of the Loans outstanding on the date of prepayment, and (z) such other amount as may be selected by Required Lenders (such applicable amount, the “Prepayment Amount”). 

(i) Each such Prepayment Offer shall remain open for a period of at least twenty (20) Business Days following its
commencement (the “Prepayment Offer Period”) and shall state (A) in the case of an Extraordinary Proceeds Event, in reasonable detail the nature and amount of the Extraordinary Proceeds therefrom and the date of receipt
thereof by Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, (B) that the Prepayment Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) and the Prepayment Offer Period, including the time and date the Prepayment Offer will terminate (the
“Prepayment Offer Termination Date”), (C) that any Lender electing to have any Loans prepaid pursuant to the Prepayment Offer shall be required to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent on or before the Prepayment Offer
Termination Date and (D) that any Lender shall be entitled to withdraw its election if Administrative Agent receives, not later than the Business Day prior to the Prepayment Offer Termination Date, notice that such Lender is withdrawing its
election to have its Loans prepaid. 

  
  

27 

 (ii) Such prepayment shall be made to each Lender electing to have its Loans
prepaid in accordance with clause (i) above, in the case of a Qualifying IPO, no later than 365 days after the date of such Qualifying IPO, and in the case of an Extraordinary Proceeds Event, no later than five (5) Business
Days after the Prepayment Offer Termination Date. Such prepayment shall be made without premium or penalty, in all cases. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower’s failure to comply with this paragraph shall not relieve it of any obligation to
make any such prepayment. 
 (d) Prepayment and Commitment Reduction from Proceeds of Ontario Pellets Working Capital
Credit Facility. Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after any Ontario Pellets Entity receives the proceeds of any loan made pursuant to any Ontario Pellets Working Capital Credit Facility, (i) prepay the outstanding
principal of the Tranche B Loans by an amount equal to such proceeds (but only to the extent such outstanding principal amount constitutes Ontario Pellets Working Capital Funding), without premium or penalty, and (ii) if after giving effect to
such prepayment no Tranche B Loans constituting Ontario Pellets Working Capital Funding remain outstanding, reduce the undrawn Tranche B Commitments by the amount of such proceeds not applied to such prepayment of Tranche B Loans. Borrower shall
have no further prepayment or commitment reduction obligations under this Section 2.05(d) on and after the date that the combination of prepayments of Tranche B Loans and reduction of Tranche B Commitments made under this
Section 2.05(d) exceeds $15,000,000. 
 (e) Prepayment from Proceeds of Ontario Pellets Excess Cash
Flow. Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after quarterly financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to subsection 5.01(b)(i) hereof, commencing with the Fiscal Quarter ending March 31, 2016 (or,
if earlier, the first Fiscal Quarter in which the closing occurs for an Ontario Pellets Working Capital Credit Facility), prepay the outstanding principal of the Tranche B Loans by an amount equal to 50% of the Ontario Pellets Excess Cash Flow for
the relevant Fiscal Quarter without premium or penalty. On and after the date that the Tranche B Loans have been paid in full, Borrower shall have no further prepayment obligations under this Section 2.05(e). 

(f)
Prepayment from Pasadena Proceeds. Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after the Borrower, the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any Issuer Entity) receives
any Pasadena Proceeds, (i) prepay the outstanding principal of the Tranche D Loans by an amount equal to the amount of such Pasadena Proceeds, without premium or penalty, and (ii) if after giving effect to such prepayment no Tranche D
Loans remain outstanding, reduce the undrawn Tranche D Commitments by the amount of such proceeds not applied to such prepayment of Tranche D Loans. For the avoidance of doubt, the obligations in the preceding sentence shall apply to any Pasadena
Proceeds, whether received before, on or after the First Amendment Effective Date. On and after the date that the Tranche D Loans have been paid in full and Tranche D Commitments have been reduced to zero, Borrower shall have no further prepayment
or other obligations under this Section 2.05(f). 
 (g) (f) General. All
prepayments of Loans made under this Agreement, whether voluntary or mandatory, shall be made together with payment of accrued interest on the amount of principal so prepaid, fees and any amount required pursuant to Section 2.10.

  
  

28 

 2.06 Fees; Default Premium.

 (a) Agency Fee. Borrower shall pay an annual agency fee of $50,000 (the “Agency Fee”) to
Administrative Agent for its own account. The first annual Agency Fee was paid on the Original Closing Date and each subsequent annual Agency Fee shall be paid in immediately available funds on each anniversary of the Original Closing Date until the
earlier of (i) the Stated Maturity Date or (ii) the date on which the Loans are fully prepaid pursuant to Section 2.05. The Agency Fee shall not be subject to reduction by way of set-off or counterclaim and shall be
fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 

(b) Default
Premium. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the simultaneous or subsequent acceleration of the Loans (or failure to repay such Loans at maturity) and termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 6.01, the
Borrower shall pay to each Lender a fee (the “Default Premium”) in an amount equal to the product of (i) 7.5% and (ii) the sum of (x) such Lender’s Loans and (y) such Lender’s Tranche D
Commitments (if any), in each case outstanding immediately prior to such acceleration (or maturity) or cancellation; provided that following the occurrence of the Merger Closing Date and the repayment in full of the Tranche D Loans and the
termination in full of the Tranche D Commitments, this Section 2.06(b) shall be of no further force and effect. 

2.07 Increased Costs. 

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

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

(ii) subject any Lender Party to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, or any Loan made by it, or
change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender Party in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes described in clauses (a)(ii) and (b) through (d) of the definition
of “Excluded Taxes”); or 
 (iii) impose on any Lender Party or the London interbank market any
other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any Loan made hereunder; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to
increase the cost to such Lender Party, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender Party hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender Party, Borrower will pay to such
Lender Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender Party for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

  
  

29 

 (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law
affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of
such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but
for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c)
Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender Party setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender Party or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Subsection (a) or
(b) of this Section and delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender Party the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt
thereof. 
 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender Party to demand compensation pursuant to
this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender Party’s right to demand such compensation; provided that that Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender Party pursuant to Section 2.07(a)
for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender Party notifies Borrower, in writing of the increased costs and of such Lender Party’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided,
further, that if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

(e) Survival. All of Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.07 shall survive termination of
the Facility, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent. 
 2.08 Taxes.

 (a) Payments Free of Taxes. 

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of a Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to
the extent permitted by applicable Laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If, however, applicable Laws require a Loan Party or Administrative Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld
or deducted in accordance with such Laws as determined in the good faith discretion of such Loan Party or Administrative Agent, as the case may be. 

  
  

30 

 (ii) If a Loan Party or Administrative Agent shall be required by the Internal
Revenue Code or applicable Law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) Administrative Agent or such Loan Party shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by Administrative Agent or such Loan Party, as the case
may be, to be required, (B) Administrative Agent or such Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code or such applicable Law, and
(C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) each Lender Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes. Without limiting or duplication of the provisions of Subsection (a) above,
the Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law. 

(c) Indemnification. 

(i) Without limiting or duplication of the provisions of Subsection (a) or (b) above,
each Loan Party shall, and does hereby, indemnify each Lender Party, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) withheld or deducted by such Loan Party or Administrative Agent or paid by such Lender Party, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or
with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender Party
(with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(ii) Without limiting or duplication of the provisions of Subsection (a) or (b) above,
each Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties,
interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent by any Governmental Authority as a result of the failure by such Lender to deliver, or
as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender to Administrative Agent pursuant to Subsection (e). Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and
apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). The agreements in this clause
(ii) shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by a Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. 

  
  

31 

 (d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by Borrower or Administrative
Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party or by Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 2.08, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent or Administrative
Agent shall deliver to Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such
payment reasonably satisfactory to Borrower or Administrative Agent, as the case may be. 
 (e) Status of Lenders.
(i) Each Lender shall deliver to Borrower and to Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement or when reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed
and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably requested information as will permit Borrower or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine
(A) whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption
from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by any Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable
jurisdiction. Each Lender shall promptly (A) notify Borrower and Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction, and (B) take such steps as shall not be
materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any jurisdiction that any Loan Party
or Administrative Agent make any withholding or deduction for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than
such documentation set forth in Section 2.08(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would
subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

(ii) Without limiting or duplication of the foregoing, 

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

  
  

32 

 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to Borrower and 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 Borrower or 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 IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable
(or applicable successor form), 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 IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or applicable successor form), 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 Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the
Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the
Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or applicable successor form); 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 or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or applicable successor form), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS Form W-9, or other
certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect 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 G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

  
  

33 

 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do
so, deliver to Borrower and 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 Borrower or 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 Borrower or 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 Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i)
of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Loan Parties and 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 paragraph, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA
after the date of this Agreement. 
 (iii) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered
expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(iv) If Administrative Agent is a U.S. Person, it shall deliver to Borrower two executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying
that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax. Otherwise, Administrative Agent (including any successor Administrative Agent that is not a U.S. Person) shall deliver to Borrower two duly completed copies of Form W-8IMY certifying that
it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with
the Loan Parties to be treated as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments (and the Loan Parties and Administrative Agent agree to so treat Administrative Agent as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments), with the effect that the Loan
Parties can make payments to Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States. 

  
  

34 

 (f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at
no time shall Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender Party, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender Party, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such
Lender Party. If Administrative Agent or any Lender Party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to
which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Loan Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan
Party under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or such Lender Party, as the case may be, and without interest (other
than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of Administrative Agent or such Lender Party, 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 Administrative Agent or such Lender Party in the event Administrative Agent or such Lender Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental
Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subsection (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Subsection (f) the payment of
which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise
imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Subsection shall not be construed to require Administrative Agent or any Lender Party to make available its tax returns
(or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person. 
 (g)
Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.08, the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA. 

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.08 shall survive termination of the
Facility, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent. 

(i)
Grandfather Status. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the First Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat
(and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Loans as not qualifying as “grandfathered obligations” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i). 

  
  

35 

 2.09 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender
shall notify Administrative Agent and Borrower that any Law makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender to perform its obligations to make or maintain Loans hereunder, the
obligation of such Lender to make or maintain its Ratable Share of the Loans shall be terminated and all Loans of such Lender, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement to such Lender shall become due and payable. Any
Lender that becomes aware of circumstances that would permit such Lender to notify Administrative Agent of any illegality under this Section 2.09 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and
regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if the making of such change would avoid or eliminate such illegality and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

 2.10 Compensation for Losses. Borrower agrees to compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth in
reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation), for all reasonable and documented losses, expenses and liabilities (including any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other
funds required by such Lender to fund its Loan but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (a) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or Administrative Agent) a borrowing does not occur on the date
specified therefor in the applicable Loan Notice; (b) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment or repayment made pursuant to Sections 2.03 or 2.05 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans
pursuant to Section 6.01) occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; (c) if any prepayment of any Loan is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Borrower;
or (d) as a consequence of any other default by Borrower to repay any Loan when required by the terms of this Agreement. Such loss, expense or liability to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the
amount (if any) by which (x) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Eurodollar Rate that would have been applicable to the Loan (which, for the avoidance of doubt,
will not include the Spread applicable thereto), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the applicable Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, for the period that would have been the initial Interest
Period for the Loan) exceeds (y) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for Dollar deposits of a
comparable amount and period from banks in the London interbank market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be delivered to
Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The obligation of Borrower in this clause shall survive the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the Obligations. 

2.11 Evidence of Debt. 

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of
Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 

(b) Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder,
(ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from Borrower to each Lender hereunder, and (iii) the amount of any sum received by Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders hereunder from
Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. 

  
  

36 

 (c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to
Subsections (a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of Administrative Agent or any
Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrower to repay such obligations in accordance with their terms, and in the event of any conflict between such accounts and the Register
maintained by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.06(e), the entries in the Register shall be controlling. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Loans will be treated as in “registered form” within
the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code). 

(d) No promissory note shall be required to evidence the Loans by Lenders to Borrower. Upon the request of a Lender, Borrower
shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note, which shall evidence the Loans to Borrower by such Lender in addition to such records. Any promissory note issued to a Lender shall bear the following legend: 

THIS NOTE IS BEING ISSUED WITH ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT FOR UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES. FOR INFORMATION REGARDING THE ISSUE

FAX: 310-208-7165. 
 2.12 Payments and Computations. 

(a) All payments to be made by Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment
or setoff. Borrower shall make each payment hereunder not later than 12:00 noon on the day when due in Dollars to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at its office in New York, New York. Administrative Agent will promptly distribute
to each Lender its Ratable Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by Administrative Agent after 12:00 noon shall be
deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day (in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. 

(b) Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever any payment hereunder would be due on a day other than a Business Day, such
payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or any fees, as the case may be. 

  
  

37 

 (c) All payments (including, without limitation, prepayments and any other
amounts received hereunder in connection with the exercise of Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ rights after an Event of Default) made by Borrower to Administrative Agent under any Loan Document shall be applied to amounts then due and
payable in the following order: (i) to any fees, expenses and indemnities payable by Borrower to Administrative Agent under any Loan Document; (ii) ratably to any expenses and indemnities payable by Borrower to any Lender under any Loan
Document; (iii) to any accrued and unpaid interest and fees due to any Lender under this Agreement; (iv) to principal payments on the outstanding Loans; and (v) to the extent of any excess, to the payment of all other Obligations
under the Loan Documents. 
 2.13 Administrative Agent’s Clawback. 

(a) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Loan that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Loan, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Ratable Share of such Loan
available on such date and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its Ratable Share of such Loan available to Administrative Agent, then the
applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding
the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by Borrower, the Applicable Rate. If Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, Administrative Agent shall promptly
remit to Borrower the amount of such interest paid by Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its Ratable Share of the applicable Loan to Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such
borrowing. Any payment by Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to Administrative Agent. 

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

  
  

38 

 (c) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders
hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 2.08(c)(ii) or 8.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under
Section 2.08(c)(ii) or 8.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other
Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 2.08(c)(ii) or 8.04(c). 

2.14 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment
in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it, resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof
as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other
adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them,
provided that: (i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price
restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of Borrower 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 Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to Borrower or any Affiliate
thereof (including Issuer) (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

2.15 Restricted Transactions; No-Rehypothecation; Existing Transfer Restrictions. 

(a) Except for any Permitted Transaction (or component thereof) and the transactions contemplated by the Preferred Equity
Documents, without the consent of Required Lenders (not to be unreasonably withheld), Borrower shall not, and shall not permit Parent Guarantor or any Aggregated Person to, (i) sell, hedge (including any derivative transactions and short
sales), transfer or otherwise dispose of any Underlying Equity; (ii) incur additional Debt collateralized by any Underlying Equity, including without limitation synthetic “long” positions on the Underlying Equity; (iii) issue
debt or preferred stock or other instruments exchangeable into or otherwise referencing the Underlying Equity; or (iv) enter into any agreement that contractually imposes any lock-up, encumbrance, or other restriction in respect of any
Collateral Shares, other than under the Facility and other than any agreement to which any Lender Party is a party. 

  
  

39 

 (b) Each of the following transactions shall be a “Permitted
Transaction”:  
 (i) any sale of Underlying Equity (not constituting either Collateral or Collateral (as
defined in the Put Pledge Agreement)) by Parent Guarantor or any Subsidiary thereof to an unaffiliated third party consummated pursuant to Rule 144 or a public offering for cash proceeds so long as any lockup agreement signed as a condition to such
Rule 144 sale or public offering would not adversely affect any Lender Party’s ability to foreclose on or Dispose of the Collateral Shares; 

(ii) any sale of Underlying Equity constituting Collateral or Collateral (as defined in the Put Pledge Agreement) pursuant
to any exercise of rights and remedies under the Pledge Agreement or Put Pledge Agreement; and 
 (iii) any of the
releases made in accordance with Section 2.16 below. 
 (c) Each Lender Party agrees not to pledge,
repledge, hypothecate, rehypothecate, sell, assign, invest, lend, use, commingle or otherwise transfer for hedging, financing or other related activities (including without limitation, pursuant to repurchase transactions) any Collateral Shares;
provided that the foregoing shall not restrict (i) any Lender Party’s rights to assign, sell participations in or pledge the Obligations and the Collateral as permitted in Section 8.06 hereof or (ii) any
Lender Party’s rights and remedies after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. 
 (d) The
parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Collateral Shares are, in the hands of Borrower, subject to the Existing Transfer Restrictions and, in the hands of the Lender Parties exercising their rights with respect thereto in reliance on Rule 144
under the Securities Act, subject to the requirements of Rule 144(b) and Rule 144(d)(3)(iv), in addition to any other requirements under Rule 144. 

2.16 Release of Collateral Shares . Borrower may not withdraw any Collateral (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) from any Collateral
Account, except as provided in the following:  
 (a) All dividends, distributions and
proceeds in respect of the Collateral Shares, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be deposited into the Collateral Account and constitute Collateral. Borrower may, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice (or four
(4) Business Days if such notice is not received by 12:00 noon on the applicable Business Day) to Administrative Agent, request the release of Ordinary Cash Distributions deposited into the Collateral Account (which notice may be delivered
prior to the deposit of such Ordinary Cash Distributions), and Administrative Agent shall instruct Custodian to release such Ordinary Cash Distributions on the date specified by Borrower in such request so long as of the date of such release no
Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result from such release. 

  
  

40 

 (b) Borrower may, upon three (3) Business
Days’ notice (or four (4) Business Days if such notice is not received by 12:00 noon on the applicable Business Day) to Administrative Agent, request the release of Collateral Shares from the Collateral Account
in connection with a mandatory prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(c) – (e), and Administrative Agent shall, following receipt of such notice, instruct Custodian to release such Collateral Shares on the date
specified by Borrower in such request if (i) as of the date of such proposed release the Borrower has certified to the Administrative Agent that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such release,
(ii) Administrative Agent receives such prepayment simultaneously or prior to the release of the relevant number of Collateral Shares, and (iii) the notice specifies the number of Collateral Shares requested to be released accompanied by
the calculation of such amount as specified below. The number of Collateral Shares to be released will be determined by the Borrower using the following formulas (which calculations will be specified in such notice and certified to the
Administrative Agent): (i) if the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date specified by Borrower in such notice is greater than the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement
Effective Date, then the number of Collateral Shares to be released shall be (A) the principal amount of the Loans mandatorily prepaid at such time pursuant to Section 2.05(c) – (e) divided by (B) the
Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date or (ii) if the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date specified by Borrower in such notice is equal to or less than the
Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date, then the number of Collateral Shares to be released shall be the result (which shall be deemed to be zero if it is a negative number) of (A) the total
number of Collateral Shares pledged as Collateral pursuant to the Pledge Agreement at such time less (B) the quotient of (1) the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans (assuming, for such purposes, that all Tranche B Aggregate
Commitments and Tranche C Aggregate Commitments unutilized at such time shall have been borrowed in full), divided by (2) the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date specified by Borrower in such
notice. 
 (c) Borrower may, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice (or four
(4) Business Days if such notice is not received by 12:00 noon on the applicable Business Day) to Administrative Agent, request the release of Collateral Shares from the Collateral Account in connection with a deposit of Cash into the
Collateral Account, and Administrative Agent shall, following receipt of such notice, instruct Custodian to release such Collateral Shares on the date specified by Borrower in such request if (i) as of the date of such proposed release the
Borrower has certified to the Administrative Agent that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such release, (ii) Administrative Agent has received satisfactory evidence of such deposit of Cash into
the Collateral Account, and (iii) the notice specifies the number of Collateral Shares requested to be released accompanied by the calculation of such amount as specified below. The number of Collateral Shares to be released will be determined
by the Borrower using the following formulas (which calculations will be specified in such notice and certified to the Administrative Agent): (i) if the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date specified by
Borrower in such notice is greater than the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date, then the number of Collateral Shares to be released shall be (A) the principal amount of the Cash deposit made
at such time into the 

  
  

41 

 
Collateral Account divided by (B) the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date or (ii) if the Collateral Shares Price determined
by the Borrower as of the release date specified by Borrower in such notice is equal to or less than the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date, then the number of Collateral Shares to be released
shall be the result (which shall be deemed to be zero if it is a negative number) of (A) the total number of Collateral Shares pledged as Collateral pursuant to the Pledge Agreement at such time less (B) the quotient of (1) the
aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans (assuming, for such purposes, that all Tranche B Aggregate Commitments and Tranche C Aggregate Commitments unutilized at such time shall have been borrowed in full) less the principal amount of the
Cash deposit made at such time, divided by (2) the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date specified by Borrower in such notice. 

  
  

42 

 (d) Borrower may, upon three (3) Business
Days’ notice (or four (4) Business Days if such notice is not received by 12:00 noon on the applicable Business Day) to Administrative Agent, request the release of Collateral Shares from the Collateral Account (x) at any time during
the Availability Period if Borrower has reduced the amount of the Tranche B Aggregate Commitments or the Tranche C Aggregate Commitments pursuant to the procedure described in Section 2.05(a) or (y) once prior to the date that is
thirty (30) days (or such later period as the Lenders may agree) after the end of the Availability Period if during the Availability Period Borrower did not draw all of the Tranche B Aggregate Commitments and the Tranche C Aggregate Commitments
(the amount of the reduction referred to in clause (x) above or the amount of Loans undrawn referred to in clause (y) above, the “Unutilized Loan”). Administrative Agent shall, following receipt of such notice,
instruct Custodian to release Collateral Shares on the date specified by Borrower in such notice if (i) as of the date of such proposed release the Borrower has certified to the Administrative Agent that no Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing or would result from such release and (ii) the notice specifies the number of Collateral Shares requested to be released accompanied by the calculation of such amount as specified below. The number of Collateral
Shares to be released will be determined by the Borrower using the following formulas (which calculations will be specified in such notice and certified to the Administrative Agent): (i) if the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower
as of the release date specified by Borrower in such notice is greater than the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date, then the number of Collateral Shares to be released shall be (A) the
principal amount of the Unutilized Loan divided by (B) the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date or (ii) if the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date
specified by Borrower in such notice is equal to or less than the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date, then the number of Collateral Shares to be released shall be the result (which shall be deemed
to be zero if it is a negative number) of (A) the total number of Collateral Shares pledged as Collateral pursuant to the Pledge Agreement at such time less (B) the quotient of (1) the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding
Loans, divided by (2) the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date specified by Borrower in such notice. 

(e) Borrower may, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice (or four (4) Business Days if
such notice is not received by 12:00 noon on the applicable Business Day) to Administrative Agent, request the release of Collateral Shares from the Collateral Account in connection with a prepayment of the Loans pursuant to
Section 2.05(b), and Administrative Agent shall, following receipt of such notice, instruct Custodian to release such Collateral Shares on the date specified by Borrower in such request if (i) as of the date of such proposed
release the Borrower has certified to the Administrative Agent that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such release, (ii) Administrative Agent receives such prepayment simultaneously or prior to
the release of the relevant number of Collateral Shares, and (iii) the notice specifies the number of Collateral Shares requested to be released accompanied by the calculation of such amount as specified below. The number of Collateral Shares
to be released will be determined by the Borrower using the following formulas (which calculations will be specified in such notice and certified to the Administrative Agent): (i) 

  
  

43 

 
if the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date specified by Borrower in such notice is greater than the Collateral Shares Price determined by the
Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date, then the number of Collateral Shares to be released shall be (A) the principal amount of the Loans prepaid at such time pursuant to Section 2.05(b) divided by (B) the
Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date or (ii) if the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date specified by Borrower in such notice is equal to or less than the
Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the Restatement Effective Date, then the number of Collateral Shares to be released shall be the result (which shall be deemed to be zero if it is a negative number) of (A) the total
number of Collateral Shares pledged as Collateral pursuant to the Pledge Agreement at such time less (B) the quotient of (1) the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans (assuming, for such purposes, that all Tranche B Aggregate
Commitments and Tranche C Aggregate Commitments unutilized at such time shall have been borrowed in full), divided by (2) the Collateral Shares Price determined by the Borrower as of the release date specified by Borrower in such
notice. 
 (f) If the Deferred Conditions Satisfaction Date has occurred (which, for the
purposes of this clause (f) excludes the condition in Section 3.01(a)(vii) but only if such condition remains unsatisfied as of the end of the maximum period provided for in Section 3.03 for
the satisfaction of the Deferred Conditions (it being understood that if the minority shareholders of Fulghum Fibres Chile S.A. have delivered a written notice to Borrower indicating their refusal to consent to Fulghum Fibres, Inc.’s pledge of
its shares, the requirement to wait until the end of the maximum period in the foregoing clause will be waived)) Borrower may, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice (or four (4) Business Days if such notice is not received by 12:00
noon on the applicable Business Day) to Administrative Agent, request the release from the Collateral Account of Collateral Shares constituting the Required Supplemental Collateral Shares Amount, and Administrative Agent shall, following receipt of
such notice, instruct Custodian to release such Collateral Shares on the date specified by Borrower in such request if (i) as of the date of such proposed release the Borrower has certified to the Administrative Agent that no Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such release and that the Deferred Conditions Satisfaction Date has occurred, and (ii) the notice specifies the number of Collateral Shares requested to be released and such number
shall be an amount equal to the Required Supplemental Collateral Shares Amount. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any release of the Required Supplemental Collateral Shares Amount (i) shall be deemed to constitute new value provided
to or for the benefit of the Borrower at the time of such release and (ii) is intended by the parties hereto to be a contemporaneous exchange of new value on account of the occurrence of the Deferred Conditions Satisfaction Date. 

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Collateral Shares
constituting the Required Supplemental Collateral Shares Amount shall be released pursuant to subsections (a) through (e) of this Section 2.16.

Exceptions, no event or condition shall have occurred or resulted in, or could be reasonably expected to cause, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 

(g) The Required Lenders shall have expressly approved (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) the making of such
Tranche B Loan or Tranche C Loan; provided that no such approval shall be required for borrowing Tranche B Loans or Tranche C Loans the proceeds of which, after taking into account all other available funding
and projected sources and uses of cash (with such projections to be reasonably agreed by Borrower and the Required Lenders), in each case, as set forth in the Rolling Cash Flow Statement most recently delivered hereunder, are required, and are
projected to be adequate, to provide Parent Guarantor with funds needed to pay required debt service and other expenses through the first anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date. 

3.03 Certain Deferred Conditions. Notwithstanding Section 3.01 above, but subject to the terms of this
Section 3.03, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are willing to conditionally and temporarily waive the satisfaction of the conditions (the “Deferred Conditions”) set forth on Schedule
III for purposes of allowing the Restatement Effective Date to occur. Such waiver is given in consideration of the agreement by the Borrower (for itself and the other Loan Parties) to satisfy each of the Deferred Conditions to the
satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders on or before March 3, 2015. The Borrower agrees that the failure of a Deferred Condition to be satisfied (or waived by the Required Lenders) by March 3, 2015 shall be an
Event of Default; provided that (i) if Borrower has been making commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy any Deferred Conditions which have not been satisfied by March 3, 2015 (the “Outstanding Condition”) and the
Outstanding Condition is, in the opinion of the Required Lenders, likely to be satisfied within a reasonable time, then Borrower shall have an additional reasonable period (which shall not in any case exceed thirty (30) days) to satisfy such
Outstanding Condition and the failure to satisfy the Outstanding Condition prior to the expiration of such agreed-upon period shall not be deemed an Event of Default and (ii) so long as the Borrower has made commercially reasonable efforts to
satisfy Section 3.01(a)(vii), including obtaining consent of any relevant third parties, the Borrower’s inability to meet such Deferred Condition shall not be deemed an Event of Default.

to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In performing its functions and
duties hereunder, Administrative Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower. Upon request of Administrative
Agent, each Lender agrees to promptly provide Administrative Agent with such information related to a Collateral Account or any Collateral subject to the control of such Lender. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Lender
Parties, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

the Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder also acts as a Lender hereunder, it 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 Administrative Agent and
the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Administrative Agent
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 Borrower or other Affiliate (including Issuer) thereof as if such Person

66 

 7.03 Exculpatory Provisions. 

(a) Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent: 
 (i) 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; 

(ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise, provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its
counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law; or 

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and
shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates (including Issuer) that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any
capacity. 
 Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
(i) with the consent or at the request of Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided
in Sections 8.01 and 6.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Administrative Agent shall
not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to Administrative Agent by Borrower or a Lender. 

Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms, conditions, or provisions set forth herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans, or as to the existence or possible
existence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any

 7.04 Reliance by Administrative Agents. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely
upon, shall be fully protected in relying on and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including but not limited to any notice or certificate
provided under Section 2.16 of this Agreement) 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. 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, which by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless Administrative Agent shall have
received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be
liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 7.05
Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent, without consent of or notice to any party hereto, may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more
agents, sub-agents, affiliates or employees appointed by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and any such agents, sub-agent, affiliates or employees may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their
respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such agents, sub-agents, affiliates or employees and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with (and so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, with approval of) Borrower, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no
such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders or an appointed successor does not accept such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring
Administrative Agent may on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, provided that if Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower and Lenders that no Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless
become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that if any Collateral is then held by
Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments,
communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in
this Section, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to transfer all Collateral held by it to the successor Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s
appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent,

  
  

68 

 
and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above
in this Section). After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article VII and Section 8.04 shall continue in effect
for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative
Agent. 
 7.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and
without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, performed its own analysis and made its own decision (credit, legal and
otherwise) to enter into this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or
any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to perform its own analysis and make its own decisions (credit, legal and otherwise) in taking or
not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

7.08 No Other Duties. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have any powers, duties or
responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity as Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder. 

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

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans
and all other obligations that are owing and unpaid to Administrative Agent or any other Lender Parties under the Loan Documents and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lender Parties and

Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive
any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

  
  

69 

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender Party to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lender Parties, to pay to Administrative
Agent any amount due Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender Party any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the obligations owed by Borrower hereunder or the rights of any Lender Party or to authorize
Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender Party in any such proceeding.

Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative
Agent. Administrative Agent or Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may
be limited to particular notices or communications. 
 Unless Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and
other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or
other written acknowledgment), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the
next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing
clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. 

(c) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Loan Parties and Administrative Agent may change its address, telecopier or
telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to Borrower and
Administrative Agent. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic
mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. 

  
  

72 

 (d) Reliance by Lender Parties. The Lender Parties shall be entitled to
rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or
(ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent, each other Lender Party and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and
liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with Administrative Agent may be recorded by Administrative Agent, and
each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
 8.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender Party
to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall the single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by Law. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Lender Party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. 

8.04 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification; Damage Waiver. 

(a) Costs and Expenses. Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Lender Party
and their Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel to Administrative Agent and one counsel to the other Lender Parties (and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel to Administrative Agent and one local
counsel to the other Lender Parties, in any relevant material jurisdiction) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby shall be consummated)), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent, any Lender Party and their respective Affiliates after the Restatement Effective Date (including the reasonable fees, charges and
disbursements of counsel) in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery of any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof, and
(iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for Administrative Agent and any Lender Party), in connection with the enforcement or
protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket
expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans. 

  
  

73 

 (b) Indemnification by Loan Parties. Each Loan Party shall jointly and
severally indemnify Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each other Lender Party 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 related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel to Administrative Agent and its Related Parties and one counsel for the other Indemnitees (and, if
reasonably necessary, one local counsel to Administrative Agent and its Related Parties and one local counsel to the other Indemnitees, in any relevant material jurisdiction)) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any
third party or by Borrower or any Related Party of Borrower arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, the BMO Intercreditor Agreement, any account control agreement required in
connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or the administration of this Agreement, the BMO Intercreditor Agreement, any account control agreement required in connection with this Agreement, and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or the
use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third
party or by Borrower or any Related Party of Borrower, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, 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 determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This
Section 8.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. 

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that any Loan Party for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount
required under Subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees
to pay to Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Ratable Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid
amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against
any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of Lenders under this Subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of
Section 2.12(c). 
 (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising
out 

  
  

74 

 
of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or
the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through
telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) Business
Days after demand therefor. 
 (f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the
resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Facility and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 

8.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrower is made to Administrative Agent or any other Lender
Party, or Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender Party in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise,
then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and
(b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the
date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the resignation or replacement of
Administrative Agent, the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 
 8.06 Assignments and
Participations. 
 (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, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender. Any
Lender may, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign to any Person (other than a natural person or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates (including
Issuer)) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, but not limited to, all or a portion of its Commitments or its Loans); provided, however, that (i) no consent from Administrative Agent or
Borrower shall be required if a Lender assigns all or any portion of its obligations to any other Lender, Administrative Agent or any Affiliate thereof, and (ii) no consent from Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and is continuing; provided further that Borrower 

  
  

75 

 
shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice
thereof. The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent for its acceptance an Assignment and Assumption, whereupon such assignee, to the extent of the assigned interest, shall be a “Lender”
hereunder. The assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire (in which the assignee shall designate one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information will be made
available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws) and all applicable tax forms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative
Agent may withhold its consent to an assignment if Administrative Agent does not approve the proposed assignee. 
 (b) Except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement or if an Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder, the Commitments or Loans of the
assigning Lender being assigned to such assignee pursuant to such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 and shall be in an integral multiple
of $1,000,000, unless Administrative Agent otherwise consents. 
 (c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by
Administrative Agent, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the
rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of
an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.07, 2.08,
2.10, and 8.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with
this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (f) of this Section. 

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assignor and an assignee, an administrative
questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the written consent of Administrative Agent (if required) and Borrower (if required) to such assignment and any applicable tax forms,
Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and promptly record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment by a Lender shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this
subsection (d). 

  
  

76 

 (e) Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower,
shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts
(and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (f) Any Lender may at any time, without
the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates (including Issuer)) (each, 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 or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrower, Administrative Agent, and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 
 Any agreement or instrument pursuant to
which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such
agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 8.01 that affects such
Participant. Subject to Subsection (g) of this Section, Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.07, 2.08 and 2.10 to the same extent as if it
were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.14 as though it were a Lender,
provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.14 as though it were a Lender. 
 Each Lender
that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s
interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including
the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is
necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive
absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of
doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as administrative agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

  
  

77 

 (g) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Sections 2.07 and 2.08 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of
Section 2.08 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 2.08(e) as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 2.08(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender). 
 (h) Any Lender may, in connection with
any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 8.06 and subject to the provisions of Section 8.12, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee
or participant any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates (including Issuer) furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of Borrower. 

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

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New
York, without giving effect to its conflict of laws provisions other than Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law. 

(b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court of the Southern District of the State of New York, and all appropriate appellate courts or, if jurisdiction in such court is lacking, any New York State court of competent jurisdiction
sitting in New York County (and all appropriate appellate courts), in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, in such Federal court. Each of the
parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other
Loan Document shall affect any right that Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against Borrower or the properties of either such party in the
courts of any jurisdiction. 

  
  

78 

 (c) Waiver of Venue. Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in
Subsection (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or
proceeding in any such court. 
 (d) Service of Process. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process
in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.02(a). Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law. 

(e) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT
OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION
8.07(e). 
 8.08 Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from the rest of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby. 
 8.09 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution; Securities Contract. 

(a) Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to
fees payable to 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 3.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Administrative Agent and when Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together,
bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

  
  

79 

 (b) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,”
“signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect,
validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

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

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

8.12 Confidentiality. The terms and provisions of Sections 1, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9 of the Confidentiality Agreement, dated
December 17, 2013, by and between Parent Guarantor and GSO Capital Partners LP (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) shall apply herein, mutatis mutandis, as if set out in this Agreement in full and as if each
reference therein to “GSO”, “we” or “us” were a reference to Lenders party to this Agreement on the Original Closing Date (each an “Original Lender”) and any Affiliate of an Original Lender that becomes
a Lender after the Original Closing Date, and such Lenders shall have the same obligations with respect to Information (as defined therein) herein as therein, except that the term provided for under Section 7 of the Confidentiality Agreement
is, for purposes of this Section 8.12, hereby extended until the first anniversary of the Original Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Sections 2, 6, 8 and 10 of the Confidentiality Agreement and the
requirement to either return or destroy confidential information pursuant to Section 3 of the Confidentiality Agreement shall not apply herein nor be extended pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. 

  
  

80 

 Administrative Agent and each Lender Party that becomes party to this Agreement after the
Original Closing Date (other than any Affiliate of an Original Lender), agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it
being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory
authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of, or any prospective
assignee of, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to Borrower and
its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder; (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Loans, (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in
connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Facility or (iii) any administration, management or settlement service providers; (h) with the consent of Borrower; or (i) to the extent such Information
(x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (y) becomes available to Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrower. 

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party or any of their
respective Subsidiaries relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to any Lender Party on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by
any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of information received from any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time
of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree
of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 8.13 No
Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), Borrower acknowledges and
agrees that: (a)(i) the services regarding this Agreement provided by Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrower and its Affiliates (including Issuer), on the one hand, and
Administrative Agent, the other Lender Parties and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, (ii) Borrower has consulted its own legal, 

  
  

81 

 
accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (iii) Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of
the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b)(i) Administrative Agent and each other Lender Party is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not
been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for Borrower or any of its Affiliates (including Issuer), or any other Person and (ii) Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties have no obligation to Borrower or
any of its Affiliates (including Issuer) with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) Administrative Agent, the other Lender Parties and their
respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrower and its Affiliates (including Issuer), and Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties have no obligations to
disclose any of such interests to Borrower or any of its Affiliates (including Issuer). To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against Administrative Agent, any other Lender Party and
their respective Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. 

8.14 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent and each other Lender Party,
and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever
currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by Administrative Agent or any Lender Party or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against any and all of the obligations of
Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Administrative Agent or Lender Party or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of Administrative Agent or any Lender Party different from the branch, office or Affiliate
holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender Party and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender Party or its
Affiliates may have. Each Lender Party agrees to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and
application. 
 8.15 Headings Descriptive. The headings of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for
convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement. 
 8.16 USA PATRIOT Act
Notice. Each Lender Party that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of
Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and
other information that will allow such Lender Party or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower in accordance with the Act. Borrower agrees to promptly provide any Lender Party or Administrative Agent with all of the information
requested by such Person to the extent such Person deems such information reasonably necessary to identify Borrower in accordance with the Act. 

  
  

82 

 8.17 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire

	 	Re:	Amendment to Waiver Letter 

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

Reference is made to that certain Letter regarding the Waiver and Amendment of Certain Loan and Equity Documents, dated as of August 9,
2015 (the “Waiver Letter”), from Rentech, Inc. (“Rentech”) to Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and the lenders party thereto. Capitalized
terms used in this amendment letter (this “Amendment Letter”) but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the applicable Waiver Document (as defined in the Waiver Letter) or in the Waiver Letter, as applicable. 

The parties hereto have previously agreed to the forms of an amended and restated Credit Agreement, an amended and restated Guaranty, and a
preferred equity exchange and discharge agreement relating to the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock of Rentech (the foregoing, collectively, the “Proposed Amended Documents”) in connection with the Waiver Letter and have further
negotiated and agreed to amended drafts of such Proposed Amendment Documents in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C (collectively, the “Revised Proposed Amended Documents”). The parties propose to amend
and restate each of the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty and set forth the terms and mechanics for the repayment and termination of the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock of Rentech and related agreements contemporaneous with the consummation of
the mergers contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger”), to match the forms of the Revised Proposed Amended Documents attached hereto. 

 By executing this Waiver Letter, each of the parties hereto agrees to (i) revise the
Proposed Amendment Documents to reflect the forms of the Revised Proposed Amended Documents attached hereto as Exhibit A, Exhibit B, and Exhibit C, respectively, (ii) to execute and deliver the Revised Proposed Amended Documents (with such
changes therein as are reasonably acceptable to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, and GSO) in substantially the form attached hereto) and other documents required thereby at the time of the closing of the Merger, (iii) use reasonable
efforts to implement the amendments and modifications contemplated by the Revised Proposed Amended Documents, and (iv) take such other steps as may be necessary to implement such documents and the Merger Agreement, including the adoption of
resolutions approving the Revised Proposed Amended Documents by the Rentech Parties (as defined below), in each case at the expense of Rentech Nitrogen Holdings, Inc. (“RNHI” and, together with Rentech, the “Rentech
Parties”). 
 Following the execution of this Amendment Letter, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
Lenders and the Rentech Parties agree, at the request of either the Rentech Parties or the Lenders, to use commercially reasonable efforts until May 31, 2016 to discuss in good faith further possible amendments to the Revised Proposed Amended
Documents that are consistent with ongoing discussions among the Lenders and the Rentech Parties if such amendments are, in the judgment of the Lenders, reasonably necessary to enable the Merger to close and the Term Loans and the Preferred Shares
to be repaid and redeemed, respectively, to an extent satisfactory to the Lenders. The parties hereto agree that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to agree to further revisions to the Revised Proposed Amended
Documents, any other Loan Documents, or any documents related to the Preferred Shares and the failure of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to agree to any amendments to any of the foregoing shall not be deemed bad faith upon the part of the
Lenders or the Administrative Agent or a breach of the obligations of the Lenders hereunder. 
 Nothing in this Amendment Letter is intended
to (i) extend the effectiveness of the Waiver Letter or (ii) waive any other rights of the Lenders or Obligations of the Rentech Parties under the Waiver Letter, any other Loan Documents, or any documents related to the Preferred Shares.
If the Merger occurs prior to the execution and delivery of the Revised Proposed Amended Documents by all parties thereto (other than the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, GSO and the Purchaser’s Representative) or the performance by any
Rentech Party of its covenants and agreements under this Amendment Letter or the Waiver Letter, the waivers hereunder and the waivers under the Waiver Letter shall be revoked retroactively to the date of the Waiver Letter as if such waivers had
never become effective and an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred under the Credit Agreement. 
 The Rentech Parties jointly
and severally agree to pay within two Business Days of demand (or, if not previously demanded, on the date of the closing of the Merger) all reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of all counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the
Purchasers and GSO incurred in connection with this Amendment Letter, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all previous waivers to the extent invoiced. 

Each Rentech Party represents and warrants to each of the undersigned that (a) the execution, delivery, and performance by it of this
Amendment Letter (i) are within its company powers, (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary company action, (iii) do not violate any Law or writ, judgment, injunction, determination or award, or contravene its Constituent
Documents, and (iv) do not contravene any contractual restriction binding on it or require any 

 
consent under any material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which any of its properties or assets is bound; (b) after giving effect to this Amendment Letter, the
representations and warranties in the Loan Documents, as applicable to each of the undersigned, are true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, as though made on such date (except to the extent that such
representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true, correct and complete in all material respects on and as of such earlier date; provided, that, if a representation
and warranty is qualified as to materiality, with respect to such representation and warranty the materiality qualifier set forth above shall be disregarded); and (c) after giving effect to this Amendment Letter, no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing on the date hereof. 
 Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment Letter, each reference in any Waiver Document
to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “herein,” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to such Waiver Document as modified by this Amendment Letter, and each reference to any Waiver Document in any other
document, instrument or agreement executed and/or delivered in connection with such Waiver Document shall mean and be a reference to the Waiver Documents as modified hereby. Except as specifically waived or amended hereby, (i) each Waiver
Document shall remain in full force and effect and (ii) the execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment Letter shall not operate as a waiver of any covenant, event of default, right, power or remedy of the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders, the Purchasers, or GSO in or under any Waiver Document. This Amendment Letter shall be deemed a “Loan Document”. 
 The
Lenders are hereby directing the Administrative Agent to execute this Amendment Letter and to perform all actions required thereunder. 

This Amendment Letter shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, without giving effect to its
conflict of laws provisions other than Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law. 

 This Amendment Letter may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties
hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment
Letter by facsimile or by e-mail in portable document format (.pdf) shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment Letter.
