	1.	 Commitments and Agency Roles 

You hereby appoint JPMCB to act, and JPMCB hereby agrees to act, as sole and exclusive administrative agent and collateral agent for the Facilities (in such

 In connection with the Transactions contemplated hereby (a) each of JPMCB and Barclays

Commitment Letter) and (c) each of JPMCB and Barclays (collectively, the “Initial Revolving Lenders”; and together with the Initial Term A Lenders and the Initial Term B Lenders, collectively, the “Initial
Lenders”), hereby commits on a several, but not joint, basis to provide the percentage of the entire principal amount of the Revolving Credit Facility set forth opposite its name on Schedule 1 hereto (as such schedule may be amended

 Our fees for services related to the Facilities are set forth in a separate fee letter with respect to the
Facilities (the “Fee Letter”) between you and us entered into on the date hereof. As consideration for the execution and delivery of this Commitment Letter by us, you agree to pay the fees and expenses set forth herein and in
Exhibits A, and B and in the Fee Letter as and when payable in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. 
 You have the right (the
“Designation Right”), on or prior to the date that is fifteen (15) business days after the date of this Commitment Letter, to appoint up to four (4) additional agents, co-agents,
lead arrangers, bookrunners, managers or arrangers or to confer other titles in respect of any Facility (any such agent, co-agent, lead arranger, bookrunner, manager, arranger or other titled institution, an
“Additional Committing Lender”) in a manner and with economics determined by you (it being understood that (a) in no event will the Commitment Parties party hereto on the date hereof receive less than 60% of the compensatory
economics with respect to the each Facility, (b) each Additional Committing Party (or its affiliate) shall assume a proportion of the commitments on a pro rata basis among the Facilities and with respect to each Facility that is equal to the
proportion of the economics allocated to such Additional Committing Party (or its affiliates), and Schedule 1 shall be automatically amended accordingly as it pertains to each Facility and (c) to the extent you or we appoint (or confer
titles on) any Additional Committing Party in respect of any Facility, the economics allocated to, and the commitment amounts of, each relevant Commitment Party in respect of such Facility will be proportionately reduced (or otherwise reduced in a
manner agreed by you and us) by the amount of the economics allocated to, and the commitment amount of, such Additional Committing Party (or its affiliate), in each case upon the execution and delivery by such Additional Committing Party of
customary joinder documentation reasonably acceptable to you and us, and thereafter, such Additional Committing Party shall constitute a “Commitment Party,” “Initial Lender,” and/or “Arranger”, as applicable, under this
Commitment Letter and under the Fee Letter).

Lender for its participation in the Facilities unless you and we shall so agree. 
  

	2.	 Conditions Precedent 

Our commitments hereunder to make effective and fund the Facilities on the Closing Date and our agreements to perform the services described herein are subject
solely to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Exhibit B. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter (including each of the
exhibits attached hereto), the Fee Letter, the Facilities Documentation or any other letter agreement or other undertaking between you and us concerning the transactions contemplated hereby, (a) the only representations and warranties the
accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability and effectiveness of the Facilities on the Closing Date shall be the Specified Representations (as defined below) and (b) the terms of the Facilities Documentation shall be in a form
such that they do not impair availability or effectiveness of the Facilities on the Closing Date if all conditions set forth in Exhibit B are satisfied or waived by the Arrangers (it being understood that to the extent any Collateral or any
security interests therein (including the creation or perfection of any security interest) is not or cannot be provided or perfected on the Closing Date (other than (i) to the extent that a lien on such Collateral may be perfected by the filing
of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code or (ii) the delivery certificates if any, evidencing the equity interests of any material wholly-owned restricted domestic subsidiary of the Parent Borrower that constitutes Collateral
(provided that any such certificated equity interests with respect to subsidiaries of the Target will be required to be delivered on the Closing Date only to the extent received after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such
certificates)) after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, without undue burden or expense, the delivery of such Collateral or security interest therein (and creation or perfection of security interests therein), as applicable, shall
not constitute a condition precedent to the availability or effectiveness of the Facilities on the Closing Date but shall instead be required to be delivered or provided within 120 days after the Closing Date (or such longer period as the Agent may
reasonably agree), in each case, pursuant to arrangements to be mutually agreed by the Parent Borrower and the Agent. For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties
as of the Closing Date set forth in the Facilities Documentation relating to: organizational existence of such Loan Parties; organizational power and authority of such Loan Parties to execute, deliver and perform their obligations under the
Facilities Documentation, and due authorization, execution and delivery by such Loan Parties, in each case, as they relate to their entry into and performance of the Facilities Documentation; enforceability of the Facilities Documentation against
such Loan Parties; no conflicts with or consent under charter documents of such Loan Parties as it relates to their entry into and performance of the Facilities Documentation; solvency of the Parent Borrower and its subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis on the Closing Date after giving effect to the Transactions (with solvency being determined in a manner consistent with Annex I to this Commitment Letter); subject to the immediately preceding sentence and the limitations set forth in the Term

referred to as the “Certain Funds Provision”. 
  

	3.	 Syndication 

Each Arranger intends and reserves the right to syndicate the Facilities to the Lenders in consultation with you; provided that the Arrangers will not
syndicate to (i) those persons identified by you by name in writing to us prior to the date hereof or (ii) competitors of the Parent Borrower, the Target or any of their 

  
 3 

 
respective subsidiaries that are identified by you by name in writing prior to the date hereof (such persons, together with any person that is clearly identifiable as an affiliate of such person
on the basis of its name, collectively, the “Disqualified Institutions”); provided, further, that the Parent Borrower, upon at least three (3) business days’ written notice to the Commitment Parties after the date
hereof (or, after the Closing Date, the Agents), shall be permitted to supplement in writing the list of persons that are Disqualified Institutions to the extent such supplemented person is or becomes a bona fide competitor of the Parent Borrower,
the Target or any of their respective subsidiaries; provided however, that such supplementation shall not apply retroactively to disqualify any parties that have previously acquired an assignment or participation interest in the Facilities;
and provided, further, that (A) a competitor or an affiliate of a competitor shall not include any bona fide debt fund or investment vehicle (other than a person which is excluded pursuant to clause (i) above) and
(B) Disqualified Institutions shall not include any of the financial institutions to which any portion of the Term Loan Facility (as defined in the Commitment Letter, dated as of July 1, 2021, among, inter alios, you and the Commitment
Parties as in effect immediately prior to the termination thereof) was allocated. Unless otherwise agreed by you, other than in connection with any assignment to an Additional Committing Party upon designation of such Additional Committing Party as
an Initial Lender and the execution and delivery by such Additional Committing Party of customary joinder documentation, (x) the Commitment Parties shall not be relieved, released or novated from their obligations hereunder (including its
obligation to fund the Facilities on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Facilities until after the funding under the Facilities on the Closing Date has occurred, (y) no assignment or
novation shall become effective (as between you and any Commitment Party) with respect to all or any portion of any Commitment Party’s commitments in respect of the Facilities until the funding of the Facilities has occurred and (z) unless
you otherwise agree in writing, the Commitment Parties shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the Facilities, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications,
supplements, waivers and amendments, until the funding under the Facilities on the Closing Date has occurred. The Arrangers will lead the syndication, including determining, in consultation with you, the timing of all offers to prospective Lenders,
any title of agent or similar designations or roles awarded to any Lender and the acceptance of commitments, the amounts offered and the compensation provided to each Lender from the amounts to be paid to the Arrangers pursuant to the terms of this
Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter and will in consultation with you determine the final commitment allocations. You agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Arrangers’ syndication efforts benefit from the existing
lending and investment banking relationships of the Parent Borrower and its subsidiaries. To facilitate an orderly and successful syndication of the Facilities, you agree that, until the earliest of (a) the termination by the Arrangers of
syndication of the Facilities, (b) the earlier of (A) 45 days following the Closing Date and (B) the termination of commitments with respect to the Facilities without the occurrence of the Closing Date and (c) the
“Successful Syndication” of the Facilities (as defined in the Fee Letter), you will ensure (or with respect to the Target or its subsidiaries, using your commercially reasonable efforts to ensure) there will be no competing issues,
offerings, placements or arrangements of any debt facility or any debt security of the Target or the Parent Borrower or any of their respective subsidiaries, including any renewal or refinancing of any existing debt facility or debt security, being
issued, offered, placed or arranged without the consent of the Arrangers, if such issuance, offering, placement or arrangement would materially impair the primary syndication of the Facilities (it being understood that (i) the Facilities,
(ii) any senior debt securities issued in connection with the exercise of the “Market Flex” provisions in the Fee Letter and (iii) (x) as to the Target and its subsidiaries, indebtedness permitted under the Acquisition Agreement
to be incurred or remain outstanding prior to the Closing Date, and indebtedness permitted to remain outstanding on and after the Closing Date under the Acquisition Agreement, working capital indebtedness, intercompany indebtedness, purchase money
and equipment financings and other indebtedness that has otherwise been consented to by the Arranger and (y) as to the Parent Borrower and its subsidiaries, borrowings under its existing revolving credit facilities, deferred purchase price
obligations, ordinary course working capital facilities for foreign subsidiaries, ordinary 

  
 4 

 
course capital lease and purchase money and equipment financings will not be deemed to materially impair the primary syndication of the Facilities). 

You agree to cooperate with, and provide customary information reasonably required by, the Arrangers in connection with all syndication efforts, including:
(i) your assistance in preparing as soon as practicable after the date of this Commitment Letter, a customary information memorandum and other customary presentation materials (collectively, “Confidential Information
Memoranda”) regarding the business, operations and financial projections of the Parent Borrower including without limitation the delivery of all customary information relating to the Transactions prepared by or on behalf of the Parent
Borrower; (ii) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain (or confirm, as applicable) from Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a Standard &
Poor’s Financial Services LLC business (“S&P”), prior to the launch of the general syndication, an updated corporate family rating and an updated corporate credit rating for the Parent Borrower and a credit rating for each of the
Facilities; (iii) arranging for direct communications with prospective Lenders in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (including without limitation direct contact between appropriate senior management, representatives and advisors
of the Parent Borrower and participation of such persons in such meetings); and (iv) hosting (including any preparations with respect thereto) with the Arrangers at places and times (which may be virtual to the extent circumstance so requires)
reasonably requested by the Arrangers, one or more meetings with prospective Lenders. You will be solely responsible for the contents of the Confidential Information Memoranda and all other information, documentation or other materials delivered to
us in connection therewith and you acknowledge that we will be using and relying upon such information without independent verification thereof as provided in Section 4 below. Subject to your consent, not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, and compliance with applicable laws, you agree that, after the Closing Date, each Arranger has the right to place advertisements in financial and other newspapers at its own expense describing its services to you and the Parent
Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter or any other letter agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, your obligations to assist in
syndication efforts as provided herein (including compliance with any of the provisions set forth in this paragraph), shall not constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date. 

You understand that (i) the Arrangers will make available an information package and presentation to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by posting the
information package and presentation on DebtDomain, SyndTrak, IntraLinks or another similar electronic system and (ii) certain prospective Lenders (such Lenders, “Public Lenders”) may have personnel that do not wish to receive
MNPI (as defined below). At an Arranger’s request, you agree to assist in the preparation of an additional version of the Confidential Information Memoranda that does not contain material non-public
information (as reasonably determined by you) concerning you, your or subsidiaries or affiliates or your or its respective securities (collectively, “MNPI”) which is suitable to make available to Public Lenders. You acknowledge and
agree that the following documents may be distributed to Public Lenders (unless you or your counsel promptly notify us (including by email) otherwise and provided that you and your counsel have been given a reasonable opportunity to review such
documents and comply with applicable securities law disclosure obligations): (a) drafts and final versions of the Facilities Documentation; (b) administrative materials prepared by any Arranger for prospective Lenders (including without
limitation a lender meeting invitation, allocations and funding and closing memoranda and the list of Disqualified Institutions); and (c) summaries of terms and notification of changes in the terms and conditions of the Facilities. Before
distribution of any Confidential Information Memoranda in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (i) to prospective Lenders that are not Public Lenders, you will provide us with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of
such materials and (ii) to prospective Public Lenders, you will provide us with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of information that does not contain MNPI (the “Public Information Materials”) to Public Lenders
and confirming the absence of MNPI therein. The 

  
 5 

 
Confidential Information Memoranda provided to Lenders and prospective Lenders will be accompanied by a disclaimer by such recipients exculpating us with respect to any use thereof and of any
related materials by the recipients thereof. In addition, at an Arranger’s request, you will identify Public Information Materials by marking the same as “PUBLIC” and by doing so you shall be deemed to have authorized the Commitment
Parties and the proposed Lenders to treat such Public Information Materials as not containing any MNPI. 
 It is agreed that the completion of the
successful syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Facilities will not be a condition to the Commitment Parties’ commitments hereunder. 
  

	4.	 Information 

You represent and warrant that (i) all written information (other than projections, forward looking information and information of a general economic or
industry specific nature) that has been or will be made available to any Arranger, any Commitment Party, the Lenders or any of their respective affiliates by or on behalf of the Parent Borrower in connection with the Transactions is and will be,
when furnished and taken as a whole, true and correct in all material respects and does not and will not, when furnished and taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (after giving effect to all supplements thereto) and (ii) the projections and other forward looking information that have
been or will be made available to any Arranger, any Commitment Party, the Lenders or any of their respective affiliates by or on behalf of the Parent Borrower have been and will be prepared in good faith, and that information with respect to you
will be based upon accounting principles consistent with your historical audited financial statements most recently provided as of the date hereof and upon assumptions that are believed by the preparer thereof to be reasonable when made and when
made available to such Arranger, such Commitment Party, the Lenders and their respective affiliates; it being understood that such projections and forward-looking statements are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, such projections
and forward-looking statements are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such information may differ significantly from the projected results, and that no assurance
can be given that the projected results will be realized. You agree that if at any time prior to the later of (x) the Closing Date and (y) the earlier of (i) 45 days following the Closing Date and (ii) the “Successful
Syndication” (as defined in the Fee Letter) of the Facilities you become aware that any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if made at such time, then you will promptly supplement, or
cause to be supplemented, the information and projections so that such representations will be correct in all material respects in light of the circumstances in which statements are made. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter, none of the making of the foregoing representations, any supplements thereto, or the accuracy of any such representations and warranties, whether or not cured, shall constitute a condition precedent to the
availability of the commitments and obligations of the Initial Lenders hereunder or the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date. You understand that in providing our services pursuant to this Commitment Letter we may use and rely on the
information and projections without independent verification thereof. 
  

	5.	 Expense and Indemnification; Exculpation; Etc. 

To induce us to enter into this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter and to proceed with the documentation of the Facilities, you hereby agree to indemnify and
hold harmless each Agent, each Arranger and each other agent or co-agent (if any) designated by any Arranger with respect to the Facilities, each Lender (including in any event each Commitment Party and any
other Initial Lender) and their respective affiliates and each partner, trustee, shareholder, director, officer, employee, advisor, 

  
 6 

 
representative, agent, attorney and controlling person thereof (each of the above, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including
any investigations or inquiries), claims, losses, damages, liabilities or reasonable and documented expenses (including reasonable and documented legal expenses), joint or several, of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be brought or threatened
by the Target, the Parent Borrower, the Guarantors (as defined in Exhibit A), any of their respective affiliates or any other person or entity or which may be incurred by or asserted against or involve any Indemnified Person (whether or not
any Indemnified Person is a party to such action, suit, proceeding or claim) as a result of or arising out of or in any way related to or resulting from the Acquisition, this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Facilities, the Transactions or any
related transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any use or intended use of the proceeds of the Facilities; provided that you will not have to indemnify an Indemnified Person against (A) any claim, loss, damage, liability or reasonable and
documented expense to the extent found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such
Indemnified Person or any of such Indemnified Person’s controlled affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or other representatives, (ii) a material breach of obligations under this
Commitment Letter or the Facilities Documentation by such Indemnified Person or any of such Indemnified Person’s controlled affiliates or (iii) any dispute solely among the Indemnified Persons (not arising as a result of any act or
omission by the Parent Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates) other than any claim, action, suit, inquiry, litigation, investigation or other proceeding brought by or against any such Indemnified Person in its capacity as agent or
arranger, or (B) any settlement entered into by such Indemnified Person without your written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but if settled with your written consent or if there is a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in any such action, suit, proceeding or claim, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses,
claims, losses, damages, liabilities or reasonable and documented expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 5. You shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified
Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed), effect any settlement or consent to the entry of any judgment of any pending or threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim in respect of which indemnity could have
been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that
are the subject matter of such action, suit, proceeding or claim, (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability, wrongdoing or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person and (iii) contains
customary confidentiality and non-disparagement provisions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, no Related Person will be responsible or liable to you or any other person or entity
for damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through internet, electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, unless such use is found by a final,
non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or a material breach of the obligations under this Commitment Letter
or the Fee Letter by, such Related Person or any of such Related Person’s controlled affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons or other representatives. “Related
Person” means the Agent, each Arranger and each other agent or co-agent (if any) designated by any Arranger with respect to the Facilities, each Lender (including in any event each Commitment Party
and any other Initial Lender) and their respective affiliates and each partner, trustee, shareholder, director, officer, employee, advisor, representative, agent, attorney and controlling person thereof. 

You also agree to periodically reimburse us for our reasonable and documented or invoiced

diligence efforts and field examinations and the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel, one local counsel in each 

  
 7 

 
relevant jurisdiction and counsel otherwise retained with the Parent Borrower’s consent, whether or not the Acquisition is consummated, the Closing Date occurs or any Facilities
Documentation is executed and delivered or any extensions of credit are made under any of the Facilities. 
 Your indemnity and reimbursement obligations
under this Section 5 will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of you and the Indemnified Persons and shall be superseded in each case by the applicable provisions to the extent

differential between interest rate floors shall be equated to an increase in the applicable interest rate margin with respect to such Incremental Term Facility for purposes of determining whether an increase to the interest rate margin under such
existing Term Loan Facility shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor in such existing Term Loan Facility would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case the interest
rate floor (but not the interest rate margin) applicable to such existing Term Loan Facility shall be increased to the extent of such differential between interest rate floors; provided, further, that, with respect to any Incremental
Term Facility, to the extent such terms are not consistent with the applicable Term Loan Facility (except to the extent permitted by clauses (iv) and (vii) of this paragraph), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent

ending December 31, 2022; provided that solely for the first fiscal year in which Excess Cash Flow is tested, Excess Cash Flow shall equal the annual Excess Cash Flow for such year multiplied by the number of days from the Closing Date
to December 31 of such fiscal year divided by 360); provided that the amount of any such Excess Cash Flow prepayment shall be subject to dollar-for-dollar
reductions as set forth in the Specified Credit Agreement, including, without limitation, that any voluntary prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans to the extent commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility are permanently reduced
by the amount of such prepayments, other than payments or reductions funded with the proceeds of equity or long-term indebtedness, during such fiscal year, or after such fiscal year-end and prior to the time
such Excess Cash Flow prepayment is due, shall be credited against Excess Cash Flow prepayment obligations on a dollar-for-dollar basis for such fiscal year and, to the
extent such prepayments exceed Excess Cash Flow in such fiscal year, shall be carried forward to future fiscal years; provided that Excess Cash Flow prepayments shall only be required if, and only to the extent, that after giving
effect to the applicable percentage of Excess Cash Flow, the amount of the Excess Cash Flow payment that would be required is greater than 15% of the EBITDA Grower Amount (the “ECF Threshold”).

		
		  	Mandatory prepayments shall be applied, without premium or penalty (other than any Soft-Call Premium payable in connection with any refinancing indebtedness in the case of clause (b) above), subject to reimbursement of
the Lenders’ redeployment costs in the case of a prepayment of Term Benchmark or RFR Rate borrowings other than on the last day of the relevant interest period, as directed by the Borrowers. Mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans, together
with accrued interest, if any, shall be applied to the Term Loan B Facility and the Term Loan A Facility on a pro rata basis (and on a pro rata basis within each such Facility) and, with respect to amortization, in the case of the Term Loan B
Facility, as directed by the Parent Borrower (and absent such direction, in direct order of maturity thereof) or, in the case of the Term Loan A Facility, on a pro rata basis to the amortization installments
thereunder.

  
 A-19 

			
		
		  	Prepayments from foreign subsidiaries’ Excess Cash Flow and asset sale proceeds (to the extent otherwise required) shall be limited under the Facilities Documentation to the extent (x) the repatriation of funds to fund
such prepayments is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable laws or (y) repatriation of funds to fund such prepayment would result in material adverse tax consequences, as reasonably determined by the Parent Borrower.
		
		  	All mandatory prepayments under clauses (a) and (c) above are subject to permissibility under (a) local law (e.g., financial assistance, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary
and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant subsidiaries) and (b) organizational document restrictions (including as a result of minority ownership). The non-application of any such mandatory
prepayment amounts as a result of the foregoing provisions will not constitute a default or an event of default and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Borrowers and their restricted subsidiaries. The Borrowers will
use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome or eliminate any such restriction and/or minimize any such costs of prepayment.
		
		  	Any Term Lender may elect not to accept its pro rata portion of any mandatory prepayment under clauses (a) and (c) above (each a “Declining Lender”). Any prepayment amount declined by a Declining Lender
(“Rejected Amounts”) may be retained by the Borrowers and used by the Borrowers in any manner not prohibited by the Facilities Documentation and any such retained amounts will not thereafter be counted as excess cash flow or net cash
proceeds (as described above) in any subsequent measurement period.
		
	4. COLLATERAL	  	
		
	Collateral:	  	Subject to the Certain Funds Provision, the obligations of the Borrowers and each Guarantor in respect of the Obligations shall be secured by a perfected first-priority security interest (subject to permitted liens) in all or
substantially all of the Loan Parties’ tangible and intangible personal property assets, including, without limitation, registered intellectual property, intercompany notes, all of the capital stock of the Borrower’s direct and indirect
restricted subsidiaries (limited to (i) the assets of each Guarantor and (ii) 65% of the voting capital stock and 100% of the non-voting capital stock, of any first-tier foreign subsidiary), existing and
future cash, cash equivalents, bank accounts (with exceptions as set forth in the Specified Credit Agreement), accounts receivable, other receivables, chattel paper, inventory, and contract rights, documents, general intangibles and insurance,
instruments and books and records relating thereto and all proceeds of the foregoing (the “Collateral”). The

  
 A-20 

			
		  	Collateral shall be subject to exceptions and qualifications as set forth in the Specified Credit Agreement.
		
		  	None of the Collateral shall be subject to any other pledges, security interests or mortgages, except junior liens on Collateral and other liens on other Collateral in each case as permitted under the lien covenant. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, except as set forth in the Specified Credit Agreement, no foreign law governed documents, perfection actions or foreign law opinions shall be required in connection with the Facilities Documentation.
		
	5. CONDITIONS	  	
		
	Conditions to Initial Borrowing:	  	The extension of credit under the Facilities on the Closing Date will be subject solely to the conditions precedent set forth in Exhibit B to the Commitment Letter.
		
	Conditions after the Closing Date:	  	The making of each extension of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility after the Closing Date shall be conditioned upon (a) delivery of a customary borrowing notice, (b) the accuracy of representations and warranties
in all material respects, and (c) the absence of defaults or events of default at the time of, or after giving effect to the making of, such extension of credit.
		
	6. DOCUMENTATION	  	
		
	Facilities Documentation:	  	The definitive documentation with respect to the Facilities (the “Facilities Documentation”) shall be substantially consistent with the draft Credit Agreement relating to the “Facilities” (as defined in
the Original Commitment Letter), dated as of February 23, 2022 (the “Specified Credit Agreement”) (and related Loan Documents (as defined in the Specified Credit Agreement), in draft form as in effect on the date hereof, the
“Specified Loan Documents”) and will contain the terms set forth in this Exhibit A and, to the extent any other terms are not expressly set forth herein or in the Specified Credit Agreement will (i) be negotiated in good faith
within a reasonable time period to be determined based on the expected Closing Date and taking into account the timing of the syndication of the Term Loan Facilities and the pre-closing requirements of the
Acquisition Agreement, (ii) contain such other terms as the Parent Borrower and the Arrangers shall reasonably agree, including customary EU/UK bail-in provisions, and (iii) be in a form such that
they do not impair the availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date if the applicable conditions to funding set forth or referred to in Exhibit B are satisfied; provided that the Facilities Documentation shall include such updates to
address changes in law and modifications to reflect the operational and agency requirements of the Administrative Agent (the “Documentation Principles”).

  
 A-21 

			
		
		  	 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Specified Loan Documents shall be modified as follows

 
 a.   With respect to restricted
payments, revise Section 7.05(b)(8)(y) of the Specified Credit Agreement to an amount of permitted restricted payments to not exceed $250.0 million per year, with any unused amounts carried forward to the next succeeding fiscal year;
provided, that such carried forward amount shall not exceed $250.0 million in any year and any usage of the foregoing basket shall first reduce amounts previously carried forward.

		
		  	 b.  With respect to amendments, require the consent of each adversely affected Lender
for subordination of all or substantially all of the liens under the Facilities Documentation, or all or any portion of the Obligations, to any other liens or indebtedness. 

		
		  	 c.   So long as the Term Loan A Facility remains outstanding, provide for pro
forma compliance with the Financial Covenant in connection with utilization of certain baskets where usual and customary for similar pro rata financings with a maintenance covenant.

		
	Financial Covenant:	  	With respect to the Term Loan B Facility: none.
		
		  	With respect of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan A Facility, maintenance of a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio of 5.50:1.00, with an annual step-down of 0.25:1.00 commencing upon the end of the first full fiscal
quarter following the first anniversary of the Closing Date and for each year thereafter (the “Financial Covenant”); provided that, for the four full fiscal quarter period following a Material Acquisition (to be defined as
mutually agreed), such covenant level shall step up by 0.50:1.00; provided further that such covenant level shall not exceed 5:50:1.00 at any time. The Financial Covenant will be tested quarterly at the end of each fiscal quarter, commencing
with the first fiscal quarter of the Parent Borrower ending after the Closing Date.
		
		  	Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Term Loan A Facility or any other term loan A indebtedness is not outstanding under the Facilities Documentation (a “Springer Covenant Period”), then for any
fiscal quarter ending during such Springer Covenant Period, the Financial Covenant will be limited to the Revolving Credit Facility and to maintenance of a maximum First Lien Net Leverage Ratio equal to 6.00:1.00, which ratio will only be tested at
the end of any fiscal quarter where more than 35% of the Revolving Credit Facility is drawn (net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the Borrowers

  
 A-22 

			
		  	and their restricted subsidiaries and excluding Letters of Credit) at such date.
		
	Unrestricted Subsidiaries:	  	The Facilities Documentation will contain provisions pursuant to which, subject to limitations on investments, loans, advances and guarantees and other customary conditions and provisions as set forth in the Specified Credit
Agreement, the Parent Borrower is permitted to designate any existing or subsequently acquired or organized subsidiary as an “unrestricted subsidiary” and subsequently re-designate any such
unrestricted subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary; provided that (i) after giving effect to any such designation or re-designation, no payment or bankruptcy event of default shall exist (including
after the reclassification of investments in, debt of, and liens on the assets of, the applicable subsidiary) and (ii) the fair market value of such subsidiary at the time it is designated as an “unrestricted subsidiary” shall be
treated as an investment in an unrestricted subsidiary by the Parent Borrower at such time. The designation of any unrestricted subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary shall constitute the incurrence at the time of designation of any indebtedness or
liens of such subsidiary existing at such time and an investment in such subsidiary. Unrestricted subsidiaries will not be subject to the representations and warranties, the affirmative or negative covenant or event of default provisions of
Facilities Documentation, and the results of operations and indebtedness of unrestricted subsidiaries will not be taken into account for purposes of determining compliance (to the extent applicable) with the negative covenants and financial ratios
contained in the Facilities Documentation.
		
	Representations and Warranties:	  	Subject to the Documentation Principles, limited to the following and applicable to the Borrowers and their restricted subsidiaries, it being understood and agreed that only the Specified Representations shall be required to be true
and correct in all material respects (except for such representations and warranties that are already qualified by materiality, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects after giving effect to such materiality
qualification) as a condition to the occurrence of the Closing Date: financial statements (including pro forma financial statements) and projections; no material adverse change; corporate existence; compliance with law; corporate power and

 A-23 

			
		  	terrorism laws; insurance; and delivery of certain documents, subject, in the case of each of the foregoing representations and warranties, to customary qualifications and to limitations for materiality consistent with the
Documentation Principles. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the period from the Closing Date until the date that is 30 days after the Closing Date (the “Clean-Up
Period”), any breach of a representation or warranty (other than a Specified Representation) arising solely by reason of any matter or circumstance relating to the Target and its subsidiaries will be deemed not to be a breach of a
representation or warranty if, and for so long as, the circumstances giving rise to the relevant breach of representation or warranty: (a) are capable of being remedied within the Clean-Up Period and the
Parent Borrower and its subsidiaries are taking appropriate steps to remedy such breach, (b) do not have and would not be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect and (c) were not procured by or approved by the Parent Borrower
or any of its subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing Date.
		
	Affirmative Covenants:	  	Subject to the Documentation Principles, limited to the following and applicable to the Borrowers and their restricted subsidiaries: delivery of annual financial statements (accompanied by an audit opinion from a nationally
recognized accounting firm) within ninety days (90) after the end of each fiscal year, delivery of quarterly financial statements within forty-five (45) days after the end of each of the first three fiscal quarters of each fiscal year (or

payment of taxes; maintenance of existence and material rights and privileges; compliance with laws; maintenance of property (subject to casualty, condemnation and normal wear and tear) and customary insurance; maintenance of books and records;
right of the Administrative Agent to inspect property and books and records; notices of defaults, litigation and other material events; compliance with environmental laws; ERISA; commercially reasonable efforts to maintain ratings (but not to

qualifications consistent with the Documentation Principles.
		
	Negative Covenants:	  	Subject to the Documentation Principles, limited to the following with baskets and other exceptions to be agreed (and applicable to the Borrowers and their restricted subsidiaries):
		
		  	 (a)   the incurrence of
debt;

  
 A-24 

			
		
		  	 (b)   liens;

		
		  	 (c)   mergers, consolidations and fundamental changes;

		
		  	 (d)   asset sales;

		
		  	 (e)   restricted payments, including investments and dividends or distributions
on, or redemptions of, the Parent Borrower’s equity;

		
		  	 (f)   prepayments or redemptions of junior debt, or amendments of junior debt
documents or organizational documents in a manner materially adverse to the Lenders;

		
		  	 (g)   negative pledge clauses and other restrictive agreements;

		
		  	 (h)   transactions with affiliates above a threshold consistent with the
Documentation Principles;

		
		  	 (i) anti-corruption laws and sanctions; FCPA and OFAC/anti-terrorism laws; and

		
		  	 (j) change in business or fiscal year.

		
	 Events of Default:
	  	Subject to the Documentation Principles, limited to the following and applicable to the Borrowers and their restricted subsidiaries only, and with materiality, grace periods and other qualifications to be agreed: nonpayment of
principal when due; nonpayment of interest, after a five business day grace period; nonpayment of fees or other amounts, after a ten business day grace period; material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty when made or deemed made (subject, in
the case of any representation or warranty capable of being cured, to a thirty day cure period); violation of covenants (subject, in the case of certain of such affirmative covenants, to a thirty day grace period); cross-default and cross
acceleration to material indebtedness (provided that the Borrowers’ failure to perform or observe the Financial Covenant shall not constitute an event of default for purposes of the Term Loan B Facility unless and until a majority in
interest of either the Revolving Credit Lenders or the Term A Lenders have actually declared all such obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility or the Term Loan A Facility, as applicable, to be immediately due and payable and such declaration
has not been rescinded); bankruptcy events of the Borrowers or any restricted subsidiary that is not an immaterial subsidiary (with a customary grace period for involuntary events); certain ERISA events; material unsatisfied judgments; actual or
asserted invalidity of any material provision in a guarantee, security document or material subordination provisions or non-perfection of a security interest covering a material portion of the collateral; and
a change of control.

  
 A-25 

			
	Voting, Assignments and Participations, Yield Protection:	  	After the Closing Date, the Lenders shall be permitted to assign (except to Disqualified Institutions, if the list of Disqualified Institutions has been provided to all Lenders) the Loans with the consent of the Parent Borrower (not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (the Parent Borrower’s consent shall be deemed given if it fails to respond within ten business days); provided that no consent of the Borrowers shall be required (i) after the occurrence and during
the continuance of a payment or bankruptcy event of default, (ii) for assignments of Term Loans to any existing Lender or an affiliate or related fund of an existing Lender or (iii) for assignments under the Revolving Credit Facility to
any existing Revolving Credit Lender or an affiliate of an existing Revolving Credit Lender. All assignments will require the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such assignment is an assignment of
the Loans to another Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an approved fund and, with respect to assignments under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Issuing Lenders. Each assignment will be in a minimum amount of $1.0 million, in the case of
Term Loans, or $10.0 million, in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, and in integral multiples as set forth in the Facilities Documentation or, in each case, if less, all of such Lender’s remaining loans and commitments of the
applicable class. Natural persons and the Borrowers (except as expressly set forth below), their subsidiaries and affiliates may not be assignees. The Facilities Documentation shall contain customary “net short lender” provisions
consistent with the Documentation Principles.
		
		  	Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for monitoring assignments or participations for compliance with the list of Disqualified Institutions, if any.
		
		  	The Lenders are permitted to sell participations in Loans and commitments without notice or restriction (except to Disqualified Institutions, if the list of Disqualified Institutions has been provided to all Lenders), other than as
set forth in the next sentence, and in accordance with applicable law. Voting rights of participants shall be limited to matters in respect of (a) increases in commitments participated to such participants, (b) reductions of principal,
interest or fees, (c) extensions of final maturity and (d) releases of all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees or all or substantially all of the Collateral.
		
		  	The Borrowers may repurchase Term Loans on a non-pro rata basis through a Dutch auction process (or other procedures as set forth in the Facilities Documentation by the Borrowers and the
Administrative Agent) offered to all Term Lenders on customary terms; provided that (i) any Term Loans so repurchased shall be immediately cancelled upon repurchase, (ii) no event of
default

  
 A-26 

			
		  	shall have occurred and be continuing and (iii) no proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans shall be used to fund such purchase.
		
		  	Amendments and waivers with respect to the Facilities Documentation shall require the approval of Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount Loans and commitments under the Facilities (the “Required
Lenders”), except that (a) in addition to the consent of the Required Lenders, the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby shall be required with respect to (i) reductions in the amount or extensions of the scheduled date
of any amortization or final maturity of any Loan, (ii) reductions in the rate of interest or any fee or extensions of any due date thereof (but, for the avoidance of doubt, other than default rate interest) and (iii) increases in the
amount or extensions of the expiry date of any Lender’s commitment, (b) the consent of 100% of the Lenders shall be required with respect to (i) reductions of any of the voting percentages and modifications of any pro rata
sharing and payment and waterfall provisions, (ii) releases of all or substantially all the Collateral (other than in connection with any sale of Collateral permitted by the Facilities Documentation), and (iii) releases of all or
substantially all of the Guarantors (other than in connection with the release or sale of the relevant Guarantor permitted by the Facilities Documentation) and (c) the consent of Administrative Agent or Issuing Lenders, as applicable, shall be
required with respect to any amendment or modification that affects its rights or duties as administrative agent or Issuing Lenders, as applicable. Any amendment or waiver that by its terms affects only the rights or duties of the Lenders holding
loans or commitments of a particular class (but not the Lenders holding loans or commitments of any other class) will require only the requisite percentage in interest of the affected class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto if
such class of Lenders were the only class of Lenders.
		
		  	The Facilities Documentation shall contain customary provisions for replacing non-consenting Lenders in connection with amendments and waivers requiring the consent of all Lenders or of all
Lenders directly affected thereby so long as the Required Lenders shall have consented thereto.
		
		  	In addition, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error, ambiguity, defect, inconsistency or omission of a technical nature in the Facilities Documentation, then the
Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall be permitted to amend such provision without any further action or consent of any other party.
		
		  	The Facilities Documentation will permit guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents to be, together with the credit agreement, amended and waived with the consent
of

  
 A-27 

			
		  	the Administrative Agent at the request of the Parent Borrower without the need for consent by any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order to (i) comply with local law or advice of local counsel or
(ii) cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with the credit agreement and the other Facilities Documentation.
		
	Expenses and Indemnification:	  	The Borrowers shall pay (a) all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers in
connection with the syndication of the Facilities and the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Facilities Documentation and any amendment or waiver with respect thereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees,
disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and counsel otherwise retained with the Parent Borrowers’ consent) and (b) all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders (including, without limitation, the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) in
connection with the enforcement of the Facilities Documentation.
		
		  	The Loan Parties will indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders and their respective affiliates, and the officers, directors, employees, agents and controlling persons of the foregoing, and hold them harmless
from and against all reasonable and documented costs, reasonable and documented expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) and liabilities of any such indemnified person arising out of or
relating to any claim or any litigation or other proceedings (regardless of whether any such indemnified person is a party thereto or whether such claim, litigation, or other proceeding is brought by a third party or by the Borrowers or any of their
respective affiliates, creditors or shareholders) that relate to the Facilities Documentation, except to the extent (i) that it is found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction that such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the indemnified party or (y) a material breach of obligations under the Facilities Documentation by
such indemnified party, (ii) arising out of any dispute solely among the indemnified parties (not arising as a result of any act or omission by the Borrowers or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) other than any claim, action,
suit, inquiry, litigation, investigation or other proceeding brought by or against any such indemnified party in its capacity as agent or arranger, or (iii) arising out of any settlement entered into by such indemnified party without the Parent
Borrower’s written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Commitment Letter to which this Exhibit B is attached and the other Exhibits to the Commitment Letter. Subject in all respects to the Certain Funds Provision and the Documentation Principles, the commitments of the Initial Lenders’ and
the Arrangers’ and other agents’ agreements to perform the services described herein (including the initial borrowings under the Facilities) are subject solely to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Arrangers) of the following conditions
precedent, as applicable: 
 1. Subject to the Certain Funds Provision, definitive loan documentation for the Facilities consistent with the Term Sheet, the
Commitment Letter (including, without limitation, the Guarantees and Collateral to the extent required by the Facilities Documentation, the Term Sheet and the Commitment Letter) and the Documentation Principles shall have been executed and delivered
by the Borrowers and the Guarantors to the Agent. 
 2. The Acquisition shall have been, or substantially concurrently with the initial borrowings under the
Facilities shall be, consummated in all material respects in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement. No material provision of the Acquisition Agreement shall have been waived, amended or otherwise modified, or any consent given thereunder, in a
manner material and adverse to the Lenders (in their capacity as such) without the consent of the Arrangers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided that (a) any reduction in the purchase price
for the Acquisition set forth in the Acquisition Agreement shall not be deemed to be material and adverse to the interests of the Lenders so long as any such reduction is applied on a
dollar-for-dollar basis to reduce the amount of commitments in respect of the Term Loan Facility, (b) any increase in the purchase price set forth in the
Acquisition Agreement shall be deemed to be not material and adverse to the interests of the Lenders so long as such purchase price increase is not funded with additional indebtedness (it being understood and agreed that no purchase price, working
capital or similar adjustment provisions set forth in the Acquisition Agreement shall constitute a reduction or increase in the purchase price) and (c) each Arranger shall be deemed to have consented to any such waiver, amendment or
modification unless they shall object thereto in writing (including via email) within three business days of receipt of written notice of such waiver, amendment or modification. 

3. The Refinancing shall have been made or consummated prior to, or shall be made or consummated substantially simultaneously with, the initial borrowings
under the Facilities. 
 4. Subject to the Certain Funds Provision, with respect to each of the Facilities, the Agents shall have received (a) all
documents and instruments required to create and perfect the Agents’ respective security interests in the Collateral, executed and delivered by the applicable Loan Parties, (b) a solvency certificate from a financial officer of the Parent
Borrower, substantially in the form of Exhibit K to the Specified Credit Agreement, attesting to the solvency of the Parent Borrower and its subsidiaries on the Closing Date on a consolidated basis after giving effect to the Transactions,

of any default or event of default or a bring down of representations and warranties other than those set forth in 

  
 B-1 

 
paragraph 10 below), and (f) good standing certificates in the respective jurisdictions of organization of the Loan Parties (to the extent such concept exists in the applicable
jurisdiction). 
 5. All accrued costs, fees and expenses (including legal fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of any other advisors) and other
compensation due and payable to the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders shall have been paid, to the extent an invoice therefor was presented at least five business days prior to the Closing Date (or such later date as the Parent Borrower may
agree) (which amounts may be offset against the proceeds of the funding under the Facilities). 
 6. The Loan Parties shall have provided the documentation
and other information to the Lenders required by regulatory authorities under the applicable “know-your-customer” rules and regulations, including the PATRIOT Act and a certification regarding beneficial ownership required pursuant to 31
C.F.R. § 1010.230, in each case at least three business days prior to the Closing Date, as has been requested to the Parent Borrower in writing at least ten business days prior to the Closing Date. 

7. The Specified Representations shall be true and correct in all material respects (except for representations and warranties that are already qualified by
materiality, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects after giving effect to such materiality qualification) on the Closing Date.
