 (b) No Issuer shall be under any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit and no Participating Bank shall have any obligation to participate in any Letter
of Credit if: 
  
 (i) such issuance would be
prohibited under Section 3.2; 
  

 17 

 (ii) the Administrative Agent or LC Administrator has received written notice from the
Fronting Bank or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, or the Borrower, on or prior to the Business Day prior to the requested date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit, that one or more of the applicable conditions contained in Section
8.2 is not then satisfied; 
  
 (iii) the
expiry date of such Letter of Credit is less than five Business Days prior to the Final Maturity Date, unless all of the Lenders have approved such expiry date in writing; 
  
 (iv) in the case of Letters of Credit issued by the Lenders (other than a Participating Bank), such Letter
of Credit is not substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, or is not otherwise in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator and the Fronting Bank; provided that the Administrative Agent and the
LC Administrator can and will, agree to reasonable changes to such form, not adverse to the interests of the Lenders, requested by applicable insurance regulators; or 
  
 (v) such Letter of Credit is denominated in a currency other than Dollars; or 
  
 (vi) after giving effect to issuance of such Letter of

amount of the LC Advances made to the Borrower and the Letters of Credit Issued for the account of the Borrower, and the amounts of principal, interest and fees owing hereunder. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however,
limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to any LC Advance or any Letter of Credit. 
  
 SECTION 2.2 Issuance, Amendment and Renewal of Letters of Credit 
  
 (a) Each Letter of Credit shall be Issued upon the irrevocable written request of the Borrower received by the LC
Administrator at least 5 Business Days (or such shorter time as the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator and the Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of issuance. The LC Administrator
shall promptly advise the Administrative Agent of any such request. Each such request for issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing, in the form of an LC Application, and shall specify in form
and detail satisfactory to the LC Administrator: (i) the proposed date of issuance of the Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (ii) the face amount of the Letter of Credit; (iii) the expiry date of the Letter of Credit; (iv) the name
and address of the Beneficiary thereof; (v) the documents to be presented by the Beneficiary of the Letter of Credit in case of any drawing thereunder; (vi) the full text of any certificate to be 

  

 18 

 
presented by the Beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (vii) whether such Letter of Credit is to be issued by the Fronting Bank or by the Issuers
(it being agreed that in the event an Issuer advises the LC Administrator that such Issuer is unable (due to regulatory restrictions or other legal impediments) to Issue a Letter of Credit because of its relationship to the Beneficiary, such Letter
of Credit will be issued by the Fronting Bank); (viii) whether such Letter of Credit is to be a Tranche A Letter of Credit or a Tranche B Letter of Credit; and (ix) such other matters as the LC Administrator may require. The LC Administrator is
hereby authorized to execute and deliver each Letter of Credit to be Issued by the Issuers on behalf of the Issuers provided, that at the request of the Borrower, such Letter of Credit will be executed by each of the Issuers. In the event of a
conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of an LC Application, this Agreement shall govern. The LC Administrator shall use each Issuer’s Percentage as its “Commitment Share” under each Letter of Credit
Issued by the Issuers provided that the Fronting Bank shall be severally (and not jointly) liable for an amount equal to its Percentage plus the Percentage of each Participating Bank. The LC Administrator shall not amend any Letter of Credit Issued
by the Issuers to change the “Commitment Shares” or add or delete an Issuer liable thereunder unless such amendment is done in connection with an assignment pursuant to Section 10.8 or in connection with the addition of an Issuer or
a Participating Bank pursuant to Section 2.18. 
  
 (b) From
time to time while a Letter of Credit is outstanding and prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Issuer will, upon the written request of the Borrower received by the LC Administrator at least 5 Business Days (or such shorter time as the
Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator and the Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of amendment, amend any Letter of Credit Issued by them. The LC Administrator shall promptly advise the
Administrative Agent of any such request. Each such request for amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be made by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing, made in the form of an LC Amendment Application and shall specify in form and
detail satisfactory to the LC Administrator: (i) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (ii) the proposed date of amendment of such Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (iv) such other
matters as the LC Administrator may require. No Issuer shall have any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if: (A) such Issuer would have not been obligated at such time to Issue or participate in such Letter of Credit in its amended form under
the terms of this Agreement; or (B) the Beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. The Issuers and the Fronting Bank agree, upon the request of the Borrower and as long as no Event of
Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to amend any Letter of Credit to extend the expiry date thereof to a date not later than five Business Days prior to the Final Maturity Date. The LC Administrator is hereby authorized to
execute and deliver each amendment to a Letter of Credit Issued by the Issuers on behalf of the Issuers provided that, upon request of the Borrower, such amendment will be executed by each Issuers. 
  
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the receipt
of a written request from the Borrower for the issuance of or an amendment to a Letter of Credit and, with respect to the issuance of or Risk Participation in a Letter of Credit, the amount of such Lender’s share of such Letter of Credit which
shall equal its Percentage thereof. In addition, at least two Business Days prior to the issuance or amendment of any Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent will confirm to the Lenders (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent
has received a copy of the LC Application or LC Amendment Application from the Borrower. 
  

 19 

 (d) With respect to a request to Issue a Letter of Credit, unless the Administrative Agent has received,
on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such Letter of Credit will be Issued, (i) notice from the Fronting Bank or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, or the Borrower directing the Administrative Agent not to
permit the issuance of such Letter of Credit because such issuance is not then permitted under Section 2.1(a) as a result of the limitations set forth therein or (ii) a notice described in Section 2.1(b)(ii), then, subject to the terms
and conditions hereof, the LC Administrator shall, on the requested date, cause a Letter of Credit to be Issued by the Fronting Bank or by the Issuers in accordance with their Percentages (provided that the Fronting Bank shall be severally (and not
jointly) liable for an amount equal to its Percentage plus the Percentage of each Participating Bank), as the case may be, for the account of the Borrower in accordance with the LC Administrator’s usual and customary business practices.

  
 (e) The LC Administrator may, at its election (or at the
direction of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or the Required Lenders, as the case may be), deliver any notices of termination or other communications to any Beneficiary or transferee, and take any other action as necessary or
appropriate, at any time and from time to time, in order to cause the expiry date of such Letter of Credit to be a date not later than five Business Days prior to the Final Maturity Date. 
  
 (f) This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with any LC Related Document (other than any Letter of
Credit). 
  
 (g) The LC Administrator, concurrently or promptly
following the delivery of a Letter of Credit, or amendment to or renewal of a Letter of Credit, to a Beneficiary, shall send to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a true and complete copy of each such Letter of Credit or amendment to or
renewal of a Letter of Credit. After giving effect to the Issuance of any Letter of Credit, there shall be no more than 25 Letters of Credit outstanding. 
  
 (h) The status of a Lender as a Participating Bank at any time shall be determined solely by the Fronting Bank and such Lender. In the event a Lender
becomes a Participating Bank or ceases to be a Participating Bank, the LC Administrator is authorized to amend each Letter of Credit to reflect such change in status and fees owed by any Participating Bank pursuant to Section 2.14(c)(i) shall
accrue only during such period as such Lender is a Participating Bank with respect to any such Letter of Credit. 
  
 SECTION 2.3 Drawings and Reimbursements. 
  
 (a) With respect to each Letter of Credit for which the LC Administrator receives a request for a drawing which is in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the LC Administrator (a “Drawing Request”), if such Drawing Request is received prior to 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on any Business Day, such Business Day shall be the “Drawing Request Date” and if such Drawing
Request is received after 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on any Business Day, the following Business Day shall be the “Drawing Request Date.” Upon receiving a Drawing 

  

 20 

 
Request, the LC Administrator shall promptly notify the Borrower of such Drawing Request (which notice may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing
(including by facsimile)) and upon receipt of such notification, the Borrower shall promptly reimburse the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Issuer for the amount of such drawing by delivering to the LC Administrator in immediately available
funds the amount of the Drawing Request. Nothing herein stated shall be deemed a waiver by the Lenders of the obligation of the Borrower to make such prompt reimbursement. To the extent that funds are received by the LC Administrator prior to 3:00
p.m. (Chicago time) on the first Business Day after the Drawing Request Date, the LC Administrator shall promptly, on behalf of the Issuer, make an equivalent amount available to the Beneficiary of the related Letter of Credit on such first Business
Day after the Drawing Request Date and shall reimburse itself for such amount with the funds provided by the Borrower. 
  
 (b) With respect to any Drawing Request, if immediately available funds are not received by the LC Administrator from the Borrower prior to 3:00 p.m.
(Chicago time) on the first Business Day after the Drawing Request Date in the amount of such Drawing Request, the LC Administrator shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender on the first
Business Day after the Drawing Request Date of such Drawing Request and such Lender’s share of such Drawing Request (which shall be an amount equal to (i) such Lender’s Percentage multiplied by the lesser of (ii)(A) the maximum amount
available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and (B) the amount of such drawing which was not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3(a)) and the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested an LC Borrowing in an amount equal to
the amount of such drawing which was not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section.3(a). Any notice given by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing
(including by facsimile); provided that (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent to give any such notice in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment at the time required under Section 2.3(c) or (ii) the failure of
the Administrative Agent to deliver an immediate confirmation of such notice shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice or relieve any Lender from its obligations under this Section 2.3. 
  
 (c) Upon receiving a Drawing Request, each Lender shall make available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of LC Administrator at the Administrative Agent’s Payment Office by 3:00 p.m. (Chicago time) in immediately available funds on the second Business Day after the Drawing Request Date (such date, an “LC
Advance Date”) its share of such request; provided that in the case of a Letter of Credit issued by the Fronting Bank, if a Lender shall fail to make such funds so available, the Fronting Bank shall make such funds available and provided
further that if a Participating Bank shall fail to make such funds so available, the Fronting Bank shall make such funds available. Upon delivering such funds to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.3(c), such Lender (or the
Fronting Bank, if the Fronting Bank has made such funds available after the failure of such Lender to do so) shall be deemed to have made an LC Advance to the Borrower in such amount. To the extent that immediately available funds are received by
the Administrative Agent from the Lenders prior to 3:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on any LC Advance Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the LC Administrator and the LC Administrator shall promptly make such funds available to the Beneficiary of
the related Letter of Credit on such date. To the extent that the LC Administrator has not delivered funds to any Beneficiary on behalf of a Lender pursuant to the first sentence of Section 2.3(d) and that immediately available funds are
received by the Administrative Agent 

  

 21 

 
from such Lender: (i) after 3:00 p.m. on any LC Advance Date, the LC Administrator shall make such funds available to such Beneficiary on the next Business
Day following such LC Advance Date; (ii) prior to 3:00 p.m. on any Business Day after the LC Advance Date, the LC Administrator shall make those funds available to such Beneficiary on such Business Day; and (iii) after 3:00 p.m. on any Business Day
after the LC Advance Date, the LC Administrator shall make those funds available to such Beneficiary on the next Business Day following such Business Day. 
  
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent or LC Administrator receives notice from a Lender prior to any LC Advance Date that such Lender will not make
available as and when required hereunder to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower the amount of such Lender’s LC Advance on such LC Advance Date, the Administrative Agent and the LC Administrator may assume that such Lender
has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds on the LC Advance Date and the LC Administrator may (but shall not be required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Beneficiary of the
related Letter of Credit on such date such Lender’s LC Advance. If and to the extent (i) any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds and (ii) the LC Administrator in such
circumstances has made available to the Beneficiary such amount, then such Lender shall, on the Business Day following such LC Advance Date, make such amount available to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon until the date made
available (i) at the Federal Funds Rate for the period ending two Business Days after such LC Advance Date and (ii) at the Base Rate plus 2.00% thereafter; provided, however, that if a Lender has failed to make such an amount available with respect
to a Letter of Credit issued by the Fronting Bank, the Fronting Bank shall make such amount available and provided further that if a Participating Bank has failed to make such an amount available with respect to a Letter of Credit, the Fronting Bank
shall make such amount available. If a Participating Bank fails to make such amount available, it shall pay interest to the Fronting Bank. If the Fronting Bank shall fail to make such amount available, it shall pay such interest to the LC
Administrator and if a Lender fails to make such amount available, it shall pay such interest to the Fronting Bank. A notice of the Administrative Agent submitted to a Lender with respect to amounts owing under Section 2.3(b) shall be
conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, together with interest thereon, such payment to the Administrative Agent shall constitute such Lender’s LC Advance on the LC Advance Date for all purposes of this
Agreement. If such amount, together with interest thereon, is not made available to the Administrative Agent on the Business Day following the LC Advance Date, the Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon
demand by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent for the LC Administrator’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such LC Borrowing, at a rate per annum
equal the Base Rate plus 2.00%. 
  
 (e) The failure of any Lender
to make any LC Advance on any LC Advance Date shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation hereunder to make an LC Advance on such LC Advance Date, and neither the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator nor any Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any LC Advance on any LC Advance Date. Each Lender’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make LC Advances, as contemplated by this Section 2.3, as a result of a drawing
under a Letter of Credit, shall be 

  

 22 

 
absolute and unconditional and without recourse to the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or the LC Administrator and shall not be affected by any
circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator, the Fronting Bank, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason
whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default, an Default or a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided the LC
Administrator shall exercise the same care in examining documents and determining whether or not to honor a Drawing Request as it would exercise if the LC Administrator had Issued such Letter of Credit for its own account. Nothing contained in this
Agreement, and no actions taken by the Lenders, the LC Administrator, the Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto or in connection with a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders, together or with the
Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank and the LC Administrator, a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity. 
  
 SECTION 2.4 Repayment of LC Advances. Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent of immediately available funds from the Borrower in
repayment of any LC Advances, the Administrative Agent (i) shall deduct and retain from such repayment an amount not to exceed the aggregate unreimbursed payments, if any, which were made by the LC Administrator pursuant to the first sentence of
Section 2.3(d), and then (ii) shall pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, such Lender’s Percentage of any funds remaining after giving effect to clause (i) above; provided, that if
the Fronting Bank has advanced funds on behalf of a Lender, the Fronting Bank shall be repaid out of such funds in full before any payment shall be made to such Lender. The Borrower shall repay any LC Advances on the date such LC Advances were made.

  
 SECTION 2.5 Role of the Lenders. Each Lender and the
Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, neither the LC Administrator nor any Issuer shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft and certificate expressly required by such Letter of
Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document; provided that the LC Administrator and the Issuers shall exercise that standard of care
customarily exercised by them in the review and processing of drawings under letters of credit issued by them. 
  
 (a) No Agent-Related Person nor any of their respective correspondents, participants or assignees shall be liable to any Lender for: (i) any action taken
or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders (including the Required Lenders, as applicable); (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due
execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any LC Related Document. 
  
 (b) The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any Beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall
not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the Beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. Neither any Agent-Related Person, any Issuer nor any of their respective correspondents,
participants or 

  

 23 

 
assignees shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vii) of Section 2.6; provided
that, anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator or any Lender, and the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator or any Lender may be liable to the
Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower, in a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, proves were caused primarily by
the Administrative Agent’s or LC Administrator’s or such Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the LC Administrator’s or such Lender’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to
it by the Beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing: (i) the LC Administrator may accept documents that appear on
their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation; and (ii) neither the LC Administrator nor any Issuer shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to
transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 
  
 (c) Concurrently with the issuance by the Fronting Bank of any Letter of Credit and any amendment thereto, the Fronting Bank
shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each other Lender, and each other Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Fronting Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and
participation (a “Risk Participation”), to the extent of such Lender’s Percentage, in such Letter of Credit and the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. 
  
 SECTION 2.6 Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Borrower
under this Agreement and any LC Related Document to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator, the Fronting Bank and the Lenders for a drawing under a Letter of Credit and to repay any LC Borrowing shall be unconditional and
irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each such other L/C-Related Document under all circumstances, including the following: 
  
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any LC Related Document; 
  
 (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of,
or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the LC Related Documents; 
  
 (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other
right that the Borrower may have at any time against any Beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such Beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator, the
Fronting Bank, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by the LC Related Documents or any unrelated transaction; 
  

 24 

 (iv) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of
Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a
drawing under any Letter of Credit; 
  
 (v) any
payment by an Issuer under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the Issuers under any Letter of Credit to any Person
purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any Beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit, including any arising
in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding; 
  
 (vi) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit; or

  
 (vii) any other circumstance or happening
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or a guarantor. 
  
 SECTION 2.7 Continuing Letters of Credit. On and after the Amendment
Effective Date, the Letters of Credit listed on Schedule 2.7 (the “Continuing Letters of Credit”) shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement for all purposes, including for purposes of the fees to be
collected pursuant to Section 2.14 and reimbursement of costs and expenses to the extent provided herein. On the Amendment Effective Date, the Risk Participation of each Lender in the Continuing Letters of Credit which, as shown on
Schedule 2.7, were issued by the Fronting Bank on behalf of the Lenders (the “Fronted Letters of Credit”) shall be equal to each Lender’s Percentage. 
  
 SECTION 2.8 Applicability of ISP98. Unless otherwise agreed by the Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is
issued and subject to applicable laws, the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” (ISP98) or the “Uniform Customs and Practices for Documentary Credits (1993) (ICC Publication 500)” or such later revision as may be
published by the International Chamber of Commerce shall apply to each Letter of Credit. 
  
 SECTION 2.9 Interest. LC Advances shall bear interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable LC
Advance Date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus 2.00% and shall be immediately due and payable. To the extent that any LC Advances are made on an LC Advance Date pursuant to Section 2.3(c) and such LC Advances are repaid
with immediately available funds by the Borrower on the LC Advance Date prior to 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time), no interest shall be payable on such LC Advances. 
  
 (a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrower to any Lender hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that
payments of interest shall not be 

  

 25 

 
required for any period for which interest is computed hereunder to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by
such Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest that may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event the Borrower shall pay such Lender
interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law. 
  
 SECTION 2.10 Payments by the Borrower. 
  
 (a)
All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders
at the Administrative Agent’s Payment Office, and shall be made in dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the
Administrative Agent will promptly distribute, in like funds as received, to each Lender its Percentage of any portion of such payment. Any payment received by the Administrative Agent later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) shall be deemed to have been
received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. 
  
 (b) Whenever any payment is due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the following Business Day (unless such following
Business Day is the first Business Day of a calendar month, in which case such payment shall be made on the preceding Business Day), and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may
be. 
  
 (c) Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from
the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the
Administrative Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due
such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower has not made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon until
the date repaid (i) at the Federal Funds Rate for period commencing on the date such amount is distributed to such Lender and ending two days after demand by the Administrative Agent for such amount and (ii) at the Base Rate plus 2.00% thereafter.

  
 SECTION 2.11 Warranty. The delivery of each Letter of
Credit Application pursuant to Section 2.3 and each request for amendment or extension of an existing Letter of Credit shall automatically constitute a warranty by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and each Lender to the effect that on
the date of such requested Credit Extension that the conditions of Section 8.2 have been satisfied. 
  
 SECTION 2.12 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower may, upon not less than five Business Days’ prior notice to the
Administrative Agent, terminate the Commitments, or permanently reduce the Commitments by an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 or any multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; unless, after giving effect thereto and 

  

 26 

 
to any prepayments or cash collateralization of LC Obligations to be made on the effective date thereof, (i) the LC Obligations would exceed the amount of
the Total Commitments then in effect, (ii) the Tranche A Obligations would exceed the Tranche A Borrowing Base, or (iii) the Tranche B Obligations would exceed the Tranche B Borrowing Base. Once reduced in accordance with this Section, the
Commitments may not be increased. Any reduction of the Commitments shall be applied to each Lender according to its Percentage; provided that the Tranche A Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than ten times the Tranche B Commitments.

  
 SECTION 2.13 Mandatory Reduction/Cash Collateralization of
Letters of Credit. 
  
 (a) If on any day (i) the Tranche A LC
Obligations exceed the combined Tranche A Commitments on such day or the Tranche A LC Obligations exceed the Tranche A Borrowing Base on such day, the Borrower shall immediately deposit into the Custody Account Eligible Investments or reduce the
Tranche A LC Obligations, or a combination of the foregoing, in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess or (ii) the Tranche B LC Obligations exceed the combined Tranche B Commitments on such day or the Tranche B LC Obligations exceed the
Tranche B Borrowing Base on such day, the Borrower shall immediately deposit into the Custody Account Eligible Investments and/or MDS Shares or reduce the Tranche B LC Obligations, or a combination of the foregoing, in an amount sufficient to
eliminate such excess or (iii) the Total Outstanding Amount exceeds the Total Commitments on such day, the Borrower shall immediately deposit into the Custody Account Eligible Investments and/or to the extent that Tranche B Obligations exceed the
Tranche B Borrowing Base, MDS Shares or reduce the Tranche A LC Obligations or reduce the Tranche B LC Obligations, or a combination of the foregoing, in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. 
  
 (b) On the Final Maturity Date or, if earlier, the date the Obligations are
accelerated pursuant to Section 7.2, and until the final expiration date of any Letter of Credit and thereafter so long as any Obligations are payable hereunder, the Borrower shall immediately cash collateralize such Letters of Credit with
Cash and Cash Equivalents in an amount equal to 102% of the outstanding LC Obligations and such collateral shall be placed in a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the “LC Collateral
Account”) at the Administrative Agent’s office in the name of the Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the LC Administrator and the Lenders and the Borrower shall have no
interest therein except as set forth in Section 7.3. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the LC Administrator and the Lenders, a security interest in all of the Borrower’s
right, title and interest in and to the LC Collateral Account, all funds and Cash Equivalents which may from time to time be on deposit in the LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations. The
Administrative Agent may invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the LC Collateral Account in Cash Equivalents having a maturity not exceeding 30 days. Funds earned on such Cash Equivalents shall be deposited into the LC Collateral Account.

 SECTION 2.14 Fees. 
  
 (a) Agency Fees. The Borrower shall pay fees to the Administrative Agent for the Administrative Agent’s own
account, as required by the letter agreement (“Fee Letter”) between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent dated May 4, 2004 and as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree from time to time. 
  
 (b) Non-Use Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of each Lender a non-use fee on the actual daily unused portion of such Lender’s Commitment, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon the daily utilization for that
quarter as calculated by the Administrative Agent, equal to (i) 0.10% per annum on an amount equal to (x) the Total Commitments minus (y) the Tranche A LC Obligations minus (z) the Tranche B Commitment and (ii) 0.20% per annum on an
amount equal to (x) the lesser of (A) the Tranche B Commitment and (B) (the Total Commitments minus the Tranche A LC Obligations) minus (y) the Tranche B LC Obligations. Such non-use fee shall accrue from the Amendment Effective Date
to the Commitment Termination Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December commencing on June 30, 2004 through the Commitment Termination Date, with the final payment to
be made on the Commitment Termination Date. The non-use fees provided in this Section shall accrue at all times after the above-mentioned commencement date, including at any time during which one or more conditions in Article VIII are not
met. On the Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders all non-use fees accrued under the Existing Credit Agreement through the Amendment Effective Date. 
  
 (c) Letter of Credit Fees. 
  
 (i) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender a letter of credit fee for each Letter of Credit requested by the Borrower in an amount per annum of the average maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit during such period (less any LC Advance with respect thereto)
equal to (x) 0.325% per annum with respect to Tranche A Letters of Credit and (y) 0.95% per annum with respect to Tranche B Letters of Credit; provided that a portion of the letter of credit fee equal to 0.125% per annum otherwise payable to each
Participating Bank shall be payable to the Fronting Bank with respect to Letters of Credit for which a fee is not paid to the Fronting Bank pursuant to Section 2.14(c)(ii). Such letter of credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in
arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December commencing on June 30, 2004 through the Final Maturity Date with the
final payment to be made on the Final Maturity Date. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each of the Lenders any letter of credit fees accrued under the Existing Credit Agreement through the Amendment Effective
Date. 
  
 (ii) In addition, with respect to each
Letter of Credit issued by the Fronting Bank, the Borrower shall pay to the Fronting Bank a fronting fee in an amount per annum on the average maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit during such period (less any LC Advance with respect
thereto) equal to 0.125% per annum. Such fronting fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each 

  

 28 

 
March, June, September and December commencing on June 30, 2004 through the Final Maturity Date with the final payment to be made on the Final Maturity Date.
On the Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Fronting Bank all fronting fees accrued under the Existing Credit Agreement through the Amendment Effective Date. 
  
 (iii) In addition, with respect to each Letter of Credit requested by the Borrower or any amendment or
extension thereof, the Borrower agrees to pay to the LC Administrator such fees and expenses as the LC Administrator customarily requires in connection with the issuance, amendment, transfer, negotiation, processing and/or administration of letters
of credit. 
  
 (d) Upfront Fees. On the Amendment Effective
Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, such upfront fees as may have been agreed to by the Borrower and such Lender. 
  
 SECTION 2.15 Computation of Fees and Interest. 
  
 (a) All computations of fees shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest on LC Advances
shall be computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof. 
  
 (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent shall
be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. 
  
 (c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrower to any Lender hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required for any period for which
interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by such Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest that
may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event the Borrower shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law. 
  
 SECTION 2.16 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain
on account of the LC Obligations any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its Percentage, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact,
and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Obligations held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or
any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an
amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount
paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by 

  

 29 

 
law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 10.10) with respect to such participation as fully as
if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this
Section and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. 
  
 SECTION 2.17 Commitment Termination Date Extension. 
  
 (a) The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not more than 45 days and not less than 30 days prior to the then scheduled Commitment Termination Date, request that the Lenders extend the Commitment
Termination Date for 364 days after the then scheduled Commitment Termination Date and extend the Final Maturity Date for one year after the then scheduled Final Maturity Date. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of its receipt of any
notice (the “Extension Request Date”) given pursuant to this Section 2.17(a) within two Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. Each Lender (a “Consenting Lender”) may, by
irrevocable notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent not later than 30 days after the Extension Request Date (the “Consent Period”), consent to such extension of the
Commitment Termination Date and the Final Maturity Date, which consent may be given or withheld by each Lender in its absolute and sole discretion. Subject to Section 2.17(c), any such extensions shall take effect on and as of the then
scheduled Commitment Termination Date. 
  
 (b) Withdrawing
Lenders. No extension pursuant to Section 2.17(a) shall be effective with respect to a Lender that either (i) by a notice (a “Withdrawal Notice”) delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, declines to consent
to such extension or (ii) has failed to respond to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent within the Consent Period (each such Lender giving a Withdrawal Notice or failing to respond in a timely manner being “Withdrawing
Lender”). 
  
 (c) Replacement of Withdrawing
Lender. The Borrower shall have the right during the 45 day period following the end of the Consent Period to replace the Withdrawing Lender with an existing Lender or a new Lender who consents to the extension of the Commitment Termination Date
(a “Replacement Lender”). In the event the Borrower has not replaced the Withdrawing Lender within said 45 day period, the Borrower may request the Consenting Lenders to reduce the Commitments by the amount of the Withdrawing
Lender’s Commitment and extend the Commitment Termination Date and the Final Maturity Date which consent may be given or withheld by each Consenting Lender in its sole discretion. In the event all of the Consenting Lenders agree to such
reduction and extension then, subject to compliance with Section 2.2, on and as of the then scheduled Commitment Termination Date (x) the Commitment shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Commitment of the unreplaced Withdrawing Lender,
(y) such Withdrawing Lender shall cease to be a Lender under this Agreement and (z) the Commitment Termination Date and the Final Maturity Date shall be extended. In the event the Withdrawing Lender has not been replaced or all of the Consenting
Lenders have not consented to reduction of the Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.17(c), the Commitment Termination Date and the Final Maturity Date shall not be extended. 
  

 30 

 (d) Assignment by Withdrawing Lender. A Withdrawing Lender shall be obliged, at the request of the
Borrower and subject to the Withdrawing Lender receiving payment in full of all amounts owing to it under this Agreement concurrently with the effectiveness of an assignment, to assign, without recourse or warranty and by an Assignment and
Acceptance, all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any Replacement Lender nominated by the Borrower and willing to accept such assignment; provided that such assignee satisfies all the requirements of this Agreement and such
assignment is consented to by the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably. 
  
 (e) Scheduled Commitment Termination Date. If the scheduled Commitment Termination Date and the Final Maturity Date shall have been extended in
respect of Consenting Lenders and any Replacement Lender in accordance with Section 2.17(a), all references herein to the “Commitment Termination Date” and the “Final Maturity Date” shall refer to the Commitment
Termination Date or the Final Maturity Date as so extended. 
  
 SECTION 2.18 Optional Increase in LC Commitments. The Borrower may at any time, by means of a letter to the Administrative Agent and each Lender substantially in the form of Exhibit F, request that the Lenders increase the
Total Commitments by $10,000,000 or an even multiple thereof; provided that (i) such letter shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Borrower as to resolutions of the board of directors of the
Borrower approving such increase, (ii) in no event shall the Total Commitments exceed $400,000,000 (or such lesser amount as determined pursuant Section 2.12) without the written consent of all Lenders, (iii) such increase shall either be an
increase of the Tranche A Commitments or shall be a pro rata increase of the Tranche A Commitments and the Tranche B Commitments and (iv) after giving effect to any such increase, the Tranche B Commitments shall not be more than 10% of the Total
Commitments. Each Lender shall have the option (in its sole and complete discretion) to subscribe for its proportionate share (or more or less than its proportionate share) of such increase, according to its then-existing Percentage. Each Lender
shall respond to the Borrower’s request within 20 Business Days by submitting a response in the form of Attachment 1 to Exhibit F to the Administrative Agent (and any Lender not responding within such period shall be deemed to have
declined such request). At the option of the Borrower, any part of the proposed increase not proportionately subscribed may be assumed, within 10 Business Days after all Lenders have responded to (or, by not responding, are deemed to have declined)
such request, by one or more existing Lenders and/or by one or more Persons meeting the qualifications of an Eligible Assignee, in amounts which are acceptable to the Borrower; it being understood that any assumption by a Person which is not an
existing Lender shall be subject to consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) provided that after giving effect to any such increase, each Lender shall have the same percentage under the
Tranche A Commitments and the Tranche B Commitments. Any increase in the combined Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall become effective on the earliest to occur of (a) the date on which the proposed increase has been fully
subscribed and (b) the date, which shall not be earlier than the date on which all Lenders have responded to (or are deemed to have declined) the Borrower’s request for an increase, on which the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that
the Borrower accepts an increase in the combined Commitments which is less than the full amount of the requested increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any increase in the amount of the Total
Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.18 and of the Commitments and Percentage of each Lender after giving effect thereto. 
  

 31 

 ARTICLE III. 
  
 TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
  
 SECTION 3.1 Taxes. 
  
 (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower to each Lender, the Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and any other Credit Document
shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes except as required by law. In addition, the Borrower shall pay all Other Taxes. 
  
 (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the LC Administrator, the Fronting Bank, each Lender and the
Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Lenders, the Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent and any
liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within
30 days after the date such Lender, the Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor. 
  
 (c) If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender,
the Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent, provided that such Person has provided the forms required in Section 9.10, then: 
  
 (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions
and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) such Lender, the Fronting Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or
withholdings been made; 
  
 (ii) the Borrower
shall make such deductions and withholdings; 
  
 (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law; and 
  
 (iv) the Borrower shall also pay, without duplication, each Lender, the Fronting Bank or the Administrative
Agent for the account of such Person, at the time interest is paid, all additional amounts which such Person specifies as reasonably necessary to preserve the after-tax yield such Person would have received if such Taxes or Other Taxes had not been
imposed. 
  
 (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by
the Borrower of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
  

 32 

 (e) If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender, the Fronting Bank or the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.1(c), then such Person shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as to eliminate any such additional payment
by the Borrower which may thereafter accrue, if such change in the judgment of such Person is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Person or inconsistent with such Person’s internal policies. 
  
 (f) If the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or any Lender receives a
refund in respect of Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.1, which in the good faith judgment of such Person is allocable to such payment, it shall promptly pay such refund to the Borrower, net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of such Person incurred in obtaining such refund, provided, however, that the Borrower agrees to promptly return such refund to the applicable Person if it receives notice from such Person that such Person is required to repay
such refund. Nothing contained herein shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) available to the Borrower. 
  
 SECTION 3.2 Illegality. 
  
 (a) If the Fronting Bank or any Lender determines that the introduction of
any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or administration of any Requirement of Law, in each case after the date hereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority
has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Fronting Bank or any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make or participate in any Credit Extensions, then, on notice thereof by the Fronting Bank or such Lender to the Borrower through the
Administrative Agent, the obligation of all Lenders to make or participate in Credit Extensions shall be suspended until the Fronting Bank or such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such
determination no longer exist. 
  
 (b) Before giving any notice to
the Administrative Agent under this Section, the Fronting Bank or the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its Credit Extensions if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such
demand and will not, in the judgment of such Person, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Person or inconsistent with such Person’s internal policies. 
  
 SECTION 3.3 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return. 
  
 (a) If the Fronting Bank or any Lender determines that, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the
interpretation of any law or regulation, in each case after the date hereof, or (ii) the compliance by the Fronting Bank or Lender with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force
of law) after the date hereof, there shall be any increase in the cost to the Fronting Bank or such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Credit Extensions, then the Borrower 

  

 33 

 
shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand (with a copy of such demand to be sent to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Fronting Bank or such Lender, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased costs; provided that, to the extent such increased costs are not specifically related to the Obligations,
the Fronting Bank or such Lender is charging such amounts to its customers on a non-discriminatory basis, provided further that the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts which were incurred by the Fronting Bank or such Lender
more than 90 days prior to the date of such request. 
  
 (b) If
the Fronting Bank or any Lender shall have determined that (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy
Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or (iv) compliance by the Fronting Bank or such Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling the Fronting Bank
or such Lender with any Capital Adequacy Regulation, in each case after the date hereof, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Fronting Bank or such Lender or any corporation controlling the
Fronting Bank or such Lender and (taking into consideration the Fronting Bank’s or such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and the Fronting Bank’s or such Lender’s desired return on
capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased or its rate of return is decreased as a consequence of its Commitment, Credit Extensions, or obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of the Fronting Bank or such Lender to
the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall pay to the Fronting Bank or such Lender, from time to time as specified by the Fronting Bank or such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Fronting Bank or such
Lender for such increase; provided that to the extent such increased costs are not specifically related to the Obligations, the Fronting Bank or such Lender is charging such amounts to its customers on a non-discriminatory basis, provided further
that the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts which were incurred by the Fronting Bank or such Lender more than 90 days prior to the date of such request. 
  
 SECTION 3.4 Certificates of Lenders. Any Person claiming reimbursement or compensation under this Article III
shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to such Person hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence
of manifest error. 
  
 SECTION 3.5 Substitution of Lenders.
Upon the receipt by the Borrower from the Fronting Bank or any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) of a claim for compensation under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.3 the Borrower may: (a) request the Affected Lender to use its
reasonable efforts to obtain a replacement bank or financial institution satisfactory to the Borrower to acquire and assume all or a ratable part of all of such Affected Lender’s Credit Extensions and Commitment (a “Substitute
Lender”); (b) request one more of the other Lenders to acquire and assume all or part of such Affected Lender’s Credit Extensions and Commitment; or (c) designate a Substitute Lender. Any such designation of a Substitute Lender under
clause (a) or (b) shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 
  

 34 

 SECTION 3.6 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Borrower in this Article III shall
survive the payment of all other Obligations. 
  
 ARTICLE IV.

 (i) Warranties and Representations. Any
warranty or representation made by or on behalf of the Borrower herein or in any Credit Document is inaccurate or incorrect or is breached 

  

 46 

 
or false or misleading in any material respect as of the date such warranty or representation is made; or any schedule, certificate, financial statement,

of the outstanding LC Obligations all without notice of any kind; and, in the case of any other Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the written request of the Required Lenders shall, terminate the Commitments hereunder and
declare all or any portion of the Obligations to be due and payable, and/or demand that the Borrower immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash and Cash Equivalents in an amount equal to 102% of the outstanding LC Obligations whereupon the
Commitments shall terminate and all or such portion of the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, and/or demand that the Borrower immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash and Cash Equivalents in an amount equal to the
outstanding LC Obligations all without further notice of any kind. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Borrower of any such declaration but failure to do so shall not impair the effect of such declaration. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the effect as an Event of Default of any event described in Section 7.1(a) may not be waived except by consent of all of the Lenders and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent in writing. 
  
 SECTION 7.3 LC Collateral Account. 
  
 (a) If at any time after the Borrower has been required to deposit amounts
in the LC Collateral Account pursuant to Section 2.13, the Administrative Agent determines that the 

  

 47 

 
amount on deposit in the LC Collateral Account is less than the amount of the outstanding LC Obligations at such time, the Administrative Agent may demand
the Borrower to deposit, and the Borrower shall, upon such demand and without any further notice, pay to the Administrative Agent for deposit in the LC Collateral Account, funds necessary to cure any shortfall. 
  
 (b) The Administrative Agent may, at any time or from time to time, after
funds are deposited in the LC Collateral Account apply such funds to the payment of the Obligations then due and payable by the Borrower to the Fronting Bank, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents. 
  
 (c) Neither the Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the
Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the LC Collateral Account until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, the Commitments have been terminated and all Letters of Credit have been terminated or
expired, at which time any funds remaining in the LC Collateral Account shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower.

 ARTICLE IX. 
  
 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
  
 SECTION 9.1 Appointment and Authorization. 
  
 (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 9.9) appoints,
designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Credit Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the
terms of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Credit Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (b) The LC Administrator shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by the Lenders and
the documents associated therewith and shall have all of the benefit and immunities provided to the Agent in this Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such LC Administrator in connection with Letters of Credit
issued by the Lenders or proposed to be issued by the Lenders and the application and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Article IX,
included the LC Administrator with respect to such acts or omissions. 
  
 SECTION 9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Credit Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of
counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care. 
  
 SECTION 9.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. None of the
Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence
or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any 

  

 50 

 
manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Borrower or Affiliate of the Borrower, or any officer
thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or
any other Credit Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or for any failure of the Borrower or any other party to any Credit Document to perform its
obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Administrative Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this
Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates. 
  
 SECTION 9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 
  
 (a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent,
certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon
advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action
under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (and all the Lenders if required pursuant to Section 10.1) as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it
shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully
protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be
binding upon all of the Lenders. 
  
 (b) For purposes of
determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 8.1, each Lender that has executed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by
the Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Lender. 
  
 SECTION 9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be
deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of LC Advances, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the LC
Administrator, the Fronting Bank or the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice
is a “notice of default”. The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the
Required Lenders in accordance with Article VII; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such request, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders. 
  

 51 

 SECTION 9.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has
made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person
to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision
to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as
to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative
Agent, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the
Borrower which may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons. 
  
 SECTION 9.7 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf
of the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), pro rata, from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to the Agent-Related
Persons of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its
ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through
negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative
Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent. 
  
 SECTION 9.8 Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. BofA and its
Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Borrower and
its Affiliates as though BofA were not the Administrative Agent or the LC Administrator hereunder and without notice to or consent of the 

  

 52 

 
Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, BofA or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or its Affiliates
(including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Credit
Extensions, BofA shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent or the LC Administrator, and the terms “Lender” and
“Lenders” include BofA in its individual capacity. 
  
 SECTION 9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent resigns
under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders which successor agent shall be approved by the Borrower. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the Amendment Effective Date of
the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder,
such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment,
powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.4 and 10.5 shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a
retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder
until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, BofA may not be removed as the Administrative Agent unless BofA shall also simultaneously be replaced as
“LC Administrator” hereunder pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to BofA. 
  
 SECTION 9.10 Withholding Tax. Each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (i) represents and warrants that on the date hereof (or, if later,
the date it becomes a party to this Agreement) that under applicable law and treaties no U.S. withholding tax will be required to be withheld with respect to any payments to be made by the Borrower hereunder, (ii) agrees to furnish to the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower on or before the first scheduled payment date after the Amendment Effective Date, a United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN and W-9 or Form W-8ECI and W-8, as appropriate (or successor forms) properly
completed and executed and (iii) agrees to comply with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations with regard to such withholding tax exemption. 
  
 (a) If any Lender claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty by providing IRS Form W-8BEN and such Lender
sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender, such Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial
owner of Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender. To the extent of such percentage amount, the Administrative Agent will treat such Lender’s IRS Form 1001 as no longer valid. 
  

 53 

 (b) If any Lender claiming exemption from United States withholding tax by filing IRS Form W-8EC1 with
the Administrative Agent sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender, such Lender agrees to undertake sole responsibility for complying with the withholding tax
requirements imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code. 
  
 (c) If any Lender is entitled to a reduction in the applicable withholding tax, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account
such reduction. If the forms or other documentation required by Section 9.10 (a) are not delivered to the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender not providing such forms or
other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax. 
  
 (d) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any
Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax
ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes
imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section, together with all costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs). The obligation of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the payment of all
Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent. 
  
 SECTION 9.11 Co-Agents. None of the Lenders identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “co-agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or
duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified as a “co-agent” shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender.
Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 
  
 ARTICLE X. 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 SECTION 10.1 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, and no consent with
respect to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent at the written request of the Required Lenders) and the Borrower and
acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and then any such 

  

 54 

 
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no
such waiver, amendment, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders and the Borrower and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, do any of the following: 
  
 (a) increase or extend the Commitment to issue Letters of Credit or the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any
Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 7.2) or extend the expiry date of any Letter of Credit to a date after the Final Maturity Date; 
  
 (b) postpone or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Credit Document for any payment of LC Advances, interest, fees or other amounts due to
the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Credit Document; 
  
 (c) reduce the amount of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Reimbursement Obligation, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document; 
  
 (d) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of the LC Obligations which is required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder; 
  
 (e) release the Security Agreement or release all or a substantial part of the Collateral granted thereunder except in accordance with the terms thereof;
or 
  
 (f) amend this Section, or any provision herein providing
for consent or other action by all Lenders; 
  
 and, provided
further, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Required Lenders or all the Lenders, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent
under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and no amendment of any provision relating to the LC Administrator shall be effective without the written consent of the LC Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing the Fee Letter may be amended,
or rights of privileges thereunder waived, in writing, executed by the parties thereto. 
  
 SECTION 10.2 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications shall be in writing (including, unless the context expressly otherwise provides, by facsimile transmission, provided that any matter
transmitted by the Borrower by facsimile (i) shall be immediately confirmed by a telephone call to the recipient at the number specified on Schedule 10.2, and (ii) shall be followed promptly by delivery of a hard copy original thereof) and
mailed, faxed or delivered, to the address or facsimile number specified for notices on Schedule 10.2; or, as directed to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice
to the other parties, and as directed to any other party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (a) All such notices, requests and communications shall, when transmitted by overnight delivery, or faxed, be effective when
delivered for overnight (next-day) delivery, or transmitted in legible form by facsimile machine, respectively, or, if delivered, upon delivery, except that notices pursuant to Article II or IX shall not be effective until actually
received by the Administrative Agent and/or the LC Administrator, as applicable. 
  

 55 

 (b) Any agreement of the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator and the Lenders herein to receive
certain notices by telephone or facsimile is solely for the convenience and at the request of the Borrower. The Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a
Person authorized by the Borrower to give such notice and the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator and the Lenders shall not have any liability to the Borrower or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Administrative
Agent, the LC Administrator or the Lenders in reliance upon such telephonic or facsimile notice. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure by the Administrative Agent,
the LC Administrator and the Lenders to receive written confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or the receipt by the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator and the Lenders of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms
understood by the Administrative Agent, the LC Administrator and the Lenders to be contained in the telephonic or facsimile notice. 
  
 SECTION 10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, the LC
Administrator or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. 
  
 SECTION 10.4 Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall: 
  
 (a) whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, pay or reimburse BofA (including in its capacity as Administrative Agent and LC Administrator) within ten Business Days after demand for all costs and expenses
incurred by BofA (including in its capacity as Administrative Agent and LC Administrator), in connection with the negotiation, preparation, delivery, syndication, administration and execution of, and any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification
to (in each case, whether or not consummated), this Agreement, any Credit Document and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including reasonable
Attorney Costs incurred by BofA (including in its capacity as Administrative Agent) with respect thereto; and 
  
 (b) pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the LC Administrator within ten Business Days after demand for all costs and expenses
(including Attorney Costs) incurred by them in connection with the enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or any other Credit Document during the existence of an Event of Default or after
acceleration of the Obligations (including in connection with any “workout” or restructuring regarding the Obligations, and including in any insolvency proceeding or appellate proceeding) provided that the parties shall to the extent of
common interests use a single counsel. 
  

 56 

 SECTION 10.5 Indemnity. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the
Borrower shall indemnify and hold the Agent-Related Persons and each Lender and each of its respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time (including at any
time following repayment of the Obligations and the termination, resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or replacement of any Lender) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Person in any way relating to or arising
out of this Agreement or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, or the transactions contemplated hereby, or any action taken or omitted by any such Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing, including with respect to any
investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any Insolvency Proceeding or appellate proceeding) related to or arising out of this Agreement or the Credit Extensions or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a
party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. The agreements in this Section shall survive payment of all other Obligations. 
  
 SECTION 10.6 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment to the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or the Lenders, or
the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or the Lenders exercise their right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or
required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding 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 set-off had not occurred, and
(b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its Percentage of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent. 
  
 SECTION 10.7 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the
Fronting Bank and each Lender. 
  
 SECTION 10.8 Assignments,
Participations, etc. 
  
 (a) Any Lender may, with the written
consent of the Borrower (at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default) and the Administrative Agent, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, and the Fronting Bank, at any time assign and delegate to one or more
Eligible Assignees (provided that no written consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required in connection with any assignment and delegation by a Lender to an Eligible Assignee that is an Affiliate of such Lender) (each an
“Assignee”) all, or any ratable part 

  

 57 

 
of all, of the LC Obligations, the Commitments and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder, provided, however, that (w) the
aggregate principal amount of the Commitment assigned by any Lender to someone other than another Lender shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (or if less, the entire Commitment then held by such Lender), (x) after giving effect to any such
assignment by a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitments and/or LC Obligations held by such assigning Lender is at least $5,000,000 (unless such Lender has assigned the entire Commitment and LC Obligations then held by it), (y) after giving
effect to any such assignment by a Lender, the Assignee Percentage under the Tranche A Commitment and Tranche B Commitment is the same and the Percentage of the assignor Lender under the Tranche A Commitment and the Tranche B Commitment is the same,
and (z) the Assignee provides the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with the form specified in Section 9.10. The Borrower and the Administrative Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the
interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall have been given to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
by such Lender and the Assignee; (ii) such Lender and its Assignee shall have delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit C (“Assignment and Acceptance”) and
(iii) the assignor Lender or Assignee has paid to the Administrative Agent a processing fee in the amount of $3,500. 
  
 (b) From and after the date that the Administrative Agent notifies the assignor Lender that it has received (and provided its consent with respect to) an
executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the above-referenced processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment
and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Credit Documents, and (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents have been assigned by it
pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under the Credit Documents. 
  
 (c) Immediately upon each Assignee’s making its processing fee payment under the Assignment and Acceptance, this Agreement shall be deemed to be
amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the
assigning Lender pro tanto. 
  
 (d) Any Lender may
at any time sell to one or more commercial banks or other Persons not Affiliates of the Borrower (a “Participant”) participating interests in any LC Obligations, the Commitment of that Lender and the other interests of that Lender
(the “originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Credit Documents; provided, however, that (i) the originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the originating Lender
shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the originating Lender in connection with the originating Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to,
this Agreement or any other Credit Document, except to the extent such 

  

 58 

 
amendment, consent or waiver would require unanimous consent of the Lenders as described in the first proviso to Section 10.1. In the
case of any such participation, the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 3.1, 3.3 and 10.5 to the extent the Lender selling such participation would be so entitled as though it were also a Lender hereunder,
and if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect
of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement. All participations shall be pro rata among such
Lender’s Tranche A Commitment and Tranche B Commitment. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement and any LC Obligation held by it in favor
of any Federal Reserve Lender in accordance with Regulation A of the FRB or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.14, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

  
 SECTION 10.9 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to
take and to cause its Affiliates to take normal and reasonable precautions and exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all information identified as “confidential” or “secret” by the Borrower and provided to it by
the Borrower, or by the Administrative Agent on such Borrower’s behalf, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document (“Information”), and neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall use any Information other than in connection
with or in enforcement of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents or in connection with other business now or hereafter existing or contemplated with the Borrower; except to the extent Information (a) was or becomes generally available to the
public other than as a result of disclosure by the Lender, or (b) was or becomes available on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Borrower
known to the Lender; provided, however, that any Lender may disclose Information (i) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority to which the Lender is subject or in connection with an examination of
such Lender by any such authority; (ii) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (iii) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (iv) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any
litigation or proceeding to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender or their respective Affiliates may be party; (v) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Credit Document;
(vi) to such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors; (vii) to any Participant or Assignee, actual or potential, provided that such Person agrees in writing to keep Information confidential to the same extent required of
the Lenders hereunder; (viii) as to any Lender or its Affiliate, as expressly permitted under the terms of any other document or agreement regarding confidentiality to which the Borrower is party or is deemed party with such Lender or such
Affiliate; and (ix) to its Affiliates which are either such Lender’s parent or it or its parent’s wholly owned Subsidiary or, with the prior written consent of the Borrower which shall not be unreasonably withheld, its other Affiliates.

  
 SECTION 10.10 Set-off. In addition to any rights and
remedies of the Lenders provided by law, if an Event of Default exists or the Obligations have been accelerated, the Fronting Bank 

  

 59 

 
and each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrower to the
fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, the Fronting Bank and such Lender to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all Obligations owing to the Fronting Bank and such Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent the Fronting Bank and such Lender shall have made
demand under this Agreement or any Credit Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. The Fronting Bank and each Lender agree promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and
application made by such Person; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
  
 SECTION 10.11 Notification of Addresses, Lending Offices, Etc. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in
writing of any changes in the address to which notices to the Lender should be directed, of addresses of any Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such other administrative information
as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. 
  
 SECTION
10.12 Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but
one and the same instrument. Credit Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to any Requirement of Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals
and shall be binding on the Borrower, the Lenders, the Fronting Bank, the Administrative Agent and the LC Administrator. The Administrative Agent, the Fronting Bank and the LC Administrator may also require that any such documents and signatures be
confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature. 
  
 SECTION 10.13 Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any
provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

  
 SECTION 10.14 No Third Parties Benefitted. This
Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower, the LC Administrator, the Fronting Bank, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Agent-Related Persons, and their permitted successors and assigns,
and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents. 
  
 SECTION 10.15 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. 
  
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH,
THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK PROVIDED THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE LC ADMINISTRATOR AND THE LENDERS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW. 
  

 60 

 (b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT MAY BE
BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE FRONTING BANK, THE LC ADMINISTRATOR
AND THE LENDERS CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE FRONTING BANK, THE LC ADMINISTRATOR AND THE LENDERS IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY
OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY
DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO. THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE FRONTING BANK, THE LC ADMINISTRATOR AND THE LENDERS EACH WAIVE PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS AND IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS BY
REGISTERED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID OR BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY NEW YORK OR FEDERAL LAW. 
  
 SECTION 10.16 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE BORROWER, THE LC ADMINISTRATOR, THE FRONTING BANK, THE LENDERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF
ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY
OTHER PARTY OR ANY AGENT-RELATED PERSON, PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. THE BORROWER, THE LC ADMINISTRATOR, THE FRONTING BANK, THE LENDERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT EACH AGREE THAT ANY
SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION,
COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS,
RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS. 
  
 SECTION 10.17 Currency Indemnity. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to any Credit Document, it becomes necessary to convert into the currency of such
jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount due under any 

  

 61 

 
Credit Document in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”), then conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange
prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For this purpose, “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Administrative Agent is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment
Currency in accordance with its normal practice at its main branch in San Francisco, California. In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the
date of payment of the amount due, the Borrower will, on the day of payment, pay such additional amount, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid on such date is the
amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment is the amount then due under any Credit Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due which the Administrative Agent is
so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, the Borrower shall indemnify and save the Administrative Agent harmless from and against loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity
shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in any Credit Document, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the
Administrative Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under any Credit Document or under any judgment or order. 
  
 SECTION 10.18 Service of Process. On or prior to the Amendment
Effective Date, the Borrower shall appoint CT Corporation System (the “Process Agent”), with an office on the date hereof at 111 8th Avenue, New York, New York 10011, United States, as its agent to receive on its behalf and its property
service of copies of the summons and complaints and any other process which may be served in any such action or proceeding, provided that a copy of such process is also mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at its
address specified pursuant to Section 10.2. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the Borrower in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent’s above address, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably
authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Process Agent in connection with all matters relating to its appointment as agent of the Borrower for such purposes, to enter into
any agreement relating to such appointment which such Process Agent may customarily require, and to pay such Process Agent’s customary fees upon demand. As an alternative method of service, the Borrower also irrevocably consents to the service
of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to the Borrower at its address specified pursuant to Section 10.2. Nothing in this Section 10.18 shall affect the right of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to bring any action or proceeding against the Borrower, or any of its properties in the
courts of any other jurisdiction. 
  
 SECTION 10.19 Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Credit Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the Borrower, the LC Administrator, the Fronting Bank, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and supersedes all prior
or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.
